“She is very friendly and helpful. Took good care of my babies (two cats) Didn't have to worry about them the weekend I went camping. She sent me many updates with pictures and videos. Would recommend her and plan on taking them to her when I need boarding care again. Thank you Wendy!”
“I loved everything! Ashley was so sweet with my dog and very welcoming. She communicated with me very well even when I requested everything last minute . Kept me updated and when I came back my dog didn’t wanna leave 😹 , so I think that’s a good sign”
“When we needed to board our dog, the decision was easy - Angela. Our dog is 15 years old and needs 3 daily meds. Angela handled this easily. If you want pictures of your dog, she is your sitter. There is no doubt that we will use Angela again.”
“Ariel took excellent care of my Bailey, so glad to have made the connection. I appreciated Ariel for sending pictures and updates without asking, definitely made me feel comfortable knowing he was in great hands and will book again!!”
“Elena was amazing! I loved knowing our pups were well taken care of and happy. She sent pics and check ins daily which I truly appreciate! She’s super sweet and my boys were happy when I picked them up :) thanks Elena!”
“Penny was Well Cared for, Happy and Content while staying with Brandon and his family. Stayed in communication at all times. She also had a buddy to play with that was her size. A perfect fit! Thank you for taking such good care of our baby..... T”
“Joel & Becky took great care of our dogs. It was our dogs first overnight away from home and they were well cared for and comforted by Joel & Becky. We will definitely ask for them if we need someone to watch them again.”
“Chayanne was great with my pups, especially the little finicky one, Trixie. She kept me in the loop regarding her behavior (not eating or taking meds) and I was able to give her some tips on getting her to eat. She could have easily not said anything and hoped it would resolve itself. Instead she took time to reach out to me and try what I suggested. I really appreciate the extra attention when needed. Thank you Chayanne! Will definitely book again!”
“Silvia Emilee and Jose were the best sitters that I have used. They sent pictures every day. They made sure the pups were played with and were happy. They had a beautiful backyard and a nice room that they keep the puppies to sleep in and they’re two dogs. I can honestly say it’s the first time that I have felt comfortable leaving my dogs for so long they treat them like family highly recommend recommend this sitter in Pearland Texas.”
“Nancy and Santa were absolutely amazing with my girl, Coca Cola! 🐶 They went above and beyond to make sure she was happy and comfortable during her stay. I loved that they sent me constant photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. At the end of the stay, they even provided a thoughtful doggy report card – such a sweet touch! It’s clear they are not only caring but also very knowledgeable when it comes to pups. I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving sitters to watch their fur babies. Thank you both so much!”
“They did such a good job with my corgi and also my friends dog who were admitted at the same time. The dogs look healthy and fine with no problems or behavior issues after receiving them back. Thank you for taking good care of them”
“Lacey is a gem of a human on Rover! From our initial inquiry to drop off and pick up, she went above and beyond as our pet’s care giver. Lacey is very responsive and even accommodated a meet and greet before boarding. Our little teacup chihuahua was in the best of hands and loved well while in her care. We will most certainly book her service again!”
“Talia & Andrew were great!! Our dog was well taken care of and I did not have to worry about him at all. They offer a great safe place for dogs and the communication is excellent! We will def see them next again time we need a dog sitter!! Highly recommend!!”
“Erwin and Derly took wonderful care of my dog! She loved playing in their backyard and spending time with their family, we’ll be using them again in the future!”

If I could add another 10 stars I would. Wendy not only connected with my babies, she made me very comfortable with leaving them with her. Her updates were frequent showing us how at home our babies were. I would definitely arrange future ventures around her availability.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Hillcrest is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $45 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 November 2026, there are 1,771 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hillcrest. 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.
96% of sitters in Hillcrest 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 Hillcrest 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 Hillcrest.
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 Hillcrest 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.
