“Namita was awesome! My boxer seemed quite happy in all the pics she sent. And I really appreciated that she was willing to extend his stay when we had vehicle issues that kept from getting home. I will definitely be using her again!”


“Could not be more pleased with the care our li’l Bud got. Buddy was treated like family and we could see he was having a great time with all the updates and pictures we received. Giovanna is a great communicator and truly loves taking care of our furry loved ones. I can’t possibly imagine anyone better or more loving than Bud’s new favorite Auntie Gio for taking care of our pup.”


“I can’t recommend Esteban and Alana enough! We traveled out of the country for a week, and I was absolutely at ease knowing my pup was in such capable and loving hands. They kept me updated with adorable photos and messages, and it was clear my pup was happy and well taken care of. Truly, they went above and beyond. Five stars all the way!”

“Talia and Andrew were the most accommodating sitters ever. They met us a week before so our animals could get acquainted and then we did a stay over to see how it went. They kept me up to date on my furbaby's interactions with the other animals with pictures and even took special time when she would not eat to try to get her to eat. They have great accommodations and plenty of room for the animals they have and ones sitting to be comfortable. They are completely 100% fabulous and we will use them for our upcoming trip and future trips as well.”


“Janiya did a wonderful job when it came to keeping me updated on my fur baby , taking pictures and taking care of him !! I really appreciate her a lot for accepting my booking last minute and for all she had done to make things easier for my last minute vacation. Thank you 💕”

“Cathy was amazing! She provided us with pictures and pawgress reports of our three dogs while they were under her care. She was very detailed and thorough. Can’t wait to bring them back to her!”

“Alexandra was amazing with our two dogs, Abby and Bear, during their 6-night stay with her! She sent daily pictures and updates and stayed in communication with us the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She is incredibly friendly, reliable, and clearly loves dogs. Abby and Bear were well cared for and came home happy and relaxed. We will definitely be booking with Alexandra again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful pet sitter!”

“I had a wonderful experience with Ariana. She took great care of my 4-month-old puppy, and I really appreciated her attention to detail in following my specific instructions. It gave me peace of mind leaving my young pup in her hands. I will absolutely be using her services again.”

“This was Pippa’s second stay with Elise, and she was just as wonderful as the first time! Elise is so sweet and caring, and it’s such a good feeling knowing Pippa is happy, comfortable, and well taken care of while we’re away. She’s always great about sending timely updates and cute pictures, which we really appreciate. It’s clear Pippa enjoys her time with Elise, and we couldn’t be happier with how both stays have gone. We’re so glad we found her and will definitely be booking with her again! ❤️”

“Juan and his family were great with Bonnie. It gave me great comfort to know that Bonnie was with people that would love on him and nurture him. Thank you Juan for taking care of my fur child, I’ll definitely be there sing you all again.”

“Samytra is an amazing pet sitter! She took very good care of our 2 dogs and would send periodic updates letting us know everything was ok, sending pictures, etc. Our dogs also loved her, you could see them super relaxed on her lap and having fun out in the backyard”

“Wendy was THE absolute best!! She was very kind and accommodating!! I had complications happen with my move and at the last minute, she didn’t hesitate to keep my babies an extra day!! I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend Wendy!! And, while I don’t often have a need, any time I do, she’s who I will go to 💕”

“Caitlin’s home was a wonderful place for our dog, Hazel, to stay while we were away! She has an amazing backyard and the home feels very safe and loving for dogs. Caitlin was accommodating of our schedule for dropoff and pickups and sent periodic updates and pictures of our senior pup that put our minds at ease. We feel lucky to have found such a great dogsitter in the area!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ WOW! I’m so glad I found Max on Rover! I genuinely feel like I found a GEM. There are so many sitters on Rover, and finding someone I truly feel comfortable leaving my dog with for an extended period of time is not easy, especially because I travel out of the country quite often. This felt less like boarding and more like a luxury doggy spa vacation! Max has an incredibly spacious home, and the backyard is HUGE, with beautiful, well kept green grass and plenty of mature trees that provide shade for outdoor time. Zara had so much space to run around, explore, and enjoy herself. It never felt like the typical boarding experience where dogs are confined for most of the day. What impressed me even more than the space was how much Max genuinely cares about animals and how knowledgeable he is about dogs. He understands the importance of respecting their personal space and boundaries, reading their body language, and recognizing what they’re communicating. He also gave me helpful information about Zara’s anxiety and how to maintain a calm environment to help reduce her stress. I really appreciated that because it showed me that his care goes beyond simply feeding a dog and letting them outside. He actually understands dogs and pays attention to their individual needs. I was also amazed at how quickly Zara warmed up to him. She typically has anxiety and barks at people she doesn’t know, so seeing how comfortable and happy she became with Max gave me so much confidence in him. He maintained Zara’s normal routine, gave her plenty of room to run around, and even let her sleep on his bed! She looked so happy and calm that it honestly felt like she was on vacation. And his communication is PHENOMENAL! He kept me updated every single day and sent pictures and videos from morning through evening. That gave me so much peace of mind because I could actually see how Zara was doing throughout the day instead of constantly wondering if she was okay. I’m so glad I found Max on Rover. I finally feel like I’ve found a sitter I can genuinely trust and feel comfortable leaving Zara with for a longer period of time when I travel. I will absolutely be booking with him again and recommending him to my friends and family. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about animals, understands dog behavior, respects their boundaries, communicates exceptionally well, and provides a loving home environment, I highly recommend Max. Zara definitely found herself a new favorite sitter! ❤️🐾”

“Great pet sitter! They took excellent care of my spoiled Chihuahuas and treated them like their own. I received numerous daily updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter.”

“Stacey was absolutely amazing and super comforting after our pup exhibited anxious and stressed behavior. She communicated an unfortunate incident with love, care, and understanding. She is a true gem and I am very thankful for her loving heart and her family.”

“Francesca is amazing with our two high energy doodles. They truly get so excited for daycare or boarding with her. Francesca has been flexible with our schedules (my husband and I are both nurses).”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Old River-Winfree 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 Old River-Winfree.
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 Old River-Winfree 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.
