“Karen is amazing! She watched Bingo for more than two weeks and treated him like a member of her own family. He came home happy, healthy, and clearly very well-loved. I can tell he’s going to miss her! If you need a reliable and affectionate pet sitter, Karen is the one. 10/10 recommend! I will definitely choose you for my next trip♥️ Thank you so much Karen.”
“Our English Bulldog Harley had great stay at Anna's. She has a deep passion for caring for animals and we knew Harley was in good hands for the week long stay. She is great about keeping you updated with pictures, video's and text messages. Her home and fenced in backyard allows the dogs to move about as they choose and need. You can leave your dog with Anna knowing he or she is being well cared for. I highly recommend Anna for your DogVacay needs.”
“Daisy was great with Captain! Took him on long walks, helped him when he had some separation anxiety, and communicated with us thru the stay. 10/10 will rebook when we are back in town.”
“Kaylynn was great, very responsive and easy to communicate with. As a 1st time Rover user she explained how it worked to get things going. Several pics during the vacation.”
“Amanda has become Thor's favorite! Every time she drops him off, he paces at the door and runs to the door whenever he hears a car door closing. She is the best and only sitter we will ever use! A+++”
“We were searching for a new care taker since we are a busy family of five. And trying to find a temporary home away from home while gone for our 15 and 3 year old Weimaraners was a breeze when it came to Amanda caring for them. Amanda embraced the 3 year old mischievous Wweimaraner with ease at the same time loved on the 15 yr old elderly Weim. We are so happy to have found a new temporary home while we travel for our kids. Amanda...you make life a breeze and I appreciate all you do. Thanks again.”
“I can’t say enough about how wonderful Zulma is. She truly loves animals. Annabella is always so well taken care of and loves Zulma. She is very responsible and gives a lot of updates on your pets. I know I don’t have to worry about my dog when she is with Zulma. Highly recommended.”
“Frit was amazing! I got daily updates & photos of Saint every morning & evening. Really great to know my dog was well taken care of & loved in my absence. Will def be using her again in the future.”
“We had such a wonderful experience! Our dog absolutely loved staying with her, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She is incredibly sweet, loving, gentle, and genuinely caring with dogs. It was easy to see that our dog felt comfortable, safe, and happy in her home. We are so grateful for the care and attention she gave him and would absolutely trust her with him again. Highly recommend! ❤️🐾”

“Vicki is great!! My cat was spayed a couple weeks before she stayed with Vicki and was having some GI issues. I felt nervous about finding a someone that would be willing to take her with the vomiting and diarrhea but Vicki was more than happy to help. She was very watchful of Rosie’s progress and made appropriate suggestions about her medications. We needed to leave her with Vicki for an extra night and Vicki was accommodating about that as well. I will DEFINITELY be working with Vicki again and suggest you all stop reading this review and sign your pets up as well! Thank you again Vicki!!”

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.

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 Hockley 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 Hockley 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 Hockley.
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 Hockley. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 Hockley 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.
