“Keliann is incredibly caring and attentive. I know when I leave my dog with Keliann that she will be in a loving home with great company! Keliann always sends thoughtful, thorough updates on my dog’s stay including pictures, descriptions of the days activities, and how happy my dog is to play with the others. I highly recommend boarding with Keliann!”
“Amanda is amazing! She’s wonderfully thorough and caring. We were completely at ease and pleased while away from our beloved dog. We loved the frequent updates and photos of her stay. I’d rate Amanda an ALLSTAR!! :)”
“Amy was so amazing the entire time we were away and left our fur baby with her. We got daily updates and pictures/ videoes and she treated our boy just as if he was one of her own. I can’t recommend her enough.”
“Mary & Khamtane were great with my puppy Cody 😁 provided updates and pictures throughout Cody’s stay. Definitely I recommend them, and will definitely book them again.”
“We really appreciated Estephania's openness for a last minute boarding! We got photos / videos for updates and was patient with our timid girl. Thank you for caring for Lexi! She came back very happy!”
“Thank you Eva & Kallven M.! I want you to know how much my family appreciated your family accommodating us with dog sitting our Chiweenie “Tip”. It was so last minute, but you took Tip in. I also want to let the other Dog Owners on Rover that I am no kin, no friend, no coworker, no old or current-LOL boyfriend/girlfriend, no church member, no classmate, no association with this family at all! I did not know Eva & Kallven M. before this. Now, I tell everyone this because I am a real client of theirs, and have no reason to make anything up, nor was I paid to leave a great review. This family is very professional-from the first contact to picking up my dog. They responded right away-which doesn’t happen often. They sent me pictures while I was away, and kept me updated when I inquired. Very dog friendly family who we observed to be caring and loving to dogs. I didn’t worry a bit while I was away, this gave me piece of mind. This family is my go to dog sitter. This is the dog sitter everyone wants and needs, I highly recommend this family…..Shawn and Sharlene Claybon”

“Lorraine was amazing! From initial communication, to meet and greet, to the actual stay she was wonderful! Our two Aussies had a 5 night stay. One of our dogs was a new rescue addition to our family. Lorraine was so helpful when Daisy was having some food issues and went above and beyond - not only while the dogs were with her - but also in using her experience and expertise to offer me help with ideas and solutions when we picked up our doggos. She sent pictures and sweet updates while we were away which was great! We would definitely be grateful if she was available the next time we have to be away. Definite recommend!”
“Kristin was amazing!! She watched my GSP for about 10 days while I was on vacation, and he had a great time with her! Lots of play time, he ate well, and seemed very happy. Kristin also replied every message very quickly and sent daily pictures. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“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.”
“Kayla has been wonderful. I mistakenly shorted my booking by one day and Kayla accommodated me even tho she didn't have to. I really appreciate Kayla being so genuine and intentional! Peyton has earned allergies and she made sure he got his ear drops daily. He came home with no more itchy red ears! PeytonPooch had a wonderful time.”
“So very accommodating and kind despite us being SO late coming back due to traffic and rental car delays. Absolutely the best 10/10 if I could give 100 stars I would. Very kind and my dog really enjoyed herself. Super understanding about puppy stuff. I know Onyx will miss everyone there!”
“This is my second time leaving my dogs with Ms. Janell. She is absolutely fantastic. The dogs enjoy themselves as it reminds them of home. Ms. Janell is very attuned to the temperament of everyone boarding with her and works to ensure that harmony is kept in the home. She provided daily feedback and reaches out if she has questions or concerns. My vacation plans are centered around her availability.”
“Judith and her husband are so kind! They took such good care of my little guy, and I can tell he had a lot of fun! She kept me updated each day with pictures which was so nice, and they were very understanding and accomidating to my last-minute request. They have a beautiful home and a perfect yard with a doggy door!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Iowa Colony
Used Rover to find a sitter for my dog, Milo, and I’m so glad I found Ashley! She was absolutely awesome. Milo is usually very anxious around new people, but she immediately made him feel comfortable and at ease. She communicated with me regularly throughout his stay and sent plenty of pictures and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while traveling. Seeing how happy and comfortable Milo was made the entire trip much easier. I will definitely be booking with Ashley 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!
Brooke was absolutely wonderful with Milo! From start to finish, she kept us completely at ease with regular updates and adorable photos while we were away. You can tell immediately how much she loves dogs, not just her own, but every pup in her care. I knew from the moment we met her that Milo was in the best possible hands. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and we will definitely be booking with her again!

There are 2,506 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Iowa Colony. About 91% of Iowa Colony 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. 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.
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 TX 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.
