“Jingyi was an amazing dog sitter! My dog, Ruffles, thoroughly enjoyed his day with her. She is extremely professional and thoughtful, and she sent so many pictures throughout the day, which really helped ease my anxiety as a pet parent. It was clear Ruffles was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I would highly recommend Jingyi to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was young, giving me over 20 years of hands-on experience with pups of all sizes and personalities. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets as if they were my own. I’m comfortable with puppies, seniors, high-energy breeds, and shy or anxious dogs. I’m patient, calm, and attentive—your pet’s routine, comfort, and happiness always come first. I take pride in making sure every dog feels safe, loved, and understood while in my care. I currently am a stay at home parent, which gives me plenty of flexibility to devote quality time to your pets. I’m available for boarding on weekends weekday. Whether it’s daily walks, check-ins, or overnight stays, I make sure your pet gets consistent attention, playtime, and affection. I stay in close communication and keep routines as familiar as possible so your pet feels comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard so your pup will always have a safe place to explore. I can easily crate your dog if requested or needed, and I follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, or special routines you provide.

“We had a wonderful experience with Judith!! We are always nervous to try someone new but Judith made us feel very comfortable with her caring for our baby. She sent updates and pictures and kept us in the loop the whole stay. Would use again!”

“Mr. Bingley is loving his time with Kenzie so far, he always gets excited in the car when we pull up and it's only been a week since we've started daycare. I'm excited to see their bond grow. He also gets lots of play time so he always comes home in a great mood!”
About: If your dog is your baby, then we are speaking the same language. I recently lost my baby of 16 years, so I am reopening my home for pet sitting and doggy daycare. I work from home full time, and have experience caring for senior dogs. Your babies will have plenty of dog beds, toys, blankets and couch seats to enjoy at my house. My apartment is more of a corner townhouse with a large green grassy area directly out front, and a creek walking trail just behind it. I have indoor smart cameras to monitor them if I need to step out or run errands. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can be a little nerve wracking. I made a list of rules for my owns parents to watch my dog when I first got him, so rest assured they are in competent and caring hands. I will send plenty of pup selfies too so you won't miss them as much. Please let me know if you have any questions before booking. Does your pup want to be employee of the month? I work at home so the position is open and they will be treated with VIP status. Pets are allowed on all the furniture and cuddling is encouraged. I try to take any pet guests outside several times a day as they adjust to a new environment and so they can explore new places. I also have a crash tested dog car seat for up to 35 pounds if they like to go for car rides or visit the park.
“Nana provides such a confident and calm atmosphere when you arrive. The pups came home happy and relaxed! We will definitely be using her and her husband Scott again.”
About: I have always grown up with dogs in my house since I was born. I have years of experience dog sitting, dog walking. I own two sweet, gentle amazing dogs — your dog will be safe, spoiled, and loved while staying here. I have a fenced in yard & a dog park close by as well. Reach out for any additional questions - excited to care for your pup! I currently work part time as a nurse and home most days of the week. My schedule is flexible and I will adjust to whatever is needed. I am never gone for more than 4 hours at a time. I have a mini Australian shepherd and a golden retriever. They love playing with new dogs and running around the yard. I live in a community with lots of sidewalks and areas to take your dog if they love walking or exploring.
“Silas left in a happier mood than when I dropped him off! Chris and his family are great. Awesome to have my pup get to hang with his son and dog while I had a busy day. The update photos along Silas’s stay were great as well! Will be using Chris as a regular resource for day care and boarding!”
About: I’m a registered nurse and animal lover with 7 years of hands-on pet care experience. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, litter care, playtime, senior pets, shy or anxious animals, and routine oral or topical medications when clear instructions are provided. My nursing background makes me especially detail-oriented about schedules, safety, and noticing changes in behavior, appetite, or energy. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and believe good pet care includes respecting each animal’s personality—whether they want lots of attention or prefer some quiet space. I’m dependable, communicative, and happy to send photos and real updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away I work part-time and keep my Rover calendar intentionally flexible, so I only accept bookings when I know I can give your pet the time and attention they need. I’m available for drop-ins, boarding, and other services depending on my schedule. I’m especially happy to care for cats, senior pets, and animals who do best with a calm, predictable routine. My availability varies week to week, and I keep my calendar updated so you can easily see when I’m available Your pet’s safety and routine come first. My home is calm and currently has no resident pets, so boarded animals do not have to adjust to unfamiliar animals in the home. I follow feeding, medication, crate, sleep, and activity instructions as closely as possible and won’t make changes to your pet’s routine without discussing them with you. For drop-ins and house sitting, I’m careful about doors, locks, leashes, gates, and possible escape risks, and I treat your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I only accept bookings when I’m confident I can safely meet that particular pet’s needs.

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 Lucas 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 2,571 sitters in Lucas, 89% 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.
