“Jackie is an AMAZING sitter. Our dogs very clearly enjoy their time with her and her family! She gives consistent updates along with great photos of the dogs throughout their stay. She also goes the extra mile to be flexible and beyond understanding as she recently watched our dogs while my wife was in the hospital. Will definitely continue to book with her.”
“Robin and her honey are awesome! I love that we always receive pictures of our fur babies. We had a little car trouble so we arrived about 15 mins late. Robin was great and accommodating. This is our second time using Rover and Robin’s services and we couldn’t be happier. Thank you, Robin!”
“Victoria and her family are one of our newest family members! Our boys loved them!!! She kept us up to date everyday for our 4 day trip on how our boys were doing, any accidents, and any of the cute things they did. She is very understanding & if anything, she just ask for you to remain in communication for early arrivals, late delays, or any information regarding your pet prior to their stay. You can see that she loves dogs from the moment she met our Fur-babies! If you want your fur babies to be cared by, by anyone, pick her!! Already booked her for our next trip out of town to care for our babies again!”
“Fernando was amazing! Sent plenty of pics of Zoe during our trip! Zoe had a great time and he took such great care of her! I definitely recommend him!”
“Wonderful pet sitters. Always provides daily updates. I feel safe when my pets are with them. One of them unfortunately got sick and they notified me immediately and provided updates.”
“Luke and Leia had another great stay with Karen. Thank you for watching them for us. We appreciate all the pictures and walks…. and the great care you take while they are with you.”
“My dog is very particular. Have tried different sitters and none really connected with Benny until Jeanelly and Wilbur! We visited them and Benny instantly connected with them in the first visit. Their home is friendly and felt like home for Benny. Very kind and commutative people.”
“Kelly is such a lovely woman and sent us lots of pics and updates of our two blue Heelers being spoiled with lots of play time. She has a beautiful, large and securely fenced property. We feel blessed to have found her on Rover.”
“Snehal was so gracious taking my needy kiddo. She welcomed Lila with open arms. Daily Snehal sent many videos and pictures with many updates. Knowing that your kiddo is being cared for like one of her was the most comforting gesture while we were on vacation. Snehal even sacrificed her sleep so she could let my kiddo out every few hours. I would absolutely let her and her family care for Lila again to be back with Lila’s other “family.””
“As a first‑time Rover user, I was nervous about leaving my dogs with anyone outside of family. Ashley made the entire experience better than I expected. She took amazing care of both of my dogs — my energetic three‑year‑old English Bulldog and my 24‑year‑old Chihuahua who needs extra help and daily medical attention. Ashley and her two boys were incredibly loving and patient with them, and it showed. My dogs were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for throughout their stay. I was especially impressed by the weekly care checklist she created for each dog. She handed it to me when I picked them up, detailing everything she did for them. It was thoughtful, organized, and gave me complete peace of mind. I’m so grateful for the care she provided. I would absolutely book with Ashley again.”
“Dave and his wife were great to have. I dropped Duke off and it seemed like he had a great time. I really appreciate David and his wife looking after Duke when I went out of town for business. Dude can sometimes be a handful at least in my opinion, and Dave did great with Duke’s quirks. I would recommend Dave to watch and care for anyone’s dogs. Great communicate. Took photos and kept me updated on any developments. Thanks again Dave!”
“Leila had a great long weekend with Priscilla and her family. We appreciated regular updates and photos while we were gone. We will rebook in the future for sure!”
“Wonderful as always!!!! They keep me updated constantly on what Sofia is doing and how her day is going…. I couldn’t ask for more from them they’re truly the best 💕 we love them 🥰”
“I highly recommend Lili’s business. She’s very kind, thoughtful and reliable. This is the fourth time I leave my beloved Pumpkin with her and my dog is always happy to see her! I am so grateful that she takes good care of him. I used to drop/pick him up but I’m busy and she offers pick up/drop off and is always so reliable and on time. 5 stars and very happy for her help!”
“Breanna and her family were amazing and so accommodating! They helped me with boarding my baby Charlie when I had an emergency and were very responsive. I was nervous being that me or Charlie had never met them before, but they were so kind and made me feel so comfortable leaving her there with their family and dogs. They sent lots of pictures and videos and Charlie came home happy :) so grateful for them!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care my dog received! Kyungah was amazing—professional, attentive, and loving. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, and my dog seemed so comfortable and happy when I returned. Highly recommend and caring sitter!”
“Duke lived his best life with Jorge, his wife, and their dogs while we were out of town. The communication and photos were great, Duke looked so happy and relaxed, we didn’t have to worry about him at all. I will definitely rebook and highly recommend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Helotes
We had such a wonderful experience with this family caring for our Bentley! From the very beginning, they provided frequent communication, along with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Bentley received excellent care and clearly felt right at home. We especially appreciated how comfortable he was with their family, including the small children and their older dogs. They were attentive, loving, and made sure Bentley was well cared for throughout his stay. It’s not always easy leaving your fur baby with someone else, but this family made the entire experience so reassuring and stress-free. We are incredibly grateful for the love and care they gave Bentley and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter! 🐾❤️
I was frantic because my sitter disappeared and I needed to leave town. Kathy responded immediately and welcomed her without a million questions when I was already so stressed. This was Lucia’s first time staying with someone she didn’t know and with other pets but Kathy was so patient and I know Lucia was very comfortable.
Huge shoutout to Megan for taking such amazing care of my dog while I was away. She kept me updated, made sure everything was handled, and treated my dog like family. Coming home to a happy, relaxed pup says everything. Reliable, caring, and trustworthy. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Megan to anyone needing someone dependable to watch their pets! 🐾🙌
Alyssa was incredibly kind and took such wonderful care of Bella. We received constant updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease while we were away. She also ensured Bella was comfortable and well cared for during the entire stay. Alyssa was also very flexible with our schedule, which was a huge help and made the whole process stress-free. Thank you for taking such good care of our Bellita!

Most bookings cost between $25 and $49 per night. 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.

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.
92% of sitters in Helotes 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 Helotes 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 Helotes.
<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 Helotes 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.
