“This was our first time doing daycare in a home so we were a little nervous, but Jordyn was wonderful and made us and our fur baby feel very comfortable! Jordyn shared pictures throughout the day and kept us updated on how our pup was doing. She also is highly responsive which is awesome. We will definitely be booking again!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is truly my passion. I have been actively involved in the rescue community for over 10 years and have extensive experience working with animals of all ages, personalities, and needs. I hold a degree in Animal Science and have gained hands-on experience working at a local animal shelter as well as as a pet care technician in a pet store. These experiences have given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and proper care. I am able to care for cats and am very knowledgeable about their unique needs and personalities. I am also able to board dogs, provided they are friendly with cats and children. Since I work from home full-time, your pets will receive plenty of supervision, attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, medication administration, or simply a calm and loving environment, I am committed to providing the same level of care and compassion that I would give my own animals. My goal is to ensure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and at ease while you’re apart. I work from home full time so I will be on YOUR pets schedule. I do have small children but they have been taught how to be around animals appropriately. They love to play with the animals but will never be unattended with them. I will provide whatever needs YOUR pet needs. They are all different and have different needs and schedules. I allow free roaming. Pets on furniture. Pets sleeping in the bed. Whatever your baby is most comfortable with is what they will get here.
About: I have been a dog owner for 28 years. I have a 9 year old who has the biggest heart for animals. We dog sit regularly and have been for the past 7 years. We will accommodate however and whatever you and your pup need. We regularly dog sit rescues, so we are used to “imperfect” and “hard to manage”. They tend to be our biggest love bugs. We also have experience in multiple dog stays (from the same home - not unknown dogs together), elderly dogs or dogs that require medical needs from us during their stay. Such as shots, medication, etc… We love to go on adventures and play outside. I send daily pictures and updates. You can trust me when I say your dog will be oh so loved. A home away from home. Let us be your best friends, new best friend! I work remote and am home most days! Especially if we are watching a pup. It’s summer time so the kids are home as well! I do not watch any other animal they are not used to, at the same time. We want them safe and comfortable in our home. We are a dog loving family. Between our 9 and 11 year old, the dogs will get out so much energy out and receive so much love!
About: i stay at home, so i have all the time and attention to give your fur babies! I love all animals and have a yorkie. I can work and take care any day at any time for boarding. I am a stay at home mom in katy with an infant. I will feed and water, and take for walks i will also send updates with pictures and videos as much as you want me too.
“Lexi is an excellent pup sitter in soooo many ways. We have just found out that we weren’t allowed to bring a dog into the Renaissance Fest while visiting for a couple days but I was so anxious about leave my Pebbles at our Airbnb by herself. I found Lexi at the last minute and she was super accommodating and responsive to our needs. My pup came back happy and exhausted and I could really tell she had lots of fun with her three bigger dogs from the pictures she sent. I wish she was our local neighbor that we could use her help regularly since she’s superrrr nice!”
About: My connection to pets began when I was a child. We had horses, dogs and birds on my father's farm. I really like taking care of animals. In my home, we have Bella who is a miniature Australian shepherd, she's three years old, and take her to the park to play frisbee every day. We also take her for many walks, because she is very energetic. We also have 2 cats, Caramel and Pipoca. Pipoca is a diabetic who needs insulin injections twice daily. They're brothers and they're the same age, six years old, they're really sweet. My day starts bright and early to feed my pets. I also give my cat, Pipoca, who needs insulin twice a day. Throughout the day, I am available to attend your pets needs. I am very flexible. Happy to do, drop-in visits at your home, take your pet to their Veterinarian appointment. Take short/long walks, even snuggling up for a movie, and give lots of attention.
“What a superb 1st Rocer!!experience!! The warmth !! The care!! The energy!! Rocky said all of this with his happy face!! Rocky knew he was leaving and reached out to Lana to say thank you! We already love you Lana! We will see you again!!hugs!!!”
About: I love the outdoors, cardio and playing with dogs. I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I am reliable and trust worthy. I have a pretty open schedule. Monday - Friday. I have flexible hrs. to work around most schedule needs you may have. I accept same day bookings I currently have a Great Pyrenees who is 7 years old. He weighs over 100 lbs. So I am capable of taking care of larger dogs.
“Wendy took such great care of Keeper! She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Keeper was well cared for and happy during his stay. Thank you so much for treating him like family. We will definitely be booking with you again in the future! 🐾”
“My dog thinks going to see Lori is like going on vacation. She loves the energy of the household and visiting with other dogs. I feel such gratitude that my dog is so well taken care of...she literally bolts out of the car to see Lori!”
“I was very pleased with Kristina and this visit she kept me informed throughout the entire process and sent videoed and pictures. Fitz looked extremely happy and he received a good report. I will definitely use her in the future. Thank you for everything especially accepting him at such a late notice.”
About: Before I had kids I was a dog sitter & dog walker. I miss it so much so decided since kids are older that I would get back into it! I have a 3 year old fixed male pit baby. We have had him since he was an 8 week old pup. He has finally reached the state of being a calm lazy adult! Lol! My boyfriend and I share a love for dogs and so do our 3 kids. :) I stay home while my kids are at school. So I’m available to give pups my full time & attention throughout the day. I’m up early to get my kids off to school & I am somewhat a night owl too! Your pups can make themselves RIGHT at home! My dog Samson loves all dogs (just not cats, squirrels or opossums lol) but if for some reason you baby is not a fan of him, we have no problem keeping them separate. I can crate Samson or our house is split and he can just hang in the back of the house with my kids :). We can take frequent walks & lounge on the couch for plenty of cuddles! We have a fully fenced yard. Majority of flooring in house is waterproof vinyl so pups can’t do any harm :)
About: Hi! My name is Kayla, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. I currently have four dogs of my own ranging from a Mini English Bulldog to a Great Dane, so I’m very comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I have experience with large breeds including Great Danes, Bullmastiffs, and Pit Bulls, as well as smaller breeds. I understand that every pet has different energy levels, routines, and needs. I currently offer drop-in visits and dog walking services. Whether your pet needs a potty break, exercise, playtime, fresh water, feeding, medication, or simply some extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to help. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make each visit a positive and stress-free experience. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and finding the best fit for their needs! My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide drop-in visits and dog walking throughout the week. I currently work part-time in the beauty industry, which gives me availability during the day for potty breaks, walks, feeding visits, and check-ins. I understand how important consistency is for pets and will always communicate clearly and provide updates during every visit. I currently offer care exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can remain comfortable in their own environment and routine. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, and household routines. My goal is to provide dependable care while making your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
“Heather is kind and attentive. Communication is great, love the daily pics she sends, gives me peace of mind that they are happy and taken care of. Highly recommend ❤️❤️❤️”
About: I have been caring for animals all my life, and consider myself a true animal lover. I have cared for many dogs and pets for my neighbors and friends and they have relied on me to provide them with a comfortable and loving environment. I delight myself in providing great service and lots of love to your fur babies. I work from home so I am available to watch your babies through the day and make sure that they are well cared for, and given the attention they need to feel comfortable while you are away. We have a gated property where your pups can run around and let off some energy, and inside we have a perfectly conditioned "pup spa room" where they can relax and enjoy their rest, complete with kennels if you need them to be kenneled for naps if they need them. If not , there are plenty of blankets and pillows for them to relax and unwind.
“Ollie loves going to Lana!s house! She gets so excited to see Lana and to play with doggy friends. Lana takes very good care of Ollie and always gives me an update on the visit plus pictures of Ollie's day.”
About: Hi there! I’m Kaleigh, a lifelong animal lover with 20 of experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I’m also a nurse—which means safety, attentiveness, and calm under pressure are second nature to me. I’ve rescued all of my pets literally from the street, so helping them heal both physically and emotionally has taught me patience, empathy, and how to meet each animal where they are. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets in all stages of life—from bottle-feeding 3-week-old puppies to providing round-the-clock comfort and medication for beloved senior dogs in their final days. I’ve trained my own animals, managed special diets, and navigated unique quirks. My goal is to keep everyone happy, healthy, and stress-free💛 I love all the animals like my own because it is exactly how I would want my pets to be treated! I'm currently working as a registered nurse, but on my days off, I'm home with my three dogs and cat 🐾 My schedule fluctuates, so please get in touch about a plan, but I can also take same-day requests pending the day. If you’re looking for doggy daycare or overnight stays, my home features a large, fully fenced backyard with plenty of shade—perfect for safe play and fresh air. Dogs have access to indoor and outdoor spaces throughout the day and are never left alone for more than 2–3 hours at a time. I’m very mindful of weather conditions, so dogs are never left outside in the heat, but we do have a doggie pool and sprinklers if they like water play ☀️ My home is equipped with kennels, gates, cozy blankets, and a variety of toys to keep your pet comfortable and entertained. For drop-in visits, just let me know your pet’s preferences! I usually walk my dogs for at least 30 minutes daily, and I plan to give your furry friend the same care unless you specify otherwise. I’m also happy to feed and administer medications as needed. Feel free to reach out and share your pet’s needs—I’m happy to accommodate and provide the care your pet deserves!
“Alissa took great care of Shiner and sent picture and updates during his playdate. She was quick to respond to any questions. Shiner was worn out from playing all day. I highly recommend and will use her again.”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Karen
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Karen on Rover is $47.18 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click 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 Karen 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 1,195 sitters in Karen, 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.
