“Martie is great! This was our first experience using Rover to find boarding for our pup and we are so glad we found Martie. After our meet and greet I wasn't feeling nervous about leaving our pup in her care, and we got daily pictures of him hanging out and socializing with other dogs. We will definitely be booking again for our next trip! Thanks Martie!”

About: What sets me apart is the space and care I provide. I live on 2.5 acres, giving dogs plenty of room to safely explore, play, and burn off energy. As both a lifelong dog and horse lover, I’m comfortable caring for animals of all sizes and personalities. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, energy level, and preferences to help them feel at home. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family, providing lots of attention, playtime, and affection while keeping owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Whether your dog loves to run, relax, or just wants extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care in a safe, country setting. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because I’m a stay-at-home mom to my toddler. Being home throughout the day allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, regular exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive lots of love and supervision in a calm, family-oriented environment. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I love incorporating them into our daily routine! In my home, pets have plenty of room to play and explore on our property while always being supervised. I provide a clean, alm environment with lots of attention, playtime, and affction so they feel like part of the family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the home and the pet’s routine. I make sure your pet gets the care, exercise, and companionship they’re used to while keeping your home clean and secure. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Reynaldo did an amazing job watching my German shepherd! They were attentive, caring, and made sure Rocky felt comfortable and happy the whole time. I received regular updates and photos, which reassured me that he was in great hands. It’s clear Reynaldo has a lot of experience with large breeds and understands their energy levels and needs. I’d absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a responsible and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“This was the first time I had to leave my dog with someone. From drop off to pick up Tanya made me and Shimmy feel like family! She also provided daily updates! Put me at ease the whole time I was away.”

“Alicia did an amazing job taking care of Presley. My pup is big, hyper and a bit of a handful but Alicia made it work. I stayed at a place where there were no dogs allowed on the property so I tried a sitter at South Padre Island. That sitter called me late and told me she couldn't handle Presley. Luckily I was able to find such an experienced, dog loving sitter in Alicia. I spoke to her and let her know my situation and she offered to meet me more than halfway so I wouldn't miss too much time away from my weekend getaway with my family. She sent me pictures the next day of Presley playing fetch and I felt comfortable knowing my pup was enjoying his weekend as much as I was. I definitely recommend her to anyone needing dog boarding or sitting. Thank you so much Alicia and will definitely contact you next time I need boarding for Presley.”
“Roxie had an amazing time!! Although, the weather wasn’t too cooperative, she enjoyed cuddling at home with Elaine’s family indoors. She went out for her routinely potty times, and selfies throughout her stay. Roxie can’t wait to return!!! Thank you so much!! :)”
“Gabriela took very good care of my pup while I was away. She kept me updated throughout the weekend with pictures and updates on Theo. He also enjoyed his stay with her. I recommend booking with her when you need a dog sitter!!”
“April was communicative and sent daily photo updates! She has a fenced in yard and her corgi is very adorable and got along well with our pup. Would use April for dog boarding again!”
“It was our very first Rover experience & Bo made it great! We had daily updates, pics & videos.communication was great! We felt super comfortable leaving our fur baby with Bo knowing she was being well taken care of. We would 10 out of 10 recommend Bo! Bo will definitely be our “go to” from now on. ❤️”
“THEY WERE SO AMAZING. Sent lot's of updates, photos, and videos. Even accommodated the fact that my flight was delayed causing me to miss my connection and was stuck in ATL overnight. Their dog is so playful and friendly which made my dog have the time of his life. They took amazing care of my dog and provided him with all his vitamins and any of his special needs were well monitored.”

Alina & her daughters were a godsend! I live 5 hours away & had a work opportunity come up. I couldn’t have done it without their help. Trust & Minou had a great time! Alina was attentive, sent me pictures & videos throughout the day & most importantly she was so loving with my pups. She treated them as if they were her own. Highly recommend! Thank you!
Destiny did an amazing job with our Puppy Fifi. She kept us informed of her daily activities and was very helpful with taking care of our little one. I can honestly say that my husband and I will be taking more trips as we feel very comfortable with having her watch Fifi.
Stephanie was absolutely fantastic with our dog, Bailey! She sent us daily photo updates where she took her walking, riding and playing with her lovely dogs which completely put our minds at ease while we were away. When we got back, Bailey was happy, calm, and well-exercised. We would book her again in a heartbeat!"

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Harlingen on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 150 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Harlingen. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
100% of Harlingen sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Harlingen landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Harlingen 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 Harlingen.
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 Harlingen 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.
