“Angelo is an exceptional pet sitter who truly goes the extra mile. He creates a calm, comfortable space for every pet in his care, and his thoughtful updates are incredibly reassuring. It’s clear he genuinely cares—his attention, kindness, and dedication make all the difference. I always felt completely at ease when our Bella stayed with him. Highly recommend!”
“Theo was in great hands. His family treated him like part of the family. He even got to sleep with the youngest daughter and I’m sure he loved that. I’ll definitely be booking again, if they will have him. They sent photos and answered all my questions when asked. Definitely recommend them.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my calm, patient approach and my focus on understanding each dog’s individual needs. I have hands-on experience with both puppies and senior dogs—everything from basic puppy training and crate introduction to administering medications, monitoring mobility, and providing extra comfort for pets. I’m attentive, reliable, and always communicate clearly with owners so you feel connected and confident while you’re away. Pet care is naturally built into my daily routine. I schedule my day around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention. Throughout the week, I plan my errands and commitments so I’m always available for regular routines, medication schedules, or extra exercise when needed. Caring for pets isn’t something I fit around my life—it’s a core part of my day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines as closely as possible—meal times, walking routes, training rules, and household preferences. I maintain a clean, comfortable environment, provide lots of companionship, and send regular updates so owners feel connected. My goal is always to help pets feel secure and maintain their normal rhythm whether they’re with me or I’m with them

About: Hi! We're Ashley and Chantelle, a dependable animal-loving couple who treats every pet like family. One of the biggest benefits of booking with us is that Ashley works from home, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. We're also proud pet parents to two dogs of our own—Mylo, who is 8 years old, and Rose, who is 3. Caring for them every day has given us firsthand experience with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and the love and attention dogs need to thrive. We enjoy staying active and providing walks, playtime, belly rubs, and lots of affection. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or senior, we'll follow their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. We believe in reliable communication and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands. We believe pets are family. Unless requested by the owner, dogs are not kenneled and are free to relax, play, and enjoy our home just like our own dogs, Mylo and Rose. We look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. Ashley works from home, so pets are supervised and cared for throughout the day with plenty of attention, potty breaks, companionship, feeding, walks, and playtime. After Chantelle gets off work, we continue walks, play, and care together, making sure pets receive consistent love, structure, and attention throughout the day. We prioritize safety, trust, and a calm, pet-friendly environment. At our home, we have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and supervised play. Pets in our care are treated like family and are never left unattended during outdoor time. We maintain a clean, comfortable space where pets can relax and feel at ease. Dog daycare is also available in our home with plenty of supervision, attention, and care throughout the day.

Aislyn & Carson were great host for my standard poodle. They were accommodating with a last-minute boarding request and made leaving comfortable and smooth. Aislyn had great communication with us and sent pictures throughout our time gone. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a caring sitter!
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!!
Clara did an amazing job taking care of our elderly dog while we were gone for 10 days. She sent us pictures regularly and updates of what he was up to. I know it wasn’t an easy task because he needs a lot of attention. Clara also is very nice and respectful and we appreciate her for taking care of our little Tyson.

There are 301 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Galveston. About 92% 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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
