About: I am very patient and understanding with dogs and cats and always have a soft spot for animals. I have experience working with older dogs and medication they might need. I am working around a few different aspects such as college schooling, some social gatherings with friends, and overall business. Many weekends I am free and some weekdays I am also free. I do not own any pets but I did watch my friend’s family dogs for many years. I have had a dog and a cat in the past.
About: ● Over the past 12+ years, caring for my rescue dog, Emory, and many other dogs has given me hands-on experience with dogs of all personalities, sizes, routines, and care needs. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, giving medications, managing and following special diets & feeding routines, and adapting care for dogs with physical limitations or special routines. ● I pay close attention to body language and behavior, using patience and adjusting my approach to each dog’s comfort level. Whether a dog is confident and playful or shy and anxious, I let them move at their own pace and focus on building trust rather than forcing interactions or commands. Owners often tell me they're surprised by how quickly their typically reserved or anxious dogs warm up to me! ● Safety is always my top priority, so I'm very mindful of secure leash handling during walks, preventing escapes, monitoring interactions with people and other dogs, keeping anything they could eat or get into out of reach, and paying attention to the weather and each dog's energy level and physical abilities. ● I also take the time to notice changes in behavior or routine that could indicate a dog is feeling stressed, uncomfortable, or unwell. I'm communicative and will always keep you updated with how things are going and anything that needs your attention. ● I believe great pet care comes from being observant, patient, and treating every dog as an individual! ● I work from home with a flexible schedule, so aside from the occasional errands or plans, I'm home during the day & evening. ● Being home helps make it easy for me to stick to your dog's normal feeding schedule, medication times, potty routine, and any exercise or activity. ● Your dog gets plenty of companionship, attention, and frequent potty breaks all throughout the day instead of being left alone for long stretches. ● I'm open to last-minute requests so your pup isn't left high and dry! ● My home is a calm, comfortable place where dogs can relax and settle into a predictable routine. I intentionally host just one household at a time, so your dog can enjoy a low-stress stay without unfamiliar people or dogs coming and going. ● Dogs have access to a fully fenced yard and doggie door, and I can provide frequent potty breaks for dogs who don't use one. ● Emory is my 8 y/o rescue (and the calm, steady presence of our home!). He's incredibly tolerant and respectful of other dogs, whether they love to play, prefer their own space, or just enjoy quietly coexisting. He's submissive by nature, doesn't escalate interactions, and lets other dogs set the pace. ● For walks and drop-ins, I follow your instructions closely, respect your home, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain your dog's normal routine as closely as possible.
“Trinity was great to work with. She help put my mind at ease as this was the first time I was leaving my babies on a trip and the updates she sent were great! Definitely recommend her!”
“Rory was great with my two small pups, and they're the skittish type! She was real sweet wuth them, and jept me in the loop through out the visits. I'll definitely be using her again <3”
“Rebekah was FANTASTIC! She took so much time to make sure our pets weren’t just comfortable, but loved and happy while we were away. She paid close attention to instructions, and went above and beyond in every way. The pets all looked so happy in the photos she sent. I would recommend her in a heartbeat!!”
“My wife and I are so grateful for the care and attention Riley gave our pups while we were at the festival this weekend. The piece of mind from the prompt updates were great, and he worked with our last minute schedule to come and visit the dogs beforehand to talk to us about their care instructions and meet them for the first time with us present. We highly recommend his services and we will be repeat clients.”
“Amber was extremely caring and flexible even after a mistake on our end with our address being labeled incorrectly. She astounded us by being over and above in her care for Bill. We felt very grateful that she was able to care for him over the holiday weekend.”
“Page was excellent! She came to meet the cats and I before sitting them and it was super helpful to me. She was reliable & I can tell she loves and cares animals very much! I would definitely recommend working w Page!”
“Makayla has great communication and took great care of my kitten! She’s very trustworthy and left my home clean and organized after her visit. Would 100% recommend and will be booking with her again in the future.”
“Alexandra was absolutely amazing! A godsend- we were able to book her on short notice. She sent tons of pics of the doggies, and took very good care of them. This was our first time using rover, and we couldn’t have been more happy!”
“Doray was fantastic! She came over for an initial meet to get acquainted before our scheduled visits started, which I think is very kind. She kept in touch the right amount and always sent photos. Our usually shy cat warmed up to her and ran to greet her at the door. Would recommend and would be happy to hire again. :)”
“Savannah and Gabriel were great, they sent photos of Otis at every check in, which we really appreciated it. This was our first time ever leaving Otis alone, and using Rover. I was very anxious about it, but Gabriel really made us feel like Otis was in great hands. He was kind and met with us previous to our trip, and made sure Otis recognized his scent and felt comfortable with him. We would 100% recommend them, and if we ever need it, we would go with Savannah and Gabriel again.”
“Kayla was very attentive with chicken, chicken enjoyed her treats and pet pets. Everything went according to plan. Will request Kayla to visit kitties again in the future.”

“I wish i could give Julie a 100 stars. She handled the full range of possibilites when it came to caring for my birds and fish. Going over and beyond is an understatement. She is absolutely amazing and will provide your pet with the utmost care and attention he/she deserves. I wish i found her years ago!”
About: I’ve always had a dog, they are may fav!! My most important title is dog mom!! Caring for dogs is part of my usual daily routine Available prior to work (6-8am), after work (4-10) and on the weekends. I do work during the day but am flexible!! :) I can stop in and hang out, go for walks, etc. Love to go for walks, cuddle, and vibe at home with the dogs! I have dogs of my own but look forward to caring for others dogs as well.
“Thank you once again for the wonderful care of our cat and dog. I love that we come home to them missing us, but in a happy way. Nick is reliable, communicates well, and does the work to win over our pets every time he cares for them. The walks and snuggles help our little guy with his anxiety. I highly recommend Nick and will book him again when we travel.”

Can’t thank Rory enough for the care they provided our cat! Every day we got a thorough report about his wellbeing, and they really went above and beyond our expectations. Rory will definitely be the first person we contact any time we have to be away from home. Can’t recommend them enough!!
I can't recommend booking Brenda enough! I felt completely comfortable leaving my boys (🐶🐶) in Brenda’s care. She is kind, communicative, and clearly loves animals. My boys were not only looked after, but treated with genuine love and attention. Brenda sent me regular updates and photos that gave me a complete peace of mind while I was away, and I could tell my boys were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I couldn't have asked for a better experience, and I'll definitely be booking with her again because my boys love her. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly passionate about animals, Brenda is the pet sitter to choose. Thanks Brenda for loving my boys!
Riley is exactly the type of person you want taking care of your pup. He communicates really well, he's very accommodating and adaptable, knows how to handle dogs of all varieties and personalities, and he has that charm and calm that my dog Mona absolutely adores. Highly recommend!
Alexandra took great care of our cats! One of our cats is notoriously shy and afraid of strangers but he warmed up to Alexandra immediately and really took to her over the few days that we were gone. It made us so happy to know that Jack was comfortable and getting such great care. Thank you again Alexandra!
Abigail was absolutely amazing! She visited my home for a meet & greet before my 10-day trip, sent daily updates with photos, and even brought in a bunch of packages so they wouldn’t get wet in the rain. She stayed long enough to supervise some outdoor time for my kitty, and based on the photos I know he was happy and well taken care of :) I would 100% book with Abigail again!
Martyna did a great job! She was punctual, communicative, and gave my pets lots of love while we were away. We really appreciated all the updates and photos. We came home to happy pets, and it was clear they had been in great hands! Looking forward to having Martyna watch our pets again.
Amber was extremely caring and flexible even after a mistake on our end with our address being labeled incorrectly. She astounded us by being over and above in her care for Bill. We felt very grateful that she was able to care for him over the holiday weekend.
This was our first time using a pet sitter and had so many requests for our sweet Bella. Maura was more than happy to make sure Bella had her puppy diapers on, was attentive, prompt for every visit, made sure our home was just as we left it. She sent us daily pictures and updates on how Bella was doing. She even added water to our pool when it was running low! Overall, she was such a pleasure to have watching our sweet Bella. I highly recommend her! We will definitely use her again!

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 Manchaca 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 Manchaca. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
