Cat Sitting in San Marcos

“We are very happy with the way Mark took care of our fur babies. Mark followed instructions accurately. Furthermore, he was able to connect with the animals which made our vacation less stressful. Our dog is very social, but the fact that the cat started trusting him and showing up was a pleasant surprise. We are very grateful to Mark and would certainly recommend him. Thanks again and best of luck ??”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many different breeds for the last 8-10 years. I love dogs and currently have one 8 month old shepherd rescue that I have been (mostly) independently training at home as well as 2 cats- one whom is 6 years that I adopted when she was only 8 weeks and another that was a stray that my husband & I took in. All our animals are very loved and having them be a part of our lives has been our favorite adventure together 🥰 I am working at a school this year & going back around mid August but during this summer I will be available to check in/walk your dogs throughout the week because I know a busy workday can be stressful when you have your pets at home that would love attention & fun. Whatever your scheduling need is, I would love to discuss how I can be that best fit for you & your fur babies! Since I already have my dog to walk 2-3 times a day, I would love to be able to bring your dog along with us! My trailer park has a private park and is along an easy accessible trail so I can definitely bring your dog here or wherever you prefer we go! I am close by San Marcos and have taken my dog to Bradley Park and Discovery Lake so we would love to bring your fur babies along too!

“Adriana was awesome! She gave me thorough updates with pictures during her visit as well. It’s a relief knowing I have someone I can trust with my dog! I will definitely request her services again.”

“We were very anxious to leave our cat Bambi alone for the weekend for the first time and even more stressed when our sitter fell through last minute. Dana was incredibly attentive and patiently accepted all of our requests for Bambi on short notice. I definitely felt so much more assured that Bambi wouldn’t be completely alone and would have someone as compassionate as Dana to accompany him :-) Dana’s updates on Bambi during check ins really reassured us that Bambi was doing well. and in good hands :-) i would definitely consider Dana again in the future ❤️”

“Jessica went above and beyond to take care my dog and even came in one extra visit to get my package inside, I am so happy with her service and will go to her again in the future.”

About: I am new to Rover but not new to pet or house sitting in general. I have sat dogs and cats while family and friends have gone on extended vacations. I am fully background checked (teacher by trade). I love to go on walks and am great with consistency/expectations if your dog is in a training program. I am a teacher who is off for the summer with no vacation plans! I can dedicate a lot of time to checking on your cat or taking care of your dog. Dogs will have the run of the downstairs and opportunities for backyard play during the day but will be expected to stay crated/in pen at night. Feedings happen on the schedule you provide and dogs will get at least two walks a day. Doggos will be treated like they belong in my house. If interested in drop ins for cat care, I will play with your cat, provide pets and head scritches, check on food and water, and remove litter box waste. It is important to me that your pets feel safe and that their routine isn’t disrupted too much. So a meet and greet for us to both feel comfortable about your pet’s care is a must!

“Heather was very friendly and very knowledgeable about everyday kitty concerns. She's was willing to come by on a weekly basis which makes things much easier.”

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life. Since I was little growing up in Brazil, we had dogs, cat, hamsters, fish and roosters. Decades of experience made me comfortable being around your best friend. I will give my full attention and love to your little ones. Fints into daily routines by embedding, feeding, walks, daily schedule that ensures companionship and security. Incorporating exercise (walks, fetch) for bonding and energy management. Always ready for an adventure I work remotely and my schedule is very flexible all days of the week. I have a fenced yard with high walls outside. I will follow your instructions for your home care, however you need I’ll follow it.

About: I've had pets my whole life and I love ALL animals. I think it all started when my parents adopted a kitten when I was six and I would dress up the kitty in doll clothes and take her everywhere she was allowed to go! I always considered myself a cat-person, but when my mom brought home a puppy from a coworker many years ago, I took care of him like he was my own and sure enough he became my dog! I currently own one dog, two cats and a leopard gecko and they certainly make life more interesting with their individual personalities. My family has always called me the "animal-lover" because I'm the one who would frequently bring home animals that needed to be re-homed. I could never say no to anyone who asked if I could take in an animal, and if I couldn't keep them, then I would try to find someone else who could. I have much experience walking friend's, relative's, and coworker's dogs when they were on vacation. My most recent experience, for the past few years, has been dog-sitting a coworker's massive-sized Goldendoodle when he leaves town for Thanksgiving and other holidays. I give him food and water, take him out for long walks around his area and provide exercise at the park playing fetch and running around. I also fostered a sweet senior Pomeranian for a lady who was in the hospital a couple years ago and I've walked and dog-sat for many friend's over the years. People always ask me for petcare needs because they know I love animals, they trust me, and I don't have kids so they know I'm usually available. These were all good experiences that enriched my life and helped me know how to handle different pet situations. It makes me feel good knowing that I am helping either a dog get outside to relieve itself and feel the warmth of the sun or spend quality time with a cat while its person is away. I'm currently working part-time on a random schedule so I have plenty of availability to take dogs out for walks, check in on them for potty breaks, and provide stimulation and exercise. I live in a townhouse with a small backyard and a really high fence that is very secure for pets. I have a few different sized kennels to crate dogs who are most comfortable this way. There is plenty of room for pets to stay and pet gates throughout the house when needed to fence off certain areas or separate pets if needed.

“Aidni is reliable and Chauncey loved hanging out with her. I had a very last minute need and Aidni was able to help out. Will definitely work with her in the future.”

About: Throughout my life I have been surrounded by pets, especially dogs. Through this experience, I have become accustomed to taking care of them, whether they are large or small. I was always the first person to be called when neighbors were headed out of town. I am always down to exercise with animals, supply food and water, and make sure their experience of life is maximized. I am a full time student so school does take up a majority of my days, although I am totally open any time from Fridays through Sundays. My experience caring for pets has been your typical walk, making sure they are eating the proper nutritional diet at the right times, and allowing pets to lose any energy that has been built up. Animals are such a vital part of life so we must love and care for them just as they do to us!

About: I have previously taken care of both dogs and cats, even both at the same time! I have experience walking and overnight stays with dogs from a 100+ pound great dane pit bull mix to 8 week old puppies. I currently work in office from 7A-4P, M-F. So my availability on weekdays are strictly during nighttime. Weekends during the day/night are very much open and are my preferred booking times. While I cannot board pets at my house, I will do the utmost to insure that your furry friend is comfortable and safe while you are away! I will also make sure your house is spotless upon your return!

About: I grew up with dogs and have always loved being around animals. For the past 6 years, I’ve cared for pets for neighbors, friends, and family, including both dogs and cats. I’m experienced with pets of all ages and comfortable with walks, feeding, administering medications, and making sure they get lots of love and attention. Whether your pet is energetic or more laid-back, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and right at home. I work part time, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I can easily accommodate walks, check-ins, or extended stays and am happy to work with your pet's routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. Whether caring for pets in a client’s home or in my own home, I like to keep their routine as consistent as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. I’ll go over all expectations with you ahead of time, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care. Safety is always my top priority—I make sure doors and gates are secure and keep emergency contacts on hand. I also make sure your pet gets plenty of love, attention, and updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Additionally, I have a fenced in yard with no holes so your pet can remain safe and happy.

About: I’ve had all kinds of animals around since I was born. My family taught me how precious they are and how much they need our love. I used to pet sit around my neighborhood growing up to make extra money as well. I am starting out part time because I work another job, but I would love to be able to do pet sitting full time as a love all animals and get extreme comfort being around them. I am very professional and transparent. I’m strictly doing this because of my love for animals. I also understand how difficult it is to find reliable people.

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, I’ve had them from puppy through senior and understand the needs and care for all ages. I’m currently mom of 2 amazing pups, I promise I will care for yours just like my own. I’m a SAHM looking for a side job while my kids are in school, doing activities and/or during my free time throughout the week and weekends. Rest assure that your pet is in the best hands, If caring at your place, I will make sure that instructions given are followed and give your pets the attention they need, dogs have the kindest hearts and deserve to be loved and cared.

“Kateryna looked after our dog and cat while we were away. She was always on time twice a day to provide food, water and walks our pets. She sent photos with updates after her visits which put us at ease during our time away. Upon our return, the pets looked happy and healthy. Will book Kateryna again!”
