“Snowflake was well taken care of for the day while we got to explore the not so dog friendly parts of San Antonio. Breanna was very responsive, friendly, and flexible making it a great experience for us out of towners!”
“She cares just like family. She takes such good care of Quatro 💞. He loves going to her home. It’s clean and tidy which is very important to me. It brings me peace that I know that Quatro is being taken care of in such an excellent manner.”
“Pamela was great with our two fur babies. She sent videos to let us know how things were going on their first play date. She made us feel very comfortable and took great care of Daisy and Dewey.”
“Kristen is so amazing! She is so caring, knowledgeable, and flexable when it comes to taking care of our puppy Atlas, we appreciate Kristen so much. Atlas always has such a great time and we love all the updates we receive throughout the day as well! Special thanks to Kristen and her family for always being our puppies home away from home. :)”
“My boy Paco had a great day with Juan and his dog. It was Paco's first time away from home other than going to the groomer. Juan and his family took great care of him and communicated with me throughout the day.”
“Katie, her wife, and their three four-legged assistants are such an amazing team! I can be a helicopter pawrent but I knew that my pup was in safe, knowledgeable, and loving hands off the bat. Katie sent photos throughout the service and my pup was having tons of fun all the way until pick-up. They have a large yard for the pups to sunbathe in and run around. We spoke at the end of the service and they gave me a run down of how everything went and I greatly appreciated that especially since it helps me get to know how my pup is while I’m away. Overall, my pup had a great time and I had a peace of mind while I was away from him. They are the sweetest humans and pups!”
“This couple is so great with Luna and very professional when it comes to her care. Top tier worry free services for my dog during my busy season is so much appreciated!!”
“My pup loved her home away from home. She gets the wiggles when I mention "Celeste." It's reassuring Brandy was loved on and cared for just as she would be in my home. I won't take her anywhere else.”
“This was my second time using Stephanie and Rover, in less than a week, and once again I couldn’t be happier! Stephanie was so kind and understanding whenever I had questions or felt a little unsure, and she kept me updated whenever I asked. As a first-time Rover user, I truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter or experience. I’m so grateful for the care she showed and definitely hope to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“So kind! And accommodating! Glad she was able to care for our boy - Baymax had a wonderful time, she updated us throughout his stay & is overall so sweet! We will be returning for our pups sitting needs ! Thank you Lovely!”
“Martina was amazing. She made our pups feel right at home. Played with them outside and sent lots of update pictures throughout the day. This was our first time using Rover and she made us feel so comfortable about the whole process. Highly recommend her!!!”
“Cindy is so great to work with! She made both Archie and I feel comfortable right away. Her home is well fenced and dog friendly. I think Archie knew right away that she is a dog lover. :) We will definitely be returning. PS: She sent me an adorable photo of my pup enjoying his play day.”
“Ms. Shannon is so nice and accommodating! She immediately agreed to watch our dog and kept us updated during his stay. We look forward to keep using her services in the near future and highly recommend her as a sitter.”
“I cannot say enough great things about Dawn’s doggie day care! They are the kindest people who love my pup as much as I do (which I wasn’t sure was even possible)! When I drop my puppy off, I know he is going to receive all the love and attention he needs and the picture updates are frequent and wonderful...I end up showing my friends all the pictures because he looks like he is having so much fun! I HIGHLY recommend this sitter!”
“Cassie was amazing and very attentive to Dirk. Cassie was very responsive and respectful when communicating with me. I appreciate her time and patience. Thank you so much cassie”

About: I’ve cared for dogs since middle school. My dogs, my family's dogs, and my friend's dogs. Large or small, young or senior, I’ve worked with them all. In my professional life, I’ve spent over 10 years delivering great experiences for customers, and I bring that same level of care and attention to both your pet and your overall experience. I’m a stay-at-home father who also works app-based contract jobs, which gives me flexibility throughout the day. I’m available from morning through night based on your pet’s needs. I also have a dog at home who regularly joins my child and me on walks around the neighborhood or at a local park. I have experience caring for pets both indoors and outdoors, and I adjust my care based on each dog’s environment and personality. Whether your pet prefers relaxing at home or staying active on walks and outings, I make sure they are safe, engaged, and well cared for. I take the time to understand their needs so they feel comfortable and happy.
“Mr. Jeffrey has taking care of our pup a couple of times now and he is always super respectful and nice. He always answers our messages right away and when we pick up our dog we always find him happy and well taken cared of. We will definitely keep using his services in the near future and recommend him 100%”
“Our baby was so excited to see April and her babies. She completely forgot about me when she saw her. April always takes the best care of our fur baby. There isn’t a single person I trust more than her! 🥹”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Carpenter
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,044 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Carpenter. 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 Carpenter 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,044 sitters in Carpenter, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
