“Sydney was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Waffle. She did two drop-in visits and went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear right away that she genuinely loves animals—Waffle warmed up to her immediately. She was punctual, communicative, and sent thoughtful updates that gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I came home to a very happy and relaxed pup, which says everything. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Sydney again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter.”
“William did a great job. Our pups decided to bark at him but he still got the job done. They seemed to warm up by the last visit. Dog pics with each visit.”
“Claudia was great and reliable with my 3 month old kitten, she loves cats and she is so kind☺️ I was grateful that she was able to check on my kitten when I was traveling”
“Mikelah has been so great! She is punctual and always leaves a great overview of her time with my dog. She always takes lots of photos and it looks like he is having the best time with her. I’d book again without hesitation!”
“Caryn is wonderful! She asked pertinent questions during the meet-and-greet, and took notes which made me feel like she cares and takes her job seriously. I've used her twice now (once for multiple overnight stays and once for a drop-in). During both visits, she sent photos of Frankie, kept me informed, and left my house clean! I would highly recommend having Caryn watch your furbabies.”
“Andrea was great with Jax. She checked in often and provided great feedback on her time with him and clarified everything to ensure his needs were met. I can tell he enjoyed his time with her and I will definitely be re-booking with Andrea in the future.”
“Tim is an absolute rockstar with our pups! Even my little timid whippet is comfortable around him and that is no small achievement! I’m so happy that we found Tim!”
“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!”
“Sam has quickly become our go-to pet sitter. He is incredibly communicative, attentive to our animals’ needs, and genuinely caring - not only toward our pets but also when it comes to our peace of mind. We always feel confident and at ease knowing our animals are in Sam’s care.”
“Veronica was communicative and had excellent judgment on how to set the cats up as she was only dropping in every couple of days. She made sure the cats were inside prior to fireworks as requested and even took care of the gifts the little one brought in to express that she missed her boy.”
“We were in a panic to find a sitter and Marla saved the day! Blue says Marla is her BFF now and will miss her when we get home. I appreciate how well she took care of Blue, giving her all the playtime and cuddles she needed. Blue always looked so happy in the pictures Marla shared!”
“We went on a trip and were nervous to leave our dog somewhere not home because he gets anxious. They came over 3-4x daily and played/let our dog out and it was great! Will definitely do again.”
“Allison was great! I booked her very last minute, and she still made time to come over to do a greet and meet. She’s clearly a dog lover, and our pups instantly fell in love with her. And very affordable rates! 10/10 would rebook in the future!”
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.
“Karen was amazing with my kitties. She always sent pictures of the food, water, and clean box along with pictures of the kitties playing and cuddling. One of my cats needed to be in an e-collar, and every picture of him that she sent showed him wearing the e-collar. Her detailed visit summaries were correct and accurate descriptions of the kitties’ personalities, showing she actually spent time with them and kept them company during her visits. I am so grateful she took great care of them during the holiday season. Thank you Karen!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Shavano Park
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
Our first experience w/Rover was GREAT!! Our caregiver, Sydney, was personable, professional & totally committed to our pet’s needs, as well as our concerns in using this type of service for the first time. We are completely confident in endorsing the “Rover” program, & our new friend Sydney!! WELL DONE!!
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 🤩🤩🤩
Samuel has been sitting for both our dog and cat for over a year and has been wonderful. We have used him for home boarding and drop in visits at our home in the west side and he is always great with communication, reliable, and does great with our pets. We have been very satisfied!
Karen is amazing she goes above and beyond to make sure my fur babies are taken care of. She is very communicative and provides such great service! I would HIGHLY recommend booking with her, she has never let me down, this is the second time booking with her and will continue to book with her as she is very trustworthy! Thank you Karen!!

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 .

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 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.
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 Shavano Park. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
