“Caryn was an amazing cat sitter—reliable, kind, and very attentive to Oreo. She kept us updated and made sure everything was taken care of. We would absolutely hire her again!”
“Another stress-free visit from Mikelah! She does such an amazing job and it’s nice to know that your pup is being well cared for while you’re away from home. I’ve used her for multiple drop-in visits now and I only have glowing reviews to share. Will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Alexandria was absolutely fantastic! I'm so grateful for her. My old baby takes medicine and has some extra care needs and she was in the best hands while I was gone. She looked so happy in the pictures Alexandria sent every day while I was away, I'm so glad she was there for her. My shy kitty loved her too!! I highly recommend choosing her to care for your babies too. ❤️”
“This was our first time hiring a sitter for drop-in pet minding, and Karen made it an incredibly comfortable and low-stress experience. Daily check-ins complete with pictures and a little report kept us smiling and looking forward to the next day, so we could see more cute pet pics. Karen even caught a problem with our pool that we were able to inform our landlord of so he could take care of it while we're out of country - she really just went above and beyond, and we're so grateful for her work 🥰 We'll be hiring her again in the future, and I promise you won't regret doing the same!”
“Veronica was amazing with my puppies, They didn’t know her, and they fell in love with her, jumping all over her and waiting for her to pet them. She was so sweet with my babies and so easy to talk to definitely will book her again.”
“Marla was very responsive and attentive in caring for my cat while I was travelling. My cat warmed up to her quickly, and I was pleased to come home to a happy and relaxed pet.”
“Samuel was proactive in learning all there is to know in taking care of Miko. He did an excellent job taking care of her evidenced by how she happy she looks in her picture updates. I’m grateful for his help and expertise. :)”
“First time using Rover, and Andrea was spectacular. She accommodated my dog, cared for my dog and did exactly what I wanted. Very impressed with the drop-ins. Will use Andrea again.”
“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!!!!”
“Naomi is so good with my dogs! I can tell they are comfortable with her! Thanks you Naomi for making my dogs and their parents feel so comfortable with your services!”
“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.”
“Kristin checked in on our cat while we were on vacation. Usually he hides when we are gone, but he came out and greeted her on a few occasions. Kristin's communication was excellent and she took good care of our cat. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”
“Paige was wonderful with Maisie, she’s a rescue dog and very nervous. Paige was very patient. We will be booking Paige again so that Maisie can get to know her better in order for her to house sit when we need to be away over night.”
“Leigh takes such great care of our dogs while we are away. She makes them feel at home and gives them lots of love and attention. She also does a great job with special requests. Would absolutely recommend and we will continue to book her anytime we go out of town!”
“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!”
“This is the 2nd time Tim has taken care of our pups & I can not say enough about him! For years our family has not taken any trips all together because of worrying about our pets. At least one of us would have to stay back with them. Now that we’ve found someone that we can trust we can FINALLY all go together as a whole family! I am so grateful to Tim & the memories I’ve been able to make with my grandchildren! Tim is so kind & patient with our emotionally high maintenance dogs. In the past, no one could even get our bulldog to come out of his crate if we weren’t here & our rescue pup is terrified of everyone outside of our family but in a short period of time Tim had completely won them over. They absolutely love him! Tim is professional, reliable & excellent at giving updates with photos. I really appreciate him & everything that he does for our family! I will definitely be asking him for his help again in the future!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Shavano Park
Caryn went above and beyond to take care of our two cats. She came to our home twice per day at the times requested and provided detailed updates and great photos each time. Our cats sometimes won’t eat while we’re away and she persisted based on my instructions to do as much as she could you get them to eat. She spent time playing with them and made sure to look around our house when she couldn’t find one of them when she came over. She is extremely responsible. I will definitely have her take care of our cats when we travel in the future and highly recommend her to others!
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!
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
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Shavano Park on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 .
As of August 2026, there are 3,093 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Shavano Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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:
- 89% 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.
