“Alex & Evelyn took great care of our Australian Shepherd while we were away. They had a clean and safe atmosphere for our dog, provided plenty of updates, & were great with communication. Our dog looked very happy in the updates & looks happy now that we have picked her up. Seems like our dog already misses playing with their dog. Definitely recommend. Thank you Alex & Evelyn”
“Jared was wonderful with my 6month old puppy! He was so loving to him. He sent me lots of photos and updates which made me feel comfortable leaving my baby with him. Teddy had a great time and I will definitely use Jared again!”
“Sossi and her family are the best! She is so flexible and responsive and Cooper loves spending time there. She always sends recaps of his day and sends photos of him playing in the yard. She is are go to, trusted sitter!”
“Marissa was a wonderful host to my girl. I get frequent updates, pictures, and videos of my pup playing and looking happy as a clam. I felt very fortunate to have had such an awesome sitter for my dog and peace of mind while I was away. Would definitely recommend Marissa for a short or long term stay!”
“Luisa was a fantastic host for our pup! It’s clear our dog got lots of exercise and love while staying with Luisa and her partner! They spent a good bit of time introducing the dogs before we left to making sure the dogs would be comfortable together. It’s clear they have a great dog sense and deeply care about the dogs! Thanks again Luisa!!”
“Sarah was a great communicator the entire time and proactive about all logistical things! She was super flexible when I had to add an additional day of care last minute and checked in about anything she had a question about while my dog was with her. Keanu came home happy and well-cared for :)”
“Cheyanne did a great job with my rescue pitbull mix, Tiffany. Tiffany is fearful of new people, selective with other dogs, and has separation anxiety. Cheyanne was extremely patient with her and made her feel right at home.”
“Ryan was great, super communicative and easy to schedule with. Had some flight delays coming back and he was able to watch Cooper for an extra night on short notice which was greatly appreciated”
“Elizabeth was wonderful with Willow while I was away. She gave her great care and attention, and it made me so happy knowing Willow got her social fix playing with other dogs. I had total peace of mind the whole time, and came home to a very happy, content pup.”
“Luliia took care of my dog, Sly, over Christmas while I was out of town and was very kind and caring with him. She was very attentive about his care instructions which made me feel at ease. She made sure he got a lot of exercise and sent me multiple updates per day. Her son was also very helpful with Sly. Sly was very calm and happy when I picked him up. Thank you Luliia!”
“Amber was very easy to communicate with, always answered within minutes. She sent pictures and updates, which were especially appreciated since our dog doesn't like fireworks, and she watched him over the 4th of July. She gave us great feedback on his behavior, and I would definitely ask her to watch our dog again.”
“Jillian and Clayton were amazing for our dog’s first stay with them! They sent great photo updates, and our dog made new friends at their place. We felt totally at ease and will definitely book again!”
“Cassandra and Jason were great at communicating and giving me updates about how my pup was doing! He can be an anxious and high energy dog, but he seemed so happy and relaxed during his recent stay. Will definitely rebook for future trips!”
“They were so sweet! Sent pictures each day and when I ran late getting back They offered to keep her an extra night. They also woke up at 130 am so that I could pick her up because I didnt want to spend another night without her!! Amazing sitters.”
“Denise took wonderful care of Banjo! She was kind, flexible, communicative, and made everything easy from start to finish. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. I'd happily book with her again!”
“Jr J took such a good care of my doggo Churro. Zhalee is playful and friendly. Loved watching the shared photos and videos throughout the stay. Churro would be so eager to stay with this dog daughter duo on next vacation!”
“5 stars is not enough! Yan kept me updated at all times and my dogs were SO happy they didn’t want to get in the car to come home. They had so much fun and I had so much peace of mind, Yan is amazing!”

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 Elroy 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 Elroy.
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 Elroy 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.
