“Max is an absolute gem!! He took amazing care of my mini-Australian shepherd (who, let's be honest, can be needy with cuddles and play time LOL). I was sent numerous photos throughout the day of him taking her for walks, going to the dog park, enjoying fetch in their beautiful fenced-in yard, and all the snuggles she could possibly want. Max is warm, caring, and truly dedicated to the health and happiness of not only his two, adorable pugs, but the fur babies he is taking care of. I would 10/10 recommend Max, and have already passed his information to several of my friends.”
“Mati stayed with Ana for New Years week, she had a great time there, I received many pictures throughout her stay and she seemed happy and well taken care of when I picked her up, this was the second time I’ve left her with Anna and I am very happy I did.”
“This was my first experience boarding my dog Tuna or leaving her in anyone else's care. Stephanie went above and beyond for Tuna. Stephanie sent pictures, replied promptly, and made sure everyone was at ease. Stephanie was quick to respond, professional, kind, and her services were very affordable. I boarded Tuna for about 6 days. If I ever need to board her again, I will be coming to her! 10/10 reccomend”
“Lisa and her family were fabulous, and I already booked our second stay! Super responsive and flexible, and sent great pics every day. A perfect option for a dog that loves being around other dogs.”
“Jaz wasso happy hehad such a great time we will be using genesis services again we were so scared he would mis behave since he never been away from my daughter for so l9ng but we sure were pleaseed with her services thanks again”
“Marti and Trixie hosted my dog for the third time, and I couldn't ask for a better sitter. Marti is highly engaged in providing top-notch care and maintains excellent communication. She frequently sent me messages and photos, keeping me updated throughout the extended stay. When I picked up my dog, he was relaxed, happy, and healthy. It's clear he felt safe and comfortable in Marti's home and enjoyed Trixie's company.”
“Danielle was a complete life-saver! My usual sitter had an emergency and had to cancel the night before my trip. Danielle took my dog in for the weekend with less than a days notice. She was very communicative, kind, and patient with my anxious gal. She sent many photos and updates without me having to ask! I always get so nervous to leave my dog with someone she has never met but Danielle was so easy to work with and so trust-worthy. I highly recommend!!”
About: I have had pets my whole life, and have been petsitting for friends and family for over two decades. I have extensive experience with positive reinforcement training, attending to special needs and medications, special feeding instructions, puppy/kitten and senior pet care, and caring for recent rescues and anxiety issues. Multiple pets welcome! My availability is very flexible to suit whatever your pet's scheduling needs may be. Your pet's sense of enrichment and happiness is so important to me. I will faithfully ensure their regular routines are kept, and that they are fully pampered to the highest standards. Your instructions and your pet's preferences are my prerogative. I'll have attentive eyes on your pet at all times, and will be happy to send photos and videos along to you as desired. I am very respectfully intuitive with pets, following their lead and yours in terms of the type of companionship and care that makes them the most comfortable. I can provide yard breaks, leash walks, games and playtime, baths, crate time, as well as administer most medications. I have experience with elderly and special needs pets as well. Please note that for boarding and doggy daycare services in my home, my apartment doesn't have a yard space. It's a very dog-friendly part of town to explore on as many walks as your pet likes, or simply for bathroom breaks outside if they're not feeling like a journey. Also, my friendly terrier named Frankie is present during doggy daycare and boarding in my home. He loves company! As a gentle soul at heart, he's great at reading whether your dog would like a playmate or prefer some space. He is neutered and current on vaccinations and flea prevention. I have a doggy gate to use as needed for separate feeding, or other needs along those lines.
“Sydney took such great care of my two small dogs and my lab. They are a handful as they all have different personalities and she did awesome. She welcomed in to her home and gave them a big yard to play in and let them hang out with her and her family. I would definitely recommend Sydney to care for your pets. Great temperament with dogs!”
“Felicia did an excellent job taking care of Holly. She made sure she took her medicine and fed her on time. Great correspondence with updates. I would highly recommend her to everyone in the area. I'm extremely comfortable with leaving Holly with her again. Thank you Felicia for the great care you provided.”
“She was great! Very communicative, arrived on time, and was flexible and willing to work with our schedule. Everything went smoothly, and we really appreciated how reliable she was. We will definitely rebook with her again!”
“Josh has kept my dogs multiple times, and he is simply the best dog sitter ever - in the history of the world! I pray he never moves or retires because I trust him with my dogs' lives, and he would be impossible to replace.”

“We will forever be customers of Sarah and her family. We recently left our two Yorkies in her care, and when one of them developed a rash, Sarah immediately notified us and even gave Armani a soothing bath to relieve the irritation. We truly appreciated her compassion, attentiveness, and genuine care for our pup. Highly recommend. Thank you, Sarah!”
“Esther was amazing! She allowed me and my husband to have a meet and greet with her and her dogs beforehand so we felt comfortable, she asked all the right questions about routines, she clearly told me her expectations and was very communicative. On the day of the visit, she sent so many pictures and kept me updated. I was worried Charlee wouldn’t eat much but she did! (And had normal bowels, which I was also worried about!) Glad we now have a safe second home for our pup when we have to leave her! Highly recommend.”
“BEST SITTER HERE ON ROVER!!!! I don’t even know where to start with how amazing Shannon was to my boys !! She was super accommodating even when the weather through a wrench in my plans she was able to help . From start to finish she was a gem ! And treated my boys with such care and love . It’s hard to find someone to care for your fur babies on this site .. and I’m so grateful to have met her and had our boys in her home . She updated me with pictures and videos everyday while I was ways . She made sure my German shepherd ate with helping with hand feeding him and adding some yogurt to his food because of his anxiety. She played with both my German shepherd and my golden retriever , and made sure they were comfortable on night one by sleeping with them on the couch , and she had everything and more for them such as treats , beds , toys . She was so AMAZING AND KIND! I absolutely loved her at my boys sitter and will continually book with her again, because my mind was at such comfort and ease while she had them in her care. I honestly can’t say how thankful we are to have found Shannon !!!”

Mac and Mo truly enjoy their stays with Marti and Trixie. Marti alerted me to Mo licking her paws excessively and seemed itchy. I was able to pick up some meds and Mo has quickly settled down. I appreciate Marti paying attention to my dogs as if there were her own. Thanks, Marti! They are enjoying the cooler weather and so am I.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Max! He has cared for our sweet boy many times while we’ve traveled internationally, and I always have complete peace of mind knowing Louis is in such loving hands. Max has the best energy, and it’s obvious how much he genuinely loves the dogs he's caring for. He sends tons of pictures and updates, which I absolutely love when we’re so far from home. Louis is always so happy to see him. Finding someone you trust this completely with your beloved dog is priceless. We absolutely adore Max and couldn’t recommend him more highly!
My dog Toffee seemed to enjoy his stay and to settle in nicely. Anna stayed in touch frequently over the few days that he was with her and sent photos as well as text updates. I appreciated those very much. I expect to have my dog stay with her again if needed. Many thanks!
I needed care for Cosmo for a long weekend, and it was really important to me to find someone who was not only comfortable with dogs, but genuinely loved and cared for them. After reading LaTwana’s story and learning that she previously had a dog similar to Cosmo, I immediately felt more at ease. From the beginning, LaTwana was extremely communicative, sweet, and attentive. She sent me pictures and videos throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell Cosmo felt warm, comfortable, and completely at home with her, and that meant everything to me! I’m so grateful I found LaTwana and would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog. If you want peace of mind, great communication, and lots of cute photo and video updates, she’s your person! I’ll absolutely be booking with her again. ❤️🐾
It looked as though Thor settled right in and made himself at home! I’m so thankful he was the only one there as he does not like to share space with other animals. After the excitement of returning home he relaxed and was acting normal again very quickly which we are so thankful for. Thanks for all the update pictures to ease our minds!
Rufus is so kind and super sweet! Moose gets along great with his adorable pup, and I love that they get to enjoy nice strolls along the River Walk together. Rufus also sends lots of pictures and updates, which I really appreciate. I always feel comfortable knowing Moose is in such good hands with him. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ciria was AMAZING. My only issue is that she doesn’t live where I live! Came here for a TDY and decided to board my dog last minute. She truly went above and beyond. She accommodated so much for us, was VERY attentive, and sent so many updates. I don’t leave reviews often, but I had to. Thank you for loving on Poppy!!

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.
<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.

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.
