“Jeanne took excellent care of my pup. I’m pretty sure Cookie was disappointed I didn’t bring her the following day after I picked her up. I highly recommend Jeanne and will use her again in the future.”
“Mike was really great with our pup! Our 8-month-old is still getting used to going to daycare, but Mike was really patient with her. His dog is friendly and was a good playmate for our girl, and his house is kept clean. We got a lot of updates, pictures, and videos, which was appreciated! Will be rebooking in the future!”
“Brooke and Jeremy were amazing for doggy daycare. They were incredibly accommodating with my early work hours, which made everything so much easier for me. My pup tends to be pretty anxious, but they handled him with so much care and patience-it really gave me peace of mind. I truly appreciate the attention and effort they put into making him comfortable. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”
“Christian was great with Jax. He has a phenomenal knowledge of dogs and a great interaction skills set and demeanor with them. I will 100% be using Christian in the future for dog sitting and boarding.”
“Thank you again, Scott! I appreciate all the pictures. I am so glad that McClane and Miss Watson are able to settle down and relax with you while I am doing chores or running errands.”
“Absolutely Wonderful- I felt very comfortable leaving Cooper there for the day. I met Maria upon arrival, was introduced to her family and her dog. Maria was extremely nice/friendly. She sent me multiple photos after I left- letting me know he was doing well and was settling in. She was able to ease my dogs anxiety when I left by providing a loving environment and giving him a calming treat (provided by me-owner) I would definitely book with her again. Great experience!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - East Texas
I’ve been traveling to different states for work and we ended up in Allentown, PA. My dog, Coconut, was also diagnosed with IMHA which is a life threatening disease. So I’m very particular about who watches her during the day. I had reached out to a few people last minute and many of them couldn’t accommodate. That was definitely for the best though because during the meet and greet with Christian, I got the sense that not only is he an awesome guy to chat with, he cares deeply about each and every dog in his care. Besides that, he’s also got everything planned out and organized which made me feel more than comfortable leaving my sick girl in his care. I received pictures and videos throughout the day showing how Coconut was interacting with the other doggos. And then on pickup he explained how she would act toward him in ways that I’ve only ever seen or known her to act like with me. So that’s an immediate signal to me that he cares for Coconut just as much as I do, and that she’s receptive to it. Definitely became my #1 trusted pet care specialist in Allentown. And I’d recommend everyone to book with him
If I can give 100 stars I would. We found Emmanuel, last minute to watch our puppy. He kept in contact with us the entire time. He was very friendly and great with Charles. Probably better than a family member would watch over him. We will definitely use him again. 🙏

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in East Texas on Rover is $27.75 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 East Texas 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 PA 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 630 sitters in East Texas, 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.
