“This is the first time we've used Rover and the sitter Ayanna did not disappoint us! She sent a photo and updated us on how Bentley was doing while we were on vacation. We will be happy to use her services again in the future! Thank you!”
“Cassandra was an absolute gem! We were very nervous to leave our fur baby with anyone since we’d never done it before, but I was at ease after meeting her and seeing how much she truly loves animals. She sent video updates every few days, which really helped us throughout the 11 days while we were gone. I’d definitely recommend her!”
“Arshawna is a great sitter and Millie took to her easily. Millie is particular when it comes to people but Arshawna won her over right away. Millie has seperation anxiety and there was no sign of it when staying with Arshawna. She sent pics regularly and even a couple of videos of Millie. Millie even chose to sleep at the foot of Arshawna's bed. I am impressed how nuturing she is and how quickly she was able to make Millie feel at ease. Arshawna is the best.”
“Roshonda was absolutely amazing with my baby Nova! 🥹💖 From start to finish, she treated Nova like part of her family. She sent constant updates with photos and videos every day from long walks and morning runs to cuddles, naps and belly rubs galore!😆 Seeing Nova so happy, playful and relaxed while I was away gave me complete peace of mind. Nova was even in heat during her stay (which can make her extra sensitive and moody) and Roshonda handled it with so much patience, love, and care! Cleaning her, changing her diapers, keeping her comfortable and making sure she felt safe. She also made sure Nova got plenty of exercise and attention, whether it was walks, time outside, or playtime with her daughter and her friends. Nova clearly loved being part of their little crew 😂. I could tell how much Roshonda genuinely cared, she communicated so well, made sure I always knew how Nova was doing and went above and beyond in every way. Nova is happy, calm and clearly loved. I can’t thank her enough! I’d recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and amazing with dogs. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 💕🐶✨”
“Excellent experience. Thus far the best experience using Rover. I felt comfortable leaving my doggy with her immediately. I received daily updates, and communication.”
“Destiny and Mariana are AMAZING, they took great care of my pup. They sent me updates with photos and videos everyday. Sometimes twice a day. They were on time and my pup was safe. They also expressed how great my puppy was with their dogs. Book with them they are great, no complaints. I will be rebooking with them in the future.”
“Jadyn was very nice and sent pictures through out my doggies time with her. I would definitely book with her again. My babies seemed happy and playful upon picking them up. And she has a few toy poodles which is plus for my two doodles.”
“Ashli was absolutely amazing. Our kitties absolutely love them. They are such kind people. We received continuous updates with photos and even videos. We will absolutely use them again.”
“Heather was amazing. She took excellent care of my dogs and made me at ease leaving them with her. She was quick to respond to my messages and sent me pictures. I would definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone needing to board their dogs.”
“Kelly watched my dog Red for the weekend. They became best friends fast. He didn't want to come home with me he loved her and her family so much. She kept me updated with photos and texts throughout the weekend. Amazing. We will be using her again.”
About: I have cared for animals my entire life, including dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, gerbils, ferrets, and turtles. I’ve had 5 dogs and 6 cats throughout my life and currently have 3 additional cats to the 6. Growing up around so many different animals has taught me how to recognize their individual personalities, needs, routines, and comfort levels. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning, companionship, and providing plenty of love and attention. I truly enjoy being around animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. As a stay-at-home mom and Army Reservist, I have a flexible daily and weekly schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I’m home most of the day, so I can provide frequent attention, bathroom breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I’m able to work pet care into my routine without rushing, and I enjoy having animals around throughout the day. My schedule also allows me to be flexible with different pets’ routines and their owners’ needs. I care for every pet based on their individual routine, personality, and needs. In a client’s home, I would follow their instructions carefully, keep their normal feeding and bathroom schedule, provide exercise and playtime, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection. I would also keep their space clean and comfortable and communicate with their owner about how they’re doing. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away.
“Sarah is so amazing with our dogs! One is super high anxiety and he gets very comfortable at her house! It’s a blessing to not have to worry about him as much when we are gone.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Killeen is $40

So glad to have met Dominique! We love our pets, of course, so finding the right person to board with is more than a house and pet experience. The first thing that struck me about Dominique, was heart! This lady has heart! She understood our challenges of leaving a puppy- the things that must have been going through his mind and the challenges of our GSD rescue who has never left us since being adopted, 3 years ago. We were going to kennel, but Dominique made this such a better choice for us. She trimmed my difficult GSD’s nails and gave me tips on how to do it when I make the attempt! There was a little puppy training going on too as I noticed no darting out the doors as we have had a problem with. She was great with their mostly raw food diet, and navigating their big dog/little dog relationship. Our fur kids were happy, cared for and loved by Miss Dominique and we feel we found a gem near our home!
I was really nervous because I needed someone to watch Sugar and Cookie at the last minute and wasn’t sure I would be able to find someone I could trust. I’m so glad I found my sitter! They did an excellent job taking care of my dogs and made me feel completely comfortable while I was away. The communication was great every day. I received updates about Sugar and Cookie, including what they were doing and their daily activities, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell they were being well cared for and getting plenty of attention. I would definitely recommend this sitter to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and great with dogs. I will absolutely use them again!
Kaylei took excellent care of our doxie while we went away for the weekend. He can be anxious when he’s not with me, but she was so sweet to him and he was able to settle right in. Kaylei sent plenty of pictures and updated us on how our baby was doing. We will DEFINITELY be leaving our pup with her again! I would recommend her to take care of your pet too!
Stacy did a great job! He was able to take one of our dogs to the vet for an appt also which was awesome. Very communicative, and sent pictures often! My dogs came home happy and healthy 🩵 we will be using Stacy again if we ever need our dogs to have a safe place to stay!
Hands-down the best pet sitter!!!! Awesome experience, highly recommend, and will most definitely use again. Maya is very attentive and kept me updated with pictures and messages. Leaving my kiddos in her care gave us complete peace of mind. In fact, she is the only person we trust to watch our dogs. Thanks again Maya.
Emmanuel is an outstanding sitter. We booked him for the weekend while we were traveling out of town. His accommodation is A+. He advised of any requirements like dog food, toys, beds, bowls, leashes, etc which we appreciated knowing ahead of time. He asked all the right questions regarding feeding or special care needed if any of the pups required it. He sent updates and pictures during our pups boarding. They loved his backyard so much they didn’t seem to want to come inside at times. He has a very nice place and big yard for them to roam as well as have all the zoomies they want. He took care of them and we are so thankful/appreciative of his services. He is also readily available regarding communication. We had a hiccup on our way back to pick the pups up and he was understanding of the situation. We highly recommend and will definitely use him again in the future. (:

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.
95% of sitters in Killeen 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 Killeen 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 Killeen.
<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 Killeen 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.
