“Valor had a wonderful stay! Maria sent lots of pictures and kept in touch throughout, which gave me peace of mind. Valor came home happy and healthy, and I’m grateful for the care she gave him. I’d happily book with her again!”
“Kimberly was great to work with and took good care of my dog! She sent pictures of him throughout his stay and was easy to communicate with. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Allyzandria was so helpful and courteous! I would gladly board any dog with her. I picked up a happy pup when I came for Baby and her bed & bag were brought to me right at the front door. Happy to have found Rover too - a really great service. Thanks again, Micki McMillan”
“As a first time user of River I was so nervous to leave my baby with someone, but Karen was so great. She sent me many photos and was super sweet. Meeting her made me feel so good about leaving him in her care”
“My First time using this service. Scout was very well taken care of, and even interacted with other dogs. Shafiyah kept me up to date with pics and videos, which I shared with friends while I was on vacation. I have seen services like this in Bigger cities, but tucked away in Midland is a very professional sitter. Thanks Shafiyah I know Scout can't wait to visit again.”
“Brittany and Cavan were awesome! They were able to board both of my dogs last minute when I had to go out of town for a family emergency. My dogs seemed to enjoy playing with their 3 dogs and both came home happy and well taken care of. Thank you!!”
“Marshall and his family were awesome, they took very good care of our boy Toby and sent updates and pics every morning and night, Toby loved being there and we will definitely use them anytime we need a sitter. Would definitely recommend them to anyone. Thanks”
About: Hi! I’m a loving and responsible dog mom who truly believes pets are family. 🐾 I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and understand how important it is to leave your fur baby with someone you can trust. I’ve been there. I’m patient, attentive, and love giving dogs plenty of playtime, cuddles, walks, and attention. I’m also comfortable following their regular feeding, potty, and bedtime routines so they can feel comfortable and at home. When your pup stays with me, I’ll treat them like my own and keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. ❤️🐶 I like to keep each pup’s routine as close to home as possible. 🐾 Morning potty break & breakfast, followed by playtime and cuddles. During the day, we’ll have walks, playtime, and plenty of naps. Evening includes dinner, more playtime, and a final potty break before bedtime. ❤️ Your pup will stay in a safe, clean, and loving environment where they’re treated like family. 🐾 I provide close supervision, plenty of attention, and a comfortable space for them to relax and feel at home.🏡
“I’ve booked 10-15 Rovers & Jessica was hands down the best booking I have made. I have an elderly dog that wasn’t feeling well at all. She took care of her better than I even could. Gave us up to date info on how she was doing. I appreciate her so much. This is 100% who you want to book, whether you have an elderly dog, dog with needs, or just normal booking. This is who you want to go with out of 5 stars she was 10 stars!!!”

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.
98% of sitters in Arcade 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 Arcade 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 Arcade.
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 Arcade. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 Arcade 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.
