“Mike and Abby did an incredible job caring for my dog. My dog can be a little nervous and reactive in new situations but he did so well with them! I love that they have their own dogs and big fenced in yard. It gave my dog an opportunity to socialize with other dogs and run around in an open area. They were extremely responsive and accommodating with planning drop-off and pick-off, which was especially appreciated and helpful during the holiday time. I will 1000% book with them again in the future.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care, attention, and reliability I bring to every pet I watch. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them as if they were my own. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, providing plenty of exercise and playtime, or simply giving them companionship and affection, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m highly dependable, communicate consistently, and provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. Every animal has a unique personality, and I take the time to understand their needs to create the best possible experience for both pets and their owners. My goal isn’t just to watch your pet—it’s to build trust, create a positive experience, and become someone both you and your pet can count on. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy staying active, spending time outdoors, and providing consistent care and attention. I make time each day for walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and one-on-one interaction to ensure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I prioritize reliability and structure, so I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to make sure their routines stay as normal as possible. Whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, evening play sessions, or simply providing companionship, I enjoy making pets a part of my day and giving them the attention they deserve. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a side task—it’s an opportunity to care for animals, build trust with pet owners, and make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. 🐾 When caring for pets, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow each pet owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication requirements, and any special preferences or behaviors. In a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, feeding, and companionship while keeping the environment clean and secure. I also send regular photo and video updates so owners can feel confident their pet is doing well. If caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, safe, and welcoming environment where they can relax and feel at ease. I make sure they receive plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, affection, and supervision throughout their stay. Every pet is unique, so I take the time to understand their personality and needs to provide personalized care that helps them feel happy and comfortable while their owner is away. 🐾

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Balch Springs
Cathy was amazing with our dog, Hulk! She kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s obvious she genuinely loves and cares for animals, and Hulk absolutely loves her. We could tell he was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. We highly recommend Cathy and will definitely continue using her whenever we need a sitter!
I couldn't be happier with the care she provided for my fur baby! She treated my pet as if it were her own, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated with pictures and messages. Her rates are very accessible and affordable, especially considering the exceptional level of care she provides. I will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!
This was my first time issuing rover and the first time my sweet girl (12) stayed anywhere other than family. When we pulled up Lacey was smiling so big and just seemed ready to get out of the car and go! She seemed to have such a good time! Cortney sent me pictures and kept me updated throughout. Thank you so much!!!
Danielle is very sweet and made Saint feel right at home. Every picture she sent me showed that Saint was having a blast with her. It’s hard leaving your pet with someone you don’t know but Danielle made it very easy to trust her. She definitely has a return customer. Thank you, Danielle!!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Balch Springs on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 3,681 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Balch Springs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Balch Springs sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Balch Springs landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Balch Springs 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 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 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.
