About: I’ve taken care of animals including dogs cats rabbits for friends throughout my military career. From kittens and puppies to senior animals. I’ve helped break bad habits such as jumping and potty accidents in the house. I’m currently a stay at home mom so I can take care of your fur baby anytime of the week. I’ll show them the love and care the fur babies babies deserve. I have a big fenced in backyard with dogs that can play or not with yours. I also have two cats that do their own things. I can crate as well if wanted.
“Evelyn did a great job taking care of my dog while I was gone. She had really great communication and provide cute pictures. It made me feel at ease while I was gone. My dog loved her as well! I will definitely recommend her and be using her again!”
“Brianna was such a life saver. I know it can be overwhelming with my pit bulls but she handled everything so gracefully. One of my pups had an accident in her cage which is so unusual but Brianna went above and beyond to clean her and the cage out for me. I’m blessed to have had an amazing Rover helper. She is awesome! She adjusted to the pups so well. I’m sure they miss her already! Will definitely recommend her services!”
“Diana accepted a last minute emergency request and took care of my three dogs in less than an hour and a half from when I’d requested help. She took great care of all of them and sent really cute pictures! Would definitely book with her again.”
About: Hi there! I work from home and recently lost my soul dog to cancer. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I’d love the opportunity to open my home and heart to your furry family members. My husband, Chris, and I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where pets are treated like family. Whether you’re traveling or working long hours, we’ll make sure your pup receives plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and care while you’re away. We have a fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for safe outdoor fun, and dogs are always welcome on the furniture because we believe they’re part of the family. Our home also includes a friendly outdoor tortoise, Luna, who enjoys soaking up the sunshine in the backyard. We provide the best experience for each guest, we offer optional 30-minute walks for $10 in addition to regular potty breaks and backyard playtime. We’d be honored to care for your pet and help them feel right at home while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! ❤️ I work from home, so pets fit perfectly into my day! We start with morning outdoor time, then lots of play breaks and cuddles throughout the day. I’m around for regular potty breaks, attention, and love your pets will feel right at home with me. In my home, pets are treated like family! They can relax on the furniture, play in the fenced yard, and get plenty of love and attention all day. When caring for pets in your home, I will try and follow your routine to keep them happy, comfortable, and stress-free.
“Kitty loved having Megan check in on her! It was such a relief to know she was well taken care of while I was gone. I’ll definitely be using Megan again in the future!”
“Hannah always makes us feel so comfortable while away. She provides us the most thorough updates on our sweet boy and we know he’s always in good hands with her. Thank you Hannah!”
“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.”
“Bailey is super communicative and reliable! She sends pictures and is completely trustworthy & I will hire her again and again! I highly recommend her!”
“Velma was great with both of my dogs, she kept me updated with photos and messages. She hand feed them a few times since they didn’t want to eat on their own. She did very good taking care of them.”
“Flor is absolutely the sweetest! Our picky fur babies opened up to her quickly! I reached out to Flor very short notice and the whole meet/greet and visit went far smoother than the day trip my husband and I had lol Thank you, Miss Flor!”
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 extensive hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs and cats, including large breeds, senior pets, animals with arthritis or mobility limitations, and pets that require consistent medication routines. I am patient, organized, attentive, and comfortable following detailed instructions for feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, medications, comfort, and household routines. I understand that every animal has a different personality, energy level, and comfort zone. I focus on creating a calm, dependable environment rather than forcing interaction. I also provide clear updates and photos so pet parents know how their animals are doing while they are away. My current schedule is flexible, and I can accommodate daytime drop-ins, evening visits, overnight stays, and selected weekends with advance notice. I plan bookings carefully around my own pets so I can provide dependable, unhurried care. I confirm arrival and departure expectations beforehand and communicate promptly if anything changes. I follow each pet parent’s instructions closely and keep safety at the center of every visit. I check doors, gates, leashes, harnesses, food, water, medications, bathroom habits, mobility, and behavior. I never introduce unfamiliar animals or change a pet’s routine without permission. In a client’s home, I respect their privacy, maintain a clean environment, and make sure the property is secure before leaving. I provide timely updates and contact the owner immediately if I notice anything unusual.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kirby
Evelyn was great! She came last-minute and had no issues accommodating my 9 year-old Belgian Malinois and my 7 year-old Husky, and it was a bonus she wasn't afraid of them and that they loved her so much! Plus my cat seemed to approve of her. Would definitely book again in the future for another long work day
Taylor was amazing! She was very professional and accommodating. She made fast friends with my dogs and the pictures she sent of them were the highlight of my day! I will absolutely be booking her in the future and I would recommend her to anyone who needs a caring and attentive sitter for their pets!
Shelby was absolutely wonderful! She was attentive, punctual, and so easy to communicate with. We had complete peace of mind while we were away and didn’t have a single issue. She made everything so easy and stress-free, and we would absolutely trust her to watch Maya again. Highly recommend!
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! ❤️
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!
April was amazing! From the moment I met her she was so nice and energetic of taking care of my fur babies! She followed directions, was on time, was respectful, and took pictures of my babies while on vacation. She gave me a comfort during my time away that they were in good hands. Definetly recommend and will book again in the future 😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Kirby on Rover is $17.76 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 Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,091 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kirby. 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 Kirby 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.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kirby. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
