About: I have been the neighborhood pet sitter since I was 12. I love taking them out for walks, playing games, and giving lots of head scratches. I am currently a college student with lots of free time to love your animals. I only have class for a couple of hours a day and would love to spend my extra time caring for your pets! I currently have no pets living with me. So I would love to take your dogs for nice, long walks and let them play outside. I also love playing with cats, making sure they get the love they need.

About: Let me help take care of your puppy at any age! Experienced in caring for dogs with high medical needs from puppyhood to senior care, I'm especially good at getting stubborn pups to take their medication with minimal stress. 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! My services will focus on the comfort and wellveing of your pet, while being conscientious and respectful of your space. Together we'll make sure that your home is respected while your fur baby gets exceptional care.

“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!”

At Cowboy Springers Doggy Daycare, safety is a top priority. All dogs are closely monitored to ensure that your furry friend is always safe and secure. You can rest easy knowing that your pups are in the hands of experienced and loving professionals. Contact us today to schedule a visit and see why Cowboy Springers Doggy Daycare is the best choice for your furry friend's care. At this time, we don’t offer meet and greets as they are not covered under the Rover Guarantee. However, we understand the importance of a smooth transition for your pet. To help, we offer discounted trial doggy daycare or one overnight trial boarding, allowing your pet to get accustomed and see how they adjust to ensure their comfort in a new setting.🐾 When it comes to caring for your pet, I provide the same level of attention and care that you would. I will diligently follow their routine, including their feeding schedule and designated break times. In my backyard, I have a lovely gated deck where we can relax and soak up the sun together! 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: I have been told that I have a way with animals , especially dogs in terms of gaining their trust. I have raised a number a dogs over 2 decades living on the family ranch. The latest dog I picked out for the family was very shy and scared. But I bonded with him quickly and gained his trust. FYI, I understand that this a job that I must prioritize customer service, and the health and well-being of their pets. I am well aware the duties of house sitting would include washing toys and dishes, mopping if needed, making sure the pets get plenty of play time, walks in parks, cleaning up waste, and giving meds if needed. Also, I’ll bring my own air mattress if you wish me to spend the night house sitting your pet. Also, for your information, I am actively seeking a part-time job, so I won’t be available, as a house sitter, to stay in your home all day considering I’ll need to work and such. But I will spend the nights at your place making sure your pet is cared for by all means necessary. I am working on getting another part-time job to make ends meet, but I can provide a flexible schedule to ensure your pets gets the best service when I am needed for help. As a house sitter, I won’t be available to stay in the house with your pet all day; but will still spend the nights there taking care of your pet. I am unable to provide service to have your pet stay at my place. My backyard is too small for starters. And most importantly, the walls and fence are not built properly meaning you dog might be at risk of digging out.

About: I have several years of experience caring for animals through pet sitting (dogs, puppies not yet potty trained, birds, and cats), as well as fostering puppies and bunnies (not currently available for fostering), dog walking, and volunteer work with humane societies in multiple states. My experience includes feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, and house sitting. I also have nearly two years of professional and independent home-care experience, including cleaning private homes and Airbnbs and house sitting, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets in someone else’s home and treating their space with respect. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s individual personality and routine. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my day. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, house sitting, and weekend care, and can often accommodate different routines and schedules with advance notice. I’m very comfortable caring for pets in their own homes and following each owner’s specific routine and instructions. I have experience pet sitting, house sitting, and professionally cleaning private homes and Airbnbs, so I understand the trust involved in being in someone else’s home. I’m attentive to doors, gates, feeding instructions, medications, and each pet’s individual comfort and safety.

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and we’ve always had at least one dog around. I’ve been relied on for pet care by friends and family from a young age and have also professionally worked with animals in day care, boarding, and kennel settings. And now those who know me regularly come to me for advise on care for their pets, and I’m always very happy to offer whatever help I can or learn more from someone else or another source if it’s a topic I’m not as educated on so that I can provide better help in the future. I have experience with all sizes and temperaments of dogs and cats and am willing to work with difficult pets as well. Whatever your pet needs, I will do my best to provide during their service. Their safety, comfort, and enjoyment is always my priority. If you ever have questions or want advice on anything related to pet care, handling, diet, or behavior issues I’m also always glad to answer to the best of my ability! I don’t know everything by any means, but have helped people with things such as weight loss for obese dogs, leash training difficult-to-walk dogs, or socializing reactive dogs among other things. I currently have two pets of my own. Zora, my goofy Texas-special mutt puppy (one day I’ll get her DNA tested and figure out just what the heck she’s mixed with) I adopted in May 2026; the vet estimates she was born in January 2026. She loves to hang her head out the car window and feel the wind when I’m driving, and she loves making friends with all the people and dogs. I try to get her out to experience things out and about as much as possible, and we’re usually out at the dog park at least once or twice a week! Then there is my kitty Valkyrie, who was born in January 2021 and who I adopted in April 2021. She’s an indoor-only kitty which suits her just fine as she find the wide world and all the noises that go with it to be a bit terrifying. However I have set my patio up as a catio of sorts as well and she does enjoy sitting out there and soaking up the sun and sights and smells in comfort and security. She loves finding the highest points in my home to rest in, and I’ve ended up putting a bed for her up on top of one of my cabinets because she likes to sleep up there so much. The blinds are my windows always have to be pulled up just a bit so that she can look out the windows, otherwise she tends to get a bit huffy. She is quite the talker when she wants something or is demanding attention, or just wants to tell me all her about her day when I get home. I do currently have a main job as a dog groomer, though my hours are fairly flexible and I have nearly total freedom with my schedule. As long as it doesn’t interfere with any of my coworkers schedules or create inconveniences for our clients, my boss essentially lets me move my work schedule around however I want. The only day I typically would be completely unavailable with the exception of possible extremely early in the morning or very late in the evening/at night would be Thursdays, as my boss needs me with her as an assistant on Thursdays. But otherwise, particularly if I’m given plenty of advance notice, I can usually move my work schedule around to accommodate dog walks and sitting requests. Just send me a message and I’m more than happy to talk days and times you need! I like to try to match the pet’s pace during their walks. I’m not much of a runner, but I’ve got some long legs and have a fast walking pace. If they just want to go-go-go that is fine with me, or if they’re more of the chill, sniff around and stroll leisurely along type, we can take it nice and easy. For drop in visits, I will not let dogs out into a yard unless it is securely fenced in, and I will never allow a cat to go outdoors while they are in my care. If you don’t have a secure yard but your pup still needs to get out during the visit, I’m happy to take them on a quick walk as long as there is a leash and collar/harness provided.

About: I have taken care of multiple pets throughout my life. I am familiar with caring for puppies, middle aged cats/dogs, and senior cats/dogs. Animals hold a very special place in my heart & they deserve nothing but love. I can fit your pets care and needs into my schedule without a problem. Let me know the timeframe you need your fur baby taken care of, & they will be first on my list of priorities! I have a fenced yard that is very spacious for your fur baby to roam and play. There are many shady areas for your pet to rest from playing. Fresh food, water, and of course head pats will be available at all times. 🐾 If the weather is too much, we will hangout inside and do whatever your pet is in the mood for, whether it be playing, eating, or resting. They will be cared for and loved.

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.

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!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Helotes

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Helotes on Rover is $18.19 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 2,807 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Helotes. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

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 .

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 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.

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
  • 95% 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.
