“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog carer! Cathy is reliable, attentive, and truly treats my dog as if they were their own. I felt at ease knowing my pup is in such caring hands. Daily updates and photos kept me reassured, and it’s clear my dog was happy, safe, and well-loved the entire time. I would highly recommend Cathy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and wonderful dog sitter! Thank you once again Cathy.”
“I left my 2 boys (dog and cat) with Beverly for a week while my husband and I were out of town. They seemed very comfortable and got along well with Beverly and her family. We received updates when asked and really appreciated that she only watched one family at a time so I wasn’t worried that my anxious dog would be around other dogs he didn’t know.”
“Melissa and her family were awesome! Days before going away for Christmas another sitter canceled on me last minute, luckily Melissa saved the day and was about to watch my dog. Melissa provided a home I felt comfortable leaving birdie at, and also provided me with daily updates and pictures! Would definitely recommend Melissa!”
“I would definitely recommend and will be returning whenever I need my baby to be cared for. She did an amazing job at providing daily updates not only photos but videos as well and providing tons of affection care and stability for my baby. My baby loved it over here and I can definitely tell was very well. Taken care of. Will definitely be recommending to my friends!”

“Madelin was amazing! It was my dogs first time before around others and he seemed to take to them well! Madelin provided photos/vidoes everyday along with any updates. I love how communicative she was. She also helped out with the tear build up he gets sometimes without even being asked! I am so glad she was the sitter he has every had and I’ll definitely be back.”

About: I have always had a soft spot for animals and truly enjoy caring for them. I am a loving, patient, and responsible caregiver who understands that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I have experience caring for dogs of different personalities and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and a safe environment where they can feel comfortable. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust, and I will treat your dog like part of my family while they are in my care. I am happy to follow your dog’s usual feeding, walking, medication, and daily routines so they can feel as comfortable as possible while you are away. My goal is for every pup to feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I spend a lot of time at home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give dogs plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. I can provide regular potty breaks, feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love and companionship. I enjoy having dogs around and am happy to give them the attention they need rather than leaving them alone for long periods of time. I will follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they can feel comfortable, safe, and at home while their family is away. My priority is always making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I provide a clean, calm, and welcoming home where dogs can relax, play, and receive plenty of attention throughout the day. I regularly care for my three-year-old grandchild, so there is a young child in the home. I understand the importance of supervising both children and pets and making sure they interact safely and appropriately. My home has a securely fenced backyard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time and potty breaks. I do not have any pets of my own, so your dog can receive plenty of individual attention without having to share the space with other animals. I make sure doors and gates are securely closed, keep potentially harmful items out of reach, and supervise pets throughout their stay. I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and daily routines. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I will treat every dog with patience, kindness, and care while making sure they feel safe and at home.
“Jayci took great care of Swanson! We received photo updates and he was in great shape when we picked him up. She was also flexible with pickup when we ran into a lot of holiday traffic.”
“Victoria did such an incredible dog with our big puppy, Krypto! He had never had a sitter before, but she was so patient and friendly that he warmed right up to her! She kept us informed through pictures and videos, which was greatly appreciated by this worrying mama! We would absolutely ask her to watch our fur baby in the future!!”
“Deneisha provided 5 Star card for my puppy while I was out of town for a week! I was super nervous about leaving him with someone new for that long but she assured me and my family that he would be in great and experienced hands. Deneisha asked lots of care questions, sent daily updates and pictures of our pup to ease our worries. I will def use her in the future and recommend her to other Rover clients 😊”
“Kellie was WONDERFUL with our dogs while we were in Europe for almost two weeks. Our old guy had a skin infection that Kellie worked with the vet on for us and we just could not feel better having our dogs there when we’re away.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, though usually with smaller dogs, I’m a large man and can handle dogs of all sizes. I work full time remote, and my own dog likes to curl up under my desk while I work, or play in the yard. I have a doggy door and a privacy fence, with a decent sized yard. I go on daily walks, and like to play games hiding treats around the house. The house is per proof, and dogs are allowed everywhere in the house. My dog is very friendly, and will play with dogs that like to play, and avoid dogs that prefer not to play with her. My yard is fully fenced in, and large enough for the pups to play as much as they want.
“I had to book last minute for a week and I was so nervous but Danielle was so kind and accommodating even with my dogs anxiety and all. I’m grateful for all the fun photos and updates that made me feel like a friend was taking care of my sweet Moxie girl!! 100% recommend and will do again!!! ❤️”
“Gloria, has done a great job in caring for my dogs. She takes care of them as I would, and she has a way with dogs as no other. She sends pictures and videos and goes beyond expectations. I would recommend Gloria because of her expertise in caring for small dogs.”
“Our two dogs had a great two-week stay with Melinda! She made sure we received daily updates on how they were doing, sent photos, and made sure their stay was super-comfortable. She went above and beyond - making sure they ate with her homemade broth, crafts (really!), and comforting them during storms. We'll definitely use Melinda's services again!”

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Anne! From the moment I met her and her beautiful family, I knew she was the right person to look after Pepper. Her home was clean and welcoming, with a big yard, and I felt completely comfortable leaving Pepper in her care after we left from our meet and greet. ❤️ Anne has two dogs of her own, and you can tell she has a genuine passion for caring for them. She took the time to ask thoughtful questions about Pepper, what she’s like at home, what she’s used to, and what helps her feel comfortable. She paid close attention to how Pepper was adjusting and was so patient with her. I loved knowing that Anne would take what she learned about Pepper and do everything she could to help her feel at home. She checked in, sent pictures, and made Pepper part of the family. Any picture she sent, pepper was smiling and look genuinely happy which completely confirmed having her in Annes Care. It meant so much to see that she cared for Pepper with the same love and attention I would. If you’re looking for someone who will truly get to know your dog and care about their comfort, book with Anne. She’s amazing! 🥹🙌🏽❤️
Mariana and her husband took very good care of my dog Enzo. They are very attentive, sweet and esay to communicate with which made the whole process easier for my husband and I. We can tell Enzo had a wonderful stay with them and became really good friend with their dog Benji. I would definitely recommend Mariana and would be booking manu more stays!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Balch Springs is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $52 per night.

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 Balch Springs 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 Balch Springs home-away-from-home, 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 Balch Springs.
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.
You and your Balch Springs 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 , 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 .
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.
