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.
“This was our first time using Rover, and naturally, we were nervous about leaving our fur baby with someone new—but Zee completely put our minds at ease from the moment we met her. She was warm, professional, and genuinely caring. Throughout Virgil’s stay, Zee sent daily updates and photos of him playing in her backyard, lounging inside, and just being his happy-energized self. It was such a relief to know he was in such great hands while we were out of the country. Her communication and attentiveness made all the difference. We are beyond grateful for the care and love Zee showed our pup and would absolutely book with her again in the future. Thank you so much, Zee!”
“Martine was such a pleasure to work with. She has a beautiful home in a beautiful safe area with an enclosed backyard that my dog really appreciated. She had no problem administering medicine that my dog needs and they seem to have a great time together and enjoyed little walks around the neighborhood. I highly recommend Martine as a trusted pet sitter who has a warm heart for pets”
“Our sweet puppy had a blast with Lori. Her care and concern for my dog as if its hers makes her top of the line. Im grateful we have a safe place for our sweetie pup.”
“Benji had another great stay with Thi and Jace! He’s so comfortable with them, and I know he’s in great hands when I go away. If you’re looking for thoughtful dog sitters who really care about your dog, they are the ones!”
“Vivian was just what we needed for our furbaby! Our dog was loved on and played with and got lots of attention. We received pictures and updates. We would use her again!”
“Mia was very flexible and took care of my two animals, treating them as royalty. I had to extend my request a bit longer and she was able to accommodate. Received multiple updates during their stay as well as pictures, so I could definitely tell they were in great hands. Hands down, one of the best pet sitters I have dealt with since using this platform. THANK YOU, Mia B!!!”
About: I have always loved animals! and have always owned some animals! I can go on long walks, I own a big car and I am responsible and organized! I am currently in school but have a lot of free time. I am patient and understanding. I am also active and attentive! and I know of many good walking trails 😉 I am currently working a full time job but am soon going to be leaving to make time for school and will have more free time to board and do drop ins after february but for now I work 7-4:30pm but i can do walks in the evening and drop ins! when I leave my current job I will have plenty more time and opportunity to serve your animals needs 🫡 I am respectful of others property, I own 5 cats, cats who are very social but if they don’t like something they hide so dogs will not be an issue when boarding. I also don’t mind playing with animals for enrichment reasons, I also understand if a dog has a specific diet because my cats do as well. I can promise your animals needs and safety can be trusted with me 🫡
“Amanda has been our go to dog sitter for our goldendoodle Thor since he was a baby. He always has the best time and looks so happy every time we take him there. We never have to worry about him when we travel, because we know he’s in good hands!”
“Our two dogs came home happy and well cared for. Alexis and Sean sent us messages and photos throughout the day and that made me feel better about having to leave them! I will definitely call on Alexis and Sean again in the future. Thank you!”
“I can not recommend Damon and Rain enough. They have watch our golden doodle twice, as she is still a puppy and on the active side they have been amazing with her. She loves staying with them, it’s like her home away from home.They have great communication in regards to scheduling and staying updates.”
“Abbey loved our girls and made them family while they were there. We have 2 sister Snorkies who are very spoiled and since Covid we have not left them with anyone. We decided that we wanted to start traveling again and we found Abbey close to the cruise ports of Galveston, we went down early for a meet and greet and then the next day dropped them off and they were totally comfortable with her. She sent multiple messages with pictures and gave daily updates which we were so happy to receive. We have already told her that the girls will be back for sure. Thank you Abbey for loving the girls!!”
“Grace is so AWESOME! She made my Corgi feel like a part of her family. Sent me pics of him every 2 days. This was my first time using Rover, and it was sooooo worth it. I know he got so much love & attention from her family. I was scared he wouldn't want to come home. I'll use her again soon.”
“My Charlee stayed with the family for 9 days. I received a summary and picture of each day while on vacation. Charlee was having so much fun. I never worried about her being lonely or uncared for. Sure makes a vacation more relaxing knowing your dog is in good hands. I highly recommend Sebastian and family for your pets care.”
“It was a great first experience using Rover. They took great care of my dog! They responded to my communication immediately and also provided updates on how my dog was doing (including pictures).”

Pet 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!

The average cost for Pet 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,825 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in El Lago. About 92% of El Lago sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
