About: I have been a dog mom for many years. My beautiful black lab lived to be 15.5 years old and needed special care and attention towards the end. I would love to give your fur baby the love and attention they need while you are away. Hi, I'm retired and have most weekdays free, as well as weekends if I know in advance. I can also be available on occasional weekends. I have two spayed middle aged cats currently and lost my 15.5 year old black Labrador in 2024. All of my animals are family to me and I would treat yours the same, with love and kindness.
“After being gone for a long day, and you come home to happy pups. There is no greater feeling than knowing that they have been loved and cherished by someone else when you were unable to spend your entire day with them! Shima not only ran around and played with my fur babies, but gave them the extra special attention and love that they cherish. I highly recommend Shima and will definitely hire her again for any future pet sitting services I may need!”
“We really loved Elizabeth! The dogs, as well! One of my dogs, who is not affectionate with his kisses gave her a few licks! I am pretty sure she is the first person to get licks on the first visit. I know my dogs are in good hands with her!”
“Pamela was very thorough with her care for our cat. She took the time to try to play with her, which no other cat sitter has tried to do with Jade. Unfortunately, she is one of those cats who is only comfortable around us. We would feel comfortable with Pamela caring for her in the future and would ask her to return.”
“Sherri was absolutely fantastic! Our Poppy is still so small and requires a great deal of care and attention, and Sherri was exceptional in providing us updates, the best pics, and most importantly loving our Poppy in our absence. And dog owner would be so fortunate to have Sherri care for their fur babies! She is the best!”
About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover who believes every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and cared for like family. ❤️ I’m a proud dog mom to three amazing pups: Leo, my playful little dachshund, Lola, my sweet Chihuahua mix, and Lex, my big-hearted pit mix. They’re a huge part of my life, and caring for them has taught me so much about how unique every pet’s personality and needs can be. I love spending time outdoors, going on walks, exploring nature, and enjoying fresh air with my furry friends. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing outside, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone around to make them feel comfortable, I’m happy to make their time with me special! I understand that pets are family, and I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur babies. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own, while respecting their routines, personalities, and individual needs. I’d love to meet your furry best friend and give them all the love, care, and attention they deserve while you’re away! 🐶🐾💕 I’m not working at the time so I have all day, I have some trips scheduled though, I’m normally out of town on thanksgiving and new years. I can’t watch your pets at my home because of my two dogs but I’m more then confortable on going to yours and keep your pet safe and loved.
About: Ive head pets my whole life and I am also a mom so I have a lot of patience dealing with teaching and watching over others. I’m currently a stay at home mom so I can watch pets at any time. With time and organization I can watch your pets when needed. I prefer for the pets to be in the owners home and I can take care of them. If needed can also provide a safe space in my own home
About: I grew up on a farm and always had animals with me, I've taken care of animals my whole. From ducks to dogs!! My life is animals. I'm currently working PT so I have lots of free time after and before work and on weekends I don't work at all! Very open! I love dogs and cats and will care for them if they are or aren't mine! I have rescued many animals and saved them! I am a caring person, i've watched many dogs and cats before, changing water, walks, and following the special requests they give me since all animals are unique. My backyard is a porch that's fenced in.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of every age and need since I was 10 — from rowdy puppies and playful kittens to senior pets with special requirements. I’m comfortable administering oral and topical medications, tracking dosage schedules, and watching for changes in appetite, mobility, or behavior. With senior pets, I focus on gentle routines, extra rest, and close attention to comfort. With younger pets, I prioritize safe socialization, play, and structure so they get the interaction and exercise they need. I offer boarding and house sitting, so pets stay in a comfortable, familiar routine whether they’re in my care or their own home. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to feed, medicate, and care for their pets like my own. I’m currently working part-time from home, so I have plenty of flexibility to give your pets real attention, not just a quick check-in. Here’s what a typical visit or stay looks like: • Available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2pm • Flexible daytime drop-ins for medication schedules and older pets who need consistency • Extra playtime and outdoor walks built into every visit, not rushed • Happy to adjust timing around your pet’s normal routine so nothing feels disrupted I treat every pet like my own, with a strong focus on both physical safety and mental enrichment. Here’s what you can expect: • Fenced yard and two friendly, dog-savvy dogs to keep your pet company • Daily outdoor time for fresh air, sniffing, and exercise — not just a backyard bathroom break • Enrichment activities like puzzle feeders, treat-scattering, and interactive play to keep their mind engaged • Comfortable crating available if that’s part of your pet’s routine • Careful medication administration and monitoring for any dogs or cats with health needs • A calm, decorated, pet-friendly space that feels like home, not a kennel
About: DOGS WITHOUT LOVE ARE LIKE HUMANS WITHOUT PURPOSE! I absolutely love dogs. I have a thirteen year old miniature Australian Shepard who thinks he is my third child and is treated as such. I am 47 years old and have a rewarding career in plastic/reconstructive surgery, but also realize that caring for fur babies is yet another true passion in which I truly enjoy! Fur babies need lots of love and attention as well as activity through play dates, park time, hiking, walking swimming etc. Additional Services Include: Groomer drop off and pick up, vet visit transportation and attendance, medication administration and bathing are also offered. I am also available for meet and greets preceding scheduled services. I am available on nights, weekends and holidays. I DO NOT board more than one family’s dogs at a time. Therefore, you do not have to worry about safety. It is in the best interest of your fur baby to not be exposed to others in which could result in physical injury and or harm and or contagious illnesses. Rest assured, your fur babies are completely safe with me. Pictures and reports of your fur babies are sent to you on a daily basis! Fur babies should feel loved and cared for in the absence of their owners much like a doggie vaca! An experienced pet sitter that you can get to know, trust and feel comfortable with whom is much like family is a necessity! I work in the medical field and have the ability to adjust my flexible schedule to accommodate my pet clients needs and or requests on a client to client basis. At the present time-I am not offering boarding services in my home. I believe pets feel more comfortable and at ease in their own homes where they are familiar with their surroundings and specific care instructions will vary per client request which is discussed during our meet and greet session.
About: Growing up with both dogs & cats my entire life, I’ve been around a variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I work well with every animal I come across and enjoy caring for any & all — this includes experience with puppy care & training! I’m kind, fun-loving, sociable, and can adapt based on an animal’s needs. I lead with compassion for animals & their owns alike. From family to friends, I always ensure your fur baby is looked after with the utmost of care. As I’m currently working from home, I am readily available for walks, check-ins, house sitting, and boarding throughout the day/night. Overnight stays are no issue here either! Depending on the instructions received from the owner(s), I will be sure to follow any necessary requirements to ensure your pet is looked after & loved for the time that I am there. Whether it’s forms of training, being let in & out, walks, check-ins, etc. - nothing is ever too much. Favorite treats, toys & activities are to be followed to make sure your pet (or pets) is as comfortable & happy as can be!
About: Having had both a pet cat and dog since I was a young child, I have a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. This firsthand experience sets me apart as a pet sitter, as I am passionate about providing them with love and attention, and I have special skills in caring for cats and dogs of all ages. I have also been trusted by family and friends to take care of their pets for extended periods of time. You can trust that your pet will receive top-notch care and affection under my watch! I have a flexible schedule this summer that allows me to prioritize pet care. Additionally, I am available to accommodate unexpected events or emergencies, ensuring that pets receive the care they need when they need it. When caring for pets, I prioritize their safety, trust, and well-being. In the client's home, I maintain their pet's routine and preferences, ensuring a familiar and stress-free experience. With attention to their needs and lots of love, I create a comfortable environment where pets can thrive.
About: I am very flexible and easy to get in contact with. I had my own dog since I was a child and lived 3 years with my sisters cat. I’m currently working a stay at home job so I can take your pet out for daily potty breaks if needed or stay at your place if you would prefer. I am happy to help in any way I can and make your pet feel as comfortable as possible in whatever environment possible : )

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Horseshoe Bay is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $30 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,176 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Horseshoe Bay. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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.
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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
