Know other sitter was willing to accept our fur baby until we found Remy so book her NOW!!!”

Denise was absolutely amazing with our girl, Muffin! We were away for 4 days and 3 nights, and she gave us so much peace of mind. She sent us daily videos and updates, communicated exceptionally well, and it was obvious that Muffin was well cared for and loved while we were gone. Drop-off and pick-up was super easy. Knowing our puppy was in such good hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation. We are so grateful for the wonderful care Denise provided and will definitely be booking with her again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter!
From the initial meet-and-greet, Tonya was wonderful. We had a great conversation, and as a first-time puppy mom, she gave me helpful tips and suggestions that immediately put me at ease. Nova completed a 6-hour trial with Tonya and her dog, Opie, and it was Nova's first time socializing away from me. Throughout the day, Tonya kept me updated on how Nova was adjusting, interacting, and behaving, which gave me so much peace of mind. I felt completely comfortable leaving Nova in Tonya's care and could tell she genuinely loves and understands dogs. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and trustworthy pet sitter.

There are 2,856 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in South Houston. About 91% of South Houston 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
