“Nicole and family were great. She made pickup and drop off quick and easy. When my flight was cancelled and I had to extend 1 more day, Nicole was very flexible. I'm glad I had one less thing to worry about. Highly recommend.”
“Caitlin and Christopher were so great to our sweet boy Hank. Caitlin made sure to keep us updated on our boy. I will definitely be using them again! I recommend them!”
“Christian was so amazing with our four month old puppy! He has a great space for them and a very big yard in the country. More than the accommodations I can tell that he loves animals. He and his child even hooked our puppy to their belt loop while they were walking around the house, which made an amazing difference in leash training. I highly recommend him and his family and I am confident we found our new Dog Sitter.!”
“Sidney and his wife did a great job with our Brownie girl. They had a great set up that allowed plenty of time inside and outside safely - as she loves to run and is a big dog. Would definitely recommend.”
About: I’ve been head-over-heels in love with animals for as long as I can remember, turning a lifelong passion into years of hands-on pet-sitting adventures! Whether it’s decoding a kitten’s 3:00 AM zoomies, giving a wise senior dog the gentle TLC they deserve, or keeping a bunny happy with fresh greens, I truly thrive around creatures big, small, fluffy, and feathered. Over the years, I’ve mastered the fine art of belly rubs, laser-pointer marathons, and treat distribution, treating every single fur-baby like royalty. For me, pet sitting isn’t just a job—it’s my favorite way to spend the day, making sure your pets stay happy, loved, and thoroughly spoiled while you’re away! I will be using this as my full time job. I am home all day and able to care for the needs of your pet! Whether that is daily walks, check ins, medication administration, play time, I can do it all! In my home pets have access to filtered water, fresh bowls and food, and sanitary living environments. I keep a clean household and do not mind cleaning up daily. I have a large backyard fenced in where we can play and get some fresh air! I also have a trail near my house for walks and a park nearby. In my clients home, I understand I am coming into your home and most importantly your pets home. I treat their space with respect and kindness. I want them to be comfortable in their own home and will provide the best care as possible for your pets.

“Sarah was wonderful with our German Shorthaired Pointer pup. He is a ball of energy and she went out her way to take him on walks and car rides to ware him out. 10 out 10 would recommend. If she allows our boy back in her house we book her again.”
“First time ever leaving my dog with another dog, but Cheri assured me he will be fine with her dog & sure enough I felt like my dog didn't want to go home when we picked him up! He loved the company! Loved receiving pictures & videos daily as well! I definitely reccomend & will use Cheri again!”
“Excellent stay for Bella! Sonyta &Alan made me and my pet welcomed and comfortable at drop off so I had peace of mind to enjoy my overnight stay away from her.

“Nataly was great with communication and professional and personable. This was our first time using a sitter and she made the process great and provided updates with pictures. We will definitely be returning!”
“God Bless this wonderful at the last minute host who was able to watch our Gouda. He showed us videos of Gouda at play. While getting exercise in his enormous backyard, it looks like a dog’s Dream.) I would highly recommend Don.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 929 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Southmayd. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
95% of sitters in Southmayd can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Southmayd 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 Southmayd.
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 Southmayd 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.
