“My pup takes time typically to warm up to people yet with Sabrina she gets so excited that she pulls the leash a bit because she can’t get in to her home fast enough! Daisy and Blippi (dog and cat) as well as her young children all play real well with her. Sabrina’s great communication and quick responses sure help make my time away so much easier. We have rebooked twice already. Your calm nature and attention to detail are so appreciated!”
“Last minute booking so we could go out of town to support our kiddo on a college soccer trip. Lucy was happy to see Lacey again and did well on her first overnight stay. She had lots of play time and socializing and we will definitely book again in the future. Thanks!”
“Kelly was amazing! Cheyanne loved her stay and Kelly did a wonderful job keeping me informed and sending pictures. I would definitely recommend Kelly to anyone looking for someone to keep their fur baby.”
“Terry spoils my dog in all the right ways. She LOVES staying with him, and I love the peace of mind I get knowing he has taken such good care of my fur baby every time I book with him. The photos he takes while I am out of town are so good, I would think I have booked a professional photographer! Highly recommend!”
“Kelli is an amazing sitter for my fur baby. She truly cares for and loves the dogs as if they were her own. She is very reliable and was able to accommodate my last minute change in plans. My dogs is always happy when I drop him off and pick him up. Anyone who is looking for a great sitter for your pet I would highly recommend Kelli. She is always my first choice for a sitter”
“John was great to deal with. Easy communication, drop-off and pick-up were uneventful outside of Ziva being a bit over-excoted, and the picture/video updates they sent were wonderful to see. We'll definitely use them again if our primary sitter isn't available.”
“Allison and Nicholas were wonderful with our puppy, Rio. They were always responsive and we felt that Rio was very well taken care of. Allison and Nicholas' pups were great playmates and Rio had so much fun! We are looking forward to using Allison and Nicholas again and know that Rio will enjoy her stay!”
“Bethany is fantastic! Stayed in communication while Mitzi was being doted for the week. Great sign, too, that Mitzi was happy the entire stay giving us peace of mind! We would definitely have Mitzi stay with Bethany again and highly recommend her pet sitting services.”
“Nancy and her family an excellent! They make my little dog feel like a part of their family and I know it because when we get there to drop him off he’s happy to see them and enjoys his time. It’s invaluable having the peace of mind knowing that he’s safe and well cared for and a happy dog in her home.”
“Katie was amazing! This was my first time boarding my rescue, so I was very nervous. My dog is also a naturally very anxious dog, and her family and dog made him feel right at home! She sent updates everyday and it truly made me feel a lot more secure being away from my pup. He immediately came home and curled up to go to sleep, so mission accomplished! I will definitely be messaging Katie again next time I head out of town.”
“Patchi had a great time staying at April's and made a new friend, Penelope! April and her husband are very professional and take great pride in what they do. I also loved the fact that they have passion for dogs and I felt safe leaving Patchi there for all four days. The atmosphere of the house was perfect for a pet to stay in and the yard was secured. During the short stay April sent me pics at least a few times a day, she really is so sweet. This was a longer driver away from home for me but was definitely worth it! Thank you from me and Patchi.”
“Bertha was wonderful! She was so easy to work with and booking was a breeze. It was our first time leaving our puppy but she knew exactly how to make us feel comfortable with leaving him. We received pictures and updates every day, it was so nice to see him be so happy even though he wasn’t with us!”
“Alexina was wonderful! She took the time to meet my pup the day before and introduce us to her pup and her home. I received pictures and updates throughout the stay. It was a fantastic experience for our whole family! We had peace of mind knowing our dog was in great hands and I can’t wait to start traveling more, knowing our dog will be loved and cared for in our absence.”
“Anita and EarlEx were kind, attentive and uplifting to us and Tony. We received updates everyday. This let us know how Tony was doing. Gave us peace of mind Tony was in good hands. Highly recommend Anita and EarlEx.”
“It was obvious that Ashley loves dogs and she loved my 2 bandits. She got to know them and their traits rather quickly. I can recommend Ashley to give the best of care and attention to anyone's pet.”
“I have found a few people in the past using this app and never really felt the way I was expecting. My expectation is that I find a friend I can trust and feel comfortable with to watch our loving animal. I found that with Marisa and James. To me that’s what the app is all about since you can easily just find a business that treats your animal and you like a “customer” OR find someone like a friend who can watch your dog with love and care. That’s what I found here.”
“Sruthi is amazing with animals! Very loving and playful which made my nervous Yorkies feel completely at home. I had a bad experience with another sitter which took awhile for my puppies to recover, but they loved their stay with Sruthi and were vibrant and healthy when I picked them up. Such a great experience, I will be booking with Sruthi every time I travel. I might just let her play with my Yorkies anyway, they loved her and her family so much.”
“Was greeted warmly by Jessica. Ronan immediately felt comfortable. They communicate often and well. Can recommend with 100% confidence that your pet will be well cared for.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Shady Shores
They took such wonderful care of our 2 dogs! We don’t leave our dogs often, but we would 100% rebook with them in the future. We received multiple pics a day and they updated us on how they were doing and what activities they were up to. They treated our pups like they were family.
Maria and her husband and Maria's mom were super sweet and loved on my babies while we were on vacation. She walked my doggies everyday (twice) and gave them love and attention in my absence. I got lots of updates and pictures and videos :) We will definitely be using them again as my doggies loved them and their dogs 🐕 ❤️ Thank you Maria and family for making me feel at ease and comfortable while I was gone🫶🏻

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Shady Shores on Rover is $28.89 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 4,023 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Shady Shores. 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 Shady Shores 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 Shady Shores 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 Shady Shores 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 Shady Shores.
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 Shady Shores 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.
