“Dustin was awesome. He is very attentive to the dogs and was completely engaged with them. Our two pups had an amazing time especially being able to enjoy the wide open spaces of Dustin’s vast property. It was a social adventure and they came back better for it. Thank you Dustin from both Avi & Daniel!”
“We cannot recommend Lori and Frank more highly. This was Daisy’s very first time with a pet sitter, and as a rescue pup she can be a bit nervous in new situations. From the moment we met them, Lori and Frank immediately made her feel comfortable—not just with them, but also with their wonderful adult children. They took exceptional care of Daisy and truly made her part of their family. Thanks to their calm, loving environment, Daisy even gained the confidence to make a new doggy friend with another pet guest during her stay, which meant so much to us. We loved receiving regular updates and photos, and it was clear every step of the way that Daisy was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Leaving your dog for the first time is never easy, but Lori and Frank made the entire experience completely stress-free. We are so grateful for the love and attention they gave Daisy and would trust them again without hesitation.”
“Lillie was wonderful, and I would highly recommend her! It was our first time leaving Bear with her- she sent lots of photos and videos which gave us peace of mind. Bear has issues with anxiety but came home a very happy boy! Thank you Lillie!”
“Wonderful sitter! Took great care of Scout and kept me updated with photos/videos. Scout went on fun hikes and looked so happy and well cared for the entire time. Highly recommend!”
“Tammy was great, she has a nice pet friendly home, with a dog appropriate backyard. Fenced, grass, shade, room to walk around and sniff. We interviewed three the day we met Tammy. I was sure from the first ten minutes she would be our choice. Her own dog was sweet and calm and adorable. She had a nice personality, answered all our questions and we just felt comfortable in her home. We will be using her again. You can't go wrong with leaving you dog with Tammy. Thanks for taking care of our child. I mean dog, Tessa.”
“Luis was very accommodating when I requested to meet at the park before my booking and when I needed to drop my dog off a little bit later. He was very easy to talk to, asked a lot of questions about my dog, her habits and what activities she enjoyed (running, hiking, etc) and how much activity she needed. He was very clear on what he needed me to bring for her, which I 100% appreciated! He was very good at providing me with daily updates (including pics and videos). His dog was very friendly and my dog had a lot of fun having a friend to play with. Definitely would book him again.”
“Hsiaolei provided Lulu the absolute best attention and care. They were extremely attentive to her needs, taking her on loads of hikes because she is an energetic dog. The photos she sent us during our time away showed Lulu visibly smiling, whether on her pad by the fire or out on a walk. I highly recommend Hsiaolei!”
“Robert sent updates everyday and I knew Riley and Luma were spoiled at his house. Riley is a senior and needs eye drops twice a day, Robert was understanding and provided what she needed.”
“Alexis and I had a couple of communication misfires at first but we worked things out. I was a nervous dog mom since this was my first time on Rover. But Alexis was very responsive and took great care of my pup, who came home happy and healthy. I think my dog enjoyed her time in the country on Alexis’ property, and got lots of fresh air and exercise.”
“Sylvie and Jonathan were great with our Lucy! They were very flexible in scheduling and extending her stay due to changes in our travel plans. They had Lucy come over for a pre-stay visit to familiarize herself to their house and grounds before her actual stay. They communicated daily with photos with how she was doing. Nice to have someone to keeps our pet family members when we are unable to travel with them.”
“Our dogs loved it at Alex and Bri's home. The pups are usually anxious when we leave but they made themselves right at home. They loved the new grass put in their large backyard, found their favorite spot on their couch and got plenty of snuggles. We were updated constantly with plenty of pictures which assured us that they were being very well taken care of. We booked our next stay with them before we even picked them up. I highly recommend Alex and Bri!”
“Ana G and her love & care for our fur baby was exceptional ❤️ I will definitely refer her and keep her for our dog coverage care, not to mention, as much as she hated to see our pup go. I think pup didn't want to leave. She a real 5 star 🌟”
“Ashish was amazing. This was our pup’s first boarding, and I was very nervous. He reassured me that everything was going to be ok. He also sent us photos through out the visit! He was super accommodating on pick up time as well. Would ABSOLUTELY bring my dog back here if I needed boarding again!”
“Emily was wonderful! We arranged a meeting in advance to give my dog a chance to see the space and place. Then Emily was flexible with timing as we firmed up plans. She took great care of Aubrey and her dog Gigi was a super pal for Aubrey.”
“Jaimi took amazing care of our dog, Maizie. She and her loved ones treated Maizie as a member of their family and the frequent photo updates were a delight. Knowing that Maizie was so well cared for made our travel worry-free. We highly recommend Jaimi and have already made arrangements to have Maizie stay with her again.”
“Shayla, Jacob, and their twins were the perfect caregivers for our dogs, Gabbi and Poppins, while we were on vacation. From the moment we dropped them off, it was clear our pups were in loving, capable hands. Shayla and Jacob kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the week. Our dogs came back happy, healthy, and completely at ease, which speaks volumes about the care they received. We couldn’t have asked for a better family to look after our furry friends. Shayla and Jacob truly treated them as part of their own family. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet-sitting experience!”

XI and her mother took wonderful care of our dog Emma, who can be quite timid and anxious. They were so patient and kind, and really made her feel safe and at home. Xi sent daily updates and cute photos, which meant a lot. Knowing Emma was in such good hands allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation. We highly recommend Xi!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their San Antonio home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your San Antonio.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your San Antonio sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
