About: Animals have always been part of my life, from small pets to cats and dogs with all sorts of personality. My chihuahua is my little sidekick and does wonderfully with other pets. I’ve helped care for many friends’ and family members’ fur babies, and I’m committed to giving your pet the same comfort and attention I give my own. I work a typical 9 to 4 during the week, but I have flexibility on my lunch break for quick check‑ins when needed. I’m generally available after 5 PM for walks or visits, and my weekends are wide open for sitting, longer stays, or extra adventures and playtime. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m happy to adjust when I can to make sure your fur babies gets the attention they need. I have a clean, secure fenced‑in backyard that gives dogs plenty of space to relax, explore, and play safely. I live in a quiet culdesac neighborhood that’s not too busy, so walks are easy, calm, and enjoyable for pups of all energy levels. My own chihuahua is friendly, social, and great company for visiting pets. I also have an extra room with toys and a crate that can comfortably fit a medium‑sized dog if needed, so your pet will always have a cozy space of their own.
About: I am a former veterinary technician, so I’ve worked with all kinds of animals! I am able to administer injections or oral medications if needed. I am currently a full time online student, so I am available for drop ins as needed. I am not available to do boarding, due to the animals at my home. I will treat your home and your pets with the upmost respect. I strictly follow your house rules, keep your space clean, and send updates whenever you need!
“Best sitter! She took care of my 3 cats for 5 days. Followed all food, water, litterbox, and play instructions. Lots of pics and videos sent. She even cleaned up the glass my cat broke! And she fed my aquarium with shrimp for me. Definitely will hire again if I need another sitter before I move :) Thanks, Casey!”
“Janette is wonderful. She was prompt, communicated well and sent us constant photos and updates of our pet. She even went out of her way to do extra helpful tasks for us. We would feel so lucky to have her watch our cat again.”
“Jasmine was awesome and I would definitely use her services for my outdoor cat again! She made sure to send me detailed updates every day along with pictures. She is very friendly, great with animals, and easy to talk to, I would recommend her to anyone who needs help caring for their pets!”

“We’ve boarded Hazel with Sherilyn before, but this was our first drop in visit, and Sherilyn was awesome like always! She spent a good amount of time with Hazel, playing with her and keeping her active. She also went above and beyond when she came over and found that Hazel made a mess on the floor, Sherilyn cleaned it up for us, which was was so greatly appreciated! Thank you again Sherilyn!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Schertz
Emoni was been amazing. My daughter was unexpectedly hospitalized for a week and we needed someone to care for her high energy 2 year old Belgian Malinois who was not happy to be left alone. She did a great job managing his exuberance, as he is a handful. (If it had been me, I would have quit!) Not only did she feed him and play with him in the yard, she even went so far as to move things in the house that he was getting into. She truly went above and beyond. It was a such a relief to have her there and not have to worry. I definitely recommend her and will use her again.
I had a great experience with this sitter! She took amazing care of my dog and made the whole process stress free. I really appreciated the updates and photos, it gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands. My dog can be a slightly energetic but she handled him and everything so well and made sure he was comfortable and cared for. I would absolutely book with them again!
This was a very last minute reservation that kept changing and Barbara handled it all gracefully. I will forever be grateful for finding to care for our dog when we traveled. I wish we could take her with us on our upcoming move to Las Cruces. Barbara- thank you for everything!
Tara is an amazing sitter for our fur babies. She is very knowledgeable and comfortable with the dogs. The dogs loved her from the moment they met her. She was fantastic in making sure our older dog took her medicine. I really appreciate that she took the time to play with them during her visits. We loved getting updates and knew our pups were in great hands. I would highly recommend Tara if you want someone who will love your dogs as much as you do.
Mandy and her husband were fantastic! Our dog and cat loved them. My cat needs two pills a day and can be fussy with it, and Mandy was able to give him his pill with ease. I always received a ton a pictures of our fur babies which was amazing. I definitely recommend Mandy!!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Schertz 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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
