About: Going on vacation, need a getaway, or just take a break? Trustworthy and reliable house and pet sitter can help. Need a companion to supervise your kids, pets, and elderly family? Caring for your loved ones at home, while they do their normal routine and activities, to be cozy and comfortable. I love being around people, kids, and pets doing activities, conversing, or just quietly keeping them company, if preferred. My experience includes property management, substituting in public schools, volunteer at animal shelters and rescues, helped with community cats, and also watch my own critters along with friends and family. I do have a part-time property management career during the day but can schedule you early mornings and late afternoon evenings, as well as weekends, and holidays. Visits and tasks are personalized with your instructions, to meet your needs. Let me know if I can assist you with anything and get some spare time on your hands to do more!
“Claudia always takes great care of my dogs while I'm away. I can tell my pups are happy when she visits them and she keeps me updated with cute photos and videos. Thanks Claudia!”
About: My mission is to provide reliable, attentive care and treat every pet like they’re my own! I have grown up with both cats and dogs, granting me more experience and a deeper love for all animals! I have experience caring for pets of different ages, personalities, and needs, including energetic puppies and senior pets. I work to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away by keeping consistent routines, giving plenty of attention, and providing regular updates for peace of mind. I recently just finished my spring semester of school and set to start online summer classes on May 26, so I have plenty of free time to look and care after your furry babies! I care for every pet like they’re my own and always try to keep them comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. In a client’s home, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, feeding, fresh water, and any needed medications while also keeping the home clean and respected.
“Mercy was very nice and set up a meet and greet with us and our dog before we booked the dates. Was very thoughtful of our pet and set pictures through the week.”
“Kate is awesome!!!! First time using this app and she's been dropping in to visit my dog for a while now and its been such a great experience! She sends pics and videos when she can ? I would definitely recommend her to everyone!! ”
“Samantha is one of the best cat sitter's. She takes time with my babies and always makes sure they are cared for and have everything they need. I highly recommend her.”
“He did an amazing job pet sitting my cat! I got daily updates and pictures so I could see he was being loved and cared for. He followed all the instructions perfectly and gave us the peace of mind we needed on our vacation! Would recommend Patrick to anyone who needed someone to pet sit their cat!”
About: I've spent several years caring for both dogs and cats through pet ownership and pet sitting, and I truly love getting to know each animal's unique personality. I've owned dogs of all sizes—from a corgi to a Saint Bernard—so I'm comfortable with pets of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I have an extensive history of pet sitting for a variety of clients while in high school and in college, and for the past several months, I've also been pet sitting for physicians in the San Antonio Medical Center, and I've really enjoyed helping give them peace of mind while they're away! I'm happy to help with just about any pet-sitting need, whether that's drop-in visits, daycare, overnight stays, or house sitting. I'm also open to caring for all kinds of animals, not just dogs and cats! My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away, and to keep you updated so you know they're in good hands. I can't wait to meet you and your pets and give them the same love and attention I'd give my own! I am currently a medical student, but have a pretty light course load this semester! I am typically in class some days of the week from 8am-12pm but am pretty available otherwise! I have no problem stopping by before and after my classes if needed on the days that I am in class (typically 3/7 days of the week). I am very flexible with whatever the rules/ preferences for each pet may be within their house! I understand that each family has different routines with their pets and have no problem doing my best to accommodate them! I also prefer to keep in frequent contact with the owners I have sat for in the past with texts and photos to send updates!
“Paige was wonderful with Maisie, she’s a rescue dog and very nervous. Paige was very patient. We will be booking Paige again so that Maisie can get to know her better in order for her to house sit when we need to be away over night.”
“Kat was fantastic with completing drop-in visits for my cats throughout the week. Provided excellent care and very flexible with my last-minute scheduling and needing care. My cats were content and well-cared. Highly recommended for anyone needing a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
“Mandi was great! She took much care with our pets and it was much appreciated. She checked in before we left, took pictures throughout each of her visits and was awesome with them.”
“Eva took great care of our kitty. The photos and updates she sent consistently showed how engaged and attentive she was, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was friendly, professional, and clearly very experienced with pets. We would absolutely book with her again for future needs.”
“JP is one of the sweetest and reliable sitter I have ever had. My little Precious really warmed up to and I couldn’t be happier. I will book him every time if he is available and I highly recommend him.”
About: Hi everyone! I’m Ayanna. I am well-versed with pet care, as I have raised my own dog over 13 years, he passed in 2023. I am cat owner of 2 years as well. I have dog and cat sat for family members and friends over the years, and now Rover clients! I’ve administered medication to pets, walked pets, bathed pets and have learned to work with picky, high energy and nervous pups :) Bonus: I taught my dog a handful of tricks! And I taught my cat how to walk outside with a harness I have an open availability for the summer as a current educational professional who is off work. I am able to do drop ins and walks morning and night. I am compassionate and intuitive and will try to get a sense for your pets needs and deliver. Safety comes first and I will always make sure your pet is secured when on walks and that any fencing is closed if roaming free. I love to give pets lots of attention, with tons of walks, pets and play times. I like to talk to animals and learn how they communicate their wants and needs!
“We are so lucky to have Jen as our pet sitter! She is wonderful with our cats, even when they are being difficult. She goes above and beyond to take care of all their needs 🥰”

About: Caring for animals brings me joy. I will take the time to get to know your pet and let your pet get to know me. I have been caring for animals for 6 years. I am happy to help with training routines-including potty training. I walk dogs and play with with pets to keep them active and busy. I work well with multiple pets as well. I will come to you, stay in your home or check in as desired My primary work is animal care. This means that I have great flexibility to include overnight options. Logistics and planning arey strong suits, meaning I can manage the care of multiple pets at a time. I will care for your pets in the environment they feel best in- your home. I will check in, walk, feed and play. I also clean and care for any pet accessories (litter boxes, fish tanks, etc).
About: I have taken care of tons of breeds of dogs and cats my entire life. I also frequently dog sit for my aunts puppy from 8 weeks to 6 months. I have house sat for several people and watched their cats and dogs while they were away. I have trained seven puppies into full well behaved dogs. I grew up in a vet clinic and learned a lot of knowledgeable information for animals. I have a huge heart and treat every single animal as if they were mine own with the utmost care for them. I currently work a flexible job and will be able to be present for your pets! I will try to keep their routine as similar to their normal schedule as possible. I have a big fenced in yard and a sweet senior border collie. There is plenty of place for the dog to get their energy out and have a safe space. I have cats as well who are well socialized with dogs and get along with all puppies. I will strictly abide by your standards of living for your puppy. For example, if your dog requires a special diet and to be taken out every hour, I will ensure that is done as well as making them feel loved and comfortable while being away from their owners and home.
About: I have been exposed to caring for rescue animals of all kinds (dogs, cats, birds, horses) for most of my life. I am very capable of learning quickly how to take care of your pet with different needs and am able to pay attention to small details for taking care of your pet. I have pet sat for many family and friends, sometimes taking care of up to 6 pets. I have experience in administering oral medication for dogs and cats and disinfecting and bandaging injuries or cuts on dogs, big and small. I am not working at the moment, so I am able to take care of your pets most days of the week and most hours of the day. I am flexible, and I am usually able to go for a job on a shorter notice. I currently have 2 cats and 5 dogs, all different ages and temperaments. They are all pretty lazy for the most part, but they do love to spend time in our backyard, sniffing, rolling around, or just sunbathing. They have a loose schedule they like to follow, so for your pet I would love to do the same!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Leon Valley
Addison was amazing with my dogs! Words cant express enough how greatful I am to have found her, she was patient, kind, affectionate and my dogs loved her. She is truly am asset to this company and deserves nothing less than 100 stars and a raise! I highly recommend her and hope to have her watch the fur babies again when we are out of town. Thanks a million times over Addison for just being you, Amazing!!!
Sonia went above and beyond in watching our pets. When presented with several unforeseen difficulties, including leaving the wrong key and my cat not eating, Sonia went out of her way to communicate and brainstorm with me to find the best solutions and care for my fur babies. Sonia even made an extra trip out to my apartment to ensure my pets got fed, went potty, felt loved, and had good playtime. Sonia did an amazing job with my girls and I would highly recommend her to others!
We had a wonderful experience with Sophia! She came twice a day to check on our dog, Loki, and was always punctual, attentive, and communicative. Loki is usually very timid around new people, but he warmed up to her almost immediately, which speaks volumes about how caring and trustworthy she is. It gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I would definitely recommend her for daily check-ins, pet sitting, or any pet care needs!
Ryann saved the day! On a 2 day notice that our original sitter wasn’t going to be able to take care of our dogs. I messaged Ryann the same day to do a couple drop in visits over the weekend and she came through despite prior commitments. We owe you so big. Thank you.
Brenda was an absolute professional when taking care of my pets. She was on time, caring and went above and beyond my expectations. We will 100% ask for her help in the future. She was wonderful. Thank you for taking care of our babies! It takes sooooo much pressure off of leaving them knowing someone so kind is caring for them.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Leon Valley 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 Leon Valley 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 .

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.

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.
