“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!”


“Amanda was absolutely wonderful with our one-year-old pup, Lalo! We needed a sitter for a last-minute weekend getaway, and she was incredibly accommodating and responsive from the very beginning. Lalo is a rescue dog with very limited experience around other adults, so leaving him with someone new was a big step for us. Amanda was patient, understanding, and took great care to help him feel comfortable. One of our favorite parts of his stay was that he had the opportunity to enjoy supervised playtime with other dogs, which was such a positive social experience for him. Amanda also kept us updated throughout the weekend by sending pictures and progress updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Lalo was in caring, capable hands. We're so grateful for the love and attention Amanda gave Lalo, and we look forward to booking with her again in the future. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”

“This was our second time leaving Roscoe with Diana and it went well. Roscoe was very comfortable being dropped off with Diana and he even was ready to jump in her arms from mine when we arrived. Unless she isn’t available on future dates she will definitely be my go to. Thank you for what you do.”

“Lacy was very caring and loving with our pup! She made sure to inform us of his daily activities with pictures and updates. We would definitely recommend and will be rebooking for future stays.”

“Lisa (and her family) took such great care of our older dog Boomer. This was the first time that we had to leave for a week and we were nervous about it. Lisa sent us updates on how he was doing and also sent a few pictures. She made sure he was part of the family. He came home a happy little guy!”

“Cheri is absolutely wonderful. Plenty of communication and photos, flexible drop off and pick up times and extremely friendly! I am completely confident and comfortable leaving our dogs with her because she truly cares for each dog and their unique needs and personality. She has tons of patience with our babies and I absolutely appreciate that. Will definitely book again!! Thanks Cheri!”

“I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter! Lisa sent plenty of pictures throughout my pups stay, which made me feel at ease. It was obvious that my dog received lots of attention, love, and care. Seeing him enjoying himself in every update made being away from him so much easier. I highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. I'll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Teena and her incredible family are so wonderful to my sweet Hadley!! She loves my big girl just like her own. It is so nice to not worry one second about Hadley while we are gone. Thank you Teena!!!❤️”

“Suraj was so great with our fur babies Ben & Jerry. He walked them everyday. Took such great care of them like they were their own. If they did not want to eat, they would give them different foods to try to make sure that they are not hungry. I will be using him again in the near future. He would send me texts and emails with pictures of the dogs. We had a meet and greet before we decided to leave our fur babies with him. They got along so well with their own dog Nanu. The first time the boys met them, they were so comfortable with Suraj and his family, that they laid down in their home to get belly rubs from them. I am going to refer him to all my friends and family. He also took great care of Jerry’s leg. Jerry has a little spot that was irritated and treated the wound very well.”

“I can tell that Axle had the most amazing time with this very sweet and special couple. They loved him like he was their own and I even felt like he was bored when I excitedly got him back home to our routine. He loved being there that much!”

“I couldn’t recommend Kylie enough. She communicated very well throughout the week she cared for my dog, sent pictures frequently of him and let me know how he was doing. For using Rover for the first time, she was without a doubt, a wonderful example of what caring for your pet is all about and I’m more than happy with the service she provided. No hesitation, will use her again if I need future care for my dog.”

“My cat Momo seemed to enjoy his stay. Kristin is an excellent pet sitter and did everything right! She sent me photos and updates when I requested them and I felt good knowing he was safe and having fun. I would definitely use Kristin as a pet sitter when I need to.”

“Ana was awesome. My dog Austin certainly enjoyed his self. She was able to continue his daily walks during his boarding and entertained him thoroughly during his stay. She stayed in communication with us and sent daily photos. Will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“Brandi and Marvin took such great care of Otis. He had so much fun at their house and got along great with their cute friendly dogs. They have a big clean yard for them to play in and a nice comfy house for them to cool off and relax in. They sent pictures and updates so we always knew Otis was happy and in good hands. We will definitely choose Brandi and Marvin again and highly recommend. They are awesome people and will treat your dog like their own.”

“Emma was fantastic and Kerchak loved her! She did a great job of keeping me updated on how my pup was doing. She took such good care of him, even when he had one of his seizures that he doesn’t get often. Highly recommend her!”
“He took care of my dogs so well and sent pictures of them the whole time we were gone. They went on walks to the park, and around the neighborhood. I highly recommend:)”


About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was little. My family has always had dogs and cats as part of our family. As the older sibling I have always been the go to person for both babysitting and animal sitting. I am currently unemployed and have open availability for weekdays and weekends. Mornings, and afternoons as well as boarding options for anyday of the week I live in a half an acre home with a fenced yard. I have the sweetest most friendliest golden doodle retriever mix that loves to play and make new friends

“Ivy was so sweet and luna seemed so happy in her care. She sent me videos and pictures throughout the stay and took her on multiple walks. She was flexible & communication was great. Definitely recommend (:”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 649 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Avalon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
97% of sitters in Avalon 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 Avalon 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 Avalon.
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 Avalon. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 Avalon 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.
