“Christine is amazing! She is punctual, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. She was able to accommodate my last-minute request while I was in town visiting family and unexpectedly needed someone to care for my dog. I’m always nervous about leaving my dogs with someone new, but Christine immediately put my mind at ease. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my dog and treated him like one of her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Jackson took exceptional care of my dogs while I was away, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very beginning, he treated them with genuine love and kindness. It was obvious that my dogs felt comfortable and happy around him - they absolutely loved him. He carefully followed every instruction I left, paid attention to the little details, and was always punctual and dependable. Knowing my dogs were in such caring and responsible hands gave me complete peace of mind throughout the trip. If you’re looking for someone who truly loves animals and takes their responsibility seriously, I wholeheartedly recommend Jackson. I am incredibly thankful for everything he did, and I would trust him with my dogs again without hesitation. Thank you, Jackson, for caring for my furry family members as if they were your own!”
About: I truly believe pets are family and treat every dog and cat in my care with patience, love, and attention. I grew up with both dogs and cats and had my childhood dog, Misty, for 18 wonderful years. She crossed the rainbow bridge in June of 2026. I also have experience coordinating adoption events for foster pets through nonprofits, giving me hands on experience with animals of all temperaments, including rescues. As a stay-at-home mom, I offer a flexible schedule and can accommodate early mornings, evenings, drop in visits, and long walks. I’m also comfortable administering medications and adapting to your pet’s specific needs and routine. Always happy to do meet & greets to ensure I am a good fit for your fur babies. 🐾 🤎 I’m home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for drop ins, walks, and consistent care. I’m especially available early mornings and evenings, and I’m able to plan my day around your pet’s needs. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, and I always keep pets separated in my home to make sure everyone stays comfortable and stress free. I keep a clean, calm environment and keep a close eye on all pets at all times. I really try to stick to your pet’s normal routine as much as possible. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I’m happy to follow whatever schedule you have for feeding, potty breaks, walks, meds, and playtime. I’m very flexible and easy to work with, just tell me what your pet needs and I’ll make it happen. I’m also totally comfortable with security cameras in the home and believe in being open and transparent. 🙂 I’ll also send photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away!
“Julie was great !! She went over and above, staying with my kitties during a recent stormy night to ease their anxiety. My cats loved her and were well taken care off.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Ella was absolutely incredible with our fur babies. Communication was great. She went above and beyond to come meet us and our doggies. I would absolutely recommend her. She is a wonderful young lady.”

About: I've always loved animals of any kind! Multiple of my family members have asked and paid me to either watch their own pets while on vacation- or sometimes even other people's pets (neighbors, co-workers, friends). I also have my own red-footed tortoise, so I am familiar with reptile care! I am in school, so I will be working part time. I get out of school every day around noon! I would be available early in the mornings, late afternoons and evenings (working around my work schedule), and weekends! I will follow whatever house/pet rules you have. It is your home, so whatever you say, goes! I can crate any pets, ensure doors and/or gates are secure, etc.

I now care for my two hyperactive dogs and am very skilled at tiring out their brain and body through long, highly stimulating walks and games. I've worked on training highly reactive dogs, decently stubborn, and working dogs who need tricks to get their minds to rest. I promise to provide the highest level of care and attention to your pet and their needs! I work contract work while in graduate school, so I can be available to meet the needs of you and your fur baby and most any time or schedule!

I have a large backyard where they can run and play. Inside the house, I have baby gates that can be used to create separate areas, ensuring dogs have their own private space when needed. I understand the importance of maintaining their familiar routines, but I also have designated spaces that can be utilized if you have two dogs that require supervision during heat cycles or separate feeding times.
About: Hi there! I took a break using Rover for a few years, but I’m back to caring for your pets! I am in an apartment but I work from home so your doggie wouldn’t ever be alone. My balcony faces directly to our dog park and would be easy access for lots play time. Plenty of bathroom breaks, exercise and fun when your pup stays with me. If your dog is more of a relaxing type, that works just as well for me! Your dog will become a part of my family while they board with me! I also use Rover when I need a sitter for my dog and I LOVE my sitter, so I wanted to provide the same care my dog gets. I will always treat your dog as I would want my dog cared for.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Helotes stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 Helotes 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 .

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

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.
