“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 took absolutely amazing care of our pup while we were away, giving us total peace of mind. Alexis sent us updates multiple times a day, complete with photos and videos that showed just how happy and comfortable our dog was with her. It was clear that she treated our dog like one of her own, giving them tons of attention, affection, and playtime. We are so grateful for the love and care she gave, and we’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend Alexis to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and truly wonderful to care for your furry family member!”

About: My dog is crate trained, potty trained, tricks, and her recall is immaculate. Im not a professional but these things are very important to me. Your dog will be in great hands … we enjoy play dates ! Im working part time - so my availability will mostly be night shifts any day of the week ! 4- 9:30 my off days im free anytime I have two dog parks in my apartments so we just enjoy being outside when it cools down. We love to play, train (not a professional) , and give lots of natural treats lol!!
“Jessica was beyond nice and very attentive with Xena. She kept me updated while Xena was in her care with pictures of her, due to her first time being dog sat. Would definitely recommend!”
“Jessica was fabulous! She was accommodating and very good about sending me updates and pictures. My dog had a wonderful time at her house. I will use her again and highly recommend her.”
About: Experienced dog sitting all size dogs! Pitbulls, waimeraners, labs, wiener dogs etc. I love to go on walks and runs if possible! This past summer I consistently watched 4 dogs (from the same family) and had a great time! I frequently volunteer at the animal shelter but don’t have any pets of my own just yet! New to Fort Worth and looking forward to meeting you and your dog:) As of right now I am helping out at my boyfriends business but working from home- meaning I am available all day to take care of your pet whether at my home or coming to you. I live in a dog friendly apartment building along the trinity trails! These trails are perfect for dog walking and provide ample shade. The dog is welcome in all rooms of our place. At a clients home, I make sure to go over any guidelines with the owner to establish the rules and routines of their space- I only aim to help out never to impose!
“Darren and his family took great care of Teddy! Darren made sure Ted took his allergy medicine, and we loved getting the pictures of the kids interacting with our pup! We would be happy to book with Darren again.”
“Thanks Again...This is our second time having Aimee care for Lilly. I appreciated Aimee's heart to make Lilly feel safe and welcome. She even reached out to find out if Lilly sleeps on the bed or on the floor in her bed. 😊We will definitely see Aimee and Remie (her pet) again.!!!”
“Kenyata was awesome !!! I recommend her to everyone . She sent me pictures (really good ones at that ) without me asking for pictures on vacation and she kept me up to date with a behavioral report. I was very happy about that . My puppy went there with an itch and since I got her she has not had an itch fit . My pup came back so happy Kenyata and her beautiful little girl gave her a lot of attention . She also really worked with me to meet my needs. I had to leave town at 3am and she stayed up to wait for my pup till 2am !! Thanks Kenyata !!”
“Shawndra was amazing! Very responsive and sent pictures throughout Gizmo’s stay. I felt very comfortable with her. He also learned how to use a doggy door :) I would definitely use her again and highly recommend!! Thank you again!”

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 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.
