“Had a great first experience boarding with Joshua! Our dogs got along well and she seemed to have a great time. Would definitely recommend to friends and book again!”
“Definitely THE best sitter we’ve had from Rover! Max was super responsive and sent lots of updates/photos of our Scuba. We’ll for sure be using him in the future (: Thank you, Max!!”
“Breanna and Jonathon are absolutely amazing! They did an awesome job with Peanut and Molly. My dogs were so well cared for, and I received daily updates that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. They treated my pups just like family—even letting them sleep with them—which meant the world to me. We’ve tried boarding before, but our dogs never seemed as happy as they were with Breanna and Jonathon. The difference was night and day! It was clear that they truly love what they do and go above and beyond to make pets feel comfortable and loved. I will definitely be using them again. They took outstanding care of our dogs, and I can’t recommend them highly enough!”
“I’m so grateful for you and your family! I don’t worry at all when I’m away. I know you are going to take good care of Edgar and even better I know he has a great time! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Only sitter we need!”
“Megan and her family took great care of our almost 9 year old Golden Retriever! She sent several pictures and updates throughout our time apart which put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend her!”
“We couldn't be more grateful to Michaella for taking such amazing care of our dog while we were away. From the start, she made us feel completely at ease with her kind and professional approach. It was clear that our pup was not only safe, but also truly loved and cared for like one of her own. Michaella kept us updated with regular messages and the sweetest photos, which really helped us feel connected and reassured. Her communication was excellent, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. Our dog clearly adored her, and we came home to a happy, relaxed pup—which says it all. We highly recommend Michaella to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and responsible caregiver. She's simply the best! 🐾”
“They have been amazing both times we used them. we went for a weekend beach trip and Shadow was excited to see them at drop off. He was so happy there and happy when we picked him up. Their kiddos play with him so he feels at home. We will use them in the future whenever we visit.”
“I had to go out of town last minute and booked the weekend for Wendy to watch my pup at her house and she was fantastic! Wendy was very responsive to my texts and very flexible with timing of pick up and drop off. While I was gone, she sent me lots of pictures and kept me updated. Her daughter loved my pup as well and spent lots of time and attention with him. She has a nice backyard and two sweet beagles. My pup loved it there so much that he tried to run back upstairs when I went to go pick him up. Will definitely book with her again next time I'm in need of a sitter!”
“Stephanie was amazing! She is super sweet, communicative, and kept us updated on how our pups were doing during our week long vacation. We felt super comfortable knowing our girls were going to be well taken care of as soon as they entered the gates of her home. I would definitely contact Stephanie if and when we needed for our future trips.”
“Aaron was very communicative and proactive with sending updates. He made sure all the dogs got along and had their space when they needed. He really catered to my dogs needs when he was very energetic would take him on walks and even did some training with him and provided treats that he liked.Aaron has well trained and behaved dogs that got along great with my dog. My dog look like he had a really good time playing with his dogs and spending time with him. I highly recommend him and would bring my dog back.”
“Tia and her family were by far the best dog sitting accommodations we have EVER had. Her home and environment is so inviting and welcoming. Her family paid such close attention and compassion for both of our Yorkies. I was truly nervous they wouldn’t even want to come back home. We have found their home away from home going forward. Thank you Tia and family for making this such a peaceful and warm experience! See you again!”
“Anna has been amazing. She provides updates and sends pictures! My baby Kiba always looks happy and cared for while he's with her. I can tell he's in great hands with Anna.”
“Rachel was AMAZING. From the beginning she was professional and compassionate. She communicated consistently with me at all times and sent tons of photos and videos of Lesley while I was away. She was accommodating of Lesley needs and ensured her safety and comfort throughout the entire visit. Would highly recommend Rachel!”
“Abel and Alisa are amazing! It is easy to tell by the photos they sent that my fur baby was having a wonderful time at their “resort”! When we picked her up she was calm and well rested after much fun and a good night’s sleep! Thank you another wonderful experience and for making it easy to leave our pup while we’re away!”
“Fantastic sitter! Would definitely rebook and recommend to others. One of my dogs has difficulties with new people but within 2 min she was happy and comfortable in their home. They were clearly very attentive to the dogs and focused on keeping them as happy as can be. A perfect backyard and a very friendly environment.”
“From beginning to end, Emily was in constant communication with me while sitting my 2 toy poodles. I had no worries or concerns because I knew my fur babies were in good hands. I will be booking again, if need be. Great experience!”
“Amy was communicative and patient with our pup, Ollie. She sent update pictures which the kids were excited for and put our minds at ease. We would definitely book with Amy again!”

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.
92% of sitters in Elmendorf 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 Elmendorf 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 Elmendorf.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Elmendorf 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.
