“Rochelle was AMAZING! I have a handicap dog, and an older dog. They both stayed a week. I got picture/video updates dailey. Both were very well taken care of, and happy to be around some other playmates while at her house. She has the perfect set up for both small and large dogs! We will definitely be back to see her!”

“I had a good experience in boarding my 2 Rottweilers ages 9 and 11 months to Luis. My female pup is on her development age where she acts skittish and growls when approach by people she does not know. Because of this behavior and having a big pup, I requested a meet and greet to see if Luis can handle my dog. On the meet up, as expected my female pup acted nervous and growled to Luis but Luis was so patient and gentle to took away her fear and slowly earned her trust. During my dogs 3 night stay, Luis took care of my pups like as his own pet. My pups really had vacation of their own, enjoying to Luis’ beautiful dog resort while my family are out of town. Luis has perfect place for dogs where they can have fun for a lifetime.”

“Sheila’s place is so perfect- country setting and she is the best dog whisperer! Sheila sent videos of Duchess so I wasn’t soo homesick for her. Duchess was in the happiest place ever! I would give Sheila 100 stars if I could-”

“I'm very picky about who watches my babies. I won't be leaving them with anyone else but Patrick and Claudette. If there was an option to give 10+ stars, I definetely would! They are absolutely amazing people and treat your furbabies as if they were their own. The 4 days that we were on vacation, we received pictures and videos of our boys and were updated via text as well of how they were doing which put this mama at ease knowing they were so loved and so well taken care of while we were away. Thank you so much Patrick and Claudette!”

“I am so grateful for Kristi! Our dogs are in good hands when we leave them with her. I am stress free and I know that they will get a good care while we are away!”

“Jonathan has become our go-to sitter. He is flexible, trustworthy, and super communicative. Our dog loves him and we will continue to call on Jonathan whenever we need. Definitely recommend!”

“Julie was an amazing sitter. Her two awesome kids help keep the dog happy and gave lots of attention. She will be our go-to from now on. She also left lots of updates for us and sent us pictures which was a big deal. Thank you so much and I definitely recommend Julie”


“Carolyn was amazing with our sweet Harper! We even had to extend d our trip several data and she was so accommodating. She sent lots of pictures and was always ready with info at check ins. It is extremely obvious Harper got a lot of love while she stayed with Carolyn. We will absolutely be using her again when we are in town!”

“2nd stay with Samantha & Ryan and once again I am pleased with the communication ,care, & the extra mile always put forth. I will continue to use Ryan & Samantha. I definitely recommend. Thank you so much!”

“Melinda is a wonderful dog sitter! She took care of my baby so well & even sent her home with a brand new toy! ☺️ It gave me such peace of mind when she sent me picture update of my baby, and I would definitely book her again!”

“Janet was great and very trustworthy! I was very nervous leaving the city without my puppy, but Janet took excellent care of him. She would keep me updated with pictures everyday, which made me feel much better! I will definitely be rebooking her.”

“This was our first time using Rover and Justyne was awesome. She answered all of our questions and kept us very well informed about the whole process. She does take care of several dogs at once however, when new dogs are brough into her house, she makes sure they are introduced to the other dogs one at a time so it is a calm stress-free process. Justyne is very calm and patient with each dog. Normally after we bring our dogs home from being boarded, they immediately rush to the water bowls then outside to do their business and are sleeping the rest of the day due to the stress. After we brought them home from being under Justyne’s care, they did not even go to the water bowl and were pretty much back to their normal routine as soon as we got home. This tells me they were very well taken care of and we will definitely be using Justyne next time we need a dog sitter.”

“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!”

“Pam was wonderful and took great care of Barkley for us. She sent us updates and pictures each day. She took Barkley for walks and to the dog park with her dog Speedy. The two dogs became BFFs and we even received videos of them playing together. We are so grateful to have found a sitter we can trust for our furbaby and peace of mind knowing she was treated as a family member in Pam's care.”

“Perfect! If you're looking to have great care for your pet look no further. Our dog had a wonderful stay with them. They have 2 dogs of their own that he played with and kept him company. He also loved the attention from Aldrin and Teresa. They are a sweet friendly couple. Someone was always home to watch them and they took him on plenty of walks. That really helps when our dog is in a new place with new faces. We also appreciate their organization and communication skills. They confirmed the appointment the day before, asked good questions about our dog and provided just the right amount of pics/updates. The attention to detail is very much appreciated. We will definitely use them in the future and I know our dog will be looking forward to it.”

“Natalia and her family were lovely with our dogs. I’m quite sure they were spoiled. Calm, with two well behaved dogs of their own. My dogs came back happy and relaxed. Thank you!”

“Shannon did a great job in watching our Bella. She gave us day-to-day pictures and post of exactly what she was doing and the Care she was providing. We will definitely use her again. I recommend her to for everybody. Thank you Shannon.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Joshua
Alyssa was amazing! She was communicative, kind, and overall a pleasure to deal with! This was my first time using the Rover app. I was looking for someone that I could trust with my dog Jeff. From the get-go, I was confident I found the right person. She sent me daily pics an update updates. She even filmed the reunion when I picked him up after almost a month! 10 out of 10 would recommend Alyssa!

If I could give a 10 out of 5, I would! They were the best hosts ever! Our dogs were so happy with them. One of our dogs has social anxiety and she went right up to both of them like she had known them forever. You can totally tell these are dog people through and through. There are not enough words of praise for the two wonderful people!!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Joshua is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Joshua 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 Joshua home-away-from-home, 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 Joshua.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Joshua 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 , 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 .
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.
