“They were so sweet! Sent pictures each day and when I ran late getting back They offered to keep her an extra night. They also woke up at 130 am so that I could pick her up because I didnt want to spend another night without her!! Amazing sitters.”
“Luliia took care of my dog, Sly, over Christmas while I was out of town and was very kind and caring with him. She was very attentive about his care instructions which made me feel at ease. She made sure he got a lot of exercise and sent me multiple updates per day. Her son was also very helpful with Sly. Sly was very calm and happy when I picked him up. Thank you Luliia!”
“Olivia did a fantastic job with our pugs. I am an anxious person and was feeling nervous about leaving my pugs for 10 days while out of the country. Olivia sent me multiple pictures and updates every day, morning and night. This helped me feel so secure in our choice of pet care. It seemed like our pugs truly had a great time and had lots of play and cuddle time. They also loved her puggies, Tuna and Oskar. When we dropped Tito off, his nose was looking dry and I asked Olivia if she could butter it while we were away. When we picked them up, Tito’s nose looked brand new! I would rebook Olivia for our next trip in a heartbeat! Thank you so much!”
“Edwin provided such a great experience for our best boy while my family had to travel. This was my first time using Rover and I’m so glad that the app was recommended and we found Edwin. Edwin sent photos, communicated great and even accommodated my request to do a meet and greet before confirming a reservation. I honestly couldn’t say enough good things about Edwin and Charlie’s stay with him and his family — 10 out of 10 and highly recommend to anyone local to Kyle.”
“Luke seemed very happy with Grace & John. He went on walks, snuggled & sat on laps. Things he doesn’t normally do at home sad to to say.🥹 They even brought him home to me when it wasn’t safe for me to drive. A strong 5 statewide and highly recommended!”
“Yan is wonderful and always exceeds our expectations. We know that she takes such great care of our 2 fur babies during their stay. She sends photos and videos and it always appears as if the pups are having such a fun time there. We 🩷 Yan and will continue to use her for all our future needs. She truly is special.”
“Stephanie was an absolutely AMAZING sitter! My pup is fear-reactive and this was my first time leaving her with a Rover sitter so I was a bit nervous, but Stephanie took such good care of her and made sure I had plenty of picture and video updates. :) I’m looking forward to booking with her again!!”
“Denise provided a loving, comfortable environment for my pup. Very good about his care, communicating with me, and all around professionalism. Will happily have her sit for us again!”
“Kyrischa was absolutely amazing with our dog! We really felt like she took him in and loved our pup like he was her own! We especially loved the updates and pictures throughout his stay where he was smiling ear to ear in every picture! Seeing how happy and comfortable he looked gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was like he was on a vacation of his own with her! We felt completely at ease leaving him in her care, and we will definitely be trusting her with our pup the next time we’re out of town. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Highly recommend!!!”
“Jade is so sweet! She had our 4 month old puppy for 4 nights and was very communicative and helpful throughout the whole process. My dog loved playing with her dog Hiccup and they did lots of fun activities together. Will be booking again!”
“I am so grateful for Morgan! She took great care of my dachshund for an entire week! She asked me how often I wanted to be updated and she continuously updated me to my request. My dog was on medication while she watched him and she would always update me with the time he took his medication (which I didn’t ask her to do) but it gave me peace of mind knowing he never missed a medication! She’s is a beautiful soul and your dog will be lucky to be loved by her while you’re away! ?”
“Offered to watch my dog on short notice for 3 days over the weekend took care of him, send pictures daily, and communicated very well. Pick up and drop off for very smooth. Couldn't be happier!”

As always, Thomas and his family are great! First time watching our new puppy who also had a broken leg and everything went super smoothly. Couldn’t trust Thomas more and it’s great to have that relationship with him and not have to worry about our dogs during vacation!
This was our 4th time having Thomas watch our dog. It is hard to find someone you trust to watch your pet, especially for an extended period of time but we are very fortunate to have found Thomas. Our Knut is in amazing hands with him and I never have to worry or stress. Knut always comes back healthy and happy. Thomas is definitely our forever dog sitter!

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 Martindale 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 Martindale 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 Martindale.
<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 Martindale 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.
