“Since moving to the area we were really busy with moving and settling our children in that we had been neglecting our 2 pups. We found Mark and our pups are much happier to go on walks around the neighborhood. Mark is always on time and is very communicative regarding when he arrives as well as checking in on the next walk. He asks all the right questions to get to know our pups so that they are understood and comfortable. Would recommend Mark to anyone and we are already looking into having them boarded for an upcoming trip.”

About: Hi there! My passion for animals has led me on a rewarding journey, from the fast-paced environment of a veterinary clinic to the heartfelt experience of fostering rescued animals from Mexico until they found their forever families. This diverse background has instilled in me a profound appreciation for the unique needs of each animal and the importance of patience, gentle handling, and creating a secure and comfortable space. When you choose me, you're choosing someone who is wholeheartedly dedicated to your pet's happiness and well-being, treating them with the same love and care I give to every animal I encounter. I look forward to learning about your furry family! Providing exceptional pet care is my priority and my way of supporting my family. This means I have the flexibility to dedicate my time to your pet's needs throughout the day and week. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I am readily available to give your furry friend my undivided attention and ensure their routine is maintained. My approach to pet care is centered around understanding each pet's individual needs and ensuring their comfort and safety in either my home or theirs. I prioritize open communication with you to learn about your pet's specific routines, preferences, and any sensitivities. In my home, I create a calm and secure environment where they can relax and feel at ease. In your home, I am respectful of your space and follow your instructions meticulously to maintain consistency for your pet. My extensive experience in a veterinary setting has also equipped me with the skills to recognize and respond to various animal behaviors and potential health concerns. Trust and clear communication are paramount to building a positive and safe experience for both you and your beloved pet.

“Having Ryan walk Purple has been wonderful! She’s always prompt and reliable, and I really appreciate knowing I can count on her to take care of Purple’s walks. Ryan makes it a point to communicating updates. I’m so glad we found her. Highly recommend!”

About: While I have not professionally taken care of animal, I have always had a dog (specifically pitbulls) in my household since I was a child. I've also house sat for reptiles (lizards and snakes), fish, and cats. ** I will be unavailable for services from August to December while I am on maternity leave** I work full time remotely, so my schedule is very flexible. I can stop in at any time to walk or let them out to use the bathroom, or I can bring my work laptops with me to work from your home if I am needed for extended periods of time. I am also part of the Texas National Guard so every month I will need to go to drills, so weekend availability will change each month. At my dad's house in New York, I always leash our dog when we go for our walks and make sure that we walk through a safe neighborhood or on a hiking trail that's near our house. When outside, I keep an eye on him and make sure that he does not get into anything he shouldn't. I also make sure that if other people are around that he feels comfortable and safe. With my own puppy at home, he has a leash that we use to walk around our complex (they require all dogs to be leashed), but he is naturally good without a leash as well.
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have owned dogs since I was little. Caring for them comes naturally to me, and I truly treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m very attentive and loving, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy at all times. I have experience with daily care such as feeding, bathing, playtime, and taking dogs to the vet when needed. I enjoy spending quality time with them, whether that means going for walks, playing, or simply giving them love and attention. I’m patient, responsible, and very observant, so I quickly notice if something seems off. What sets me apart is the genuine care and heart I put into every pet. Your dog won’t just be watched, they’ll be loved Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I work from home from Friday through Tuesday, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. On weekends, I’m fully off, so I can dedicate even more time to caring for pets. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to provide 24-hour supervision for boarding, including regular potty breaks, feeding on schedule, playtime, walks, and lots of affection. Pets are never left alone for long periods, and I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved at all times. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise. I also have three friendly dogs who love having company and help create a fun, social environment, while I always monitor interactions closely. I follow each pet’s routine and preferences carefully and communicate with owners regularly. If crating is requested, I’m happy to do so but I will never crate a dog without the owner’s permission. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide a calm, clean, and loving space where pets feel secure and cared for at all times.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs from my previous work at a doggy daycare, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, and providing plenty of attention and supervision. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with dogs, and I always treat every pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I have a dog of my own, so pet care is naturally part of my everyday routine. From morning walks and feeding to playtime, training, and evening wind-downs, I’m always hands-on and attentive. Caring for my dog has taught me consistency, patience, and the importance of keeping pets happy, healthy, and engaged—skills I bring to every animal I look after. I care for pets by keeping their routine consistent, making sure they’re fed, walked, and comfortable, and giving them plenty of attention and playtime. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely and keep the environment safe, clean, and familiar so each pet feels relaxed and well cared for.
“Shy was amazing with my dog Benji. She came to my house, took him on his walk, and brought him back safe and happy. She followed all the details I left and showed undeniable care the whole time. Benji was very relaxed and content after his walk. I will definitely be using her services again and again. Also I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”

“Brandi not only helped me out with my last minute booking, but also took excellent care of my pup and my home while I was out of state. Very professional, great attitude, and pleasant to work with. So glad I have a solid go to sitter moving forward!!!”

About: My name is Maria and I live in a dog friendly apartment complex close to the University of Texas at San Antonio. My apartment is on the 3rd floor with a fully gated porch. My apartment has one bedroom and they can sleep with me if they prefer. Due to the size of my apartment I am only available to host small and medium sized dogs. I grew up with dogs and have had a beagle, Maltese, poodle, and retriever over my lifetime, all of which were family dogs. I currently do not have a dog, and prefer to only host one at a time (unless you have two, I'd be happy to host them together to avoid separation). I am currently a senior at UTSA and I'm studying Early Childhood Education and work within 5 minutes of my apartment. As I usually go home for lunches, I would be happy to give your dog a mid afternoon walk during that time in addition to an evening or morning walk- or all of the above!
About: Hi! My name’s Emily. I’m 18 and have had a passion for animals since I was a kid. I’m currently a certified vet assistant hoping to become a veterinarian one day and would love to help care and watch your animals while further educating myself to better understand them. I live in a house with a pretty decent sized back yard and plenty space for them to run around. I think it’s worth noting I have one other small dogs which shouldn’t be a problem because he love getting to know new friends. When staying they would get plenty bathroom breaks, walks, interaction with other dogs or cats (depending on if your animal is comfortable with it) and of course they would also be fed but you would need to bring their own food because of different allergies and etc. we have lots of toys for them to play with and I think they would really enjoy staying here while you’re out. I will be disinfecting everything and taking safety precautions to making sure everyone is safe prior to drop offs as well. Please contact me if you’re interested! Thank you! I currently work a part time job Sunday - Friday, 11am- 5pm. To ensure your stay does not collide with my job, please ensure you are either letting me know AT LEAST a week in advance (two weeks proffered) OR are able to book a stay that goes around schedule. I have a fenced yard with plenty of space for them to roam, I can easily crate your fur baby if needed. I also have doggy gates for inclosed areas (if requested) and a friendly neighborhood for plenty of walks :)
About: I have been dog sitting pups for family and friends since 2022. I also have a senior dog who has required special care since 2020. I was also in FFA in high school 3 years ago, raising rabbits, a lamb, and a steer. I am a flight attendant who works 15 days a month. I often have long stretches of time off of work, receiving my schedule for the month 8-10 days in advance. I take my dog on three walks daily, in the morning, afternoon, and evening. As she is a senior dog, we walk for shorter times to allow proper rest in between walks.

We’ve had experience caring for Golden Retrievers, Poodles, Yorkies, and Pomeranians. At home, we have two guinea pigs (ages 5 and 4), and we’ve also helped care for my aunt’s cat, so we’re comfortable with different types of pets and personalities. We offer drop-in visits and dog walking, and we love keeping pets happy and engaged through playtime, belly rubs, light grooming, and lots of attention! Spending time with animals is very therapeutic for us, and we treat every pet like family. Our goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away 🥰 I’m currently studying online and working as a travel agent, so my schedule is very flexible. I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine, whether it’s walks, playtime, or drop-in visits, to make sure they feel happy and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a secure, calm, and loving environment where your furry family member can feel happy and relaxed.

About: I’m excited to welcome and care for your pup in our family home! I provide a loving, comfortable environment where your dog can feel safe, relaxed, and right at home. Before becoming a mom, I was a dog mom to two very different pups—a tiny 5-lb terrier and an 80-lb Great Pyrenees/Collie mix—for a little over five years. Having cared for dogs on both ends of the size spectrum, I understand that every pup has their own personality, needs, and comfort level. I’d love the opportunity to give your pup plenty of love, attention, and care while they’re with me. I will be the sole caretaker for all Rover bookings, and any interactions between pets and my children will always be supervised by me. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, which gives me a fairly flexible schedule throughout the week. I’m available for dog walks and can also work pet care into my daily routine when caring for a pup in my home. I enjoy getting outside for walks and am happy to follow each dog’s usual walking, feeding, potty, and care routine as closely as possible. Safety and comfort are always a priority. For walks, I’ll follow your instructions and your dog’s usual routine, keeping their temperament, energy level, and surroundings in mind. When caring for a dog in my home, I have a securely fenced backyard for outdoor time and a nearby shaded trail for walks. I have a 10-year-old and a 3-year-old in the home, so it’s important that dogs staying with me are comfortable around children. I will always supervise any interactions between my children and pets in my care. We don’t currently have a dog of our own, and I will be the sole caretaker responsible for all Rover bookings.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Porter Heights. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Porter Heights after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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.
Every walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Porter Heights. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers 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 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
