“As always, Heather and her husband were remarkable. So easy to communicate with. I had a flight delay due to some winter weather in the Northeast. They worked with me to allow me to pick up my girl a few hours later. Much appreciated.”
“She was so good with my boy!! My dog is a lil toot but she had no problem catering to his special perks! She frequently sent me pictures and updates which made me feel 10x better being miles away! My dog felt very comfortable and safe at her house and he was always was able to exert his puppy energy! Highly recommended her as a reliable sitter ❤️❤️”
“I had such a great experience with my Skylar! She took amazing care of my pup while I was away and made me feel totally at ease. She sent regular updates and photos, which meant so much and helped me relax knowing he was happy and well looked after. It was clear she genuinely cared about him and paid attention to all the little details. I’d absolutely trust her again in a heartbeat — highly recommend!”
“Michelle was perfect to watch my puppy all week! She was so kind and sweet to my dog. She would even send photos of her everyday while we were gone and is very communicative. 10/10!”
“Amazing! I have a dog that is a little temperamental and Angelo was willing to give him a chance and did amazing with him. Provide me pictures, videos, and when I checked in he answered me promptly. Will definitely use again. Thank you for taking wonderful care of Hachi!”
“Flor was awesome! Very accommodating, well communicated and very patient when it came to my dogs needs. Will definitely book with her again when we’re back in town.”
“Our dog had an amazing time boarding with this family. We had a lot of updated pictures, she loved playing with Winnie, and we could tell that she was super comfortable with Aislyn and Carson as she was always cuddling with them. We really appreciated them allowing her on furniture including bed. It was like she never left home. 😊 Thank you!”
“Caitlin’s home was a wonderful place for our dog, Hazel, to stay while we were away! She has an amazing backyard and the home feels very safe and loving for dogs. Caitlin was accommodating of our schedule for dropoff and pickups and sent periodic updates and pictures of our senior pup that put our minds at ease. We feel lucky to have found such a great dogsitter in the area!”
“Thank you so much for taking great care of my floofster!! He has been knocked out since we got home 😂😂 Thank you for the photos and updates all weekend!!! I will definitely use you again in the future and recommend you to everyone!!!”
“Elizabeth was amazing. Super accommodating and great communication. She will be the only person I use for all services until I leave the area. Highly recommend her. Constant videos and pictures of the pups. Very trustworthy.”
“Our dogs loved staying with Sarah! Our boxer puppy learned so many new things at her house and our older Cocker Spaniel was treated like the couch princess that she thinks she is. They got so much attention and exercise on their vacation that they crashed out when they got home, which gave my wife and I the opportunity to do the same!”
“Dottie is very hesitant around new people so I was anxious. Angela was very patient with Dottie and before I knew it Dottie felt comfortable. Angela kept in touch with pictures and videos of Dottie. I will be using Angela again.”
“Harper loved staying with Jennifer, they sent pictures, communicated regularly, made sure Harper was comfortable and treated her like their own. Very thankful we have found our "go to" pet sitter in Galveston! Not to mention their location is very central and easy to pickup and drop off! Thank you thank you!”
“Timothy is always amazing and caring with Dobby. Dobby loves him so much! He will be our go to whenever a need arises for a sitter, as long as he has the availability of course! :)”
“Mia was very flexible and took care of my two animals, treating them as royalty. I had to extend my request a bit longer and she was able to accommodate. Received multiple updates during their stay as well as pictures, so I could definitely tell they were in great hands. Hands down, one of the best pet sitters I have dealt with since using this platform. THANK YOU, Mia B!!!”
“She took care of our puppy on such short notice (literally within minutes at 8am). Had him all day and night and we just scheduled for him to stay another night. Roki is so nice, keeps you updated, and makes us very comfortable while she watches our “son” lol highly recommend”
“It was my first time boarding my dog, Sneakers with any sitter, but I'm so happy that my initial choice was with Vivian and her son, Jonah! Sneakers absolutely loved his stay with them to the point that he thought he found his newfound home. They treated him like family and made him feel so comfortable. During my travels from across state lines and running into traffic here and there, Vivian was exceptional with accommodating pick-up times. She and her son are sweet and kind people who truly love dogs! She sent me updated photos of Sneakers within every hour or so. She made me feel reassurance knowing that Sneakers was actively enjoying himself. Vivian and Jonah are two people you can trust to take care of your furry loved ones. Thank you again!”
“Thank you Susan for taking care of our 2 pups! They are worn out when we get them back!! We love the updates you provide!! They love being with you especially chloe!!”

Kelly was amazing! My fur baby came back happy and maybe a little sad to leave her care! 😉 she was super flexible and understanding when I was late picking her up due to a traffic accident that kept me from keeping my pick up time. I will use Kelly again when I am back in Galveston! The whole family was super sweet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 483 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Bayou Vista. 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.
96% of Bayou Vista 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 Bayou Vista 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 Bayou Vista 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 Bayou Vista.
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 Bayou Vista 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.
