“Lily was so good with Nala and did an amazing job taking care of her. She was wonderful to work with and was very flexible when we had to adjust our pickup time and date. I would highly recommend her for anyone needing a sitter in the future!”
“This was the first time Deborah watched Ziggy and he absolutely loved her! She was amazing and kept us updated with pictures and videos all throughout his stay. I would definitely recommend and use her again. Thank you!”
“Diana was respectful, kind, understanding, and always prompt to respond. This was my first time boarding my kitty, and naturally, I was hesitant. However, Diana reassured me and sent daily updates, which put my mind at ease. She even clipped my cat’s nails, ensured she was well-fed, and took time to play with her. Diana was also very flexible with the dates and adjusted to my needs. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter.”
“Janna is the BEST! My fur baby was happy to come home but she was not anxious at all when we picked her up. She is a 10 year old escape artist and Janna kept her well exercised and happy. She had her for a week with no problems. We will be using her for all of our vacations from now on.”
“I had a great experience and would highly recommend Shang! He took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay by sending pictures and videos, which I really appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was happy and well cared for. My dog had a great time, and I could tell he was treated with lots of attention and care. I would definitely use their services again!”
“Sudha and her family took great care of my 5 month old puppy Luna and was a joy to work with. As a young puppy, Luna is still learning the ropes and they were very patient with her. I could tell that she enjoyed the love ❤️ and attention given to her during her stay, she returned home very happy. Thanks again Sudha, Luna will be back to visit soon!”
“My dogs love to stay with Weiyue and her family. My big dog, Jax, gets so excited when they walk in the door. Weiyue has been very flexible to work with. We really are happy our dogs have a great place to stay when we’re gone.”
About: I'm a lifelong dog / cat lover who treats every pup and kitten that stays with me like family. I don't have a professional background in dog or cat care — what I do have is patience, genuine affection for dogs and cats, and a home set up to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. My home has a fully fenced yard, so your dog gets plenty of safe off-leash time to run, sniff, and play throughout the day — no worrying about them slipping out during a walk or being cooped up all visit. I like to keep a relaxed routine: regular potty breaks, playtime, cozy rest spots, and lots of one-on-one attention so your dog never feels like just another guest. I understand handing your dog over for boarding can be stressful — I'd want the same care for my own dog. I'll send you photo/video updates throughout their stay so you can relax and enjoy your trip knowing they're in good hands. Morning — Before Work (6:30–7:45 AM) Let dogs out for potty break / yard time Refresh water bowls (dogs & cats) Serve breakfast per each pet's normal schedule Scoop litter boxes Quick health check (energy, appetite, any issues) Leave interactive toys / puzzle feeders out for daytime enrichment Lunch Break (12:00–1:30 PM) — You're home Potty break / yard time for dogs Playtime or walk Litter box scoop Fresh water check Send midday photo/video update to owners Quick cuddle/attention time for cats Evening — After Work (4:30–5:30 PM) Potty break / yard time for dogs Active play session or walk Litter box scoop Enrichment/playtime for cats Dinner (6:00 PM) Feed dogs and cats per normal schedule Fresh water refresh Evening Wind-Down (7:00–9:00 PM) Relaxed playtime or cuddle time Send evening update photo/video to owners Before Bed (9:30–10:00 PM) Last potty break for dogs Water refresh Litter box check Settle pets into sleeping area for the night 🏡 Secure, fenced yard — safe off-leash play with no risk of pets slipping out 📹 Pet camera on-site — I keep an eye on pets even when I'm not in the room, so nothing goes unnoticed 📱 Photo & video updates — sent throughout the stay so you always know how your pet is doing 🕐 Consistent daily routine — feeding, potty breaks, and playtime on a reliable schedule, with clear info upfront about my work hours 🚨 Attentive care — medications, allergies, and special needs are noted and followed closely, with your vet's info kept on hand 🐾 Genuine love for animals — every pet gets real one-on-one attention, not just a place to stay
“Hannah was very attentive and communicative while we were out of town. She consistently sent photos, which eased our minds while we were away, and it was clear that Daisy enjoyed her stay when we picked her up.”
“Skye was great! She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures and videos so I wasnt worried about my girl at all. I had to extend a night due to travel and it was no problem at all as well. She was very attentive and caring about my dog. She was brushed, washed and her nails were even trimmed. She had a great stay with Skye and Hercules.”
“Daniel and Kristy were amazing. They kept your girls for 5 weeks and they stayed in contact, kept us updated in everything happening, and were flexible when we needed to extend our stay. Highly recommend them to anyone in the Katy/Richmond area looking for reliable, experienced pet sitters.”
“I’m so grateful to have found Patricia. She has quickly became my go-to sitter whenever I’m out of town, and my pup absolutely adores her. She’s reliable, caring, and always goes above and beyond to make sure my dog feels loved and comfortable.”
“Mya was absolutely incredible. I can tell her love for pups. I was taking my baby to a kennel but he would always be so scared so I knew I needed to change to somewhere more like him. I’m so glad I chose Mya. She sent me so many pictures and I could tell in the pictures he definitely had a great time. Thank you so so much. Will be bringing Crown back.”
“Our dog Ife loves staying at Ara's home. Ara is simply amazing and she always emails or texts us photos of Ife while we are away to let us know how our girl is doing. Don't look anywhere else. Ara is the best!”
“Cynthia was great. Fast communication, regular updates, attentive to the needs of my dog who really enjoyed her stay. Will definitely be utilizing for future stays and recommend to anyone considering!”
“Paul was great . Booked within minutes at dropped off within an hour. Tipped him upfront to show the appreciation. He sent videos and pictures everyday with updates. Highly recommended will be new sitter 10/10”
“Nikki was great with my dog, Asher! She was really attentive to his medical needs and made sure he was well taken care of the whole time. Her communication was also really good. She kept me updated and was easy to reach, which I really appreciated. She even sent me videos of some of his stay with her! (Normally I just get pics but she went ABOVE AND BEYOND) Overall it was such a smooth experience and I felt comfortable knowing Asher was in good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

My husband and I are so glad we chose Andrea! We were a little anxious about leaving our little half-Chihs, Greyson and Louie, with a new sitter since our old sitter stopped sitting, but we couldn’t be happier with the care she gave them. We loved getting all the updates, pictures, and videos and seeing them socialize with the other dogs and have fun! Andrea sent so many updates, and we really appreciated them. It was such a relief to be able to see how they were doing while we were away on our trip. It’s really important to us that our sitter genuinely enjoys being around our dogs because we want to know they’re not just being watched, but are also being loved and having a good time while we’re away. We could tell Andrea really loved our boys, and that means so much to us. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🥰❤️ Thank you, Andrea! 10/10 :))
Sandi and Phil are wonderful! We are new to Rover, so I scheduled a one-night sleepover as a trial run. I have a dog who is anxious and fearful and a puppy who is attention seeking and sometimes naughty. Sandi and Phil's home is dog-friendly with a fully fenced backyard perfect for exploring and a large front window for keeping an eye on the neighborhood. They are calm, experienced former dog owners who enjoy having canine guests. When I picked the dogs up the next day, the dogs were initially excited but quickly settled back into what they had been doing before my arrival. My anxious dog was not anxious about leaving. While the humans visited, I noticed the dogs casually made their rounds between Sandi, Phil and myself for pets. The dogs enjoyed their stay - even my anxious one. Great first experience.
Alison was so great with Bailey! She was super patient and caring, and Bailey seemed really happy and comfortable at her home. I could tell he had a great time there. I really appreciated how well Alison took care of him and would definitely book with her again! 😊
Thank you so much, Swathy, for taking such wonderful care of Aspen! Looking at the daily pictures you sent, she looked so happy and content. I really appreciated you taking her out for daily walks, too. Having a dog of your own clearly shows—you naturally know exactly what a pup needs to feel comfortable. I’m so grateful and will definitely be reaching out next time! I will highly recommend Swathy . 5 stars for sure
Thank you Diana, best dog sitting experience we have had. Diana kept us updated on everything worth knowing, incl pictures. Our dog is not easy and she managed to succesfully introduce her to one of her own dogs, and they played and we saw out dog get more and more comfortable as the week progressed , Thank you.
What an amazing care taker Joanna and Brian are. We have had some bad experiences via rover but this one is a keepsake. We will be going back only to them in the future. Remo had a wonderful break at their place and they kept sending so many pics of him throughout our vacations. Our entire family enjoyed those pics and we were happy that remo was in a safe place. I would give them 100 stars of at that was an option. Thank you so much. Our baby had so much love to give and I truly hope you enjoyed him as much as he did.
I can't say enough good things about my experience with Valerie and her family. From the very beginning, she kept me informed every step of the way, which I really appreciated. She regularly sent photos and videos of Coco. Communication was excellent, and it was clear she genuinely cared about Coco. Seeing the updates along the way gave me so much peace of mind. Thank you for taking such great care of Coco! 🐾🌈
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Wonderful Experience! Ms. Mary was amazing with my dogs! She’s caring, reliable, and treated them like her own.

95% of sitters in Sugar Land 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 Sugar Land home-away-from-home, 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 Sugar Land.
<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 Sugar Land 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.

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.

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.
