“Kristi has dropped in on my fur baby a few times. Quick responses, good communication, flexible and always on time. I would recommend Kristi if ur looking for care with your animals.”
“We love Amber! She is dependable, reliable, punctual, and always accommodating to my always changing schedule. Amber is very tender to my senior dog. Very happy with her!”
“Mr. Zaihyden has been a pleasure to meet and work with. He has been a tremendous help by checking in on, feeding, and walking my dogs, which has allowed me to focus on work and run errands with peace of mind. He is wonderful with both of my dogs and always treats them with patience, kindness, and care. I highly recommend booking him if you need a reliable and professional pet sitter or dog walker. I look forward to booking his services again in the future.”
“Nev was so great for daily visits for our senior dog Duke while we took a mini vacation. Thank you so much for accepting our booking on such short notice—we truly appreciate your flexibility and willingness to help us out last minute. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pet was in good hands, and we’re really grateful for your kindness and reliability. We would absolutely book with you again!”
“Anne did a wonderful job caring for my very shy, anxious cat! She usually hides whenever new people are over, but she was comfortable coming out for pets the first day. Anne was very communicative about how my cat was doing and any timing updated. I would definitely book with Anne again in the future!”
“Excellent communication and Ignacio took wonderful care of my pets while I was out of town! He provided updates twice a day and photos as well. All the cats bowls and litter boxes were kept neat and tidy. Really a wonderful and friendly sitter! Highly recommend”
“Sunny was great! She was very kind and sent updates. She made herself available and was very professional when my cat threw up while she was there. Definitely recommend her!”
“Sara did an excellent job taking care of my girls. I was most impressed with how she was attune to my pets’ personalities, ensuring to give play time, cuddles, and personal space as appropriate. Sara’s services gave me peace of mind knowing my girls were well cared for and my home was safe and looked after. Her regular, detailed updates and check ins were much appreciated. Would recommend her to anyone, and I will definitely be using her services again ☺️”
“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! 🤍🐾”
“Jerry and Tito got along from day one. Jerry is responsible and takes the time to make sure Tito is comfortable. Jerry has full access to my home and is trustworthy and respectful, even sticks around to make sure Tito is ok after his long walks.”
“Mel was seriously so amazing in taking care of my kitties Orca & Ellie. We are so grateful! Lots of attention to detail and that in itself translates to being so caring and loving to my babies. Thank you SO much!! We appreciate you!”

“We were delighted with the care that Camila lavished on our kitty Paulie, and the sweet pictures she sent us that gave us peace of mine. Very happy with our booking!”
“They took excellent care of our 16 yo Chihuahua and 8 yo cat! They were very thorough, always refilled food/water, gave treats, played with them, made sure they had potty time, and even brought in packages left outside. Definitely recommend booking these two if you want peace of mind your pets will be well cared for.”
“The Best Dog Sitter Ever! This was our very first time using a sitter, and we will never go back to boarding! Ericka went above and beyond every single time she cared for our pups. They were so happy and comfortable, we could tell they were being loved just like they are at home. Ericka was amazing with communication! She sent tons of pictures and videos, kept us updated after every visit, and always made us feel at ease while we were away. She was also incredibly flexible; when our flights were delayed and we had to add two last-minute visits, she responded right away and didn’t hesitate to help. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and genuinely passionate about animals, look no further. Ericka is the real deal! We’re beyond grateful to have found her and will definitely be booking with her again.”
About: Countryside-raised animal lover and proud pet mom to a dog and a cat. As a Rover client myself, I’ll treat your fur babies with the same love, care and respect as my own. I am a work from home marketing freelancer and military spouse. I have the flexibility of making my own schedule which means I can easily fit drop in visits and walks around your pet’s schedule rather than mine. Available throughout the day for visits and walks, including weekends, I’m happy to accommodate both recurring bookings and last minute requests whenever I can. Because I work from home, I’m rarely away for long stretches, so your pet gets consistent attention and reliable timing. Whether your dog needs a midday walk while you’re at work or your cat needs daily check-ins while you travel, I can build my day around what works best for you and your pet. I understand how much trust it takes to let a stranger into your home and pet’s life because I felt the same worry myself. I treat every home with respect, follow your instructions and your pet’s routine exactly as you’d want and keep all keys and access details secure and private. You’ll receive photos and updates with every visit so you can see what your furry baby is up to while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind by caring for your pet and home as I would my own.
About: I’ve been looking after dogs and cats since I can remember. I grew up in the UK in a house full of animals. I would look after neighbours dogs in my spare time and have always loved meeting and caring for dogs and cats young and old. I’m currently working part time and wfh in King William so I have plenty of time to look after your doggies. My flexible work allows me to be flexible to your schedule! My wife and I have a yard and a super friendly dog called Loney. He’ll be just as excited to see and care for your doggies as I will! We live just off the river walk in King William so there are loads of walks to be had. It’s also an easy central location to travel anywhere needed.
About: My name is Alexis. I’ve had pets my entire life and for the past three years, I’ve started caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different sizes and breeds. I have plenty of time to play with your puppy! I currently work part-time and have a lot of free time on my hands for the summer. I have a fenced yard and one older dog aged 13 years named William he’s a schnauzer a family dog and is very friendly .
About: If your dog has rocket-fuel energy, Olympic-level zoomies, or simply thinks walks are a scam, I’m your girl. I’ll bring them back happy, exercised, and significantly less likely to redecorate your house with chew marks. Benefits: Run it out or lose your mind. (Zoomies don't pay rent) Healthy Weight. Anxiety leaves the chat= Peace through exhaustion. Tire the brain. Silence the chaos= Mental stimulation. I'm a lifelong runner (28 years) and dog lover with a Blue Heeler (having owned two) and Heeler/ Husky mix, I understand their high energy and exercise requirements. Every session is geared towards their needs for the day. I still do offer,"Mosey walks" perfect for older/ senior dogs (Ranger is 10), or less energetic pups who still love to explore. Additionally, a TON of love and attention. I live in the King William area and two blocks from the river. My ultimate goal is a happy, well exercised dog, who sleeps well at night or even if they have to be put back in their kennel. I'm punctual, communicative, and send updates. Jenn I work from home building my business, so I’ve got flexibility — and yes, I can usually handle last-minute runs and walks. My dogs live for outdoor time (Nellie insists on her two-mile morning run), and I fully support their commitment to fresh air and movement. Your dog gets that same freedom and attention. Your dog’s safety isn’t optional — it’s the standard. My dogs are everything to me, and yours get that same level of care. From shady river paths near King William and HemisFair Park to smart, shade-first routes by your home, every walk and run is planned with comfort, awareness, and trust in mind. -Insured Dog Runner

Zaihyden has been a great help for over a month now, coming almost every week. He is honest, trustworthy, has excellent communication, and is always dependable. He is wonderful with my dogs, and they have grown to love him and are very comfortable around him. As long as he is available, I will continue booking his services and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter or dog walker. His help has given me peace of mind, allowing me to take a break and have the freedom to do other things while knowing my dogs are in great hands.
Allison was wonderful with my cat, Ham. It was a last minute booking and she even watered my plants while I was gone. Ham absolutely loved her and all the attention and playtime. I’m beyond thankful and will most definitely be rebooking with her again for any future sitting needed.
Sunny was wonderful! She stepped in on very short notice, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter..She has a warm, friendly personality, and Winston adored her. She took him on walks, gave him treats, and kept him happy and well cared for. She was reliable, caring, and an absolute pleasure to work with. I would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.🐾
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!
Connie did an amazing job checking in on Ollie while I’ve been out of town! I loved all the photos and updates she sent, it really gave me peace of mind knowing he was being well taken care of. I’m sure Ollie enjoyed her company and all the attention she gave him. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
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!
Alondra is great , I can’t recommend her enough! She went above and beyond in every way while taking care of my pets. Not only did she make sure everything was handled perfectly, even dealing with an outstanding issue, she also kept me constantly updated with messages and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. I'm very thankful again for the extra issue with the door.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in San Antonio on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,928 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:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
