“Laura was very kind,quick to respond and flexible with a few last minute changes. She sent me the cutest pictures of my pup ,clearly enjoying her stay!! I couldn’t ask for someone better!”

“Katie is absolutely amazing! Our dog, Tess, is a senior, so we’re especially particular about making sure she’s somewhere she feels comfortable, safe, and loved. Tess absolutely loved staying with Katie! Katie has a beautiful property and did such a wonderful job keeping Tess engaged, happy, and cared for while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was getting plenty of attention and affection. Don’t hesitate at all to book with Katie. She is amazing, and we would absolutely trust her with Tess again! ❤️🐾”

“Namita was incredibly sweet and very accommodating with our travel plans. She went out of her way to make things more convenient for us, which was greatly appreciated with my hectic schedule. Not only that, she also sent me regular pictures and updates of my dog! My pup came home happy and exhausted. I highly recommend Namita as a pet sitter :)”

“Rebecca is awesome with my pup Harper. She sends pics and videos frequently. Love that she doesn't watch many dogs at once so you can be sure the fur baby is getting all the attention they deserve 😊”

“The sense of warmth , the sweetness at arrival and the open communication made this a great experience. As a first timer boarding client I had my concerns, but, Ms. Kacie treated us with such respect and kindness, that faded all away. Thank you again for taking such a good care of our furry baby.”

“Talia and Andrew were excellent as always. We had a long trip planned all the way cross the world and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing Amina was in good hands. They are always available to us and this has brought us such peace of mind. We received pictures everyday and when we went to pick her up she was so well taken care of. Thank you for making our lives so much easier and taking great care of our Amina!”


“Esteban and Alana did an excellent job caring for my puppy. She sent pictures on a daily basis. My puppy appeared to be very happy and right at home. She treated my puppy as part of the family. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone needing a pet sitter, They were GREAT!!!”

“Bandit had the best time with Laura! She sent regular pictures and videos which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. He was well taken care of and so happy! You can tell Laura truly loves animals and treats them like her own. I would definitely book with her again!”

“I highly recommend Ariana for dog boarding. She provides excellent care and keeps me updated with photos, which I truly appreciate. The best part is the home environment she offers; Cali is never confined to a kennel and instead spends her day surrounded by a loving family and other dogs. Ariana’s supervision is top-notch, and I feel completely at ease leaving Cali in her hands.”

“We had such a great experience with June’s stay! From the moment she arrived, it was clear she felt right at home. The sitter’s sweet dogs welcomed her right in, and they all played together like old friends. It was such a comfort knowing June was in a safe, loving environment surrounded by happy, friendly pups. I could tell she enjoyed every minute of her time there. We’re so grateful and will definitely be booking again!”

About: I’ve always had a huge love for animals and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I also have experience caring for cats and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I currently have a 2-year-old Golden Retriever and a 10-year-old Maltipoo, so I’m very comfortable with both energetic young dogs and older pets. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat your pets like they’re part of my own family! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve! I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, with additional availability on weekends. I’ll always work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s routine and needs. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care. When I’m caring for your pets, I’ll keep them safe and comfortable in their own home while following their normal routines. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and anything else they need. I’ll treat your home with respect and your pets like they’re part of my own family!
“Angelo is a wonderful Pet Sitter (from a human perspective). He is communicative with daily pictures and very responsive to questions. His home, yard, and set up are perfect for pets. He follows all of your requests even when you forget to send the brush. He doesn't take too many pets at once. He doesn't force them into cages. My dog came home happy and tired, which is a good thing because she was active. I only wish pets could speak and tell us about their experience! Angelo sends a sweet note and homemade treats home with the dog too! I will definitely go back to Angelo.”

“Having never used Rover before I was nervous about leaving my pupper with a stranger. But let me tell you. Michelle absolutely loves dogs and knows what they like. Her dogs played with ours, and my dog was right at home with Michelle and her own dogs. My Isha was so well taken care of and with the updates and pictures every day felt very happy for my dog. I will always try to book Her whenever we cruise out of Galvaston. What a wonderful experience and great first impression of Rover. Thank you so much Michelle for being awesome.”

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Cove can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Cove 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 Cove.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Cove 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.
