“I was extremely grateful to have found Celia to take care of our very skiddish and nervous 3 year old Jack Russell. He was a stray, found roaming the streets 2 years ago, and was obviously abused because he’s very apprehensive of strangers. I left him with Celia for 1 1/2 days, and even though he stayed to himself most of the time, Celia was very patient with him, not forcing him to socialize if he didn’t want to, and always making sure he ate, drank water and went outside to the bathroom. She put my mind to ease since Winston isn’t outgoing and I highly recommend her to others. Thanks so much, Celia!”

“I could not be happier with Elezha’s care of our Khloe. She kept me informed of her daily activities and sent pictures each day. Khloe was extremely well taken care of and was right at home when I picked her up. Elezha definitely cares and it shows! I will definitely be contacting her again if we ever need services again. It’s a great feeling to know Khloe was left with someone who cared for her like family. Five stars for sure!!”

“Michelle is THE BEST!!! I found Michelle last minute in a panic and she was an absolute lifesaver! This was my first time using Rover so I was very nervous. She was soooo incredibly patient with me as I kept going back and forth deciding if I would take them with me or just give myself a break and leave them with her. I am so glad I made the decision to leave my dogs with Michelle. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Michelle checked in multiple times a day with photos and updates. She kept my dogs an extra day when I needed it at the last minute, squeezing them in before another client. She also took the time to educate me on some behavioral things I could work on with one of my dogs. Michelle truly went above and beyond from the start, up until the moment she dropped off my babies. She clearly loves what she does and it shows in every way. My dogs are in great hands with her and she is now my permanent go-to sitter. I HIGHLY recommend Michelle without hesitation!”

Alyssa was absolutely wonderful! She watched our dogs for a week while we were away on a last-minute trip, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly professional, and I felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in such great hands while we were gone. This was our first time using Rover, and she made the experience so positive. We will definitely be booking with Alyssa again for our next trip! Highly recommend!

Addison did a great job watching my dog while I was overseas on a trip and difficult to reach. During his stay, my dog got quite sick (likely from eating something on a walk). Upon noticing this, she took the initiative to reach out to my emergency contact for guidance and took him to a 24 hour emergency vet. She followed the instructions and provided above and beyond care to help him recover from his illness. I appreciated Addison's above and beyond care and attention that she provided.

Camilo took great care of our doggies! He was prompt and responsive in his communication, sent us photos every day, and kept us updated throughout their stay. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Most importantly, the dogs came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. We would absolutely trust Camilo with them again and highly recommend him!

We cannot recommend Emi highly enough! She took such wonderful care of Simba and made being away from him so much easier. Her twice-daily updates and pictures were a highlight of our day—you could see how happy, comfortable, and at home he felt with her. She gave him so much love and company, made sure he got out regularly, and even welcomed him onto her furniture and bed! Knowing he was being cared for with that level of warmth meant the world to us. We were able to enjoy our trip without worrying because we knew he was in excellent hands. Emi truly went above and beyond, and we’re so grateful we found her. We absolutely look forward to booking with her again. If you’re looking for someone who will make your dog feel loved and welcome, Emi is that person. Highly, highly recommended!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Southside Place

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Southside Place is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 3,360 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Southside Place. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

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 Southside Place 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 Southside Place 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 Southside Place.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Southside Place. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Southside Place 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
