“Selena’s stay at Hunter’s was great! Selena enjoyed playing with her two dogs and has come home happy and exhausted! This was our first experience having her stay away with someone we didn’t know ahead of time. We would definitely use her again.”

“I would give Heather 10 stars if it were possible! We’ve boarded our dog on several occasions and it’s always been a tough experience because she doesn’t eat very well and has seemed depressed while we’re gone. Our experience with Heather was the complete opposite; our dog was content and happy the entire time, something we didn’t think was possible while boarding 😅. Heather was very communicative and sent photos and videos of our dog every day while we were away. Her facility is also very clean and well kept, and feels warm and inviting as opposed to the large dog crates we’re accustomed to with other boarders. Heather obviously loves dogs and we were so grateful that she took such good care of our dog while we were gone for 10 days. I can’t recommend her and her services highly enough, this was hand down the BEST boarding experience we and our dog have ever had.”

“We had an amazing experience with Katie (and her sweet kiddos/helpers) as our sitter. 😊 She was great with communication, super sweet, has an amazing yard, and we are hopeful that she liked our girl enough to agree to watch her again soon. Highly recommend!”

“Harper loved staying with Jennifer, they sent pictures, communicated regularly, made sure Harper was comfortable and treated her like their own. Very thankful we have found our "go to" pet sitter in Galveston! Not to mention their location is very central and easy to pickup and drop off! Thank you thank you!”

“Robin was kind and gentle with our boy Yoda. He loved it there, I could tell by that big smile on his face. Being available during Christmas was a big deal! Thank you Robin for caring for our little man, even letting him snuggle!!”

“Our dog had an amazing time boarding with this family. We had a lot of updated pictures, she loved playing with Winnie, and we could tell that she was super comfortable with Aislyn and Carson as she was always cuddling with them. We really appreciated them allowing her on furniture including bed. It was like she never left home. 😊 Thank you!”

“This was my first time using Rover, and Talia and Andrew surpassed any and all of my expectations! Not only are they responsible, but they are friendly and warm. My dogs were comfortable from the get-go, which put me at ease. Their house is pet friendly and safe. Pictures and updates were provided of my babies several times per day. 10 out of 10 recommend and will definitely be using them again!!”

“Haylie was great with our three little, energetic dogs. She was punctual and a great communicator. Haylie kept them busy, and sent photos. She checked in with questions and updates, and also kept them happy. They were smiling and enjoying their time, as you could see in the photos. I felt confident leaving the dogs with Haylie, and would certainly use her services again. Thank you!”

I’m so grateful to be able to trust them with my stinkabutt. 🐶”

“Timothy was great with the dogs! I late picking them up because I was out of town and someone else was driving so I wasn't able to get back as quickly as I'd thought. Timothy responded quickly when I let him know and we rescheduled for a later time. When I picked them up they were happy and smelled great.”

“We Highly Recommend Heidi! Our dogs love her and get excited when we tell them they are going to Heidi's. She treats them as they are her own and provides excellent care. We receive regular updates and photos via text. They get lots of play time and love time! Whether you live on the island or you come to vacation on the island and need someone to care for your dogs do not hesitate to give Heidi a call. She is worth every penny because we know we can feel comfortable during our time away when Heidi is caring for our sweet babies.”

“Jennifer was absolutely FABULOUS!! We will definitely be amongst her long list of returning customers! This was our firsts time using a dog sitting service and I was a little bit nervous to leave our two pups with a stranger but within moments of meeting Jennifer I knew our pups were in good hands. Her home was very clean, easy to find and obviously set up by someone who wants the best for your dog during their stay. Our dogs loved her instantly and she was so sweet to my kids as well. She was very flexible with our schedule and communicated quickly through the app. Cannot recommend her enough!”

About: Hi! We're Ashley and Chantelle, a dependable animal-loving couple who treats every pet like family. One of the biggest benefits of booking with us is that Ashley works from home, so your pet will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. We're also proud pet parents to two dogs of our own—Mylo, who is 8 years old, and Rose, who is 4. Caring for them every day has given us firsthand experience with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and the love and attention dogs need to thrive. We enjoy staying active and providing walks, playtime, belly rubs, and lots of affection. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or senior, we'll follow their routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. We believe in reliable communication and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands. We believe pets are family. Unless requested by the owner, dogs are not kenneled and are free to relax, play, and enjoy our home just like our own dogs, Mylo and Rose. We look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. Ashley works from home, so pets are supervised and cared for throughout the day with plenty of attention, potty breaks, companionship, feeding, walks, and playtime. After Chantelle gets off work, we continue walks, play, and care together, making sure pets receive consistent love, structure, and attention throughout the day. We prioritize safety, trust, and a calm, pet-friendly environment. At our home, we have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and supervised play. Pets in our care are treated like family and are never left unattended during outdoor time. We maintain a clean, comfortable space where pets can relax and feel at ease. Dog daycare is also available in our home with plenty of supervision, attention, and care throughout the day.
“Ariel was the best! Not only did she answer and accept my last minute request at 2:00 a.m. for the same day at 10:00 a.m. in MINUTES, when plans changed, and I asked for my 5 month old puppy to stay for an extra hour and a half, she was more than willing. She provided constant updates and photos throughout the day, and kept my boy entertained (he was exhausted that night- haha). She is truly a life saver. Thank you endlessly, Ariel. Truly! You're the best :)”

“Traci, Jason and family were wonderful put sitters. Lily loves a yard, stimulation, and kindness. She enjoyed all three while staying in their home. I would highly recommend this sitter to other Rover patrons. Heather Wooten”

“Sarah is a ROCKSTAR!! This was the first time we've ever left our baby, Xena with anyone, but sadly they wouldn't let her on our week long cruise. However, Sarah calmed our anxiety in many ways because we knew she was in good hands. She met up with us at the dog park and let Xena get acquainted and comfy with Shadow and Louey. She sent me pics and videos of Xena throughout the week which warmed my heart. She and her pups treated Xena as one of the gang. I thought I'd have been much more anxious but Sarah knew just what to do to help. We don't travel often but if we do, I know who I'm coming back to! Thanks Sarah, youre the best!!!”

About: I have about seven years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and have raised and cared for multiple dogs from puppyhood. My experience includes feeding, daily walks, potty training and routines, playtime, basic grooming, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. Having raised puppies, I’m also familiar with the extra patience, supervision, and consistency younger dogs need. I’m comfortable caring for both puppies and adult dogs and will follow your dog’s normal routine and care instructions closely so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away! I have a very flexible schedule and am home throughout most of the day, which allows me to give pets plenty of individual attention, playtime, potty breaks, and supervision. I’m able to accommodate each pet’s normal routine and can provide frequent outdoor time, enrichment, and lots of affection throughout their stay. I also have plenty of flexibility for drop-off and pick-up times. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I live in a one-story home with a fully fenced backyard and currently have one cat and no dogs of my own. If your dog is uncomfortable with cats, my cat can be safely kept completely separate during their stay. For boarding and daycare, I only accept pets from one household at a time. This allows me to provide a quieter, more personalized experience with plenty of individual attention, rather than having several unfamiliar dogs together at once. I’ve found this setup is especially helpful for dogs who are anxious, older, have medical needs, or simply do better with more one-on-one care. Your pet can settle into a comfortable home environment while still receiving frequent outdoor time, enrichment, affection, and regular updates throughout their stay.
“Alyssa and her family took such good care of our dog and she sent so many updates! He was well loved and well taken care of and we will definitely book with her again. He had a great time!!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love and personalized attention for each pet, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for like part of my own family. I also focus on clear communication with pet owners to keep them updated and at ease. I am currently a senior in highschool and the thing i enjoy most is animals! I have two maltipoos in my home and i am their main care taker but just meeting new dogs brightens up my day. It’s not about the money when it comes to pet care, it’s getting to spread my love to other animals! I make sure to keep pets comfortable and calm by sticking to their usual routine, giving them lots of love, playtime, and exercise. Whether they’re at my place or yours, I follow any special care instructions closely and keep the environment safe and clean. I also update you regularly so you know your pets are happy and well cared for.
