Karen took such good care of my babies, Archie and Godfrey. She sent daily updates, took Godfrey for his daily walk and showed them a lot of love and affection. Will definitely rebook with Karen in the future.

Dave did an awesome job for us. This was our first time using rover. He helped to make this an easy process. We were nervous about leaving our pups with someone we didn't know and the pups we nervous starting out. When we picked them up they we following Dave around and we could tell the we're comfortable. Dave had gone into the house to get something we forgot and Ellie was following him back in. Will definitely recommend him and will use him again.

Jesse has been absolutely incredible with Rocco. He went above and beyond in caring for him, and it was clear from the start how much he genuinely cares about the animals he watches. Rocco was comfortable, well cared for, and in great hands the entire time, which gave me real peace of mind. Jesse was also super communicative and flexible, and really helped me out during a hectic stretch when I needed reliable support. I truly appreciate everything he did. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like their own.

My two pups (a senior and a 3 year old) stayed with Max for 6 nights. Everything went great. Max did an excellent job sharing pictures with me multiple times daily. He also came highly recommended from another sitter I use which gave me great comfort. He is a very kind person and my pups seemed to have a pleasant stay.

Jackie is an AMAZING sitter. Our dogs very clearly enjoy their time with her and her family! She gives consistent updates along with great photos of the dogs throughout their stay. She also goes the extra mile to be flexible and beyond understanding as she recently watched our dogs while my wife was in the hospital. Will definitely continue to book with her.

Grey and his partner were wonderful. My dog was well cared for and loved, and I already booked her next visit with them. My dog doesn't need special accommodations, but they were prepared for extra time, yard time (she loved that), sleep on furniture, etc. They also communicated well for meet/greet, drop off, pick up, and the times they were in the house - with pictures. My pup is heading back for my next out of town trip, because she liked staying there.

We booked Stephanie while on a getaway and she was very responsive before and during the sitting. Very flexible and has all things our little one needed outside of food and his meds. Our dog didn’t want to take his meds with the snacks provided and Stephanie improvised to get him to take them and kept us up to date. Any questions she had - she asked in person or in the app. If we’re in the San Antonio area we’d definitely book with them again!

Cathy did a wonderful job with Monty. Her dog Bentley was lovely and they got on well. Monty hates thunderstorms and barks incessantly when they are happening, and as luck would have a severe storm passed through while she was boarding him. She was able to give him his medicine and keep him calm, and to text me on how he was doing. Would recommend highly.

Mollie took great care of my nervous dog. He stayed with her over the 4th of July and made sure he was not scared during the fireworks. She also went to the store to get him more broccoli (his favorite snack). My dog was able to sleep in bed with her and she sent me videos of him playing with her dog Chance! I was very thankful to see how comfortable my dog was when he stayed with Mollie and Chance and I would absolutely use her services again in the future.

About: Hello there! I am a bonafide animal lover. I grew up with cats and dogs ranging from kittens and puppies to senior cats and large breed dogs. This isn’t about making money for me but spending time doing what I love. I always place my pets in the best care when I’m out of town and I can be that for you and your pets. I won’t just check on your pets but bond with them and create a relationship with them. I will communicate with you every time I pet sit your pet and be sure to pay close attention to any unusual behavior to make sure they aren’t becoming ill or have become injured. I am a very attention to detail type person and will be sure to follow any instructions you leave. Monday through Friday anytime after 5pm works best for me, but I’m super flexible Saturday and Sundays and even Holidays. I can come on a regular basis/weekly also. I’m an avid walker and would love the company of walking dogs! So whether that’s around your neighborhood or with your permission to take a them to a park I’m all for it! I’m also more than happy to take care of dogs and cats at your home.

Jessyca was absolutely amazing with our dog, Ellie! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew Ellie was in loving and capable hands. Jessyca treated Ellie like she was part of her own family, giving her so much love, attention, and excellent care. She kept us updated throughout our trip with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind and made us smile every day. It was clear that Ellie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Jessyca went above and beyond, and we are so grateful for everything she did. We will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly exceptional to care for their pet.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Balcones Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Balcones Heights on Rover is $38.85 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 1,421 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Balcones Heights. 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.

92% of Balcones Heights 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 Balcones Heights 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 Balcones Heights 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 Balcones Heights.

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 Balcones Heights 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.
