“(boarding) Aunt Vicki provided frequent updates/pictures that helped put my mind at ease while being away from my rescue for the first time! She was very flexible with pick-up time when my flight was delayed.”
“She has been wonderful taking care of my chunky boy. Hands down so sweet and communicative with me at all times. This was my first time booking with Rover and she made the process so easy. Definitely if I ever need her again in the future will come back.”
“Amy takes great care of my Rocky boy! I never have to worry when I leave him with her. He gets lots of attention and plenty of fetch time! Thanks, Amy!”
“Ashley was so great with my special needs cat, Mitsuri! She gave me updates with pictures and I could see from the photos that my Mitsuri was comfortable with her. It definitely set my mind at ease as I had never left her with anyone before. Will definitely use Ashley again if I need care for Mitsuri in the future!”
“This entire experience was fantastic. Eva was super accommodating to my dog Jack and sent me multiple pictures pictures daily to show me that Jack was having fun and doing well. She was immediately responsive. Her home is very well kept, very clean and with tons of open space. Her children are very well mannered and in the pre-adolescent phase of life and obviously love animals too. I felt like Jack was very well loved in her home. Also, Jack came back to me very calm and worn out (which means he was playing and having a blast the entire time!) and he is more respectful about getting on furniture after staying at Eva's home. Not sure if she did any training with him but he seems to have matured a bit!”
“Taylor and David were amazing! They made me feel comfortable boarding my golden retriever for the first time. They scheduled a meet and greet and were willing to answer my questions. They sent pictures and kept me updated during his stay. And he had so much fun running and playing that he slept all day his first day home. We will definitely be repeat customers!”
“Jocelyn was hands down the best Rover experience I’ve ever had. From the moment I met her, I could immediately feel the warmth and care she would provide for my dog. She sent daily pictures and activity updates, and the level of attention and love she gave him went far above and beyond. My dog came home so happy — I couldn’t recommend her more highly.”
“Steven is SO awesome with our pup and is regularly communicating and providing picture updates. He is caring, thoughtful, and goes the extra mile while taking care of our dog. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone needing a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter!”
“Van took exceptional care of my dog, Ren, while I was away on a two-week trip to Japan. Being so far from home, it gave me incredible peace of mind knowing Ren was in such caring and capable hands. Van kept me updated throughout the trip with photos and messages, and it was obvious that Ren was happy, comfortable, and well loved. When I picked Ren up, he looked healthy, relaxed, and had clearly been treated like family. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and who genuinely cares about your pet, I highly recommend Van. Thank you again for taking such great care of Ren! 🐾”
“Elizabeth provided excellent care for my dogs. I was very grateful to be able to book her so close to Christmas to watch my three dogs. She has a clean, welcoming space for them, and she shared photos throughout their stay, which was greatly appreciated. When I picked them up, it was clear they had been well cared for.”
“Dori was awesome and I highly recommend!! Thanks for taking such good care of my pup. She was available to accept my request last minute and I appreciated the updates I got each day while Zen was there. Dori and her family are lovely and my pup had a great time with them!”
“We had a last minute trip come up and were so grateful to find Luong and his family who took amazing care of our two dogs! They took to him immediately and came back tired and happy—he clearly loves dogs and vice versa. Thank you for the peace of mind on our travels!”
“Jennifer gave us peace of mind while we are on vacation. She continued to give us updates and sent pictures of our baby. This is Kelly’s vacation home while we are away. See you soon Jennifer.”
“Lauren took excellent care of my dog, Kumo! She kept me updated throughout her stay and made sure she was happy and comfortable. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch Kumo again and I highly recommend her!”
“Diana was great watching Chewie. I received videos and pictures of him so I knew he was doing well away from home. He came back happy, and was even well settled on her couch when I came to pick him up! Her communication was clear and I would happily use Diana again.”
“Lucky had the best time at Kristen's house and came home very happy. Kristen was also very gracious to work with our unforeseen change in schedule. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Courtney was very communicative and let me know how Zora was doing! Zora seemed very happy and comfortable with her which I love! Will definitely reach out again!”

Jennifer and her family were amazing and so easy to communicate with! It was so clear they took such great care of my golden, Wrigley, and Jennifer shared updates throughout Wrigley’s time with her family. Would highly recommend to anyone who’s looking for a reliable sitter!
Dawn was amazing w Sadie. She was happy the whole time she was there. Dawn was very accommodating with my schedule changes which were many due to the fact that I got sick and needed to delay my trip, bcs I couldn’t be around my sister whose immunity was down from a stem cell transplant. While I was there caring for her, I wanted to pick Sadie up on nights my sister was doing well and keep her overnight. Then when the worst part of the transplant caused her to go thru some very difficult symptoms and I needed to stay extra time, Dawn graciously kept her two more days, even tho she had out of town company. Granted her grandson made Sadie very happy and Sadie did the same for him! It was a relief to see she was having such a great time in the videos she shared bcs my dog really knows how to turn the guilt trip on me. I highly recommend Dawn! She will be very loving toward your pet!
Kristen was fantastic with Nova, especially for her first stay! She was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and welcoming from the start. I really appreciated the lovely updates and could tell Nova was comfortable and well cared for in her warm, welcoming home. I would absolutely recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a great sitter!
Danielle was wonderful with my dog Pogo! She hosted him for 3 days and 2 nights and took such great care of him. She sent regular updates with pics and videos, which I really appreciated. Pogo came back happy and relaxed. Would highly recommend her and would definitely book again!
Simply amazing! Courtney was very responsive and was great about sending updates, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My pup seemed comfortable, happy, and well cared for when I returned. I really appreciated how attentive and reliable Courtney was and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!
Rubi was amazing with Zoe! She kept me updated with lots of pictures and videos, and I loved seeing how much fun Zoe was having with her and Roscko. She was very attentive to Zoe, making sure she ate, drank water, and got plenty of playtime. I felt completely comfortable leaving Zoe with her and would definitely book with Rubi again! ❤️
My dogs absolutely love Jamie! I love that my dogs aren’t trying to rush out of her house when I get there like they use to when I would put them in a boarding facility so that’s a major green flag to me. They play so much at her house that when I get them back they are wiped out for days which is so nice. I’m so thankful I found Jamie and can go on vacation just knowing my dogs are in great hands and very well taken care of.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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.
