“Claudia went above and beyond for my cats while I was away for my birthday vacation. She communicated during the stay and sent pictures of my babies. I felt that my cats and home were safe with Claudia!”
“Veronica has taken care of my boy Max quite a few times now and she always does a great job! She communicates well and is very professional. I would definitely recommend her.”
“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.”
“Marla was amazing with our pups! I had one who needed twice daily eye drops. We love all the pics of them hanging out or playing in the backyard. Marla was very patient with Damaris while she warmed up to a new person. I would love to work with Marla when we travel again.”
About: NOTE: Not taking any new boarding requests for November 2026. One of my dachshunds, Olsen, just had emergency back surgery, so I will be focusing on his recovery. ——— I grew up with a wide variety of pets (dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish), have been pet-sitting an even wider variety (parakeets, turtles) since I was a teenager, and also trained service dogs for two different organizations in college. I am currently the go-to pet sitter for most of my friends and family because they know I will treat their pets like my own (i.e. happy and spoiled). ——— I have experience with pets in all stages of life, as well as those with special needs. If your pet takes medications or has a complicated feeding schedule, I can easily handle it (bonus points if you provide detailed notes, though!). I am an office worker with a hybrid schedule, so I’m only in the office Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays. I am available for boarding and drop-in visits most weekdays, weekends and holidays. I own a small, single-story home with a large, fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood with a lot of walking trails and parks nearby. I strive to provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for all. Pets are also welcome on the furniture (I mean, where else will those snuggle sessions occur?). --- I have one cat and two dachshunds, so my house is both cat- and dog-friendly. I provide several cat trees, scratching posts, and litter boxes throughout the house. I also have multiple dog crates, as well as ramps up to the bed and couches.
“Our first time using Rover and Shauna was great! We weren’t able to bring our dogs with us on our trip but we felt comfortable leaving them after meeting her! Our dogs took to her and watching her with them I felt confident she could handle our dogs and their antics.”
“Absolutely fantastic! She came on short notice after being recommended by another Rover member. My fur babies loved her, and she was so gentle with my insulin dependent one. Highly recommend!”
“Tim was absolutely amazing. He stayed in contact and I could tell my animals really loved having him there. He was so accommodating. Right before the trip we sadly lost one of our loved fur babies and Tim sent me pictures every day of his grave everyday and still kept his spirit alive and it touched my heart. Would recommend to anyone to have him watch there pets as he was truly amazing.”
“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.”
“Renee is amazing! This is the second time she has cared for my cats and she is great. Renee does such a great job communicating and sharing updates about the pets, I love all the pictures she sends! I know my cats and home are cared for and safe when Renee is on the job :)”
About: Hi! I’m a dog and cat lover who would love to give your furry friends the love and attention they deserve! 🐾 I enjoy being outdoors and staying active, so I’d love taking your dogs on walks and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your pets! ❤️ I am a nursing student, and so I have time in the day between classes to help you out, as well as evening hours after school. I’m excited to get to meet your pets! I treat each animal like it’s my own! It’s important to me that they feel safe and loved while I’m caring for them. To make sure they are calm and content while you are gone I will do everything I can to make their environment a peaceful place to be.
“Kadence was wonderful. Pleased with her prompt daily visits with our kitty. It was so obvious he looked forward to her time with him. Very detailed reporting, with pics. We felt she went above and beyond the typical kitty sitter! Hope to call on Kadence again.”
“We had Sarah stop by and do a check-in on our brand new puppy. She was timely, took a handful of photos, and made sure our pup was comfortable and settled in her kennel before leaving. She did great! Highly recommend!”
About: I begged my parents for a dog since I could talk. When they finally allowed me to adopt one when I was 10, she instantly became the love of my life. Two years ago, I adopted my first puppy in my adult life. He has taught me so much as a pet owner. I love meeting new dogs because every one has an unique and special personality. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs alike and cannot wait to meet your fur baby! I currently work as a swim coach and have pretty flexible hours during the morning , mid day, and early afternoon. My nights are completely free. I love going on long walks and exploring new areas. I guarantee your pup will get a great workout and come back exhausted from our adventures. Along with this, I maintain an attentive attitude within the house and am always giving my pups attention even when completing other tasks. I love playing fetch and tug-of-war!!
“Jenn has been an amazing dog sitter for our new puppy Maddie. She’s been so sweet to our little pup and always very easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!”

Claudia thank you for your lovely selfless service. You do your care with so much ease, kindness, and professionalism. I couldn’t have chosen a better person for my fur babies. You make me feel at ease knowing my baby are well taken care of. Thank you for all you do. My baby’s love you! I appreciate you so much. Your help never goes unappreciated. You’re amazing 😻 ❤️💖🤎
Joshua took great care of our dogs. One of them is only a 3 month old pup, so a lot of work, but Joshua was willing and able to take them on! Appreciated the check ins. We had 3 check-ins scheduled and Joshua was prompt to each of them. I highly recommend him:) Thanks so much!!
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

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Shavano Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Shavano Park is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 3,076 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Shavano Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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
- 96% 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 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
