About: I’m an experienced dog and cat foster. I have five cats of my own. I’m able to give medicine if needed as well I am a stay at home Mom, who doesn’t really leave the house so your animal will have constant love and attention with me. I have a very large yard as well as young children to run around and play with your dog. I also have a large crate and small crate if that is what they are needing. If your dog does not like cats no worries, my cats have their own room so they will not be around each other.
“Sapphire was great! I never had personal contact as my husband dropped off and picked up but she was great at keeping me updated over texts. Will definitely use her services again”
“Celeste is a super sitter - 5 star plus plus. She took excellent care of our chocolate lab, a very senior member of our family who is 17+ people years old and needs a little extra help. We are very happy with the love and care shown our old girl, and have found our new sitter of choice.”
About: I have over 20 years of experience from breeding to boarding to dog walks. Exercise is an important part of your dog's day so is love and affection. My daughter, Haleigh, and I, provide several different services to accommodate your needs. Our services can be set on daily, weekly, or on as needed basis. During our visits we come to your home and provide one-on-one time, love, and attention to your fur baby. Time can be for a leashed walk, yard play, potty time, feeding, or any combination. Please feel free to contact us with any questions, we are here to help you feel at ease. I currently work part-time Monday thru Friday. I'm off at 1:00 so have plenty of time to show your fur babies the attention they need! I have 4 children and 1 fur baby. We live in a smoke free, pet friendly home. Our gurl is spoiled rotten, as she should be 😉
“Lindsey was amazing as a host for our dog Milo - she was very easy to work with and flexible and Milo had a great time interacting with other dogs there (which he wasn’t really used to previously). She took pictures and sent videos along the way which was great to see - highly recommended!”

About: I love to bond with pets. Dogs especially, they are like built in best friends. However, sadly I am not a fan of house cats. I work from 5am-2pm daily, and I have college on Tuesday evenings. I am free any other time. Just let me know what’s best for you. I treat them as if they were my own. Love them how they should be loved. They and friends. They have hearts too and should be treated as so.

Kristin was great! She took very good care of my 2 poodles. I enjoyed that she sent photos and videos of them in their daily routine. I will definitely be using her again. Her home is set up very nicely to take care of our babies with a large fenced in private yard for them to run and play. Don

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Port Arthur on Rover is $37.45 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 46 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Port Arthur. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Port Arthur 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 Port Arthur.
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 Port Arthur 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.
