“We had to take an unexpected trip, and when I first contacted Susan, she responded right away and accommodated our schedule. She sent daily updates with photos, and it was wonderful to see how quickly our shy dog warmed up to her new environment—Susan truly made her feel comfortable and at ease. Our return flight was delayed, but Susan reassured us that it was no problem, which gave us great peace of mind. Overall, we had a very positive experience and would highly recommend her.”
“Amazing! I have a dog that is a little temperamental and Angelo was willing to give him a chance and did amazing with him. Provide me pictures, videos, and when I checked in he answered me promptly. Will definitely use again. Thank you for taking wonderful care of Hachi!”
“Roki did an amazing job and our pup felt right at home! She’s super friendly and cares a lot about the pets ❤️ Definitely booking with her again for an amazing experience”
“Alyssa and her family deserve 10/5 stars!!!! They have loved and treated our dog as their own and part of the family. We lost our home suddenly and Alyssa took our dog in and loved her while we found dog-friendly housing...they took her on many walks and adventures and they even bathed her. She sent the sweetest updates with pictures and sweet messages about our dog. This was the second stay with Alyssa and her family but I know it won't be the last. We are so grateful for them and all they did to love and care for our dog. And she LOVES Alyssa and her family. When we arrived for the second stay, she remembered the home and ran up so excited to go again. Thank you so much Alyssa and Family!”
“Brownie’s stay with Caitlyn was fabulous! It was our first time to leave her with anyone, and she can be an anxious dog. But when we visited before the stay, we could see that the home’s vibe is very relaxed, and they said she was snuggly with them, and good with the other dogs. We really appreciate such good care!”
“First time leaving Molly anywhere. She made me feel at ease. She sent multiple pics. Molly ran around with her kids. I was happy my Molly was able to play in a large fenced yard.”
“Angela was a blessing! We were gone for 10 days and being new to the area we were so worried about leaving our pups. She took the very best care of our pups and they seemed very happy when we picked them up! We will definitely used Angela again and we highly recommend her. She is very loving and experienced and we could not be more pleased.”
“Hunter was great, very accommodating! My dog Penelope had lots of fun playing with their dogs and swimming in the pool! I will be booking with her again next time I’m out of town.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Ashley gave to Ruby! From the moment we dropped her off, Ashley made us feel completely at ease. She kept us updated with photos and messages showing how much fun Ruby was having with her dog, and it was clear she treated her like one of her own. Ruby came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Ashley is responsible, kind, and truly amazing with dogs — we highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care William provided for my dog, Gisou! From the very beginning, he was kind, professional, and clearly loves dogs. Every day, I got photos and videos that showed Gisou having a blast—she was playing with other dogs, wagging her tail, and looking happy and relaxed. Knowing Gisou was in such great hands—and that I could trust William to keep me updated—gave me complete peace of mind. I absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and thoughtful dog sitter!”

About: With 25 years of experience raising four beloved dogs of my own, I have a working understanding of canine behavior, routines, and unique personalities. Over the years, I have also provided dedicated dog-sitting for multiple breeds, ensuring they receive the same level of care, playtime, and love I give my own 35-pound pup. Because our household schedule is fully synchronized, someone is always home at our house to provide constant supervision, companionship, and peace of mind for you. Your dog will never be left lonely and will safely step right into a warm, attentive, and reliable family environment. I currently work part-time so I have plenty of time to watch after your dog. When I am at work my husband is home to assist me. I have a fenced yard and my own dog to keep your dog company. I also have a crate to house either dog if preferred.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in El Lago is $40
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - El Lago
We had a wonderful experience! Rebel was so well cared for and seemed completely comfortable the entire time. We received frequent photo updates, which gave us so much peace of mind, and every picture looked like she was right at home with us. It was clear she was happy, relaxed, and getting lots of love and attention. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!
Katarzyna always provides the best care for Jax! She goes the extra mile to ensure I’m comfortable by sending pics daily and makes sure to stay in touch while Jax is in her care. I never worry about him while we are away because she is awesome with him! Will definitely book again for our next vacation, 100% five stars!! ⭐️
Ari is one of the best Rover sitters I’ve ever experienced! I genuinely don’t think I’ll book with anyone else from now on. I have a very high-energy German Shepherd who can get a little mischievous without enough stimulation, and Ari took that need for playtime and activity so seriously. It was honestly the calmest my dog has ever been after staying with a Rover sitter. I booked with her for back-to-back weekends, and seeing how excited my dog was to see her again gave me so much comfort and reassurance. Ari truly cared for and loved my dog like she was her own baby, and you could tell by how comfortable and happy my dog was with her. It honestly felt like she had a second mom. I cannot recommend Ari enough!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in El Lago on Rover is $34.41 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 July 2026, there are 1,792 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across El Lago. 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.
95% of El Lago 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 El Lago 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 El Lago 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 El Lago.
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 El Lago 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.
