“Absolutely phenomenal lady!! My dogs are a bit of a handful sometimes (two Dobies) and she rocked it!! Sent me pix and updates throughout her stay and even worked with me since I was getting back late due to my daughter’s birthday. HIGHLY recommend!!!”
“New to Rover + senior dog + my father’s memorial service = Jessica truly taking away the worry! She was phenomenal! She took time to bond with Morgan and sent me frequent updates and photos. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you are debating using Rover or debating between sitters … stop debating! You can’t go wrong with Jessica! She will take great care of your pets and allow you to focus on the reason you need to leave your furbaby behind.”

“Could not have chosen a better sitter for our pup. We came in from out of town and I was so nervous to get a sitter to come to our Air B&B but Nev hit it out of the park! I am so thankful and would love to come back and have this star sitter in the future!”

“Sara did a great job taking care of our darling gizmo. They kept me updated everyday with photos and comments. I appreciate the way our house looked like no one had stayed there! Gizmo was well taken care of. I would 100% book with Sara again.”


About: Dogpark local from the downtown area. I have a dog, Barbie, and my two cats, Kori and Envy. I’m active, positive, professional, and gentle. I feed both my cats and dog in the morning and afternoon. I take Barbie out every morning and afternoon, sometimes at night around the park. All of my animals are very playful. I am a Dogpark local, who takes care of many of my friends pets and homes. This includes taking them to the Dog Park, walking, and sitting for them.
“Great service and excellent communication. My pets were very well taken care of and they even managed to make friends with my antisocial cat. They sent tons of pictures throughout the visit and stayed in constant communication. Would definitely book with them again.”

“Danielle was responsive, took time to meet my dog before the booking, and communicated well throughout the process. She took good care of dog and was even flexible with my return. Highly recommended!”

“Ciria was a great sitter for us. She kept us updated and was very kind to our dog while house sitting. She worked with us to figure out a good care plan and sent us lots of photos. I have no complaints, and neither will you!”

“We recently hired Ana for pet sitting; and, we couldn't be happier with our experience. She took care of our dogs for several days in our home and was truly exceptional. When one of our dogs unexpectedly had a seizure while we were away, Ana acted quickly and called me. I contacted our vet, and they advised us to bring him in. Ana carried him to the car, drove to the vet, and then described the event to the doctor. The doctor decided to keep our dog for the rest of the day. After being cleared to go home, Ana picked him up and brought him home. Thankfully, our dog was fine for the remainder of our trip. Additionally, we returned to a spotless house. Ana had cleaned everything, picked up after the dogs in the yard, and even washed her sheets before we got back. We highly recommend her services!”

“Ashley was fantastic! Her background as a former vet tech really shows—she’s incredibly knowledgeable about puppies and made us feel completely at ease. We also reached out last minute, and she was so accommodating and flexible with our schedule. We’re really grateful for her help and would definitely book with her again!”
“Laurie did great with our three dogs. She also cleaned our house after a very rainy week while we were gone. I would recommend her to others for both house and pet sitting.”


“Melissa did an amazing job sitting our two dogs. She was very professional and communication was excellent. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“Adirah did an incredible job with my pup, Cooper. She was kind enough to do a meet and greet to get him comfortable and kept me updated on things all weekend. She also took very good care of the apartment. I’m so grateful she was able to look after my little guy and I will most certainly be booking with her again.”

“Damien did an amazing job at caring for my dogs. They warmed up to him very quickly loved being around him. He was also very respectful of the house and very clean. I will be booking him again. I highly recommend Damien to anyone needing a good sitter.”

“Ericka calmed all my fears about leaving my reactive pup with her! She sent me lots of pictures and just took such good care of them! My dogs loved Ericka 🥰 (I’m only begrudgingly leaving this review bc I selfishly want to keep her for myself!)”

“Jayden was a life saver! She hosted Miley last minute. She arrived to our location literally 20min after the booking. She is very sweet, polite and excellent communicator. My husband and I really appreciate you and your time.”

“Grey was great! Respectful to our home but most importantly respectful to our pup! Sent regular updates and went above and beyond. We travel often so we will be using Grey again in the future! Highly recommend! We came home to a happy and healthy pup!”


“Sarah did a great job with my Sunny. She was very communicative about questions she had, while also sending pics of her. She also made sure she got her walk in everyday. It was my first time leaving her alone with a stranger, so it went well.”


About: I’ve always grown up around dogs and have owned them throughout my life. As a student attending school to major in Veterinary Medicine, I want to get the best experience I can day by day. I currently own a doxie right now and she truly deserves the best. I am currently a sophomore student athlete going into my second semester. I want to be able to stay busy and get some experience with a variety of pets by understanding day by day. Also please understand that I will do my best to keep my availability updated, and as a student athlete please have patience with me. Thank you! I believe that caring for an animal is like caring for a child. The attention and care is a priority, as I do have a doxie myself. She is my whole world and she truly deserves the best along with all other pets!
The median cost per night for house sitting in River Road is $40

We booked Parker to watch our 2 dogs for 5 days in our home. One of our dogs is very shy and timid but Parker was able to get her to trust her on the first day. She has a big heart for animals and the care she provided was very evident. We did have an issue on the last day with us getting back home at a certain time but Parker was quick to respond and resolve the issue in a timely manner.

Nichole was excellent! She took great care of Terre, kept me updated, sent photos, and made sure he was happy and comfortable. Unfortunately, my A/C stopped working during the booking and maintenance had to come in and out several times, but she was incredibly understanding and patient through the whole situation. She truly went above and beyond, and I came home to a very happy dog. I would definitely book with her again!

I was visiting San Antonio from out of town while my sister was in the hospital and found myself needing someone on very short notice to sit with my baby, Bear. Lexus responded quickly and immediately put my mind at ease. She took such wonderful care of him, kept me updated throughout the entire visit, sent photos, and communicated consistently the whole time. Being away from your pet during an already stressful situation can be difficult, but I truly felt secure leaving Bear in her care. Lexus was kind, dependable, attentive, and professional. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter and would definitely book with her again in the future.

This was the first time I have ever had someone I don’t know staying in our home watching our animals. Jared was amazing. He came for a meet and greet and the dogs immediately loved him. Our older female border collie usually doesnt love on new people so her reaction was very telling. We trusted Jared with our place for 10 days while we were on the other side of the country. He did an amazing job with texts multiple times a day every day as well as pictures of the dogs loving life. We have a doorbell camera and can confirm Jared took the dogs out every 4 hours as we requested and did long walks with the dogs so they could play. Not just pee breaks. I will definitely be using Jared again and if anyone has any reservations about him please take my vote of confidence. He did a fantastic job.

This is the second time Jessica saved my sanity :) When life throws you a curve ball and you suddenly need care for your fur baby, you can count on her! She is reliable, gives lots of lovin’, keeps in contact and sends great photos. I miss my pup while I’m gone but I know she’s in excellent hands.

Doraelia is an absolute lifesaver! We were in a pinch over the holidays and needed someone to watch our cat, Yuki, and our dog, Echo. Doraelia stepped in and did an amazing job. Not only did they stay on top of a strict medication schedule for both pets, but they also made sure Echo got her daily walks and both animals received plenty of playtime and attention. It was so clear that Yuki and Echo were happy and well-cared for as Doraelia sent photos regularly. We can't thank Doraelia enough and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dedicated and trustworthy pet sitter!
