“Sophia and Frank took excellent care of two kittens on short notice. They provided consistent updates and were extremely kind throughout the kitten's time there. Your pet would be in excellent hands with this lovely family!”
“I had a great experience with Claudia through Rover! She communicated really well and kept me updated with messages and pictures of my dog, Cecil. I was a little worried leaving him since he’s an older dog, but her experience with senior pets made me feel so much more comfortable. I could tell he was in good hands. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
About: I love animals. I have had pets since I was a young. I have a lot of patience and always enjoy my time with them. I currently work from home. I can manage my schedule very well since my profession allows me to work by appointments only. I can make time before, during and after work. I will take great care of your fur babies. They will be in great caring and loving hands. I’m also very respectful of peoples property.
“We are very happy with the care provided to our puppy. Maya is a very energetic puppy and sometimes it is hard to keep up with her but Brittany seems to have been able to handle her perfectly. Maya was very happy when she got home. Brittany was even nice enough to pick her up and drop her off. I will definitely book with Brittany again should we require a sitter. She seems like she really loves all animals and genuinely cares for them. I highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“I am so happy to have found Rubi through Rover to care for Poppy. I had peace of mind during my travels as she communicated with me via text and video about his care and well being. I would definitely reach out again for this service.”
“We trusted Samantha with our dog and we are appreciative of the great care she provided him. It was our first time away from him and her daily pictures and comments during his stay reassured us that he was well. We will soon be glad to have him stay with her again .”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve cared for and walked all types of dogs, from small breeds to large dogs up to 80 pounds, old and young. Friends, family and neighbors trust me because I have a calm, caring energy that dogs naturally respond to. I’m dependable, loving and treat every pet as if they were my own. I am currently retired and home most of the time, so your pet will receive lots of attention, affection and frequent walks. I truly treat every fur baby as if they were my own. I live in an apartment, so walks and outdoor breaks are frequent. When house sitting, I always follow the owner’s instructions to keep pets comfortable and routines consistent.
About: I have experience caring for pets by providing them with a safe, loving, and dependable environment while their owners are away. I ensure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive plenty of attention and exercise, and follow any specific care instructions. I treat every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their comfort, happiness, and well-being. Caring for pets is already a natural part of my daily routine. I have two miniature schnauzers, so I’m used to feeding, walking, playing with, and giving pets lots of love and attention every day. Having my own dogs has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. Because pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, I can easily provide dependable, caring, and attentive support for other pets as well. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special care instructions. I make sure they always have fresh water, plenty of love and attention, and a safe, clean environment. My goal is to help pets feel comfortable, happy, and stress-free while their owners are away.
About: I have taken care of animal since I was 13. I have fostered for many organizations and truly believe that the care of an animal is truly a rewarding experience. When I find an animal in need, I never hesitate to help however I can ❤️ I work full time as a special education teacher, so I am only available weekdays after 5 pm and have weekends available for the best care I have a fenced yard, kennels and separate rooms for dogs that I foster or shelter. When family of friends need help I help by taking their pets out and making sure all their needs are met.
About: I have experience with dogs and cats new born to senior. I have taking care of animals for over 5 years and enjoy every second of it! I am able to care for those with special needs and promise to take care of every pet with care and respect! (And make sure they have a lot of fun!!) I currently work very part time only on weekends in the evening. I am not in school so I have an open availability! I also wake up early and enjoy going on walks! I will always be around them and make sure they have a fun time with me while we are together. As well as constantly making sure they have plenty of water and food, as well as keeping multiple stations for using the restroom. For cats I have multiple litter boxes, I have puppy pads for little dogs and a big fenced backyard for bigger ones!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
There are 104 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Rio Hondo. About 100% of Rio Hondo 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 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.
