We were so thankful to have found Tabitha. It was so nice to receive her pictures, and we felt secure in knowing that our Baby was with a family that was playing with her and holding her while we were gone.

Olivia did an amazing job watching our 2 year old mini golden doodle. She gave us frequent updates and ensured that our pup was happy and cared for throughout his entire stay! I highly recommend Olivia!

Iuliia was fantastic and really helped us out over Thanksgiving by caring for our elderly Golden Retriever. She was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated throughout our trip. We returned to a calm, well-cared-for dog. Highly recommend her for professional, dependable pet care.

Grace is a very sweet person that truly loves animals. She did an exceptional job sitting with our fur babies. She sent us text messages and pictures throughout their stay to keep us updated on how well they were doing. I felt so comfortable with my dogs in her care. I will continue to use her services and I would highly recommend her to others. Awesome!!!!

We left our dog Stanley with Edwin and his wonderful family for a 9-day stay, and they did a fantastic job! Edwin kept us updated with photos and messages, showing Stanley eating, getting brushed, going on walks, and settling in. Anytime I checked in, Edwin was quick to respond and always communicative. We had a great feeling about the stay after a meet-and-greet with Edwin and his family a week before our trip. From the moment we arrived, Edwin took the leash and was confidently in control of Stanley. We’ve done meet-and-greets before where the sitter gives your dog a few pats and focuses more on chatting with you. This was more like a test drive, where Edwin paid close attention to how Stanley handled the new environment. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they took the responsibility seriously and that Stanley would be well cared for while we were away. Stanley is pretty easy going... until it thunders. Then he becomes very anxious. Unfortunately, there were a few storms while we were away. We left medication to help, but it takes awhile to kick in and it sometimes only takes the edge off. If you have a dog like this, you feel pretty helpless during these storms. There is no magic fix. You make them as comfortable as possible, but the only way "out" is getting through the storm. Edwin was proactive with the medication, and along with his family, helped Stanley ride out those storms as well as we could have ourselves. We’re grateful to Edwin and his family for taking such great care of Stanley and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter.

I can’t thank Stephanie enough! We took a long trip overseas and she watched our dog Bruce and treated him so well! We would receive updates daily, she clipped his nails, gave him oatmeal baths to help calming his skin and loved on him as if it was her own! Not to mention that our dog had a blast with her dog Fern! Highly recommend and would definitely use her services again!

My fiancé and I had to leave for a few days to Houston for her niece’s baptism. Lisa watched our dog, Scout, for us and she did an amazing job. Her dog and Scout got along very well. She has a nice/big backyard that he was able to play in! She made sure to send us updates/photos everyday while we were away, which was so thoughtful and made us feel good knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely be calling Lisa again for sitting!

We had an amazing experience with Allina. She made the entire boarding process seamless and stress-free from start to finish. Our two pups, Luna and Zoe stayed with her for 5 nights while we traveled out of state, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. Allina kept us updated throughout their stay with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She was attentive, communicative, and truly went above and beyond to make sure both our pups felt at home. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy pet sitter!

About: Hi! I’m Mirella, a Texas State University student and lifelong animal lover. I’ve owned and cared for pets for over 8 years and have experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m currently the proud owner of a cat. I’ve pet-sat for friends with dogs of all sizes and personalities—from Anatolian Shepherds and Pit Bull mixes to Dachshunds and Maltese—and have experience caring for puppies through senior dogs. I’m also comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. Years of caring for animals have taught me patience, responsibility, and confidence working with pets of all temperaments. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’m committed to providing personalized care that keeps them happy, healthy, and on their normal routine. In my free time, you’ll usually find me running, hiking, or spending the day at the river, so I’m always excited to get outside with energetic pups. Whether your pet enjoys long walks and adventures or prefers relaxing at home, I’m happy to match their pace. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My schedule is flexible, and I do my best to accommodate each pet parent’s needs. I keep my Rover calendar up to date and am happy to work with you to schedule walks and drop-in visits that fit your pet’s routine. Whether they need a quick potty break, playtime, or a long walk, I’m here to help! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, administering medications, exercise, and any special requests. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments and will always treat your home with the same respect I would my own. You can expect regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

As an anxious dog mom who had never left my dog with sitters before (and a former Rover sitter myself), I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Savannah and Gabriel! They were incredibly communicative and responsive, and sent daily photos and updates that gave me so much peace of mind. Churro is still a puppy and potty training, and they were so understanding and even helped continue working with her. She had the best time playing with Kona and the other small dogs. I was able to fully enjoy my trip knowing she was in such great hands. We’ll absolutely book with them 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! ?

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!

FAQs for Boarding - Martindale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Martindale on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 2,571 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Martindale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

98% of Martindale sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Martindale landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

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.

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 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.
