About: I have been a dog and cat owner my whole life. Now that I am mostly retired I am available to care for your babes when you are unable to. Your place or mine. I volunteer for dog and cat rescues so I have a lot of knowledge and experience. I am retired so I have lots of time to play. 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.

About: I provide a boutique, home style boarding experience in my 1,800 sq ft home with a fenced yard and only host max 2 dogs at a time for personalized care. I’ve been caring for pets for over 20 years and treat every dog like family. I work from home, so your pup has company and supervision for most of the day. With your approval, I love adding fresh homemade toppers like chicken, egg and salmon to their regular meals. I also enjoy taking photos, so you may receive some adorable updates throughout their stay! I only care for a maximum of 2 dogs at a time to make sure every pup gets plenty of attention and care. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so your pup will have plenty of companionship throughout the day. I take the dogs out for potty breaks 4–5 times a day and love longer walks early in the morning or evening when it’s cooler. On weekends, if the weather is nice, I sometimes take them to nearby trails or White Rock Lake. I live in a spacious 4 story home with a fenced yard and private rooftop, giving dogs plenty of safe space to play, relax, and feel at home. I love spoiling my furry guests with filtered water and homemade, human grade toppers and treats, with your approval and based on any dietary needs or allergies. They’re welcome on the couch, and I have plenty of comfortable areas/dog beds throughout the house for them to lounge and nap. They’re treated like part of the family here, with lots of love, attention, and cozy spaces to enjoy.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong passion and experience with dogs, I’m also Autistic so an expert in my craft. I started training and caring for dogs when I was just 10 years old and turned that love into a business at 16 by running a successful dog-walking service. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, always providing the utmost care and attention to their unique needs. From understanding the playful energy of puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs, I have the skills and experience to ensure every pupper feels loved, safe, and happy. Whether it’s training basic commands, keeping up with a high-energy pup, or offering extra TLC, I’m here to give your dog the best care possible! Pet care is my full-time focus, and I work from home, allowing me to dedicate 110% of my time and attention to the dogs I care for. My flexible schedule ensures that their needs—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just companionship—are always my top priority throughout the day. Because I’m home, I can provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, and plenty of love and engagement. This also allows me to adjust easily to your dog’s routine, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for as if they were at home with you. Safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I ensure the space is clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards like small objects or toxic plants. I provide plenty of comfy areas for rest and have secure outdoor spaces for safe playtime. I closely supervise pets during activities and always make sure they feel at ease in a calm, welcoming environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the utmost respect. I follow the pet’s usual routine to maintain consistency and reduce any stress they might feel while their owners are away. I also stay vigilant about locking doors, securing gates, and keeping the pet safe during walks or outdoor time. In either case, I make communication a priority, providing regular updates, photos, and videos to reassure owners that their furry family member is happy and well cared for.

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!

About: We love our sweet Cockapoo who loves all other dogs! She is 2 years old as of July 2025 so she has all the puppy energy and loves friends. I love to take her to our apartment dog park and walk her on the Katy Trail. Aside from my fur child, I work from home, so I have very flexible schedules and plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! We trained our Cockapoo ourselves (potty train, basic commands, leash and crate trained). I work from home so I am always home with our fur baby. My schedule is incredibly flexible and we love to be active and outside Our fur baby is our child. We give her all the cuddles and love she could want! I love other dogs and love to watch her fur friends from our apartment complex dog park so she has friends to play with during the day. Our Cockapoo is great with other dogs, is not aggressive, and loves to play and cuddle with her friends. I guarantee your fur child will be as well taken care of as our baby is!

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.

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.

About: Hi! 🐾 I’ve been working with dogs since i was young and absolutely love caring for pups of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. If used to rescue animals and find them good homes, sometimes If i see a pup I still will but I do have 2 dogs of my own and a turtle that I rescued and love them very much. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, playtime, or some extra love while you’re away, I’d be happy to help! 🐶❤️ I have switched jobs to being an independent contractor in real estate so most of my work can/will be done from home. My office is only 10mins away if i do leave and decide i need to come back home! I live in a apartment with a relatively large amount of space so your babies will not be in a confined area. I also have large windows so your pup will always be entertained in addition to playing with my dogs.

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.

About: As a stay-at-home mom and lifelong animal lover, caring for pets has always been second nature to me. With four pets of my own — including dogs and cats- I create a home environment built on love, consistency, and attentive care. Your pet stays in a spacious 1,200 sq ft home with a private fenced in yard outside the property designed for comfort, enrichment, and room to roam. Your pets in-home experience offers expansive indoor living areas, supervised outdoor time, and a calm multi-pet household that supports healthy socialization. With this being my focus, I am home throughout the day, providing consistent supervision, structured play, and personalized attention — not just scheduled check-ins. In addition to boarding, I offer bathing and additional supportive services to ensure your baby returns home happy, clean, and exceptionally cared for. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day, allowing for hands-on, consistent care for every pet. Each day is structured around comfort, enrichment, and individualized attention. My daughter is in a few extracurricular activities, but they only take around three hours in the evenings 4-7pm so I have plenty of time to care for your babies. Typically while my daughter is at cheer, gymnastics/tumbling and girlscouts I take that time to walk the dogs as it’s later in the day and cooler. I provide full-time, hands-on care in a calm, social household where all pets are well-socialized with children, dogs, and cats, helping visiting animals feel safe, comfortable, and engaged. Your pet can expect a full day of attentive care, including structured feeding, fresh water, indoor enrichment, and supervised outdoor play in a secure fenced backyard. Dogs enjoy active playtime and socialization with my friendly household dogs, while cats receive sunbathing, interactive play, and quiet comfort. Every pet benefits from one-on-one attention, consistent supervision, and social interaction. I also offer safe transportation in my three-row seated car if needed. With years of experience caring for pets of all ages, I ensure every animal feels loved, secure, and fully cared for in my home.

We recently moved to Dallas from Austin, and I’ve spent the last month trying to find a sitter I truly felt comfortable with. After three Rover attempts that just weren’t the right fit, I finally found Karen…and I’m SO grateful I did! 🥹❤️ Her home setup is adorable, she has such a genuine/down to earth personality, and most importantly, she understood immediately that Biggie is basically my son 😂🐾 She was so sweet with him and really took the time to understand his personality and unique needs. At the end of the day, I was just looking for an honest, good person who I could trust with Biggie. Karen is absolutely that, AND she’s wonderful with dogs. Biggie came home happy, and I felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care. I already booked another daycare day with her next week, and for the first time since moving to Dallas, I finally feel comfortable boarding Biggie when we leave town for a few days. So happy we found her! ❤️🐶

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!

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 September 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 .

As of September 2026, there are 3,209 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Dallas Downtown. 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 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 3,209 sitters in Dallas Downtown, 90% 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.
