“Michelle and Jeremiah are wonderful sitters. From drop off to pickup, everything was perfect. Even though our dogs were there for a short stay, it was obvious they fit right in and were well taken care of. We will definitely rebook with Michelle and Jeremiah in the future.”
“My Bentley felt at home with Cathy. This was my first time having a dog sitter outside of having family keeping him. I can tell he enjoyed himself. Bentley will be going back again. She is a loving and caring person who loves dogs.”
“Esteban and Alana were amazing. The communication was quick and they sent pictures to check in. Just by talking with them as I was dropping off Makenzie made us feel like she was in good hands. Highly recommend them as a sitter and will be using them again.”
“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!!”
“Very responsive and sent lots of pictures. My flight waa delayed and put me getting in very late but she was willing to work with me to have my dog stay another night. Plenty of space for the dog to run around. Definitely reccomend.”
“I wanted to share our wonderful experience using a dog boarder (5 nights) for the first time! This sweet family provided loving care for our 9-year-old pup. Lori was incredibly attentive and patiently answered all my questions, which we really appreciated. It was great knowing someone was home with him all day. A special shout-out to Grandma Grace for sharing her lap during the day and her bed at night with Beau—he’s quite the snuggler! When we brought him home, he was well-adjusted and happy. We definitely recommend this family and will be using their services again in the future!”
“Jessica went above and beyond as far as communication, pictures, and making sure my pup was comfortable and attended to during her first stay and 4th of July fireworks. I can understand why she is so well rated! No notes :)”
“I highly recommend María Carmen's care because my dogs were not stressed or sad when I picked them up, I received constant feedback during their stay where I could see that they were well cared for, walked and even bathed when they needed it. something very important in my case is that María Carmen is bilingual and she was able to assist me in Spanish and English.”
“Courtney was amazing. She accomodated our drop and pick up times and took great care of our dog! When I picked her up she was happy! We will definitely book with her again.”
“Andrew is a great dog sitter! I can see how he genuinely cares for my pet when I drop her off. He sends pictures and updates daily which is great as it allows you to see how your pet is having a great time with other friends. I highly recommend Andrew for those of you looking for someone to care for your pet.”
“Great communication, frequent updates, and very easy to work with. Our dog was very comfortable and was well taken care of. Definitely recommended for anyone who needs a sitter. Will definitely be back.”
“Ashley did a wonderful job helping my dog ,Lacy to feel comfortable about being away from her family. She also kept in touch and sent pictures often to assure us that Lacy was adjusting well. I definitely will be using Ashley the next time we go on vacation. I would recommend Ashley to anyone who needs a animal sitter.”
“Would definitely return to this couple for doggy day care! They have plenty of land, which is perfect for my Corso! Super friendly couple, great with pictures and very communicative. Their home was very warm and welcoming. I highly recommend using their services!”

“Kaitlynn was amazing! I found her last minute and she was super accommodating. I was nervous leaving my new puppy I recently rescued. She sent me pictures daily and treated him better than I do. He came home and went straight to sleep so I know he was running around with her kids all week. Thank you so much!”
“Stacy was so accommodating to my unpredictable schedule. This was the first time dropping off my dog with someone and immediately I knew my pup was in good hands. Stacy sent me videos and photos through out my dogs stay with her. I trusted Stacy right away and will be using her in the future to take care of my fur baby.”

“Natali was amazing! I moved and needed a new place for my 10 month standard poodle, who’s large and vocal! Natali let me come by for a visit to meet Puka, and once she started watching her, she gave updates, videos and pictures. I knew she was in good hands! We got back from our trip and I think Puka wanted to stay! It was like summer camp for her! I’ll be a return client for sure! Thank you Natali!! 🤗”

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 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 2,374 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.
