“Julia was excellent! My dog loved her right away. He gets a bit of separation anxiety and can be reactive toward other dogs, but after meeting Julia I felt very good about leaving my dog with her. She gave great updates along the way and was accommodating with our schedule. I would definitely book with her again!”
“We strongly recommend Nelia, Brett, and Family. Our dog had the best boarding experience ever with them. We got regular daily updates, and he was always very happy during the visit. He was also sad to leave them at the end of the visit. We will definitely board with them the next time we are out of town.”
“Veronica was great with Winter and kept in contact with us and kept us updated with pictures! I believe Winter had a great time (even though she was a little naughty! ). Thank you Veronica!”
“Our 2 year old black lab Morgan has lots of energy, Rebecca and Tank wore her out! The dogs played all weekend and Morgan had a great time! Easy to drop off and pick up at Rebecca's place. Morgan made new friends...”
“My two cavapoos had the best time and Samantha was very responsive with updates to ease my anxiety about leaving them for so long! I would highly recommended trusting her with your fur babies!”
“Raeann is truly the best. She cares for Bronn as if he were her own. She always sends lots of updates and pictures (which as anxious dog mom I appreciate immensely). I could not recommend her enough and Bronn is looking forward his next visit!”
“When I had to leave a special needs dog to take a quick business trip, Ashley’s skills and background really stood out. I was able to get away while knowing that my dog was safe and loved. The entire family went above and beyond to make sure that he felt that way too!”
“Wonderful experience with Jeremy and his wife! We were so grateful to find them on short notice, and they took wonderful care of our pup. I think she was almost sad to leave she had so much fun! We will be calling them again 💗”
“Courtney is wonderful with my dogs. I can always go away and feel comfortable leaving them with. I appreciate every thing she does for them and I know they will be safe and well taken care of.”
“Victoria was wonderful! She responded quickly to my booking request. She was flexible about the dates I needed, and accommodating when my plans changed. Her own dogs are well behaved and friendly. She has a wonderful dog park close to her house. She took great care of my pup and sent me photo and video updates each day. Highly recommended!”
About: My partner, Michelle, and I have had dogs since we were in high school and there is no better joy than going for a walk or spending time with our dogs. I currently only work about two hours every day performing Military Funeral Honors. Times vary but typically the job begins around 11am and lasts 30 minutes after which I drive home. Our family includes three small pugs and two grade school children. Crating pets or having potty trained pets sleep in our room is an option.
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I currently have 2 dogs of my own (a Boston terrier/Chihuahua & a Shih tzu/Chihuahua). I also have a cat. They are my babies & a huge part of the family. I have taken care of dogs of all sizes & I love them all. I would love to spoil your pooch while you're away & make them feel like a part of our family as well. I am a stay at home mom so I am home all day to cater to your dog's needs. I'm a stay at home mom of 2 preteen girls so we have plenty of time to give your pups all the love & attention they deserve. We have a big yard (over an acre) that we can walk & play with your pup. We try to follow your care routine as closely as possible.
About: Hi, I’m Brianna! I’ve had over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and have always had a passion for animals. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, so I understand that every pup has unique needs and routines. Whether your dog loves to play, go on walks, or simply relax and cuddle, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I’m currently taking online college classes, which allows me to be home most of the day and give pets plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, potty breaks, and love. I also have three friendly dogs of my own—Duke, Ramsey, and Cheddar—who have taught me even more about patience, responsibility, and caring for pets like family. My home has a large, fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run and play, and I always strive to create a calm, comfortable, and loving environment. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll care for your dog as if they were my own. My goal is to make every stay fun, safe, and stress-free for both you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m currently taking online college classes, which allows me to be home throughout the day. I plan my coursework around caring for the dogs, so they’re never left alone for long periods. Throughout the day, I make time for potty breaks, playtime, feeding, walks if requested, and plenty of attention and cuddles. Caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, and I love being able to spend my free time making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I take that responsibility very seriously. My home is a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment where dogs are treated with kindness, patience, and love. I have a large, fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore while always being supervised. Inside, pets are welcome to relax and make themselves at home, whether that means lounging on the couch, playing with toys, or finding a cozy spot to nap. Because I’m currently taking online college classes, I’m home most of the day, so your dog will receive constant attention and won’t be left alone for long periods. I’ll follow your pet’s regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications if needed, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I know every dog is different, so I take the time to understand their personality and make sure they feel comfortable and secure throughout their stay. I believe communication is just as important as great care, so I’ll gladly send updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your dog is doing. My goal is to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while giving you complete peace of mind knowing they’re in trustworthy hands. I’ll treat your dog with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own three dogs every single day.
“Amanda and Jack were absolutely amazing! My girl, Onyx, had an issue with her elbow, and they handled the situation with incredible care, compassion, and professionalism. They kept me updated with photos throughout her stay, which gave me tremendous peace of mind, and they even took her on a nature hike so she could enjoy some time outdoors. It's clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after. I highly recommend Amanda's services and wouldn't hesitate to trust them with Onyx again!”
“Bruce had a great time with Gemma and Gizmo! We received regular updates and adorable photos. He loved playing with all the toys and of course snuggling! We will definitely be back - thanks Gemma!”
“Skylar and Brandon were wonderful caretakers of my pup for 8 days. They were understanding of my concern for my French bulldog and the heat and were very responsive to any questions I had. They sent daily updates and pictures and I highly recommend them and will definitely use them in the future.”
“Audrey took such good care of our frenchie Louie!! Daily updates, photos, and videos. She took him out on lots of walks and treated him as her own!”
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends over the years. I work a flexible part-time remote schedule which will allow me to be able to care for your pets as much as needed throughout the day. I plan to keep pets inside during the extremely hot and cold days. Always make sure they have been feed and have fresh water available.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Houston is $45
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Houston
Jaclyn and Ashleigh were positively perfect for what we needed. Our first time using the two of them was also first time we had decided to leave our two pups since we adopted our youngest in September and it could not have gone better. They were very responsive and communicative from the setup of the first introduction clear through to pick-up. They not only seemed to tolerate but actually kind of enjoy some of the decidedly quirkiness or silliness of our pair. Couldn't recommend them highly enough. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our family!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Houston on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 877 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Houston. About 90% of Houston sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.

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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 PA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
