“Our two puppies had a wonderful day with Erica! She kept us updated with pictures and videos and spent all day taking care of them and playing and cuddling and giving them all of her attention and love. Erica is super sweet and such an animal lover. We plan on having her be a go to dog sitter for our fur babies.”
“If you are looking for a loving, caring and safe household to care for your fur baby, Michael and Julie are your caretakers! They provided outstanding care plus updates and photos of my dog playing with theirs and having a good time. Thanks again, Michael and Julie!! See you next time.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving our 2 dogs with Tristan for the weekend. They took to her immediately at our meet and greet and upon drop off they couldn’t get in the door fast enough. I received daily updates along with pictures. Upon leaving, her daughters made sure to come tell my dogs good bye and even kiss them on the head. That was very reassuring for me that they were well loved during their stay.”
“Excellent care, attentive and responsive with an incredible space for puppies!! Ours was a bit of work but Patrick was great with communication and care for our six month old pup! Not to mention his home is better than any B&B you'll find in Austin! I think our doggie had a better vacation than we did which is just the way you want it!! Thank you Patrick and family!!!”
“Lilyanna was super sweet and communicative. She was accommodating to my schedule needs as well. She sent photos everyday and asked questions to make my dog's stay more comfortable.”
“I left my Trixie with Ashwani and Garima for 9 days and I can say they were wonderful with her! I got pictures and video updates making me feel good she was having a great time. I will definitely use them again and recommend them 100%”
About: Hi there! My name is Shima and as a major dog lover, I understand the love a pet parent has for their fur babies and can ensure that while in my care, your dog(s) will be in safe hands. My mission is to build bonds with your dog(s) and help in a time of need to ensure the well-being of your pet. Due to my years of experience from owning a variety of breeds and sizes gives me the ability to properly provide care for all breeds, sizes, and ages. As an active individual who personally loves going on long walks with my own furbaby, Rex, everyday. I would be delighted to take on pet walking as a full time job and provide other pet parents with the option to set up their own schedule based on what works best for them. During Dog Walks, I will properly and safely walk your dog(s) to ensure that they have fun while preventing injuries from collars, bystanders, and or passing vehicles. We will go on walks through parks, safe neighborhoods, and any preferences or recommendations by pet owner(s). We can engage in fetch, tug of war, or nature trail walks with the pet owner(s) permission of course.
“Nicole and her family were absolutely wonderful with Bunny and Laila over the weekend! They were so kind, welcoming, and accommodating, and gave our dogs so much love and attention. The frequent pictures and updates were a joy to receive and gave us peace of mind seeing how happy and comfortable both dogs were. Nicole went above and beyond, and we couldn’t have asked for a more caring family to look after our pups. We would happily book with her again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, attentive sitter. Thank you, Nicole and family, for taking such amazing care of Bunny and Laila! ❤️🐾”
“Ziyu was great with our dogs and very accommodative with our last minute request. She was also prompt with her updates. The dogs had a great time with her. Would definitely recommend.”
“I left Milo with Katy and her family for 10 days and he loved it! Katy truly does treat the dogs she cares for like her own. Milo came back super happy, well adjusted, absolutely no separation anxiety. Katy also sent pics throughout our trip, she kept in close contact which made my trip so much more peaceful and comfortable knowing Milo was doing great. He seem to really enjoy being around everyone in the family. He had a great time. I will be leaving Milo again for our next trips the following months.”
“Paddy and Ari had a wonderful stay with Mercedes and her family. They came home happy and calm, and to be honest I wasn’t sure if they wanted to leave. I received frequent updates from Mercedes during the visit, and I could tell they were getting a lot of love and affection. I would definitely recommend Mercedes and trust her with my pups again.”

“It was our first time with Zoe and we are happy to find her, our puppy Mila returned happy from her Dogcation 🐾 We needed to change our pickup time and Zoe was flexible. We definitely coming back in the future.”

About: From a young age, I was taught the love, care, and attention that every animal requires. Growing up around both dogs and cats gave me a great desire to always be surrounded by animals and to have a few of my own. I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. Whether your dog needs a special medication, extra walks, or a bedtime story, I’m your girl. Your dogs will be treated as if they are my own, and I’ll make sure you’re always in the know with daily pictures and videos. I work from home, so as long as your house has reliable internet, I can keep your babies entertained and loved throughout the day and night! I want to keep your babies on their schedule as much as possible when you’re away! I would love to have written instructions for feed times, walks, and even bedtime. I will adhere to any rules you have for them as well!
“Kati and Brian and their son Logan and pup Louie are the perfect choice for us and our girl Brandi! She loves her new friends and our weeklong stay went perfectly! They are now our number one go to choice for care for our pup! Brandi is excited and wags her tail everytime we go to their home and we know she’s in great hands!”
“We had such a great experience with Jiaxun! He accepted our last-minute request during a long weekend, which already helped us out so much. Throughout the stay, he kept us updated with frequent photos and messages, and always asked thoughtful clarifying questions whenever needed. Our dog is very anxious in new environments and can be quite resource guarding, so we’re always nervous leaving him with someone new. But he’s also incredibly affectionate once he feels genuinely cared for, and it was obvious our sitter truly cared about him. We could tell our dog felt safe and comfortable, which means everything to us. We’re so grateful for the patience, kindness, and attention he gave our pup. Highly recommend!”

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.
95% of sitters in Horseshoe Bay 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 Horseshoe Bay 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 Horseshoe Bay.
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 Horseshoe Bay. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.

You and your Horseshoe Bay 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.
