“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Wonderful Experience! Highly Recommend Danah! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Danah! From the very beginning, she made us feel completely comfortable and confident about leaving our two dogs in her care. During our meet-and-greet, she warmly welcomed us into her home and showed us exactly where our dogs would sleep, play, and relax. Her kindness, hospitality, and genuine love for dogs immediately put our minds at ease. She even helped us carry in their kennels, food, blankets, and all their doggie accessories! She also thoughtfully provides dog beds for those who don’t bring their own. Throughout their stay, Danah went above and beyond! She kept us updated daily with wonderful photos and videos of our dogs having fun, which we absolutely loved receiving. She even purchased special treats for them and kindly offered to give both dogs a bath! Her attention to detail, generosity, and dedication to making our dogs feel at home were truly exceptional. It was such a relief knowing our furry family members were being loved and well cared for while we were away. We are incredibly grateful to Danah and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and outstanding dog sitter! We will definitely be using her again!”
“Loved the photos and updates during Lucy's stay. I always worry about finding a sitter for my senior chihuahua and I had a great experience with Karimar. I plan to book again in the future.”
“Trisha and her husband Wayne are definitely 'dog people'! Trisha actually got Wayne out of bed to meet Sadie--because she is so cute of course--and they baby-talked her into feeling very comfortable immediately! She was snooping around the house instead of jumping all over me to keep me from leaving as she often does. They took great care of her and she actually got to cuddle in bed and hang out with other schnauzers for the first time in 3 years since she left her Mama's litter. She was happy to see me but didn't act mad or give me the cold shoulder for leaving her! All good signs. I recommend Trisha--but FYI, they go to bed early around there! Double-check your drop off time. :)”
“Judith did so amazing with my dog Meeko. She was super caring and sent updates while we were away. She even taught us a little trick to get our picky eater eating his food! I highly recommend her!”
“Reagan was amazing! My Stella is a bit weird and loves showing her teeth when playing or getting love which scares some people (she has never bitten anyone). However Reagan embraced it and sent many pictures and videos of my girl playing. Stella had so much fun and after the first day I was no longer worried about her and was able to just enjoy my vacation. Reagan would just send me pictures and videos without me asking and I absolutely loved that! 5⭐️'s”
“The best test of a sitter is seeing your dog when he is picked up. I could tell that would have prefered to stay with the sitter as she had children and dogs which he loves to be around. It took a while for him to reorient. Definitely would use Michelle again.”
“We needed pet boarding last minute for a Christmas trip and Danielle helped us out and did an amazing job taking care of our fur baby! Our pup had never been away from us for more than a few hours and Danielle handled her separation anxiety like a pro! She was so sweet to our pup and kept us updated the entire time. She is the best and we will use her again next time we need someone to care for our doggie.”
“If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and absolutely fantastic dog sitter, look no further! I recently left my 3 month old puppy with Jennifer S. and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear how much she truly cares for animals. She took the time to learn about specific needs, and routines, which put my mind at ease right away. Throughout the stay, she provided regular updates, including photos about what my puppy had been up to—walks, playtime, and all the cuddles! It’s obvious that my puppy was well cared for and I think she was not happy to leave her new friends. Jennifer S. treats her clients’ pets as if they were her own, which is so reassuring. If you need someone who’s trustworthy, experienced, and goes the extra mile, I highly recommend Jennifer S.”
“Karen was excellent. She took great care of Zoey and sent pictures often. It was great to have that assurance that she was well cared for and I highly recommend her and will use her again.”
“Mary Catherine and her family were so wonderful with Abby! Sweet family and we felt great that she was in such good hands while we were away. Loved the photo updates she gave us.”
“Khea was amazing with my Diva! She even took a special christmas photo of her that I'm definitely going to frame. It really looked like she had a blast. Thank you so much Khea for taking good care of my sweet little girl while we were away!”
“Lynda was fantastic!! She accepted my booking with nearly no notice, and did a great job with my older dog, Leo. Her place has a great little fenced in area for dogs, and you can tell that she really cares about their well being and doing little things to make them more comfortable and happy during their stay with her. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Amanda was awesome! I was in a tight spot, gave her short notice and she quickly responded. Riley quickly took a liking towards her. Would not hesitate to ask her to watch Riley again! Thank you so much.”
About: I have owned dogs for 12+ years now and just LOVE animals. Some of my own pets have had medical issues (seizures, blindness, heart issues) so I am very familiar with how to care with not only healthy pets but ones with medical needs as well. We have fostered puppies for a local rescue, so we are also familiar with how to handle the hyper activity of a new family member. I have a full time job, but we do come home during lunch to check on our babies and take them out to potty. We are usually home all evening so your fur baby will not be alone after we get out of work. If you are looking into my dog walking services, that can be completed right after work, for however long you need the services. I have a fully fenced yard and my dogs are never left outside unattended. My wife and I care deeply about our own dogs and would put the same care and love into your dogs as well. Our dogs are not crate trained and are allowed to roam the house during the day, but we could crate your dog if that is what you prefer.
“Karen was amazing! We were extremely anxious about leaving our little doggy during our vacation but Karen was an outstanding sitter for Lola. She kept us up to date with daily photos, and communication to help relieve our stress. This allowed us to have the best vacation without worry. I cannot tell you how thankful and appreciative I am of how well Lola was taken care of. We were even surprised at the airport when we arrived! We could not ask for any more loving and care for our doggy while we were gone. I would, and intend to have Karen sit for us in the future, we were spoiled by her! Thank you so much, my entire family appreciates you and your family taking such great care of our little Lola!”
“We have been giving our pup to Rebecca for almost a year and now she is our go to always. She is loving, careful and very responsive. Always sending updates. If you are looking to leave your furry family member with someone and be relaxed 100% of the time, Rebecca is absolutely your person”
About: I’ve been raised taking care of all types of animals and have grown up around pit bulls to chihuahuas and love to take care of them all wether u have to play with them, feed, bathe etc. Pet care fits into my schedule because depending on the day I have free hours where I would be more than happy to watch over a pet or walk them. I am planning on becoming a veterinarian and have always loved animals. Since I am away at college I don’t have one and would love to help out on the side. In my home, pets get a cozy, loving space with lots of cuddles. In your home, I respect your space and keep everything familiar for your pet—same feeding schedule, same walk route, same toys. I also send plenty of updates and pictures!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Taft is $31 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $33 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 130 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Taft. 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.
93% of sitters in Taft 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 Taft 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 Taft.
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 Taft. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 Taft 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.
