“Nancy and Santa were absolutely amazing with my girl, Coca Cola! 🐶 They went above and beyond to make sure she was happy and comfortable during her stay. I loved that they sent me constant photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. At the end of the stay, they even provided a thoughtful doggy report card – such a sweet touch! It’s clear they are not only caring but also very knowledgeable when it comes to pups. I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving sitters to watch their fur babies. Thank you both so much!”
“Ashley is one of the sweetest person I’ve met and was so amazing with our 6 months old pup, Charlie! She kept us updated with texts and pictures throughout the day. I’m pretty sure Charlie had a great time and was comfortable in her care. Will definitely book again!! Thank you Ashley!!!!”
“Ashley and her family are amazing. Our 2 dogs and cat had a blast with them, she sent pictures often, and she communicated daily. The dogs especially loved the outdoor space to run. We were so pleased, we've already booked her for our next trip. Highly recommended!”

You’re simply the best!”
“Janelle has been great with my pup Leo. Always sends pics and provides updates on how he's doing and gets a lot of playtime. I've used both daycare and boarding services and trust he's in good hands!”
“Carrie was beyond incredible—truly a lifesaver! She stepped in without hesitation for our last-minute emergency and took phenomenal care of our 2-year-old dog. This was his very first time away from home, and she made him feel safe, loved, and completely comfortable from day one. What meant the world to us was that she kept us updated every single day with pictures and messages, which gave us so much reassurance and peace of mind. Her kindness, patience, and genuine love for animals are unmatched. We knew our pup was not just cared for, but truly cherished. If you’re looking for someone you can trust 100% with your pet, Carrie is the one—no hesitation, no second thoughts. Highly, highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for three years, which is how long I've had my dogs for. I have helped my friends with dog sitting while they have been out of town. I house trained my oldest dog since she was a puppy . One of my dogs takes daily medication and have experience in that area. I will follow your care instructions, as my goal is for your pup to be comfortable and feel safe during their stay with me. Hi! I go by Mery, a work-from-home pet lover with a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your dog just like you would. Since I’m home throughout the day, your pup will never be left alone for long—and I’m always available for potty breaks, playtime, and snuggles whenever they need them. I have a fenced backyard, that I keep clean at all times. Perfect for potty breaks and play time. I have two goldendoodle girls who are really friendly and playful with other dogs. I’m happy to stick to your dog’s usual schedule, meals, walks (if weather permits), crate/quiet time and even medications if needed.
“We boarded our 6 month old Golden-doodle, Dude with Ashlynn for 5 days. She was so quick to message me back and sent me pictures everyday. Ashlynn was flexible and worked with the times we could drop him off and pick him up. We will absolutely be boarding again with her! Highly recommend!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 East Columbia home-away-from-home, 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 East Columbia.
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 East Columbia 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 , 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 .
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.
