“Shanieka was absolutely amazing! My furry little Shea had a blast spending time with her family while I was away. I really appreciated how great Shanieka was at communicating with me throughout the whole process. It was my first time leaving my precious fur baby with a new sitter, so I was feeling pretty nervous. But Shanieka totally put me at ease by explaining exactly how she would take care of Shea and keeping me updated every step of the way. I'm so grateful for her help and can't wait to use her services again in the future. Thank you, Shanieka! You're the best!”
“Our dog seemed to have a great time with Marcus and his pups! He was very responsive and sent daily video updates. I would definitely recommend Marcus to others for boarding.”
“This was my first time using Leslie and she was beyond fantastic! She really took the time to understand each of my dogs needs and took great care of them both. She sent lots of photos and updates and I could tell they both felt comfortable and right at home. Knowing they were well taken care of while I was gone was a huge relief and Poptart and Wally would be so excited to go back!”
“Kelsie is a pleasure to work with. She looked after our dog for a month. She provided pics and videos and stayed in frequent contact throughout our time away. I would 100% work with Kelsie again and happily recommend her to anyone else. 10/10.”
“Super week for Sophie while we were on vacation! She was so well adjusted when we came home, usually she is upset with us for several days when we return from a trip. Not this time!! Obviously she had a great week too! Janine is fantastic and I feel so blessed to have someone I can leave our girl with and not have to worry while I am away. This is the second time I have left Sophie in her home for a week at a time and both experiences were wonderful. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!”
“Tong has been an amazing sitter for our pets, Pisi and Gunner. She took them on regular walks, kept them engaged with fun activities, and always sent us frequent photo and video updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. Pisi even became best friends with her dog, Lu Lu, and it was clear they all had a wonderful time together. Our pets were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved being with her. We would love book Tong again and highly recommend her!”
“I'm incredibly grateful to have found such a wonderful place for my three fur babies to stay! Leigh boarded my cats at her place and went above and beyond to take care of them while I was away. From regular updates and photos to ensuring they were well-fed and comfortable, Leigh's attention to detail and genuine care for animals truly shone through. I returned to find my cats relaxed and content, which speaks volumes about the quality of care they received at Leigh's home. I highly recommend Leigh's boarding services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring environment for their pets!”
“I could not have asked for a better dog sitter for my pup! Sorjuanita and her family took precious care of my Boba! I had to travel for a weekend, and I was so worried about my dog, but Sorjuanita put my mind at ease. She sent me daily updates and super cute pictures of my dog, and she even took her for walks, and out an about. My dog came back happy and healthy, and I couldn't be more grateful to Sorjuanita and her family. I’m especially grateful as they were very caring with my high maintenance Shih tzu who was recovering for some digestion issues. They keep me updated on her well-being and made sure she took her meds as well as her daily vitamins and her grooming/fur brushing. I know my Boba can’t wait to go back!”
“Aseela is so nice and sent so many photos! She was patient with my dogs to get them to relax in a new environment. She took them on walks on the less busy streets because they get overstimulated easily.”
“Rachel was wonderful with our two dogs! She was great with communication and sent tons of pictures and videos every day. The dogs went on tons of walks and were loved on like they were her own!”
“Cheryl was amazing. She gave Codi a bath throughout his stay and feed him and keep in contact with me the whole time. Codi was even smiling in his pictures she sent over. He will be back. I thank you so much for being attentive.”
“Courtney was amazing. She accomodated our drop and pick up times and took great care of our dog! When I picked her up she was happy! We will definitely book with her again.”
“Jason and Natasha were wonderful with George! They were thoughtful, kept me updated, and clearly gave Georgie lots of love. They were also incredibly accommodating with a few last-minute changes, which I truly appreciated. I would absolutely book with them again!”

This isn’t my first time leaving my dog with Melissa and he had a great time! She updates me daily and I know my dog was very well cared for. I almost didn’t make it back due to weather issues and she willing to be flexible and let my dog stay longer if needed. Will be using her services again!
Ashley was great with my Malinois. My dog instantly warmed up to her and integrated well into her household. Having other dogs around was a new experience for mine, and Ashley worked with her to slowly meet the other dogs as she gained confidence. Ashley was very communicative and provided lots of updates, photos, and videos. She kept my do happy and engaged with lots of play sessions, walks, and puzzles
Jacquelynn was amazing with our dog! We took a week long vacation and she watched our 10 month old puppy. This was the first time that we had been away from our girl and was nervous. Honestly, there was absolutely no need to be nervous! She sent tons of photos and messages, let us know when she ate, and just kept us update the whole time we were away! Highly recommend and will use again soon!

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.
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.
95% of sitters in Mount Houston 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 Mount Houston 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 Mount Houston.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mount Houston. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Mount Houston 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
