About: For the past 40 years, dogs have been the heart of my home and my greatest joy. I’ve lovingly cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds , from small purebreds like Pekingese to medium and large dogs including Chow Chows, Dobermans, Rottweilers, and various lovable mix breeds. Each dog has brought unique happiness and taught me so much about giving them the care, routine, exercise, and affection they need. I only take one dog at a time so I can give your pup my complete attention. When you leave your furry family member with me, they’ll be treated like my own showered with love in a calm, safe environment in my San Antonio home. Your dog will never be just another guest, they’ll be treated like family. First, I try to know more about your dog , normal schedule, favorite toys, commands, what they fear and what they like. Building trust is going to be essential so my focus would be to create a bond with your pet. Consistency, patience, and love is what’s going to get us there. Your dog will have their potty breaks, morning walk or play time I have a two bedroom condo, one bedroom is mostly used as an office, I also have a large living room with a large balcony with views of large mature trees where we have visits of birds and squirrels.
“My pups enjoyed their time with Estefani and her partner and their pups! I appreciated how many photos and videos she sent me! It made me feel super comfortable to know they were in good hands.”
About: I will take great care of your fluffy! I have had years of experience with both house pets and farm animals! I’ve spent many years working on farms and have worked professionally as an in-home pet sitter for two years. I’ve had experience with elderly animals, puppies/kittens, special needs animals, and with administering medications. I am home full time, with plenty of availability to care for your fur babies! The backyard is fully fenced and there is a dog park close by! We have a spacious house that your pup is free to roam. The backyard is medium sized, safe and well enforced. We have a safe quiet neighborhood that is excellent for long walks, and the dog park is only three minutes down the road!
About: My dog of 14 years just passed this year, and I am really missing the daily walks and time with him. I'm not ready for a new dog, but want to help others and spend time with their pups! I had my dog from when he was 8 weeks old all the way through his senior years (and health challenges!). I love all dogs! I work from home and have a super flexible schedule. I can come by during work days at many different times! I do have a toddler who is at daycare from 730am-5pm, it would be very unlikely for her to meet the dogs. If you want to do doggy daycare at my house, I am home all day and we can take lots of walks together. I have a small fenced patio, and then a quiet street for leash walks. In my house, I have a large crate if needed and dog gates at the top and bottom of the stairs.
“Evgeniya was an amazing sitter for our Bella! She provided daily updates and pictures, which made us feel at ease about leaving her with someone new. We would absolutely recommend her as a wonderful pet sitter. Thank you, Evgeniya for taking such good care of Bella!”

Kaylee did a fantastic job taking care of my sweet boy Cash while I was on vacation for a week. She sent pictures and videos everyday so I could see how much fun he was having. She also took him for walks and even gave him a bath before he came home. We will definitely be booking with Kaylee again. She is top notch! Thank you Kaylee!
Cindy was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter! From the moment we met her, she was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and we immediately felt comfortable leaving our sweet Roxy in her care. We especially appreciated the daily photo updates, which gave us such peace of mind knowing Roxy was happy, safe, and well taken care of while we were away. It’s such a relief to find someone you can truly trust with your fur baby! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend Cindy to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! 🐾❤️
This is my second time leaving Cerci with Daniela! She is fantastic with our fur baby! She is amazing with communication, accomidating last min requests (like picking Cerci up from our home- thank you!!), and working with our schedule! Cerci loves spending time with her. (Daniela is great at spoiling her). I also love how Daniela sends multiple photos of Cerci so we can see how she is doing. I have taken Cerci to a few others on Rover and was left disappointed, now I won't take her to anyone else except Daniela. Im so glad she was available for us! Thank you again! We greatly appreciate you Daniela!
We had a wonderful experience! She took such great care of our two dogs and was very kind and caring. One of our dogs is very anxious, and she was so patient with him and made sure he felt comfortable and safe. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were both in such good hands while we were away. She did an amazing job, and we would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets. We would absolutely book with her again! 🐾❤️
Celeste was an awesome sitter! She treated Lucy as her own and kept me updated daily with pictures and the things she had done. It was the first time I had ever left Lucy, but she made my anxiety subside with daily accounts. I definitely plan on leaving Lucy with her again if I ever need to and I would recommend Celeste to others as the best sitter they can find!
Lasaiah was very good with Chewy. He immediately took to her and he usually takes his time figuring people out. Communication was good and she updated us on how he was doing during his stay. When I returned to pick Chewy up, he was very happy and energetic. I could tell he had a great time.
This was our first time boarding our two dogs, who are 8 and 9 years old, so I was very nervous. From the moment I met Steve and Randy, I felt relieved knowing they were in good hands. They have taken wonderful care of our dogs and sent us lots of pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. We couldn’t be happier with their care. They are wonderful sitters—highly recommend! Five stars! 👍🐶❤️
Candy was wonderful with Boo Bear and Suzie Bear. Both of our dogs are seniors and have medications and special care needs, and she handled everything with patience and attention. She kept us updated while we were away, which gave us a lot of peace of mind, and it was so nice to see how comfortable and happy the doggies were with her. We truly appreciate the care she gave them and would absolutely trust her to watch them again.

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 .
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.
