“Zulma was great! She let me updated the whole time. I can tell my boys were exhausted after having so much fun with her. She has a big yard for them to play in and a great neighborhood for them to walk in. She took amazing care of my puppy and older dog”
“Oh my gosh—Zasio just got back from his day with Purnell and he had an absolute blast. She took him to the beach and sent tons of videos and pictures of him living his best life. Meanwhile, I was at home dealing with a flat tire and this little guy was basically on vacation 😂 I 1,000,000,000,000% recommend Purnell. She’s the best. She doesn’t just watch your dog—she treats them like family. On a side note, I love that Purnell is so close to me—literally just down the road. And I have to share this because it says everything: I was out walking Zasio on the opposite side of the neighborhood (not even near her street), and he dragged me across the street, went straight to her house, and sat in her driveway. We actually got lucky and saw her just as she was pulling out, and he was SO happy to see her. Afterward, I literally had to carry him out of sight because he refused to walk away and kept looking back at her house 🥹 He absolutely adores her—and I can tell she genuinely loves him too.”
“I changed plans last minute and he accommodated by coming by my place instead and even took Leo to the dog park and sent pictures/videos. He kept me updated the entire time and really did a great job.”
About: Having grown up with dogs since childhood, and now living with a senior dog and a bunny, I have several years experience of being responsible and caring for pets! My family's Great Dane is extremely high maintenance with allergies, so I am able to administer medication or provide any additional needs. My college roommate adopted two kittens as well, so I have experience taking care of fun felines! Exotic pets are also welcome, I will happily care for them alongside your cats/dogs if needed. I am a recent Texas A&M graduate with a marine biology degree in the process of preparing for grad school, so I will have a large amount of time dedicated to caring for your pets! The majority of my time is spent supervising my bunny at home. Caring for pets in your home, it is my goal to maintain your pet’s normal routine as much as possible, providing ample exercise, play time, and walks as needed, including their current bedtime routine. While you’re away I will make it a priority to provide frequent updates on all the fun we’re having!! I’m also happy to provide extra services like retrieving the mail and watering plants as needed:)
“Kim is so awesome! I bring my dog to her everyday and she takes extra special care of him. I highly recommend her to anyone especially those who have elderly dogs. She is super gentle and her helper Bronx is a great companion for socializing. Two thumbs up!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for at least 10 years, as both a dog owner myself and as a favor to friends and family. I’m comfortable around them, and have no issues having them in my home when needed. I’m currently working from home in a very flexible role, which allows for frequent potty breaks, snuggle breaks, and walks. There may be days that require me to be out of the home for a few hours a time but that can be discussed upon booking. I can crate your dog, if that is your preference. If not, I have a pretty big kitchen with a doggy gate where they can be in (if required). I have a fenced yard and three small dogs. If needed, my dogs have their own area where they can remain (completely happy) while I’m caring for your pet. If the stay is longer than 2 days, I’d definitely try to socialize the dogs unless asked otherwise.
“Diane H. and her husband made my very nervous mini aussie feel right at home. My dog has separation anxiety and within minutes of me being gone, she allowed them to hold her! They cater to your dog’s personality- they immediately assessed what my dog needed to feel comfortable. I will be using Diane H. for boarding in the near future and know that my dog will be VERY well cared for, and I will have peace of mind!”
About: grown children, I have plenty of full-time availability, love, and attention to give to your furry family members! I am a lifelong dog lover with extensive hands-on experience, having lovingly raised five Chihuahuas through their senior years. My home features a spacious, fully fenced backyard in a quiet, gated neighborhood—perfect for safe play and daily exercise. Since we currently have no resident pets, your dog will enjoy my complete, uninterrupted focus and care!" I’m a stay at home mom so I’m always at home and have lots of time available. I love taking care of pets and spending my time with them I have a fenced backyard and also has an extra protection at the bottom so the dogs won’t be able to get out. I also live in a private gated neighborhood where not a lot of cars drive by.
About: I have been a dog lover, owner, foster and sitter for several years. Dogs are such sweet and innocent animals, their individual personalities are so cute and can be so funny. They are so smart, I just enjoy them and being around them. I work from home and take care of my own dogs, I have three. I have a large fully fenced backyard and am a recent empty nester. So time, I have! Haha I work from home, dogs are allowed on furniture and roam while working. Potty breaks are every two hours, and play time is pretty much all day! Bedtime is kennel time till the morning. Feeding will be based on individual needs.
“Sabrina was great with our dog Creed. The times he’s boarded at commercial places he’s very excited to come home. This time he wasn’t as excited which tells me he enjoyed himself at her place. Sabrina was readily available and has a great home with a yard. I will definitely reach out to her again.”
“Rachel was so wonderful! She had a really sweet personality and my dog absolutely loved it. Her home is very clean and drop off/ pick up was very easy. She gave great updates through the day to calm my worries, and was very prepared! Rachel was very caring towards my dog and I know he had great walks, because he has been very relaxed after picking him up from Rachel’s care. Would book again!”
“Kaniona made my puppy feel at home by the looks of her daily updates via videos and photos. Kaniona was also respectful, and great with communication within the same 24 hours. If there was any accommodations or issue to address, she understood well. Absolutely would call on her for sitting or drop in again. Thank you for taking care of my Missy.”
“Thuy and Andrew are amazing dog sitter. My foster dog Glow was skittish all morning because of the unfamiliar place but they were so patient. At the end of a day, Glow warmed up and played with other dogs! We definitely will come back.”
About: I currently have two small cocker spaniels, and my sister has three dogs—a cocker spaniel, a small poodle, and a lab/pit mix—that I help care for pretty often. I’ve also helped watch dogs for friends and people in my circle over the years, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, sizes, and routines. Even some packs that needed to be separated for being sensitive to certain stressors at specific times. I worked at a dog bakery where dogs were constantly coming in and out, which gave me a lot of experience interacting with different breeds and temperaments. Being around so many dogs helped me learn how to read their behavior and make sure they feel comfortable and safe. I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to take care of your pets and give them the attention they deserve. I’m also on a fitness journey, so walks and runs are definitely something I enjoy and can include for dogs that need the extra exercise. Your pet’s safety and comfort are really important to me. I try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel relaxed while you’re away. That means sticking to their usual feeding times, walks, playtime, and any instructions you leave for me I pay attention to their behavior and how they’re feeling so I can notice if anything seems off. I’m also patient with shy or nervous pets and let them warm up at their own pace. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space and make sure pets stay safe by keeping doors and gates secure and their environment calm and clean. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable and cared for while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your North Houston commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 dog, 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
