“Truly the best sitter!! Hera absolutely loved her and I felt confident my sweet dog was in great hands. She gave detailed recaps of each visit which was so appreciated and I enjoyed reading those when I would have service! Will absolutely book again and recommend to anyone who is nervous of leaving their fur babies in new hands.”
“Ericka was a great pet sitter. I really appreciated the detailed notes of each drop in and how communicative she was. Will definitely book with her again.”
“Mel did such a great job at making sure my fur baby was taken care of while I was away! With the few instructions I gave him, my kitty was all set and looked after and I felt at ease the entire time I was away! Especially with all the pictures!!! Thanks so much Mel !!”
“Absolutely wonderful. I was worried because my dog is elderly and takes multiple medication but Jessica welcomed all of my request. They declined my offers to short-cuts and exceeded my walking expectations. The cherry on top is my dog looked healthier than every when I came back.”
“Adriana was a great help and looked after my pup. On time and was willing to adjust and work with me considering my difficult schedule. I highly recommend and will be rebooking in the future!”
“Ignacio was great! Took diligent notes during our meet and greet and asked a lot of thoughtful questions to ensure that my cat and apartment were taken care of while I was away. He was always transparent with timing and took lots of pictures!”
About: Hi there! I’ve been a dog sitter for a few months now and I absolutely love being able to provide care and support to my furry clients and their family. I spend most of my time with animals, if not my clients then it’s my own pets. 😊 I love to keep my clients in the loop-and provide whatever you may need to feel comfortable leaving your pets in my care. * I have two of the cutest pets in the world, a dog and cat. So if you need someone who can juggle and adapt- let’s connect! I currently am working part-time, so that gives me a lot of flexibility and time to be able to spend quality time with your pets. I have a friendly dog who would be able to keep your fur baby company, but I do have separate areas in case anyone needs space! I never leave my pets unsupervised, to make sure they don’t hurt themselves or break any furniture. I live in an apartment complex that is pet friendly and has an exercise area that is fenced! I like to make sure with any clients, I’m always supervising and nearby.
“I knew my cats were in the best hands, which made it so much easier for me to relax and enjoy my trip. And an extra thank you for all the photos — I have enough for entire photo collages now! I truly appreciate all the care and attention Sunny gave them.”
“Amber had a great attitude and worked very hard to ensure my cats had everything they needed while we were away. She was thoughtful with her questions and updates and quickly learned to respect each of my cats’ individual personalities to give them the best care possible! Wonderful photos and updates that made me feel like I was along for the ride!”
“Rufus is a legend! One week with him dropping in for an hour, and my Achilles is already listening better on walks, using the restroom with regularity outside, and listening better during indoor play as well. I always come back to my home just the way I left it, and have plenty of photos to beam and laugh at while at work. He seems to have an effortless relationship with dogs, with Achilles taking to him from day one, and his services really put my mind at ease! Will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Anne was very attentive of our pets, made sure they had their needs met. She went beyond what was asked, at short notice and we our very thankful to her. Thank you Anne and Rover for your help. Chad”
“Adirah is awesome! So sweet on our meet up she definitely assured me my kitty would be in good hands. Throughout the visit she took plenty of update pictures of him eating and playing alot. I strongly recommend her to anyone! I will message her first next time we need go on a mini vacation.”
“Very communicative! Received lots of photos and videos. Knowledgable of dog breeds and GDV. It was nice knowing she is as observant as I am. I have a food reactive dog and she followed feeding instructions perfectly. It brought me a lot of comfort knowing Anna was looking after them. Will book her again!”
“He did an amazing job pet sitting my cat! I got daily updates and pictures so I could see he was being loved and cared for. He followed all the instructions perfectly and gave us the peace of mind we needed on our vacation! Would recommend Patrick to anyone who needed someone to pet sit their cat!”
“LOVE Sierra! She is awesome and my dogs love her too. I wish I had more reasons to use her. I know my dogs are WELL cared for and loved when I hire her. I can't thank her enough for the wonderful job she does!”
“Charlotte dropped by our place to take care of our kittens while we were away and was wonderful with feeding, taking care of litter, and making sure the kitties were happy!”
“Tim is absolutely fantastic! My dogs are usually shy and they took to him instantly! He truly cares for your fur babies as individuals. I think he might speak dog. He will always be my go to choice.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs since middle school. My dogs, my family's dogs, and my friend's dogs. Large or small, young or senior, I’ve worked with them all. In my professional life, I’ve spent over 10 years delivering great experiences for customers, and I bring that same level of care and attention to both your pet and your overall experience. I’m a stay-at-home father who also works app-based contract jobs, which gives me flexibility throughout the day. I’m available from morning through night based on your pet’s needs. I also have a dog at home who regularly joins my child and me on walks around the neighborhood or at a local park. I have experience caring for pets both indoors and outdoors, and I adjust my care based on each dog’s environment and personality. Whether your pet prefers relaxing at home or staying active on walks and outings, I make sure they are safe, engaged, and well cared for. I take the time to understand their needs so they feel comfortable and happy.
“Bailey is super communicative and reliable! She sends pictures and is completely trustworthy & I will hire her again and again! I highly recommend her!”
“This is our second time to use them and they’ve gone the extra mile both times. They spend the time, love on our animals and take pictures. Excellent pet sitters!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - San Antonio
Connie was the absolute best dog sitter I could’ve asked for! I wish I could still have her as my sitter when I go to move to my next duty station. Connie has helped me these last six months, with having a busy, chaotic schedule. She goes above and beyond! She’s reliable, trustworthy, and always willing to help in any way she can! Scooby absolutely loved her, and I’m so grateful I found a trusted sitter for his crazy self. She’s literally the best!!
As always, Denigh went above and beyond in caring for our spoiled cats. She maintained great communication before, during, and after the booking to make sure everything went alright and that our cats needed for nothing. She is always so willing to adapt to each cat’s needs and make them as comfortable as possible. She also takes incredible pics of your pet that make traveling without them a little easier. Don’t hesitate to book with Denigh!
We had a wonderful experience with Katie! She took such great care of Ivy and Floki and kept us updated throughout each visit, which meant so much to us. It’s never easy leaving your pets behind, but Katie made us feel completely at ease. We came home to two happy pups and couldn’t be more grateful. We would absolutely recommend her and look forward to booking with her again in the future! 🤍🐾
Very communicative! Received lots of photos and videos. Knowledgable of dog breeds and GDV. It was nice knowing she is as observant as I am. I have a food reactive dog and she followed feeding instructions perfectly. It brought me a lot of comfort knowing Anna was looking after them. Will book her again!
This is our second time having Larissa watch our cat Electra, and I couldn't be any happier! Electra is very shy and doesn't normally warm up to people. But ut she warmed right up to Larissa and cuddled up to her. It was amazing!!! Larissa took great care of her and our home. I highly recommend her
Taylor was the absolute sweetest and best caretaker for my Sunnie! She made sure to track every walk with Sunnie, gave a detailed explanation for every trip made, and made sure to send pictures. She took the best care of Sunnie and gave her all the cuddles. Made my trip so stress-free not having to worry about my dog, or message her to make sure everything was going okay because she was doing that without me asking! Need a Rover sitter, book her!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in San Antonio on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,922 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across San Antonio. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
