“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!!!”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience and could not be happier with the care our dog received! From the very beginning, Emma welcomed our girl with open arms and treated her like family. It was clear how much love and attention she gives to the pets in her care. She kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to see how happy and comfortable our dog was. What stood out even more was how knowledgeable she is — she took the time to explain her background and experience, which made us feel even more confident leaving our baby with her. When we picked our dog up, she looked completely comfortable, relaxed, and right at home, which says everything. We are beyond grateful for the amazing care and would absolutely book with her again without hesitation. Highly recommend!”

“Honestly, 10/10 recommend ! Trust me when I say you want your dog to stay with Chelsea.

She made sure he got plenty of walks, playtime, and even gave him a bath before coming home. he looked and smelled great! I could tell how happy and comfortable he was during his stay. Rachel kept me updated and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking with her again. highly recommend!”
“This was Allison’s second time watching Scooby, and once again she did an excellent job. She’s attentive, patient, and truly caring—making sure he’s well-fed, exercised, and, most importantly, happy. Throughout our vacation, she kept us updated with pictures which we really appreciated. Scooby loves to cuddle, and Allison made sure he got plenty of attention and affection. It’s clear he enjoys his time with her—it’s like a vacation for him too. She’s also very responsive and keeps us well informed, which gives us peace of mind while we’re away. We already have another trip planned and will definitely be using her again.”

We will definitely use Aryn again for future trips!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 7 years and have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone who is trustworthy, patient, and attentive. I provide reliable care, including feeding, playtime, companionship, administering medications when needed, and maintaining your pet’s normal routine. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness while you’re away. Pet care fits very well into my schedule because I currently have a flexible availability. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care, ensuring they receive consistent companionship, feeding, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable and secure, and I strive to provide reliable, attentive care while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and supervised environment while following each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and house rules. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their needs and personality to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while they are away.

Lasaiah did a wonderful job with our two girls. They came home happy and nurtured. Lasaiah picked them up and dropped them off which was a huge help. She has positive energy and we’d definitely reach out to her first again the next time we’re in town. Thank you, Lasaiah!
Candy was GREAT! Not only she take our booking last minute, but she made sure that our sweet boy had the best stay that he could! She was very detailed in making sure that Aladdin was well taken care of and felt at home during his stay. Candy also sent us multiple updates throughout the day so we had a snapshot of how he was doing while we were away. She also mad sure that during his booking he was not left alone for an extended period of time. I would definitely recommend Candy if you need a sitter for your pet. I know we will be utilizing her services whenever we can!

There are 1,537 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Universal City. About 92% 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.

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.
