“Megan is my go to sitter. My dog wasn't feeling too well on his last visit and I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands with Megan. She is also always gracious in any changes that happen in my business travels and willing to work with me. Thanks Megan!”

“We had a fantastic experience with this pet-sitting service. The couple who watched our pets for two nights went above and beyond to ensure they were well cared for and happy. We received regular updates and lots of photos, which helped us feel at ease while we were away. It's clear they gave our pets excellent attention and we could tell they were in good hands. The entire process was smooth and we will definitely be using their services again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Kristi and her family were awesome with my babies! They felt at home from day one! I got daily updates and they were so happy. When they got home there were exhausted from having so much fun! Can’t thank them enough!”
“If you're looking for a sitter who will treat your dogs like family, Elle is the one. We booked her to watch our two pups, Remy and Nala, and from start to finish she went above and beyond in every way. She sent us thoughtful, detailed messages about how the dogs were doing, and reading them made being away so much easier. She told us about Remy going wild in the sprinklers with her kids (he got so excited it was hilarious) and how he played "ice cream man" in the playhouse. Even our more timid one, Nala, worked up the courage at her own pace to fit in throughout the week. Everyday they had a new adventure and I loved reading about it. Elle clearly has a gift with animals. She was communicative, warm, and so attentive to their personalities. We felt totally comfortable knowing they were in her care. We can't recommend Elle enough and will absolutely be booking her again. Thank you for loving our babies like your own!”

“I chose Jasmine as a last minute resort and when I say I'd choose her over and over again, as well as HIGHLY recommended her, I mean just that!! Jasmine is an amazing communicator before, during, and after her services has been rendered. The amount of love and attention she provided our family pup was top tier. I almost felt as if our pup wouldn't want to return home. Lol but we all know that dogs are loyal. I will be using your services again for formal and informal visits, as like you stated, pups need social lives as well. Again, my family and I thank you so much for everything. You are the best!”


“Garrison watched my dog for me over the holidays for a week and I highly recommend him as a sitter. He was great with communication from the beginning when I first booked with him and keeping me updated during the stay. Milo was very happy and obviously well cared for while I was gone. Thank you, Garrison!”

“Arshawna has been a great fit for my dog who has gotten very comfortable when she stays with her. She seems happy when I drop her off. Arshawna always responds quickly to requests and keeps me up to date with notes and pictures.”

“Jordan came through last minute for us and was awesome! She has an awesome house for dogs and it was well worth the drive from Austin to drop my pups off. Provided lots of pictures and updated. Will definitely book again when needed!”
“Josh is always awesome! Takes great care of my 2 labs and he even took my Coosa to vet due to blood in her urine while I was out of town. Made sure my girl was taken care of. Josh is super awesome with his animals and treats mine like one of his own. Couldn’t recommend him anymore!”

“I needed a sitter for my two pups asap. Ayanna responded immediately and was able to help. This was a significant relief and the boys loved her. She knows how to handle dogs extremely well. Definitely will use her again.”

“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.”

“Kyra was amazing with our two dogs. Drop off and pick up were super easy. She had a beautiful back yard for them to play in along with a lovely home for them to cool off and be lazy in. I received updates on their stay along with acute photo. I'm already rebooking with her again!”

“Jen took care of my three Australian Shepherds for an entire week, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, everything went smoothly, and I have absolutely no complaints. What I appreciate most is how patient and understanding she was with my dog Princess, who is very shy and uncomfortable around strangers. Princess tends to bark and keep her distance, but Jen handled the situation calmly, respectfully, and professionally. She gave Princess the space she needed while still making sure she was well cared for, which meant so much to me. Knowing my dogs were in good hands gave me real peace of mind. I’m incredibly grateful for Jen’s care, reliability, and kindness, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again or recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter.”


“Sara really impressed us with how quickly she picked up on each of our dog's individual personality and needs. She noticed subtle cues, adjusted routines accordingly, and even helped them settle in and sleep comfortably through the night — something that’s not always easy for our pups in a new environment. You can tell Sara and her family genuinely loves and understands dogs.”

“Excellent experience with Leslie. Our Great Pyrenees came home happy with no stress. Leslie did a great job of keeping us informed on Hazels daily activities and shared several pictures. Will definitely check on rebooking her first when we travel in the future.”

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 Little River-Academy 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 Little River-Academy.
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.
You and your Little River-Academy 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.
