“Celeste was very friendly and responsive when wanting an update on how Coco was doing. She was very thorough with questions about Coco's eating schedule, walking habits, and the little details on how she acts. She took her on walks plenty of walks. Also, can't thank her enough, she allowed me to extend Coco stay for an extra day due to my brother wanting to stay out of town longer.”

About: As a former veterinary clinic employee, I've developed a deep understanding of canine behavior, health, and well-being. My extensive knowledge allows me to provide personalized care tailored to your pet's unique needs. With my three lovable dogs of my own, I'm a seasoned "fur parent" who understands the importance of creating a loving, safe, and stimulating environment. My home dog park, where dogs can socialize, exercise, and play off-leash, is a unique feature that sets me apart from other sitters. Here, your furry friend will enjoy the freedom of playing with friends while you're away, knowing they're in good hands. My passion for dogs, combined with my professional experience and facilities, make me the perfect sitter for your beloved companion. I understand the importance of flexibility and reliability when it comes to pet care. My schedule allows me to accommodate a range of pet care needs, from daily visits to overnight or multi-day stays. I can visit your furry friend during the day, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while also providing peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. We are a family-based boarding home, so your pet will receive plenty of love and attention throughout their stay. My husband works from home, which allows for extra supervision and care during the day, and my daughter also has experience with pet care and pet sitting. Together, we create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet in our care. Whether you’re away for a few hours, a full day, or several days, I’ll make sure your pet receives the care, comfort, and companionship they deserve. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust to your unique needs so you can feel confident that your pet will be well cared for like part of the family. Welcome to my home, where your furry friend will receive the ultimate pampering experience! You're welcome to bring their own bed to sleep in, or they can choose from one of my beds. But it's not just about sleeping - my in-home dog park is the real showstopper! This spacious yard is designed for pets to run wild, play fetch, and make new friends. And for those who love water, they can splash around in my inground pool. The yard is fully fenced and secure, so you can rest assured that your pet will be safe and happy. My home is a haven for pets, and I'm confident that they'll feel right at home.

About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, I bring more than just pet sitting—I bring genuine love, patience, and a deep understanding of canine behavior. Dogs in my care enjoy a safe, comfortable, home-like environment where they can relax, play, and feel like part of the family. I specialize in dog training and behavior and have experience raising puppies, caring for senior dogs, and working with trained service dogs. I understand that every dog has different needs, routines, personalities, and comfort levels. Your peace of mind matters too. I provide regular photo updates, check-in calls, and FaceTime when requested, so you can see your dog, stay connected, and feel confident they’re being well cared for while you’re away. My goal is simple: treat your dog like family and give you the peace of mind that they’re in good hands. As a retired Army veteran who works from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have the flexibility to give pets consistent attention throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. My routine includes regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, training, and plenty of companionship. I also make time to monitor each dog’s behavior and comfort level, especially with puppies, seniors, and dogs with specific routines or needs. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide a calm, home-like environment with frequent supervision and individualized care. I treat every dog in my home like family and make their safety, comfort, and happiness a priority. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, dog-friendly home environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. Dogs receive plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, walks, and affection throughout the day rather than being left alone for extended periods. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications when appropriate, exercise, training, and special care instructions. I’m especially comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with specific behavioral or training needs. I also understand how important it is for owners to feel connected while they’re away. I provide regular photo updates and am happy to offer check-in calls or FaceTime so you can see how your pet is doing. Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, my goal is to create a safe, respectful, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet.

About: I’ve helped with pets and being a sitter for family. My brother and I help each other out when he goes out of town giving me years of experience dog sitting and house sitting. I’m a homebody, live alone and have a fenced backyard. I’m active and like to take walks and hikes since I’m off on weekends keeping pets well walked and happy. I will treat pets with respect and with owners guidelines and expectations. I’m friendly and patient with lots of time on the weekend to keep pets happy.

“Michelle was absolutely amazing with Benji and Remy! From the start, she was communicative, kind, and clearly loves what she does. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Both dogs came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would 100% book with her again. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats and birds. I currently have a German/Dutch Shepherd mix. I work from home, so it’s easy for me to get out during the day. I love animals, and I’d love to help if needed! I work from home, so my schedule is fairly open from 8:00am-3:00pm. After that, my kiddo would be with me for any stops. Weekends are good when I’m available! I can feed, water, stay for playtime, whatever you desire! I love animals, and I know they need breaks throughout the day if people work long hours.

About: I’ve taken care of animal almost my whole life. I’ve experienced situations others might not know how to handle. I have gone from grooming pets, walking around parks, following precise rules pet owners have left me, and allowing lots of playtime. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, horses, sheep’s, ducks, fishes, lobsters, and any animals you can imagine on a farm. I am a full time college student, but always make sure to fit the pets needs/schedule into mine. I will let any owner know if for some reason it will not fit into my schedule allowing them to look for someone else. Pet care becomes a natural part of me. It involves feeding, walking, playtime, and grooming, all of which I try to incorporate consistently throughout the day. Weekly tasks might include vet check-ups, cleaning pet areas, and providing extra care like nail trimming or deep cleaning their bedding. It’s about creating a balance where pet care feels like an enjoyable part of the day, not a chore. In my home, I ensure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and any stimulation they need. This includes regular feeding, daily walks, playtime, and grooming sessions. I also focus on maintaining a clean environment for allowing pets to feel clean and smell well.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Tours

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 88 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Tours. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

97% of sitters in Tours 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 Tours 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 Tours.

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 Tours 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.
