“Sabrina did a great job taking care of Prince. Everything went smoothly, and my dog was well looked after and comfortable. Communication was clear, and I appreciated knowing my dog was in good hands. I’d definitely be happy to use her again and would recommend Sabrina to others!”
“Thank you, Jennifer, for taking great care of our Bailey. She's always such a nervous one, but it's comforting to know she can relax and play with you, just as if she were at home. Having a home-away-from-home for her is such a blessing and relief, especially when we have to leave her for extended periods of time.”
“Hector was phenomenal in caring for our very large baby, who gets anxious when first departing from us. She was wonderfully cared for and it was incredibly easy to get in and out for drop off and pick up.”
“First time taking Ryder for daycare here. I can tell he had fun from the updates we received, and hes tired now. Haha. We will definitely use them again.”
About: I have taken care of horses, cats, dogs, chickens and many other animals over the last several years. I love animals more than people (most of the time 😉) and am very reliable. I work from home, so I’m able to watch your fur babies all day and ensure they have potty breaks, and get all the love the need. I do my very best to make sure your fur baby is as comfortable as when you’re there. If they’re in my home, or I do home visits, I will ensure that the same training is maintained.
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.
“My fur babies had a great time with Carly. She took great care of them and sent me updates throughout the day. She also made sure to slowly introduce my dogs to her dog so that there would be no issues. I would definitely recommend her as a dog sitter!”
“Breanna is amazing at taking care of my dog misa and always willing to accommodate to my work schedule. She always sent pictures and updates on how misa was doing during the visit as well. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Jorge was very informative and kept me updated throughout the day with my dog Ash, which really made me feel comfortable! You can tell he genuinely cares about animals. I would definitely recommend him if you’re looking for someone to watch your dog.”
“Cecilia was lovely! We were visiting SA and needed a place for our puppers to hang while we visited museums so that they didn’t have to stay in our hotel room. Our shy girl was immediately comfortable with Cecilia, and made herself at home immediately. Cecilia sent us lots of cute photos (including some with bandanas and cowgirl hats!) and took the very best care of our girls while we were out. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave them with her again the next time we’re in town. She seems to genuinely enjoy having extra furry friends to love, and our girls were so comfortable with her. I appreciated her flexibility when our drop-off was later than we anticipated, and she accommodated an evening pickup so that we could go to dinner ❤️”
“Jennifer is so amazing. I got a 9 week old husky puppy and I couldn't bare to leave her at home while I'm at work. I talked to several sitters before landing on Jennifer. Akasha my husky is a big baby and constantly needs cuddles attention and potty breaks. Jennifer is soooo amazing with her Akasha gets so excited when she sees we're at Jennifer's for daycare. Her tail goes crazy and she starts running all over. Jennifer loves akasha and akasha loves her she takes such great care of her and treats her like her own dog. If you have ANY second thoughts on who to care for your fur baby look no further Jennifer should be your only choice! I have a recurring weekly daycare with Jennifer for akasha and I know if I have to go out of town who to board her with! Thank you so much for being so amazing Jennifer!!”
“Fernando was very flexible with times and took care my baby last minute. Sent pics even when she was only there for doggo daycare. Thank you so much for having Yuki! Highly recommended ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“The pups always have such an amazing time at Lauren’s! They love playing with the kiddos and pups. She gave me updates on them throughout the day which I was so thankful For. Thank you so much!”
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!
“Steph has done numerous drop ins for my dogs, but today she let my dogs and my foster do doggy day camp for the day at her beautiful place so that I could go and see my grandma one more time. My dogs are so tired and fulfilled! I will def be booking again when I need someone I know I can trust with my furbabies!”

Jennifer has so much experience and knowledge with dogs. My 60 lb mutt (Pitty/Australian Cattle Dog, Great Pyrenees, etc.) is a recent rescue. He has seperation anxiety and needs to learn that people can be kind and fun. Jennifer helped him get used to her and her home in the mornig, and by the afternoon he was giving her kisses - high praise indeed!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Helotes commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,036 sitters in Helotes, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
