“Crystal took wonderful care of Oso and went above and beyond while watching him. She carefully followed all feeding instructions, made sure he stayed on his routine, and took him on walks as requested. It was clear she gave him extra attention, love, and care while we were away. I highly recommend Crystal to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Zachary Was AMAZING!! He took really great care of Lola & she had a blast ! Great communication & will go above and beyond for you & your fur baby!!! Definitely will be our regular pet sitter! BOOK BOOK BOOK!!”
“Diana kept in touch with pics and videos during my baby's stay with her. She looked happy, well and clean when I picked her up. Thanks Diana for taking care of my lil munchkin.”
“When Walter is with Malcolm and his family we don’t worry. We know he’s in a loving caring environment. He loves staying “at camp” and when we ask if he’s ready for camp he gets so excited. Can’t say enough about how well Walter ( our spaz) is taken care of and loved while we’re away. Our thanks to Malcolm and his family.”
“Kathleen took such good care of Brownee! Brownee came back home well fed and happy. She definitely got comfortable at Kathleen’s and I’m happy for it. Once again, Kathleen shared updates and pictures throughout the stay, and when I picked Brownee up, Kathleen gave a thorough overview of all happenings. I really appreciate it.”
“Jennifer was amazing with our dogs! Carrie had a lot of trouble with separation anxiety and Rascal is actually blind and needed extra care because of that. They took the extra time with both to make sure they were very comfortable throughout their stay. She kept us up to date with texts and pics as well. I highly recommend them and will be using them for future stays.”
“This is our second time trusting our Bella with Andrea and Jerry, and once again they did such a great job taking care of our baby and sending us plenty of updates and pics. Bella loves hanging out Loki at their house.”
“Renee, Greg and their family are WONDERFUL! I HIGHLY recommend. This was our first time leaving our almost 2 year old Frenchton while going on a cruise. Jade (dog) had a great time. We were constantly receiving pictures of her playing and updates. When we picked her up, she was still as joyful as when dropped off. Thank you so much Renee & Gregory for treating Jade as your own.”
“Abigail and her family were wonderful! Such a sweet and caring family! They took great care of our goldendoodle and treated him as a part of their family. Excellent communication and fun pictures everyday which we really appreciated. I think our dog loved his stay and is looking forward to the next visit!”
“Amazing communication, daily pictures (multiple times a day), my dog looked happy the entire time. I love that she gets to socialize with other dogs as she is an “only fur-child” and doesn’t get to as often. I’m definitely going to be a repeat client when the need arises. Thank you Chee & Mark + family!”
“Julia was amazing with Coco!!! She treated her like her own and updated me daily with pics! She was also very flexible when my flight was delayed and kept her all day when I wasn’t able to pick her up. She’s amazing, will def board with her in the future. Thank you Julia!!!”
“Fantastic pet sitters. These people really care about your pets! They send constant photo and video updates as well as messages! I give them my absolute highest recommendation to all considering them for your pet sitting needs!”
“We couldn't be happier with Gabby's care for our fur babies! From the moment we reached out, her communication was excellent. She kept us updated with regular messages and adorable pictures, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It's clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats them with the utmost care. We highly recommend Gabby to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Christine took care of my dog (on short notice when my normal sitter had to cancel) with great care. She sent new, delightful, photos every day. The truth was told the way my dog, Lily, responded to her both coming and going. There is no doubt I would happy use her again when needed.”
“This was my first time using the Rover app, as I normally take my fur baby to a pet hotel when I travel. My experience with Yuliya and Yaroslav was nothing short of amazing! I received multiple picture updates twice a day, and it was clear they treated my baby like their own. The level of care, attention, and love they provided gave me complete peace of mind. I will always check to make sure Yuliya and Yaroslav are available whenever I travel—highly recommend!”
“This is our best Rover experience, ever! Leilani and her family took excellent care of Kylo and sent us pictures of him smiling. I highly recommend them for amazing pet care that will exceed expectations.”

Jacob went above and beyond to accommodate our pup’s needs. He is empathetic, calm, and experienced with animals. His approach is positive, confident, and controlled, which immediately put both us and our dog at ease. We felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in his care. We highly recommend Jacob and would absolutely book with him again!
I can’t say enough good things about the way Kathleen took care of my dog Bear. The environment she provides is clean and safe inside and out. She loves and understands dogs and provides for their individual needs. Bear was happy for the whole five days he was there.
I have never been so pleased as I was with Oshin and her husband!! My dogs have never been away from us more than one day and she took the best care of them. We have two mini schnauzers and they are so emotional when it comes to missing us. Oshin did a great job in keeping them happy. She is the best ever. We felt so secure after meeting her that we actually had a good time being away. We can’t say enough on how wonderful these two people are. Would go back in a New York minute!!
Gabriela is top-tier! You won’t find a nicer, more caring, and communicative person on this app for your pet(s). She took care of my two dogs for a business week as if they were her own. If I need another sitter for any amount of time I will certainly be contacting Gabriela! Hands down.
Rebecca was such an amazing sitter for our little pup! We felt very comfortable with Rebecca and she always kept us updated on Kahleesi and her time with the other dogs. I would 100% trust Rebecca to take care of Kahleesi again. Thank you so much and for all your patience with our extremely delayed travel day back 🫣
This is the second time Anabel has cared for our Golden Retriever - Copper, during our recent travels. She has taken great care of Copper both times, keeping us informed with photographs and updates. He came home happy both times. We will certainly board with her again.
Mary Kathryn and her family were awesome! She sent me a ton of pictures and updates on my boy Winston while I was out of town! I could tell he felt loved and at home while he was there - he even seemed sad to leave! Would highly recommend Mary Kathryn and will be using her services again in the future!
I contacted Jacob to watch my two dogs while we went on family vacation. We met up so he good meet them prior to booking. They loved the space in his backyard immediately and felt very comfortable. He sent notes with updates of pics and videos during their stay. They even said bye to him as we were leaving. Will definitely be using his services again.
Shannon was absolutely extraordinary in every aspect. We did a meet & greet before the actual booking, listened to all of my Charlie's quirks & habits and then used the time she had him to reinforce training he's previously had. And then taught me how to do it, too. She also sent progress pics & notes through his whole stay. I will definitely be booking again!

FAQs for Boarding - Watauga
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Watauga on Rover is $35 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,738 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Watauga. 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.
96% of Watauga 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 Watauga 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 Watauga 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 Watauga.
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 Watauga 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.
