“Brady always takes the best care of our girls! They get so excited when we pull up to his driveway now! We can now leave on our vacations with ease knowing they are in the best hands! Thank you Brady for taking the best care of them!!!!”

“We had a great experience with Destiny and Matthew while they took care of our dog Maple over the weekend. They are a very kind and caring couple, and it was evident from the start that Maple was in good hands. Destiny's prompt responses and regular updates with pictures and videos were reassuring and showed just how much attention and love Maple was receiving. Maple had a blast playing with their dogs and came back happy. We highly recommend Destiny and Matthew for anyone looking for attentive and loving pet sitters!”


“Paula is the best!! She made our older cat feel so comfortable and sent us pics and videos of her everyday. It’s clear how much Paula loves animals and it gave us so much peace knowing our cat was well cared for.”

About: I’ve been tasked to take care of all kinds of animals for as long as I can remember. All of my family and friends have been able to rely on me to host or sit their pet from farm animals to house pets when need be. I work night shifts and free on the weekends so I’m always able to take care of pets. And I have a dog of my own so pet care is a every day thing for me. I have a fenced in backyard, doggy door and a lead attachment for dogs I host and my own dog to come and go as they please along with plenty of space to play in either the garage or one of 3 bedrooms.
“Our Beagle enjoyed his weekend stay with Yulian and her husband. He was uneasy, as we knew he would be, when we dropped him off, but soon got acquainted with them and their dog. We were sent regular updates with pictures that made us feel at ease. We will definitely consider them again for our future travels!”

“Morgan was absolutely great and I will be using her in the future! She was great with communication and very accommodating. While we were gone, they stayed in contact with us and sent pictures. Our dog, Zara, seemed very happy and comfortable at their home. It was apparent she got lots of love, attention and was well taken care of. A big thank you to Morgan, and we’re so happy we found you guys!”
“Chloe was awesome with my pup Angus. She provided excellent services and communication throughout the sitting period. I will definitely be using her for future sittings! Thank you Chloe!”

“Brittany and her family are great! They treated our dog like family and sent us pictures throughout his stay. They were very accommodating with our holiday travels and were great with communication. Will be using her again!”

About: •LICENSED, INSURED AND BONDED PROFESSIONAL PET SITTER• If you are new to Rover, I encourage you to use my promo code KAYLAM49673 when booking with me to get $20 off your first service! I've always had dogs in my family growing up, which lead me to finding my passion in caring for animals. I have experience in giving pups medication, grooming, identifying illnesses, and body language thanks to my last job at a doggy daycare! I've been around and cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes! I understand how important your furry family members are and will make sure they have everything they need (and make sure they have tons of fun of course!) I have experience with cats as well, having two of my own and taking care of our local strays. :) I also have experience in taking care of chickens, ducks and fish and am comfortable with any other pets you may have! I have respect and compassion for all animals and would love to provide them with the love and care they deserve. I am currently pursuing Rover full time so I have lots of flexibility. Let me know what your schedule is and I can be available whenever you need me! I understand the meaning of integrity and integrate it fully into my services. I will treat your home and your animals as if they were my own. The same goes for any pets boarding with me as they’ll be part of our family while they’re in my home. I can give them a safe environment where they feel loved and secure.

“I could not have asked for a better host. Ashley is extremely sweet, caring, responsible and very thorough. I felt completely comfortable leaving Abby in her care. Ashley's dog Sally is a sweetheart and got along very well with Abby. I loved that Abby would have a playmate during this stay. Ashley was also very communicative. She sent me texts to ask any questions as well as regular photo updates throughout the stay. When I picked Abby up, I could tell that she was happy, playful, and well taken care of. Thank you, Ashley & Sally! See you very soon!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years and have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and dogs of all sizes and personalities. As a lifelong dog owner and elementary school teacher, I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to every pet’s unique needs. I have a large fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run and play, as well as a friendly black Lab who loves having canine visitors. He’s playful and social but also respectful of dogs who prefer a quieter, more relaxed environment. Whether your dog needs exercise, cuddles, medication, or simply companionship while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll treat your pet like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently off for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. Whether your dog needs daycare, overnight boarding, walks, or drop-in visits, I’ll make sure they get lots of playtime, exercise, cuddles, and companionship. I can accommodate most schedules and will do my best to meet your pet’s routine. Safety, Trust & Environment My home is a safe, welcoming place for dogs to relax and have fun. I have a fully fenced yard where they can run and play under supervision, and my friendly black Lab enjoys having visitors but is gentle with dogs who prefer their own space. Whether your pet is energetic or more laid-back, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I maintain a clean, secure environment, closely supervise outdoor time, and follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions provided by owners. My goal is to make your dog feel right at home while giving you peace of mind.
“Wonderful communication! She was super flexible with pick up and drop off times. Her dogs got along so well with our pup! He truly seems like he had the best time playing all weekend long! Cecelia sent us picture and video updates and responded super quickly anytime we wanted to check up on him. I HIGHLY recommend her and felt super comfortable leaving our puppy dog with her!”

“Hallye was so nice and kind. My boys seemed to have a great time. She also sent tons of pictures and was very attentive to both my questions and to my dogs. Would definitely recommend.”

About: If given the opportunity I would love to take care of your fur babies like they were my own. I have always been a pet and animal lover, and a natural care taker so this seemed like a very logical next step for me. Your pet would get all the love and attention you aren’t able to provide while you are at work or away on vacation. You would never have to worry about them when they are in my care. I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to be able to be the one who gets to take care of your pets when you are unable to. I currently work from home in a non demanding job with flexible hours so I have plenty of time to love and care for your pet! I know all pets are not the same. I am willing to work with and learn your pet’s personality! I volunteer at my local animal shelter as well!
About: I have several years experience caring for my own pets but would love to spend time with yours. I am available evenings right now because I work days but I'm hoping If all goes well I might be able to do days later. I can walk, feed and cuddle your baby and keep them safe. I love pets and enjoy how happy that are to see you. I look forward to hearing from you soon so we could get you set up with a time that works for you and me. So we could go over all the details of how you want your pet care for and loved. Your fur baby will be like one of my own when your away. I look forward to meeting your baby!

FAQs for Boarding - Houstonia
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 26 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Houstonia. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Houstonia 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 Houstonia.
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 Houstonia 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 MO 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.
