“Tammy and her husband were very sweet and took Bubs and for a daycare visit with last-minute notice when our previous sitter had to cancel. Bubs had a good visit and played with two other really sweet dogs that she was sitting. Tammy was flexible and very easy to get along with.”
About: I spent a few years working at an animal hospital. I am able to administer both oral medication and insulin. I had a diabetic dog myself and gave him insulin shots twice a day for four years. I am also very good with cats and know how to take care of chickens. Animals are my passion. My life revolves around animals. Taking care of my animals is basically what my life is about. I am big in to animal activism; animals are my life. They will be treated like family! I know how to take care of animals properly and keep them safe.

About: With 5 years of experience in pet care, I have a deep love for all kinds of dogs. My passion for dogs started when I was just a baby, and it has only grown since then. Whether playful puppies or gentle seniors, I genuinely enjoy providing the care and attention each dog deserves. Im available Monday-Friday and Weekends occasionally. Whether it’s mornings or evenings we will find a schedule that works best for you and your dogs needs. I have an acre of fenced yard where your dogs can run around supervised and play with plenty of toys.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities.

I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’m currently a college student, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to pet care. Having a dog of my own, I understand the importance of daily attention, playtime, and care. I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide dependable care throughout the week. I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and routines. I take the time to learn what makes each pet comfortable and do my best to accommodate their individual needs. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for more than 10+ years. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I have experience in changing dog diapers and mouth feeding medicines if necessary. I’m currently a stay at home mom, so i’ll have plenty of time to play with your doggy. I’m available for boarding any day of the week. The only time your dog will be left alone is when I have to drop and pick up my daughter from school. I have a fenced yard and no pets currently. Unfortunately, my dog passed the beginning of January 2025. However, I do have a 5 year old daughter that loves to play with pets and can keep your pup company.

About: I have been grooming and pet sitting for 16 years. I own and operate my own dog grooming salon (Motown Mutts) . I regularly pull and foster from local shelters and have experience with frightened, nervous and special needs dogs. I have a ton of references and have quickly earned a reputation for providing excellent care in my area. My children were raised doing this and dogs that don’t normally love kids love mine because they speak the language. The dogs are very rarely left alone. My daughter is an LVT and handy for emergencies when I call. I can also groom them with advanced notice during their stay. We love our pet sitters like our own and become very attached to them. My babies usually run to my door and can’t wait to get inside. I am certified in emergency canine CPR and therapeutic massage therapy. The dogs will go to work with me daily unless I find the daycare experience stressful to them (older or nervous pups). I also have employees at my salon so they are available in emergencies The pups will be my pet while with me, we wake up at 4 am, have our meals and then head to the salon for the day to play. I don’t do a lot of playtime outside in the summer during the hottest times but we exercise in the evenings when it’s cooler. If there is an emergency I have staff willing to help out. I prefer no Sunday pick ups or drop offs because that’s family day
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to each dog as if they were my own. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra support. I’m especially good with routines, administering medications, and making pets feel safe and loved in any environment. I understand how important trust is when it comes to pet care, and I always prioritize clear communication with pet parents and consistency for their pets. Pet care fits really well into my routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m around throughout the day to give pets attention, keep up with their routines, and make sure they’re comfortable and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I focus on creating a calm, clean, and safe environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and anything specific the owner requests. In my home, pets have a cozy, quiet space and lots of attention. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and keep things consistent to help pets feel comfortable and at ease.
About: I have had multiple animals through my life, from dogs to cats to rabbits so my experience with animals comes from a variety of animal lovers. Im currently working from home so most of my day is pretty relaxed and not on a set schedule. This way I can pivot my routine based on the needs of your animal. I have a fenced yard and a 7 year old who loves animals as well so your animal will have a small human best friend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 315 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Authon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Authon commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of November 2026, there are 315 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of TX. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
