“I normally don’t do reviews but when I do it means you will always have my service. Let me just start off by saying how outgoing, punctual, consistent, and caring Johnathan was/is! I contacted him last minute to babysit my fur son and was actually hesitant to leave him but once i saw the pictures and videos he sent I was at ease. Kobe is a very active dog and will show if he’s uncomfortable around u but the moment he sensed Johnathan I knew he was gone be ok. I will look no further when I need someone to look after him. He have my business anytime. Thanks again John! You’re the best.”
“Amazing experience from start to end! I usually am a bit weary with my dog getting older and seemingly more crankier so at first I was a bit hesitant with leaving her in the home with other dogs. Alessandra suggested we do a meet and greet at a dog park with her dogs and found that their personalities were very compatible! This made me feel significantly more comfortable for the boarding that we did! My pup was extremely comfortable the entire stay and had zero instances of her feeling out of place and even got to see here sleeping on her back which she only does in a place she feels comfortable in! I will be a repeat customer for sure and recommend anyone to also choose Alexandra as their rover.”
“I am so grateful for Kristi! Our dogs are in good hands when we leave them with her. I am stress free and I know that they will get a good care while we are away!”
“Great sitter who took wonderful care of my dog for 9 days and went above and beyond, especially when she wasn’t eating. Very professional, caring, and helpful throughout the entire stay, which gave us great peace of mind. She also had plenty of other dogs around for my dog to play and socialize with, making it a fun and active stay!”
“Krystal was great! We were visiting from out of town and wanted a chill place for our pup for a few days! Sweet Dee enjoyed her stay and had lots of fun with Krystal and her pup. We will definitely use Krystal again when visiting the area!”
“Steph did a great job taking care of our pups. She sent plenty of pictures and high quality ones at that! I was never worried about leaving our puppies there for a second. She is clearly very loving, thoughtful and responsible. Her house is very clean and the backyard has plenty of room to run around.”
“Jessica and Brian were amazing and exceeded expectations in every way. I left my pit bull, Clara, with them for two days while my sister got married in Fort Worth. Jessica was quick with communication and sent tons of pictures while Clara was staying with her. They have a huge fenced backyard, which Clara loved exploring. Jessica was very respectful with any special requests or instructions. Jessica and Brian are HUGE dog lovers, and I could tell Clara got a ton of love while she was staying with them. They were exceptional in every way...if I ever need a place for Clara to stay in DFW again, I will be be crossing my fingers that they're available!”
“My boy had the best time with Mary and Robert! Lots of walks, cuddles, play time, and naps. Mary responded very promptly with photos whenever I reached out to check on Danny. I brought home a happy and healthy boy, would definitely book with them again!”
“Alexis and her family really care for your pets well being. They make sure that all their needs are managed. Getting the pictures and updates are a bonus! I will book again!”
“Great friendly and easy to book! We just moved to this area and found this couple super quick and they are only 5 mins from our home!! Lilo has great time”
“Kristen is a wonderful human. She took in my old girl for a couple days. She made traveling so easy. She is caring, kind and I wouldn’t want anyone else to take my pup in. Highly recommend.”
About: Hey there! I grew up riding horses on a farm, with numerous dogs, horses, and cats. I have 2 cats and 2 horses of my own. I currently dog,cat,horse,goat, you name it, sit in the area, but am always wanting more dog time!; I work full time as a Sales Operations Manager 8AM-5PM remote Monday through Friday, so have the flexibility to check on your babies during the day as well! I'm a fireball of energy and will ensure they are taken care of as my own. Rest assured, I'll spoil your fur babies to no end. I'm so excited to get to know your fur baby. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions you might have! I do work full time, but remote with a flexible schedule so have the availability to come during the day and care for your fur babies I do not let the pups out of my sight and welcome all the cat cuddles (as one of my furbabies is making biscuits on my leg right now). I play with them, make sure they eat their food and drink water. No one wants your pets safer than me so they can greet you when you return
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ She was AMAZING with all three of my dogs!! 🐾❤️ I seriously couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She communicated with me the entire time, kept me updated, and made me feel completely at ease while they were with her. My dogs had an absolute BLAST and were so happy and well cared for! I will 100% be booking with her again. Highly, highly recommend!! ❤️🐶”
“I'm so grateful I came across Alli to care for my baby girl! Alli is kind, attentive, and trustworthy. She sent updates and tons of pictures every day, and when I picked my pup up, she had a small gift and a sweet note for me. My dog struggles with anxiety, so leaving her is never easy, but I was able to enjoy my trip with complete peace of mind knowing she was safe and loved. I can't recommend Alli enough!”
About: I’ve grown up with two family dogs and have years of hands-on experience caring for them. I also work in a healthcare setting with therapy dogs, so I’m comfortable around dogs of all temperaments. I’ve looked after friends’ pets on multiple occasions and love giving dogs the attention and care they deserve. I work Monday-Friday with flexible hours typically 8-2. I can provide your dog with a long walk or whatever care they need before and after work. I’m available on weekends and during the week. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I stick to their usual routines as much as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and rest—to minimize stress. I always supervise interactions, provide plenty of affection, and ensure they have access to fresh water, toys, and a cozy place to relax. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all provided instructions carefully. I maintain the pet’s routine, give updates if requested, and make sure the home is just as I found it. My goal is to keep pets happy, healthy, and relaxed—whether they’re with me or in their own familiar space.
“Sierra was amazing with my dog! She took such good care of him and always kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell she really cared, and I’m so grateful for how attentive and loving she was. Highly recommend her with no doubts!!”
“Sarah and her family were the best. This was my first time using the rover app. I was referred by a friend and I was definitely very nervous in the beginning. We had to book the reservation last minute but the process was extremely smooth. We have never had to ask anyone other than family to look after cookie while we travel. Needless to say even with a few mishaps with cookie getting adjusted Sarah and her family handled cookie with absolute love and care. I was updated with pictures and that made my family and I feel even more at ease. I will definitely be using Sarah again as long and her and her family allows cookie to be a guest again. Thanks again we greatly appreciate the help. I would highly recommend Sarah.”
“She took good care of my dog! She sent me some photos and let me know how he was doing which was very nice.I’d definitely keep her in mind for next boarding:))”

Kathryn was very thorough in her communication, and I felt very comfortable leaving Virgil in her care! I could tell in photos she sent that he was relaxed in a new environment. I appreciated her getting him out and about despite his issues with leash reactivity. Look forward to booking her for care again.
I was so nervous to leave my girls for an extended period of time. I prepped them days in advance so they wouldn’t be afraid to go to someone new. Alex shows up and the sprinted to him, jumped in the backseat of his car, and immediately made themselves right at home. Throughout my work trip, I received pictures and updates. He was fantastic, highly recommend.
I had a great experience at Krystal’s while I was out of town over the 4th of July weekend. She sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. My 3 year old golden, Magnolia, was clearly well cared for and had a great time, I picked up a very tired pup! I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.
We loved Mercy and her family. My dog is a recent addition to my family and we were apprehensive about leaving on a 3 day trip without her. Mercy invited us for a meet and greet beforehand and we felt our dog would be in good hands with them. We received many pictures and updates everyday along with perfect communication from Mercy.
Eddy was absolutely fantastic with my dog! From the moment they met, my dog fell in love with him. By the end of the stay, I think my dog barely wanted to come home with me! Eddy kept me updated with pictures throughout the entire time, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that he genuinely cared for my dog and made sure she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend Eddy to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet.
Booked with Danielle and did not regret it. This is the first time we have left our little fur baby with someone since he was born. Danielle took very good care of our boy and treated him lile part of the family. He was taken for walks and had play and cuddle time every day. The communication and daily photos with updates definately put our minds at ease and was instrumental in the two of us actually getting to enjoy a trip away without having to worry. She treated our little guy with the love and attention as if we were there with him and that was priceless. Knowing we can spend time away and our fur baby is loved and cherished while we are gone is everything when you want to try to enjoy your own time away. I can't speak any more highly of the services Danielle gave or the freedom she has given us to enjoy ourselves knowing our little guy is in good hands. Do not sleep on this girl! She embodies the love you would want your little one to be surrounded by. We are so grateful. A must hire!
Celia thank you so much for watching Penny for us. For others looking for sitters, I would highly recommend Celia. She was very attentive to Penny for an extended weekend during which she provided excellent care, lots of cuddles, and lots of updates on how Penny was doing / adapting to being with her. She even provided a personalized & fun review for Penny on how she did which was incredibly thoughtful. Thank you so much again!!
Amazing experience! Stella came home happy and clearly well‑loved. She probably can’t wait to go back! Meredith sent great updates and photos throughout the stay, and communication was super fast. I felt totally at ease the whole time. I’ll definitely rebook with her!
I had a wonderful experience with Crystal. She was incredibly responsive, which made the booking process, pick up and drop off smooth. The care my pet received was exceptional; I can tell Crystal and her family truly love animals and treated my fur child like their own. Crystal was super friendly and kept me updated with photos, videos, and messages throughout the stay. I will definitely be booking with Crystal again and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Fort Worth is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $55 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
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.
96% of sitters in Fort Worth 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 Fort Worth 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 Fort Worth.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fort Worth. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Fort Worth 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
