“Andrew and is family really went above and beyond taking care of Daisy. She tends to get a runny tummy when she’s away from us and he took really good care of her. He made her rice to soothe her tummy. She seemed happy when we came to get her, Great family!”

“Thank you so much for caring for Bentley while i was away. I knew he was in good hands the moment we met. The daily updates helped me as well, i loved knowing about his day. Ariel n her family were so sweet & welcoming!!”

“Lucy couldn’t wait to get in the door to see Ruth and her other furry friends. It’s so nice to know she loves going there. I used to have to drag her in the door at her other sitter’s house.”


“Our dog is as needy as they come and we needed to find someone to care for him and give him a ton of love! Erin & Gary were so kind and sent us a ton of pictures to make sure we knew our dog was doing well. Highly recommend them!”

“I can’t thank Bobbi enough! She took in my dog on super short notice and took amazing care of him for two days. It is such a relief finding someone you can trust at the last minute. I could tell he felt right at home and was well loved the whole time. I will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Our pom had a great time with Juan and his family! Juan sent regular updates and photos of him throughout his stay. Their dogs and cat played with him, his kids gave him lots of cuddles, and Juan/his wife had a new WFH coworker. :)”

“Mary and her husband took great care of our dogs! They kept in touch, sent pictures, and were really flexible. Our dogs were happy when we picked them up! We will definitely use them as a dog sitter again!”

“Katie is the sweetest person I’ve ever worked with on Rover. She took care of our fur baby like it was her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was consistent in her communication and kept us updated regularly. We loved his daily pictures! She took extra care of Duke when he was a little too distracted to eat his meals, so she hand fed him. This was much a vacation for Duke, that it was for my husband and me. I cannot recommend Katie enough. Thank you!”

“Marie was fantastic! Very communicative and went the extra mile in making sure my pup was well taken care of, and did all on relatively short notice. Your dog is is in good hands staying with her family”

“Linda took great care of Julie during her first stay at her home. She paid close attention to Julie’s condition and kept us updated daily with photos and thoughtful descriptions. We felt completely at ease knowing Julie was in such good hands with Linda!”

“Traci was absolutely fantastic with Togo! She sent pictures throughout the stay, which really put my mind at ease. She was also incredibly understanding and easy to work with. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again!"”

“Salene took such great care of my dog! I was a little nervous since it was her first time being around a cat, but Salene was incredibly patient with the introduction and made sure she felt comfortable. She truly treated my dog like her own, and I loved getting updates and photos of them playing together. I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again!”

“Elaine and Steve were absolutely wonderful to my pooch. They are very kind and welcoming. I had no worries at all leaving my pooch in their care. Elaine kept in touch with plenty of pics and prompt replies. I definitely recommend and will rebook in the future.”

“I would give 10 stars if I could! Carrington and her family are amazing. My business trip consisted of flight cancellations, long delays, and heavy traffic. Carrington was so warm and understanding. She provided updates and photos at every request. I also had a flat tire when I arrived to drop off Charlie, and her husband changed my tire. I got home safely and with a happy pup! Highly recommended!”


“Carly was great! She was accepting of a last minute request and catered to the dogs’ needs. Whether if they were docile, lapdogs or forever active and wants to play, she would do it all. The dogs left as happy as ever!”


“Bertha was wonderful! She was so easy to work with and booking was a breeze. It was our first time leaving our puppy but she knew exactly how to make us feel comfortable with leaving him. We received pictures and updates every day, it was so nice to see him be so happy even though he wasn’t with us!”

Brooke did a great job taking care of our two little dogs while we went on vacation. It was our first time leaving them behind and her daily messages with updates and pictures made us feel secure that they were being loved and cared for just as they are at home. We would use her again!

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!!

Keyuana did an exceptional job taking care of Buster for 3 weeks while we were out of the country. She provided daily updates with pictures, and treated Buster with so much love and care. She truly treated Buster like family. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter and she will be my go-to pet sitter from now on.

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 Pet Boarding in Melissa on Rover is $36.63 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 2,558 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Melissa. About 93% of Melissa sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
