“Great service and excellent communication. She sent pictures and videos throughout the stay, which really reassured me that the dogs were having fun and well taken care of. Highly recommend! Will book again.”
“Annette was an absolute lifesaver, and we feel so fortunate to have found her! She cared for our dog, Milo, for almost two weeks, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such capable and caring hands. She followed his feeding schedule perfectly and clearly took his routine and well-being seriously. We especially appreciated the thoughtful, consistent updates while we were away. Twice a day, Annette sent wonderful photos and videos of Milo, giving us peace of mind and letting us relax knowing he was happy and well cared for. Annette is reliable, trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely loving toward animals. We’re so grateful for the care she gave Milo and wholeheartedly recommend booking her. We would absolutely book with her again!”
“Jordyn was amazing with our pup! She provided us with updates and was very knowledgeable! Our pup had an upset stomach and Jordyn was very caring and kept us updated. He had a great time and Jordyn even gave him a bath. She went above and beyond and I am so happy to have found someone that I trust with my dog.”
“Amy and her family = 5 stars! They were accommodating at a very last minute after a meet & greet. My main man has severe separation anxiety and Amy was fantastic with him! We’ll definitely be back soon.”
“What a sweet family! They kept us informed and sent pictures everyday. I know Copper had a blast and will miss them all. Would love to used them again on our next visit to Texas ♡ Thank You!!”
“Svetlana took such good care of my Alfie! He was so happy and enjoyed his own vacation with her family. She took special care of his dietary and diaper needs, I’m very grateful for the care she provided.”
“Deuce absolutely loves going and getting spoiled while at Delys’. She keeps us up to date/sends pictures and is great with him. Will definitely leave Deuce with her again!”
“absolutely amazing! I have HIGH energy dogs and he handled them like a CHAMP. His rates are amazing. He sends videos of the dogs on walks and my dogs came home very happy! I will be using him again!”
“I have used Deborah for both day care and overnight boarding and she is awesome! She and her family take great care of my anxious boy and I will continue to use her services.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!!! Lauren and her family were amazing with our 5 month old puppy. They sent daily updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind and let us see how much fun she was having. It was clear from every update that our puppy was happy, loved, and well cared for. She got plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, and we could tell she felt right at home. We are so grateful for the care they provided and we’ve already scheduled them to watch our puppy again soon. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and attentive pet sitters!”
“This is the second time Zeus has stayed with Lori. She was very sweet and accommodating! I reached out to her to see if she could watch him for us and changed her schedule around which was very nice! She was a life saver! We will continue to use her services!”
“We absolutely loved having Tiffany, James, and their girls care for Zoe! They were incredibly accommodating and even available last minute, which we really appreciated. They were loving, attentive, and made us feel completely at ease. Zoe came home happy and well cared for.”
“Kristina and her husband were wonderful to work with and they took amazing care of Arthur. Easy drop of and pick up. Clear communications and no confusion. Great updates throughout his stay. He was loved and treated as one of their own dogs. And it showed. I will definitely be using this family again for my boardings in the future.”
“Tena was wonderful to work with! Very responsive and flexible. She brought my dog home very last minute which was super helpful. We will definitely be using Tena again! 10 out of 10!!”
“Amazing communication! We had a vet boarder that stopped boarding and let us know 3 weeks before thanksgiving! Brad and Kelli came through. Sent us pictures the netire time. They took our dog on walks and apparently their kids played with her the entire time because she got back home and just took a nap! Thanks!”
“Karenly took great care of our girl Kaley! She creates a calm and secure and loving environment. I received great update pictures during Kaley's stay. I will not hesitate to reach out to Karenly for additional pet sitting! I feel that I can go on vacation now not feeling guilty about leaving my little fur baby.”
“This is the second time Ryan and Lisa have kept Teddy and he was right at home during his stay. They kept us up to date on how he was doing and sent pictures. Very responsive with any questions. Super nice and kind people who definitely love animals. Teddy and our family thanks y’all for another great stay!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Karen
Travis & Julianne took great care of Lola for us! We left her for the first time with them, for two weeks, and Lola appeared to fit right in with their family and pets. They were good about sending us pics almost every day, and we had no worries or concerns. I won't hesitate in recommending them or calling on them again. Thank you! :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Karen 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 Karen.
<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 Karen 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.
