“Vicki is great!! My cat was spayed a couple weeks before she stayed with Vicki and was having some GI issues. I felt nervous about finding a someone that would be willing to take her with the vomiting and diarrhea but Vicki was more than happy to help. She was very watchful of Rosie’s progress and made appropriate suggestions about her medications. We needed to leave her with Vicki for an extra night and Vicki was accommodating about that as well. I will DEFINITELY be working with Vicki again and suggest you all stop reading this review and sign your pets up as well! Thank you again Vicki!!”
“Lily is wonderful! If you want someone who constantly keeps you updated with what your furbaby is doing throughout the day, she’s your girl! Communication is great. Our pup came home happy and tired from playing with Lily’s dogs. Will definitely use Lily again.”
“Nikki was great with my dog, Asher! She was really attentive to his medical needs and made sure he was well taken care of the whole time. Her communication was also really good. She kept me updated and was easy to reach, which I really appreciated. She even sent me videos of some of his stay with her! (Normally I just get pics but she went ABOVE AND BEYOND) Overall it was such a smooth experience and I felt comfortable knowing Asher was in good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Tiffany is the best! She’s so kind and I knew from the moment we first met at our meet and greet she and her sweet family would be the right fit for Teddy especially since Teddy and their dog, Branston hit it off so well. I’m so grateful for the daily updates with pictures and videos. It helped us relax knowing he was having such a great time. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tiffany as a pet sitter, she’s truly a gem and I’m so grateful to have found her on Rover. We’re looking forward to Teddy’s next stay!”
“Julian was awesome for our two dogs, Cash and Louis! He took extra care to get to know them both, their needs and special requests. This was especially true for Louis who is a puppy. Julian was extremely proactive. He provided multiple updates every single day with pictures and videos. At no point did I have to wonder how the dogs were doing. I would highly recommend Julian if you are looking for someone highly dependable for your doggies!”
“Brandy was great, she understood the unique needs and issues with Nike (an older dog with challenges) and wasn't overwhelmed by his oddities. She was able to work him into their household just fine and found ways to work his challenges into their daily schedule. We felt quite secure leaving him with her for our 10 day trip. He was very well cared for and he even got the treat of sleeping with her, which he doesn't get at home usually. Also, she has a doggy door which he is used to using so that is helpful to prevent an accident. Ivy and Lola were great house mates and it all went very well. We would definitely recommend Brandy and will use her again if the need arises. Thanks a bunch Brandy!!”
“Diana and her husband have done a great job taking care of our dogs. They are very trustworthy. The only issue is there space is small but they walk the dogs plenty so it is not really an issue. Will use them again for sure.”
“Deanna takes such care with our older dog Stella. She’s responsive and provides lots of updates during stays. Stella loves her and is always happy to go to Deanna’s.”
“Rikki was very communicative and very prompt replying back. She sent photos and made our dog Jax feel at home. Jax sometimes has separation anxiety and not comfortable at new places. He adjusted well and had a great stay. We will use Rikki again on our next trip!”
“Lauren was a wonderful sitter for our dog. She sent regular updates and welcomed him into her home like one of her own. We will be repeat customers for sure!”
“When I tell you I can't thank sweet Jada enough for all the love and attention she gave my Charlie. She kept me updated with pictures and communication. Thank you again Jada we will be seeing you again soon.”
“Bailey is always well taken care of at Kristina’s. I receive daily updates and pictures and he interacts well with their other pets. I’ll be using their service in the future.”
“We had an amazing experience with Jasbleidy. From the moment we dropped off our two dogs, we knew they were in great hands. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious they received plenty of love, attention, and excellent care. We truly appreciated the sitter’s kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our fur babies!”
“Stephanie was the best with our 2 (sometimes needy) boys. She sent us updates and photos throughout the day and the photos were great and hilarious. It brought us comfort to know that not only were our boys were being cared for, but they were also having a great time!”
“Jennifer has a lovely home and such a warm, calming presence. She also has a well-behaved dog who got along wonderfully with my two. She cared for my treasures, Max and Chloe, for 10-days while I was away, and I truly believe she did an excellent job. One of my dogs was being treated for a urinary tract infection, while the other takes medication for arthritis. Jennifer graciously welcomed them both and administered their medications exactly as instructed. Throughout their stay, she sent photos and progress updates, which greatly eased my anxiety about leaving them with someone new, especially for such a prolonged period. When I arrived to pick them up, Jennifer had all of their belongings neatly packed and ready to go. She had even washed their tandem leash and brushed both dogs! Max and Chloe were healthy, happy, and clearly well cared for. It was clear that they had received plenty of attention and loving care during their stay. I would not hesitate to use Jennifer again whenever overnight accommodations are needed. Thank you, Jennifer, for taking such wonderful care of Max and Chloe!”
“Charlie LOVED his time there. He came home like he never left. I missed him, but knowing he was getting plenty of love, care, playtime and relaxation helped a lot. Liron was great with communicating, answering questions and understanding. I have a ton of pictures thanks to her proactive communication and kindness. I am so glad Charlie also got to socialize with other well behaved dogs while he was there. Honestly this place is a dogs’ paradise. He will definitely be back. 😌☺️”
“This was my second time booking with Marisa, and once again, she went above and beyond in taking care of my dog. She’s incredibly attentive, sent regular updates with photos, and made sure I felt at ease the entire time. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

While away on vacation we rested easy knowing that our senior dog was well cared for by Mixie. She ensured that his dietary and medication needs were met and updated us regularly. We unexpectedly had to extend Mao-Mao's stay for a day and appreciate that Mixie accommodated our late request.
I would like to say that we were very happy we found Julian. He is an amazing young man, very responsible, and Bumpy fit right in. He has an amazing family, and I was so fortunate to know that my baby is taking care off. He kept me posted every day with texts and pictures and videos. We will be using Julian for our future stays. Bumpy had a mini vacay as well. Thank you Julian, we appreciate you.
Lily was absolutely amazing! We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. She kept us updated throughout our dog’s stay, regularly sending us pictures and letting us know how he was doing. We especially appreciated that she kept us in the loop whenever he met new dogs during his stay. She also sent us pictures from his walks, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Her yard was perfect for him to run around, play, and burn off some energy. It was clear that Lily genuinely cared about making sure he was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. We felt completely at ease knowing he was with her. We will 100% be booking with Lily again the next time we’re out of town. Highly recommend her! 🐶❤️
I can’t say enough good things about our Estefania! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in such loving and capable hands while I was away. Communication was excellent, I received regular updates, and it was clear that my dog was treated like family. Finding someone you can completely trust with your pet is priceless, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their furry family member!
Mariam took such great care of Margo while we were out on a trip. She sent pictures and videos to make sure we were updated the whole time! Margo came back healthy and happy and even with a new carrot toy from Mariam. We are sending Margo back this next weekend! Very thankful for a sitter here now that we moved.
Oh I can’t say enough about how much My pup loved Roxana!! She is very good with communication and pictures; she is just above and beyond wonderful! I would definitely book with her again soon , my dog loved her I could see it in his smile ! If you’re looking for a great sitter she’s perfect! 😇💛
Nicole was absolutely AMAZING with our babies, Ren and Enzo. She sent lots of updates and pictures throughout our pups stay at her place. Ren warmed up to Nicole so quickly and looked so cozy in every single picture. Although our boy Enzo had a bit of anxiety, Nicole did so amazing at getting him to settle in and making him as comfortable as possible. I HIGHLY recommend Nicole as your pet sitter. I was finally able to fully enjoy my trip knowing that my babies were well taken care of. Thank you x100000 Nicole!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Alief can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Alief home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Alief.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alief. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Alief sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in TX ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
