“I'm so thankful for the care that Todd & Tracy provided. From the pictures, Marco looked like he was smiling and content the entire time! We felt very comfortable leaving our somewhat particular pup with them and will absolutely return. 5/5 recommend”
“Mikayla was amazing! She sent lots of pictures and videos and my dog seemed to have a wonderful time with her and her family!! I will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Paul is AMAZING! We met him at a neutral park first. My PJ liked him. Then we met Blaze, who is a very friendly pup. Paul sent pictures and was very responsive while I was gone. I will DEFINITELY call on him again!”
“Arianne was so caring and compassionate with our dog! She kept our dog while we were away for a weekend. She kept communication with us throughout the weekend, sending pictures and texts updating us on how our dog was doing and asking questions when needed. She was very knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors, as well. She is quick to respond and was very accommodating us, even though we contacted her with less than a week before our trip. I highly recommend her!”
“I am very pleased with having Tamara as Moon's dog sitter (5 nights). Moon (30 lb, mixed terrier) obviously had a great time. She came back home a happy dog. Tamara sent daily text updates, with pics, which was so great to receive. I will definitely call on Tamara again.”
“Mary Jane took great care of Lucy! Lucy misses her momma when I leave her. Mary Jane gave her treats and spent time loving on her & Lucy had a great time! We plan to leave Lucy in Mary Jane’s care again.”
“Lezlie is great! Highly recommend! I had to extend my pups stay but Lezlie was so accommodating and easy to communicate with. My pup Mila has a blast and I will definitely have Lezlie watch her again!:)”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since sophomore year of high school and I feel pretty comfortable with any dog of any size! I would take very good care of each dog I encounter to ensure they are safe. I’m currently a college student at Texas A&M, so I am more flexible friday through sunday for dog sitting. As well as in the mornings on mondays, wednesday, and friday for dog walking. I always follow the owners instructions on how to best accommodate the dog. And in the clients house I make sure to maintain boundaries and ensure the dog is cared for and safe.
“Peyton was so nice and very accommodating, since my schedule changed a lot. I appreciated her flexibility and kindness. She took great care of my dog and sent cute pics. I fully trusted her. Highly recommend! I would totally book her again.”
About: I was 12 when I got my first dog, a cocker spaniel named Megara. My parents quickly put me in charge of her, and caring for her taught me to put another's needs before my own. She gave me lifelong lessons about the love and loyalty between a pet and their owner. Today I have an Old English Sheepdog named Delphi. Other owners at the dog park often comment on how sweet she is, and she has grown into a great older sister to our family dog, Luna (who lives with my family). Between the two of them, I am comfortable with large breeds and with the extra patience senior dogs need. I have also dog sat regularly for friends, so I am used to stepping into someone else's routine and keeping their dog on it. I am very outdoorsy on top of that, so your dog will get real walks, not a quick trip around the block. As a PhD student, I work from home most of the day. My time on campus is limited to a few classes, my TA hours, and a student association meeting every other week, so I am home and available far more than someone on a standard nine to five. That flexibility is a big part of why I got Delphi at the start of my PhD. She has always had someone around to take her out during the day, and I can offer your dog the same. Before any payments or booking, I would like to set up a meet and greet so I can see how your dog responds to me. It tells me a lot, whether they warm up right away or need space, and it means the first day is not the first time we have met. This doesn't have to be long but it is a nice first impression to the dog. In my home, your dog will not be alone. Delphi is here as company, and I introduce new dogs to her slowly and on neutral ground so the first meeting goes well for both of them (like a local dog park). I live in a quiet, secure apartment community with an on-site dog park and an open field next door, plus several trails within walking distance, so your dog gets real exercise rather than being cooped up all day. Delphi is not crate trained and has free run of the apartment, but I am happy to crate your dog if that is part of their routine. Just bring the crate and let me know the schedule you use. In your home, I stick to your dog's routine rather than imposing my own. I follow your feeding times, walk schedule, and house rules, keep dogs leashed anywhere that is not fenced, and send photo updates so you know how the day went. If anything seems off with your dog, I contact you right away, and I am prepared to drive them to a vet if it cannot wait.
“Kayla did an amazing job!! Bailey came home so worn out and happy, couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker! She sent me pictures throughout the stay and made sure my pup was taken care of!! 10/10 recommend”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded not just by animals. Because of that, I’m comfortable with all personalities, temperaments, and care needs. Whether your pet is playful, shy, senior, or somewhere in between, I treat every animal like my own—with patience, attention, and genuine love. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I work outside the home, but I work close by where coming home at lunchtime to check on or check on furry friend it’s not a problem. I have a fenced in yard and I am very careful to keep the doors closed. I am responsible and aware of things going on around me.
About: Animals have been my entire life and passion. I grew up caring for them and have extensive, hands-on experience handling all types of personalities, sizes, and needs. My background includes working on a ranch where I managed boarding operations and administered medical care for both large and small animals. I am deeply committed to animal welfare. I have also spent years volunteering with multiple city Trap-Neuter-Return/Release (TNR) programs, which taught me how to safely handle anxious or fearful animals with patience and respect. I love all animals and treat every guest like family. Your pet will be staying in a home that is truly optimized for their safety and well-being.I work from home full-time with a highly flexible schedule, which gives me 24/7 availability. I take frequent breaks throughout the day to play, walk, and monitor your pet, ensuring constant supervision. Thanks to my ranch and TNR background, I have expert handling skills and understand animal behavior well. I can comfortably handle high-energy or shy pets, and I am fully confident administering oral medications, injections, or following strict medical routines.Because I work from the comfort of my home, your pet will rarely be left alone. Our daily routine includes regular potty breaks, structured playtime, and plenty of mental stimulation. Whether your pet needs a high-energy day of fetch or a quiet, comfortable space to snooze next to my desk, I easily adapt to their specific schedule and habits. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home full-time. My schedule allows me to stay with your pet almost 24/7, ensuring they are rarely left alone. Throughout the workday, I have a set routine where I take three 15-minute breaks and one full 1-hour break. I use this time to focus completely on your pet by taking them on walks, playing, or giving them potty breaks. Because my job keeps me at my desk, your pet can sleep or relax right in the same room with me all day, or they can rest in a separate room if they prefer quiet time. On weekends and evenings, my schedule is completely open for longer walks, grooming, and extra socialization. I tailor my care entirely to the unique needs of each animal, whether they are staying with me or if I am visiting your home. Thanks to my experience working on a ranch and volunteering with city trap-neuter-return programs, I am highly skilled in reading animal behavior and handling fearful, anxious, or high-energy pets. I maintain strict safety protocols, double-check that all gates and doors are secure, and follow your exact feeding and exercise instructions. If your pet has medical needs, I am fully qualified to administer oral medications and injections safely. I keep a clean, stress-free environment and adapt the daily setup based on your preferences and what fits the specific service you book.
“Roman had a GREAT time with Jessica and her crew!! She was super responsive and sent plenty of pictures and videos. She also introduced everyone slowly and does a great job of reading dogs. I have been so anxious with other sitters before so decided to book with Jessica this time due to her gazillion rave reviews and just knowing that I would have peace of mind while I was away. She is clearly extremely experienced, and even put a goodie bag of treats in Roman’s bag when I picked him up!”
“Gisella followed my instructions perfectly, and she provided excellent status updates for the duration of my trip--especially when Abbey got an upset stomach. We collaborated on how best to care for Abbey, and she made a full recovery before I returned. In short, I could tell my dog was in a great place while I was gone.”
“Everything went well with our doggies’ stay with Robert from the meet-and-greet until pick up. Robert was easy to communicate with and sent pictures each day. Our two dogs seemed well taken care of. Thank you, Robert!”
About: I grew up on a farm. Have had numerous dogs, cats and other species. I have worked at a pet resort and am currently a vet tech working at a local hospital. I am currently doing school and working part- time, but I know how to manage my time in between. For example, I love taking dogs on walks and doing interactive activities with them! I currently do have a senior dog that can keep your fur baby company. I have a fenced in yard, but I do also do walks. My dog goes on 2-3 walks a day + gets time outside in my back yard whenever she wants. She’s on a strict feeding schedule and has dietary restrictions which I also accommodate.
“Jessica has looked after my pup a few times and she's terrific! So sweet and sends pics and videos to keep me up to date. She's my #1 for watching my pup, this girl really cares, absolutely amazing!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in College Station is $35

Robert is my absolute “go to” when I need to travel and cannot bring Sammie along. Trustworthy care, with the added bonus that my dog gets a now-familiar pack of dog-buddies to keep him company, with a nicely shaded back yard oasis to romp around in — and a little pool to splash into & cool off! Thanks Robert!
Delaney was the sweetest person. She made our pups feel at home with a fresh blanket and new stuffies just for them. I couldn’t have asked more of her for communication, she answered in a timely manner any time I’d message. She made sure to learn about any quirks our dogs might have. They came home smelling good, happy and ready to nap (which was very nice after getting back from a road trip). Delaney is professional and took great care of our 2 girls for almost a week, highly recommend!
Adoriam is a one of a kind pet sitter. She kept my dog Taj at her place for over a week and he was just so clearly cared for and pampered. She’s mature, extremely responsible and reliable, and also just a warm wonderful person. We adore her and will always use her for our dog sitting from now on!
Selena was a life saver when I needed last-minute boarding for Roscoe! She treated him like family and took exceptional care of him throughout his entire stay. She updated me with pictures and their activities daily! I had total peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands, and I will definitely be booking with her again!
Tamara was great with King. He was recovering from surgery and needed meds while I was gone, so I was pretty stressed about leaving him, but she made the whole process easy. She kept me updated, took good care of him, and gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. King came back happy and healthy. I'd definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy sitter.
Olivia was wondering. We came from out of town and wanted to find someone to watch our pup in the same town. She was super friendly, responsive and took great care of our pup. We ended up having to cut our trip short due to our son getting sick and she was great about making sure our pups things were packed and ready to go. I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!!
My baby was cared for with love. Adara made sure to send me photos constantly, and we absolutely loved seeing how much affection she was receiving. We had communication constantly. This is my first time using this service, but I dare say that she is the best—and my baby was in the very best hands! I am incredibly grateful to her for taking care of her just as well as we do at home. Definitely booking her again.
We had an awesome experience with London! Communication was great the whole time and she kept us in the loop. Our pup got along super well with Sancho (Pretty sure she still misses him haha). Everything went super smooth and we’d totally trust her again. Highly recommend!!!
She was amazing. She was accommodating. She sent pictures of our fur girl to let us know she was fine. I would highly recommend her and I would use her again in a heartbeat. I appreciated the fact that even though our fur girl is big, she was not intimidated and treated her so well. If I could give her 100 stars I would.

100% of College Station 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 College Station 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 College Station 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 College Station.
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 College Station 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.
