About: I've been a lifelong dog owner and have cared for dogs most of my life. I've frequently dog-sat for friends and family over the years, including feeding, walking, administering medications when needed and providing lots of attention and playtime. I work from home full-time, so your dog will receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship throughout the day. My partner is retired and also home most of the time, so there is almost always someone here with the pets. Because of this, dogs are rarely left alone and get lots of care, playtime, and comfort during their stay. Dogs under 40 lbs. please. We provide a calm, safe, and welcoming environment and follow each dog’s normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. Our home has a fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy time outside. We also have a friendly 5-year-old dog who is low-energy and well socialized. She enjoys the company of other dogs but is also respectful of dogs who prefer their own space. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to us. We introduce dogs slowly, supervise interactions, and treat every dog in our home like part of the family. We are also happy to send photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Debe was phenomenal - communicative, flexible, and dedicated to ensuring my anxious pup felt at home! We’ll absolutely be reaching out to Debe first the next time we travel.”
“Max took wonderful care of my two dogs (one who is a demanding senior) while I was out of town for almost two weeks. He sent pictures and updates everyday. I am so grateful for Max! I know my babies were safe, comfortable, and loved on while I was away.”
“Courtney was amazing with my dog and cat! They stayed with her for 2 weeks and I received updates daily. They both came back home relaxed from their vacation with her!”
“Everything went well! Kelly & Maoli sent progress updates & play pictures daily. She even administered Jimmy’s Flea medication upon request! I believe he had a great time!”
“Anna was great! My dog is really shy and it was great to see all the updates Anna would send so I could see her comfortable and having a good time. Will definitely book again!”
“Stephanie was great with my puppy and my mom’s dog. She helped my brother and me by caring for them. I’m happy I found her. My dogs had a lot of space to play in her yard and had a calm stay. They were relaxed and happy upon return to me.”
“Joshua was great at watching our cat, Lola for 2.5 weeks. We were very nervous, because Lola had never been left with a stranger before, and doesn't have the best attitude sometimes 😉 At the meet and greet, Joshua had his dog Brewster, who was very sweet and calm, but Lola was hissing and swiping every chance she had. Joshua had never watched a cat before but he was confident everything would be fine- and it was. Lola seemed to get very comfortable with Joshua very quickly. He was even able to pick her up, which we weren't expecting. Now that Lola is home, she seems very calm and has adjusted very well. I think a big part of this is because of Joshua's patience and kindness with her. We will definitely go with Joshua again if needed. Thanks so much!”
“I was very nervous to leave Iris with someone I didn’t know for the first time, and Nathanaelle and her fiancé were wonderful. They followed the instructions and guidelines I gave them, took very good care of my girl, and sent me plenty of updates and photos. I will be booking exclusively with them if they are available when I need a sitter. They are genuinely good, caring people.”

“Jesse has been absolutely incredible with Rocco. He went above and beyond in caring for him, and it was clear from the start how much he genuinely cares about the animals he watches. Rocco was comfortable, well cared for, and in great hands the entire time, which gave me real peace of mind. Jesse was also super communicative and flexible, and really helped me out during a hectic stretch when I needed reliable support. I truly appreciate everything he did. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like their own.”
“Roxy was well taken care of in a safe home and got to enjoy a lot of playful interactions with their two dogs. I received pictures and updates which really helped me feel connected to how Roxy was doing. Thanks for taking care of my girl 😊”
“Our first time using Rover.com services. We were initially nervous about leaving our dog Rico with a complete stranger. After a meet and greet with Genevieve, we were instantly at ease! She was warm and friendly, answered all of our questions with great detail, and even asked questions about Rico and any special considerations/needs that I had not considered listing when creating our pet profile. Genevieve was extremely good at communicating during our 7 days away. We received a couple of photos each day, with a detailed write-up of Rico's daily adventures. She administered Rico's many different medications daily, and was sure to let us know what was administered and how much. The HUGE smiles on our pup's face were reassuring while we were away, he looked like he was having fun at summer camp! Drop-off and pick-up were a breeze, we would happily trust Genevieve with our pup any time! We look forward to booking her again!”
“We will absolutely be using Dave again, he was always very prompt in responding to our messages sending us updates and videos to let us know our puppy was having the best time. I highly recommend boarding with Dave.”
“Stefanie & her family have been so great with cotton & he always enjoy his stay. She is the best sitter we have had & will be greatly missed since we are now moving to another State. Thank you for everything Stefanie ❤️”
“Karen took such good care of my babies, Archie and Godfrey. She sent daily updates, took Godfrey for his daily walk and showed them a lot of love and affection. Will definitely rebook with Karen in the future.”

My babies were both lookin good and feelin great when I returned and I’m so thankful to have been partnered with Michael. Will definitely utilize him again.”
“Ignacio took excellent care of my 2 little cats. He communicated through the day and sent a good amount of pictures. I have a shy cat that will hide and is too scared to eat around strangers, but Ignacio did a great job of making sure he ate his medicine twice a day. I didnt ask him to, but he brought in a package thay was delivered while I was away and even brought in the trash container from the street. Thank you so much!!

About: Growing up I only ever had dogs however during a bike ride while I was in high school, the cat distribution system chose me when I came across a 6 month old tuxedo cat I quickly took home and named “Keaton” thus I questioned my parents as to why we never had a cat growing up. I truly love owning and working with cats and have since house sat / cat sat dozens of kittens and cats since becoming a first time cat owner at 18.
“Best Rover we have ever had! Both of our cats, including our skittish one who is pretty scared of people, absolutely loved her! During the time, she was very communicative and took incredible pictures! We would and will definitely rebook! We came back to a clean and good smelling house! Thank you!”
“Allison went above and beyond to make sure my cats were taken care of. :) She even went above and beyond and scooped their litter box for (which wasn’t previously asked of her, as I was only away for one day). She kept me updated and sent pictures during each visit. Thank you, Allison!”
“Sarah has done a great job taking care of my kitty a couple of times. I was very comfortable on my trip knowing my cat was comfortable and being looked after. She put up with my very energetic and chatty cat!”

My wife involved me into fostering for ACS to save euthanasia listed dogs and we have learn a lot. Every dog teaches us something new, and our own pup, Spyder, is a big part of that learning journey. We’d love to welcome your furry family member into our home with the same love and care we give our own! I’m a retired veteran and have been running an Airbnb business for over six years, which keeps me home the majority of the time while my wife is persuing vet school so we’ve created a great system that allows us to balance daily life while still giving lots of love and attention to the pets in our care. Spacious fenced yard where pups can run, play, and even splash around in our dog pool—perfect for water lovers like our boy, Spyder! Spyder is a one-year-old terrier mix who’s full of energy, friendly with all dogs, and always ready for an adventure. Inside the house, playtime is gentler and focused on toys, and I’m very mindful of giving each dog their own space. I also have a reliable system in place to keep Spyder separate if needed, so your pup’s comfort and safety always come first.

About: Hi there! I’m a 35-year-old dog lover with a background in Business Management and over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all kinds. I’m married to my wonderful husband of 14 years, who proudly serves on active duty in the military. Our family is currently stationed in San Antonio, where we share our home with our loyal German Shepherd, Apache. My passion for dogs began long before Apache—over the past 10 years, I’ve devoted much of my time to rescuing dogs, helping them heal, feel safe, and find loving homes. Along the way, I discovered how much I truly enjoy boarding and caring for pups. Creating a comfortable, structured, and loving environment for every dog who stays with us has become something I take great pride in. Whether you need reliable boarding, dedicated care, or simply someone who treats your dog like family, I’m here to help. Your pup’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always come first with me! I work from home and off on weekends! I can Also take my work with me anywhere so if you’re needing me to drop by a few times a day, staying over, or to watch your animals in the comfort of my home I am completely flexible! Providing a safe, trusting, and healthy environment for animals starts with understanding their needs and creating a space where they feel protected and cared for. Safety comes first I make sure the surroundings are secure, free from hazards, and suited to the animal’s size, temperament, and habits. This can mean checking fences, removing toxic plants or objects, and ensuring they have access to clean water and a comfortable resting area. Building trust is just as important! Animals feel more at ease when they know what to expect, so keeping a calm tone, moving gently, and following consistent routines helps them feel secure around you. Taking time to observe their body language and respecting their boundaries shows them that you’re someone they can rely on. Trust grows when an animal feels heard and never forced.

Since then, I've taken care of all types of dogs and cats, big, small, shy, excitable, young, old, etc. I have experience with puppies and kittens as young as 4 weeks, as well as elderly animals well into the double digits. I have done a lot of research on animals out of both passion and love, and personally saved one of my family members puppies when I was petsitting and noticed he was sick. I am not squeamish, and I empathize strongly with the animals I care for. I've never met one that I disliked, or that disliked me. I've always been popular with my friends and family's pets. I take care of any animal as if they were my own. I'm in college and working part time as a server, but my availability is widely open. Most of my classes are online, which gives me plenty of free time. I always make sure to follow instructions, no matter how tedious or specific, because every pet is unique and I believe each one was put there for a very good reason. I don't mind cleaning up around the home, even if it isn't a pet related mess, and I always try to be as unobtrusive and non threatening as possible when first alone with someones pet. I always let them come to me.
About: Hey y'all, my name is Sam. I'm a Navy Veteran of 9 years and have made a personal mission to serve my community as a Dog Walker. My love for dogs started at a young age, and progressed into having a home full of paws. My husband and I have 4 dogs and a cat of our own, and often bring pups in and attempt to find them homes too, I also run my own dog walking business called Tails on Texas Trails LLC. I am a versatile in puppies through seniors, small to large, and yes- I can handle your feline friend as well!! I look forward to meeting you and your fur- babies! I am a recent graduate of Palo Alto College, and currently working on my internship requirements at Arboretum San Antonio part time. My schedule is fairly free and open to serve your needs throughout the day! Watching pets in their home means it is their space and I am a guest. I care for dogs and give them the most love and respect while the parents are away.
About: My family got our first family dog about 2 years ago. She’s about 10 years old and was going to be surrendered to a shelter. I know it’s tough for older dogs to get adopted so my family stepped in to take care of her. Pets are wonderful additions to any family & I’m just happy she’s living a relaxing life with us now. I’m currently very flexible with my time and would love to incorporate more walks into my days. If I'm unsure of any schedules I will always let you know. I enjoy taking her on walks it’s something she always looks forward to and of course making sure she always has access to water. My dog has anxiety especially when it comes to loud noises. Whenever there is a storm she hides and the least I can do is offer myself as a companion to her for the meantime.
“I can’t say enough good things about Odalys! She responded promptly to my same-day dog-walking request and went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. Odalys was extremely thorough, carefully following all instructions and suggestions for walking and feeding our large dog. Our pup can be a bit of a handful at times, especially with occasional pulling, but Odalys handled her with ease and professionalism. It’s clear she knows how to work with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I will absolutely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled dog walker!”
About: I’ve always grown up around dogs and have owned them throughout my life. As a student attending school to major in Veterinary Medicine, I want to get the best experience I can day by day. I currently own a doxie right now and she truly deserves the best. I am currently a sophomore student athlete going into my second semester. I want to be able to stay busy and get some experience with a variety of pets by understanding day by day. Also please understand that I will do my best to keep my availability updated, and as a student athlete please have patience with me. Thank you! I believe that caring for an animal is like caring for a child. The attention and care is a priority, as I do have a doxie myself. She is my whole world and she truly deserves the best along with all other pets!

“Breanna and her husband did a wonderful job sitting for our Dax for the second time! They both were so communicative and sent lots of pictures! Dax got plenty of playtime while with Breanna!”
“Everything went well! Kelly & Maoli sent progress updates & play pictures daily. She even administered Jimmy’s Flea medication upon request! I believe he had a great time!”
“Anna was great! My dog is really shy and it was great to see all the updates Anna would send so I could see her comfortable and having a good time. Will definitely book again!”
“Joshua was great at watching our cat, Lola for 2.5 weeks. We were very nervous, because Lola had never been left with a stranger before, and doesn't have the best attitude sometimes 😉 At the meet and greet, Joshua had his dog Brewster, who was very sweet and calm, but Lola was hissing and swiping every chance she had. Joshua had never watched a cat before but he was confident everything would be fine- and it was. Lola seemed to get very comfortable with Joshua very quickly. He was even able to pick her up, which we weren't expecting. Now that Lola is home, she seems very calm and has adjusted very well. I think a big part of this is because of Joshua's patience and kindness with her. We will definitely go with Joshua again if needed. Thanks so much!”
“I was very nervous to leave Iris with someone I didn’t know for the first time, and Nathanaelle and her fiancé were wonderful. They followed the instructions and guidelines I gave them, took very good care of my girl, and sent me plenty of updates and photos. I will be booking exclusively with them if they are available when I need a sitter. They are genuinely good, caring people.”

“Jesse has been absolutely incredible with Rocco. He went above and beyond in caring for him, and it was clear from the start how much he genuinely cares about the animals he watches. Rocco was comfortable, well cared for, and in great hands the entire time, which gave me real peace of mind. Jesse was also super communicative and flexible, and really helped me out during a hectic stretch when I needed reliable support. I truly appreciate everything he did. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like their own.”
“Roxy was well taken care of in a safe home and got to enjoy a lot of playful interactions with their two dogs. I received pictures and updates which really helped me feel connected to how Roxy was doing. Thanks for taking care of my girl 😊”
“Our first time using Rover.com services. We were initially nervous about leaving our dog Rico with a complete stranger. After a meet and greet with Genevieve, we were instantly at ease! She was warm and friendly, answered all of our questions with great detail, and even asked questions about Rico and any special considerations/needs that I had not considered listing when creating our pet profile. Genevieve was extremely good at communicating during our 7 days away. We received a couple of photos each day, with a detailed write-up of Rico's daily adventures. She administered Rico's many different medications daily, and was sure to let us know what was administered and how much. The HUGE smiles on our pup's face were reassuring while we were away, he looked like he was having fun at summer camp! Drop-off and pick-up were a breeze, we would happily trust Genevieve with our pup any time! We look forward to booking her again!”

“Shelby was absolutely amazing! She did a fantastic job taking care of our two pups and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, which made us feel connected and reassured the entire time. It was so nice seeing how much fun they were having and knowing they were in great hands. It was clear that Shelby truly cared for our dogs and treated them like her own. Our pups looked so happy, comfortable, and loved throughout their stay. We came home to two very happy dogs, and that means everything to us. We’re incredibly grateful for the wonderful care she provided and would absolutely book with Shelby again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, trustworthy, and attentive!”
“Wonderful experience with a seasoned sitter. Mollie was introduced to me by Rover and lives nearby. It was great to work with her and she had a great demeanor with my dog. They had fun and I looked forward to daily updates and photos. I felt my dog was in great hands and she seemed at ease with Mollie and staying in her home.”
“David was awesome! Came & picked up our dogs and droppped em off! Great communication through the whole process! Dogs seem to have had a blast! He even took our dogs to the water park & updated us with pics throughout the whole trip. Definitely will be working with him again!”
