About: I truly adore cats and dogs, and I love getting to know what makes each pet feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m patient, gentle, and always tuned in to what your pet needs—whether it’s extra playtime, a calm presence, or just someone who treats them with the same love they’re used to at home. Your pets become a little part of my heart while they’re with me, and I’m committed to making them feel cared for every moment. Even with a full-time Monday–Friday job, caring for animals is something I naturally make room for—it’s one of the best parts of my day. I’m available in the mornings and evenings for walks, drop-ins, or snuggle visits, and I’m always happy to stop by on my lunch break if a pet needs a little extra attention. Weekends and holidays are even more flexible for me, so I can give your pets plenty of time, love, and consistency. No matter how busy life gets, I make sure the animals I care for feel supported, safe, and looked after. No matter where I’m caring for your pet—my home or yours—I always try to make things feel calm, comforting, and familiar for them. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, whether that means specific feeding times, their favorite walking route, or a special way they like to play or wind down. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and make sure everything stays clean, safe, and just the way you prefer. I give your pet plenty of attention, love, and reassurance so they feel comfortable while you’re away.
“Shelby cared for my fur babies like they were her own. I was so worried to leave them at first but I was so pleased with the first visit that my worries were over. I will definitely use Shelby again.”
About: Veterinary Technician with 6+ yrs of experience. Comfortable with puppies, seniors, diabetic pets, post-op care, medication administration, SQ injections and special-needs pets of all ages. As a veterinary technician caring for animals already part of my daily routine. I can accommodate most schedules, medication administration and special needs while providing attentive and compassionate care. ❤️ I play close attention to each pet’s health, behavior and daily routine. I maintain a clean environment, follow all care instructions carefully and treat every client’s home with respect. I’ll provide regular updates, photos and communication for peace of mind.
“Katelynn was flexible with our schedule and took good care of both of our cats while we were away. She followed the care instructions we left and made sure Penny and Sammy were well cared for. We appreciated her willingness to work with our schedule and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter.”
“Claudia was absolutely amazing with our crazy dogs! I was very nervous since this was my first time using Rover and my dogs are a little difficult to deal with, but She had open communication with us the whole time and made sure our dogs were comfortable with her, she definitely went above and beyond when caring for our fur babies, thank you Claudia!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since i was 15. I took care of my neighbors dogs across the street and spent the night and they were two pit bulls and a great dane. I love dogs, so don’t hesitate to call! I am currently in school at St. Edward’s University. I am on the baseball team as well. But I am in injured right now for this season. So i have a lot more free time. I can easily crate your dogs at your house if needed. Like at my house if my dog misbehaves i will send her to her crate for about 10-15 minutes. Whatever yall do when yall dogs get in trouble I can do the same thing.
“He did an amazing job pet sitting my cat! I got daily updates and pictures so I could see he was being loved and cared for. He followed all the instructions perfectly and gave us the peace of mind we needed on our vacation! Would recommend Patrick to anyone who needed someone to pet sit their cat!”
“Marla was amazing with our pups! I had one who needed twice daily eye drops. We love all the pics of them hanging out or playing in the backyard. Marla was very patient with Damaris while she warmed up to a new person. I would love to work with Marla when we travel again.”
“Kate instantly connected with Cash and took great care of him. She went above and beyond to make sure his needs were met. Looking forward to having her take care of my baby again in the future.”
“Faith took amazing care of my dogs while I was away! I had her pop in twice a day to let the dogs out and feed them, and she was punctual for every visit. The dogs were happy in every photo that she sent to me. Overall would definitely rebook with Faith when I go out of town again.”
“Did a great job of caring for my babies. Kept me up to date daily and responded quickly when I would reach out. Was also flexible when I had to change things around a bit. Would recommend and will use her services again.”
About: Dedicated room and upstairs to hosting any and all kittens or cats that need a loving environment while their owners are away or needing assistance with all of their cat needs! I'm currently working from home and available at most times during the day to take care of my wonderful guests when they are here to ensure they have a great experience I have a dedicated room and upstairs available for your cats or kittens to roam as well as the rest of the house. I have always loved animals and especially cats.
“Samuel has been sitting for both our dog and cat for over a year and has been wonderful. We have used him for home boarding and drop in visits at our home in the west side and he is always great with communication, reliable, and does great with our pets. We have been very satisfied!”
“Nicole was very sweet and attentive to my kitties and all of my needs. She even came over before we went out of town to go over instructions and was concerned with making sure she had everything correct. She sent me pictures of my kitties while I was gone and even brought my packages in for me! I was very impressed with her cleanliness and even suggested I buy more litter before I left as she made sure their box was tidy. :) She was very friendly and easy to work with; I would definitely use her again!”
“Jackie was terrific. We had a wonderful intro meeting then she came for 2+ weeks every day. My dog was with my elderly mother who cant really walk him. He was in great shape when I came back, and my mother seemed happy with the situation.”

Absolutely amazing experience! I can't recommend Adriana enough. A solid 100/10! She truly went above and beyond in caring for our fur babies, making our last minute trip much easier and worry free. It was such a huge relief knowing that they were in such capable hands. Adriana provided them with lots of attention, played with them, and kept us updated with plenty of photos. We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter!
Look no further!! Amanda was an incredible sitter for our cat. We got lots of updates. Amanda absolutely went above and beyond as well: cleaned up after our kitty, actually took her waste bags out to the trash. 100/10 recommend and will use again. Thank you so much!!

As of July 2026, there are 1,345 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Helotes. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
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.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Helotes. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 calendar availability.
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.
