About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 12 years old, starting with my own pets and gaining hands-on experience as I got older. Over the years, I’ve also provided pet sitting for my family, including regularly caring for my mom’s dog and my brother’s dogs. I’m very comfortable with feeding routines, basic care, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I’m a true animal lover and treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m used to planning my day around feeding schedules, walks, and making sure pets get enough attention and exercise. Throughout the week, I stay consistent with routines so pets feel comfortable and stress-free. Whether it’s morning and evening care, playtime, or just checking in to make sure everything is okay, I make pet care a priority and enjoy being around animals every day. I provide loving and reliable care for pets both in my home and in my client’s home, depending on what works best for the pet and owner. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions given. I make sure pets have a clean, safe, and comfortable environment, and I give them plenty of attention so they feel relaxed and cared for. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean while making sure their pet feels secure in their familiar surroundings. In my home, I provide a calm and pet-friendly environment where they can feel safe and comfortable. I also keep an eye on their behavior and health, and I’m quick to communicate with owners if anything seems off. My goal is to treat every pet like family and give them the same care I would give my own.
About: Hi! My name is Angel and I’m a huge animal lover with 4 years of pet care experience. I’ve cared for pets for neighbors, friends, and families, including watching multiple dogs at once, overnight stays, daytime care, and regular dog walks. I’m comfortable with both big and small dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and caring environment, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I also have a cat of my own who is my baby and my heart, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets like they are family. I genuinely love all animals and enjoy spending time caring for them. I’m reliable, patient, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel happy and cared for. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members! I’d love to spend time playing, walking, and caring for your pups throughout the week! I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available Mondays until 4 PM, Wednesdays, Thursdays until 4 PM, Fridays after 12 PM, and most weekends depending on the booking. I’m unavailable on Tuesdays. I always make sure pets get lots of attention, playtime, love, and a safe environment while you’re away! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make sure they stay comfortable by keeping them in their normal routine and environment. I follow all feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions if needed, and any house rules provided by the owner. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, bathroom breaks, and affection while also respecting their comfort level and personality. Safety and trust are very important to me, so I always keep a clean environment, secure doors and gates, and provide updates so owners can feel at ease while they’re away.
“100% RECOMMEND!!! We just moved back to WC/Zephyrhills area (sooner than planned) & our prev dog sitter ghosted us less than a mo before we were lvg for ~3 wk int'l trip. Alhough a family member would be staying @ our home we still wanted someone just for our fur babies... we were blessed w/ Shasta! She was all in for a meet/greet in our home. After a great ph convo, we invited her husband too bc w/ the length of time gone, we wanted her to know the pups wouldn't mind some more company. Shasta is an excellent communicator, she truly loves animals (they're not a $ to her) & she really works w/ you to accommodate needs/requests. This was our 1st drop-in & Shasta made it the BEST (2x a day). I can give so many examples, but for me it boiled down to: Her connection to our boys, her flexibility & her willingness to be on camera (lol). I hv medical needs & my panic disorder gets pretty intense when traveling w/out Gio. This was huge to me, Shasta gave consent to the streaming cameras we set up in the pupsters main areas. This allowed me to stay connected & grounded w/ a video or live view, so that my mental/physical health stayed in check. Most ppl don't understand the enormity of this gift. Also, when I saw the pure excitement oozing from our boys when Shasta (& hubby) were w/ them, playing & loving on them, no one could ask for more than that sight. Having a trained nurse w/ your kiddos... +BLESSING!”
About: I've loved animals and pets from a very young age. I can't remember a time that I didn't have a pet at home. I've had dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, lizards and sugar gliders. I love meeting new fur friends. I have experience sitting for friends and family and I also have two happy, friendly pups. I'm currently a part-time cybersecurity student and personal chef so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet and your guaranteed satisfaction. I can easily adjust my schedule when necessary and can accommodate even for very late or very early times. I can pet sit, go on walks and provide plenty of care, attention and play time for your pet. I can easily accommodate multiple pets, very large dogs, puppies and pets with minimum or no training.
“Such a great sitter! Very nice and caring with our pets. She accepted our request last second on a holiday and we appreciate it so much. We will recommend this sitter and use her again.”
About: As a college student who has grown up surrounded by animals, caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve lived with dogs, cats, and even chickens, so I’m very comfortable with a wide variety of pets and personalities. What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love for animals and the experience that comes from living with them every day, not just during scheduled visits. Your pet will be in caring, reliable hands, just like they’re part of my own family. I am currently home for the summer, waiting to hear back on a part-time job or internship. As of right now, I am fully available until further notice! N/A - I do not accept services where the pet will be in my own home because of the animals that live with me. .
About: I have always loved animals from a young age. I have two cats of my own, Bean & Gator :) I’m currently caring for numerous clients including the Penix family’s (as in Micheal Penix, starting quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons!) I’ve decided to expand my clientele over to Rover! I have years of experience walking, feeding, bathing/grooming, etc all sorts of different house & farm animals. I specialize in day-to-day care but I also am more than qualified to administer medications, bottle feed, and take special care for newborn and senior pets. I’m a Veterinary Technician working in Dade City with two pets of my own, lots of space in my home for private rooms for boarding, and a clean and spacious front/back yard. I look forward to meeting you & your furbaby!! 💞 I spend everyday with my two cats, along with working a few days a week at a veterinary clinic where i’m learning more and more each day on how to provide optimal care for animals. I have an additional room in my home to provide a private space for your pet which is completely sanitized after each guest. I provide treats of all different types for everyone’s pallet and dietary needs. I have a reliable source of transportation to ensure I can be there for your loved one. I have multiple sizes of leashes for walks, crates for any anxious or needing pets and plenty of toys and time to keep them entertained.
About: Love to walk with a dog. Able to teach not to pull on a leash. Prefer to watch a people friendly small or medium fur friend Have a full time job but can't pass on a walk time with doggy friends. Able to teach them not to pull on a leash I live in guard watching gated community and very quiet neighborhood. And my wife is retired and stay home all day except Sunday for service
About: I am home full-time during the week and love taking my dog on daily adventures! I own a medium sized, mixed dog named Maddison. Maddie is very mellow, spayed, and good with other dogs. We are a completely dog-friendly home: Lots of treats and toys, dogs allowed on furniture and in bed, and have plenty of room for separation if needed. With a dog hammock in the backseat of my car, we take regular trips out to the beach and dog parks. Mirada, our community, also gives us access to two small dog parks for socialization and play time. Feel free to plan a visit to our home to meet Maddie and myself and see if we are a good fit for you! I am currently home full-time, and I am very active with my own dog. We would absolutely love to have your pets join us for the fun! Drop-in visits can consist of three time frames: morning (9am-11am), afternoon (1pm-3pm), and evenings (5pm-7pm). This includes feeding, potty breaks, and one short walk, weather permitted, or indoor play time. Boarding will only ever consist of your pet(s) and my own dog during the duration of their stay. If interested in this service, I request a pre-stay meet up to ensure our animals can meet ahead of time and to discuss your pet’s care. You can view the environment and ensure your animal(s) will be comfortable with myself and my dog, Maddie.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs, cats, reptiles you name it. I am an animal lover through and through! I am very experienced in behavioral therapy so training puppies or just training in general is a breeze! I am very comfortable with reactive dogs and sensitive kitties as well. Working through triggers and building positive associations through reinforcement is my passion. My schedule is very flexible as a nanny, I have plenty of time to ensure pets are properly taken care of and most of all happy! I am happy to follow any instructions given and my biggest concern is that the pets under my care are not only safe, but happy and well cared for in all aspects.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - San Antonio
Kristi is always so good to my baby Cheddar! She always allows her to warm up to her first before she forces her to do anything. Kristi always keeps me updated of how she is doing or if she has any problems. I appreciate her and her updates on my girl. She even did my dishes from my sink this time! Thank you so much Kristi.
Madlen is great! Highly recommend! She is knowledgeable on care for dogs and is very accommodating to any request needed. Oakley immediately felt comfortable with her which left me at peace. I will definitely be using Madlen frequently for my dog sitting/walking needs.
Alexandria was a godsend in a very dire situation. Our friend was badly hurt in a motorcycle accident and I reached out with an immediate need and she stepped up big time. I can’t recommend her enough. She was truly our angel of mercy. I am beyond grateful to her and how she handled the situation. I give her a 1000 star rating. She is who you want taking care of your fur babies.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a San Antonio stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in San Antonio choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in San Antonio with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
