“Very professional and nice. The only issue would be if you don't want your dog to love her more than you. Nami has been moping and missing her since she got home. :D Already re-booking our next stay with her!”
“We loved Kaitlyn and Scott. Gunner was well taken care of and loved while we were gone. It made our time away stress free?. We enjoyed receiving pictures and updates. I highly recommend Kaitlyn if you need someone to watch your fur baby?”
“We used Victoria for the first time and were beyond satisfied with her services. She sent pictures daily and even updated us when our pup had a minor injury that she tended to herself. We were able to enjoy our time out of town knowing our pup was being well taken care of.”
“Our Bonnie loves spending time with Delaney. Love how much interaction Bonnie gets and Delaney is always happy to send videos and pictures of your pup. Wish I could give more than 5 stars”
“Sierra and Blayden were amazing with my boy Bentley. They provided such a warm and loving environment for him and were able to give me peace of mind while i was away! I will be using them again!”
“She was wonderful with my pups! I loved seeing pictures throughout my trip away and getting updates on her activity, diet, and overall energy. I will be booking again in the future”
“We have had many pet sitters over the years and Amanda is by far the best! She gave wonderful, in-depth, daily updates of how our dog was doing using videos, pictures, and text. She went above and beyond taking care of his basic needs to use this opportunity to train him in areas he needed. We even learned some fun new things about him like his interest in watching dog TV. Haha Overall, I highly recommend her services!”
“Jennifer was amazing with my dog! As was her whole family! Harley can be very shy and alittle feisty sometimes towards people she doesn’t know but the moment I brought her over she was so comfortable with Jennifer and that’s a huge positive when your dog is automatically comfortable with someone also imo! Jennifer updated us daily with texts or pics and the whole experience was just a pleasure overall!! I would definitely recommend this home for any and all pet sitting needs and if I ever need someone to watch Harley again, Jennifer will be the first person I book with! Thank you guys again!!! I appreciate you so much!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kieryn! She was so incredibly sweet and attentive to my dog-child and took such great care of her. I rarely leave my dog with anyone but I had no qualms with Kieryn. She was responsible, communicative, and very understanding of my dog’s special little quirks. I will definitely use her over and over again as the occasions arise.”
“What a lovely family! Our baby girl, Sassy Boo, has only been kenneled twice at a vet clinic in the past ten years. We hated the idea of her being caged. We decided to give Rover.com a try for an over night stay in a home. We were lucky to find Jordyn and Gerron. We were comforted by several messages and pictures. Sassy Boo had a big grin and was clearly happy and well cared for. We'll definitely be booking again. This is Sassy Boo's new home away from home. Thank you for your great service. Book with confidence!”
“I unfortunately had to board my dog for a week during the holidays. Amelia was very accommodating. She didn’t accept any more dogs once I booked because my dog can get overwhelmed. She introduced her slowly to her own dogs and they did well together! It was great to get daily pictures and to see how much she was enjoying playing with the other dogs. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of lots of different animals my whole life. I grew up on a farm with lots of animals and have used rover with my parents for the last couple years. I am now doing so on my own. I’m currently working part time and taking online classes while my boyfriend is looking for a job. We have a lot of time at home to spend caring and loving on our pets. I have a fenced yard as well as plenty of space for big and energetic dogs. I have personal experience in providing oral medication for my own dog everyday. We also have space to separate dogs if needed.
About: I love pets and spending time with them. I don't have one currently because I’m in college and I can't afford them. My brother has a dog that I take care of every winter when he travels. I have a lot of time to spend on your pets. I've had a dogs and a cat my whole life. I'm college student that’s currently on summer break with nothing to do, so l have plenty of time to care for your pets as if they were my own. I live in an apartment community but there is a fenced yard for pets and I live fairly close to a park and a walking trail is just down the street from where I live.
About: I am reliable and routine based. I will ensure the babies are fed,walked,bathed and receive the most love while in my care. Communication is very important to me and memories so I ensure that you will get FaceTime calls with the babies along with photos and videos and even some arts and crafts! I currently work from home so they furr babies will not be left alone. I have an SUV so car rides will be included if owner approved. I live in a two story loft apartment. It is Square Apartments ; so there is a beautiful walking trail on the complex and I also have a play area for the dogs inside of my home. Nap time is crucial so after play time I do play relaxing instrumentals to lounge and decompress. Rubs are a given and lots of hugs.
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my hands-on experience with animals of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I’m comfortable caring for energetic puppies who need consistent training, as well as senior pets who require gentle handling, medication, and extra patience. I pride myself on reading each animal’s body language, building trust quickly, and tailoring my care to their unique needs—whether that’s reinforcing good habits, providing enrichment, or offering calm companionship. Pet care fits naturally into my college routine—I plan my class schedule and study time around feeding, walks, and play so pets always get reliable, focused attention. In my home, pets get a safe, comfortable space with plenty of play, walks, and snuggles. In my clients’ homes, I follow their routines closely—feeding, exercising, and giving attention just like they would—so pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar environment.
“This was the first time leaving our dog with Shawna, and she was every bit as caring and responsible as she appeared to be at our initial meet-and-greet. We received photo and video updates frequently, and Trixie appeared to be so thoroughly entertained that I wondered if she would even want to come home with us! I'm so happy we found Shawna.”

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.
92% of Shallowater 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 Shallowater 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 Shallowater 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 Shallowater.
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 Shallowater 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.
