About: I am currently a dog dad to 1, but have 8 more at home of all breeds, energy levels, and sizes; so I am very well equipped and knowledgeable in pet care. I am an animal lover and enjoy spending time playing with and tending to all types of animals. I currently work from 8am to 5pm, Monday through Friday. So I am available before and after those times and fully available on the weekends. I typically spend 1 hour (minimum) with the pet in the morning and 1 hour (minimum) in the evening with overnight stays as needed. I am ready to adhere to any rules or needs for all pets. Whether I let the dog out to pee and spend the rest of the time with them sitting on my lap, leaving a door open for timid dogs to cross whenever they like, or spending time playing fetch or other activities outside.
About: I have great experience with training puppies, since I trained mine myself. Also, I recognize and adapt to each pet’s unique personality. I understand some pets need more attention, while others thrive on independence. I currently do not have a job and I am home for the summer, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet! First of all, I treat all of my pets with love. I also have a fenced yard and two cages since I have a small dog myself. I enjoy taking my dog on walks and playing with him. I also have dog bowls and toys!
“I was happy with our decision in choosing Pauline to take care of our 3 cats. She sent us updates and pictures of them and always checked in to see if we needed anything before she left. It’s hard having to leave your pets alone for a while but having her check in on them made me feel better about it all. I’ll definitely reach out to her again for next time :)”
About: I have cared for and owned pets my whole life so I am experienced with how to care for them, puppies and elder dogs included!

We have one senior dog who is great with other animals. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of running and play space.
About: I create a calm, safe, and cozy environment. I keep a routine, offer plenty of comfort, and make sure anxious or shy pups or kitties feel comfortable. I currently work from home and have plenty of time to provide top notch care to your fur babies! I am available any time! Weekdays or weekends, day or nights! I have a fenced in clean cut yard and small playful older dogs and a couple of curious cats. My home is full of love!
About: Whether you would like your pup taken on a walk, your guinea pig visited with, or your cat needs a trip to the vet, I’m your gal. Living on a farm since my childhood and now owning one myself has given me more than ample experience with a wide variety of animals to include, horses, donkeys, goats, sheep, cattle, pigs, alpacas, llamas, cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, turkeys, chickens, guinea hens, peacocks, and even exotics like kangaroos and camels. My services include, but are not limited to: Dog walks, cat visits, feeding, administration of medication, holding horses for the farrier, paddock and stall cleaning, transportation to and from the vet or groomer, plant watering, mail pick-up. Any services not listed that you need customized to the care of your pet can be arranged. I have great flexibility to meet your scheduling needs based on my bookings. For holidays I recommend reserving services in advance. I do schedule 24/7 at any hour if I have not been previously scheduled. I treat every animal as if it is my own pet taking extra precautions to ensure their safety and eliminate any cause for a dangerous situation to arise.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have 3 of my own. Once I got my own place I adopted a dog and 3 cats. I love animals and would love to take care of yours as my own. I have plenty of time for your pets. I would love to make this my full time job. I have pets of my own and would love to care for yours. I walk my dogs every day for 45 minutes at a golf course. Would love to take care of your animals and walk them. My life revolves around my pets so I’ll definitely treat yours as my own.
“A star sitter for sure! Kristie took great care of my pup over a long weekend! She was a natural at bonding with my super shy puppy and was even willing and able to help train her. She kept good communications up for every visit so I had peace of mind that my dog was in good hands and administered her meds on the day she needed it. She brought over some good lookin cookie treats and gave my pup a new favorite toy! Kristie also took care of my chickens and I when I came home, my place was left in way better shape than I left it! She went above and beyond for sure and she was also super cool and fun to chat with! I will definitely call Kristie next time I need help with my pup!”
About: My very first birthday request, from what I recall, was a Dalmatian or a Great Dane. My favorite movie as a child (not shocking) 101 Dalmatians and my favorite cartoon Scooby-Doo. I have taken care of parrots, cats, dogs, ferrets, raccoons, fish; their personalities are infectious. I recently read, “Your Dog Is Your Mirror”, by Kevin Behan it resonated with me. I adapt to animals and crave to know more about their mentality and personality. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. My availability to any family that needs extra assistance with their pet care is more than welcome to reach out. My home has accommodated dogs, cats and birds (at one time a tortoise) with ease. Currently, four happy pups live here living their best lives. Our house is fenced and well protected with easy access to food and water at all times.
About: Hello!!! I love animals I’ve had cats and dogs growing up my whole life so I’m pretty familiar with their care! I know how frustrating it is having to ask someone u know to put a stop in their day to help u out but sometimes it’s better to stress free and just hire someone who will devote their time to ur loved ones 💝💝 Im pretty much free availability for right now due to being laid off so anything can work, for the time being. As per overnight stays or just checking in during the day I would love to make sure their bathroom areas are clean and well kept, their food and water always being fresh and making sure nothing is out of the ordinary
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience and genuine love for animals. I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of who I am. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I’m patient, attentive, and responsive to their individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra attention, consistency, and basic training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require a slower pace, medication reminders, or gentle care. I’m very observant and make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Now that I’m away at college, I truly miss having animals around, so pet sitting is something that brings me joy in the meantime. I have a big heart for animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. 🐾💛 Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine because I intentionally plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. As a college student, I have structured class times, which allows me to create consistent morning, afternoon, and evening check-ins for walks, feeding, playtime, and any special care needs. I’m used to building my day around animals since I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day potty breaks, or evening cuddle time, I make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. On weekends, I typically have even more flexibility, which allows for longer walks or extra playtime. Caring for pets isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I prioritize because I truly enjoy it. 🐾💛 When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, exercise routines, and any specific behavioral needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets stay on their normal routine to reduce stress while their owner is away. This includes walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of attention and affection. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel reassured. If caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with close supervision. I ensure they have a safe space to rest, regular potty breaks, structured playtime, and lots of companionship. Because I’ve had multiple dogs and cats my whole life, I’m very attentive to body language and behavior changes, especially for puppies or senior pets who may need extra care. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always aim to provide consistent, loving, and responsible care. 🐾💛
“Margen was great! She responded quickly, made herself available last minute, communicated well, sent pictures of my pup and did exactly what I requested. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again :-)”
About: Any breed any size is welcomed! Whether you’re looking for a safe place for your hairy child to stay while you’re out of town or you’re just looking to have a vacation from your fur baby, you’re always welcomed to board with me. Hello! My name is Frank Barcenas. I am 28 and live in an apartment located in Bayview, TX. I have 2 pets of my own 2 dogs that mean the world to me and are by my side every second of the day. Taking care of dogs is a passion more than anything. Interacting with different breeds and seeing their different personalities is very interesting to me. I have been experienced with caring for animals for 5+ years. I have taken care of animals ranging from reptiles all the way to donkeys and pigs. I have volunteered at multiple animal shelters in the valley and have worked at multiple kennels aswell. I enjoy every second of caring for the animals making sure they’re in a safe and lovable environment as if they were at home. I am experienced in clipping nails, bathings, giving medication, giving shots, and general training. Boarding at my apartment, you can expect that your pups will be cared for and given lots of love and attention. One of the biggest problems dogs have are experiencing extreme anxiety when being separated from their normal routine. Having plenty of toys and multiple distractions at my apartment will ensure that your pet baby has a smooth and wonderful experience when boarding. When boarding with me you can expect multiple photos and videos of your pets daily while boarding. Work a 9-5 job. Pups would be inside during the hot hours of the day with my wife and will have small time outside during peak heat hours. In the afternoon when the heat is not bad they will be able to be outside 3+ hours I have a fenced yard. 24/7 supervision of the pups. Away from any high traffic roads. I have 2 pups who do well with other dogs

I am available a few days out of the week and if weekends are needed we can try to work something out.

About: I am an experienced animal caregiver, for over 25 years! I have experience with, puppies, all size, all type of dog breeds, kittens, cats, birds, sugar gliders, lizards, ferrets, etc. I have boarded animals in the past and taken extra care of them while owners are away. I am compassionate, patient, and am an animal lover at heart. I'm 44, a vintage lover and vegan. I am a dog owner myself and have had my own dog cared for during vacations. I have a 13 year old baby chihuahua (she will always be my baby). I also had a 100lb+ pup up until a couple years ago. I have grown up around cats since I was 14 as well, my partner I live with has a 3 year old cat that I care for as well. I will take care of your dog/cat like I would want mine to be taken care of. Your pup will enjoy my company as I will try to entertain your dog and send you updates as much as possible while you are away so that you can relax knowing your baby is in good hands. I currently make my own schedule and I do have obligations but I can be super flexible and for the most part I can work from anywhere. I currently am not offering to pet sit in my own home as there is not enough room. But I’m happy to sit at yours.

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 Benito 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in San Benito choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in San Benito with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
