“We have been using Catherine and her family for almost 4 years now. Our little dog Rudy stays with them any time we need a sitter. Rudy loves them and their 2 dogs they own and always has such a fun time. It’s definitely a mini vacation for Rudy as well! Catherine and her family take care and love Rudy like their own and I always know he’s safe and in good hands. This past trip our flights were canceled and they had to keep Rudy one more night and they were so understanding and accommodating and were happy to have Rudy one more evening! They truly are the best!”


“My pup takes time typically to warm up to people yet with Sabrina she gets so excited that she pulls the leash a bit because she can’t get in to her home fast enough! Daisy and Blippi (dog and cat) as well as her young children all play real well with her. Sabrina’s great communication and quick responses sure help make my time away so much easier. We have rebooked twice already. Your calm nature and attention to detail are so appreciated!”

“Kelly was amazing! Cheyanne loved her stay and Kelly did a wonderful job keeping me informed and sending pictures. I would definitely recommend Kelly to anyone looking for someone to keep their fur baby.”

“We can’t thank Becky and John enough for taking such wonderful care of our fur baby, Tasso! They were incredibly flexible with their availability, always checked before giving him extra treats, and loved on him like he was their own. We always get multiple updates throughout each day that we are away, which we greatly appreciate and look forward to. He came home happy, healthy, and clearly so loved. This has truly become a second home and safe space for our pup — we’re so grateful and can’t wait to book with them again!”


“Anita and EarlEx were kind, attentive and uplifting to us and Tony. We received updates everyday. This let us know how Tony was doing. Gave us peace of mind Tony was in good hands. Highly recommend Anita and EarlEx.”

“Terry spoils my dog in all the right ways. She LOVES staying with him, and I love the peace of mind I get knowing he has taken such good care of my fur baby every time I book with him. The photos he takes while I am out of town are so good, I would think I have booked a professional photographer! Highly recommend!”

“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!”

“Diana took great care of my Dog Wooly and was very understanding when my car broke down out of town and I couldn’t come to get Wooly as scheduled. She updated me daily on my dog’s condition and activities and gave him his meds as I instructed. Wooly will definitely love to stay with Diana again 🐾”

“I can’t say enough good things! My dogs come back tired, happy and Leilani is always so accommodating without hectic schedules including last minute extensions. We’ll be continuing to send our boys to her for years to come!”

“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!”

“Last minute booking so we could go out of town to support our kiddo on a college soccer trip. Lucy was happy to see Lacey again and did well on her first overnight stay. She had lots of play time and socializing and we will definitely book again in the future. Thanks!”

“Mark was very friendly and so accommodating. He was very knowledgeable about Dobermans and was not startled when Maizie jumped at him. Will definitely plan on using them again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
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.
