About: Hi! My name is Briannah Fritzinger, I am 21 and I'm a full-time at-home pet sitter here in Selma, Texas. I am currently pursuing pet sitting full-time, so your pets will have a calm, present, and attentive caregiver with them throughout the day. I have over 6 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals like hamsters, fish, and lizards . I'm comfortable with handling puppies, kittens, seniors, and pets who need medication or extra patience. I offer boarding, daycare, drop-ins, and walks, with potty breaks every 2-4 hours and lots of photo updates. I am available 7 days a week, including weekends and holidays, from 8am to 5pm for scheduled care, with extended availability for boarding and emergencies. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I currently have 4 cats of my own, so my day is built around feeding, cleaning, and playtime. I have a very flexible schedule, so I'm available for morning, midday, and evening drop-ins, walks, and overnights during the week and on weekends. In your home, I keep your pet's routine exactly the same — feeding times, walks for dogs, habitat temps and humidity checks, as well as safe handling for all. As well as litter box cleanings.I do a meet-and-greet first to learn their setup, emergency contacts, and vet info, and I always keep doors, gates, and enclosures secured. In my home, I only board cats. I have a clean, cat-friendly space with 4 of my own cats. Boards would be separate from my cats and have their own clean space and environment to be in!

About: What sets me apart is the combination of a genuinely flexible schedule, a safe fenced home environment, and two friendly resident dogs who help new pets settle in quickly and feel less anxious. I'm patient and attentive with dogs of all ages and energy levels—comfortable with the extra patience senior dogs often need (mobility, medication reminders, gentler walks) as well as the consistency and structure young or newly-trained pups thrive on. I treat every pet like my own, prioritize their normal routine, and communicate closely with owners throughout their stay. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I have a flexible schedule. I build my days around consistent feeding times, walks, and playtime, so your pet gets reliable attention whenever they need it—morning, midday, or evening. My home has a fenced yard and two friendly dogs for safe, supervised play. I closely monitor interactions, follow your pet's routine, and can crate them if needed for comfort.

About: I’ve had puppies all through my childhood but it was until I became the sole provider for my puppy in 2012 did I learn how loving the connection can be with a pet. My dog had to be put down in 2017 and I haven’t been able to “replace” him. Rover.com will at least keep the warm love of dogs within my life until I’m ready to find another puppy of my own! I love all types of dogs and I’m excited to see what kind of cool breeds I may encounter while working with Rover. I would love to help ease the stress and worry that owners experience while away from their furry babies! I will love to treat your dog like my own. I’m currently out of work which is a good thing for those seeking a full time pet sitter! I have open availability and I am willing to walk your pet check in or stay in home to accommodate your pet needs. I follow your instructions in detail when pet sitting either at your home or mine. I have a vehicle and I can take you pet to a park if you like or just run around with them in your home lol. I’m pretty energetic so have a pet pal to play with is ideal. Ideally I like to take smaller breed dogs in my home but if you have a well mannered big boy/girl I don’t mind them in my home neither. I have a back yard they can use to relieve themselves and there is a big park by my home!

About: Hi! I’ve been around animals my whole life and have always loved caring for them. Growing up, my family had dogs, cats, and even a raccoon and squirrel for a little while thanks to my grandma lol! So I’m definitely comfortable around all kinds of personalities and energy levels! Right now, my boyfriend and I have two cats and a dog of our own, so caring for pets is a big part of my everyday life. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies, and I’d love to help give them the same love, attention, and care I give my own pets. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or just having someone around to make them feel safe and comfortable, I’m happy to help. I’ll always treat your pets like family! I recently left my full time job to pursue my teaching certification, so I have pretty open availability based on your needs! I will be sure to keep my calendar up to date as well. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and lots of attention and affection. I know every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I always try to match their needs and energy. I’m also happy to give updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pets are happy and cared for while you’re away. Since I have pets of my own, I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your fur babies.

About: I have cared for animals as long as I can remember. I rescued my two dogs and have saved and rehomed several dogs and cats since then. My schedule is fairly flexible, I work mostly from home. Im able to provide pet care around my work schedule. I can do drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine. I live in an apartment with access to a private dog park where residents respect the time and space of other dogs. This gives dogs a safe, controlled space to exercise and play without having to worry about other dogs. I do not allow my dogs to play with dogs we don't know, and the same will be for yours.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Elmendorf

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Elmendorf is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 2,545 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Elmendorf. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Elmendorf choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Elmendorf with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Elmendorf. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
