“Richard and Stephanie were absolutely amazing with our girl Bailey! She had a blast and got tons of love and walks. They will love your dog like their own and it really gave us such comfort while we were away. We will definitely be booking them for our next trip, they are the best!”
“Lisa was an amazing communicator and took very good care of my girl. I would HIGHLY recommend her services to anyone who asked. The house and backyard were beautiful.”
“Marci is THE BEST pet sitter. I couldn’t imagine leaving Mr. Darcy with anyone else. She truly loves all the animals she has in her care and will do anything to keep them safe and happy.”
“Amanda is great! She’s helped me out with dog-boarding my pup, when I needed it done so last-minute, and was so flexible and gracious with Ollie and I! Ollie had a blast and it was relieving to know he was in such good hands, getting lots of updates and photos! Will definitely reach out again! Thank you, Amanda!! 🎉”
“Teresa was absolutely wonderful with both of our dogs—our aging 13-year-old miniature schnauzer and our very active schnauzer/Cairn terrier mix. She went above and beyond by even providing her own wraps when our senior pup started having some out-of-character accidents. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was so attentive and compassionate. Her dogs, Cooper and Bandit, are adorable and our pups loved running around with them in her large, fenced backyard. It’s such a relief knowing our babies are in such good hands!”
“Ms. Yvette is always amazing with my pup. My dog has separation anxiety and is easily stressed, but she greatly enjoys herself with Ms. Yvette and rarely wants to leave when it’s time. If you’re looking for someone to give the same care and love to your dog as you do, she is your person.”
“Ana & her family took such great care of my dog, Lincoln! Ana provided updates through the stay. She was also very open and friendly in our meet & greet which reassured me, since this was only my second time boarding my dog with a stranger. I will definitely be using Ana’s services again!”
“A repeat booking with Yesenia! She’s the best sitter we ever had. She does the extra mile to take care of korra. Daily pictures & videos of korra. Along with taking her to the dog park so they all can run and have fun. Awesome sitter! Thank you!”
“Bridget and Trevor are amazing! I am so happy to have found them. Bridget was so accommodating and communicative and made me feel at ease leaving my boy in her care. I have never seen Dante so tired after a stay - he clearly had the best time running around with Kaia and Zoe. ♥️”
“Suraj and his family were EXCEPTIONAL!. He communicated frequently with photos and messages during boarding. They went above and beyond to take care of our beloved Lucy, especially during new years eve fireworks celebration! We will definitively be using their services again! They are wonderful! Thank you Suraj! The Burgos Family”
“My pup warmed up to Melinda very quickly. This was her first time staying at someone’s house while we were gone and from the photos and videos she has a GREAT time. She even come home with a new toy! Thank you Melinda- Neli will be back!”
“Stefanie was simply great! My big old baby boy was clearly relaxed & comfortable with her. Stefanie kept me updated with regular pictures & videos throughout my trip, easing my mind and making for a more relaxed vacation. I travel twice a year and Stefanie will be my go-to dog sitter for all future travel. Thanks again Stefanie!!”
“Kalen was the perfect rover host for my very large (130lb) pup. She communicated well and ensured my dog was safe and happy. I highly recommend her service.”
“George was exactly who we needed at just the right time. A true last-minute angel, he took wonderful care of our fur baby. When we ran behind on pickup, George graciously stepped in and helped us out. We loved receiving photos and updates showing our baby boy enjoying his home away from home.”
“Super great with our little pup. Even offered for pickup and drop off. Sent pictures and updates daily. Even got my little pup to feel comfortable to walk on a leash ❤️ highly recommend and will continue booking with them!”

Picked up my babies happy and healthy, definitely recommend to anyone looking for their pet to feel the same love and care they receive at home. Will be a repeat customer for sure!”
“So thankful for Marc for taking such great care of our Bella while we were away. He sent us videos and photos of Bella while she was playing and sleeping and doing all the activities. She even made two new fur friends. I 100% recommend Marc. Your fur baby will be home away from home.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ovilla
This was my first time using Rover and my puppy is only 5 months. I was so worried about how she would behave with someone she didn't know. To my surprise she gravitated to Ashley and she settled in very quickly. She sent plenty of pictures and gave a daily update. Ashley definitely gave me comfort while I was away from my pup. She will be my go-to sitter on the platform from now on. Thank you Ashley!
Lisa is a godsend, I would recommend her to anyone. Shr has a beautiful home and it is very clean. She sent several photos a day of my sweet Yorkie. Even my mom commented that the photos showed that he looked so peaceful and at home. I am so thankful for Lisa. She took amazing care of our puppy. She is a blessing in every way she will be the only sitter that I use in the area and she’s amazing! I literally could go on and on about how amazing she was. Any medications that my puppy needed, she went above and beyond to make sure he had them and was comfortable. We consider ourselves very fortunate to have found Lisa. She has an answer to prayer!!!
Constance enjoyed her stay. She seemed very happy when I picked her up. They followed all of my instructions with her feeding. The only thing that kept me from giving her a 5 was I didn't receive any pictures. Updates were only given when I reached out. Now Natasha was not feeling well which im sure impacted that area. I would definitely book again.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Ovilla 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 Ovilla 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 Ovilla.
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 Ovilla. On Rover:
- 86% 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 Ovilla 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.
