“Genevieve was fantastic and went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were comfortable and well cared for. She took the time to really learn their habits and carefully managed their medications, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. As newer users of Rover, we also appreciated how helpful and communicative she was throughout the entire process. It made a big difference knowing our dogs were in such capable hands. Coming home to happy, stress-free dogs without any boarding-related issues was the best outcome we could have asked for.”
“Very professional, good communication, good response time. Willing to do meet n greet b4 booking. Listened to all request for my cat. Recalled everything i asked of her during her drop ins. Did the extras to make sure my cats food, potty room, and toys were all good and extra tidy. Will use again for my cats sitter needs.”
“Miss Ariana has been great with both of my pups. One recently had flare ups for ivdd and had needed more gentle care while my other pup is still extremely active and she was able to accommodate to both their needs. She’s great at following instructions and communicating what is needed for a Successful visit.”
“Stacy was not only a great drop-in sitter, taking care of Chuck while I was away, she was incredibly patient and understanding while I went through an emergency that forced me to make several scheduling changes. Stacy will be my first choice as a drop-in sitter the next time a need arises. Thanks again!”
“Joshua was absolutely incredible with my dog and 2 cats. My dog is very nervous around other people, but he was so patient and kind with her, and it showed! She warmed up to him quickly and had a great time while she was in his care. Joshua went above and beyond to give me detailed updates on every visit and was attentive and communicative about possible issues like when my dog’s ears appeared to be bothering her, and a possible lack of appetite. It’s hard to leave your fur babies, but I had such great peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. Thank you Joshua!!”
“I checked on our kitties every day through our Ring Camera, and they looked as content as can be. Ms. Olivia provided photos and video every day; I greatly appreciate her professionalism and attention to instruction; I'd certainly hire again 😺”
“Lili is a wonderful dog sitter! My small dog with mild anxiety warmed up to her immediately. Lili watches my dog for me while I am work, and I completely trust her with my home and dog. She is courteous and kind, and you can tell she is an animal lover. If I could rate her more than 5 stars, I would.”
“Jormary is wonderful! As a repeat client, I continue to trust her with Max and Ruby. She is reliable, communicative, and always provides excellent care during her drop-in visits. I’m grateful for attentiveness and kindness towards Max and Ruby, highly recommend her services. 🐾😊”
“Suzanne was very friendly and did an excellent job caring for and loving on my cat when I was away. I will definitely keep her in mind for the future and recommend her to others.”
About: State pet adoption CEO hired me! Many years of experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, sugar gliders, and other pets. Reliable. Integrity matters! Fostering experience. #pickme Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention, exercise, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. Whether it's walks, playtime, potty breaks, or simply providing comfort and care, I make pets a priority and enjoy incorporating their needs into my everyday activities. The only time I’m not available os Sunday mornings (church-my husband’s a minister). I care for pets in their own home by maintaining their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I provide lots of attention and companionship and do my best to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away.
“I’ve reviewed Monica before, but I feel like I need to add additional details. I was delayed in getting home from a trip because of an ice storm. Not only was Monica understanding of the situation, she graciously accepted my request to extend her services and even set up a system to ensure she’d be able to look after my pet if my house lost power in the storm. She is extremely professional and considerate. I will be using her exclusively for as long as she’s willing to look after my little guy”
“Dayana, Agreed to do drop ins on REALLY SHORT notice... She was prompt, communicative and excellent in all regards. I hope the next time We require a drop in She is available.”
“Laken was superb in taking care of Bruiser and Freya for 2 drop in visits a day over the weekend. Quality time was spend each visit ensuring the needs of both pups were well carried for. Photos and texts were shared during the visits. It was obvious they both were well cared for when I returned home. I will definitely call Laken for all future pet care needed. I highly recommend Laken for all Pet sitter needs.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Salado
Bernice was fantastic with our fur babies! The 3 Dogs absolutely loved her. We have cameras all over the house, and it was great to see her actually spending time and interacting with them. Bernice made it much more than just a “drop-in”. We will DEFINITELY have her visit again with our puppies when we’re out. 5+Stars
Paige was great, very communicative and seemed to connect really well with our dogs! We had a lot of anxiety because one of our girls doesn’t like to be alone and hadn’t been without us before but she was very comfortable with Paige and seemed to take a lot of comfort from her drop-ins!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Salado on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 Salado 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.

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.
