“Ashley accepted my last-minute booking, and I appreciate her availability during a busy time of the year. I could relax and enjoy my son's wedding this weekend. The dogs were happy when we picked them up, and I received a few pictures of their stay. Thanks again for the excellent service and for giving me peace of mind that they will be okay. Sincerely, Annette”
“Heather was amazing. She took excellent care of my dogs and made me at ease leaving them with her. She was quick to respond to my messages and sent me pictures. I would definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone needing to board their dogs.”
“Billy is awesome. Having never hired a pet sitter before, he made us feel comfortable and confident that our puppy was in good hands. He’s very knowledgeable about animals and takes good care of them. We needed to extend by a couple of days, and he was okay with it, which was great for us. I would, and will, leave my pets with him again when needed.”
“Absolutely amazing dog sitter! This is our multiple times having her care for our doggies, and once again, she was wonderful. She’s reliable, caring, communicative, and treats our dogs like her own. We always feel completely comfortable leaving them in her care. Highly recommend her!”
“We loved her! She took such great care of Paco and made us feel completely at ease. She gave us many updates and answered very quick. She was very kind, trustworthy, and clearly loves animals. We’re so grateful and will definitely book with her again 🤍”
“Arshawna is a great sitter and Millie took to her easily. Millie is particular when it comes to people but Arshawna won her over right away. Millie has seperation anxiety and there was no sign of it when staying with Arshawna. She sent pics regularly and even a couple of videos of Millie. Millie even chose to sleep at the foot of Arshawna's bed. I am impressed how nuturing she is and how quickly she was able to make Millie feel at ease. Arshawna is the best.”
“She was an excellent sitter for our boy. Nikole and her husband took the time to even walk him in their neighborhood. I would recommend anyone looking for a sitter to send their fur baby to Nikole. Thanks again!”
“Roshonda was absolutely amazing with my baby Nova! 🥹💖 From start to finish, she treated Nova like part of her family. She sent constant updates with photos and videos every day from long walks and morning runs to cuddles, naps and belly rubs galore!😆 Seeing Nova so happy, playful and relaxed while I was away gave me complete peace of mind. Nova was even in heat during her stay (which can make her extra sensitive and moody) and Roshonda handled it with so much patience, love, and care! Cleaning her, changing her diapers, keeping her comfortable and making sure she felt safe. She also made sure Nova got plenty of exercise and attention, whether it was walks, time outside, or playtime with her daughter and her friends. Nova clearly loved being part of their little crew 😂. I could tell how much Roshonda genuinely cared, she communicated so well, made sure I always knew how Nova was doing and went above and beyond in every way. Nova is happy, calm and clearly loved. I can’t thank her enough! I’d recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and amazing with dogs. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 💕🐶✨”
“Excellent experience. Thus far the best experience using Rover. I felt comfortable leaving my doggy with her immediately. I received daily updates, and communication.”
“Kelly watched my dog Red for the weekend. They became best friends fast. He didn't want to come home with me he loved her and her family so much. She kept me updated with photos and texts throughout the weekend. Amazing. We will be using her again.”
“Tristan took such good care of my Madi! I was constantly updated on her and she seemed to fit right in with her other dogs as well. I’m sure my Madi can’t wait to stay with her again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Shortall 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 Shortall.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Shortall 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.
