“Karen was wonderful! She took care of our dog on very short notice and pampered her with lots of walks and playing fetch. It was our first time leaving our dog away from home, but Karen sent lots of pictures and videos of our happy girl. She even fed our dog her special diet. We will definitely call Karen next time we need a home away from home for our Molly.”

“Jenny was wonderful with Chilli! She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Chilli looked happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’re very grateful and would be happy to use Jenny again in the future. Thank you so much!”

Thank you Esther!! We will call you the next time we need to board Jewel and Allie. Merry Christmas and best wishes for the new year!”

“Wen was amazing. This was Nilla's first time boarding and she loved Wen and playing with the other pups. She sent pictures and updates during her stay which made my kiddos very happy. Thank you for what you do!”


“David and Jennifer took great care of Clyde! They were easy to schedule and coordinate drop offs and pick ups with. They showed Clyde lots of affection and made him a dog bed for the night we were gone since ours didn't fit in the car.”
“Diana kept me updated on my dog throughout his stay. He came home without any signs of stress from being away. He was well cared for in a family setting with only a small number of dogs. I will definitely use Diana’s service again.”

“Thomas and Shelly took such amazing care of Maddie while we were out of town! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was loved on, played with, and so well cared for the entire time. They went above and beyond making sure she got plenty of attention and fun, and it was obvious how much they genuinely cared about her. We came home to a happy girl, and that means everything. We are so grateful for them and would absolutely trust them again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“This was the second time we've had Rocio take care of Charm and we're so happy about it! Charm is a "senior citizen" and is easily stressed in her old age, but Rocio and her husband are so calm and sweet with her. It's the perfect place for her to be! They also sent me regular photos where we could see that all was well--much appreciated! I highly recommend Rocio!!”

“This was our first experience with boarding and Piggy had a blast! Tamara is extremely attentive, even despite our very relaxed routine, she has a great system, she communicates well and often, and is sweet as can be. She will be our go-to from now on. Thank you, Tamara!”

“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.”


“This was the first time for leaving my 2 Chihuahuas puppies. I picked Charlie and Madeleine because of their great reviews and I must add another. The pictures and videos Madeleine sent of my boys helped me relax and enjoy my vacation. I could see my babies were being well taken care of and being loved. I would never hesitate to leave my dogs with Charlie and Madeleine, they are wonderful! Thank you both!”

“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.”

About: I've owned to dogs in the spanned of 12 years. Both 100 plus pounds, I've also worked with medium size breeds and toy breeds. I also own exotic and cats. I have worked in the retail industry catering towards animals and have volunteered sitting for farm animals. I'm at the moment working towards a degree in veterinary medicine full time. I do not work so this would be my main source of income. Since I am fully dedicating previously my time to school. Close monitoring and calm approach to any situation or environment are essential when it comes to the care of animals in my possession. Patience and building a bond is also very important and key to building a long lasting relationship with my animals.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years & nothing brings me more joy! I treat my pets like they’re my kids. I dog sit all the time for friends & family & always have a great time. I’ve had my own dog, Armani, since he was a few weeks old & he is the best dog. Bean is our smaller dog who we rescued off the streets of San Antonio. She is the light of my life! They love having other dogs over at our house to play. We have a nice big backyard for them to run around and get their zoomies out! My husband and I work full time remotely so we are always home to look after your pets! We can guarantee your fur baby lots of cuddles, running around, play time & potty breaks! We own our home and live in a safe neighborhood. We have a large, fenced in yard so lots of room for activities! Our two dogs love play dates. They can play inside or outside, we have lots of toys. I also have a crates if necessary and both my dogs are crate trained.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for animals of all shapes, sizes, types and breeds. Whether your pup needs a walk, some playtime, or loving care while you’re away, I’m here to help! I provide reliable, caring, and personalized attention to make sure your furry friend feel and are safe and happy. Pet Owner Pet & WildLife Rescuer Volunteer Foster Addition references included in photos. I Love All “My” Doggies 🐶 & Kitties 🐱!! 🥰 I also have experience with bunnies, birds, aquatics, and reptiles. I have a flexible schedule and am home often with the exception of errands, appointments or other Rover (and non~Rover side jobs), throughout the day and week. Any exceptions to my availability is regularly updated on my Rover calendar. House/pet sitting; I am available to discuss this option, but as a pet parent, can be challenging to accept but I definitely will work with you on the details, to make sure everybody’s taken care of in a timely manner, ie potty breaks. I have done pet care in my home along with overnight stays at client’s homes. I have also done dog/puppy and kitten fostering for local area shelters since 2019, as well as on my own, rescuing countless pets and reuniting lost pets with their owners, for decades. I treat all animals the same way I would want mine treated. Your beloved pet becomes THE VIPet, in my home. My pets are fully vaccinated and on monthly flea and tick preventative. I am relatively new to Rover as a pet care provider. True to my nature and love for animals I fall in love and care for each, and every one, I care for in and outside of my home. For dog walking services: Summertime: I prefer before 11 AM or after 7 PM, to avoid excessive overheating of your pet and the ground and when there is normally shade throughout the typical neighborhood in which they can be walked.
“I would give them 10 stars if I could!! Cecilia and her hubby took care of my girl like family. Cecilia sent tons of pics throughout the day, and really put me at ease. Penny made some besties today and will definitely be back. Thank you so much!”


“We are full time RVers and wanted to board our dogs while we explored San Antonio for the day. Tambre provided a loving home environment and I was able to enjoy my day knowing my pups were in good care. I received pics on how they were doing. Recommend if you are out of towners looking for a home environment.”


“Jennafer was absolutely amazing with my dog, Gary! He had such a great time playing with her dog Duke, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. She even gave Gary a bath, which was such a thoughtful extra touch. I really appreciated how caring, reliable, and accommodating she was, especially on short notice. I highly recommend Jennafer — 10/10 whether you need a quick last-minute sitter or regular Monday through Friday care. Gary came home happy, clean, and well cared for!”

“Lorena is a gem! Super a fun personality! We were a bit nervous to leave our dog, but upon meeting Lorena, our minds were put at ease. She is sweet, caring, and most importantly, passionate! Your dog will go on so many walks with her! Highly recommend.”

About: Hi! My name is Francy, and I have over 16 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. From small lap dogs to large, active pups, I’m comfortable and confident providing safe, loving care tailored to each dog’s needs. I also have experience caring for dogs with special needs, including administering medications and supporting diabetic pets. Your dog’s health, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities.

Please feel free to contact me anytime—I’d love to care for your furry family member! Pet care is the central part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the dogs in my care to make sure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. Each day includes multiple walks (3–4 times daily or as needed), feeding based on their usual schedule, playtime in my large backyard, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I am dedicated to this fulltime, which allows me to closely monitor their behavior and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I also make time to provide updates to pet parents with photos and notes at least twice a day. If a dog requires medication or has special needs, I carefully follow their routine and instructions. My weekly routine is very flexible, so I can adapt to each dog’s specific needs and energy level. Pet care is not just something I fit in—it’s a priority in my everyday life. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment whether pets are in my home. Dogs are treated like part of the family. I follow their regular routine for feeding, potty breaks, and sleep to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. Daily walks, plenty of playtime in my secure backyard, and lots of attention throughout the day. I always supervise interactions and create a calm environment where each dog feels safe.
About: I have always loved caring for other dogs when growing up. My pup is the same way. We both love visitors and would love to have your fur baby stay with us I work from home Full time. My routine with my own fur baby is feeding twice a day and potty breaks 3 times a day. We also do frequent trips to the dog park onsite. My Penny girl is one of the most social dogs I’ve ever had.

“Sam was very attentive and helped out greatly when we requested small details for the dogs. Definitely will be using him in the future and highly recommend him.”

I think her qualifications are more than adequate for the responsibility she carries in walking our precious pets.”

About: I have been pet sitting for about five years now and have experience with many different sizes and breeds of animals! I raised a lamb, goat, and a guide dog in high school and personally, I have owned a Cavachon, and a Labrador. I used to work at a dog daycare for about a year and I volunteered with Animal Defense League! Currently I am on summer break and so I have full availability! In the fall, I will only go to school on Mondays and Wednesdays. I never take my eyes off of a pet, especially if we are outside. I always make sure that they are next to me when passing someone else or another pet on a walk and redirect them is needed. I always greet animals I do not know calmly and gently, I never want to overstimulate them.
“Andrea is the best. She’s polite and our dogs love her! Our youngest dog Kate saw Andrea on a walk recently and got SO excited to see her even from a distance. That is testament enough. I’d give six stars if I could.”

I also keep owners updated and make it a priority to be reliable, respectful of their home, and on time for every visit.
About: Reliable, patient pet sitter experienced with puppies and senior dogs. Skilled in routines, positive reinforcement, exercise, and attentive care, ensuring pets feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits well into my routine as a student-athlete on summer break with lots of free time during the day. I’m especially available in the evenings and during the day and would love to drop by to let pets out, take them on walks, or provide overnight care and companionship. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in both my home and my clients’ homes by following all care instructions closely. I maintain clean, calm environments, secure doors and leashes, and use positive reinforcement. I respect each pet’s routine, monitor behavior and well being, and provide regular updates to owners to ensure peace of mind.
About: I’ve cared for my dog for 5 years now and my cat for 11 years. My neighbors and family always call on me to watch their pets when they are out of town including stopping by and house sitting when needed. I have always loved all furry friends and even wanted to be a vet when I was little! I am a full time college student so in the summers I need something to fill my free time! I love staying active and doing something productive in my days and what is better than caring for some furry friends! In my home we have a fenced in backyard with locks on the gates. When taking my dog out we always have a leash on with a firm grip. This will apply to all the clients I see as their dogs care and safety is the number one priority. All pets will have my full attention at all times.

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a child. We always had a family dog and as I got older family friends would hire me to pet sit and watch their dogs, big and small. Now, I have a rescue pup of my own and love every minute I spend with her. She’s a very reactive dog, so I have experience dealing with reactivity, and we work on it daily. I will treat your dog as my own and give them the best care. I look forward to meeting your pup and having the best time! I’m employed full time, so I’ll mostly be available for evening and weekend play times! We can go for walks or spend some time at the park! I’m happy to do whatever is the normal for your pup so their routine is not disrupted. We can play in your yard, go for a walk, or snuggle on the couch, whichever they prefer.

“Will could not have been better! We really appreciated the pictures and updates in the report cards. Will really helped us out. I would highly recommend Will for anyone in need of a good friend for your pup!”
