“Andrew was so sweet to my Bentley! He sent lots of pictures, played with him, walked him and babied him the way he is use to being babied. I will definitely be using his services again.”
“Michelle & Jeremiah were great! Leilani really enjoyed her stay and she slept like a baby when we got back home 😂 overall they were very communicative and kept me updated along the way with pics/videos. Great people & great service! They took great care of her. Definitely recommend.”
“Zulma and her husband were very gracious when I met them prior to leaving my dogs. They both were very gentle and kind to my dogs at that meeting. I felt very assured leaving them in their care. I received a lot pictures and videos of my babies. Although we had to cut our trip short due to incoming weather, I would surely leave my dogs with them another time!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Jillian in regards with poko's boarding! My dog was well taken care of, and I felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands. The communication was great, and I appreciated the updates and care throughout the stay. It’s such a relief to find someone trustworthy who genuinely cares about the dogs. I would definitely recommend her and will happily book her again! 🐶❤️”
“I cannot say enough good things about Lesly. She took such good care of my fur babies. She was always updating me and sending me pictures which I appreciated. I could tell my dogs felt so comfortable with her in her home. I would recommend Lesly to anyone I know and would use her for future bookings.”
“Munchkin seemed to have been taken care of really well. Of course all dogs are excited when they see their owner. But he wasn't tired from not resting like he is when he has left kennels. I will definitely use Carol and Glen in the future. Very clean environment for our baby.”
“Very outstanding communication, I received updates photos and videos everyday it helped a lot not being stressed or worrying if Moose was taken care of. Definitely will rebook when going on other trips. Jessica has truly made our first Rover experience very delightful.”
“I was overjoyed with the care Shyonda provided to my FurBaby!!! I received great communication and even some pictures and videos. I know that is always a bonus to have those extra perks from a sitter. She didn’t have to provide the pictures and videos but she did. When I picked him up he was happy to see me and I could tell he was NOT stressed. He was very content and looked well care for. I will DEFINITELY be using her service again!!”

“Austin & Courtland took amazing care of our sweet Iris for us while we were out of town and we could not be more thankful! She is an older dog and can tend to require a bit of extra attention at times with her allergies and stiff joints and they took such excellent care of her and accommodated all her (and our) needs. We were a bit nervous as this was our first experience with this, and it could not have been better and we are so glad it worked out so well with their sweet family taking care of our fur baby. We would highly recommend them and will definitely book with them again! Thank you again!”
“María is amazing! great at communicating and made me feel better about leaving my dog overnight (first time we’ve ever left our pup boarding) You can tell she loves pets and I felt great knowing my dog was left in good hands! I would definitely book again! Also a huge plus that she’s bilingual and made communicating easier for us! Thank you María 💗”
“Ashley was so incredibly kind during Hendrix's stay with her. I felt so at peace leaving my dog with her. Loved how she communicated and made sure I got updates and pictures throughout the day. Highly recommend her!”
“So many great things to say. Kolleen went above and beyond with our fur babies. One of ours had some special needs and Kolleen and her family were so caring and understanding. Smooth drop off and pick up. We even had specific instructions and she was so accommodating. We got several updates throughout each day with pictures and videos. Would highly recommend Kolleen.”
“Lacinda was great . It was my pups first time staying with anyone else. They seem happy . She took great care of them . Clean environment was a plus! Thank you so much . Well see you next time :)”
“Went on a trip for my sons birthday and needed a dog lover and reliable local caregiver ! I found Mrs.Lori on here and loved the entire interaction and process! Felt welcomed and assured all the way from dropoff to retrieving my dog. Even ran into issues coming back home which delayed us for hours but Lori made sure of constant updates, fast replies and super comforting demeanor! Absolutely recommend to any local pup lovers out there!”
“Norma and Edwin were great taking care of our pets. They were great with communication and provided multiple daily updates and photos. They were flexible with us and will for sure book them again when we need it.”
“Alana and Esteban were kind and accommodating. They sent us lots of pictures of our dogs enjoying their spacious backyard and of them just chilling inside with them and their kids. I could tell, while picking the dogs up, that they were treated well and had a great time!”

Alyssa was an amazing sitter for our GSD puppy, Senna! We were super upfront with her about Senna being sick and Alyssa did such a great job making her feel comfortable and loved with lots of play time. We had a few medications Senna needed and Alyssa was able to give them to her with meals with no issues. Communication while we were out of the country was super easy too and Alyssa was proactive in giving us updates throughout the week. It really put us as ease. We have full trust in Alyssa to have her care for Senna the next time we need it. Thank you so much Alyssa and Chandler for watching our sweet girl!!
My fur babies were well taken care of and loved on by Courtney and Mazy during the Fourth of July weekend. She ensured they were comfortable and certainly indoors during fireworks. Grateful for such great communication and pictures shared of our pets when away. We will certainly book her again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Porter on Rover is $32.1 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,349 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Porter. 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.
96% of Porter 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 Porter 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 Porter 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 Porter.
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 Porter 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.
