“First time leaving our dog since her adoption and Jennifer and Brian along with their kids took excellent care of our dog. Highly recommend. Also super flexible with pickupz”
“Was greeted warmly by Jessica. Ronan immediately felt comfortable. They communicate often and well. Can recommend with 100% confidence that your pet will be well cared for.”
“My dog LOVES going over to Marisa & James’ house and getting tons of time playing with their dogs. She always comes back home worn out and well cared for :)”
“Andrew and Joy were wonderful with Buttercup. I could tell immediately from the pictures and videos they sent that she was happy, even though she missed me. Buttercup is extremely attached to me and struggles with separation anxiety, but their engagement, attention, and playtime kept her from experiencing the sadness I’ve seen with other sitters. I’m always anxious when I have to travel somewhere I can’t take Buttercup because I worry she’ll feel abandoned. Andrew and Joy truly put my mind at ease. It was so comforting to see her bonding with their dog Oliver, going on walks together, playing, and even taking naps side by side. I still don’t enjoy leaving Buttercup behind when I travel, but Andrew and Joy's special care for Buttercup gave me real peace of mind knowing she was genuinely loved, cared for, and happy while I was away.”
“Dana & Adam treated our puppy Bentley like he was their own! They sent photos throughout the stay whenever I asked and he seemed to have a great time with them! I would definitely book again with them.”
“Nana and Scott were a dream! It was our first time using Rover and having someone outside of family watch our pup and we could not be any happier with how it went. Nana sent us lots of pictures and updates and made sure that we knew Finn was having a blast and doing well. Would 100% recommend them!”
“Erin always takes the best care of our puppy! You can tell Sona has a blast when she stays with Erin. Erin and her family very much care for the Rover doggies like they are their own.”
“Kristen and Mike truly cared for our Oliver. Their genuine love for dogs was evident in the daily pictures and updates they sent, allowing us to see how happy and comfortable Oliver felt at home. We are deeply grateful to Kristen and Mike for their kindness and dedication.”
“Angela was great about sending pictures of our dog through out her 1 week stay over Christmas. Her home is very clean and cozy and a great yard for small dogs. I appreciated that she only takes one family at a time and did a meet and great prior to our stay to make sure the dogs got along. No issues.”
“Sherry went above and beyond my expectations. In addition to exercising, giving meds, and loving on him, she sent me pictures everyday showing him completely relaxed in her home. He was treated like a little king! 10/10 recommend”
“William was great. Updated us on our boys, when we went to pick them up they did not want to leave. Makes us believe he treated them great and they enjoyed their visit.”
“Ava was happy and healthy when I picked her up. Andrea sent me pictures everyday and that really eased my swordy. I’ll for sure reserve a spot with them again. 😊”
“Brissa and her family always make cookie feel like she is at home, we love the amount of care and pictures that she sends us. She was patient with pickup time as our flight got delayed. She always made sure we knew that she was looking out for cookie and never made us feel like a burden regardless of the delayed pick-up. I would definitely recommend Brissa to anyone and everyone, always. We're so happy to have found Cookie's second family in Brissa and her family.”
“Brittani is an angel! I'm recovering from an ankle injury and had to board Niko while my daughter was out of town. I can tell that my sweet boy was loved on! It was so hard to be away from him but Brittani and her family made Niko right at home, and made me completely comfortable during his stay. Niko kept his schedule, and I suspect he got just as many belly rubs as he does at home. Highly recommended!”
“Super impressed by Manda. You can tell she’s attentive to the dogs and our requests. Big backyard and doggie door for our pups to roam around. Lots of photos while we were gone without having to ask. We will be using her again!”
“Paulina was SO great with Tera, you could just tell how happy my dog was with her in every photo sent over. It was such a relief to know someone who takes so much care and gives so much attention was watching her, I always felt at ease and loved the updates given. I know Tera would absolutely LOVE to stay again. Thank you Paulina!”
“Christopher took great care of our dog, Fable, and kept us updated with messages and videos. Fable came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We would gladly book with Christopher again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter.”

Maria took amazing care of our Bentley! She sent so many pics every day of him living his best life. When our flight was delayed on the way home, she was super flexible and worked with us. Communication was excellent. She followed all our instructions, as Bentley is an old guy and had some special needs. Highly recommend Maria and will be using her again!
Dakota had such a great time with Nana, Scott, and their dogs Leo and Nala! We loved getting all the photo updates throughout her stay, and it gave us complete peace of mind. We felt 100% comfortable leaving her in their care and will definitely be booking with them again!
Yanel was fantastic!! She took our large dog on pretty short notice for 2 weeks. Communication and flexibility were excellent and appreciated and Yanel could not have been easier to work with. We never had any worries about how well our dog was being cared for, we will certainly use her in the future and highly recommend her!
I couldn’t be happier with the care Montae provided for my two large, high‑energy dogs. He went above and beyond — daily walks, dog‑park time, played music and plenty of attention to help them feel secure and relaxed. After their two‑day stay, they came home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I trust Montae fully, and it’s such a relief knowing my dogs are in safe, responsible, and loving hands for their stay with him. I’m highly recommending Montae. I highly recommend Montae. Both of my dogs are German Shepherd mixes, and it has always been extremely difficult for me to find someone who can truly care for them and love them in my absence. I was so nervous at first, but Montae turned out to be an absolute blessing.
Erin and her family are absolutely amazing!!! They took such good care of Mocha, like he was their own pup. Mocha especially had a blast playing fetch, going on long walks, playing with their son and even had a pool party!!😍 Erin is very thoughtful, caring and made Mocha feel very comfortable and pampered. She sent tons of pictures and videos of Mocha and it was great to see him enjoying his time with all of them! Mocha can’t wait to be back for another fun filled vacation with Erin and her family! Highly recommend them!!❤️
Kimberly was absolutely great with Chanel! I can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches and treats them like they’re her own, and made the whole process so easy. I felt completely at ease knowing Chanel was in such good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and loving dog sitter. Thank you so much again for taking such amazing care of my girl! 🩷
We had an amazing experience! Our sitter took such wonderful care of our Bichon, Sunny, over the Fourth of July weekend. We could tell she was loved and well cared for while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. Communication was great, and it was clear that Sunny was in caring, capable hands. We are so grateful for the excellent care and would absolutely book with them again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter!
Allison was fantastic with our 5-month-old puppy! She accepted our booking on short notice and did an amazing job accommodating her frequent playtime, potty breaks, and antibiotics. She was very communicative, sending regular updates and photos without us even having to ask. Allison was thorough in learning our puppy’s schedule and needs, and it was obvious how loving and attentive she was throughout the stay. We felt completely at ease knowing our puppy was in such great hands and would absolutely book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in The Colony on Rover is $43.29 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,312 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across The Colony. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of The Colony sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which The Colony landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their The Colony 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 The Colony.
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 The Colony 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.
