“As a travel nurse it is important that I provide safety, socialization and love to my fur baby. Megan is absolutely incredible.Dog care is equally important as child care and not anyone can do it. Megan is extremely aware of behavior cues and runs a safe, loving and cohesive environment. I totally trust her for.”
“Debe was beyond amazing and cared for my Sammy as I would. I liked the great communication and photos/videos I received. My visit to San Antonio was great and knowing my lil guy was in good hands while I explored the city made it even better. I would recommend Debe to anyone. Thank you so so much for taking care of Sammy in your home. Also glad he had buddies to play with as well.”
About: Hi my name is Kayla, I’ve lived here in San Antonio for 8 years before that I lived in Laredo with a family of Pitbulls. Mom, dad, and all of their babies. I have had a lot of experience owning many different animals including dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, and turtles. I currently have a Pitbull named Pitlet, a Chiewennie named weenie and another weenie named Preicess. They are my entire world. Don’t hesitate to message me and ask any questions at any time I’m always available and :) I hope to meet your fur babies one day I’ve recently been let go from work meaning, I will be available for your fur babies when the sun comes up till it goes down. I have a routine when meeting other dogs with mine. Involves with meeting each other one on one with them alone. Work great for them🫶🏼

“Jackie is our favorite sitter. Highly recommend!! She takes great care of our pups, and I appreciate the updates during their visit. I feel peace of mind knowing they're with her when they can't be with us ❤️”

“Katie, her wife, and their three four-legged assistants are such an amazing team! I can be a helicopter pawrent but I knew that my pup was in safe, knowledgeable, and loving hands off the bat. Katie sent photos throughout the service and my pup was having tons of fun all the way until pick-up. They have a large yard for the pups to sunbathe in and run around. We spoke at the end of the service and they gave me a run down of how everything went and I greatly appreciated that especially since it helps me get to know how my pup is while I’m away. Overall, my pup had a great time and I had a peace of mind while I was away from him. They are the sweetest humans and pups!”
“Emmarose is very knowledgeable about dogs. She is very kind. My dog is a shy dog and he warmed up to her pretty quickly. She communicated well and gave me updates throughout the day. Will have my puppy stay with her again.”
About: I've been working with animals for almost 10 years. I was a veterinary technician in private practice and currently work at an animal shelter. I'm fear free certified and have a range of experience from healthy, medical needs, and seniors. I'm comfortable administering medications and providing medical care. I work well with scared and nervous pets and make sure their time is stress free as possible. I also have personal and professional experience with pocket pets and aquarium pets. I work full-time but I make sure to plan accordingly for your pets needs. I have an extra bedroom that they can stay in, if not comfortable having them around other pets. I also have a kennel if they need down time or like to have a safe space to decompress in. I have 3 days off during the week and those days will be filled with multiple walks, play sessions, and anything else that will make their stay comfortable. I have a fenced yard and my 3 dogs love playing and taking walks throughout the neighborhood. I have a separate room and/or a kennel for any pet that's not comfortable or needs additional time to decompress.
“Cindy is so great to work with! She made both Archie and I feel comfortable right away. Her home is well fenced and dog friendly. I think Archie knew right away that she is a dog lover. :) We will definitely be returning. PS: She sent me an adorable photo of my pup enjoying his play day.”
“Tambre is an amazing lady. We boarded our 2 dogs over the holidays. My dogs came back different in a very positive way. Both dogs seem to listen to commands more. I was kept updated with photos throughout their stay which brought alot of peace of mind during our travel. I will definitely be returning with this lady. It is not everyday that you have people who won't judge your pitbulls and actually take good care of them. Thank you ma'am.”
“Nacho was in great hands with Iliana and she took very good care of him. She is very attentive and understanding which was important to us considering Nacho is still very young. Iliana also sent updates during the day which ensured us that Nacho was doing good.”
“This is our second time using Amy’s service and we are so pleased with her. Our pup ran right inside like he was home which was exciting for me to see. I can tell he’s treated well and he LOVES her pup, T-Rex. They can play all day. 😄”
About: I have a lifelong passion for animals and grew up surrounded by dogs, which taught me the responsibility and patience required to be a great caregiver. My experience ranges from energetic small breeds to powerful large dogs, so I am comfortable and confident handling pets of all sizes. I also have a soft spot for senior dogs and understand the gentle touch and extra attention they often need to feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet needs a high-energy walk to burn off steam or a calm presence to sit and play with them at home, I prioritize their safety and happiness above all else. I pride myself on being reliable and attentive to each dog’s unique personality and routine. I’m excited to provide your pets with the same love and care I’ve given my own throughout my life! I have a very pet-friendly schedule! I work from home every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, which allows me to provide your pet with constant companionship and potty breaks throughout the day. While I am typically in the office on Mondays and Fridays, I have the flexibility to work from home on those days as well with a little bit of notice. Your pet will rarely be alone. Because I don’t currently have pets of my own, your pet becomes my sole priority and receives my 100% undivided attention. In your home, I focus on maintaining their established routine to keep them stress-free. Whether it’s high-energy walks and active play or simply hanging out in their space to provide a calm presence, I adapt to their vibe. I’m happy to offer a 'hands-on' approach for cuddlers or a hands-off approach for more independent pets, and I am always flexible with special accommodations to ensure they feel safe and cared for.
“Max continues to be one of my top go to doggy sitters! He is absolutely fantastic, always accommodating my whacky work hours and providing lots of updates and pictures. My dog is always so excited when we pull up to his place, and is so happy at pick up. You can tell Max takes fantastic care of the dogs, and I have zero worries whenever my little dude is in his care.”
About: Hi there! I work from home and recently lost my soul dog to cancer. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and now I’d love to open my home and heart to your furry family members. Whether you’re out of town or working long hours, I’ll make sure your pup gets the love, attention, and playtime they deserve. I have a fully fenced yard that’s perfect for safe outdoor fun, and dogs are always welcome on the furniture because they’re family here! I also share my space with a friendly outdoor tortoise who loves soaking up the sun from our backyard. I’d be honored to care for your pet and make them feel right at home while you’re away. ❤️ I work from home, so pets fit perfectly into my day! We start with morning outdoor time, then lots of play breaks and cuddles throughout the day. I’m around for regular potty breaks, attention, and love your pets will feel right at home with me. In my home, pets are treated like family! They can relax on the furniture, play in the fenced yard, and get plenty of love and attention all day. When caring for pets in your home, I will try and follow your routine to keep them happy, comfortable, and stress-free.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Kirby
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Kirby on Rover is $32.1 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 Kirby 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 1,115 sitters in Kirby, 90% 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.
