“Karen is a great sitter! She took the time to learn about our pup’s routine ahead of our trip and was very attentive to him during his stay. We received consistent communication including photos and videos throughout the week. Highly recommend Karen for your dog care needs!”
“I’ve used Rover for a few years now and Max was probably the best sitter I’ve ever booked with. He is so nice and extremely communicative during the stay. Not once did I wonder what my dog was doing because Max sent photos and updates every step of the way. I will 100% be using Max for any future stays.”
“It appears Jaxson had a wonderful stay with Juan and family. He has been asleep since returned home. Juan provided us with pics and videos of Jaxson stay. Sure made us happy to see Jaxson having a good time. Juan and his family left us with a very good felling about how he cares for our pets. Thanks again Juan and company.”
“They took care of my little baby as one of their own. Communication was amazing and fast. I got multiple pictures every day. They were very accomplished with my little senior baby and she came back home really happy and well taken care of. I will always appreciate how good they were to us! 🤍”
“Stephanie was amazing! She is super sweet, communicative, and kept us updated on how our pups were doing during our week long vacation. We felt super comfortable knowing our girls were going to be well taken care of as soon as they entered the gates of her home. I would definitely contact Stephanie if and when we needed for our future trips.”
“Alana is so kind and did a great job caring for our pup over the Christmas week. He came home happy, smelling great, with the cutest bandana and a little Christmas gift. Totally spoiled him! He came home tired from playing with her pups, too. Definitely recommend Alana!”
“Olivia was fantastic with Bunny. I got regular updates, pics, and videos to let me know how she was doing, and it was a great opportunity to get Bunny socialized with Olivia’s dogs and cats. Olivia and her husband were super friendly and easy to work with, and I know Bunny had a great time making new friends! I’ll def be bringing her back 🩵”
“Priscilla was a great help! Due to an unfortunate situation our sitter cancelled leaving me with a small window of time to find another sitter. Priscilla was great with Pebbles. We received daily picture updates! Will most certainly be using her again!”
“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.”
“Yvonne took excellent care of our boy! She was very responsive, sent daily pictures and communications and took good care of him. I definitely will be booking again with her for our next trip. Thanks Yvonne!!”
“Lorena was the best decision I could’ve made to watch my senior dog Lilly while I was out of town for a week. She followed all my feeding instructions and even let her rule the couch lol. She took Lilly on multiple walks every day because Lilly requested them, so Lilly was very spoiled and entertained. Lorena also updated me at least twice daily with a bunch of pictures that I enjoyed looking through while on my trip. It felt like Lilly was part of her family, and I would highly recommend Lorena for any service she provides. You can tell she loves what she does.❤️”
“Genesis was great with our pup! She kept us up-to-date with how she was doing and was flexible with pickup time. We will definitely use her again if we are in town visiting!”
“Felicia and her family were great. The days we needed a last minute sitter worked well for her and I am thankful for her availability. While we were gone, they took A a for a walk and sent us pictures and updates.”
“The whole experience from beginning to end was fantastic. Breanna was so easy to work with and I knew my dog was in good hands. I really appreciate how flexible she was with pickup. After several delays, my return flight didn’t get me back until 2am. She accommodated me for an additional night without hesitation.”
“My pup is always so excited to get dropped off. Abel and Alisa always take the best care of my little girl and always provide me updates throughout the day ❤️”
“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!”
“Wilber and Jeanelly are true gems! Their love, care, and attention make all the difference, ensuring our Baby feels happy and loved when we’re away. It’s comforting to know he is in such compassionate and capable hands! Thanks again ❤️”
“I had a wonderful experience with Fernando this weekend. He was so kind, communicative, and easy to book with from start to finish. Throughout the stay he sent lots of photos, which gave me total peace of mind. My dog came home happy and completely exhausted from all the great playtime. I would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet!”
“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.”

Great match! Jimmy had a wonderful time. He came home happy, confident, and well cared for. I really appreciated the updates and felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands. I’d absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable sitter! 🐾
Ana took great care of my sweet Buddy! It was his first time to have anyone watch him. Ana texted photos and updates from time to time. She allowed me to bring his kennel, blanket, bed, and toys! I think he was as comfortable as he could be while being in a new place without his family! Thank you Ana! I'll book you again when I take my next trip!
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.
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!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Balcones Heights on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,425 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.
