“Vimonluck was such a breathe of fresh air and gave me so much peace of mind when watching Hershey! She provided updates, pictures, and videos. Hershey was living her best life playing my hide and seek with Vimonluck’s dog Miso! I’d definitely recommend and rebook with Vimonluck on future occasions. Thank you so much!”
“Richard and Stephanie were absolutely amazing with our girl Bailey! She had a blast and got tons of love and walks. They will love your dog like their own and it really gave us such comfort while we were away. We will definitely be booking them for our next trip, they are the best!”
“Marci was GREAT! I had concerns leaving our dog with anyone as he can be a handful, not in a bad way but a bit anxious and high energy. Marci was very confident he would not be a problem. Her calmness and demeanor was a perfect fit for Robin Hood. Although she has multiple dogs and cats of her own, Robin was able to adjust and become part of the pack during his stay. When in need for a pet sitter again I’m checking in with Marci!”
“Thank you so much for taking care of my baby while I was away. It was so great knowing he was in such great hands. Thank you for the pictures and little updates. That always helps me relax more knowing he is doing so well. I definitely recommend and will definitely book again in the future!”
“Lisa always eases my mind that my furbabies are well taken care of. We have used her several times. We appreciate the ease of mind knowing when we leave them with her they are in good hands!”
“Lisa was AMAZING! She provided daily updates and photos of Chaka. She was extremely communicative and accommodating. I had issues with my return flight and she was completely understanding. I highly recommend! Thank you Lisa! You and your beautiful family will see Chaka again soon!”
“This was my first rover experience and to say I enjoyed it was an understatement. I received photos of Zoe during her visit. She was well taken care of. I normally would never let anyone babysit her outside of family but someone recommended rover. Will definitely be booking Teena again! Thanks so much for making me feel at ease.”
“OMG!! Aimee is the BEST!! This is the 2nd time we have had to leave our Zeus with someone, other than my parents, so we were nervous, but Aimee took all of our fears away. She sent personalized collages, photos, videos, and notes throughout his stay to keep us informed. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to not only look after their fur baby while they are away but also someone to care for your fur baby like he/she is her own! I look forward to having Zeus be a part of her family the next time we are away. Thank you so much Aimee ❤️”
“I appreciate Yvette’s prompt response to my boarding request. Upon meeting her it was obvious that she genuinely care about pets. The pictures, videos, and updates assured me that my fur baby was in good hands. I’m sure Coco loved the attention that she received. We will choose Yvette for boarding again.”
“Ms. Elaine is so kind and courteous and made me feel like I left my Fur babies in good and safe hands. I highly recommend her and will definitely keep coming back as long as she will have them. She is a great sitter.”
About: I have experience with dogs of all ages, including puppies who need patience, consistency, and reinforcement of basic training, as well as senior dogs who require extra attention, medication management, and gentle care. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family member is receiving personalized attention, plenty of affection, exercise, and companionship throughout their stay. Your dog's happiness, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities. 🐾 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I enjoy spending time outdoors and make sure pets get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention throughout the day. Whether it's morning walks, playtime in the yard, potty breaks, or evening strolls, I structure my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent care and companionship. I have individual climate-controlled kennels in a secure, fenced yard, providing a comfortable and safe environment for every dog. Each dog receives personalized care based on their temperament and needs, with options for both individual playtime and supervised group socialization.
“I would totally recommend Kara. I’m so thankful she made my fur baby’s birthday so special while we were out of town. I know my Shelby girl had soo much fun with them. Such a sweet family for sure.”
“Vanessa is one of the most caring and reliable sitter that I have used. She is not only knowledgable about taking proper care of animals, she is also responsible in making sure they are safe and loved. Vanessa took care of our four dogs extremely well, and I would use her again if ever needed. Vanessa also communicates really well and makes sure everyone is on the same page. She helped us out when we were not going to be back on time to collect our pups, and this showed me how much she cares about sitting and it is not just a job to her.”
“I can’t recommend her enough as a dog sitter. She’s not only incredibly attentive to my pup’s needs, but she also communicates quickly and thoughtfully. I always feel at ease knowing my dog is in such careful hands!”
“He took care of my dogs so well and sent pictures of them the whole time we were gone. They went on walks to the park, and around the neighborhood. I highly recommend:)”
“Shayla is a wonderful pet sitter. I left my fur baby with her for a week and she kept me updated daily with her morning walks and feeding etc. She is also friendly and sweet. I recommend and will use her again in the future.”
“Amber is very sweet and took great care of my dog, Ellie. Amber even gave her a bath so when I picked Ellie up she was so fluffy and smelled so good! I would recommend Amber to anyone who’s looking for boarding in the area.”
“Great couple to use for a sitter. Our Noah was well taken care of and she made sure to keep us updated with pictures. Will book again! THANK YOU BOTH!”
“Jasmine and Evan are wonderful pet sitters! They were patient with our 8 month old, very energetic puppy and gave our older dog lots of affection. Their home is set up well to watch pets and their back yard was a big hit! My dogs were well cared for and safe while we were out of town for the weekend. Jasmine was very easy to communicate with for booking and was reliable! I will definitely be booking with them again in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 364 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Italy. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% of sitters in Italy 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 Italy 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 Italy.
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 Italy. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Italy 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.
