About: Years of experience taking care of my own cats. I have had several throughout the years as well as dogs. Love all animals like they were my own My schedule is flexible, so I have more than enough time to play with your cats and dogs when needed and show them the love they need. I would care for your pets in your home as if they were my own, with love and compassion. I would make sure they felt loved and cared for.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I grew up with both dogs and cats, and for the past 7 years, I’ve cared for my own pets. I currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routine. I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and ages, including Chows and Pit Bulls. I’m comfortable walking dogs, administering medications, caring for pets with medical needs, and handling seizures. I enjoy everything from active walks and playtime to quiet companionship and providing extra patience when needed. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll treat yours with the same love, attention, and care I give my own. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting throughout the week. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as staying in your home to keep your pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m happy to work with your schedule and your pet’s specific needs to provide consistent, reliable, and loving care! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for someone’s pets. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow their instructions closely, maintain their pets’ normal routines, and keep their environment clean and safe. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and anything that could pose a safety risk. I also understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable in their own environment, especially when their owners are away. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands. I treat every pet as if they were my own and want both you and your pets to feel comfortable and cared for!

About: What sets me apart is the combination of a genuinely flexible schedule, a safe fenced home environment, and two friendly resident dogs who help new pets settle in quickly and feel less anxious. I'm patient and attentive with dogs of all ages and energy levels—comfortable with the extra patience senior dogs often need (mobility, medication reminders, gentler walks) as well as the consistency and structure young or newly-trained pups thrive on. I treat every pet like my own, prioritize their normal routine, and communicate closely with owners throughout their stay. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I have a flexible schedule. I build my days around consistent feeding times, walks, and playtime, so your pet gets reliable attention whenever they need it—morning, midday, or evening. My home has a fenced yard and two friendly dogs for safe, supervised play. I closely monitor interactions, follow your pet's routine, and can crate them if needed for comfort.

I have owned and cared for dogs from all ages, from 8 weeks puppies to 17 year old doggies! I currently work part time remotely, so I am very flexible with days and time.

“Thank you Kara for taking care of Gabby! She loved her visits very much. She’s a happy girl! Appreciate your posting photos of her playing and walking. We’ll book with you again when we are here.”
About: I had my own dog for 10 years and she recently passed away. I'm not in a position to get a new dog, so I'm excited to give your dog some love and attention! I have experience with dog-aggressive dogs, seniors and medication administration. I work full time remotely so I can easily fit your pets into my schedule. I can do early, lunchtime, or dinner visits to meet your pet's needs. When staying in your home, I would treat it as my own. I can water plants, check the mail - anything you need taken care of while you're away, in addition to loving on and taking care of your pets.
About: Took care of both my dog and cat together, they have since passed. My favorite part of the day was coming home to them and giving each of them play time and a walk for my dog. My husband and I just moved here. I am a new mom to a 4 month old baby and would love an excuse to love on some animals and get some extra steps in the day as well. I do not have anything animals of my own so your sweet animal will be my focus during our time together! I will walk your pup or play with your cat and clean up after them as needed.
About: I’ve been house sitting on and off for almost two years! I’ve grown up with pets my whole life (I’ve had dogs, cats, and even a lizard!) I absolutely love animals, and growing up I was taught that our pets were part of the family, and I live by that sentiment now as an adult. Currently, I am a full-time student and I also work a part-time job, which can make it hard to be available for extensive periods of time. However, I am extremely flexible in going back and forth from multiple responsibilities, and have no issue sitting overnight! I think as much as it is important to meet all of your pets basic needs, it is equally as important to make sure they get plenty of attention while their owners are away. In the past, I’ve spent any time I could playing with my pets and keeping them company as they await the return of their owners.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - New Braunfels
Hanna was a fantastic caretaker for our dog, cat, and 8 chickens! She did drop-in visits while we were on vacation and always showed up on time and sent me pictures of my critters. She communicated with me every day to let me know how they were doing and I felt great knowing everything was taken care of while we were away!
Kylie absolutely saved the day. After a neighbor we trusted to watch our dogs failed us, Kylie stepped in on short notice and went above and beyond to make sure our pets were safe and cared for. We can’t thank her enough and will be using her every time we need a sitter.

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.
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 New Braunfels 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 .
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
