“When I returned home and saw my dog thriving, I knew I had found someone who genuinely cares. Kelly gave my Bulldog exceptional attention, going far beyond basic care. Knowing each visit was full of affection, bonding, and thoughtful support allowed me to be away with complete peace of mind. I’m truly touched and so appreciative of Kelly’s dedication”
“Jen is FANTASTIC! Always on time and took such great care of my babies while I was away. She was also very accommodating when I asked her to stop by earlier than what we had previously scheduled. Truly cannot say enough great things! I wouldn’t trust my dogs with anyone else!”
About: Hi! I’m Rodrigo. More than just a dog sitter/walker, I work professionally with dogs every day. As a dog parent of 10 years and a professional dog trainer who has worked with countless dogs of all sizes and personalities, I am not just a dog lover but someone you can feel at ease to trust with your four-legged family member. 🙂 Puppies, seniors, working dogs, reactive dogs, and so on. I’ve handled them all. Feel free to shoot a message with any questions or concerns and I look forward to meeting your dog! (: Currently have an open a flexible and open schedule as working with dogs is my full time focus. Please feel free to message me for scheduling questions (: I currently live in an apartment so I only accept about two or three boarding dogs at a time. Usually boarding dogs are crated within the home for safety. All training or fun will be had outside so the home if for resting and relaxing during the hotter times of the day.
About: I have 3+ Years of Dog Experience & Hands-On Experience with Canine Healthcare. I’m a pre-med student with over three years of experience caring for dogs and a genuine passion for their health and well-being. As a proud weenie dog parent, I’ve personally navigated my own puppy’s medical challenges alongside him, including trips to the Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital to help find solutions and get him the care he needed. These experiences have deepened my love for animals and strengthened my passion for canine healthcare. Your pup will always be treated with the same love, patience, and care I give my own!❤️ Here’s a polished version for your Rover profile: I work at a neurology clinic only two days a week and have plenty of availability for your pets! I’m available Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends, as well as Tuesdays and Thursdays after 6 PM. I’m also available for 24/7 potty breaks and care on my available days, excluding Tuesdays and Thursdays. Your pup will be staying in a safe, loving, and welcoming home with my friendly 6-month-old Dachshund, who is well-socialized with other dogs and regularly enjoys trips to the dog park!
“Jessica is fantastic! She goes above and beyond to care for our girls when we are out of town. The girls said she was so much fun and they can't wait for her to come back to play!”
About: I am a student at UTSA. I have one cat (Mara) living with me currently. But I have always grown up with many pets of different ages and sizes. I am a loving and caring person especially for animals. I love play time with them, gives me a little exercise too haha. I also have a lot of free time outside of school so I can take good care of your baby all throughout the day. I have experience with giving pets medications, even bigger dogs, so long as they aren't aggressive. I also have experience with handling senior pets. Book me and you are guaranteed your pet will be well taken care of! 💕 and I’m a pro at silly pet pictures, so you’ll get plenty of those. I have school monday-thursday but only a few classes a day so I have time before, between, and after classes. Otherwise my availability is fully open! I am skilled in cleaning up after pets who have accidents. I also love taking walks and play time. Lots of cuddles will be provided too.
“This is the first time I have ever had to have watch my dog in the nine years I've had her. Needless to say I was terrified. My dog is my family and leaving her someone i didn't know was not something I wanted to do but needed to due to changes at my job. Alexandria made me feel so much more comfortable with even just the meet and greet first. She truly takes of girl as if she is her own and has put my mind at ease knowing that she is in good hands when I am not there. I highly recommend her!! She is has also been very patient and understanding to my schedule, constantly changing due to my job.”
“Eric is definitely my No.1 sitter choice! He was caring and followed all the instructions we left for him. He communicated throughout his visits. I would highly recommend Eric to watch your fur buddies!!!!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family and deserve attentive, compassionate care while their owners are away. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of various breeds, sizes, and personalities, including energetic puppies, senior pets, and those with special routines. I provide dependable, personalized care tailored to each pet's needs, whether that's daily walks, playtime, feeding, administering medications, or simply offering companionship and affection. I know how important consistency is, so I follow each pet's routine closely to help them feel comfortable and secure. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and communicative. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages during each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and provide the same level of love and attention I would want for my own animals. I am retired and currently looking for part-time work doing something I truly enjoy—caring for animals. I have previous dog-sitting experience and genuinely love spending time with dogs of all breeds and sizes. Whether it's going for walks, playing, or simply providing companionship, I am patient, dependable, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will treat your pet with the same love and attention I would give my own. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and enjoy time outdoors. I have experience pet sitting for family and friends in their homes and understand the importance of maintaining each pet's normal routine. I'm also happy to welcome pets into my home, where they'll receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and a safe, comfortable environment while you're away.
“Faith took amazing care of my dogs while I was away! I had her pop in twice a day to let the dogs out and feed them, and she was punctual for every visit. The dogs were happy in every photo that she sent to me. Overall would definitely rebook with Faith when I go out of town again.”
“Vivian is wonderful! Very reliable and available. She has watched my cats multiple times and always does a great job! Always prompt and professional and I trust her to take great care of my fur babies when I’m away.”
“Was so patient with my anxious pup. She was able to gain her trust and successfully walk her. So communicative and a pleasure to speak to. I will be booking anytime I’m out of town and she’s available. She sent lots of pics and a sweet message when my dog finally allowed her to slip on the leash! 100/10 🤩🤩🤩”
“Emilie did a fantastic job of caring for our cats Cooper and CJ while we were gone. She was extra patient with our blind 16 year old kitty who requires a little extra attention and medication. She arrived as scheduled, followed all our instructions, and the cats seemed very happy when we got home. I recommend Emilie and would not hesitate to use her again.”
About: In my life, I have cared for nine dogs, one cat, two snakes, and a hedgehog. I find pets to be one of the greatest things about life and I love them dearly. Friends and family have asked me to pet sit since I was 14 and it's always been my favorite thing. I am currently a full-time student Monday through Thursday but with mostly online work so I will be available every weekday for about 4-6hrs each day, longer on the weekend. Unable to care for pets in my own home as I have my own cat that does not get along with most other pets however, I am able to care for your pets in your home any way that is needed including things like frequent potty breaks, mess clean up, daily walks, and plenty of play or nap time. I am more than willing to adjust to you and your pets needs.
About: I took care of my dog, Luna, since the first day she was born because her mom didn’t want her. I’d wake up every 2 hours to make sure she ate while she was little because I didn’t want anything to happen to her. Now she’s 4 years old running around with her parents and siblings. I have a cat, she recently turned one. I take her everywhere with me, she loves car rides now. At home I have dogs who I’d always look forward going to play with after work. Pets have been a part of my life for a while now and I enjoy it. When it comes to dogs, puppies, I know that most of the time all they want to do is play and I’m okay with that. I think it’s an important part of their life to keep them healthy and happy.I know some pets don’t like being alone and it’s makes me sad to see pets waiting by the door for their owners to show up. So I look forward to being with them whether it’s playing with them or just keeping them company while you’re out working or running errands.
“Abby did an absolutely amazing job! She stopped by my apartment to make sure my dogs was eating, walked them for 15 mins and playing with them for 10 mins. She did an amazing job checking on my dogs. I will definitely be using her again for my future needs. Highly recommend!”
“Laila did a great job with my son Mello and communicated very well! I wasn’t worried at all during the three days she feed him, I told her she was on food duty and went the extra mile to sit and play/cuddle with him. Definitely recommend”

I could not recommend Andrea enough! Finding someone I trust with my dog is not easy because he’s a little crazy and gets anxious around strangers. I’m always nervous leaving him with someone new, but Andrea has been incredibly kind, patient, and understanding with him. She took the time to earn his trust and made me feel so much more comfortable while I was away. She also went above and beyond when my flight was unexpectedly canceled and was able to accommodate an extra drop-in visit at the last minute, which took so much stress off my shoulders. I’m so grateful for the care she gave my pup and would absolutely book with Andrea again. If you’re looking for someone who is patient, reliable, and genuinely cares about the animals she watches, I can’t recommend her enough!

Sydney was very communicative and sweet towards my fur babies. Coming back home was like I never left, I appreciate how attentive and caring she was. She sent me multiple photos and videos which I greatly appreciated and asked all the right questions. Highly recommend, if I can book again I will!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Shavano Park 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 Shavano Park 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 .

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 Shavano Park with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
