“Our energetic lab had a wonderful time! Lauren was excellent and accommodating, sent many pictures and videos, and was communicative. We enjoyed our time away knowing our pup was in great hands!”
“The best rover experience we’ve ever had!! We never like leaving our girl behind when we have to go out of town, but Evgeniya was absolutely amazing. Before I ever had a chance to wonder how our pup was doing, we had pictures! Very communicative and I know our girl was loved and well taken care of! Highly recommend!”
“Donna took great care of our boy Gideon (standard schnauzer). We really appreciated the frequent updates and pictures. We loved, knowing he was in great hands, got lots of walks, and had fun playing frisbee. We look forward to having her watch him again, her home is set up so nicely for her Rover stays.”
“Luke and Leia had another great stay with Karen. Thank you for watching them for us. We appreciate all the pictures and walks…. and the great care you take while they are with you.”
“Shannon was very accommodating with the hours I needed over the weekend. She sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend and Luna came back happy and relaxed!! So thankful for her, will be using her again next time I need to go out of town.”
“Absolute Best Rover experience. Cassie and her family were a perfect fit for our baby mini golden doodle and 11 yr old pitbull! Looking forward to many more sleepovers. 🙏🏽🙂”
“Max was great. I had to leave my pup for a week and was very anxious about it, but from the moment I drove up to his house I started feeling better about it. The yard is well-secured for a 13-lb dog. Max is very responsive and sent pictures daily. The inside of the house is so accommodating for dogs. I highly recommend Max and will definitely be using his services again when the need arises.”
“Maggs was great. She gave daily updates and pictures and there were plenty of dogs for our pup to play with. Bucky seemed to love her and didn’t want to leave. :)”
“I almost don’t even want to tell anyone how great she was so I can keep her to myself. I felt like my dogs were at home. The dogs had their own bedroom to sleep in and full access to clean backyard at all times. Her dog was an added bonus because my dogs loved to play with him. My dogs weren’t even eager to get in car like they usually are when I pick them up from somewhere. Definitely found our go to dog sitter!”
“This is the second time we have boarded Finn with Alix and she is so great! We received daily updates with pictures showing how much fun she was having with her. I highly recommend Alix!”
“We loved dawn taking care of our pup! She was very nice, communicative, sent updates and photos/videos regularly. Lexie had a great time in her care! I would definitely use dawn again in the future, thank you for taking such good care of my girl!!!”
“I plan on booking Teryca for all of my dog bookings. She's extremely good with dogs. Sent daily pictures and videos, took him to the park for fun time, and even gave him lots of hugs and cuddles. 5 stars all day!”
“Ana took great care of my sweet Buddy! It was his first time to have anyone watch him. Ana texted photos and updates from time to time. She allowed me to bring his kennel, blanket, bed, and toys! I think he was as comfortable as he could be while being in a new place without his family! Thank you Ana! I'll book you again when I take my next trip!”
“Megan is so sweet and I knew right away she was perfect to watch Hank. She’s a great communicator and she took the time to introduce her dogs to Hank one at a time. Worked out great! Can’t wait to use her again in a few weeks!”
“Excellent communication, sent updates and photos. Asked about the pup before agreeing to service. Has other calm small dogs who did not act aggressive at drop off. Highly recommend. 💗”
“Lasaiah took very good care of our cat Candy!! We knew she was loved on while we were vacationing and didn’t have to worry. Lasaiah picked Candy up and dropped her off without a hitch and Candy is just as loving and sweet as we left her. We’ll definitely book Lasaiah for our next vacation!!!”
“My dog, Lilly, just loves Lillian and her family. She is always well cared for, and she is always exhausted when I get her back. I highly recommend Lillian for your dog-sitting needs.”
“Sarah took great care of my pup. I would trust her anytime to care for her again. She updated me with pictures and re assured me that she was doing just fine. Mu dog even got spoiled with daily walks! If your thinking about considering Sarah to care for your pup, I promise your pup is in good hands.”
“Teddy stayed with Kristen and her family for 10 days and I think it’s safe to say he had a great time. He was happy to see his own family when picked up but was sad to leave her home and actually cried in the car ride home. We received daily pictures of all his adventures and were happy to know he was in great hands while we were away. We will definitely rebook with Kristen on our next getaway.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Universal City
This was our first time boarding our two dogs, who are 8 and 9 years old, so I was very nervous. From the moment I met Steve and Randy, I felt relieved knowing they were in good hands. They have taken wonderful care of our dogs and sent us lots of pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. We couldn’t be happier with their care. They are wonderful sitters—highly recommend! Five stars! 👍🐶❤️
Candy was wonderful with Boo Bear and Suzie Bear. Both of our dogs are seniors and have medications and special care needs, and she handled everything with patience and attention. She kept us updated while we were away, which gave us a lot of peace of mind, and it was so nice to see how comfortable and happy the doggies were with her. We truly appreciate the care she gave them and would absolutely trust her to watch them again.

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Universal City on Rover is $29.97 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 1,549 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Universal City. About 93% of Universal City sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
