“Nakeya watched my dog Brandi and her cousin Adonys. They were nervous going in, but they came out absolutely loving her!

“This was my first rover experience and to say I enjoyed it was an understatement. I received photos of Zoe during her visit. She was well taken care of. I normally would never let anyone babysit her outside of family but someone recommended rover. Will definitely be booking Teena again! Thanks so much for making me feel at ease.”
“Mary was fantastic. She took care of our Nala as if she was her own. Nala loved playing with her dog Junie, I’m sure she is going to miss her. I would definitely book with Mary again ❤️”
“Ms. Elaine is so kind and courteous and made me feel like I left my Fur babies in good and safe hands. I highly recommend her and will definitely keep coming back as long as she will have them. She is a great sitter.”

“Melinda was great with our dog Beau! She was super easy to communicate with and kept us updated with pics and messages, which we really appreciated. Beau seemed really happy and comfortable the whole time. She followed all our instructions and clearly took good care of him. We came home to a happy pup 😊 Would definitely book with her again!”
“I can’t recommend her enough as a dog sitter. She’s not only incredibly attentive to my pup’s needs, but she also communicates quickly and thoughtfully. I always feel at ease knowing my dog is in such careful hands!”
“Rebekah was amazing with our pups! I was a bit nervous as my dogs haven't ever had a sitter outside of family, but I couldn't be happier with the service Rebekah provided. She sent us daily pics and updates which were greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Rebekah and will most certainly use her again.”
“Perfect! If you're looking to have great care for your pet look no further. Our dog had a wonderful stay with them. They have 2 dogs of their own that he played with and kept him company. He also loved the attention from Aldrin and Teresa. They are a sweet friendly couple. Someone was always home to watch them and they took him on plenty of walks. That really helps when our dog is in a new place with new faces. We also appreciate their organization and communication skills. They confirmed the appointment the day before, asked good questions about our dog and provided just the right amount of pics/updates. The attention to detail is very much appreciated. We will definitely use them in the future and I know our dog will be looking forward to it.”
“I had a good experience in boarding my 2 Rottweilers ages 9 and 11 months to Luis. My female pup is on her development age where she acts skittish and growls when approach by people she does not know. Because of this behavior and having a big pup, I requested a meet and greet to see if Luis can handle my dog. On the meet up, as expected my female pup acted nervous and growled to Luis but Luis was so patient and gentle to took away her fear and slowly earned her trust. During my dogs 3 night stay, Luis took care of my pups like as his own pet. My pups really had vacation of their own, enjoying to Luis’ beautiful dog resort while my family are out of town. Luis has perfect place for dogs where they can have fun for a lifetime.”
“I would totally recommend Kara. I’m so thankful she made my fur baby’s birthday so special while we were out of town. I know my Shelby girl had soo much fun with them. Such a sweet family for sure.”
“Samantha is the BEST! She cares for my pup with the same care, love and attention as her own. She's attentive and keeps me regularly updated with photos to provide comfort while I'm away. I'm grateful for her services the last year+.”

Kristina was such an excellent choice for taking care of our dog, Tux while we went out of town. You can tell she really loves dogs and takes very good care of them as well as have the understanding and patience for them. I will most definitely be using her again in the future!
Diana was amazing! We had a meet and greet before booking which was great, letting our dog interact with hers to see how they’d get along and have our dog become familiar with her home. We received plenty of updates with photos and videos. Will definitely book again :)
Kim is an incredible and loving sitter for my little baby Dougie! Dougie loves Kim and she takes awesome care of him and provides the best updates/pics. Kim always greets me with a beautiful smile. Dougie will definitely be back to stay with Kim and his little fur friends!
Vanessa is one of the most caring and reliable sitter that I have used. She is not only knowledgable about taking proper care of animals, she is also responsible in making sure they are safe and loved. Vanessa took care of our four dogs extremely well, and I would use her again if ever needed. Vanessa also communicates really well and makes sure everyone is on the same page. She helped us out when we were not going to be back on time to collect our pups, and this showed me how much she cares about sitting and it is not just a job to her.

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.
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.
96% of sitters in Waxahachie 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 Waxahachie 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 Waxahachie.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Waxahachie. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Waxahachie 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
