“Truly the best! Super recommended. Milo felt completely at home, and I was so happy and at peace knowing he was in such loving and responsible hands. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which made me feel very reassured. You can tell she genuinely cares for pets as if they were her own. I would definitely trust her with Milo again without hesitation!”

From the very beginning, she gave me complete peace of mind with her experience, availability, and genuine love for caring for dogs. While I was away, I felt confident knowing my dogs were in a safe, calm, and loving environment. It was clear they were well cared for and received plenty of affection. I truly appreciate everything Cora did for them, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommended!”

“Liron was AMAZING! She sent me multiple pictures and videos throughout Ace’s stay. He had so much fun playing he was super tired when he got back home. She even went to the extent of extending Ace’s stay with a short notice. I will definitely be using her in the future!”
“We had a great boarding experience with Mrs. Piyaon! She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog has weak back legs, so walking on hard floors can be difficult for him. She was so thoughtful and placed rugs all over her house to make it easier for him to walk around. We really appreciate how much care and consideration she showed. We’ve already booked another stay with her and would absolutely recommend her!”
“My dog loved her stay with Beatriz! ❤️ She enjoyed being loved on and having people to play with! Beatriz was amazing and never failed to send me updates and photos on how my Moxie girl was doing. Will book again! 10/10”
“Amanda was a dream looking after our 3 year old border terrier! Our pup loved running around the garden and playing with other furry friends. Amanda even managed to wear him out which is not easy to do! Amanda sent loads of updates throughout the stay including photos and videos which was fantastic! Would definitely recommend her!”
“Vicki was so helpful and accommodating during the time she took care of my 1 year old Rattie, Max. She kept us up to date and sent pictures regularly which made my time away from my precious fur baby much easier knowing he was happy and well cared for. Would definitely rebook again whenever needed. Very kind and sweet sitter; highly recommend! :)”
“Thank goodness for Kristy. She was recommended to me by my other sitter who was unavailable. I was so nervous leaving my doggy for a week just after she had to have surgery for the first time. Kristy was very attentive to her needs and was able to help her through her recovery just the way she needed. I received daily updates from her, which made me feel so much better! I would recommend her to anyone looking to have their pet stay in a loved, relaxing home. Thank you Kristy!”
“America did an amazing job taking care of my dog. My dog is usually guarded around strangers, but America made him feel comfortable during the initial meet and greet. She sent me daily updates with photos and videos. I would highly recommend America to anyone in need of a reliable sitter, and I will definitely use her services again in the future!”
“Our dog apparently had a great sleepover because she was tired when she got home. Such a great service to have an overnight dogsitter in a pinch. Will definitely use them again ”

I received photos and videos in the rover app and by text that made me feel good knowing that my dog was in the best place and with the right people. Next time I will need dog sitting, I will not hesitate to call Alejandro and Keyla ... They are the best!!!”
“Amazing hosts and kept me updated the entire time. I was so happy with their service and am definitely going to keep coming back: I couldn’t ask for a better boarding experience: Above and beyond for my fur babies! Thank you so much.”

I had an exceptional experience with Me Ara From the moment we arrived, it was clear our pet would be in great hands. Communication was excellent, and we received regular updates that gave me peace of mind. Her home was very clean and well-maintained, which made me feel even more comfortable. She also have a huge yard, perfect for exercise and playtime. My pet came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I truly appreciate the attention, patience, and love shown throughout the stay. I would absolutely recommend Ms Ara to anyone looking for a safe, caring, and comfortable environment for their pet. 🐾✨

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 Foster 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 Foster.
<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 Foster 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.
