“Our toothless dog Coco loved Michelle! Michelle communicated with both my wife and I, which made her so happy. She made so many accommodations and was extremely patient with us since our dog is kind of high-need and just came out of a surgery. I don’t feel like Michelle is charging enough for what she did for us watching our Coco.”

“Bassam was an absolute lifesaver with a last second request, and the best part is that our girl was tuckered out and happy when we picked her up. She was wagging her tail and clearly felt super comfortable with Bassam even though she can be shy at first. We got multiple pupdates throughout with photos of her running around with the other dogs in a lovely outdoor fenced in yard. The quick communication, seamless drop off and pick up and the excellent care for our June meant the world. It gave us so much peace of mind and we could not recommend Bassam more! 10/10. Our #1 choice will always be to have our girl stay with Bassam in the future pending availability - thank you so much!!”

She kept me updated with tons of photos, and it was clear Zoe was happy and comfortable the whole time. By the time I picked her up, Zoe had already bonded with her, which says everything. I’d trust Whitney with my best friend any day, we can’t wait to see her again!”

“Maura and Shawn were fantastic! We left our golden retriever, Cooper, with them over Thanksgiving and they took really great care of our pup. He's nearly four years old and can still be a handful, but they were very patient and caring and gave him plenty of playtime and walks. They also send numerous photo updates, which we really appreciated. Very responsive to our inquiries and logistical issues (drop off and pick up times), and the communication was easy and friendly. I would absolutely leave Cooper with Maura and Shawn next time we leave town!”

When I picked her up the next day, she seemed happy and calm (besides being excited to see me), and even “sniffed” her new friend goodbye before we left. Would definitely book with Michelle again!”

Tasha is awesome! Our dogs loved staying at her place, she took such great care of them. Our younger dog played with hers and our older one was cozy and chill on the couch. She made sure to give him his meds, walked them both, and gave plenty of love. Thank you for the amazing care of our loved ones 💜

Amanda and Jared took great care of our labradoodles, Marv and Millie, during their five-night stay! We had a meet and greet beforehand, and everyone seemed to get along well, which made us feel comfortable leaving them. Marv and Millie had so much fun playing with the other dogs, and we loved getting pictures and videos every day. They looked so happy and busy that they seemed to forget all about us! Amanda and Jared were ready to greet us out front at both drop-off and pickup, which made everything easy. We’d definitely consider them again for overnight stays or daycare. Thank you both for taking such good care of our pups!

Michelle was absolutely wonderful with our senior dog, Cooper. He has some quirks due to his old age but Michelle knew exactly what to do and we could tell how experienced she is with dogs, as well as how much she loves and cares for them. She sent us regular updates, including several photos and we could just tell how comfortable and happy Cooper was with her. Definitely plan to book again!

Marissa took fantastic care of my dachshund Romeo. She sent me several pictures to keep me posted on how well he was bonding with her family. She was also flexible and accommodating with my drop off and pick up, which was so helpful. I’ll definitely be booking with her from now on, as ai travel frequently.

Doug was awesome! I have moved her from Austin alittle over a year ago and have not left my dog with anyone since I have moved here. It was so nice to have someone who I trust take care of my guy while I was out of town for a few days. He sent videos and Photos and always asked questions if he wasn’t sure if he couldn’t have treats. He is really a great caregiver and I plan on using him again! Really appreciate him!

Denise was great with our pup. My husband did the drop off and gave no instructions and she knew exactly what to do. She was great with daily photos and feedback. I wasn’t sure how our dog would do with multiple dogs, but since she keeps smaller dogs, it seems like that was a great match.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Sunset Valley 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 Sunset Valley.

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 Sunset Valley 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.
