“Wonderful and patient. Frankie had a great time. Thank you being able to watch Frankie last minute. Would definitely use her services again and recommend to others. Frankie was so happy and she updated me often which I appreciated!”
“Absolutely AMAZING! My dog literally jumps out the car when I drop him off to Jamie's. He loves being there and she always keeps me updated throughout the day with lots of pics and videos. She truly has a care and love for animals and it definitely shows. Will primarily only be using her from now one! Absolutely GREAT!!!!!”
“From our meet-and-greet to the first actual stay, my dog *loved* being at Jason's! He and his wife are kind, love dogs, have a great house setup for doggy day care. My dog can be anxious in new settings, especially if I leave him, but he did great! As Jason said, "couldn't have gone better." I am SO grateful to have found him and will definitely be using their services a lot in the future. I'd give them 10 stars if I could ;)”
“Me and Niko have had a wonderful experience this week and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. They took amazing care of my puppy Niko and gave me peace of mind while I was away. Communication was great on the days he stayed with updates and photos that made me feel reassured and connected. It was obvious Niko was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I really appreciated the attention, kindness, and care they showed, and I would definitely book with them again in the future!”
About: I cared for my senior dog while alive and volunteered at a shelter, playing with dogs, maintaining feeding schedules, and returning them to kennels timely. I currently have an open schedule, as I recently graduated from High School. I am able to accommodate all feeding/exercise routines. I can be available for your pet 24 hours a day. Pets are allowed to free roam inside and out as needed. I can also crate you pet as requested. My backyard is fenced for protection. There is a nearby park for frequent walks.
“Leaving my dogs with someone else for the first time felt a lot like dropping your child off at school for the first day — I was nervous and hesitant about using Rover at first. But after an unexpected situation came up, I’m so grateful we found Van and her family. For three days, they took such amazing care of my dogs. I provided their food, and Van and her family made sure they were fed, able to play outside in the yard, and got plenty of rest and love. The updates, pictures, and videos throughout the stay gave me so much peace of mind and made my days at work so much easier knowing my babies were happy and comfortable. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be reaching out to them again for future doggy daycare or boarding needs. Thank you again, Van and family, for treating my dogs like your own!”
“Deneisha is an angel! She accepted my last minute request for a sitter, and i am truly grateful for her kindness in doing so! She was very kind, and sent updates throughout the day. I was unsure of how my mini would handle playing with her dog only because he hadn't been around a lot of big dogs before, but by the video she sent, he had a blast! I feel He really enjoyed his time with Deneisha, and i would certainly book again! Thank you again, Deneisha! 🤎”
“Migdalia has great communication in the app and sent several photos. She did a good job making sure our dog was introduced to her first, then explore the house, then meet the other dogs last. She gave us a debrief on how he did when we picked him up. We plan to use her again.”

“Jane is always on time abs helps me with my busy schedule. She give lots of love and attention to my puppy. She walks him and helps with his potty training. I never wonder what he is doing as Jane send me updates frequently! He loves going to see Jane!”
About: Hey, I’m Chelsey! I’ve always been a lover of animals. I volunteered at an animal adoption sanctuary several times during the week to help socialize dozens of puppies & kittens as well as senior dogs & cats to get them ready for adoption. It’s bittersweet investing time into the younger ones & saying “goodbye” as they go into their new homes but I wouldn’t trade it for the world! I work in administration for Elementary Education & my life is quite hectic! However, I am most available after 4pm M-F & all day Saturday & after 1pm Sundays. As mentioned, I volunteered at an animal adoption sanctuary that was run out of the founder’s lovely home. I have bottle fed & rocked to sleep kittens that were small enough to fit into the palm of my hand & maintained their feeding schedule. I’ve also periodically helped injured dogs and taken them to vet appointments when needed! Now, I have a cozy apart in East Garland that is my safe place & it would be a safe place for your pet too!
“Stephanie is very caring and attentive, I appreciated the communication and photos she provided while watching over my dog after her spay surgery. My dog was immediately comfortable with Stephanie, and that's rare. Will definitely be using her services again.”
About: From a tender age of 5, my journey of caring for pets began with cats, fostering a deep-seated love and understanding for our feline friends. This early start has equipped me with the unique ability to tune into the subtle nuances of pet behavior, ensuring their needs are not just met, but anticipated. My passion didn't stop at cats; it naturally expanded to include dogs, where I've honed my skills further, especially in training puppies. My approach is built on patience, positive reinforcement, and a keen sense of each pet's individual needs and personality. I don't just watch over your pets; I engage with them, dedicating time to play, cuddle, and ensure they feel loved and secure in your absence. My commitment is to provide a safe, nurturing environment where your pets receive the care they deserve and the love they crave, just as I do for my beloved dog, Baba. Working full-time from home offers me the unique advantage of seamlessly integrating pet care into my daily schedule. This setup allows me to be present and attentive to the needs of the pets I care for throughout the day. Whether it's timely meals, regular playtimes, or frequent potty breaks, I'm able to provide immediate and constant care without disrupting my work responsibilities. My flexible schedule means I can adjust my work around the pet's routine, ensuring they receive ample attention, exercise, and love. This arrangement is ideal for puppies who require more frequent attention and for cats who enjoy the reassurance of a constant companion. My commitment to the well-being of the pets in my care is unwavering, and my home office setup ensures they're always a priority. In my home: My approach to pet care in my home is centered around providing a safe, secure, and loving environment. With a securely fenced yard, pets under my care enjoy ample outdoor time for play and exercise, always under my watchful eye to ensure their safety. My 2-year-old male dog adds a friendly and playful companion for visiting pets, fostering socialization and fun interaction under careful supervision to ensure compatibility and safety. Inside, my home is pet-proofed and equipped with comfortable resting areas, ensuring a cozy and safe space for pets to relax and feel at home. I tailor activities and care to each pet's individual needs, preferences, and routines, ensuring a personalized care experience that meets your pet’s specific requirements. In my client's home: When caring for pets in my client's home, my focus is on maintaining the pet’s routine in their familiar environment, minimizing stress and providing continuity of care. This includes feeding, walking, playtime, and any medication administration according to their normal schedule. I ensure the home remains secure, respecting my client's privacy while providing their pets with the highest level of care and attention. Regular updates and photos keep pet owners informed and reassured of their pet's well-being. My experience and attentiveness to detail mean pets receive compassionate care tailored to their needs, whether I'm providing companionship in their home or mine.
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Han sent me daily photos and updates, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Benji looked so happy and relaxed in every shot. He got along wonderfully with the other dogs, and it was clear he was being lovingly cared for. I’m incredibly grateful—thank you for making his stay so enjoyable!”

About: I was raised on a farm with lots of different animals, and I always become so attached to all of them. Bijeaux (Bee-Joe) is my fur-lady that keeps me company as my life is now in the city. Let me know about your pet's exercise/activity routines and what motivates them. I'm a work from home dog dad. Let me know your pet's routine as I believe keeping routines are critical for pet care outside their own home. I have a fenced yard for your kid(s) to play in or parks near by to go run in. Your pet must be house trained, and sleep on their own in their bed or in a kennel.
About: Over 15 years in pet care and 10 years training dogs. I've encountered, worked with and formed lasting relationships with every type of breed, temperament and character of dog there is. I genuinely love dogs and have the experience and knowledge needed to give your dog or puppy the most comfortable stay possible. I'm available 24/7, always home. Pet care is my daily routine. Dogs are my life for over 15 years now. So it's just another good day to me. I have a big back yard with a secure 10 foot fence, one of my dogs likes making new friends if yours is social. 24/7 care, I'm always 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 Garland 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 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 .
