“Jennifer took great care of Bella. She sent pictures and a video. I felt very comfortable that she was being well care for while at her home. She was responsive when I would reach out and although Bella was happy to be home, I think she really enjoyed her time at Jennifer's. I will be a repeat customer for sure.”
“Best of the best! Victoria is excellent with my 2 boys, and goes above and beyond when I sometimes add in another family dog. They send lots of pics and the dogs always come home happy. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, so I’m comfortable caring for them through every stage from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower, more attentive approach. I’m patient with puppy routines and understand the consistency they need, and I’m equally mindful of the extra care, gentleness, and awareness senior dogs require. I genuinely enjoy being active, so long walks, playtime, and making sure dogs get the exercise they need is something I prioritize. At the same time, I’m very in tune with each dog’s personality whether they’re high energy or more of a couch companion and I adjust my care to fit what makes them happiest and most comfortable. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I’m currently in school and working part-time, which allows me to be home the majority of the week and flexible with scheduling walks, feedings, and playtime. During the week we are available, and depending on the weekend, we are often available then as well. My husband works locally and can come home as needed, so there is consistent care and attention for the dogs throughout the day. Because of this, I’m able to provide a stable, attentive environment where pets aren’t left alone for long periods and can stick to their normal routines. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and comfort level, whether in my home or a client’s home. At my home, we have a fenced yard that allows for safe outdoor play and exercise, along with plenty of supervised time inside for rest and attention. I follow feeding schedules closely, keep water fresh, and make sure each dog gets the right balance of activity and downtime. I’m comfortable with crate routines if that’s what your dog is used to our own dog loves her crate but I also welcome dogs who prefer their own bed and a more relaxed setup. In a client’s home, I aim to keep everything as consistent as possible with their normal routine, including walks, feeding, playtime, and any specific instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure.
“Arellys was fantastic, she was so accommodating and very kind. It was my first time using rover and leaving my puppy Nikko but I felt safe leaving him with her. We will definitely be going back to Arellys !”
“Julie was able to accommodate last minute plans when I needed boarding for my Chewie. She provided excellent care and shared lots of pictures throughout the stay! Chewie had a blast playing with her pups. I definitely recommend booking with her :)”
“Ms Janet was AMAZING!!! This was my first time away from my Lola and I was very nervous. I was able to do a video chat with Janet ahead of Lola's stay; immediately I felt comfortable. Ms Janet kept me up to date on Lola and sent pics and videos. I was very comfortable and grateful to have chosen Ms. Janet to watch my baby. I will definitely reach out to her again for further stays for Lola. Thank you a million times and more Janet!!”
“We love Ana! She takes such good care of our active dog, and sends pictures daily. Our dog CLEARLY enjoys Ana's house with lots of play, walks, treats, and good fun. Also, Ana is careful to keep up and reinforce training. Excellent dog-sitting!”
“Left Pancho in really good hands! I could tell he was comfortable right away. I also got multiple updates and pictures throughout the day which I appreciated a ton! Layla and Teddy were the best hosts.”
“Nancy was an MVP taking care of my dog. Nancy was super kind with my dog, she walked my dog as she needed, also my dog was able to stay in Nancy's furniture like the sofa and the bed, my dog enjoys those places. I highly recommend her to sit your pet.”
“Ann paid very special attention to our dogs and made sure to keep us updated multiple times every day! The dogs were brought on multiple walks/play sessions a day, and I felt comfortable on my trip knowing that someone capable and caring was watching my pups :)”
“Brenda was great with my fur baby Pepper. She sent me pictures, videos, and constant text messages. It was my first time using Rover services and leaving Pepper with someone other than a family member, I felt so much better knowing my baby was being loved and taken care of by Brenda and her daughter. ❤️”
“Lainey took tremendous care of our dog. She was very attentive to his needs, she did her best to make him feel right at home, she communicated any concerns or questions with us, and sent us updates while we were away. We will definitely have her care for him in the future!”
“Monica is very nice, genuinely cares for doggies and was caring and attentive to my Yogi. He played with friends outside, and got cuddles and snacks. Monica was accomodating and responsive. I received updates 2x day (pics and videos) and Yogi even got a report card and treat bag when picked up. Zero issues or complaints. Will definitely rebook with Monica.”
“Christina is just a blessing to our family, she loves our Mindi and really takes care of her like her own. Mindi is not longer a younger pup and needs patience and love. Once again her services and love to our puppy are so much appreciated. Thank you so much 😊”
“Geneva has kept our Snowy twice and both times were outstanding. She’s patient and communicative and loves animals. We know he’s safe and loved with Geneva and we will definitely come back!”
“Angel did an amazing job watching our dog Natsu! She sent pictures and gave regular updates on how he was doing. She responded quickly when I sent messages to her. Natsu was happy and content during his stay. We could not be more happy with the care she provided him while we were gone. We will definitely look for her the next time we are going out of town for Natsu.”
“Yvonne gave great care to our little dog! We were nervous about leaving our dog with a new sitter, but Yvonne sent us many photos and updates to make us feel comfortable. Our dog came home a happy doggie 🎉”
“I love using Susan and her girls to care for my dog, Macy! She always keeps me updated with the cutest pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind while i am away. Susan is also incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with. It’s clear that Macy is well cared for and happy every time we use her. I highly recommend her!”
“Carly did a great job with our pups and made us feel comfortable leaving them with her by sending daily photos and updates. She went above and beyond by bathing them before we returned!”
“Very pleased with my puppy's experience with Courtney. In home care offered our dog a less stressful stay vs staying at a Pet suites. He got more one on one attention and he came home happy puppy. Thank you!”

We are so incredibly grateful for David's amazing dog sitting services. Leaving our two dogs and going away for vacation is always hard, but David provides the ultimate peace of mind. The care he gives is truly five star. He sends regular updates photos and videos showing how much fun my dogs are having with him. He possesses a true genuine love for animals and it shines through in his dog sitting. David has been watching our dogs for few years, he's the best!

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.
