“Sabrina did a great job taking care of Prince. Everything went smoothly, and my dog was well looked after and comfortable. Communication was clear, and I appreciated knowing my dog was in good hands. I’d definitely be happy to use her again and would recommend Sabrina to others!”
“My fur babies had a great time with Carly. She took great care of them and sent me updates throughout the day. She also made sure to slowly introduce my dogs to her dog so that there would be no issues. I would definitely recommend her as a dog sitter!”
About: I have taken care of horses, cats, dogs, chickens and many other animals over the last several years. I love animals more than people (most of the time 😉) and am very reliable. I work from home, so I’m able to watch your fur babies all day and ensure they have potty breaks, and get all the love the need. I do my very best to make sure your fur baby is as comfortable as when you’re there. If they’re in my home, or I do home visits, I will ensure that the same training is maintained.
“Thank you, Jennifer, for taking great care of our Bailey. She's always such a nervous one, but it's comforting to know she can relax and play with you, just as if she were at home. Having a home-away-from-home for her is such a blessing and relief, especially when we have to leave her for extended periods of time.”
“Jorge was very informative and kept me updated throughout the day with my dog Ash, which really made me feel comfortable! You can tell he genuinely cares about animals. I would definitely recommend him if you’re looking for someone to watch your dog.”
“Hector was phenomenal in caring for our very large baby, who gets anxious when first departing from us. She was wonderfully cared for and it was incredibly easy to get in and out for drop off and pick up.”
“Candance is amazing! Very accommodating, responses quickly, explains questions & my favorite is she updates you with photos and videos. Rhett Butler had a super fun filled day of playing with her pup! Will book again! High recommended!”
“First time taking Ryder for daycare here. I can tell he had fun from the updates we received, and hes tired now. Haha. We will definitely use them again.”
“She took such good care of my puppy! I’m so glad he got to play with all her dogs while I was away. Would definitely book with her again in the future 😊”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for many years, including dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routine, providing exercise, feeding on schedule, administering basic medications when needed, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I work from home full-time, so have plenty of time to attend to your pup! Our work schedules are very flexible so will always be available for potty breaks, quick outdoor walks and play time. I have a fenced yard for potty breaks and one friendly dog. (I can separate if needed) I can also crate your dog if requested or needed.
About: About Me: I'm a veteran, wife, student, mother of 3 kids: 13, 7, and 2 years old. I am currently in my virtual graduate program (Master’s of Social Work) so I spend a lot of time at home. I've grown up with dogs in my family and have been around dogs all my life, so loving fur babies comes easy. I've been dog sitting for close friends and family for years. I have experience with easy going to temperamental type of dogs, small and larger size dogs, newborn puppies to senior dogs, etc. Our Pup: Dachshund male: Ollie (3 years old). He is playful and friendly. He gets a long with most dogs that have the same temperament as him. He loves company and to just hang out, lay around, etc. He is fixed and up to date on shots. Our Home: We live in a house with a nice fenced in yard. We have extra kennel for pups who are kennel trained and loads of toys and treats on hand. Our family and our pup Ollie are friendly and welcoming. We are looking forward to meeting you and your sweet pup(s)! My Schedule: I am available to care for your pet(s) every day of the week with exception of when I am away for any appointments or quick errands. If I need to step out, your pet will be kenneled for their own safety. Other than that, I am home when I am caring for your pet with my family. Rest assured that they will be loved and played with while they are visiting our home. During your pet(s) stay: - Potty breaks every 0-2 hours - Playtime is continuous - Walk(s) 1 - 2 times a day (depending on stay and of course weather permitting) - Feeding according to your feeding schedule - Bedtime 8-9pm - Kenneled upon request or if not home for their own safety - Administering of medications if needed - Bathing if necessary (accidents happen!) - Love, patience, cuddles We live in a quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors. We can always find another neighbor walking with their dogs. Our home is spacious with a decent sized fenced backyard. Enough space for all the zoomies! Dogs are welcome to lounge anywhere, couches and even oversized beanbag. They will be shown love and patience while in our home.
“The pups always have such an amazing time at Lauren’s! They love playing with the kiddos and pups. She gave me updates on them throughout the day which I was so thankful For. Thank you so much!”
“1st time user here. Steph responded quickly to my last minute request for daycare for the afternoon. I’m so thankful b/c I was able to spend time with my daughter at Lackland AFB, where I couldn’t take Noob. It was a great stay for him though, and he looked like he had fun playing in the water trough. He was zonked out the rest of the night, so it must’ve been a great time. Can’t wait to use this app/service again! I think him and I are both looking forward to it b/c it was such a positive experience. Thanks Steph!!”
“Fernando was a life saver! I had an emergency where I had to book few hours before, he was available to take care of my Benito and Camila! He sent lots of update of them having fun with him and lots of cuddles! Fernando is very caring and I could truly see that he cared for them like if they were their own!! Thank you Fernando for saving my day!!! I recommend him!!”
About: I’m a proud pet parent of three fur babies and lifelong animal lover. As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust. Whether you’re heading out of town, working long hours, or just need an extra hand, I’m here to provide loving, reliable care and plenty of attention for your pet. I have experience caring for companions of all ages, from energetic puppies who love to play to senior dogs who appreciate a slower pace and extra comfort. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities so they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Your pet will be treated like family in my care. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your best friend is in good hands. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, playtime, cuddles, or medication administration, I’m committed to making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet and become someone you can count on whenever you need a helping hand. I can’t wait to make some new furry friends! As a dog owner myself, caring for pets is already part of my daily life. Pet sitting naturally fits into my routine because I’m used to feeding schedules, walks, administering basic care, and making sure animals feel safe and comfortable. Pet sitting fits naturally into my weekly routine because I’m organized, dependable, and able to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or a client’s home, my focus is on providing a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience while maintaining the routines they’re familiar with. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, potty breaks, and any special care requirements. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and preferences so they feel secure and well cared for while their family is away. I also prioritize communication by providing regular updates, photos, and prompt responses so owners always know how their pet is doing. I understand that trusting someone with a beloved pet can be difficult, so I strive to give owners peace of mind through reliability, attention to detail, and compassionate care. My goal is for both pets and their owners to feel comfortable, confident, and supported throughout the entire experience.
About: Hi! I’m Fernanda. I care for a maximum of two dogs per day to give each one my full attention and love. I spend 24 hours a day with them (yes, 24!) and take them to different parks so they can explore, sniff around, and have fun. Their walk schedule is pretty active: 5am, 10pm, 3pm, 7pm, and 11:30pm — because there's never a dull moment here! I also send two photos and one video daily, so you can feel at ease seeing how happy and comfortable your pup is. Is your dog shy or needs their own space? No problem! I can keep them separated from my own dogs. If they have trouble sleeping alone, I’ll stay close so they feel safe. They’re welcome on the couch, on the bed, and of course, they’ll receive all the love, patience, and cuddles they need to feel at home. Important: I speak only Spanish, but my husband speaks both Spanish and English — so if you need to communicate in English, we’ve got you covered! I provide 24/7 care for your dog, with daily walks to parks, regular updates, and lots of love and attention in a safe, homely environment. In my home, your dog will enjoy a safe, calm environment with plenty of space to play. I provide 24/7 supervision, daily walks, and constant updates.
“Very nice and professional she was also her house was clean and safe. My dog was well taken care of and she sent photos and replied immediately when I texted her about Gizmo. He will be back!”

Jennifer has so much experience and knowledge with dogs. My 60 lb mutt (Pitty/Australian Cattle Dog, Great Pyrenees, etc.) is a recent rescue. He has seperation anxiety and needs to learn that people can be kind and fun. Jennifer helped him get used to her and her home in the mornig, and by the afternoon he was giving her kisses - high praise indeed!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Helotes on Rover is $27.75 per day (as of September 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 Helotes 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 1,036 sitters in Helotes, 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 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.
