“It was our first time using Rover and Ashley was great with our puppy Buzz. She sent us updates and pictures during his time with her. We will definitely use her again!”
“My dogs have a dog door and someone home pretty much all the time. They come and go out the door as they please and Cindy was able to provide a similar routine + her dogs = bonus friends! Cindy is a pleasure to work with. She is well equipped for the job and everything went smoothly. I I knew they were in good hands while I was away!”
“Our 6 month old puppy had a fantastic time with Morgan and her beautiful family! Her children are lovely and gave him a great time and the best belly rubs. Morgan also provided timely updates and photos. Would definitely board again!”
“We couldn't be more grateful to Michaella for taking such amazing care of our dog while we were away. From the start, she made us feel completely at ease with her kind and professional approach. It was clear that our pup was not only safe, but also truly loved and cared for like one of her own. Michaella kept us updated with regular messages and the sweetest photos, which really helped us feel connected and reassured. Her communication was excellent, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. Our dog clearly adored her, and we came home to a happy, relaxed pup—which says it all. We highly recommend Michaella to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and responsible caregiver. She's simply the best! 🐾”
“Maggs was great! My dog, Henry, stayed with Maggs for over a week. He had the best time! Maggs sent us multiple updates and pictures/videos everyday. Henry is a high energy golden retriever and she kept him exercised and entertained the whole time - even when it was muddy outside! Henry loved playing with her pups as well! We will definitely be booking with Maggs again! Five Star!”
“Hi Sophia and Kevin, Thank you both so much for taking such incredible care of Bombón over the past two days! We were so happy to see how comfortable and happy he was with you. You truly have a special way with dogs, and it means the world to us to know he was in such good hands. He's already missing you, and we're so grateful for the peace of mind you gave us while we were away. We'll definitely be reaching out to book you again the next time we need a sitter. You're the best!”
“Had a great first experience boarding with Joshua! Our dogs got along well and she seemed to have a great time. Would definitely recommend to friends and book again!”
“Amazing family! Great energy they sent me photos and my boy was snuggled in a blanket and they gave him great treats will use tell everyone! I am grateful and my dog is too 🙌🙌🙌🙌 merry Christmas to y’all’s family 🎄🎄🎄❤️🔥”
“Communication from the beginning was top tier and Emma was great with my baby. He seemed so at ease when I picked him up and his body language told me everything I needed to know. Emma is super easy to talk to, extremely sweet and friendly. Thank you for taking in my little guy, we’ll definitely be booking again when needed.”
“This was easily the best boarding experience. I have had the pleasure of having. We did a meet and greet before boarding to ensure that my dogs were a good fit and after we had an assessment, we continued with the boarding the following day. I was pretty nervous because one of my dogs is very high energy, and I worry that some folks may not know how to handle that. Not only what she messaged me updates, but every couple of hours she would also send photos of my dogs on how they were interacting in the yard with other dogs. She checked in the following morning after their first night of sleeping to inform me how things went the night previously as well as a general agenda of the day. I have never felt more secure and leaving my dogs with someone. An absolute blessing and a wonderful person, thank you again! Champ and Max are so excited to see you all again!”
“Awesome stay for our Koko. Ariel was very friendly and responsive from the get go. She made me feel at ease the whole time Koko was there. It seems like they treated her as part of their family. We will definitely be taking Koko there again!”
“Tia is amazing! My dogs didn't want to go home. Now I actually feel like I don't spend enough time with them. If I need a sitter in the future, I just pray she's available. Awesome job!”
“Kristen and her family we're awesome hosts for our two puppy's. We got pictures and texts throughout our trip, which kept our minds at ease. Kristen was able to handle our puppies who are still trying to get that hang of potty training, and one of our puppies tends to have a little medical issues sometimes and she didn't have a problem with watching over her. They gave them a bath and we're sporting some very fetch and dapper bandanas when we picked them up. Great people and awesome dog boarders!”
“Highly recommend! Our fur babies love, love, love Richard and his wife and I'm sure we will hire them in the future! They welcomed our pups and treated them as their own. They have a beautiful large fenced backyard with shaded areas and lots of room to run and play with their pets. From 1 to 10 paws, Rosie and Wesley give this boarder 12 Paws!!!”
“Melissa was awesome! Bella is my rescue dog that I have only had for a couple months. I needed someone to watch her at the last minute and Melissa jumped right in to help me. Bella is still very apprehensive because of her previous life. When we dropped her off, she was very anxious which made us worry about leaving her. Melissa knew exactly how best to care for her. She immediately put my mind at ease by letting me know how she was doing and taking pictures and videos. She also took Bella on 2 walks a day - which she loves. Because of Melissa I was able to enjoy my weekend out of town and not worry about how Bella was doing. I will definitely use Melissa again in the future.”
“This was my first time having to use a dog sitter and was not disappointed ? Loretta kept me updated with lots of pictures and texts of my old girl. Will definitely book again. :)”
“I had to go out of town last minute and booked the weekend for Wendy to watch my pup at her house and she was fantastic! Wendy was very responsive to my texts and very flexible with timing of pick up and drop off. While I was gone, she sent me lots of pictures and kept me updated. Her daughter loved my pup as well and spent lots of time and attention with him. She has a nice backyard and two sweet beagles. My pup loved it there so much that he tried to run back upstairs when I went to go pick him up. Will definitely book with her again next time I'm in need of a sitter!”
“ANOTHER fabulous dog-cation! Vinter loves his time with Steve & Randi and Mika! He knows exactly where we are when we pull up to their driveway and he RUNS to their front door ready to play! We always receive LOTS of photos and Vinter is so happy and comfortable and cared for while we are away. Thank you so much!”

“Kara did an amazing job caring for my cat while I was away for 4 days. She kept food, water, and litter clean and fresh, and spent time entertaining and interacting with my cat during each visit. I especially appreciated the detailed updates and photos she sent, which gave me peace of mind while I was on vacation. I would definitely recommend Kara to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Stacey was excellent in every aspect during her drop in visits with our three dogs and cats. She kept a very close eye on a skin irritation that had developed on one our dogs and she updated us with pics daily. She was truly concerned with the health of our pets. We could not recommend her more. She is fantastic.”
“Odalys was amazing. She took care of Link as if he were her own. We were very anxious to leave him home for the first time but I’m glad she was there to take care of him. She updated us with tons of pictures and that was very comforting and she communicated with great detail. Thank you again so much for the great job! 100/10!”
“Robyn was great. We got stranded by weather circumstances and she continued to visit our pets until we could get home two days later. Competent and efficient and the kitties were happy and purring upon our return”
“I couldn't ask for a better experience with Tim. He was attentive, responsive, and carried out my (borderline unreasonable) instructions to the letter. My two cats took to him right away. (They trust nearly nobody; I was amazed by their immediate comfort with a new person.) Tim provided me with daily updates and I had no worries about their care while I was away. In short, Tim and Rover made me able to enjoy my vacation. Tim is my go-to for future sitting, full stop.”
“Michelle was amazing! She was thorough with her questions and even sent pics while she took care of our dog and cat! The house was as we left it and I’d hire her again without a second thought! She’s awesome and very trustworthy!”
About: I’ve owned cats for my entire life! I’ve always had a cat in the house and currently have two of my own. I do not mind giving medication, or cleaning the litter box if needed. I enjoy playing with the kitties and giving pets and mental stimulation.
About: I can care for all animals, Ive grown up with animals my whole life and I am able to help with exercising your pets or just help out with giving your pet the attention they need to be healthy and happy. I am a very open person so you can definitely ask me any questions before hand if needed. I am a very active person, I have two days off and I’m pretty consistent with managing my time. In these two days I’m pretty much free and really use it to rest and hang out with my animals. I do my best to stay on top of their hygiene. I make sure to give them the right amount of exercise and attention they need to give them a happy and healthy life. I am very observant and do my best to make sure my animals are cared for.
About: Whether your dog needs play time or a quiet environment, they will love hanging out with me and my 4 legged companion. When I'm not working, my dog and I go on some pretty cool adventures together and he loves it when I dog sit a dog at his speed. Your dog will not be cooped up in a kennel unless you make this request. When they are not playing, your pet will be kept indoors. I have over 10 years of working with bully breeds and hybrids. High energy breeds is my field of expertise. My home is minutes from the beautiful San Antonio River and we visit there often. Some of our favorite hangouts are, the Pearl Brewery, San Antonio Riverwalk, Alamo Quarry, Calaveras Lake and many nature trails in our area. I will spoil your Best Friend as I do my own. Proceeds from my Pet sits will benefit my non profit that provides emergency groceries for Homebound Seniors. About this sitter: I totally get it! Let me visit your pets in the comfort of their own home. I'm use to traveling and frequent the major cities of TX every month. I am very familiar with the city of S.A. and surrounding. Your dog will receive a walk twice a day if you would like him or her to. I have trained and worked with all breeds and sizes so no dog is too big or high energy for me! Why I love dog sitting My Grandfather raised German Shepherds and my Father loved Large Breeds. Growing up, I remember always having dogs. In 2000 I started a group called Mutt Rescue & Adoption to help save dogs that are pending euthanasia at the city Pound. Our group rescued and transported animals nationwide. We saved thousands of dogs from euthanasia! My experience administering medication I can administer medication by oral or injection. I can take your do on early morning walks/runs or late runs, temperature and weather permitting. I am an avid runner so high energy breeds work great with my lifestyle! I try to stick to the dog's current schedule. If it's a puppy, then I help with the toilet training process. I do have 2 cats in my home, but they can be separated to another bedroom if your dog does not co exist well with cats.
About: What sets me apart is the professionalism and passion I’ve poured into the pet industry for over 10 years! While I have a background as a Senior Trainer, I bring that same "meticulous attention to detail" to my feline friends to ensure they are happy, healthy, and pampered. Here’s why your cat will love hanging out with me: • Medication & Meal Prep Pro: Whether it’s a strict supplement schedule or a specific gourmet recipe, I handle medical and dietary needs with total accuracy and care. • The "Cleanliness Queen": I have a passion for maintaining a spotless environment! From deep-cleaning litter boxes to keeping your kitchen organized, I leave your home better than I found it. • Patience for Every Personality: Whether your cat is a social butterfly or a "spicy" independent spirit, my calm and patient demeanor helps me build a bond of trust with even the shyest kitties. • Elite Trust & Security: You can travel with total peace of mind! I’m highly experienced in managing high-end estates with the utmost discretion and respect for your privacy. • Top-Tier Updates: Expect upbeat, detailed check-ins and photos so you can see exactly how much fun we’re having! My goal is always a 5-star experience for both you and your cat.

“Jeffery and his wife are super friendly and accommodating. They've taken my reservations with little notice and my dog has fun and comes home exhausted. Will definitely book again!!”
“We just moved in the area 6 months ago. This is the first time we used Rover and the first time my fur babies will be staying in a different house. You can just imagine how nervous I am and also for my fur babies. We did a meet and greet before deciding to book. My husband and I were very pleased with the way they introduce our dogs with their own dogs. We are also very happy to meet everyone that will/might interact with my dogs. The first day I was nervous to leave them but Kristen made sure I received updates and pictures the whole day. She assured me that they are fine and they are having a great time, which they were. I really like that they are good with communicating with us and letting us know if they have questions or we need anything from them. I definitely RECOMMEND Kristen!”
“Jack had so much fun with Becky & her pup! He played all day and came home exhausted. She was super flexible with timing to drop off and pick up, and very communicative. We received several updates and pics throughout the day! Will definitely be our go-to in the future!”

About: Hello everyone! My name is Morgan! I am a stay at home mom of 5 active children. We’re an active family but I homeschool so my children are home with me all day. I’ve taken care of many dogs, cats and various other animals from the time I was very young! My family has always had many pets around our home and my children absolutely love all pets as their own. Pet care would fit right into our daily routine. I have many hands that can help with pet care and ensure that your pet is very spoiled and well loved while in my home. We will not board more than 2 pets at a time. If the two pets are from different homes they will not be left in the same room with each other when we leave our home. Your pets safety while in our care is of utmost importance to me. I can crate your pet as needed or not. Take your pet on walks and make sure they are given plenty of attention and love during their stay in our home.
“So thankful to have found Criss on short notice. We very recently moved here from out of state. So finding someone that understands my dogs health issues were very important. I was very happy to receive updates pics through out the day. Anyone who’s wanting a calm, safe and loving environment STOP scrolling and book. We will be back. Thank you again.”

I have extensive experience caring for a wide range of animals—including dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and reptiles—since a young age.

I do have two young daughters, ages 4 and 2. They are very well-behaved around animals and understand the importance of being gentle and respectful—such as not pulling on tails or ears. I also work from home as a nail technician and run a small coffee/food business, which allows me to be present throughout the day. Because of this, your pet will receive consistent supervision, attention, and plenty of playtime. I’m very flexible and happy to work with you to accommodate scheduling needs, including times and dates. I offer a variety of toys and a spacious backyard where pets can safely roam and play.

About: I have been around all sorts of animals since my first memory! Growing up I was around breeds such as chow-chows, rottweilers and the most vicious of all, chihuahuas ;) from birth to the end. I currently have 4 doggies and 1 kitty all between the ages of 5-14. I work from home with a very flexible schedule. I like to also work at coffee shops, by water, so am able to be outside my neighborhood as well! :} My dogs are able to roam around as they wish. I do not like to crate them, and they have their own rooms when I do need to leave. Daily walks and hanging out outside is one of our favorite things to do. Just like us, we all need love in our way so if pets and cuddles are needed that works, or just simply letting out for exercise is their jam, I am here for it!

“Each week Tim walks the dogs, I have one much older dog that benefits from the outing, a very shy dog that needs the walk, and our crazy energetic dog that loves to get out.”
About: I’m a US Marine veteran who brings reliability, structure, and genuine care to every animal I work with. With 8+ years of hands-on experience caring for pets and farm animals, I understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is high-energy and loves long walks or needs a calm and patient approach, I adapt to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I take pride in being dependable, communicative, and attentive to detail. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always come first. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, and I’m comfortable handling active dogs, maintaining routines, and providing structured care while still giving plenty of affection and attention. When your pet is with me, they won’t just be “watched.” They’ll be exercised, cared for, and treated like family. I know how important trust is when leaving your animals with someone else, and I work hard to give owners peace of mind through consistency, updates, and quality care. If you’re looking for someone disciplined, trustworthy, active, and genuinely passionate about animals, I’d be honored to care for your pets.
About: Hi there, my name’s Trinity! I’ve lived with pets my entire life, including cats, dogs, and the gerbils that I researched months for before presenting my findings to my parents (they caved). Before earning my BA in Psychology, I studied animal science at TTU for two years in hopes to become a veterinarian. While my career has changed drastically, I still love spending time with animals and frequently volunteer with local animal shelters. I currently work two part-time jobs, one during weekday afternoons and the other on weekend mornings. My pets get their meals and walks before I leave for work. I am no stranger to a commute as a recent UTSA grad and as someone who is constantly driving all over town for work/volunteer opportunities. In fact, it gives me more time to listen to music in the car! I have an acre of land with a fenced in backyard with plenty of open space for your favorite child to run around. Our community is in a quiet country neighborhood, perfect for low-risk dog-walking.

Friends and family have trusted me for years to care for their pets, and I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family.

About: Hi neighbors! When I’m not in the classroom, I’m hanging out with my 6-year-old Chihuahua and enjoying the outdoors.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and can’t imagine life without them! I’ve had my own dog for 5 years now and there aren’t many days we don’t go on our daily walk. While living abroad, I also helped walk and dog sit for my neighbor whenever she was away. I treat every pup like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of love, care, and attention. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can easily fit in walks, drop-ins, or overnight care throughout the week.

About: I’ve had and cared for animals my entire life. I’ve also worked at pet stores and humane societies. There is no better way to spend your time than being surrounded by animals. I care for animals because being a portable pooper scooper and a human chew toy aren’t considered real jobs. Let me know what your needs are and we’ll work together to make sure that your babies are taken care of when you can’t be home with them. I will always show the utmost respect to your pet and your home. This includes cleaning up after myself and your pet during our time together, removing my shoes before entering your home if you would like, and anything else that will make you comfortable with the arrangement.

“My dogs have a dog door and someone home pretty much all the time. They come and go out the door as they please and Cindy was able to provide a similar routine + her dogs = bonus friends! Cindy is a pleasure to work with. She is well equipped for the job and everything went smoothly. I I knew they were in good hands while I was away!”

“We couldn't be more grateful to Michaella for taking such amazing care of our dog while we were away. From the start, she made us feel completely at ease with her kind and professional approach. It was clear that our pup was not only safe, but also truly loved and cared for like one of her own. Michaella kept us updated with regular messages and the sweetest photos, which really helped us feel connected and reassured. Her communication was excellent, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. Our dog clearly adored her, and we came home to a happy, relaxed pup—which says it all. We highly recommend Michaella to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and responsible caregiver. She's simply the best! 🐾”
“I almost don’t even want to tell anyone how great she was so I can keep her to myself. I felt like my dogs were at home. The dogs had their own bedroom to sleep in and full access to clean backyard at all times. Her dog was an added bonus because my dogs loved to play with him. My dogs weren’t even eager to get in car like they usually are when I pick them up from somewhere. Definitely found our go to dog sitter!”
“Maggs was great! My dog, Henry, stayed with Maggs for over a week. He had the best time! Maggs sent us multiple updates and pictures/videos everyday. Henry is a high energy golden retriever and she kept him exercised and entertained the whole time - even when it was muddy outside! Henry loved playing with her pups as well! We will definitely be booking with Maggs again! Five Star!”
“Hi Sophia and Kevin, Thank you both so much for taking such incredible care of Bombón over the past two days! We were so happy to see how comfortable and happy he was with you. You truly have a special way with dogs, and it means the world to us to know he was in such good hands. He's already missing you, and we're so grateful for the peace of mind you gave us while we were away. We'll definitely be reaching out to book you again the next time we need a sitter. You're the best!”
“Our big standard poodle had a great time on his doggycation with Shay. Her dogs and mine became best buds and played the whole time I think. Haha. Shay's communication was excellent and she kept us updated every day with lots of pictures and messages about how his stay was going. Thanks for taking such good care of him!”
“Had a great first experience boarding with Joshua! Our dogs got along well and she seemed to have a great time. Would definitely recommend to friends and book again!”
“Absolute Best Rover experience. Cassie and her family were a perfect fit for our baby mini golden doodle and 11 yr old pitbull! Looking forward to many more sleepovers. 🙏🏽🙂”
“Amazing family! Great energy they sent me photos and my boy was snuggled in a blanket and they gave him great treats will use tell everyone! I am grateful and my dog is too 🙌🙌🙌🙌 merry Christmas to y’all’s family 🎄🎄🎄❤️🔥”
“Communication from the beginning was top tier and Emma was great with my baby. He seemed so at ease when I picked him up and his body language told me everything I needed to know. Emma is super easy to talk to, extremely sweet and friendly. Thank you for taking in my little guy, we’ll definitely be booking again when needed.”
“This was easily the best boarding experience. I have had the pleasure of having. We did a meet and greet before boarding to ensure that my dogs were a good fit and after we had an assessment, we continued with the boarding the following day. I was pretty nervous because one of my dogs is very high energy, and I worry that some folks may not know how to handle that. Not only what she messaged me updates, but every couple of hours she would also send photos of my dogs on how they were interacting in the yard with other dogs. She checked in the following morning after their first night of sleeping to inform me how things went the night previously as well as a general agenda of the day. I have never felt more secure and leaving my dogs with someone. An absolute blessing and a wonderful person, thank you again! Champ and Max are so excited to see you all again!”
“Highly recommend, went above and beyond to make sure a baby was taken care of. Our puppy is very nervous around new people and does not eat well until he gets to know people. Orlando was in constant communication with us including videos and pics. When we discussed Luca's eating habits he went and got raw meat for him and hand fed him when needed. I truly appreciate this.”
“Angela and Samuel were wonderful with our labradoodle! They took care of her as if she was their own, they kept us updated on her which made us feel great! Thank you guys for being so good to Gracie!”
“Awesome stay for our Koko. Ariel was very friendly and responsive from the get go. She made me feel at ease the whole time Koko was there. It seems like they treated her as part of their family. We will definitely be taking Koko there again!”
“This was my first time having to use a dog sitter and was not disappointed ? Loretta kept me updated with lots of pictures and texts of my old girl. Will definitely book again. :)”
“I had to go out of town last minute and booked the weekend for Wendy to watch my pup at her house and she was fantastic! Wendy was very responsive to my texts and very flexible with timing of pick up and drop off. While I was gone, she sent me lots of pictures and kept me updated. Her daughter loved my pup as well and spent lots of time and attention with him. She has a nice backyard and two sweet beagles. My pup loved it there so much that he tried to run back upstairs when I went to go pick him up. Will definitely book with her again next time I'm in need of a sitter!”
“My pup, Archie, and I had a great meet-an-greet with Dawn. She took the time to let Archie wander through her lovely home and get to know the backyard (Archie's favorite place). We were both looking forward to Archie's scheduled visit. Unfortunately, my husband caught the flue and we had to cancel. Dawn was absolutely charming and understanding! She is so easy to communicate with answers text messages almost immediately. I'm looking forward to rescheduling.”
“ANOTHER fabulous dog-cation! Vinter loves his time with Steve & Randi and Mika! He knows exactly where we are when we pull up to their driveway and he RUNS to their front door ready to play! We always receive LOTS of photos and Vinter is so happy and comfortable and cared for while we are away. Thank you so much!”
“Pamela was fantastic! She took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the day with lots of photos and detailed reports. It was clear my dog was happy and comfortable staying with her. I really appreciated the communication and attention to detail. Highly recommend Pamela and would definitely book with her again!”
