“Nancy and her grandaughter did an excellent job of taking care of my dog Cookie. They sent pictures and kept me updated on how she was doing. Would definitely use them again.”
“Roxy LOVES going to keliann's house to stay. I know this for a fact, because Keliann sends pictures of Roxy playing and she always looks so happy in the pictures. Please do yourself a favor, and board your dog with Keliann!”
“Hamlets is so amazing, they love dogs and it shows. I love how she keeps us updated and posts pictures. Your dog will get so spoiled they won’t want to come home. We have used her two times now and have no regrets!!”
“Ashley was amazing and took such great care of Hardy! She was very responsive, communicated all the time, and also sent pictures throughout the day. You can tell she cared for Hardy as if he was her own, and we greatly appreciate it!”
“I was worried about leaving my 10wk ofd puppy with anyone for the first time, especially knowing there were other big dogs in the house, when he'd never really met any dogs before. BUT, to my VERY pleasant surprise, it proved to be one of the BEST days my baby ever had, as realized from the video sent to me while he was there. My pup ended up taking over the place; literally running around, jumping on, and over the big dogs who were sweet enough to tolerate his energetic l'il self? 🤐🤣 It was hilarious, and immediately put me at ease! Mr Chang was even kind enough to take him as a last minute booking as I knew no one, but trusted Rover from the past! I can't thank he, and his friend enough for accommodating us, and they deserve more than the 5 stars available! 🥰”
“Ashley was so great with our fur baby! She sent lots of pics and videos and gave me updates on what he was up to. This was our first time leaving him with someone else and she did not disappoint! I felt reassured the whole time that he was in good hands. Definitely recommend!”
“Lacey took such good care of my Harley while I was away on a business trip for a week. I loved that Lacey took photos, videos and provided me with updates. I could tell my Harley was having so much fun playing with the other pups. I will definitely book with Lacey again.”
“Emilio was great with Rafa! was exhausted when we picked him up from all the playing and all the walking they did. Raife usually has a hard time with new people and Emilio did great with him. He has a new friend for life! Thank you for all the care and attention you gave Raifa!!”
“So happy with how Regan took care of our little Zero. You can tell the love she puts into carting for your dogs and I would 100% recommend her for anyone needing a sitter for their furry family member”
“Finally, our pup Apawlo found a second home. Roland is awesome, we received regular updates and took care of Apawlo better than we would have taken care of him We will be regulars”
“We are so thankful we found Portia! Portia was very caring and professional. She went above and beyond by giving us photo updates and picking up Goldie! We definitely will reach out again!”
“Timmesha & Joe are like Nevada’s second family. They are reliable, patient, and keep her very active. Selfishly, I don’t want to share how truly great they are because then they will be all booked! This family is a gem.”
“Ariel took excellent care of my Bailey, so glad to have made the connection. I appreciated Ariel for sending pictures and updates without asking, definitely made me feel comfortable knowing he was in great hands and will book again!!”

About: I have lots of experience with both cats and dogs. I have also had fish, rabbits, and snakes (at separate times) in the past. Currently I have a family of three at home, a German Shepard, kitten and senior cat (15 yo). I have pet sit for many family members and friends in the past as well as taking care of my own pets and elderly cat I have had since he was a kitten. I am currently working part-time as a pet sitter in between my college courses. I also have a corporate job, but am looking to spend my extra time taking care of animals and going on walks to help me lose weight! I have a fenced yard and an outdoor kennel. I personally prefer to keep animals cage-free, but I have have space for owners to bring their kennels for their animals. I have my own transportation. I also have a separate home office that is available is animals do not get along or sometimes some animals need their own space! All of my animals are super friendly and curious, especially our German Shepard he loves making new friends!
“She’s very responsive, sweet and trustworthy. She took good care of my boy with good communication and he came back smelling so nice and even had a bandana. Will book again when I go out of town :) 10/10 recommend”
“Could not have been better. We got delayed and they offered to keep our critters longer. Great communication and updates. My new permanent dog sitters. Great people”
“From the moment we arrived, Truman felt completely at ease—she went right up to Janna with no hesitation! It was clear that she and her husband had a calm, welcoming energy that dogs can sense right away. Throughout the stay, they kept me updated with photos and messages, and I could tell that our baby was relaxed and happy the entire time. We were at ease as well knowing she is in good hands. They also accommodated our last minute concerns and requests. I’m so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and caring. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in West Columbia on Rover is $26.75 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 394 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across West Columbia. 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.
100% of West Columbia 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 West Columbia 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 West Columbia 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 West Columbia.
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 West Columbia 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.
