About: Throughout my life, I've owned/cared for a range of family pets--5 dogs, 2 cats, guinea pigs, hamsters and mice. As an foster and volunteer for the Austin Humane Society, Dallas Pets Alive, and the SPCA, I have cared for animals ranging from newborn litters to abandoned seniors, and volunteered at two therapeutic horse ranches... helping ensure the calm, steady relationships between horse and rider. This deep, practical experience means I understand animal behavior, recognize when a pet needs space or comfort, and prioritize their safety above all else. What truly sets me apart is my ability to offer your pet my undivided attention and a calm, stable environment. Because I am retired, I do not have the distractions of a full-time job or a busy household. My day revolves around ensuring your pet feels safe, secure, and loved. I live in a highly walkable, vibrant neighborhood that is perfect for daily strolls. In my quiet townhome, your pet will enjoy a small and front yard, a large rooftop, a peaceful routine, and plenty of companionship so you may enjoy total peace of mind while you are away. Throughout the day, I am primarily based at home, allowing me to provide steady companionship, regular potty breaks, and a predictable routine. My schedule enables me to easily adapt to your pet's specific feeding, medication, and exercise habits. Whether it is a midday stroll (weather permitting) or quiet companionship while I read or run quick local errands, your pet will safely integrate into a calm, attentive, and structured environment. At my home, pets enjoy a small, grassy, fenced front yard for quick sniff breaks, plus a large rooftop terrace perfect for stretching legs and enjoying fresh air between morning and evening walks. Indoors, clean pets are fully welcomed on the furniture and beds—my home is their home! I love providing as much quality cuddle time as they will allow!
“Kelsey has been wonderful watching our toy poodle, Roman. She is incredibly sweet, responsive, and easy to communicate with, which gives us a lot of peace of mind when we’re away. Roman is always well cared for, and we really appreciate the attention and kindness she shows him. We’d definitely recommend Kelsey to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Bo had such a great time this week with Tyler and Jordan! They are both kind, knowledgeable, and very communicative. We are very particular when it comes to having others care for our pup but my husband and I both feel 100% comfortable having Bo stay with Tyler and Jordan. Highly highly recommend to anyone looking for quality care for their pups :)”
About: I have had pets my whole life. I love being around animals and caring for them. I currently own a Goldendoodle who is part of my family. Taking care of her has been such a joy. I work part time so I’m very much available for any of your pets’ needs. I have a daughter but she is in school so I am free during during the time she is at school. I am also free some evenings and weekends as well. As a pet owner myself, ensuring the wellbeing of your pet is my top priority. I will always make sure they’re more than good. Safety and play time is very important to me.
“Danielle is such a sweetheart! My pup can be very high energy but he adapted easily and she was considerate of any care instructions I recommended. When picking him up I could tell he was obsessed with her. Danielle provided detailed updates and photos and was extremely flexible with scheduling. Would highly recommend leaving your fur babies in Danielle’s care if you’re in the area!”

Upon your approval, there is fence dog park at my property available during play time.
“Thankful to book with Jiyoung for my puppy’s first time through Rover. She is very caring and communicated well. I love the peace of mind knowing my puppy is in great hands! I highly recommend booking with her & would only choose her for future needs!”
About: Hi! I’m a former special education teacher who has spent my career caring for others with patience, responsibility, and compassion. As a lifelong dog lover and proud Yorkie mom, I understand that pets are family. I have experience caring for small dogs, puppies, and senior dogs, including administering medications (insulin) and providing extra attention to pets with special needs. Whether your pup needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or a calm companion while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I’ll also send plenty of updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m home full-time, which means I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether your dog needs a walk, a drop-in visit, overnight care, or extra playtime, I’ll make sure they receive the love, exercise, and care they deserve. I’m available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have two friendly, vaccinated Yorkies who are used to being around other dogs, and I always introduce pets slowly to ensure everyone is comfortable. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and routines. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I have had my own pup since July 2020 & been able to care for friends and family’s pups for the past 5 years living in Dallas. I am completely flexible to your dogs needs and will be sure they get all the special love and attention while you are away. I live near many parks and even have my own private backyard! This makes your dogs stay extra special with easy accessibility to a potty and fresh air! I currently work in a hybrid role. This is very flexible and if I am dog-sitting I would be home instead of in the office I live in a one bedroom apartment that has a private backyard that is fenced around all sides. I also have a pup of my own! She is a friendly shitzu named Georgie and just turned 4 years old. The yard is easy access for quick potty breaks and access to the sidewalk for long walks.
“Edmanuel and the Pupkulture team are an absolute dream for any pet parent. Knowing that my dogs are receiving the same level of care, attention, and thoughtfulness that I would give them myself is incredibly valuable and gives me real peace of mind when I’m away. Everything they do clearly prioritizes the dogs’ safety and well-being. My dogs have definitely let me know in the past when they weren’t happy with a daycare option, but with Pupkulture, it’s the complete opposite. They get genuinely excited when we arrive, and they come home happily exhausted, sleeping better than ever. The team is also consistently responsive, provides thoughtful updates and photos, and brings a level of kindness and professionalism that truly sets them apart.”
“We had a fantastic experience with Loveneet! He was incredibly sweet, kind, and respectful, genuinely ensuring that Roo was well taken care of. Despite our last-minute request, he was more than accommodating and responsive. We appreciated the updates and photos throughout the night, as we’re quite attached to our pup. Roo is usually anxious and hesitant around men, but he absolutely loved Loveneet! We’ll definitely be booking with him again the next time we’re in town. Thank you so much, Loveneet! Highly recommend!”
“Very happy to have found such a nice person to take care of Calvin. This is my very first time using Rover and I’m so happy to have such a positive experience. Thank you Veronica!!”

I walk in my neighborhood every morning and evening and would love to walk with a friend. I don't currently have any pets of my own so there will be no issues with unfriendly competition. I know how important communication is regarding your pets.
“Barbara is amazing! She is sweet, very reliable, and great with communication. Kira is always excited to stay with her for doggy day care or when Barbara drops in to walk her.”
“Roy was such a delight! I needed a sitter last minute and he was happy to help! He’s really so sweet, and you can tell he loves dogs! His backyard was perfect for my Maya. Both of my pups came home and immediately passed out haha! I know they had a great time, and I will definitely be using Roy again in the future!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for friends and family during weekends and while they’ve been out of town. I’m excited to begin offering boarding in my home, where I provide a calm, clean environment and focus on one household’s pets at a time.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dallas Downtown
These are some of the best sitters anybody could ask for. They are extremely polite and professional and helped accommodate some very last-minute requests including stuff with a same-day notice. We could only hope to be thankful enough to have every sitter on this app be like them.
Jirah is amazing! I was so nervous about leaving my baby, Henny, but she immediately put my mind at ease. She communicates throughout the day, sends lots of photos, and is so gentle and caring with him. I know Henny is in great hands because he actually cried when it was time to leave. 😂 It's also a bonus that he's made a best friend in Gilly. Every time he comes home, he's completely worn out from a full day of playing and having fun. I can't recommend Jirah enough! Just don't book *all* of her availability because Henny would be very disappointed if he couldn't keep going back. 💛
Roy has been incredible! Pogo has hated every other daycare he's ever been to, so I was amazed when, on just the second day, he got excited as soon as we pulled up to Roy's house. Since then, he's been happy to go every day. Roy sends several photos throughout the day, which gives me peace of mind, and he's been super flexible with scheduling and timing. It's clear he truly cares about the dogs he watches. I've already scheduled Pogo to go every Monday through Friday. I can't recommend Roy highly enough!
Brent and Justin are always so great! Westley took a little time to adjust to going to daycare but they always made me feel confident that he was doing well and being taken care of. I love all the pictures I get throughout the day and Westley comes home happy and tired from playing!
Kelsey has been wonderful watching our toy poodle, Roman. She is incredibly sweet, responsive, and easy to communicate with, which gives us a lot of peace of mind when we’re away. Roman is always well cared for, and we really appreciate the attention and kindness she shows him. We’d definitely recommend Kelsey to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
I had an excellent experience with Taylor! He was flexible with my schedule, communicated promptly, and made sure to send updates with photos throughout the day. My dog can be hesitant and fearful, but Taylor (and his dog, Cooper) were patient and understanding. I had full confidence that my dog was in good hands and I plan to use Taylor in the near future!
We had a great experience with Julia! She was able to take Miles last minute for day care and was incredibly accommodating and responsive throughout the entire process. When we picked him up, he was very calm and it was easy to tell he felt comfortable and well cared for. We really appreciate Julia’s flexibility and would absolutely trust her with Miles again!
What a lifesaver! Danielle swooped in and saved the day for me when I had the most last minute request for a day trip I made to Dallas. She was quick to respond, super friendly, and more than accommodating. She was so good with my girl Winnie and I will definitely use her again if I am back in Dallas and need a sitter. Danielle you are… *chef’s kiss* fantastic! 😊
Dylan is hands down the best sitter we have ever used!! This week he was sitting for our pup during the day and when we missed our flight late at night, Dylan didn’t hesitate to let our pup stay with him overnight and even went to our apartment to grab her food to make sure she had it in the morning :). The best part was I had no doubt he would do all of that! We felt so bad with a last minute change of plans and he could not have been nicer about everything and made us feel so calm during a stressful night. He continued to send updates and took the best care of our sweet girl. I can’t recommend him enough and he deserves 1000 stars!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Dallas Downtown
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Dallas Downtown on Rover is $32.1 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Dallas Downtown 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 3,228 sitters in Dallas Downtown, 90% respond to messages in under an hour.

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.
