“She is amazing! She will absolutely let you know if there is anything abnormal. I don’t have to worry about anything, she’s very detailed when it comes to the Rover card and she follows care instructions very well. Very consistent with time as well. I would recommend her to friends and family.”

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family and deserve attentive, compassionate care while their owners are away. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of various breeds, sizes, and personalities, including energetic puppies, senior pets, and those with special routines. I provide dependable, personalized care tailored to each pet's needs, whether that's daily walks, playtime, feeding, administering medications, or simply offering companionship and affection. I know how important consistency is, so I follow each pet's routine closely to help them feel comfortable and secure. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and communicative. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages during each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and provide the same level of love and attention I would want for my own animals. I am retired and currently looking for part-time work doing something I truly enjoy—caring for animals. I have previous dog-sitting experience and genuinely love spending time with dogs of all breeds and sizes. Whether it's going for walks, playing, or simply providing companionship, I am patient, dependable, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will treat your pet with the same love and attention I would give my own. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and enjoy time outdoors. I have experience pet sitting for family and friends in their homes and understand the importance of maintaining each pet's normal routine. I'm also happy to welcome pets into my home, where they'll receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and a safe, comfortable environment while you're away.

“This was me husband and I booked Alexandria to watch our two cats. One of our cats gets pretty agitated when we go out of town, and Alexandria is patient and calming to her. We love getting her thorough notes and pictures when we are gone. I can finally enjoy myself when I’m out of town knowing our cats are well taken care of!”

About: I have been caring for animals since I was about 10 years old. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to care for and walk their beloved pets. I have experience working with animals of all ages, from tiny kittens to playful puppies, and I always strive to provide them with the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own pets. My goal is to ensure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while in my care. I will be a freshman at UTSA in the fall, so pet care fits well into my schedule. I am available in between classes, and on days when I do not have classes I have even more flexibility to provide dependable care, walks, feeding, and attention for pets. I prioritize the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care. Whether I am caring for a pet in my client’s home or providing visits throughout the day, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and secure. I also keep a close eye on pets during walks and playtime to ensure they remain safe at all times. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving pet owners peace of mind that their pets are in good hands.

About: I consider myself a passionate and reliable animal lover with lifelong experience in caring for, feeding, and exercising dogs. I have a flexible schedule and I’m available for early mornings, weekends, and short notice requests. I look forward to providing a safe, active, and engaging walking experience for clients’ pets. Managing pet care is second nature to me and dictates how I plan my day. With my flexible job I can accommodate early morning, midday, or late night walks. Pet care is treated as a priority and I see to it that fresh water, meals, and exercise fit into everyday plans. Every walk needs to be adapted to the environment. Safety is my top priority and I am constantly scanning for potential harmful situation that may be encountered.

About: I’ve taken care of puppy’s-senior dog, I had my dog since she was a puppy and she is now a senior dog she lives at my dads house because I moved out about a year ago. I’m good taking dogs on walks, playing, belly rubs!! I am currently a part time babysitter so I have extra time on my hands! I love going to the animal shelter and taking out the dogs to play, so this would be great for me. I would make sure to treat them as my own read instructions and follow them to a tea. Give them lots of belly rubs and snuggles, playtime and lots of times around me.

About: I have worked with furry friends as a licensed veterinary technician for almost 12 years now and have had my own pets for 18. I feel confident caring for dogs at any age and varying medical needs! I now work as a full-time collegiate minister but since my previous career was in veterinary medicine, I still look for ways to work with pets! My schedule varies from week to week allowing for much flexibility for pet sitting! I like to care for pets as closely to how the owner would care for their pet! This means is the owner would rather me stay overnight at their home, I am happy to do that. I often work remotely so can spend extended hours in the client’s home keeping their pets company, especially if their pets have separation anxiety.

“Absolutely amazing and all of our pets loved her. I was so happy that our cats especially warmed up to Ericka so fast and my dog absolutely loved playing with her. We have specific rules for our pets and how they are fed and she did everything perfectly including hiding our cats food around the house. Ericas ability to adapt to new environments and challenges is exemplary and was very comfortable and open to our check ins with the house cameras. Overall we will definitely hire Ericka again when we need petcare.”

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.

About: I’ve been taking care of ALL kinds of different animals since I was very young. I am very patient and reliable when it comes to dogs, cats, and any other type of animal. I promise that your pet is in good hands with me and I will treat them just like my own. I am working from home, part time, and want to help other people and their pets with whatever time I can spare. I’m definitely not using Rover as an excuse to just play with random stranger’s pets. Their safety and wellbeing is my top priority. If you have any special routines or rules for your pet, I will make sure to abide by them.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Wonderful Dog Sitter! Highly Recommend Nicole! 🐾❤️ Nicole did a fantastic job taking care of our pups, Loki and Marley, over a long weekend! She arrived for every visit right on schedule and made sure each drop-in was meaningful, with plenty of attention, affection, and fun walks. We could tell Loki and Marley were in great hands because they were so happy and excited every time Nicole arrived! I loved being able to check our Ring camera and see how sweetly and genuinely she interacted with them. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. Nicole was also wonderful about communication, sending pictures and updates after every visit so we always knew how our pups were doing. Her reliability, thoughtfulness, and genuine love for our dogs made the entire experience stress-free. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be booking Nicole again! If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, and attentive to your fur babies, we highly recommend her. Loki and Marley give her two enthusiastic paws up! 🐶🐶❤️

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Fair Oaks Ranch

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Fair Oaks Ranch is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $30 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 2,935 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Fair Oaks Ranch. 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 Fair Oaks Ranch 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.

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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Meet & Greet.

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 Fair Oaks Ranch 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 Fair Oaks Ranch. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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 cancellation policy, 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.
