“Olivia did great with my puppy Dolce. She was very communicative and quick with her responses. Sent lots of photo updates and kept me in the loop the entire time. Would definitely recommend!”
“Charlotte dropped by our place to take care of our kittens while we were away and was wonderful with feeding, taking care of litter, and making sure the kitties were happy!”
“He was so great. We had to find someone last minute and he fit us in! He sends lists of updates, pictures, answers questions, and cared so well for our boys! He took well to our boys and our boys loved getting the attention while we were gone. Thank you!”
“Ignacio did an amazing job! I have 6 pugs with very different personalities and they all loved him! He did a check in with them at my home while we were away and everything went great! He was attentive and paid close attention to detail. This was my first time using rover and I’m glad we got him to look over our beans. I will definitely be booking with him again”
“Sean was amazing with Moo! She can be very shy but she warmed up to him very quickly! He made sure to bring snacks that were meant for her sensitive tummy and was asked tons of questions about her needs and care”
“Mel was seriously so amazing in taking care of my kitties Orca & Ellie. We are so grateful! Lots of attention to detail and that in itself translates to being so caring and loving to my babies. Thank you SO much!! We appreciate you!”
“We needed a pet sitter to stay at our hotel with our little Yorkie Poo, Chrissy, for an evening and I was very late in arranging it. Odalys and Mel were perfect. They were tolerant of our timing issues and took excellent care of Chrissy. She got to explore on the River Walk, in her favorite "stop every 30 seconds and sniff" mode. We're very grateful for their care of her and will definitely contact them the next time we're in San Antonio and need pet sitting.”
“We’ve used Michael several times and our cats love him. We have a couple with special diets and he’s always made sure to give them their correct meds and food. I could not recommend him highly enough.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals as long as I can remember. Growing up surrounded by dogs, horses, cats, and other animals, I developed a deep understanding of their needs and personalities. From daily feedings and grooming to training sessions and playtime, I gained hands-on experience that taught me both responsibility and compassion. Whether it’s administering medication, mucking stalls, or comforting a nervous pup, I’ve always approached pet care with patience, love, and attention to detail. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet as if they were my own! I am currently a student and working part time as a CrossFit coach. I have lots of breaks throughout the day to come visit, walk and love on critters! I have a huge dog park within 100 feet of my apartment that has tons of fun for pups of all shapes and sizes! I can go for walks directly from your home, or explore new hiking and walking trails with your pup! I am comfortable with keeping dogs in crates, as well as out and about in the house!
“Faith was the perfect sitter for Sebastian. He’s very shy around new people so knowing he came out of the bedroom while she was there was awesome to hear :)”
About: I am a paralegal also making my way through my senior year of college at Texas A&M-SA! I have taken care of pets longer than I can remember, from having my own to pet-sitting for neighbors as a kid to earn extra cash! Our furry friends deserve all the attention, love and care they can get and I would love to dedicate my time to this and be your trustworthy and reliable pet sitter! For any info or questions you can reach me on my cell or email! If enough notice, I can accomodate a weekday stay. -Can do pick-ups/drop offs if needed -I don’t sit pets from different households at once in order to provide the best sitter experience ! -Have a fenced in back yard! I am a full time student and have another job as a paralegal, but with advance notice I can accommodate to the length of stay you may need to ensure that your Furbaby is comfortable while you're away! I have a fenced in yard and will never leave pets outside unattanded! I'll also make sure they get lots of attention while you're away since this may be a bit of an odd time for them in a new place! For extra peace of mind-i'll send pics of how they are doing while you're away!
“We had a drop-in visit with Marina, who is going to be house sitting for us and our two babies next weekend. She was promptly on time, very nice to talk with and presented herself as very responsible and dependable. I have no worries with her watching our little ones. Thanks!”
About: I began working in a pet shop at 16 years old. Throughout my life I have always had pets and cared for others pets as well. My connection with animals both my own and those I’ve cared for has been a source of joy and peace for me even when situations are challenging. I also have a good understanding of how animals can communicate through their behaviors and then adjust accordingly to help them feel better if needed. Any and all concerns with your baby’s stay will be communicated with you to help find the best solution for everyone. I live in a quiet, safe suburban neighborhood, and I currently work from home full-time, so your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout their stay I understand the importance of having proper supervision at all times. I am familiar with Rover’s safety protocols and I make every attempt for safety during the booking
About: As a hard-working, single dog mom of two, I know just how important it is to make sure your pups receive the love, care, and attention they deserve. Raising my two amazing dogs has taught me so much, and over the years, I’ve discovered a true gift for caring for small dogs, especially through helping friends and family with their furry companions. I work from home, and nothing brightens my day more than taking play breaks with my two lazy (but lovable) coworkers! My home is full of enrichment activities like dog puzzles, and I create a calm, safe environment with clear routines. To ensure every pup gets the attention they need, I only care for a maximum of two additional dogs at a time. Each dog has their own space, feeding area, and plenty of one-on-one time. Fun fact: I love making up silly little jingles for the dogs I watch and I’d be thrilled to add your pup’s name to my (future Grammy-winning) doggie theme song collection! I also recently added a hairbrush vacuum to my toolkit, perfect for dogs who enjoy a little grooming during their stay. I’m reliable, nurturing, and deeply committed to making sure your dog feels safe, seen, and loved while you’re away. I’d be honored to care for your beautiful pup like one of my own. I currently work from home, which allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. During the week, I’m available to feed, walk, and give your dog plenty of breaks, playtime, and attention. On weekends—and some evenings during the week—I’m also available for drop-in visits to check in on your pups and make sure they’re happy, safe, and cared for. In my home, I ensure that my dogs have a space that they feel comfortable in that kind of belongs to only them if they need time to be alone I also like to fold in one on one time with the dogs so that I can start to get to know their personality and how they communicate.
“We had to fly out for a three-day trip on very short notice. We have two cats: a 13-year-old diabetic orange cat who we call our "love sponge," and a thee-year-old lever, mischievous tortie. Morgan understood the assignment. She had not given insulin to a cat before. I showed her how to do it, left written instructions, and all insulin doses went well. The cats were happy and healthy when we returned. My diabetic cat had a veterinarian appointment when we returned, and his glucose and neutrophils were within a good range.”
About: I am a dog and cat owner myself. I am very fond of animals and enjoy their company. I have owned three dogs one large breed(Labrador Mix) and two small breed(Dachsund and cocker spaniel/Yorkie mix) but also two cats. Being able to spend time with pets has always been very fun for me.I have experience in caring for these animals and being able to provide them fun also. I have plenty of time on my hands currently and am able to have extra tasks like dog walking and caring for other pets around. I take my dog out for walks multiple times a day and take the dog to walk trails at least once a week. I tend to keep a clean environment so the pets won’t get into places they shouldn’t be in. I also do enjoy playing with pets

“Peyton is incredible! I have two miniature dachshunds and a labrador retriever and they all love Peyton! She knows how to read animals well and understands what kind of affection and play they need and are comfortable with. Our Lab loves fetch and activity, while the dachshunds need lots of snuggles and Peyton is able to give them all the care and attention they need. She shows up on time, is responsible, clean, kind, professional, and the animals absolutely love her. I believe dogs know a person's heart and intentions, and ours absolutely love Peyton, they are so excited when she comes to visit! I cannot sing her praises enough - she is absolutely wonderful!”

“I can't recommend Eliza H. enough as a pet sitter and dog walker! She has watched my dogs and cat multiple times, and each experience has exceeded my expectations.

Not only does she take the time to play and engage with them, but she also understands their needs and quirks.
