“Once again, a 5-star stay! Vinnie and Daisy were excited when I pulled into Noel's driveway! They jumped out of the care when they saw him and didn't look back when they followed him into the house! They both had a great time, Vinnie made a tons of new friends, but most importantly they were exhausted when they got home!”
“Sherman is a regular with Hannah and her Beagle Beauties. He now knows Wednesday is play day to which he responds with much excitement! Thank you Hannah. My Wednesdays are very productive knowing he is well cared for with lots of love and attention.”
“Joanna and Brian were great! They were communicative and sent several pictures and updates throughout the evening. We appreciate how kind and loving they were to our boy.”
“Lily and Turbo have been the best!! I am a sitter as well, but I have recently had the tables turn, as I have had to return to "pre-pandemic" on site office hours! Lily has helped us make this transition so much better for me and my sweet boy Hank. She has sent plenty of pictures throughout our stays, which is a huge comfort! Hank's excitement in the mornings, and his exhaustion in the evenings is an absolute testament to how well his days are going! Big big thanks to Ms. Lily and Turbo!! Tracey & Hank : )”
About: Certified trainer & full-time pet lover! 🐾 My husband and I treat every guest like our own "fur-child." Since I’m home all day, your pet gets tons of attention, couch snuggles, and a cozy spot in our pack. We share our home with two friendly dogs and a cat, and we love making new friends! Whether they’re playing with our mountain of toys or napping by my side, your pet will be safe, happy, and totally spoiled. I’m home all day, so they’re never lonely! • Total Flexibility: I can usually jump in for last-minute bookings. • Eyes-On Care: My husband is also home to help, so there’s always a human around. • Customizable: I am happy to adjust to your pet’s specific feeding and exercise routine. • Overnight: Your pet will have a cozy, secure spot to rest through the night. Small groups = zero stress. • The 2-Pet Rule: I only take two guest pets at a time. This keeps things calm and ensures everyone gets 1-on-1 time. • Pro Handling: As a certified trainer, I’m an expert at reading body language and keeping the peace. • Structured Environment: I use gates and crates during mealtimes and can provide separate rooms for cats and dogs if needed. • Health Conscious: I am very attentive to medications, strict allergy requirements, and specific "pet peeves."
About: I’ve spent a lot of time working with dogs of all personalities, ages, and energy levels. I’m big on patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, and I naturally help dogs settle into a calm, comfortable routine while they’re here. I pay close attention to their body language and cues, which helps me understand what they need to feel safe and relaxed. Whether your dog is playful, shy, energetic, senior, or still learning a few manners, I provide a structured but loving environment that helps them feel right at home. Pet care is a natural and consistent part of my daily and weekly routine, especially since I work from home. Being home allows me to maintain a structured schedule that includes regular feeding times, fresh water, daily walks, and intentional play sessions to keep your pet physically active and mentally stimulated. I’m able to provide consistent supervision, quick potty breaks, and ongoing attention throughout the day, rather than leaving them alone for long periods. Throughout the week, I also stay on top of grooming, maintaining a clean and safe environment, and scheduling any necessary one-on-one time. Caring for your pet is a responsibility I genuinely value, and working from home allows me to give them the time, structure, and attention they deserve. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets are treated like family. Since I work from home, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. A typical day includes walks, feeding on your preferred schedule, outdoor time, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and regular updates so owners always feel connected and comfortable while away. My home is clean, spacious, and pet-friendly with plenty of room to relax and play. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, and routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. I also provide complimentary high-quality treats along with fresh protein toppers such as salmon, chicken, turkey, and lean cuts of beef that can be mixed with their kibble for an extra healthy and enjoyable mealtime experience. Whether your pet is active and playful or calm and laid back, they’ll receive personalized care, patience, affection, and lots of love during their stay.
About: I’ve been a proud pet parent to two wonderful dogs in the past—one small and one medium/large—so I’m experienced with different breeds and personalities. I understand that a fur baby isn’t just a pet, but truly part of the family. Since moving to Houston, I don’t currently have any pets of my own, which means your furry friend will have my full attention and care throughout the day. I can’t wait to meet and care for your fur baby like my own! Since I work from home, your pup will have constant company and plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I will be around all day to give them the care and attention they need. In my home, pets have plenty of room to play and relax. I live in a house with a spacious, fenced backyard that’s perfect for safe outdoor time. Since I don’t currently have any dogs of my own, your pup will get my full attention and care while they’re here. I make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home from the moment they arrive.
“Udi loves going to Kimberly’s place and she’s always sad to leave! She sends me regular updates about Udi throughout the day and she understands her goofy pittie personality as well. Udi also loves playing with Kimberly’s pup Omega. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“My dog had such a great time with Beatrice and her dogs! My dog was very anxious and shy upon arrival, but she made sure Buttercup felt welcomed in her home! She got to play and cuddle with the other pups and I look forward to working with her again in the future! ☺️”
“Stephanie and her family were very nice and trusting! They were so accommodating to my last minute booking, and I am so thankful they were able to watch over my dog. Stephanie was responsive and sent lots of pictures. I would book again!”
“Lina was great!!!!! Our first time with her and she made me feel really comfortable leaving my baby. She sent plenty of pics and videos and my Koa had a wonderful day!!!! Will be back!!!!🐶🐶”
“I needed a last minute emergency dog sitter and Gabrielle was great! Responded immediately to my booking request, arranged a drop off and pick up time in about 15 minutes. My dog normally doesn't like bigger dogs but Gabrielle's dog knows when other dogs aren't being friendly and doesn't bother them. Perfect daycare provider. I will definitely go back if I need another sitter”
“Nugget loved it! Jerry and Sunny sent a lot of photos and videos throughout the day so I know how he was doing. He was exhausted after back home which was great. Tired dog happy dog. He met a lot of fur friends and had lots of attention, playtime. Strongly recommend!”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Stafford commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 2,244 sitters in Stafford, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
