“Tisha is amazing!!! She takes such good care of Danny Boy and he loves Chunk. She does such a great job with communication and updates while away. She is my absolute Go-To!”
“Trinity was amazing! I can tell she really cared about our puppy. She worked with us very well when we had to do a last minute booking. She had great communication with us and remembered to give our puppy her medicine even though I forgot! Trinity also worked on teaching our puppy basic commands and potty training. We know our puppy, miss pickles, will definitely miss Trinity! We will be booking again in the future when needed 🫶”
About: I have been responsible for caring for animals my entire life, and caring for pets has always been something I truly enjoy. I volunteered at an animal shelter when I was just 12 years old, and growing up, my family always had dogs, horses, and livestock. I learned early on that animals depend on us for their care, safety, exercise, and companionship. As an adult, we have had several family pets, all of whom remained part of our family for their entire lives. One of our dogs was a diabetic Chesapeake Retriever who required daily insulin, which taught me the importance of being consistent, attentive, and comfortable with special care needs. I currently live at a lake house situated on three lots, giving dogs plenty of room to run, explore, and play. I have two rescue dogs of my own—a Lab mix who has been with us for ten years and a one-year-old Mountain Cur mix. My home has two floors with separate entrances, which allows me to safely and easily separate dogs if they need their own space or don’t get along. I enjoy taking my dogs on leash walks down to the lake and around the neighborhood, and I am always careful to clean up after them. I have also cared for my grand-dog in Queens, so I am very familiar with the responsibilities that come with caring for someone else’s beloved pet, including keeping their space clean and comfortable. Most importantly, I don’t see caring for dogs as simply a responsibility—I genuinely love spending time with them. I enjoy playing with dogs, giving them attention and affection, taking them for walks, and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while they are in my care. I understand that leaving a pet with someone is a big decision, and I would treat every dog entrusted to me as I would my own. I am retired so my availability is wide open. I have plenty of room both inside and outside for your pet. I live with an adult son so my dogs are cared for if i commit to sitting at your home. I have three lots so plenty of room for dogs to play. It is not fenced so I will always be with your dog whenever outside. I live in a rural neighborhood so I can walk dogs on a leash throughout the neighborhood including down to the lake.
“She did an awesome job watching my dog! She kept me updated the whole time, which gave me peace of mind, and she made my dog feel right at home. My dog absolutely loved her dog, and it was clear they had a great time together. I would definitely recommend her and would happily have her watch my dog again!”
About: I’ve cared for many pets in and outside of work! I’m a Veterinary Technician and I run my own business that specializes in Dog Sitting, Flight Nanny for Pets, and Puppy whelping. I’m comfortable working with puppies, dogs of all ages, cats, and nervous pets! I have plenty of time to care for 4-6 pets a day! I’m new to the area as I came from Missouri. Fairly open schedule ability during the week days. I strive to have a clean environment at all times, a safe environment for the pets and myself, and to make sure every pet is happy!

She is amazing and I trust her completely!!!!”
About: I have taken care of pets for family and friends for over 30 years. I love being the one that they trust to love on their fur babies. I am currently a stay at home mom and have plenty of time to devote to play time, walks, and feeding for our pet guests. I have 24/7 availability. My home sits on just over two acres, giving your pups plenty of room to explore, play, sniff around, and enjoy being dogs! I welcome friendly dogs of all sizes and offer both daytime care and overnight stays, so your babies can enjoy a little home-away-from-home experience while you’re away. I can also come to you so that your pet can keep their routine in the comfort of their home.
About: I provide loving, attentive care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. What sets me apart is my experience with both puppy care and training, as well as my patience and gentle approach with dogs of all ages. I can help reinforce basic commands, support potty training, and establish healthy routines for young pups, giving them a strong foundation. For older dogs, I offer calm, compassionate care with extra attention to comfort, mobility, and any special needs they may have. Whether it’s playtime, training, or quiet companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I stay at home. This allows me to provide consistent attention, frequent check-ins, and a flexible schedule to meet each pet’s needs. I’m available throughout the day for feeding, playtime, walks, and companionship, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. Because I’m home most of the time, I can easily adjust to your pet’s routine and give them the care, comfort, and attention they deserve. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets in both my home and my clients’ homes. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel secure and relaxed. In my home, I maintain a safe space free of hazards, keep a consistent routine for feeding and potty breaks, and provide plenty of supervision since I’m home most of the day. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I make sure they have a comfortable area to rest and play.

I have plenty of open availability and can fit your baby into my schedule! My goal is to eventually do photography and pet sitting full time! Each pet has their own personality and special needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 145 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Oakhurst. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
99% of sitters in Oakhurst 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 Oakhurst 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 Oakhurst.
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 Oakhurst 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.
