“Debe watched kylo for a couple hours and was great! Very responsive and sent pictures and updates regularly. She has a great backyard and two little dogs that were very sweet with my little guy. Thanks Debe!!”
“This is our second time using Amy’s service and we are so pleased with her. Our pup ran right inside like he was home which was exciting for me to see. I can tell he’s treated well and he LOVES her pup, T-Rex. They can play all day. 😄”
“Max is phenomenal! He takes the most excellent care of our little dude who is always so excited to go to Max’s, and always so happy when we pick him up. Cannot say enough good things!”
“Anna took great care with my little guy who was very anxious about staying over the first time. She had him sit in her lap while she worked at her desk. He sat in her lap while she ran a few errands. It was clear that he regards her as a good friend when he went running up to her for the next day's drop off. Anna is a real dog lover.”
“Snowflake was well taken care of for the day while we got to explore the not so dog friendly parts of San Antonio. Breanna was very responsive, friendly, and flexible making it a great experience for us out of towners!”
“Nacho was in great hands with Iliana and she took very good care of him. She is very attentive and understanding which was important to us considering Nacho is still very young. Iliana also sent updates during the day which ensured us that Nacho was doing good.”
About: I've been a lifelong dog owner and have cared for dogs most of my life. I've frequently dog-sat for friends and family over the years, including feeding, walking, administering medications when needed and providing lots of attention and playtime. I work from home full-time, so your dog will receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. My partner is retired and also home most of the time, so there is almost always someone here with the pets. Because of this, dogs are rarely left alone and get lots of care, playtime, and comfort during their stay. Dogs under 40 lbs. please. We provide a calm, safe, and welcoming environment and follow each dog’s normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. Our home has a fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy time outside. We also have a friendly 5-year-old dog who is low-energy and well socialized. She enjoys the company of other dogs but is also respectful of dogs who prefer their own space. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to us. We introduce dogs slowly, supervise interactions, and treat every dog in our home like part of the family. We are also happy to send photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Thank you, Divya, for taking such excellent care of my baby boy. He clearly enjoyed his time with you! I truly appreciate your great communication and dedicated care. Highly recommend!”
“Cannot say enough good things about Cathy!! Excellent communication and pictures, plus very accommodating to my whacky work hours. My dog can be reactive with bigger dogs, but Cathy was a pro and Bentley is clearly an angel with smaller dogs. You can tell she prioritizes safety and comfort with all the dogs she cares for, and adjusts introductions as needed. Total success! I can’t wait to book with her again :)”
“Kara was absolutely wonderful! She accepted my last-minute request without hesitation and immediately made sure to ask thoughtful questions about my fur babies’ routines and any special needs. Her communication was clear, timely, and reassuring throughout the entire process, which gave me total peace of mind. It was obvious she truly cared and wanted to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I’m so grateful for her flexibility and attentiveness, and I would not hesitate to book with her again or recommend her to others!”

“Rufus is great! Highly responsive and very friendly. My Bella enjoyed her time with Rufus and his dog Lonely. She was well cared for and was tired out after her stay.”
“Erica provided top notch care for our two dogs. When we got back from vacation, we could tell they were very well cared for. They were happy to see us yet we could see that they both really liked Erica by their demeanor. She sent pictures or video nearly every single day of the 9 days we were gone. Not only do I recommend her, we will definitely use her services again when needed (assuming she is not fully booked all the time!).”
“I really appreciate Juan for being able to take my dog for a day of day care at the last possible minute. We had came in from out of town which added to my nerves about leaving him in someone's care but Juan sent me constant updates of Clue playing and enjoying himself while in his care. If we are ever in town again and need services, we will definitely reach out! Thanks again!!”
“I appreciate Sundaye and her working with my schedule. Roxy loves staying with her during the day and always runs to the front door wagging her tail when I drop her off.”

Iliana is the best dog sitter ever! I have a rambunctious Dachsund puppy and she handles him expertly. She is great with him and is super flexible with our schedule. She also is great with providing updates, including pics and videos throughout the day. We are so lucky to have found her and recommend her whole heartedly!
Max continues to be one of my top go to doggy sitters! He is absolutely fantastic, always accommodating my whacky work hours and providing lots of updates and pictures. My dog is always so excited when we pull up to his place, and is so happy at pick up. You can tell Max takes fantastic care of the dogs, and I have zero worries whenever my little dude is in his care.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your San Antonio commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 TX 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.
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.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,053 sitters in San Antonio, 89% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
