“Always a great experience!! It was my pups birthday and Karen dressed my Coco in a birthday hat and bandana and took some great pics. Grateful. 🙏🏼”
“Juan and his family took such great care of Teddy! They sent me several pictures and videos and he looks like he was having the time of his life. Teddy will definitely stay with them again! I would highly recommend using Juan!”
“Excellent service! I plan to use Dave again for future trips for sure. He seems very knowledgeable about dog behavior. My dog has behaviors sometimes around other dogs so I really wanted someone trustworthy who could manage this behavior and Dave was a perfect fit. I also love that he has cameras in the home to watch the dogs if he ever leaves. I know my fur baby was safe while I was away.”
“Sparky loved his stay with Max. Max was very good about keeping me updated throughout the day on how Sparky was doing and would send me pictures multiple times a day. I will be booking him again next time I go on vacation :D”
“Alana was super sweet and took great care of our Riley Roo!! She communicated with us in the morning and evening with cute pics of our pup and was very accommodating to our wishes. It’s clear she’s a dog lover through and through. Highly recommend 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.”
“Such a professional and caring service, we felt that Chester was with family! Me and my wife fully recommend them! Don't look for any other options!”
“Gave 5 stars because that is the max. Ammo has now stayed with Stephanie several times this year. This was my last trip of the year but I’m sure Ammo will be super glad to see Stephanie and her husband again in January!!”
“Our Jupiter had the best time with Lorena. She was SO wonderful and showed him so much love and gave him all the attention. He went for lots of walkies and got lots of snuggles. He’s a senior pup and she made me feel confident knowing all his special instructions were followed. She’s a gem, and sent so many pictures which made me very happy to see!! 10/10, thank you Lorena and your family for taking such good care of Jupiter ❤️”
“Oh how my Shelby loved Anna, she made herself right at home. Anna was wonderful with my girl. She is communicative and flexible and everything you could want in a caregiver for your pet. I will definitely book with her again!”
“They were great with my fur babies and very patient with them. My dogs have separation anxiety and like to be near people all the time. They handled them with care, patience and understanding. Very nice couple, overall really good people.”
“Lisa was very warm and everyday I received a photo of my cat that would make my day. I highly recommend Lisa & Brandon to dog and cat owners that want their pets to be in a caring home during an out of town event.”
“Breanna did such an excellent job of taking care of my dog. My dog has lots of fun in her place with other dogs. It feels like my dog has access to the dog park every day! If your dog likes playing with other dogs and needs to socialize, Breanna is your best choice!”
“Breanna and Jonathon are absolutely amazing! They did an awesome job with Peanut and Molly. My dogs were so well cared for, and I received daily updates that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. They treated my pups just like family—even letting them sleep with them—which meant the world to me. We’ve tried boarding before, but our dogs never seemed as happy as they were with Breanna and Jonathon. The difference was night and day! It was clear that they truly love what they do and go above and beyond to make pets feel comfortable and loved. I will definitely be using them again. They took outstanding care of our dogs, and I can’t recommend them highly enough!”
“Thank you so much to Olivia and her husband. They took great care of our corgi. He came back healthy and happy. I enjoyed all the pictures she sent while we were away.”
“Abel and Alisa took incredible care with our fur baby Cinnamon! Alisa sent daily updates, pictures, and kept us informed on how she was doing and all the fun activities she took part in!! We would absolutely love to have them sit her again. On top of all of this, they gave us treats to take home!! Thank you so much for taking such good care of Cinnamon, we will most definitely love for her to stay with y'all again in the future!!💕☺️”
“Our fur baby absolutely loved Ms. Mollie. Ms. Mollie was very communicative and sent us daily updates with lots of photos. We appreciated her attention to detail and how she made sure my our fur baby was comfortable and happy. Thank You Ms. Mollie.”
“Cathy was wonderful from the meet up and throughout the stay. We were out of country and hated leaving our babies but she comforted us with lots of updates and pictures! Our dog and hers loved each other which was great! My old bulldog loved the couch and chair with lots of pillows and blankets. We did not have to worry about them while we were so far away which was great!”
“Deanna was very communicative and flexible! It was my first time away from my dog and the updates were very much appreciated. She went above and beyond to accommodate my dogs needs and even was able to extend boarding last minute due to my canceled flight.”
“Yoana was friendly, accommodating, and flexible. When I had an appointment that altered the course of my day, she made me feel at ease that my pets were taken care, even over my regular time. She took my pet bird too and kept me updated on how they were doing throughout the day with photos. I’m very grateful to her and this app! Thank you!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Balcones Heights
April was the absolute sweetest person ever! We reached out to her with a pretty last-minute request to watch our pup, Brock, and she was extremely accommodating from the very beginning. She was so responsive, attentive, and genuinely caring with our geriatric dog. April sent us tons of pictures and videos throughout his stay, and I could truly tell that Brock was enjoying his time with her! I never once felt worried. I knew he was safe, happy, loved, and in amazing hands the entire time. ❤️ She was also incredibly flexible and easy-going, especially when our drop-off time didn’t go quite as planned. She was so kind and understanding about everything, which made the entire experience even easier for us. I would 100% recommend April to anyone looking for a dog sitter who is responsible, safe, loving, responsive, and genuinely just an extremely sweet person! We will absolutely be using April again in the future to watch our pup. Thank you again, April! You were absolutely amazing, and we appreciate you so much! 🐾❤️
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.
Felicia was great during my dogs stay! She was good about providing me with pictures and updates. My dog unexpectedly needed to take medicine and have eye drops administered and she was able to do this despite him being fussy. I am grateful that my dog was in such great hands while I was away.
Jesse is SO flexible! I need that for my life, haha. He makes it very easy for me not to stress about finding care for Toby whenever the need comes up. Jesse usually takes care of multiple dogs and my dog LOVES being around and playing with "the pack". So thankful for Jesse!
Dorothy watched both my goldens for two days and kept me updated with how they were doing the entire time. I could tell by the pictures she sent, how much fun they had. She was very accommodating to my dogs needs and made sure to give one of my dogs ear drops during the day. We will definitely be booking her again!

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.
