“Emerald was great with Otto! She was able to help me out last minute when my other dog care fell through, and was very communicative and accommodating. She let me come over early with Otto and meet her sweet dogs and kiddo to make sure everyone got along ☺️ Otto came home happy—he was in good hands!”
“Edmanuel and the Pupkulture team are an absolute dream for any pet parent. Knowing that my dogs are receiving the same level of care, attention, and thoughtfulness that I would give them myself is incredibly valuable and gives me real peace of mind when I’m away. Everything they do clearly prioritizes the dogs’ safety and well-being. My dogs have definitely let me know in the past when they weren’t happy with a daycare option, but with Pupkulture, it’s the complete opposite. They get genuinely excited when we arrive, and they come home happily exhausted, sleeping better than ever. The team is also consistently responsive, provides thoughtful updates and photos, and brings a level of kindness and professionalism that truly sets them apart.”
“This was my first time booking with Megan, and she was absolutely wonderful. She took great care of Rocky and made me feel completely at ease. She kept me informed, and Rocky looked happy and relaxed the whole time. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Bo had such a great time this week with Tyler and Jordan! They are both kind, knowledgeable, and very communicative. We are very particular when it comes to having others care for our pup but my husband and I both feel 100% comfortable having Bo stay with Tyler and Jordan. Highly highly recommend to anyone looking for quality care for their pups :)”
About: I have had & dog sat multiple dogs of all sizes for my entire life in addition to regular foster & volunteer work! Helping animals is a passion of mine and I will make sure your baby gets the best care and attention while you're away. I've fostered multiple dogs with DAS and adopted my last foster, Josie (the first dog photographed). She is a 50lb ~2yr old pup that loves to play and will keep your dog occupied! Prepare to have storage on your phone, because you'll be getting lots of photos of our adventures. I typically always have someone home during the day and recently moved to a townhome with a yard for play space and easy potty breaks. I always walk my pups in the morning and evening with a mid-day potty break when necessary. Knowing how important routine is, let me know how YOU care for your dog so we can mimic the same routine to maximize their comfort! My dog, Josie, is in her crate when I am away and at night, but this is not a requirement for other dogs in our home!
“Thankful to book with Jiyoung for my puppy’s first time through Rover. She is very caring and communicated well. I love the peace of mind knowing my puppy is in great hands! I highly recommend booking with her & would only choose her for future needs!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love caring for them as if they were my own. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I am home full time, so I will be present with your pet all day! I am able to take them on long walks through the parks surrounding me and play with them at the dog park at my apartment building. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I treat every pet as if they were my own and take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special needs. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment, closely supervise pets during walks and playtime, and always make sure they have fresh water, meals, and plenty of love and attention.
“Shuai is absolutely amazing! His care for my fur baby gives me the time to focus on my in office days. Leaving her with anyone in general is always hard for me, but he makes it easy and anxiety free- knowing she’s in protective hands. He’s beyond responsive and reliable. Highly recommend.”
“Kelsey has been wonderful watching our toy poodle, Roman. She is incredibly sweet, responsive, and easy to communicate with, which gives us a lot of peace of mind when we’re away. Roman is always well cared for, and we really appreciate the attention and kindness she shows him. We’d definitely recommend Kelsey to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
About: I have had my own pup since July 2020 & been able to care for friends and family’s pups for the past 5 years living in Dallas. I am completely flexible to your dogs needs and will be sure they get all the special love and attention while you are away. I live near many parks and even have my own private backyard! This makes your dogs stay extra special with easy accessibility to a potty and fresh air! I currently work in a hybrid role. This is very flexible and if I am dog-sitting I would be home instead of in the office I live in a one bedroom apartment that has a private backyard that is fenced around all sides. I also have a pup of my own! She is a friendly shitzu named Georgie and just turned 4 years old. The yard is easy access for quick potty breaks and access to the sidewalk for long walks.
About: I can’t wait to spend time with your fur babies! I love animals and will always get a bunch of cute photos for you during my time with them. Running is an additional option if you specify in the request. Pet brushing and pet vacuuming available on request. I love all animals and will care for them like they’re my own. I have experience with special need animals, animals from traumatic situations who may need special care, as well as medically complicated. I work fully remote and take frequent breaks to walk throughout the day and play/snuggle breaks! My schedule is pretty flexible and there is lots of room for them. My house has lots of room for animals and I’m in a great neighborhood for walks. I have lots of toys and activities for cats and dogs
“Mandee is a very friendly, attentive communicative dogsitter. I had tons of anxiety and so did my newly adopted shelter dog but Mandee immediately put BOTH of us at ease. When I picked up my dog she was having a great time outside and was in high spirits. Definitely hoping to reserve spots going forward. I highly recommend !”
“Je Yeon stepped in at the last minute when we had another sitter cancel—very grateful! Great communication, easy drop off/pickup, and got updates throughout the evening. Would recommend.”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong passion and experience with dogs. I started training and caring for dogs when I was just 10 years old and turned that love into a business at 16 by running a successful dog-walking service. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, always providing the utmost care and attention to their unique needs. From understanding the playful energy of puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs, I have the skills and experience to ensure every pupper feels loved, safe, and happy. Whether it’s training basic commands, keeping up with a high-energy pup, or offering extra TLC, I’m here to give your dog the best care possible! Pet care is my full-time focus, and I work from home, allowing me to dedicate 110% of my time and attention to the dogs I care for. My flexible schedule ensures that their needs—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just companionship—are always my top priority throughout the day. Because I’m home, I can provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, and plenty of love and engagement. This also allows me to adjust easily to your dog’s routine, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for as if they were at home with you. Safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s home. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I ensure the space is clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards like small objects or toxic plants. I provide plenty of comfy areas for rest and have secure outdoor spaces for safe playtime. I closely supervise pets during activities and always make sure they feel at ease in a calm, welcoming environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the utmost respect. I follow the pet’s usual routine to maintain consistency and reduce any stress they might feel while their owners are away. I also stay vigilant about locking doors, securing gates, and keeping the pet safe during walks or outdoor time. In either case, I make communication a priority, providing regular updates, photos, and videos to reassure owners that their furry family member is happy and well cared for.
About: I take care of my friends dogs all the time! She had two medium size dog and one small Yorkie. I also have my own baby who is a small medium size dog. I've also recently pet sat for a 1 year old Doodle. I work from home so I'll be at the house all day. I take dogs out one at a time to go potty outside. We have multiple lawns that your baby can sniff I make sure the dogs go outside at least 4-5 times a day in the morning, afternoon, evening, and one more outside time before bed. I also do one long walk in the evenings when it's cooler outside.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Highland Park
Kelsey has been wonderful watching our toy poodle, Roman. She is incredibly sweet, responsive, and easy to communicate with, which gives us a lot of peace of mind when we’re away. Roman is always well cared for, and we really appreciate the attention and kindness she shows him. We’d definitely recommend Kelsey to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
I had an excellent experience with Taylor! He was flexible with my schedule, communicated promptly, and made sure to send updates with photos throughout the day. My dog can be hesitant and fearful, but Taylor (and his dog, Cooper) were patient and understanding. I had full confidence that my dog was in good hands and I plan to use Taylor in the near future!
This was my first time booking with Megan, and she was absolutely wonderful. She took great care of Rocky and made me feel completely at ease. She kept me informed, and Rocky looked happy and relaxed the whole time. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I’ll definitely book with her again!
We had a great experience with Julia! She was able to take Miles last minute for day care and was incredibly accommodating and responsive throughout the entire process. When we picked him up, he was very calm and it was easy to tell he felt comfortable and well cared for. We really appreciate Julia’s flexibility and would absolutely trust her with Miles again!
Kim = GEM. Our prior sitter is moving out of state and I was REALLY stressed about having to find someone new that met my standards (which is a LOT). We found Kim. I have a humongous weight off my shoulders. She is incredibly friendly, detailed and thorough and the level of attention she pays towards her dog-sitting role is 10/10!
Dylan is hands down the best sitter we have ever used!! This week he was sitting for our pup during the day and when we missed our flight late at night, Dylan didn’t hesitate to let our pup stay with him overnight and even went to our apartment to grab her food to make sure she had it in the morning :). The best part was I had no doubt he would do all of that! We felt so bad with a last minute change of plans and he could not have been nicer about everything and made us feel so calm during a stressful night. He continued to send updates and took the best care of our sweet girl. I can’t recommend him enough and he deserves 1000 stars!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Highland Park on Rover is $43.29 per day (as of July 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 Highland Park 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.

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.
