“My fur babies loved Aushi! Her backyard is spacious enough for the dogs to run around. She provided updates while I was out of town. My dogs were super tired when I picked them up, so I can tell they enjoyed their stay! 🤍”

“Charlene took great care of our puppy, Lola, while I was away. It's clear that they have a genuine love for animals, and Lola seemed so happy and comfortable in their care. They sent regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease knowing my fur baby was in good hands. I highly recommend Charlene anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. I'll definitely be booking again in the future!”

Absolutely Amazing family to leave your babies with. I had constant updates and pictures/videos. My pups were treated like family in their home🩵🩷 We were delayed on our flight and went way past pickup time and they were so understanding and helpful. We are all so in love with this sitter family!

Highly recommend to the fullest! Ms. Erica was so amazing with Dolly! I had never left Dolly before (with anyone or overnight). I was so scared and then we connected with Erica. She is kind and very compassionate with dahlia. She would send me updates throughout the day which I loved! I received photos! And so much love being sent! Erica is Sitter sent from above! Trust her! She’s so phenomenal to say the minimum!!!! I will always ask her first!!!!

I highly recommend Ian and his family for providing a safe, engaging and loving home for any dog! We left our 2 year old German Shepherd mix for almost a week while we traveled over the holidays and he thrived in their care. Every request we had for his care was meticulously provided and so much more… I’m surprised our dog wanted to come home to us! Photo and video updates daily insured us of our dog’s wellbeing and allowed us to not worry about him at all. We’d give a rating of 10 stars if it was possible! Thanks, Ian!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Gun Barrel City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Gun Barrel City is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $61 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 95 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Gun Barrel City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

95% of sitters in Gun Barrel City 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 Gun Barrel City home-away-from-home, 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 Gun Barrel City.

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.

You and your Gun Barrel City 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 , 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 .

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.
