About: Hi! I’m a reliable and detail-oriented pet sitter based in the Woodlake/Converse/Universal City area. I work full-time during the week, so I specialize in evening and weekend care, which is perfect for busy schedules or travel. I have my own dog and understand how important routine, safety, and consistency are. I’m comfortable with different temperaments and always take the time to make sure each pet feels secure and cared for. I offer: • evening drop-ins and walks • weekend check-ins (multiple visits per day if needed) • weekend pet sitting I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet is comfortable and your routine is maintained as closely as possible. I have access to military bases- so I am capable of attending to pets on base! I’m especially available for last-minute weekend plans. I do my best to accommodate last-minute bookings when available. For house sitting, I appreciate at least 24 hours notice when possible so I can plan around my schedule and my own dog. I work fulltime during the week, so my availability is some evenings after 5pm during the weekdays, but flexible availability on the weekends. I tried reflecting that onto my Rover calendar- but please don't hesitate to reach out with questions regarding my availability. ***Please Note: I have military base access- for military clients as well! I do have a fenced in backyard and a custom dog door in my own place. For in home visits, I would ensure pets receive the appropriate amount of outside and potty time, playtime, attention, food, clean water, and additional care as required. I would follow instructions given by owners if dog walking is requested- as I know people have preferences for how their dog receives exercise. The same level of care is given to cats as well- of course their needs may differ. Any accidents or messes made by pets during my care, I will clean to the best of my abilities.
About: I have a lifelong passion for animals and grew up surrounded by dogs, which taught me the responsibility and patience required to be a great caregiver. My experience ranges from energetic small breeds to powerful large dogs, so I am comfortable and confident handling pets of all sizes. I also have a soft spot for senior dogs and understand the gentle touch and extra attention they often need to feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet needs a high-energy walk to burn off steam or a calm presence to sit and play with them at home, I prioritize their safety and happiness above all else. I pride myself on being reliable and attentive to each dog’s unique personality and routine. I’m excited to provide your pets with the same love and care I’ve given my own throughout my life! I have a very pet-friendly schedule! I work from home every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, which allows me to provide your pet with constant companionship and potty breaks throughout the day. While I am typically in the office on Mondays and Fridays, I have the flexibility to work from home on those days as well with a little bit of notice. Your pet will rarely be alone. Because I don’t currently have pets of my own, your pet becomes my sole priority and receives my 100% undivided attention. In your home, I focus on maintaining their established routine to keep them stress-free. Whether it’s high-energy walks and active play or simply hanging out in their space to provide a calm presence, I adapt to their vibe. I’m happy to offer a 'hands-on' approach for cuddlers or a hands-off approach for more independent pets, and I am always flexible with special accommodations to ensure they feel safe and cared for.
“Melisa was prompt and communicative, responded quickly to a last minute booking request that came up for unexpectedly - overall a great experience. I would book again when the opportunity arises.”


About: I have dog sat for a variety of breeds in 3 different countries of the span of 7 years ( Korea, Belgium, and America) .I have watched dogs anywhere from one day to a month at a time. Exercise is something I am into, so your dog will never be bored! I am currently a college student. With only two classes in person, and a pretty flexible schedule! If schedule conflicts arise that will be communicated I have a fenced yard, large neighbourhood for long walks, and nearby parks. Very dog friendly neighbourhood. Your dog will be in very good hands!
“I cannot recommend Nimsi highly enough! From the very beginning, she was professional, reliable, and incredibly caring with my cat. While I was away, she consistently provided updates, photos, and detailed notes that gave me complete peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about my pet's well-being and wasn't just stopping by to complete a task. What truly stood out was how she went above and beyond. She paid attention to the little details, made sure everything was taken care of, and treated my cat with the same kindness and affection I would have. Coming home to a happy, relaxed pet and a well-cared-for home made all the difference. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and genuinely compassionate, I would absolutely book with her again without hesitation. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my furry family member! Maraming salamat po sa inyong kabutihan at pag-aalaga. Talagang pinahahalagahan ko ang lahat ng inyong ginawa. Nawa'y pagpalain kayo palagi! ❤️”


About: I have had a dog since I was five, giving me many years of experience taking care of and cleaning up after a dog. I have also had many friends and neighbors with dogs, and I always love getting to spend time with their pets! I have trained my dog as well as a couple of other puppies to do some tricks. I have also had experience with administering different kinds of medication to my dog, such as eye drops, oral medications, or tick meds. I am currently in school, but I can work in walks and drop-in visits to help you care for your pups! I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I am willing to travel to you and take your dog out for a walk and playtime, or feed them. I am also willing to administer medications to them if necessary and care for senior dogs. Overall, I want to provide your dogs a good time!
About: As a dedicated Pet Service Specialist with over 3 years of experience, I have had the privilege of elevating animal care standards and creating nurturing environments at a local animal shelter. My training and mentorship under some of the top professionals in the San Antonio pet care industry have equipped me with extensive skills in pet enrichment, dog walking, sanitation protocols, medical administration, and even pet photography. On top of my professional experience, I am a proud dog owner of 3 amazing pups who are my entire world. My passion for animals goes beyond work—it's my way of life. Let me bring that love and expertise to your pets, ensuring they receive the highest level of care and attention they deserve! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. With open availability, I’m able to dedicate time to each pet's unique needs, whether it's taking dogs for walks, providing enrichment activities, or ensuring they get plenty of playtime and attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel loved and cared for throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent and reliable care, whether it’s a quick drop-in visit or longer, more interactive sessions. Pet care is not just a job—it's a passion that I prioritize in my everyday life! When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize creating a comfortable and stress-free environment for both the pets and their owners. I follow each pet's routine closely, providing the same level of care they’re accustomed to, whether it's through regular walks, playtime, or administering medication as needed. I also ensure that their space is clean and safe, following proper sanitation protocols to keep things tidy and hygienic. As someone who’s been trained in pet enrichment and medical administration, I offer a well-rounded approach to pet care, ensuring each pet’s physical, emotional, and health needs are met. Plus, with my open availability, I’m able to offer flexible care that fits seamlessly into their routine.
“Katie was so sweet with our pups and so flexible with their particular needs, especially our old grandma dog. Her communication is great and you can tell she cares about what she does.”

“Brianna did so well with my pups! There was an issue on my end and she helped me out a TON and was still able to take good care of my babies. Definitely recommend!”

About: Hi! My name is Victoria, and caring for animals has always been something I’m deeply passionate about. I have over 5 years of hands-on experience working with both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I also have professional experience working at a doggy daycare, where I learned how to safely handle multiple dogs, understand animal behavior, maintain clean environments, and provide attentive care in fast-paced settings. In addition to daycare experience, I’ve fostered kittens and cared for animals with a variety of needs, including administering medications through pills, liquids, and injections. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, meal prep, litter box cleaning, accident clean-up, dog walking, enrichment activities, and trips to dog parks. I understand that every pet has their own personality, comfort level, and routine, and I always do my best to make them feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs patience, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. I know pets are family, so I’ll care for yours with the same love, attention, and respect I would want for my own. I also love keeping owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work part-time only 3 days a week and have a very flexible schedule outside of that, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. Because I don’t have many outside commitments, I’m able to be reliable, attentive, and flexible with visits, walks, feedings, playtime, medication schedules, and check-ins. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make it a priority in my routine rather than just treating it like a job. I’m able to provide pets with lots of attention, companionship, and consistency throughout the day, and I always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my main priority is to keep their routine as consistent, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, litter box cleaning, medication needs, and any special care routines each pet requires. For cats, I make sure their environment stays clean and calm by scooping litter boxes regularly, refreshing food and water, and giving them attention based on their personality—whether that means interactive play, gentle companionship, or simply respecting their space. I also monitor their behavior and wellbeing to make sure they’re eating, using the litter box normally, and staying comfortable while their owners are away. For dogs, I focus on maintaining their routine through regular walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and enrichment activities. I also make sure they are safe on walks, properly exercised based on their energy level, and given plenty of attention and affection. In every visit, I treat the home with respect, keep everything clean and organized, and provide updates with messages and photos so owners feel reassured. My goal is always to make pets feel secure in their own environment while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being cared for with attention, patience, and love.
“Dawn was wonderful and very accommodating for the fur babies. Always responded in a timely manner and would keep us updated to her status as well. We were at ease during our travels and upon return our dogs were in great condition and relaxed, almost as if we never left. Thanks Dawn!”

“Destiny went above and beyond while watching Jager. Having her spend quality time with him, waking and playing tug-o-war, made me so comfortable while I was away. I would definitely recommend her and book her again for another trip.”

About: Very active individual who loves to walk, run, and care for any type of pet. I have experience in dog boarding and also offer pick up / drop off within 15mile radius. I work a 9-5 so dog sitting any day of the week is not an issue! I will take care of your fur baby like one of my own. I have a fenced backyard and camera monitoring too! There are stairs but I do have a gate to avoid pets from going upstairs and my room is downstairs so it works out perfect!

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 7 years and have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I got my first cat at 9 years old. I adore the companionship and love animals give. Some of my best memories are centered around a fur baby and I’d love to make some memories with yours! I’m currently working full time but am able to check on during my lunch break and after work. My schedule on the weekends is very flexible and I’m typically available all day. Your pet will be my top priority when I am with them. I care for orher people's pets the same as I do mine because animals deserve love and safety. I will always listen to your instructions but I would love to give them treats, extra hugs, playtime and walks. I don’t mind changing litter boxes and I will always make sure their living area is kept clean and that they have enough food and water.

About: I've taken care of my own dogs, as well as my mom's dogs since I was 12. I've also potty trained my mom's 6 month old puppies. I'm currently a full time college student, so I'll be dog sitting between schedules. In order to ensure the best care for your pets I will not book if I believe I'm not the best fit for their needs. For my personal pets, I have a backyard for them and take them on occasional walks in the neighborhood when it's not too hot out for us. I am able to fit requests or accommodations asked of me.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kirby
Luis was excellent! He took extra steps to make sure my boys were comfortable when there was fireworks going outside when he didn’t have to. Luis was professional and my boys seemed to really like him. I would 100% recommend him to anyone in need of his services!

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 Kirby 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.

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.

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.
