“Becca is an amazing person and great dog sitter. We had our bichon with her on the spur of the moment and she eagerly accommodated our needs. She has a grand & clean facility and we won't hesitate to book Casper in again should we be in the area! We received multiple communications & pics which helped us so much! (We're 60+ helicopter pet owners haha). Pick Becca 1st, you'll be happy and so will your pet!!!”
“I literally cannot express enough how amazing Leeandra & Kalli are. They were soo great with Eli (who generally doesn’t like other humans lol) & he even bonded with them by the end of the stay. They are so kind, authentic and you can feel their genuine love for dogs. They sent me updates and pictures multiple times a day, all of Eli’s needs were met and he even got to have playmates during his stay and sleep in a bed like he’s used to. Truly SO grateful I found them as I was actually able to enjoy my time away from him knowing he was in the very best of hands.”
“Our dog, Shiner, had the best Christmas Ever with Judy and his new friends. I wasn’t quite sure he was going to want to come home. A big thank you for taking such good care of him. There is nothing better than being able to leave town and know that your dog is in the best care.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care of our baby, Oreo received during his stay. Erica really took the time to make sure she understood Oreo’s needs, preferences and medications. We loved how she provided us regular updates, including cute photos/video of Oreo enjoying his time there. When I picked him up, he was happy, content and clearly had a wonderful, comfortable stay. We are so relieved to have found such a reliable and caring boarding place for Oreo. We will definitely trust her with Oreo again in the future. Highly recommended.”
“Kristina and her household were an incredible extended family for our dog, Bailey! She was kind, informative, affectionate, and kept us up to date with plenty of pics, videos and messages every day. As we left Kristina’s house, Bailey was genuinely sad to leave, and I get the sense that she can’t wait for next time! Highly recommend Kristina as a crucial part of anyone’s dog care family!”
“Sherron was absolutely fantastic, and came through last minute. She sent updates and pictures the whole time. Its clear Sherron has a deep love for dogs, and i couldnt recommend her enough! Thank you from me and Brisket.”
“Tristan took such good care of my Madi! I was constantly updated on her and she seemed to fit right in with her other dogs as well. I’m sure my Madi can’t wait to stay with her again!”
“Ollie had a great experience with Julie and Michael. Communication was great and they truly showed care and comfort for my pup. He can’t wait to return. Thank you!”
“What an amazing experience! Lucia is the most calm, kind, and caring people for animals. She and her family took such great care of our little Muffin. My puppy played beautifully with her dogs and came home looking confident and relaxed. I am so happy for the experience and if I weren’t moving across country next week, I would use her again and again!”
“Allison gave such amazing care and attention to my little fur baby. I especially enjoyed the continuous updates and pictures of my dog and hers interacting. I will definitely book with her any time I need this service.”
“Melissa, Sean & family were excellent Rover Sitters. We never worried about our pet’s care while we were gone. We felt assured that he was in good hands. Daily photos & remarks were much appreciated. We will definitely book Melissa again! Thank you so much! 🩷”
“When we travel, we always look forward to leaving our bud Murray with Holly and Brady. They are awesome! We’ve had the opportunity to work with Holly and Brady several times when we were traveling. They treat Murray as if he was one of their own. Photos are regularly sent so you can see your pet in action. It’s assuring to leave your pet with a great sitter when traveling. Holly and Brady are those sitters! Strongly recommended.”
“Excellent care, attentive and responsive with an incredible space for puppies!! Ours was a bit of work but Patrick was great with communication and care for our six month old pup! Not to mention his home is better than any B&B you'll find in Austin! I think our doggie had a better vacation than we did which is just the way you want it!! Thank you Patrick and family!!!”
“Ashwani and Garima’s services worked great for our dogs - Yogi and Tuffy. Our furballs seem to be very comfortable with their family and always have a good time when they get dropped. Ashwani sends pictures every day to keep us anxious parents at ease. Will definitely continue using their services in the future.”
“Chiao was absolutely amazing with Simba and Nala! From the moment we dropped them off, we felt completely at ease. She kept us updated throughout their stay by sending loads of pictures and updates, which we truly appreciated, it made us feel so connected even while we were away. It was clear from every photo that Simba and Nala were happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of love and attention. When we picked them up, they were relaxed, playful, and clearly had a great time. Chiao is caring, reliable, and genuinely loves what she does. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“Lucy's stay could not have been better. The family was very intuned with how she was doing and settling in. They sent me regular communication and photos. We definitely will use them again for future travels. It is obvious that this was a home that loved pets.”
“Malu and her family took exceptional care of our pup for two weeks. He wasn't the easiest guest this time around, as he developed a hotspot a few days prior to his stay. They were incredibly attentive, making sure he was comfortable, monitoring the condition closely, and taking great care to help it heal without worsening. Malu also sent regular updates and pictures, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that our dog was being treated like part of the family. I would highly recommend Malu to anyone looking for a loving, home-away-from-home environment for their dog. We are so grateful for the wonderful care she provided.”
“Kara is great!! She has watching both of my dogs the past 2 times I have needed to board them. I plan on using Kara every time from here on out! She is super flexible & available on drop off/pick up times which has been super convenient for me. I love all the pictures she sends me throughout the stay-my dogs are always playing with her dogs or cuddling up on the couch!”
“Leilani was awesome! She sent me plenty of updates and took care of my dog! She worked with me on my budget and was flexible when my flight was delayed by a few hours. Highly recommend!”
“Gwen and Dalton take the best care of our sweet dog. They take him on walks, play lots of fetch and give him all of the love! I receive photos daily, which is nice. Their dog, Kato, is the sweetest guy and even runs his own Instagram account! Check it out - you won’t be disappointed! (@katobugandfriends) I’m already planning to use them for our next trip!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cottonwood Shores
Chealsea and her family took great care of Molly. With her kids and dogs, we never doubted that Molly would have plenty of entertainment while we were off on our vacation. Having Molly spend that time with a family, instead of being locked up in a kennel, is why we’re such big fans of Rover. Chealsea and the job she and her family did in provided for and caring for Molly was just what we were looking for.

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 June 2026, there are 733 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Cottonwood Shores. 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 Cottonwood Shores 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 Cottonwood Shores 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 Cottonwood Shores 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 Cottonwood Shores.
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 Cottonwood Shores 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.
