“FIVE STARS AND MORE FOR TEENA!! She and her family took such excellent care of my Hadley. They treated her like their own and she had the best time!! She was so happy in every picture and it made leaving her so much easier. I won't call anyone else ever, there just isn't a better caregiver than Teena!!!”
“I can’t recommend her enough as a dog sitter. She’s not only incredibly attentive to my pup’s needs, but she also communicates quickly and thoughtfully. I always feel at ease knowing my dog is in such careful hands!”
“Yvette is a very attentive sitter. We had a meet-n-greet before the day of service. The objective was to see how my dog responded to her and the environment. When I walked into her home, there were no offensive dog smells and her home was clean with kennels and a backyard large enough to give my dog space to run around. The day of service, Yvette, would have provided food but I elected to bring my dog’s food. She obviously knows how to work with finicky dogs because mine would not eat without something added to his food. Yvette, knew how to handle that situation and I appreciate her initiative. I will use her services again when the need arises.”
“Bridget and Trevor are amazing! They have daily updates while we were in vacation, were always available when we reached out, and we felt good knowing they were being well-cared for. Thank you both!”
“OMG!! Aimee is the BEST!! This is the 2nd time we have had to leave our Zeus with someone, other than my parents, so we were nervous, but Aimee took all of our fears away. She sent personalized collages, photos, videos, and notes throughout his stay to keep us informed. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to not only look after their fur baby while they are away but also someone to care for your fur baby like he/she is her own! I look forward to having Zeus be a part of her family the next time we are away. Thank you so much Aimee ❤️”
“Bentley spent about 10 days with Lauren and her family. He seemed right at home with them and loved playing with all of his new friends. They took great care of our fur baby! We will definitely use Lauren again and we highly recommend her.”
“Absolutely the most amazing pup sitter! My Pete was so happy in every photo and video sent. My dog mama heart was so at ease leaving him knowing I could depend on them to give him the love and attention he is used to getting at home. I am so thankful and highly recommend if you need a sitter for your babies!!!”
“I can always count on Kathya to treat my girls like her own. My girls get excited when they see her which always makes me feel at ease when I have to go out of town.”
“Great experience! Communication was great, and Buddy had a fun time! I appreciated the updates and felt good knowing he was in good hands. I would definitely recommend and book again!”
“Valerie was awesome. First time leaving any of my pets with anyone when I travel. I was afraid at first but after talking with her on the phone I knew I picked the right person and it felt like i knew her forever. She's that kind of perxpn. Loving and caring. Kept my baby for 5 days and during the 5 days she sent pics and informed me if his status. I will definitely use her again.”
“My babies are usually very shy and timid but they took to Alma and family so well. Constant picture and videos without asking. They took great care of my babies and we will be reaching in the future.”
“AnTuan was an amazing sitter! He took such great care of my pup and was very very flexible and easy to connect with. I really appreciate the extra lengths he took to meet us before scheduling and also for offering to drive my pup home, knowing that I was going to have to walk home with his heavy crate. I would definitely book with AnTuan again!”
“Mary was a great sitter! She really took care of my dogs while they were staying at her house. One of them kept escaping her crate and Mary let her use her own crate while they were staying at her house. Huge yard for the dogs to go run around, great environment.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - DeSoto
This was my first time using Rover and my puppy is only 5 months. I was so worried about how she would behave with someone she didn't know. To my surprise she gravitated to Ashley and she settled in very quickly. She sent plenty of pictures and gave a daily update. Ashley definitely gave me comfort while I was away from my pup. She will be my go-to sitter on the platform from now on. Thank you Ashley!
We went for a visit before their scheduled stay, and my babies weren’t shy at all! They happily interacted with the other puppies who were there. When my husband dropped them off, they didn’t even look back for him after he handed their leashes to Tabitha, which gave us so much reassurance that they felt comfortable with her. Tabitha did a wonderful job communicating with us throughout their stay and keeping us updated on how our babies were doing. She even gave them baths and sent them home with personalized scarves, which was such a sweet touch! We’re so happy with the care she provided and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their fur babies.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
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.
95% of sitters in DeSoto 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 DeSoto 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 DeSoto.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in DeSoto. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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 DeSoto 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.
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.
