“Steph has done numerous drop ins for my dogs, but today she let my dogs and my foster do doggy day camp for the day at her beautiful place so that I could go and see my grandma one more time. My dogs are so tired and fulfilled! I will def be booking again when I need someone I know I can trust with my furbabies!”

“Becky did a great job! She quickly responded to our request, she was friendly and kind to interact with, and most importantly, our furry little guy was a happy camper when we picked him up. Will definitely be a repeat customer!”

“We are visiting the San Antonio area for the first time and left our 3 girls with Rose while we did some sight seeing. Everything went great! Rose's house is well set up to keep the dogs safe. She sent several pictures while we were out and clearly our girls were having a good time. We are planning on bringing them back one more time before we leave!”

“Just like last time, dogs loved their daycare with Abel and Alisa! One of them was shy at first but it's could tell she warmed up to them from the frequent updates they sent. The doggies enjoyed their enrichment like playing with the fetch machine and running in bubbles. Communication is great and I would recommend Abel and Alisa!”

“Bailey and Mia loves their stay with Rhoda and Erik. They even made a new friend! I truly appreciate the time they took to send pictures and updates on my babies. They made them both feel welcomed and comfortable.”

About: I have had dogs since I was a kid. It was always my responsibility to take care of them whether feeding, playing or walking.

When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, low-stress environment with a secure fenced yard and offer both kennel and free-roam options based on your pet’s comfort. I have a friendly 2.5-year-old Toy Aussie, so pets should be comfortable around other dogs.

“Asia was amazing with my dog. She made him feel so comfortable, welcomed, and loved. When she sent update pics during the day, I could see the smile on his face and how comfortable he was in her care. I’m really glad I chose Asia for my dog’s day care.”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs, and other family pets for many years and understand that every animal has unique needs and routines. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I have experience with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, walks, playtime, and caring for senior pets. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, daycare, and boarding with plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and companionship. Your pet won’t be left alone for periods and will receive regular supervision and interaction throughout the day. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, pet - friendly home with a secure fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and any special instructions you provide. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was around 8 years old. Traveled all around the US due to the military and cared for pets everywhere. It’s a passion of mine and I adore them! I currently am an Agreements Specialist and work from home. I love it, but I miss getting out and interacting so that’s why pet sitting/walking is so important to me. It gives the pet relief and some fun and it does the same for me. :) I have been doing this so long, and what it comes down to is respect. You want someone caring for your pets and your environment such as home apartment etc, as if it was your own. I try to make sure that’s what it’s about, mutual respect and trust.
“Beckie & Isabella watched Finn for the day to get him used to them before a boarding trip. She sent me several pictures throughout the day and assured me he was settling in. Very communicative and kept me up to date! All three of the fur babies will be staying with them again soon!”

“Amazing day care for my little golden retriever pup! She had a blast!! She was well looked after and I got frequent updates on her activities throughout the day! He accepted our last minute request which I am so grateful for! AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING dog sitter.”

Ideal for dogs who thrive on stability, consistency, and a peaceful setting. Dogs are cared for in a structured home environment with planned rest periods. Crates are used positively for meals, sleep, and safety when needed. Overnight Boarding Home boarding in a calm, structured environment. Dogs are not kept in playgroups and are encouraged to rest between short, managed outings. Capacity is intentionally limited. Pricing • Overnight boarding: $50 per night (2-night minimum) Pricing reflects limited capacity, full-time supervision, and a structured, low-stimulation environment. Calm Day Boarding Calm day boarding for dogs who already do well here or as an initial assessment before overnight stays. This service is not traditional daycare.

Rate: $45 for the full day Availability is intentionally limited to maintain a calm, controlled environment. Assessment Stays New dogs may be asked to start with a calm day boarding or a short overnight stay before longer bookings are accepted. I’m home full-time, which allows me to maintain consistent routines and provide hands-on supervision throughout the day. Pet care is fully integrated into my daily schedule, not something I fit in between other commitments. This allows for predictable routines, timely breaks, and a calm, well-managed environment. Safety and structure are a top priority in my home. I intentionally keep capacity very limited so that each dog receives individual attention and proper supervision. Dogs are never left unsupervised during interactions. Rest periods are built into the day, and dogs are rotated as needed to maintain a calm and controlled environment. Meals are served separately, and all dogs follow a predictable routine to reduce stress and overstimulation. My home is set up to support calm boarding, with designated rest areas and clear boundaries to ensure comfort and safety for everyone.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Dunlay
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 611 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Dunlay. 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 Dunlay 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 611 sitters in Dunlay, 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.
