Can’t be more grateful to Booke for the services offered. She always went above and beyond proving necessities for my Pet’s stay. Buddy felt so loved that he started missing Brooke. Must say Buddy has found a second home and will certainly be my go to for future. Thanks Brooke for all you did!
**Rachel and her family took amazing care of our puppy and treated her like she was part of their family. They even took the time to work with her on leash walking, which we really appreciated. We received updates throughout her stay, and it gave us great peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Thank you again for everything! We would 100% book with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.**
Kerry and Michael were incredibly kind and took wonderful care of Galleta. She came home happy and relaxed, and they constantly shared photos and updates, which gave us a lot of tranquility while we were away. Thank you both for being such excellent hosts , we truly appreciate it.
Sagun was great and Max had a great time during his stay. This was my first time leaving Max and Sagun made it so much easier. She kept me well informed and sent photos of how he was doing. This was a trial run for out family vacation at the end of the month and I feel so much better now leaving him since I know he will be in great hands and well cared for. Thanks Sagun!!
We used Jay & Caitlin again recently for a last minute family emergency, and they were amazing. They responded quickly and were incredibly accommodating on short notice, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during a stressful time. Just like before, communication was great, and they kept us updated with messages and photos. It’s such a relief knowing we have people we can trust when unexpected situations come up. We’re so grateful for their help and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for dependable, caring sitters!
We had an excellent experience with Tyra while she cared for our dog, Kona, for a two-week stay. Kona was incredibly well taken care of and clearly had a blast with Tyra and her family—it truly felt like a home away from home. Tyra’s communication was consistent and thoughtful throughout our time away, which gave us great peace of mind. She was also very flexible and attentive in adjusting to Kona’s schedule and needs, which we truly appreciated. We couldn’t have asked for a better boarding experience and will absolutely be booking with Tyra again. Highly recommend!
This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be happier! My dog Kimmy was so well taken care of. She came home happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. I was a little nervous at first since I’d never tried the service before, but Kirizma made the whole experience easy and stress free. I’m so grateful for the wonderful care and will definitely be using her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Melissa on Rover is $36.63 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 2,491 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Melissa. 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.
95% of Melissa 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 Melissa 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 Melissa 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 Melissa.
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 Melissa 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.
