“Terry was fantastic with Peeny. It was our first time using Rover and we’re nervous to leave her, but felt Terry and his family were a great fit after meeting him. He was very professional and keeps a safe home for your pets.”
“Lindsey and her family are great!! Apollo had such a great time. Her house is beautiful and such a great place for any dog. Apollo felt comfortable as soon as he walked in. We will definitely be coming back if we can squeeze in with all her other regulars.”

“Hugh was so good and accommodating for our dog, and we were most pleased with his daily photos and updates during the 12 day stay. We were also pleased with his compassion, understanding, and the well-being of our dog, including the daily medications required to be given. They developed a true friendship. We highly recommend Hugh for your pet’s next stay and give him a 5 +++ star rating.”

“Ani is always amazing! She takes care of our sweet pup with so much love. Molly absolutely loves being with her and Ani is always so caring and attentive with her. Even when our pup recently had surgery and had extra care duties, Ani stepped in with no hesitation! The only sitter we truly trust to watch our dog.”
“Chee was fantastic; communicative, dependable went the extra mile by walking my dog and even helped me learn a lot more about my dog. We will absolutely repeat with Chee”
“I highly recommend this dog sitter! She was incredibly professional throughout the entire process, and it was clear she truly cares about the dogs in her care. The property is fantastic for dogs - there's plenty of room for them to run around and play outside, which was perfect Rocky. I was especially impressed that she had a nice kiddie pool set up for him to cool off in, which he absolutely loved. When I picked Rocky up, he seemed so happy and content from his stay. It's such a relief to find someone who provides such wonderful care. I will definitely be using her services again!”
“I’m sure that my dog had a perfect time with Brianne and her family because after it came back looks so calm and relaxed, and also as soon as I had dropped it at her house, she send me a picture of Jack sleeping like a little baby, she is very nice with me, but the most important thing is that’s my dog feels good with her.”
“This is our best Rover experience, ever! Leilani and her family took excellent care of Kylo and sent us pictures of him smiling. I highly recommend them for amazing pet care that will exceed expectations.”
“Zeke and Bailey had such a great time. It was so wonderful to get pics of the fun they were having. I felt so comfortable knowing they were both in good hands. Definitely rebooking in the future!”
“I can't express how awesome Michele is!! Took care of our puppy the whole week and loved him as her own dog, took him for daily walks, and played with her dog. Not only that, but every day she sent pictures assuring us that he was doing well and wishing us to enjoy our vacation. Also, her husband, Jeff is amazing and loved our dog very much!! Thank you, guys! 🤍🤍🤍😊”
“When Walter is with Malcolm and his family we don’t worry. We know he’s in a loving caring environment. He loves staying “at camp” and when we ask if he’s ready for camp he gets so excited. Can’t say enough about how well Walter ( our spaz) is taken care of and loved while we’re away. Our thanks to Malcolm and his family.”
“What a great experience. Nancy and her family were so nice and welcoming! We had a meet and greet before booking to make sure it was the right fit, and they took such great care of my pup. They made the anxiety of leaving him so low. Such a great family to choose! Thank you, Nancy!”
“Vidya and her family were amazing! They took the best care of my dog Daisy and sent constant updates and videos. She was quite happy the entire stay 🙂. I can definitely recommend them for care of your dog.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ponder on Rover is $39.96 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,625 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.
