“Heather was fantastic. She housed our huge German Shepard while we were away for a week. She agreed to do a meet n greet before hand and it went great. We spent about 45 mins together with my big fur baby, making sure they were a good fit and thankfully they were. Heather sent me photos everyday and honestly, most of them looked professional. 😁 We intend on printing a few to frame. We had all kinds of delays and flight cancelations and Heather was way past understanding as well. She had no problem keeping Delta an extra day. She made that portion of the stressful trip, NOT stressful for us. I would absolutely recommend Heather, and I would definitely use her again in the future! ❤️”
“Tina and Bill were absolutely amazing to our fur baby ! It was so nice to travel and have peace of mind that he was taken care of. He went on many walks, we had lots of pictures! Will always use them!”
“Nicolas and his wife watched our puppy overnight for 10 nights. Obi is around 4 months old and they had to care for his consistent bathroom break needs. I'm sure this helped to indirectly train him to use the bathroom outside! When we got him back, he looked for grass to pee vs our inside floor (thank you!). They also sent several pictures of Obi each day to share with us, and he was able to play with other smaller dogs (which he loves dogs). Obi appeared well, healthy, and happy upon return to us.”
“Mindi and Scott took really good care of Argus. They were able to accommodate my last minute request despite of a busy weekend. They gave me continuous updates on how Argus is doing and am pretty sure Argus had a good time with them too.”
“So happy I found Jessica and her family to watch Cooper for us while we went on vacation. She provided us with multiple updates and pictures and she was flexible on our drop off and pick up time. I highly recommend!”
“Miriam was great with our two dogs! They got lots of outdoor time and were loved on while we were gone. I got pictures daily and she was so easy to work with during drop off and pick up. Thank you so much for caring for our dogs!”
“Elizabeth and her family were great! Our two pups had a blast while at the farm. Elizabeth was great about sending us photos, videos and updates all throughout the day.”
“Isabella & Juan were great. Communication was fast and smooth. We setup a meet&greet before our trip for Linda and from that day, we felt secure to leave her there for a week. They took really good care of Linda. Also we received daily updates and cute pictures. When we picked her up, we felt she was happy and energetic. We recommend Isabella & Juan’s loving house to host your pet!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We just had Giovanni take care of our dogs, Sunny and Sky, and once again, he exceeded our expectations! From the moment we dropped them off, we knew they were in great hands. Giovanni has a natural way with pets, and it’s clear that Sunny and Sky adore him. He took them on plenty of walks, played their favorite games, and ensured they were well cared for. We loved receiving regular updates and cute photos of their adventures, which always made us smile. Giovanni’s attention to detail and his genuine love for animals is unmatched. We can’t thank Giovanni enough for making our dogs feel at home while we were away. Highly recommended, and we’ll definitely be booking him again!”
“Everything was perfect and smooth from the meet and greet to the stay! Raja had an amazing time with the host family and their dogs. We appreciated the daily communication with pictures and flexibility with our pick up time, especially when our flight was delayed almost 10 hours. They took care of him with lots of love and would highly recommend without hesitation. This was a very respectable family home and we would trust them with our pup again!”
“This was my first time leaving my fur baby with someone and I was completely worried. Zoe calmed me instantly an ensured me that he was in good hands and he was! I would definitely recommend Zoe to anyone that asked.”
“Raymond & Jessica were absolutely AMAZING pet sitters!! They sent us daily videos of our dogs (a Frenchie & a Cane Corso) and we could tell that our dogs were having a great time and were extremely well taken care of. This allowed us to be at ease and enjoy our much needed vacation without any worries. I truly can't say enough about this couple. You can tell they have a passion for dogs & they care for others' pets like their own. Thank you again Raymond & Jessica. You are our official pet sitters from now on!!”
About: What sets me apart is the amount of time and attention I can give each pet. Since I work from home, pets in my care receive frequent potty breaks, companionship, supervision, and plenty of affection throughout the day. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I take the time to follow owners' instructions carefully, so pets feel safe, comfortable, and love while they're away. I pride myself on being reliable communicative and treating every pet as if they were my own. I have experience with my own pets, from their puppy stage until their current senior years. In addition, I have administered daily oral, intravenous, and eye medications to my pets. I currently work from home, so your pets can sit with me all day. They will have consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, regular walks, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally around my workday without interfering with my job and will rarely be left alone. Pets will receive attention, exercise and care from morning through bedtime. I have a fenced yard, an older male Shih Tzu, and a young male Tuxedo cat. I am reliable and will communicate with pet parents as requested. Frequent updates and photos will be provided. I have experience with my own pets with giving medications, recognizing signs of illness, and reading pet body language.
“I had to book last minute when our normal sitter had to cancel and everything went great!! I got lots of updates and pictures, really helped me to feel good about their care. I would book again!”
About: I’m reliable, communicative, and will keep you updated with photos and messages, giving you peace of mind throughout your trip. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I’ll make sure they get the attention they deserve. I’m also patient with puppies who are still learning routines and gentle with senior dogs who may need extra care, slower walks, or medication reminders. My goal is for both you and your dog to have a stress-free, positive experience from start to finish. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy staying active and spending time with dogs. I plan my schedule to ensure every pet gets plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, feeding, and bathroom breaks on time. I don’t believe in just stopping by—I make sure each dog feels comfortable, cared for, and gets quality interaction. I closely supervise pets during walks and playtime, make sure they always have fresh water, and keep doors, gates, and leashes secure to prevent accidents or escapes. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel loved and cared for, while making the experience as worry-free as possible for you.
“Janet was so accommodating to dog sit my westie at the last minute during the holidays. She communicated everyday with the cutest videos. She fed him some yummy healthy soup. Jake was a happy boy! Thanks for your wonderful care Janet!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in San Antonio is $40 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $49 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 2,094 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across San Antonio. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% of sitters in San Antonio can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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, 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.
Tip: 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 , 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 .
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 FL 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.
