“Natali, thank you so much for watching Daisy on short notice! Love love loved the picture updates! I feel very comfortable having you watch Daisy again.❤️ This was my first time using Rover. I was a little nervous leaving my baby with a stranger but Natali was super sweet & Daisy took off with her shortly after I got into the car, making me more relaxed! Daisy seemed very comfortable with her.”
“Darcy was incredible! Milo has stayed with her twice now, and each time he comes back so happy. She sends lots of pictures and updates, which I really appreciate. I’ll absolutely be using her again!”
“Carol and Ken took great care of my precious chug, Oakley, while I was out of town for a long weekend. They were sweet, friendly, and very accommodating. Carol was great about sending me daily updates with pictures! Oakley was completely exhausted the night she came home from Carol's. I know she had a blast! I'll definitely be using Carol again!”
“Matika was great, the comunication and her service was impecable, she even washed some of my baby sheets. I got a pic everyday and she looked happy. By the time of pick up we had some troubles and arrived late, but she was patient and understandable. Definetely repeating for my next trip. Thank you very much for everything.”
“Shaneika is truly a gem! From the moment Bruce met her, he felt right at home. She’s incredibly sweet, transparent, and so in tune with puppies—it’s clear she genuinely loves what she does. She follows every instruction with care and always keeps me updated, which is huge for my separation anxiety. For the past 4 months, she’s been our go-to while I travel for business and pleasure, and we’re not going anywhere—she’s a keeper! 🐾🖤”

She was flexible with our schedule before and after traveling out of the country. I highly recommend her and plan to use her services again in the future”

“I can't thank Melanie enough for taking such wonderful care of Gunny while I was out of town! From her swift response to my initial inquiry to her warm welcome when we arrived, the entire experience was fantastic. Melanie made Gunny feel right at home, and I truly appreciated the daily updates she sent - they gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Her home provided a clean, safe environment where Gunny could relax and enjoy himself. It was so comforting to see how well Gunny got along with Melanie's dog! Always nice to see him make new friends and enjoy some canine companionship during his stay. It was such a pleasant surprise to discover how much Melanie and I have in common! Those connections made me feel even more comfortable leaving Gunny in her care. I would absolutely recommend Melanie to anyone looking for pet care, and I'll definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Melanie, for going above and beyond to make our experience so positive!”
“I needed someone at the last minute to watch my Loki and Mark was very accommodating, professional, genuine animal lover, respectful and Loki took to him quickly. That made me feel good about trusting Mark with Loki and he did not disappoint! He was communicative and made sure to send me pics. I’ll be using his services again for sure! Thanks Mark”
“Mariah was the perfect sitter for our dogs! I was a bit nervous leaving them with someone I don't know but that feeling disappeared after having our meet and greet! Mariah has excellent communication and updated me with photos and how the dogs were adapting to the environment. The dogs seemed to have a good experience and were treated kindly. Her son was also an excellent helper! Should I need a sitter in the future, I will definitely contact Mariah! I highly recommend Mariah! Thanks again!”

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.

There are 2,413 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Porter. About 92% of Porter sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
