“She was recommended to us by our previous pet sitter who moved away, and we couldn’t be happier. She was able to accommodate a same-day drop-in when we were in a pinch. She did everything we asked and went above and beyond, and she sent lots of lovely pictures! We will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“I love Liz and my pets love her! I appreciate that she’s always willing to accommodate us and she always goes the extra mile. I’m happy to have found such a caring person to watch or walk my pets. Thank you!!”
About: My experience includes dog walking, overnight pet sitting, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I also have experience for bearded dragons and other reptiles, including feeding, habitat care, and handling routines. As a pet owner myself with both a dog and a lizard, I understand how important it is to give pets patience, attention, and proper care. I’m reliable, responsible, and able to carefully follow any instructions to make sure every pet gets the best care possible. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because I had just graduated and will have a very open and flexible availability. Since I’ll have extra free time, I’m able to be dependable, responsive, and give pets lots of attention and care throughout the day. I regularly walk and care for my own dog, and spending so much time with him has definitely made me his favorite person in the house.
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
“Jaritza was wonderful— she not only arrived early, but also provided updates throughout my puppy’s drop-in visit. Jaritza effectively communicated with me and ensured to keep me up to date with his activity. With this being our puppy’s first drop-in visit, she most definitely put our minds at ease.”
“I feel so lucky to have found Brittany to check in on our cat, Wilson, while we were away! Great communication with lots of pictures and videos. Wilson was well loved and the house was tidy when we returned. Highly recommend Brittany for your pet sitting needs!”
About: I have over 2 1/2 years of experience as a trusted pet sitter in my previous community, where I cared for a variety of pets with different needs. What sets me apart is my dedication to providing personalized care and attention to every pet, ensuring they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I have experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior pets, tailoring my approach to their specific routines and needs. My top priority is always the safety, comfort, and happiness of the pets in my care. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my schedule because I work full-time with a flexible, hybrid setup. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, making it easy to provide consistent care throughout the day. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I go into the office only for half days in the mornings, which still leaves me plenty of time in the afternoons and evenings to care for your pets. My job allows me the flexibility to ensure that your pets receive the attention and care they need, without any disruptions. When caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home, safety and trust are my top priorities. In my home, I create a comfortable, pet-friendly environment that is free from hazards and provides plenty of space for pets to relax and play. I ensure that they are supervised at all times and follow their normal routines to minimize stress. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I maintain the same level of care and attentiveness. I make sure to follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, ensuring their pets feel comfortable in their own environment. I always prioritize safety by keeping doors securely closed, using proper leashes during walks, and staying aware of their behavior to prevent any potential issues. My goal is to provide a caring and secure experience that helps pets feel safe, happy, and loved.
About: My name is Trey. I have loved animals as long as I can remember. I have a large variety of experience taking care of animals ranging from dogs and cats to rabbits and guinea pigs. I try to be attentive to owner requests and pet needs and I would be honored to take care of your furry friend. I am currently home for the summer until I head off for college in the fall. This means my schedule is very flexible and I can work around your pets' needs. I currently have one dog and one cat. I help administer medicine, care for their needs and clean up after them. I love playing with them and giving them extra attention whenever I can as well.
“Alayna is fantastic! This is the first time using Alayna’s services and we found our cat sitter now! She’s very nice and friendly, trustworthy, responsible, and most importantly our cats loved her (and that says a lot since they’re very shy) and she was really caring with them! She sent us pictures/videos everyday and communication was excellent. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“This is my second time using Paige. She is wonderful. We made last minute overnight plans and she was very accommodating. She put my mind at ease knowing my baby was well taken care of. She was very detailed on each visit report too. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Thanks so much for coming through when really need too. You can tell Akita was well taken care of. No worries at all if he worried or concerned he contacts you. Thanks will definitely rebook”
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.
“Mirielle was very sweet and attentive with Gizmo. We went out of town for 4 days and every day she would message me letting me know how Gizzy was doing, the pics were so great to receive. Gizmo looked so happy! She was prompt and on time always. I felt at peace knowing Gizzy was cared for by Mirielle. I left her my house keys, she locked up and on the last day she left my keys in a safe area. I am definitely booking her again!”
“Isabela did a great job looking in on our dog and cat while we were out of town. She is very sweet and a great communicator. She sent lots of photos which was a bonus! We will definitely be contracting her again! Thanks so much!”

I feel so lucky to have found Brittany to check in on our cat, Wilson, while we were away! Great communication with lots of pictures and videos. Wilson was well loved and the house was tidy when we returned. Highly recommend Brittany for your pet sitting needs!
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.

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 San Antonio 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in San Antonio. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
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.
