“Amber is amazing and made my dogs and me feel so comfortable when we needed extra vet help while traveling in San Antonio. Super communicative, thoughtful, and so sweet to my pups. Thank you SO MUCH Amber for helping us!!!🩷🩷🩷”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
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
“Kristi was amazing! She was able to help us out last minute, became best friends with our dog Rocky. When she was watching Rocky she would send us pictures and video. Kristi was on time and constantly communicating. I would recommend 💯”
“My dog, my cat and I love Sunny and recommend her wholeheartedly to any pet parent. She provided great care, my pets looked happy, relaxed and it helped me have peace of mind while I was away. Sunny sends amazing visit updates, with walk and care details, and funny events that happened during each visit with my furry babies and this helped me feel closer and more relaxed.”
“Anne took good care of my cat Sully while I was away for the holidays! She was proactive and asked if I’d like him brushed or his nails trimmed, which was so considerate of her. She provided timely updates and was able to take care of small favors I asked from her. Sully seemed to enjoy his time with her. I recommend her as a sitter!”
“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!”
“Been booking Mr Mel every week since I've found him, he's so amazing with our extremely hyper Doberman, we appreciate you more than ever man, he always goes above and beyond!”
About: Hi, I’m Amelia! I am in the Southtown area, and I love animals. I’m new to Rover, but I have grown up with dogs & cats and enjoy them immensely. I unfortunately am unable to own any due to my job and apartment size. So I’d love to help take care of the critter you love! I’ve had dogs and cats throughout my life, and I’ve sat for both for my friends throughout the years. While my job keeps me busy throughout the daytime of the week, if you need someone in the am & pm or weekends, I’m your gal! ✨ I work full time for the USAF, so Early mornings pre 7 am and afternoons post 4 pm until about 9:30 pm will work best for me weekdays. Weekends and holidays are absolutely wide open! When I care for someone’s critter(s), I do so with my whole heart. I will give them oodles of attention and affection (consensually! I know not everyone jives with that) and make sure they feel well taken care of. I’m extremely detail oriented and will make sure that your pet and home are well taken care of in your absence!
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up around pets and have also had a cat of my own, so I understand how different each pet’s personality and needs can be. I’ve cared for friends’ and family members’ pets over the years and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive, whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care As a college student taking my courses online, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’m available for early mornings, evenings, daytime visits, and overnight stays. I provide in-home care so your pet can stay comfortable in their own space. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep their routine consistent, maintain a clean environment, and keep you updated so you can feel confident while you’re away. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home. I follow their usual routine and all instructions provided, including feeding, walks, medications, and playtime. I keep their space clean and secure, provide plenty of attention, and always communicate with the owner so they know their pet is happy and doing well.
“Ignacio did an amazing job! I have 6 pugs with very different personalities and they all loved him! He did a check in with them at my home while we were away and everything went great! He was attentive and paid close attention to detail. This was my first time using rover and I’m glad we got him to look over our beans. I will definitely be booking with him again”
“This was my first experience with Rover and it could not have been better! Jessica is so communicative and trustworthy. She was super accommodating for a last minute booking and did a wonderful job with my pets. Her updates were so detailed and well-done, I wasn’t worried once during my trip and was able to relax knowing my pets were in good hands. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for pet sitting!”
“This was our first time using Rover or even doing drop in visit. Ninfa was amazing! Her communication was impeccable, she took pictures and notified me the entire time. She took us at the last minute and will definitely be our go to in the future! Thank you Ninfa!”
About: I have watched multiple peoples pets and animals! I also have a 3 year old fur baby who loves to play and trained myself! I’m excited to welcome your babies into my home! I work from home full time. I own my own home with a fenced in yard! I’m available to house boarding, drop ins, and walks I have a fenced in yard and one 5 year old pug shitzu mix who loves to play and gets along great with other dogs
About: I have had my Labrador for about 14 years now. I have always been surrounded by dogs and enjoy taking my dog on daily walks. i’m currently on summer break from college so i have plenty of time. I am usually free anytime after 10:30 am everyday. I am pretty flexible. I have all types of accommodations for any needs that are necessary as I have years worth of doggie supplies around my house as needed.

Ericka helped check after my babies last minute and was such a life saver while I was out of town! One of my dogs has slight anxiety and she took time to play with them which helps him a lot. So grateful for her and he help, will defiantly request her again! 🫶🏼
I honestly can’t say enough wonderful things about Anissa! She took care of my two Great Danes, Staffordshire Terrier, and two cats for an entire week, checking on them three times a day. With five pets—and three big dogs—that’s a lot to take on, and she handled everything amazingly. From the very beginning, Anissa made me feel completely comfortable leaving my babies in her care. She sent me pictures at every single visit, and being able to see their happy faces and know they were being loved and well cared for gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She cleaned the litter boxes and backyard every day and even went above and beyond by vacuuming daily—which was definitely not something I expected her to do! Coming home to happy, well-cared-for pets AND a clean house was such a wonderful feeling. What meant the most to me was knowing that Anissa wasn’t just stopping by to check things off a list. I could tell she genuinely cared about my animals and treated them like they were her own. When you have five fur babies, finding someone you truly trust with them is priceless. I will absolutely be using Anissa again and, as long as she’s available, she will be the person I call whenever I need someone to care for my pets. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend her. Thank you, Anissa, for taking such amazing care of my crew! ❤️🐾
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
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.
