“I really appreciate how after every visit she gives a summary WITH pictures of what happened, like how much they ate, if they played or cuddled, plus funny side notes. She is very informative, a fast replier, and updates daily. This sets her apart from any pet sitter I’ve used! My scaredy cats love her!!! This is my 3rd time booking with Victoria, and will be booking again.”
“Great Sitter!! I really appreciate her help watching over our pets and a new little kitten we found before w left, she kept us in the loop and made us feel better about leaving all of them!”
“Danielle is truly a cat whisperer. Somehow, she coaxed my shy kitten out to play on her very first visit! She spent so much time and attention with her, and the wonderful photos she sent gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It's such a relief to have a trusted partner helping care for my energetic little kitten. I am deeply grateful to have found someone so responsible, dedicated, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. I couldn't recommend Danielle more highly.”
About: I have experience with diabetic and blind dogs, my late dog Tink had diabetes for 7 years until she passed. I love taking dogs on walks and getting to see them explore nature! I am working part time at my job, I have open availability every wednesday until 3pm. I get my work schedule 3 weeks in advance so I will keep my calendar updated! I have always made sure to keep my eyes on the pets at all times, especially if we are outside. I am very patient as well with feedings and walks.

“Codi always goes above and beyond for our animals!! She also sends the best pictures of our fur babies having the best time. We are so grateful to have her as our sitter and keep our minds at ease when we are out of town!!”

About: Hi! My name is Nicholas, and I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. Throughout the last decade, I’ve always had 1–2 dogs living in my home, so I’m very familiar with their daily needs, routines, and personalities. My dogs have always been indoor pets and treated as part of the family, and I provide the same level of care and attention to every dog I watch. I understand the importance of exercise, playtime, consistency, and plenty of affection to help dogs feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I have a secure, grass-covered fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get fresh air. I’m also steps away from my community’s dog park that gets cleaned regularly every month. Whether your dog loves to be active or prefers to relax and cuddle, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care, attention, and plenty of love during their stay. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐾 Im available at all times of the day to take care of my pets! I usually work at night but my schedule varies as I can be flexible in when I can take care of dogs. I not only have a fenced backyard but I also have a a community dog park very close to my house and depending on the dog that I’m taking care of I can take them their alone or when there are other dogs there as well.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! From the moment we met, we felt completely comfortable leaving our sweet girl in their care. They treated her like family, sent regular updates and photos, and went above and beyond to make sure she felt safe and loved. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands. We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, trustworthy pet care!”
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I am available after 6pm on week days due to my full time job but on weekends I am available from sunup to sundown at anytime :)) I am very patient and calm with pets. I make sure your pet gets enough exercise and social interaction. You can be sure your home and loved ones will be gracefully taken care of!
About: I’m Blake! I grew up in South Texas with dogs, cats, horses, chickens and various types of rodents at all times. I currently have 2 dogs, 2 bunnies and 2 cats of my own - they are all unique characters. You ever need to go out of town but feel dread at the idea of leaving your pets to strangers or overwhelmed family members? Same. I will love and care for your pets like you do. I also clean, because pets can be messy, and coming home to an overflowing litter box is a bummer. For your cat, and you. I am primarily available for daily drop ins and walks. I'm familiar with all types of pet personalities and I feel comfortable with special diets, administering medication, physically/visually impaired dogs, high-energy pets and large breed types. Back on Rover after a pet sitting hiatus! I have worked from home full time since 2020. As someone who used to commute, I know what a bummer it is to need someone to let your pets out or walk them midday. And I feel for pets who really really just need to pee and play for a bit. I also need to support my property tax habit. SO! I am available during the weekdays primarily for drop ins and walks. I try to keep the environment and routines consistent. Play with the toys they like to play with. Sniff the mailboxes they love. Trying to offset the anxiety animals feel when their owners are away.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in New Braunfels is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - New Braunfels
Hannah is hands down the best sitter I’ve had. She is so nice and really did take care of my animals like they were her own. I was super stressed leaving my babies for so long but Hannah really made that stress go away. She updated me, answered any questions i had, and made sure all of my pets needs were met! It was such a pleasure having her as a sitter, and while our kitties are excited we are home, they definitely miss Hannah lol.
Erica is incredible. I can’t recommend her highly enough. She went above and beyond to care for my 4 cats. He of my cats was sick and she added extra time and trips to care for her. The house was perfect when I returned. She followed all of the care instructions perfectly. And clearly my cats really loved having her here. Lots of cute photos of play and fun. Thank you so much. Will book again for any occasion.
I really appreciate how after every visit she gives a summary WITH pictures of what happened, like how much they ate, if they played or cuddled, plus funny side notes. She is very informative, a fast replier, and updates daily. This sets her apart from any pet sitter I’ve used! My scaredy cats love her!!! This is my 3rd time booking with Victoria, and will be booking again.
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.

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 .

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 New Braunfels 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 New Braunfels. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
