“My wife and I needed a dog sitter at the last minute as we were going on a nine day cruise. Jennifer and Brian agreed to watch our Coco and did an amazing job. They sent us updates with pictures on how she’s doing without us even having to ask. When we got back in town from the vacation, I asked them if I can extend Coco’s stay for one night and they agreed with no problem. I can’t recommend a better dog, sitting family than them. We look forward to using their services it’s every chance we get. Awesome family and we appreciate them greatly!”
“We couldn’t have been more pleased with Nana and Scott. They stepped in when our usual sitters were out of town over Christmas. They sent lots of pics and daily updates and were exceptionally kind when our dog took a day to adjust to having another male dog. We will not hesitate to use them again!”
“Highly recommended! They watched my dog for a week and created such a calm, stress-free environment. It was clear my dog was in great hands. Communication was great, though getting a couple more daily photo updates would make it perfect. Overall, an amazing experience and I'll definitely be booking with them again!”
“Sylvania is THE BEST!! My baby loves her, and do too ❤️ She has AWESOME customer service and my dog will continue to go to her , she treats ALL her dogs as her own!!”
“Natalie was absolutely wonderful! My older beagle settled right down into her comfortable abode for 8 plus days. Natalie was a great communicator and sent really cute pictures throughout my doggy's stay there. She took wonderful care of Ruby and I will use her again in a heartbeat! Natalie is very accommodating and followed the schedule with Ruby.”
“Jennifer is absolutely excellent! My dog, Izzy, was recovering from surgery and she was an absolute mess. Jennifer made sure she took her medicine, kept up with her special diet, made sure her incision didn’t get infected, and loved on Izzy like she was her own dog. She kept us updated on her progress. I will definitely book her again. She is a true lifesaver!”
“I have trusted Jessica & Nathaniel to care for my dog, Sunshine, while I was out of town a couple times now. They have consistently been very communicative/quick to respond, flexible and understanding when I had to do late pickups due to travel delays, and attentive to Sunshine’s medication schedule. Most importantly, I could tell Sunshine enjoyed her stay in their very dog friendly home. She remembered their house and was ready to jump out of the car as soon as we pulled up for her second visit!”
“Manda and her mom Karen were wonderful! They sent constant updates and photos and really made us feel safe with leaving our Bo with them. I would 100% use their services again! Thank you Manda!!”
“Jennifer gave us peace of mind while we are on vacation. She continued to give us updates and sent pictures of our baby. This is Kelly’s vacation home while we are away. See you soon Jennifer.”
“They were very accommodating. We were happy with the care our mini schnauzer received. This was only the third time we’ve ever left him in the care of others so was a bit nervous, but all went well. Would recommend and would definitely use their services again in the future.”
“Mocha had an amazing time with Kace and her family. They took really good care of him and made sure he was comfortable. Kace did a great job sending us pictures and updates of Mocha through his stay! Mocha will definitely see you all again soon!”
“Never have to worry when I leave my sweet girl with chancy!! If you are looking to a reliable and someone who is going to show your pups all love!! Chancy is your person!!”
“What a GREAT experience!! Our two Boston terriers were spoiled rotten by the entire family for a week. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation because we weren’t worried about our dogs. They took excellent care of them - daily walks, lots of playtime, picture updates, and an abundance of hugs and cuddles! I highly recommend Michelle & Allen for any of your pet sitting needs! I know we will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Debasish and Adrija took such a wonderful and loving care of our pup. They shared pictures and kept us updated regularly. We would Highly recommend them and we will definitely leave Pixie with them again in future.”
“PHENOMENAL!! Absolutely loved Sophia & Andrew. They sent the cutest photos and videos throughout the day and I could tell they cuddled and played with my Pug all day everyday! I highly recommend using them and will 100% be using them again!”
“Caitlin was wonderful with our three dogs! We received lots of photos and updates, and they were so comfortable and happy with her. We highly recommend her and plan to book with her again in the future!”
“Ashanti was wonderful with my pets. She was concerned about "Rockys" appetite as he is a finicky eater and made him chicken. (I want to stay if I don't want something to eat) Duffy who is an elderly gentledog, looked very relaxed in the pictures and appeared very loved. I will be using her often whenever I go out of town as I can fully trust her with my petbabies. Thank you Ashanti for your professionalism and putting up with Rocky's shenanigans.”
“Gabriela's housemate watched our 7 month old puppy and he did a great job! It was our first time leaving our puppy with someone else, and Javier kept us well updated and informed. Would definitely consider leaving our puppy here again. Thanks for a good job!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - The Colony
Michelle took such good care of Cocoa while we were away. My golden retriever is a hyper sensitive dog and gets super clingy. He was comfortable and happy with Michelle. We appreciated frequent updates on him. I can tell Michelle was actually paying attention to Cocoa because she noticed his ear infection and pointed it out. I am definitely going to trust Michelle with Cocoa for future stays.
Marisa was really good with coco we were worried about the first night since it was first time but Marisa made her comfortable and everything went great. And was wonderful with updates on her along with pics and everything highly recommend her and her husband. Our baby came home happy we will definitely use them again when needed
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!
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.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in The Colony on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 4,263 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.
95% 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.
