“I had a last minute work trip and was very hesitant as a 1st time Rover user. Especially, since I have a kitten and a senior cat with different personalities and needs. Angel was absolutely the best and kept excellent communication with me. Both cats were well taken care of, she was able to get pics of my shy senior under my bed and alerted me when 1 of my water foundations stop working. Incredibly thankful to have found her on Rover.”
“Marla did an excellent job taking care of our boys! We couldn’t wait to get our daily updates. She took lots of pictures and had fun getting to know our boys 😻😻 We look forward to using her again in the future.”

I’m currently my own boss. The days that I have available are fully open for me and your beloved fur babies. Every Wednesday and Thursday i have class, but every other day of the week i’m all yours. I am very experienced with animals of all sizes. I’m very friendly and calm so animals warm up to me easily. I love to walk, so anytime your pet wants to walk I want to walk. I really enjoy to play with furry lovely animals so we will have a blast. I am currently not doing boarding at my home but that will be coming shortly.

I have experience with feeding, cleaning up after animals, exercising, and providing plenty of affection to pets of all sizes. I have some pet sitting experience, with cats, dogs, chickens, and reptiles, this experience has taught me the value of patience, consistency, and understanding the unique needs of each animal. I’m excited to extend the same love and care I’ve given my own pets to yours, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while you're away. I’m also committed to keeping you updated with photos and updates for your peace of mind. Pet care is a priority in my daily and weekly routine, and I ensure I have the time and flexibility to give every animal the attention they deserve.

“Such a great cat sitter. Kelli provided lots of communication and updates on my cats while I was away giving me such peace of mind. She was timely and considerate. I definitely will use her again in the future!”
About: I grew up on a farm and had almost any animal you could think of as a pet. I’m very known for my love and experience with animals. Family and friends have come to me to feed, walk, bathe, and play with their fur babies! I have open availability and can book almost anytime/day of the week! Walks, feeding, playtime and daytime sitting are all things I have open availability for! Of course I meet each clients need's. I provide loving, attentive care, following each pet’s routine, giving plenty of playtime, walks, cuddles, fresh food, clean water, and lots of attention!
About: I've had dogs since I was a kid and currently have two beautiful doggies, tiger and Hazel and they are super friendly! We have a 5 acre fenced property with a pool so they will enjoy their stay with us! My hubby says I cannot have any more dogs so I am now offering to sit and walk other friendly dogs. My two dogs love having friends and play dates at our house! Daily I wake up at 6am and let them out and feed them and let them hang out until I leave for work around 9:30am and when our teenagers get home around 2pm they get let out again and hangout until I get off at 6 or 7pm. They get fed again and have playtime and then bedtime is around 9pm. My doggies do great on that schedule and they are very active and love to hangout with us on the pool deck area. I have three kids, Karin is 21, Natalie is 18 and Gus is 16 and they all love animals! We also have chickens and goats and we all take care of them as a family. I care for my pets inside of our home, we also have a huge kennel we built that has a built in water spout and a fan. The kennel has a roof and is shaded year round. We also let them inside and on the screened in pool deck. They have crates also which I will use from time to time but for the most part I let them free roam in the kitchen or living room and use a doggie gate to section them off so they dont get into anything. They usually just follow me around and watch me cook dinner. :)
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life. I helped my childhood dog deliver all 9 of her puppies, cared for them, and helped find each of them a loving home. I’ve also dog sat a variety of breeds and ages, including senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’ve had Journey, my own dog, for 8 years, so I’m very comfortable with the everyday responsibility, attention, and love dogs need. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I’m a stay-at-home mom to a toddler, so I have a flexible schedule and am home often. I’m able to work walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting into my routine while giving each pet plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m happy to do my very best to work with different schedules and routines to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I take pet safety seriously and treat every dog like they’re part of the family. I follow their normal routine and their owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and any specific behaviors or boundaries to be aware of. I make sure doors, gates, and fences are secure, keep dogs supervised, and don’t leave them with anything they shouldn’t have access to. I also keep a clean, comfortable environment and give pets plenty of attention and exercise appropriate for their age and energy level. Whether your dog is staying with me in my home or I’m caring for them during drop-ins at your home, my goal is for them to be safe, happy, and genuinely well cared for.

“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: Dogs are people too..... At least that's how I have always felt and our furry friend gets most all of the attention in our home. My husband and I just moved to Florida from Arkansas. Most of our neighbors there we met through our dogs and thought this could be a great opportunity to take advantage of my love of the outdoors and meet some new dogs - I mean people. I have trained & cared for my own doggies from puppy stage to end stage and have had the privilege to care for other's furry family members along the way - how can you not love those faces? I can be available for morning and or evening walks around your neighborhood and visits so I can spoil your dog (almost) as you would. I work from home so I can be somewhat flexible with you and your pet's schedule, making sure they get lots of attention and quality care! I will make sure your pup stays safe while walking the neighborhood or playing in the yard. Or that they get quality attention while you are away.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in San Antonio is $20

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.

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.
