“Our dog Poppy really enjoyed her stay here. We got daily photos that always put a smile on our face. They were very flexible on drop off and pickup times which was extremely helpful for us as a busy family. We would definitely recommend again!”
“Jessica watched my 3 dogs for a week and they had the best time! She sent daily updates and pictures to reassure me that they were all doing well. I highly recommend Jessica and hope she will be available to watch my dogs in the future!”
“John and Becky took wonderful care of our two Scotties while we were recently on vacation. They are a kind and caring couple that truly loved our dogs. We received updates and pictures from John and Becky throughout our trip. When we picked the dogs up to go home, Piper didn’t want to leave! We will definitely book with them again on our next trip. Thank you for opening your home to our babies. 😊 Dina and Brian”
“Sabrina was awesome with our dog and he seemed to really enjoy his time with Sabrina and her family. I would highly recommend Sabrina and I will definitely be using her services in the future.”
“Luda is AMAZING! She takes such good care of our dog (Papos). Papos had to take medicine when we had to leave, and Luda had no problem giving him the pills he needed. We have booked Luda three times by now and will continue to contact her. 100% recommended!”
“Terry did a great job with my elderly dog. He sent pictures showing her enjoying her time there. I feel he went above and beyond keeping her engaged. He also is willing to do Farmer's Dog food for your pet. I will use him again next time we need a sitter for my dog.”
“Key is awesome! She was able to accommodate last minute. My pup is well taken care of. This is the second time I've had Kelly watch her and will continue to use her in the future. Kelly takes great care and sends me pictures daily. I will definitely be using Kelly again in the future!”
“Tonia always takes such loving care of our dogs Rocky or Lucho. We fully trust her and always come back to her because we know they are in the best hands. She’s kind, attentive, and truly cares. We’re so grateful for her!””
“Angie took good care of Peanut. She invited us to her home to meet Peanut prior to his stay and answered all our questions. We felt confident that he would be in good hands! We received daily pictures and updates. Thank you Angie!”
“Ziegen had a great time this past weekend while I was out of town! Julie sent pictures daily. I feel like this is a better setting for him than a larger boarding place. There were a couple of other dogs there. They were laid back and seemed to get along well with Ziegen. He'll definitely be back!”
“1st-time using a service like "Rover." I will NEVER take our dog to a Boarding Facility IF I don't have to. Our dog is accustomed to a tranquil environment and was never kenneled. Imagine being in a loud facility, with barking dogs and caged for days (walking breaks provided, but, no freedom to roam.) I found Rover after boarding our dog 3 times. My 1st experience and I'm thrilled I did. You can filter to sitters who take 1 dog at a time, no children, etc. Ok about Amy: What a GEM! Communicative, Clean, genuinely Kind, and Professional. My husband and I live close to Amy (another plus,) but even if we moved 1 hour away we would still rebook with Amy as long as she's available. Upon pick-up our dog ran to us, but as we recapped with Amy and her husband our dog kept going to them too. I told her I was unsure if he would be happy to see us because he is living his best life at "Aunt Amy's" lol. I'm a "non-worrier," however, I didn't realize how much Amy's' consistent checked-in with photos and a couple of videos helped put my mind at ease, my soul at peace, and allowed me to fully enjoy my honeymoon without thinking too much about our dogs' wellbeing. Thank you!!!”
“first time using Rover and Leilani. Leilani rocks! this is the first time we have left our furry one with anybody and we were feeling a little apprehensive at first. But after meeting Leilani and the fact that there was another dog(s) there, it made for a quick, easy transition. the pics Leilani sent throughout Millie's stay brought smiles and comfort at a distance. highly highly recommend Leilani!”
“Sarah watched Nico for 11 days during Thanksgiving Break. And he had a lovely time with her and her Family! This is Nico's 3rd time with Sarah and he feels very comfortable with her and has lots of fun. She sent us videos and pictures each day which made us feel great! Highly recommend her.”
“This is our second time using T’Anna. She takes great care of our little pup! She sends updates with pictures regularly. It’s so nice to have someone close by that we can trust with our sweet girl!”
“My Coco absolutely loves this family!! They take such good care of her. I always know she is in good hands when I drop her off! She is a regular with them and will continue to be one!”
“Such great people who will treat your pet like their own! They provided so many updates and photos and you can see how much love they poured into my dog. So grateful to have found them and will definitely book again.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ponder on Rover is $39.96 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,642 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ponder. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
97% of Ponder sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Ponder landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ponder 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 Ponder.
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 Ponder 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.
