“Samara was absolutely WONDERFUL! My boys had the best time, we're so relaxed and well taken care of (read:spoiled rotten 😂) during their stay. The updates and photos sent throughout their stay helped me not miss them so much knowing they were being cared for in a loving home.”

“AA+++ Kimberly is the real deal when it comes to pet sitting. We had travel plans over Christmas and needed someone to watch out 15+ year old Chihuahua. He had special needs, but Kimberly said no problem. She put our mind at ease with the first meeting. While we were gone she kept in contact and sent us pictures everyday. She loved on him like he was her own fur baby. Absolutely will use Kimberly again when the occasion arrives. Just can't say enough good things.”

“My experience with Carolyn was great. My dog really felt at ease in her home -- was already off playing and didn't even say goodbye to me when I dropped him off. She was easy to communicate with on the app and sent a photo while I was away. I felt like she treated my dog like one of her own and would use her again.”

“She has done a great job making my usually extremely anxious dog comfortable and even able to play with her own dog. She was understanding and flexible with drop off and pick up times, if something happened that I needed an earlier time for either.”


About: I've watched dogs all the way from a weekend to 2 weeks. It was family members' dogs at first, then church friends, now I am ready to open our home to sweet doggies more often! I'm a stay at home mom so I am almost always home (only gone for a couple hours at a time when we do leave) I have 3 separate fenced areas in my backyard and 2 extra kennels that fit medium size dogs. I keep the dogs caged at night and when we leave the house
About: I have worked in the pet industry for over 20 years. I owned a grooming and boarding facility for 14 years and after having children have transitioned to home-based grooming and boarding. I currently groom from my home and plan to homeschool my children. I am rarely not home except to run errands or classes/outings for my children. I have a fenced yard and multiple safety measures in place. Dogs are crated when not roaming in the house or yard. I have one medium sized spayed/female who is 3 years old and very socialized.
About: I know how stressful it can be to find someone to trust with care for fur family-I’ve been there! I strive to make the experience as seamless as possible and communicate as much or as little as requested. I’ve watched and cared for animals since I was a kid from puppies/kittens (bottle feeding) to the elderly sugar faces and end of life care (including administering medications, emergency response, injury/wound care ). I have experience in volunteering in training, doggy daycare, and pet photography I work hybrid (mostly from home) and would happy to fit you into my schedule or as needed/able for both of us. My office location is also only 15 mins away. Weekends and nights work too! On my remote days I can take care of the pets more in-house and full-time. Thanks Quality time will be spend to ensure your pet is loved and I will ensure all food/comforts are taken care of tailored to each owners needs. On my remote days I am able to cater to pets more full-time

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Dawn 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 Dawn 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 Dawn.
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 can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Dawn 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.

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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
