“They were fantastic!!!! We have new friends in our opinion 🥰🥰. They kept us well informed about how Coco was doing with them and their dog Bailey and how much fun she was having. We felt extremely comfortable with Dee and Doug and fully intend on bringing our dog back to them much more!!!!!”
“We very much appreciate the care Ryan and Lisa provided for our dog Singha while we were away for 3 weeks. He enjoys going there and gets along well with their dog Remy.”
“Kylie took wonderful care of Daisy! I loved receiving daily photos and updates, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She made sure Daisy got plenty of walks and attention. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!”
“Winnie and Oliver had a great stay with Carmen! We received daily updates and pictures and appreciated all Carmen did to make them feel loved while we were away - we will definitely call Carmen for any future needs!”
“Our dog was so happy with Brad and Kelli. She almost didn't want to come home. She was able to go for her daily walks and she was also able to get a lot of snuggles too. We don't go out of town very often with out Coco but if we do then we will definitely go with Brad and Kelli again.”
“Was really glad to leave Tugger (dog) with her. Tug seemed to enjoy having kids and another dog around to play with. Jennifer sent updates and pictures while I was out of town visiting family. Which helped ease my anxiety with boarding him somewhere for the first time. Overall was a pretty good experience.”
“Stacey remains absolutely amazing. Teddy always has a good time and he definitely enjoyed staying with Stacey and her animals during the Thanksgiving break. She goes over and beyond when caring for Teddy, which we truly appreciate!”
“Daniela was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my babies. She kept me informed throughout the stay with pictures and communication about how they were doing. I felt completely comfortable and my doggies were well taken care of! Thank you ever so much! We will see you again!”
“Gloria was AMAZING! My sweet girls were treated as family (I don't think they were very excited to come back home with me, haha). Will definitely be using Gloria again :)”
“Dialena has been amazing with our girl Bella! Her communication was great, she sent numerous pictures and videos daily so we knew what was going on. Bella is an older girl, but she has kept her active and having fun playing with her dogs. Its been wonderful!”
“Jordyn was amazing with our pup! She provided us with updates and was very knowledgeable! Our pup had an upset stomach and Jordyn was very caring and kept us updated. He had a great time and Jordyn even gave him a bath. She went above and beyond and I am so happy to have found someone that I trust with my dog.”
“Yailen did an amazing job taking care of our senior dog, Amy. From the very beginning, she was calm, patient, kind, and incredibly responsible. Caring for a senior dog requires extra attention, and Yailen made sure Amy was comfortable, well cared for, and happy throughout our time away. One thing we especially appreciated was how thoughtful she was in keeping us updated. She regularly sent us photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to see that Amy was relaxed and in great hands. It was clear that Yailen genuinely cared for Amy and treated her with love and compassion. We are so grateful to Yailen for the exceptional care she provided. Knowing that Amy was safe and receiving such wonderful attention made our trip completely stress-free. We highly recommend Yailen to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter, especially for senior pets. We will definitely book with her again whenever we need someone to care for Amy. Thank you so much, Yailen!”
“Stephanie was amazing, she took great care of my pets, they can back healthy, she took them on walks, and sent me pictures daily. Fantastic experience, would definitely rebook with her again”
“So grateful for Cindy being able to watch my fur baby while I was away for a week! She was so sweet and provided updates/pictures almost daily and whenever asked. I wanted my little one to be cared in a homey setting with special attention vs a boarding place where he’s just a number. He looked so cozy and comfortable! Will definitely be using Cindy again 🤗”
“Stefanie was fantastic for the 4 days she sat for Chip, my miniature dachshund. See tended to all his needs and allowed him opportunities for much needed lap time. I will happily use her again and she is a true dog person!”
“She’s is super awesome!!! Treated little Uchi like her own and she sends updates with pictures so I can still see her cute little face!! Thank you Juli for treating Uchi like one of your own!! She truly is amazing! Definitely Recommend!!”

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Hempstead 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 Hempstead 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 Hempstead.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hempstead. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Hempstead 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
