No children at home so your pets will be spoiled. I specialize in taking care of senior animals and giving them meds. I have a large fenced in yard for your dog, I've adopted many animals over the years and will treat your pets like my own.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love and personalized attention for each pet, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for like part of my own family. I also focus on clear communication with pet owners to keep them updated and at ease. Currently graduated from highschool and the thing i enjoy most is animals! I have two maltipoos in my home and i am their main care taker but just meeting new dogs brightens up my day. It’s not about the money when it comes to pet care, it’s getting to spread my love to other animals! I make sure to keep pets comfortable and calm by sticking to their usual routine, giving them lots of love, playtime, and exercise. Whether they’re at my place or yours, I follow any special care instructions closely and keep the environment safe and clean. I also update you regularly so you know your pets are happy and well cared for.
“Emily B. and family took impeccable care of our two dogs. We received frequent picture and video updates, and the whole process was amazingly simple. We were able to be out of the country knowing Ranger and Winnie would be loved and cared for.”
About: I've been taking of all kinds of animals since well my whole life. I adore all the kinds... lol 💗 I've had reptiles and turtles as well as the cats and dogs. I can teach basic puppy training. I have had experience for caring for kittens and puppies who have needed bottle care. I'm pretty open and looking for something to add to the list of gigs and whats better the doing something you love. Let's chat. Be well. Animals are just diffrent kinds of babies. All have their own personality. I like to learn from my pet parents their preferences. And then Adpt.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care provided for my dog, Bella! Erica and family were incredibly friendly and kept me updated throughout her stay with frequent photos, giving me complete peace of mind. Bella was visibly happy, well-cared for, and completely at ease. I highly recommend their services to any pet owner and will definitely be booking again!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with 20+ years of hands-on pet care. I provide walks that are safe, structured, and tailored to your dog’s personality—whether they’re high-energy and need a steady pace, or more sensitive and do best with a calm, reassuring approach. I pay attention to the details that matter: leash safety, hydration, heat awareness, paw checks, and reading body language so your dog feels secure and understood. I’m patient with shy or anxious dogs, gentle with seniors, and consistent with dogs who thrive on routine. You’ll always know your dog is in good hands. I communicate clearly and treat your pet like family—so you can relax knowing they’re being cared for with love, respect, and reliability. If you’re looking for someone you can trust—who shows up, stays attentive, and truly cares—I’d love to meet you and your pup. My schedule allows me to provide dependable, attentive care and flexible walk times throughout the week. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks, as well as weekend care. Because I keep my schedule balanced, I’m able to give each dog calm, focused attention and unrushed care. Whether your pup needs a consistent routine or occasional help, I work with you to create a schedule that keeps them comfortable and secure. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I use secure leash handling, remain alert to surroundings, and adjust pace and distance based on weather, energy level, and your dog’s needs. I carefully follow feeding, medication, and routine instructions to maintain consistency and reduce stress. I create a calm, structured environment where dogs feel safe and understood. I’m attentive to body language and behavior, which helps prevent overstimulation and supports anxious or sensitive pets. You can expect reliable care, clear communication, and a trustworthy presence in your home.
About: Hi My Name is Tammy Tepera. What sets me apart from other sitters is that I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to pet care. Every dog has their own personality, needs, routines, and little quirks, and I take the time to get to know each one. I offer personalized care for pets from only one family at a time. This means your fur babies receive my undivided attention without having to share their space with unfamiliar dogs. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I’ve also cared for sick pets and have experience administering insulin injections to a diabetic pet. I understand anxiety and separation anxiety firsthand. One of my own dogs struggled with severe separation anxiety when I first adopted her, so I know how important patience, reassurance, and consistency can be when helping a dog feel safe and comfortable. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and understand that some dogs need extra encouragement and reassurance, while others are ready to play from the moment they arrive! I’m also flexible, offering care in my home or yours, including overnight stays. I believe maintaining familiar routines, providing a comfortable environment, and keeping pet parents updated are all important parts of great pet care. Most importantly, I treat every pet as an individual and every family with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I’m not looking to care for the most pets. I’m looking to give the pets I care for the best experience possible. ❤️🐾 Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make a priority in my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around the pets in my care rather than fitting them into a busy schedule. I make sure there’s plenty of time for morning potty breaks, meals, walks, outdoor playtime, attention, and cuddles throughout the day. I also allow time for rest and relaxation because I understand that every dog has different needs and energy levels. For overnight boarding, I’m able to provide a comfortable home environment and maintain your pet’s normal bedtime routine. I’m also available for overnight stays in your home when that’s the best option for your pet. I believe pets deserve consistency, patience, and attention, and I make sure they receive all three. Your fur baby will never feel like an inconvenience or an afterthought. They’ll be part of my day everyday they stay with me! ❤️🐾 My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours. ❤️ One Family at a Time. A Home, Not a Kennel. Love Like They’re My Own. I believe dogs are happiest and safest when they’re not placed in unfamiliar situations with dogs they don’t know. That’s why I choose to care for pets from only one family at a time. This allows me to give your fur babies my undivided attention without the stress of introductions to unfamiliar dogs. Boarding in My Home Your dog will enjoy a comfortable, relaxed home environment with plenty of love, attention, and room to play. My home has a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor playtime, along with cozy places to relax and feel at home. Pet Sitting in Your Home I’m also happy to care for your pets in their own familiar surroundings, including overnight stays. I’ll follow their regular routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions to help keep them happy and comfortable while you’re away. Even Bedtime Is Family Time! I understand that routines don’t stop when your pet leaves home. If your dog is used to sleeping in bed with their family, they’re welcome to snuggle up with me, too! If they prefer their own bed, that’s perfectly fine. I’ll do my best to maintain their normal bedtime routine so they feel safe and secure. I believe communication is important, so you’ll receive regular updates and pictures to let you know how your fur babies are doing. For everyone’s safety, I do not accept dogs who are in heat. Your pets aren’t just another booking. They’re family, and I’ll treat them that way. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your babies are receiving the same love, patience, and attention they’d get at home. Because being away from home is a little easier when some things still feel like home. ❤️🐾
About: I am here to take your pup from playtime to public access ready! We will walk and train simultaneously, extending endurance, geography, vocabulary, walking form, attitude, and responsiveness. We reinforce basic obedience, manners, commands, and tricks in a supportive, pawsitive environment using the same methods used to train professional working dogs. I am full-time hands on, so your pooch can join us as we trick, treat, and train! Public access practice, dog parks, nature trails, and home-based training all are daily practices. I have a large apartment that is easily subdivided to separate pets for chill time. We have play space, can crate, and can create a separate dog room. Pets are never given human food, but have consistent fresh water. Great sensitivity is given to temperature and texture of the ground to protect your pups paws. Each dog has their own energy level and exercise requirements, and we will tailor your dog's walks to their personal fitness.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life, but about eight years ago, when I got my service dog, I began taking my role as a dog owner even more seriously. That experience taught me so much about being attentive, responsible, and understanding of a dog’s individual needs. Even though he’s no longer with me, I still carry that experience with me and promise to provide every dog in my care with the same patience, attention, and love I would give my own. I work a full-time 9–5 job, but I’m very flexible outside of those hours. I’m available for overnight boarding and weekends, and I can also accommodate daytime check-ins when needed. I live alone in a one-bedroom apartment with no other pets, so your pet can have my full attention in a calm and comfortable environment. While I don’t have a yard, I’m happy to provide walks and outdoor time as often as needed. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me.
About: I have loved and cared for all kinds of pets my entire life, and have had both cats and dogs. I currently have three cats! I will love and care for your pets as my own. Pet care is already built into my daily routine, as I take care of my own three cats! I can easily work your pets routine into mine as well. I will love and care for your pets as my own! My household is not only animal friendly, my cats essentially run my household! They will be a part of our family.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Galveston is $35
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Galveston
Heidi was absolutely wonderful with my Lulu! She invited me in and showed me where Lulu would be staying, which made me feel really comfortable leaving her there. Heidi was so sweet and caring, and I could tell right away that she genuinely loves dogs. Lulu was happy and well taken care of, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. I would definitely use Heidi again and highly recommend her! She really helped me when she accepted my request at a short notice.
Thank you so much for caring for Mabel while I had to travel out of town. I’m so happy she was with someone that loved and cared for her. She is not used to being alone and Sherry was the perfect fit since she is a stay at home mom. I would definitely recommend Sherry and would use her again if I needed a sitter
Aislyn has taken wonderful care of our golden retriever twice now. She has a pet friendly home and it’s obvious she treats our baby like her own! Her dog and cat are super friendly and get along great with ours. We really appreciate the frequent check ins with pictures and video updates. Highly recommend Aislyn & Carson!!
Haylie was great with our three little, energetic dogs. She was punctual and a great communicator. Haylie kept them busy, and sent photos. She checked in with questions and updates, and also kept them happy. They were smiling and enjoying their time, as you could see in the photos. I felt confident leaving the dogs with Haylie, and would certainly use her services again. Thank you!
Meghan will be my go-to for all future dog sitting. She took care of my pups as if they were her own. She’s extremely conscientious and caring, as well as professional. My pups loved her and that is part of my litmus test. You cannot go wrong with Meghan in charge!!

There are 293 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Galveston. About 94% of Galveston sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
