“Lindsay took great care of our cat over the holidays! She was very communicative and always sent plenty of cute pictures. She was also able to check in on her a couple of more times when our flight was cancelled. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Reily watched my two kitties for the weekend and did an amazing job! She followed all instructions, sent lots of updates and pictures, kept my home extremely clean. Will be using her again 😊🐈”
“This was my first time using Rover and I’m so glad I found Kailin! I was very apprehensive about leaving my senior kitty for so long, but meeting her prior to the drop ins put me at ease. I really appreciated how responsive she was and how well she communicates. She was able to come over for a drop in sooner than the designated time for an emergency visit, even though she had prior plans. I’m so thankful for her and will definitely be utilizing her services again!!”
“Parker was very good with our cats. They warmed up to her quickly. She was communicative and shared updates/pictures. She did a great job and we will continue to work with her in the future.”
“Makaela was great and super nice. Easy to communicate with and provides plenty of pics! You can tell Makaela truly loves animals, she even fed my outside kitties and bird friends for me. I would definitely recommend her to friends and family for petting sitting 👍🏽”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for many years, including dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routine, providing exercise, feeding on schedule, administering basic medications when needed, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I work from home full-time, so have plenty of time to attend to your pup! Our work schedules are very flexible so will always be available for potty breaks, quick outdoor walks and play time. I have a fenced yard for potty breaks and one friendly dog. (I can separate if needed) I can also crate your dog if requested or needed.
“Ella was great! Maisy really took to her immediately and I had complete peace of mind leaving town for a few days. She sent lots of photos of my happy kitty :) Definitely recommend!”
“Updated me frequently about my cat and sent plenty of cute photos and videos! Would recommend and book again (: Patient, caring, & knowledgeable about what she does ❤️”
About: I’ve had dogs as part of my family for most of my life, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for them when you can’t be there. I’m dependable, attentive, and very comfortable getting to know each dog’s individual personality and routine. For drop-in visits, I’m not someone who will simply fill the food and water bowls and leave. I’ll spend time with your pet, give them attention and affection, let them out for potty breaks, play with them, and make sure they’re comfortable and settled before I go. I’m also a detail person, so I’ll pay attention to things like eating and drinking, behavior, energy level, and anything that seems out of the ordinary. Whether your dog is young and energetic, older and prefers a little extra patience, or just happiest having some company while you’re away, my goal is for them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home—and for you to feel confident that they’re in good hands. I am available for lunchtime visits as well aa early evening. I am available for early morning with enough advance notice. Availability is contingent upon the client’s needs. I do not currently offer sitter services in my home at this time. I’m happy to care for your pet as a drop in only.
About: I’m a life time pet lover. I’ve had dogs, cats, horses & bunnies growing up but have always loved dogs the most. I’m familiar with all sorts of breeds from my own personal experience. Big breeds such as German Shepherds, American Akitas, Pitbulls & small breeds like dachshund, chihuahuas & poodles. My experience in caring for these breeds has been from my own pets, & caring for family and friends pups. Just as much as I loved their pups & my own i’d do the same with your beloved pups! I currently work full time, but I am able to walk/ pet sit your pup after work or on the weekends. They will get the best care possible! I live in an apartment, but on the weekend and when I am home after work they get two walks before bed and several walks throughout the day when I’m home on the weekends.
“Maryela had a few drop-ins over the weekend to feed and care for our three dogs. Each of the dogs have very different personalities and they all loved her instantly when she came to meet them. Her communication was great and we appreciated receiving photos of each visit. This really allowed my family to enjoy out trip knowing the dogs were in good hands. I'll definitely be using Mary again and recommend her to others.”
About: I have been house and pet sitting for over a decade, and have been responsible for caring for dogs, cats, chickens, horses, and rabbits. There have been a few occasions in which the animals I was caring for required extra care such as medications, very specific diets, etc. so you have nothing to worry about if that is the case for you. I will care for any amount of animals, and any species and size animals.. I love them all! I am hard working and passionate about all animals, so I can promise that I will love and care for your pets as if they were my own. I work full time at a horse show training barn, so I would need to be gone 8 hours a day, but I am never home later than 5:00pm. I also have Thursdays and Sundays off, so even if I am working, I will have plenty of time to fully care for your animals. I believe personal attention is just as important as basic necessities. In my care, your animals needs such as being fed and let outside will be taken care of, but I also prioritize plenty of play time, walks, pets and affection.
About: I’m a Texas A&M University Animal Science graduate with hands-on experience working in a veterinary clinic. Through my veterinary experience, I’ve cared for dogs and cats with a variety of personalities, ages, and needs and have developed skills in safe animal handling, administering medications, and recognizing changes in behavior or health. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I take the time to provide individualized, patient, and compassionate care. Whether your pet is playful, shy, senior, or needs extra attention, I’m committed to keeping them comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. My veterinary background allows me to provide an extra level of confidence and attentive care for both pets and their owners. I work a consistent weekday schedule, with Wednesdays off, so I primarily offer pet care before or after work and during my lunch break, with greater availability on weekends and days off. I plan my bookings carefully to ensure I have enough time to provide each pet with attentive, unhurried care. I’m dependable and communicative, and I’ll work with you to find visit times that fit your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My veterinary experience has taught me the importance of safe animal handling, paying attention to changes in behavior, and following each pet’s individual care instructions. When caring for pets in their home, I respect your space and follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines. I’m comfortable with pets of different ages, personalities, and needs, and I’ll always prioritize keeping them safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love and experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I often volunteer with CAMO Rescue, where I’ve gained valuable experience caring for and spending time with different dogs. I also have three dogs of my own at home, both big and small, so I understand that every dog has their own unique needs and personality. I enjoy staying active, and taking your dog on a walk makes my day even better! I’ll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to balance my classes while still providing plenty of time and attention for your furry friends. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, whether it’s going on walks, spending quality time with pets, or making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. A big bonus is that I get to spend more time with animals, which is something I truly love! In my own home, I make sure my dogs have a consistent routine and receive the care and attention they need every day. I feed my doggies twice a day, carefully measuring out each bowl to make sure they are getting the right amount of food. I also make sure they get daily exercise by taking them on walks and giving them plenty of playtime and attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I would follow their established routine closely to help their pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while they’re away.

I offer safe and cozy home boarding, fun and engaging walks, and dependable drop-in visits for meals, potty breaks, or companionship. Every dog I meet is treated like family with plenty of love, attention, and individualized care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Hi! I'm an experienced animal care professional with over 5 years of hands on experience working in the veterinary field. Caring for animals has always been my passion, and I'm committed to providing every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. Beginning July 7, 2026, I'll be leaving my position at my veterinary clinic to return to school full time in a primarily online program. This means I'll be home much more often, giving me the flexibility to provide attentive care, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship for your pets throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a reliable sitter, daily visits, or extra attention while you're away, you can feel confident knowing they're in the hands of someone with professional veterinary experience and a genuine love for animals.

Whether I’m boarding, walking, or doing drop in visits, you can trust that your pet will be cared for like family in a safe, loving, and reliable environment.
About: Being raised around cats my whole life, I started pet sitting for friends at 13. As a nanny, I also pet sit for the families I care for as well. Currently working part-time so I have a lot of flexibility. I’m a nanny, but my shifts tend to be short so I can schedule sits easily. I request written instructions/information so that if I’m unsure about anything or need to review information—there is no confusion. I am happy to match your desired level of communication, whether that’s photos and/or messages after each visit, daily reports, or more minimal options.
About: Caring for pets has been a rewarding experience in my life. I’ve taken care of cats, dogs and livestock as well. Animals bring me a joy that people cannot. I’ve learned that a happy pet is a well cared for pet. I have experience with puppies as well as senior dogs. I love walks and playful interactions with dogs, and I make sure every dog feels comfortable around me. I am currently registered as a full time college student, but I do have about half the week available to care for your lovely animals. I do have two of my own furry dogs at home, which I take care of on the daily basis. I am able to provide proper care with exercise as well as handling excited dogs.
About: Hi! I’m Elizabeth, an 18-year-old animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets and helping with family pets. I’ve had my cat since 2019 and my dog since 2024, so I understand the daily responsibility, patience, and attention that pets need to stay happy and healthy. In addition to caring for my own pets, I frequently watch over my family’s dogs, giving them plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship while their owners are away. I know every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy taking the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just relax with someone nearby, I’ll make sure they receive the same kindness and care I’d want for my own pets. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care is already a part of my everyday routine. I make time each day to feed my pets, refresh their water, clean my cat’s litter box, take my dog outside for walks and bathroom breaks, and spend quality time playing with and giving them attention. Caring for animals has taught me responsibility, consistency, and patience, and I enjoy making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Because pet care is something I already do every day, I understand how important it is to stick to each pet’s routine and provide dependable care. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks or litter box cleaning, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also pay close attention to their behavior to make sure they’re happy and healthy, and I’ll keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and caring environment where every pet feels loved while their family is away.
“Angel took outstanding care of our cat while we were away. She was very easy to communicate with and made dropping off and picking up our cat very easy. Thanks!”
About: I've experienced the magic of pets since I was young. My parents' house includes a Shih Tzu, Labrador, and a mixed cat! They behave different but have tons of love that they give us. We love our pets, and I know you love yours, too. I've cared for pets of a variety of ages and sizes. I update clients every day / walk that their pet is in my care. If you need a scheduled sitter in advance or a last minute sitter, just ask! Let's work together. First-time clients get 10% off for the first appointment. I'm responsible and trustworthy. I hold a master's degree and work full-time, but can step away during lunch breaks to feed pets and can go after 5pm. I also love giving daily updates on your pet while you are away! For house sitting, I leave your home the way I find it. I appreciate a clean space in my own home, and I take pride in respecting your home. I enjoy jogging / hiking. I regularly walk my parents' Labrador when I am home; thus, taking your fur baby on a walk is not a challenge for me. I walk often, and will be sure to keep your pets safe! I am aware of snakes and other predators lurking in San Antonio's trails and have training in snake bite care. I haven't had to use it, yet, but it is good info to know! I can walk your dog anytime after 5pm, Mondays - Fridays. I am usually flexible with my time on weekends if given advanced notice. I do not walk pets in extreme heat (outside temperature of 90 or more, unless there is ample shade in your neighborhood), as I prioritize their safety/wellness and do not want to burn their paws.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

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.
