“Vimonluck was such a breathe of fresh air and gave me so much peace of mind when watching Hershey! She provided updates, pictures, and videos. Hershey was living her best life playing my hide and seek with Vimonluck’s dog Miso! I’d definitely recommend and rebook with Vimonluck on future occasions. Thank you so much!”
“Amazing communication!!! Toby was so happy being with Alexia, she had other pups for him to play with too and he LOVED that!!! Her son also helped take care of him, he took him on walks and everything!! Nothing but great care from the whole family, I highly recommend🥰”
“This was my first time using a doggy sitter service for my Doxie baby! I don’t know who was more nervous- me or Honey, but I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my baby. She kept me updated regularly, even though I didn’t even have to ask. She asked questions., but most of all she just loved her! She took her everywhere. She even got her toy when apparently my dog grabbed it out of her hand at the store. 😂 ( I gave her permission to take her wherever she went because she loves car rides! ❤️) ; the pictures showed just how happy my baby was in her home. If you need someone to watch your pup, I highly recommend her!”
“Amanda was very patient with my super nervous dog since he hadn’t been away from home in a while. She left me at ease by sending me pics and providing updates and I will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you Amanda.”
“Lacy was very responsive and dependably. I made my reservation months in advance and she held the spots for my pups. We were traveling from 3 hours away. Thank you for bringing trustworthy.”
“Scout had a great time again with Ian and his family. He will be our go to for sure anytime we need a sitter for Scout! He sends multiple updates throughout the day with photos and videos and took Scout to the dog park multiple times throughout his stay! Highly recommend!”
“Such a blessing to be able to leave your pet with someone like Ms. Nakeya and her family! I am overjoyed with the experience and the love she showed my boy. He’s never stayed with anyone and I’d be more than happy to bring him back when in need. Thank you soooo much 🖤”
“Richard and Stephanie took such great care of our babies! They were loving, reliable, and made us feel at ease. We’d definitely have them watch our pups again!”
“I had such a wonderful experience with this family as first-time dog sitters for my fur baby, Mylo! 🐾❤️ From the very beginning, I had a good feeling about leaving him in their care, and they did not disappoint. I’m grateful to have found a family that cared for Mylo so well\. I would definitely recommend them and will happily use them again. The photos that were sent was proof that my baby boy w havinga good time.”
“Amanda is wonderful. This is our second booking with her. She makes our dog feel right at home. She is very accommodating and she frequently updates you on how the dogs are doing. She is the best. Definitely recommend.”
“Tabitha did a wonderful job boarding my dog, Bobo and he loved her. She was kind and caring. She also allowed him to wonder freely around the house as he is house trained. I will be taking Bobo back to her when I need the service.”
“Kylie was great. She gave frequent updates and sent pics of Lucy. When we picked Lucy up she looked healthy and happy and seemed to love Kylie's dog, Ranger. It was wonderful knowing our dog was in good hands while we were away on vacation. You can tell Kylie loves dogs!!!”
“We had a great experience leaving our dog Ella with Lisa. Lisa sent lots of pictures and kept us updated on how Ella was doing. I could tell that Ella was very well taken care of and that is such a relief when you can't take your pet with you everywhere you go! I wouldn't hesitate booking with Lisa again.”
“As always 5 stars and beyond. Diana and her family never disappoint and my Roscoe loves visiting. He always is ready to visit when the time comes. You’re missing out if you haven’t had a chance to use their services.”
“Lisa was so nice, welcoming and flexible. Not just her but her hubby and 3 dogs plus cat. I had an international trip that was planned and my original dog-sitter had a family emergency and had to cancel. Lisa stepped in last minute w/no issues. She opened her home for a meet/greet w/her dogs and hubby. I was allowed to look around and Luna was allowed to sniff and feel her way both inside and outside. She has a big yard for much olay time and open layout. My Punta Cana trip was then extended by 4 days due to weather and Lisa did not blink an eye on keeping Luna for an additional 4 days. Not only that but our flight then was delayed 4 additional times on our updated flight and once again, she was very nice and understanding. For myself, I was frustrated and didn't want her to feel unpleasant about it but she gave me the opposite feeling. Please book her. She's a definite recommendation. Her and her family (all) are very welcoming and dog friendly. She welcomed Luna back and I'm glad for that. Luna made a friend with her little one Teddy.”
“Great experience! We were able to enjoy our trip without worrying about our dog. They sent updates and videos throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Overall best experience for Sasha, my super hyper, but loveable chocolate lab. Sasha was taken good care of. I got daily updates with pictures and videos. I will use again and again and recommend any family to use Teena and her sweet family.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Alma 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 Alma.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Alma 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.
