About: My home is a purrfect safe haven for the highest energy felines to the cat-atonic chunkers. My home is also a great choice for small to medium dogs that enjoy endless attention from young kids. As a stay at home mom my schedule is very open, I'm willing to work around your needs to ensure both you and your fur baby are happy. I have a seperate room for pets that prefer to be alone, extra toys and beds. As well as a fenced yard and walking paths just outside my back door. I love all animals and guarantee they will be spoiled and loved in my care. Whether that be for a drop in visit, a walk around the park, or an overnight stay. Let me know if you have any questions! I would love to go over your pets needs and get them scheduled in for their next vacation.
About: Training puppies and learning different personalities is fun for me. I have a lot of energy, one of my favorite things to do with my doberman is going on runs and exploring the outdoors. I'm a full time online student. I'm mainly at home so I will be flexible to cater to your dogs needs. I can drop in any hours of the day and house sit. I love fitness and staying active so walking and exercising a high energy dog will be no problem :) I am adaptable and learn animals really quick In my home pets will be able to play outside and inside and have a comfortable stay, your pup will be very loved and cared for! We have two dogs and a decent sized yard. My doberman is very playful.
About: I love my dogs and I will love yours to!! Your family member will have a great place to stay, and somebody to play with. They will be well taken care of and have everything they will need, food, water, outside, pet scratches, and belly rubs. We will be taking walks in a lovely neighborhood and spend some time at the park. You may not want them to stay to long or they may not want to go home. I look forward to taking in your family members while you are out of town or taking care of business. Either way you can rest easy knowing your beloved animals are here with me and in a safe place, I will be more than happy to do so! Thank you for your time and hope I’m a good match for you and your fur babies. I currently have free time at my home so I would love to spend some time with a friendly pet. I am currently a stay at home mom. I like to give attention when attention is needed to pets. If they want to play I will play with them or if they need to go out to potty, I will take them out. Anything your pet needs I will be there.
About: What makes me different from other sitters is that I naturally include training in my time with dogs. Even small things—like impulse control, manners, or minor behavioral habits—can make a big difference, and I love turning training into play. I especially enjoy working with puppies! They’re so smart, curious, and always up for a challenge. With your permission, I can help your pup start off on the right paw. Of course, if your dog just wants playtime and cuddles, I’m more than happy to provide that too. My goal is always to meet your dog’s needs and make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while in my care. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which means I can give plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m also available on weekends—so whether you’re heading out for a movie, a night out, or just need some time to relax, I’ll be there to make sure your furry companion is safe, happy, and well cared for. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I pay close attention to body language and always put each dog’s needs first. I do have a 3-year-old son who loves to run around, but he also knows to give dogs their space if they don’t want to play. I also share my home with a 3-year-old chocolate Lab. He’s a very sweet, easygoing boy who does great with puppies, cats, and older dogs. If your dog isn’t comfortable around others or prefers crate time, I’m happy to adjust. I can separate him and do rotational play so that your pup feels safe and cared for.
“This is our second time using Amy’s service and we are so pleased with her. Our pup ran right inside like he was home which was exciting for me to see. I can tell he’s treated well and he LOVES her pup, T-Rex. They can play all day. 😄”
“Ms. Shannon is so nice and accommodating! She immediately agreed to watch our dog and kept us updated during his stay. We look forward to keep using her services in the near future and highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“Pamela is the best! I am so glad I booked with her and I highly and strongly recommend her! My dog has anxiety, barks at everything she sees and hears and I did not think she would get along with any other animals. However, Pamela introduced her to another adorable, sweet furbaby and they were all like bffs!! Lol. I was so impressed and I couldn’t believe my dog can actually be around/near other dogs. It made my work trip stress-free not having to worry about her and I couldn’t be more thankful! She responded so quickly, cares about my furbaby like she was her own, spoiled her & gave her all the attention my needy baby wanted lol. Pamela also sent me updates, took cute pics/videos, and she was so sweet and accommodating! My dog can’t obviously talk lol but it seems like she loved every minute being there and had the best time. I almost think she did not want me to take her home lol. If only she was in the city I live, I would definitely be booking more days with her. I couldn’t thank her enough!!”

You can tell Max takes fantastic care of the dogs, and I have zero worries whenever my little dude is in his care.”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Elmendorf commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 942 sitters in Elmendorf, 89% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
