About: We wanna watch your sweet baby!!!!!! I love and understand dogs so that means I won’t derail your dog training. I trained my dog to be so polite that she now weaponizes it against me lol. I know how frustrating it is when you go out of town and come back to a slightly worse behaved dog so I will make sure to continue your typical rules while you’re gone. I also have a great backyard for them to go run around and play, your dog (and me) will have so much fun!!!! I only watch 1 dog at a time. I have a medium sized dog and her best friends are always tiny dogs. Your tiny dog will be the boss of my dog. I work from home, we go play dog soccer in the backyard multiple times a day. My dog like to chill in the yard and stare at birds, I mostly let them go out whenever they want Your dog will get physical AND mental stimulation! A tired dog is a good dog. They will get to go potty as many times a day as they want, as I work from home. I have a fenced yard, I have a crate if you choose that for your dog.

The constant updates with photos and videos made my day and gave me total peace of mind. I will definitely be using her services again and would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have cared for over five dogs of different sizes, breeds, and ages with my family. From playful puppies to sweet senior dogs, I understand how to adapt to each dog’s unique needs and personality. I love spending time playing, walking, and giving dogs the attention they deserve. Whether it’s belly rubs, outdoor play, or quiet company, I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and happy! Besides dogs, I love all animals! I have had bunnies and birds before and know how to take care of them! I work remotely full-time, which which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout their stay. My daily routine is flexible, so I’m able to accommodate feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, cuddle time, medication routines, and regular check-ins. I like to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they are used to at home. Whether they need active play, quiet company, extra patience, or a calm space to relax, I do my best to adjust my day around their comfort and needs! I live in a spacious apartment that offers plenty of room for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well supervised! I got my two friendly American Shorthair cats at home, so I’m very mindful about introductions, boundaries, and each pet’s comfort level. I always take time to understand how each pet does around other animals! If a pet needs their own space, quiet time, or a slower introduction, I make sure they have a calm area where they can relax. I keep the environment clean, organized, and peaceful so every pet feels cared for during their stay!

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I provide a safe, loving environment with a fully fenced backyard for supervised play and exercise. I follow each pet's routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and special care instructions. I treat every dog like family and provide regular photo updates so owners can feel confident and connected while they're away. Pet care fits well into my daily routine as I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home. I can provide regular attention, feeding, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening care, and I make sure pets are never left alone for long periods. At my home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment, providing attentive supervision, consistent care, and respectful handling to ensure pets feel comfortable and secure

“Kristen was incredibly communicative from the very beginning. She took the time to do a meet & greet the day before so Preta could get to know her and her family and have a chance to sniff around and become familiar with their home. On the day she watched Preta, she was very attentive, especially when my little girl was feeling anxious, and she shared photos and updates to reassure me that she was doing well. I truly appreciate Kristen’s care, patience, and willingness to follow all of my instructions. She was very thoughtful and attentive throughout the entire experience. I would absolutely trust Kristen with my baby again in the future. ❤️”

She had a small injury, and they made sure she was comfortable and well cared for throughout the day. They sent plenty of pictures, and it was clear how much they genuinely care about dogs. We had such a great experience that we booked with them again the very next day, and my dog’s excitement to return made it clear how much fun she had with them!”

About: Hi, I’m Ashley and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 14 years, starting with my two Maltipoos, whom I’ve had since high school. They’re now happily living with my parents, but caring for them from puppies through adulthood taught me a lot about providing consistent, loving care and understanding each dog’s individual personality and needs🐕❤️ Before joining Rover, I also fostered a 3–month-old puppy for two weeks, helping with his daily routine, care, and adjustment while finding him a loving forever home. I love spending time together and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their families are away. I am a housewife so I’ll be spending most of the day with your dogs. I also don’t have children or pets at home, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available throughout the day and can be flexible with different routines and schedules. I live in a secure apartment building with controlled access and security in the lobby. My balcony is always kept locked, so pets cannot access it. I’ll leave the house to run some errands for few hours, so if your dog uses a crate/kennel when left unattended, please provide one for the stay :)

“Yujie is an incredibly responsible dog sitter. He made sure to take time to meet Monty beforehand, which helped us confirm they were a great fit and left us with a good feeling. During the visit, he took wonderful care of Monty and sent us pictures throughout the day! Monty clearly loved being with him and is eager to visit again soon.”

He also provided us with a framed portrait of our dog at the end of the day, which was an awesome gesture. Would highly recommend David for doggy daycare or boarding!”

About: I love all animals. I am taking dogs or cats to stay overnight. I work from home and live in a house with a small fenced yard. I have a small cat that has grown up with a dog and a small puppy. I live in a nice neighborhood for dog walks and I do need the exercise myself. Just bring the toys and the crate, and the food and your dog will have a great stay with me! I can also take cats in if I have no other dogs. There might be 1 or 2 animals at a time in my house. Ask me any questions! I look forward to meeting your pet. I work full time at home from 8 am to 5 pm. I work Monday through Friday. I do not work on the weekends. Thanks! I have a fenced in yard. I do prefer that the dog stays in a crate overnight he can accommodate other arrangements on a case by case basis. I am currently working full time from home. I wake up around 7 am and go to bed between 11 and 12. I can take the dog out during lunch. I have a fenced in yard but do not leave animals alone outside. My house is pretty safe. I keep the animals in sight at all time but usually let cats roam friendly. Dogs stay downstairs.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Garfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 2,639 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Garfield. 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 Garfield 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.

As of November 2026, there are 2,639 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of TX. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 2,639 sitters in Garfield, 87% 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
