“Jackie and Jorge watched Millie for five days! As soon as I dropped off our dog, Millie, I knew she was in good hands! They kept us updated on how Millie was doing and also sent us pictures of her! 10/10, will book again!”

“Thank you, Kelly, for taking care of my pup and sending me pics and updates each day. Moneypenny loves staying with you, exploring the big space at your ranch, and she always comes back home tired but very happy. See you next time!”

“Great experience with them always! I was so shocked to see my dog wagging her tail and practically jumping out of the car when she sees them. It lets me know that she’s being treated with so much love 💗”

“Oh my goodness, my big guy is a drama llama baby, and they did so much to make him comfortable and happy. I am so very grateful to have found Norma”

“We are beyond grateful to this amazing couple for taking such wonderful care of our puppy, Mocha! From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in loving hands. Jeanelly was incredibly sweet and kept us updated the entire time, sharing helpful details about Mocha’s behavior, playtime, and even the little things that made her day. It’s clear she truly cared and treated Mocha like part of her own family. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would trust them again in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend!”

“My dog has such a great time. I think we have had 4 visits. Kristin sends me a couple of updates throughout the day and with photos sometimes videos playing with other dogs, neighborhood walks, she is eating and sleeping well. Comforting to know. Pick up and drop off hours are easy to coordinate.”

“Breanna and her family were amazing and so accommodating! They helped me with boarding my baby Charlie when I had an emergency and were very responsive. I was nervous being that me or Charlie had never met them before, but they were so kind and made me feel so comfortable leaving her there with their family and dogs. They sent lots of pictures and videos and Charlie came home happy :) so grateful for them!”

“My first time to board my Pom not have been more pleasant! They are very warm and welcoming and my baby felt right at home. They will definitely be my go to puppy sitters in the future. Peace of mind is priceless”

“Skylar did an amazing job watching our dogs and I felt comfortable leaving them in her care. She sent daily updates with pictures and was quick to reply at all times, I would for sure be booking with her again in the future.”

“Deanna is fantastic! She is genuine and reliable and just a really great person. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and will absolutely be having her stay with nova again.”

“I am hesitant to be too positive because everyone will run to Lauren!!! She took fabulous care of our little Rocky and kept us updated with pics and video. More important though, she genuinely cares for our little guy; you can’t fake caring!!! Rocky will be spending a lot of time with Lauren?????”

“Amazing experience with Karen. My two babies were extremely happy when I picked them up showing they were liking where they were staying. She updated me throughout their stay with pictures and videos and how they’re doing. Extremely happy with her. We will be back soon 🤗🤗”

“Michael and Alice are great! I love the videos they send - I can tell my dog is having a great time and getting lots of good play time in with other dogs. Definitely recommend!”

“Evgeniya, was the perfect host for my fur baby Sammie. She is very nurturing and sweet. She took lots of pictures and always kept me updated. Sammie felt comfortable with her and her home. It is great to feel your baby is being well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Evgeniya.”

“My pups Bella and Pixie enjoyed their stay with Max. He was so polite and professional. I received soooo many updates and pictures which put me at ease. Will definitely rebook I’m the future. Thank you!!”


“This was Max's 2nd stay with Sue. He always seems happy when we pick him up. I think he enjoys playing with the other dogs. It's nice not to worry about my little baby when we are gone on a vacation. ”


“Matt was amazing my dog loves him and always comes home calm. He treats him just like his own dog and that's why I will always try to book with him when he is available.”

“Veronica was communicative and had excellent judgment on how to set the cats up as she was only dropping in every couple of days. She made sure the cats were inside prior to fireworks as requested and even took care of the gifts the little one brought in to express that she missed her boy.”

“Caryn went above and beyond in her care for our cats, including an emergency late-night visit to free our cats from the bathroom in which they had trapped themselves. We would recommend her to anyone in need of reliable pet care!”

“My cat loves Marla, and I love that Marla is very attentive and on top of things. I have to travel a lot these days due to family circumstances, so this is a blessing. It's great to come home to find my cat is not desperate or distressed the way she has sometimes been when she had other sitters. She's a really social and smart/active cat who needs more than the bare minimum food and water that might work for some other cats. I'm thankful to have found someone who gives her the mental stimulation and affection she needs.”

“Lauren has been great with us and our cats, she ´s very caring and sensitive in her job, and also she s very careful at home, she has been with us for a long time. We recommend her!!! no doubt!”


“He did an amazing job pet sitting my cat! I got daily updates and pictures so I could see he was being loved and cared for. He followed all the instructions perfectly and gave us the peace of mind we needed on our vacation! Would recommend Patrick to anyone who needed someone to pet sit their cat!”


“Jackson took exceptional care of my dogs while I was away, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very beginning, he treated them with genuine love and kindness. It was obvious that my dogs felt comfortable and happy around him - they absolutely loved him. He carefully followed every instruction I left, paid attention to the little details, and was always punctual and dependable. Knowing my dogs were in such caring and responsible hands gave me complete peace of mind throughout the trip. If you’re looking for someone who truly loves animals and takes their responsibility seriously, I wholeheartedly recommend Jackson. I am incredibly thankful for everything he did, and I would trust him with my dogs again without hesitation. Thank you, Jackson, for caring for my furry family members as if they were your own!”


“Eric is definitely my No.1 sitter choice! He was caring and followed all the instructions we left for him. He communicated throughout his visits. I would highly recommend Eric to watch your fur buddies!!!!”


“Faith took amazing care of my dogs while I was away! I had her pop in twice a day to let the dogs out and feed them, and she was punctual for every visit. The dogs were happy in every photo that she sent to me. Overall would definitely rebook with Faith when I go out of town again.”

“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.”


“Reily watched my two kitties for the weekend and did an amazing job! She followed all instructions, sent lots of updates and pictures, kept my home extremely clean. Will be using her again 😊🐈”


“Rylee was amazing she gave all the cuddles to my two kitties and always sent photos which was greatly appreciated. She somehow managed to keep my two porch flowers alive even though they are the most temperamental things ever! 10/10 recommended.”

“This was my second time leaving my puppy with [Sitter’s Name] and their wonderful family, and once again, they were amazing! Their home is warm and welcoming, and their daughters are so sweet with my pup. I got regular updates with pictures and felt completely at ease knowing she was in such caring hands. Highly recommend!”

“Apollo & Frankie enjoyed a funday with Abel & Alisa along with their furry babies. They are well taken care of with lots of running around in the yard & playing puzzles, watching tv, eating snacks. This was there 2nd visit & definitely would schedule another fun day in the near future. Thanks to both of them.”

“Sabrina did a great job taking care of Prince. Everything went smoothly, and my dog was well looked after and comfortable. Communication was clear, and I appreciated knowing my dog was in good hands. I’d definitely be happy to use her again and would recommend Sabrina to others!”

“Fernando was amazing. I had my regular sitter cancel last min for a very early appt I need for my two boys. Fernando was able to accommodate on short notice for a very early sit time. He took good care of my guys and sent periodic pictures of them having a blast. 10/10 would use him again.”

“Erika was amazing!!!! She kept me updated through out the day and accommodated my work hours. I will definitely be going to her from now! If you are thinking of booking with her do it! Your furry friend will receive great care!”

About: Hi! I’m Rodrigo. More than just a dog sitter/walker, I work professionally with dogs every day. As a dog parent of 10 years and a professional dog trainer who has worked with countless dogs of all sizes and personalities, I am not just a dog lover but someone you can feel at ease to trust with your four-legged family member. 🙂 Puppies, seniors, working dogs, reactive dogs, and so on. I’ve handled them all. Feel free to shoot a message with any questions or concerns and I look forward to meeting your dog! (: Currently have an open a flexible and open schedule as working with dogs is my full time focus. Please feel free to message me for scheduling questions (: I currently live in an apartment so I only accept about two or three boarding dogs at a time. Usually boarding dogs are crated within the home for safety. All training or fun will be had outside so the home if for resting and relaxing during the hotter times of the day.
“Hector was phenomenal in caring for our very large baby, who gets anxious when first departing from us. She was wonderfully cared for and it was incredibly easy to get in and out for drop off and pick up.”

About: Hi! I’m Fernanda. I care for a maximum of two dogs per day to give each one my full attention and love. I spend 24 hours a day with them (yes, 24!) and take them to different parks so they can explore, sniff around, and have fun. Their walk schedule is pretty active: 5am, 10pm, 3pm, 7pm, and 11:30pm — because there's never a dull moment here! I also send two photos and one video daily, so you can feel at ease seeing how happy and comfortable your pup is. Is your dog shy or needs their own space? No problem! I can keep them separated from my own dogs. If they have trouble sleeping alone, I’ll stay close so they feel safe. They’re welcome on the couch, on the bed, and of course, they’ll receive all the love, patience, and cuddles they need to feel at home. Important: I speak only Spanish, but my husband speaks both Spanish and English — so if you need to communicate in English, we’ve got you covered! I provide 24/7 care for your dog, with daily walks to parks, regular updates, and lots of love and attention in a safe, homely environment. In my home, your dog will enjoy a safe, calm environment with plenty of space to play. I provide 24/7 supervision, daily walks, and constant updates.
“The pups always have such an amazing time at Lauren’s! They love playing with the kiddos and pups. She gave me updates on them throughout the day which I was so thankful For. Thank you so much!”


“Snowflake was well taken care of for the day while we got to explore the not so dog friendly parts of San Antonio. Breanna was very responsive, friendly, and flexible making it a great experience for us out of towners!”

About: For over 20 years, I’ve owned and cared for several types of animals. I provide a luxury service for your pets, often cleaning and going above & beyond for you and your furry family. With patience and love, I’m your go-to gal for your pet care needs! I currently am stepping away from corporate America to pursue higher education. Although school is full-time, its online and I have a ton of flexibility. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats, with a fenced back yard. My neighbors do not own dogs, so your pups and mine can roam out back safely and freely!

“Andres was awesome and very polite! Excellent communication with both Ryan and Andres, showed up right on time and was great with my very energetic Husky and was able to tire him out enough for him to relax in his kennel for a couple of hrs until I returned home. He took the cutest pictures of him too while on their walk, which I appreciate so much. 🥹 I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with him and hoping to be able to book w him again!”

“Hector treats each dog as his own while walking them. I had someone's loose dog attack my own and Hector protected my fur baby as if he were his own. He loves and protects him wholly each time Hector takes him out. Look no further - there is no better dog walker available in the city right now.”

About: Hi y’all! I’m Jackson, and I am a huge animal lover. I’ve lived with at least 2 dogs my entire life, and I now have 3 dogs waiting for me back home in Houston. My animals received many, many walks while under my care. I’ve dog sat for countless neighbors, family friends, and strangers, and I’m no stranger to scoopin’ some poop. My oldest pooch was 18 years old, and I’m more than aware of the stubbornness that age brings along. I’ve raised many puppies too, so I’m familiar with the nuance of tender yet firm care. I’d love to get to know and provide top-notch care for your animals, if you’d let me! I am a full time student at UTSA. I have class on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, so Tuesdays, Thursdays, and weekends are more than often available. I try to visit home once a month to spend time with my family, including my dogs, so I’d love to fill this canine void I experience here in San Antonio. I have been the owner and the stranger to untrusting dogs, so I’ve gathered the best way to approach these kind of animals from both sides. I have no issue with getting on their level, exercising patience, or crating. I pick up on mannerisms and comfort levels easily, and I can adapt to the needs of each animal efficiently.
“Olivia is fantastic with our pups! Very easy to work with and was so sweet with our puppy who gets nervous with new people. Will certainly be using her in the future!”


About: I've spent several years caring for both dogs and cats through pet ownership and pet sitting, and I truly love getting to know each animal's unique personality. I've owned dogs of all sizes—from a corgi to a Saint Bernard—so I'm comfortable with pets of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I have an extensive history of pet sitting for a variety of clients while in high school and in college, and for the past several months, I've also been pet sitting for physicians in the San Antonio Medical Center, and I've really enjoyed helping give them peace of mind while they're away! I'm happy to help with just about any pet-sitting need, whether that's drop-in visits, daycare, overnight stays, or house sitting. I'm also open to caring for all kinds of animals, not just dogs and cats! My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away, and to keep you updated so you know they're in good hands. I can't wait to meet you and your pets and give them the same love and attention I'd give my own! I am currently a medical student, but have a pretty light course load this semester! I am typically in class some days of the week from 8am-12pm but am pretty available otherwise! I have no problem stopping by before and after my classes if needed on the days that I am in class (typically 3/7 days of the week). I am very flexible with whatever the rules/ preferences for each pet may be within their house! I understand that each family has different routines with their pets and have no problem doing my best to accommodate them! I also prefer to keep in frequent contact with the owners I have sat for in the past with texts and photos to send updates!
“My bullmastiff, Gus, loves Tim!! I had to start going back into the office 3 days a week, and I was concerned Gus being alone and in his crate for so long. Tim started walking him on those days and I can see a huge I’ increase in Gus’ happiness. Someone rang the doorbell the other day and Gus got so excited!! Normally he ignores the doorbell. But he was looking for Tim. This makes me so happy to see Gus so happy. Thanks Tim for doing such a great job!!”

“Wonderful! Nardo instantly took to her and they played nonstop! Ella is super sweet and professional I definitely recommend and will call on again and again! :)”

“I had the pleasure of hiring Alexandria from Rover to take care of our dog, Tomo, and I couldn't be happier with her services. Alexandria is a true professional who genuinely cares about the well-being of our furry friend. She goes above and beyond to ensure Tomo gets the exercise and attention he needs. Her reliability and dedication are truly commendable. We trust her completely and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dog walker. Five stars all the way!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. I would walk families dogs and care for their pets! Cats are included. I try to spend time outside every day and walking your dog would be the perfect addition to my daily life. I work a flexible job so house sitting will fit in well! I will always be mindful to follow house guidelines and pet guidelines. I will use discernment in situations if needed and make sure that your pet is getting the love they need!
About: I grew up with all types of different pets in the household from dogs to guinea pigs to birds and even shrimp! So, naturally, I came to love for all animals! Loving them means to also care for them, so I had to provide care for each animal making sure they were properly fed, cleaned, and had a safe environment to sleep. What you can expect from me: * Quick responses * Reliable scheduling * Updates/photos during visits * Respect for your home and routine I currently work part time and go to school full time, but I still have plenty of time to dedicate to the loved animals of San Antonio. I promise to provide the absolute best care to your pets and to your homes. I will make sure your pets are kept safe and properly cared for. I also walk my dogs all the time, so I know proper handling and care when walking a dog.
“Eric was quick to reply and genuinely cared about making my dog’s day. He took my Dalmatian on a nice long walk and also played with him in the backyard on both days I booked. Eric was great about keeping me in the loop and making me feel included while I was away, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. He’s an awesome person, clearly loves what he does, and I’ll absolutely be rebooking with Eric.”

“Allison did amazing! She was so great walking Fenway and with excellent communication. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone who needed some trustworthy pet care:)”
