“Ericka did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Molly! This was my first time using Rover so I wasn't sure how it would go having a new person take care of her doing the drop-in visits, but she loved Ericka! I also really appreciated the notes and photo updates from each check-in. I will definitely be booking her again!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for almost 10 years now. During that time I have gained experience with older dogs, diabetic dogs, puppies and everything in between. I currently own a rescue dog who I have been doing high level obedience with. We participate in dogs sport like rally obedience, fetch, fastCAT, barn hunt, lure coursing and most recently scent work. When I come to take care of your dog I will treat them as if they were my own with lots of love. I want to make you feel comfortable about leaving your dog knowing someone responsible is going to take care of them. I have a high energy dog. His care involves daily walks, and lots of training including scent work, learning new tricks or building up muscle and rear end awareness. My favorite activity is walking and training dogs. I will care for your dog with love and kindness. If you give my specifics of how you like your dog handled I am more than happy to follow that. I understand each dog is different and unique which means that I adjust accordingly.

I have a large fenced-in yard safe for any size dog to run and play in. Additionally, I am happy to accommodate indoor dogs as needed.

About: As a middle school teacher and coach, caring for others, being dependable, and maintaining a consistent routine are part of my everyday life. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats of various ages, sizes, and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and comfort levels. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding schedules, administering basic medications, litter box care, or simply providing companionship, I strive to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their pets because they know I am responsible, communicative, and attentive to details. I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving excellent care. My goal is simple: to treat every pet as if they were my own and ensure they receive the attention, exercise, affection, and care they deserve. As a teacher on summer break, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. Whether your dog needs multiple walks, playtime, potty breaks, or your cat needs companionship and care, I can provide attentive, reliable service throughout the day. I am available weekdays, weekends, holidays, and for last-minute bookings whenever possible. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have a secure fenced yard that allows dogs plenty of space to run, play, and explore safely. I also have a large outdoor kennel available if needed for supervised outdoor time, feeding, or to accommodate specific pet routines. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, schedule, and special needs to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Whether your pet enjoys being active, playing fetch, going for walks, or simply relaxing and receiving attention, I will make sure they get the care and companionship they deserve. I closely follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special requests provided by owners. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is safe, loved, and well cared for throughout their stay. 🐾
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I got my first cat at 9 years old. I adore the companionship and love animals give. Some of my best memories are centered around a fur baby and I’d love to make some memories with yours! I’m currently working full time but am able to check on during my lunch break and after work. My schedule on the weekends is very flexible and I’m typically available all day. Your pet will be my top priority when I am with them. I care for orher people's pets the same as I do mine because animals deserve love and safety. I will always listen to your instructions but I would love to give them treats, extra hugs, playtime and walks. I don’t mind changing litter boxes and I will always make sure their living area is kept clean and that they have enough food and water.
“Robyn was great. We got stranded by weather circumstances and she continued to visit our pets until we could get home two days later. Competent and efficient and the kitties were happy and purring upon our return”

“Been booking Mr Mel every week since I've found him, he's so amazing with our extremely hyper Doberman, we appreciate you more than ever man, he always goes above and beyond!”

About: Whether your dog needs play time or a quiet environment, they will love hanging out with me and my 4 legged companion. When I'm not working, my dog and I go on some pretty cool adventures together and he loves it when I dog sit a dog at his speed. Your dog will not be cooped up in a kennel unless you make this request. When they are not playing, your pet will be kept indoors. I have over 10 years of working with bully breeds and hybrids. High energy breeds is my field of expertise. My home is minutes from the beautiful San Antonio River and we visit there often. Some of our favorite hangouts are, the Pearl Brewery, San Antonio Riverwalk, Alamo Quarry, Calaveras Lake and many nature trails in our area. I will spoil your Best Friend as I do my own. Proceeds from my Pet sits will benefit my non profit that provides emergency groceries for Homebound Seniors. About this sitter: I totally get it! Let me visit your pets in the comfort of their own home. I'm use to traveling and frequent the major cities of TX every month. I am very familiar with the city of S.A. and surrounding. Your dog will receive a walk twice a day if you would like him or her to. I have trained and worked with all breeds and sizes so no dog is too big or high energy for me! Why I love dog sitting My Grandfather raised German Shepherds and my Father loved Large Breeds. Growing up, I remember always having dogs. In 2000 I started a group called Mutt Rescue & Adoption to help save dogs that are pending euthanasia at the city Pound. Our group rescued and transported animals nationwide. We saved thousands of dogs from euthanasia! My experience administering medication I can administer medication by oral or injection. I can take your do on early morning walks/runs or late runs, temperature and weather permitting. I am an avid runner so high energy breeds work great with my lifestyle! I try to stick to the dog's current schedule. If it's a puppy, then I help with the toilet training process. I do have 2 cats in my home, but they can be separated to another bedroom if your dog does not co exist well with cats.
About: I have had 3 litters of puppy in my house and have helped train and bath them all. I volunteered at a pet groomer giving baths a few time. I have 5 dogs that live with me but I am moving off to college and won't have any pets so I thought this is a great way to still be around the animals I love. I am going to college however I have free time every day and wanted something to do so i can be close to animals every day. I am mostly going to be walking animals but I will also consider house sitting and going to watch animals at other peoples houses depending on the time.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
