“Nana and Scott were incredible with my older pup! They were flexible on drop-off and pick-up times, kept my dog well fed and active, and were just generally kind and caring. I will definitely be scheduling with them again soon!”
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.

“Yesterday’s visit went smoothly! The dogs were well cared for and came home happy. I loved receiving photo updates throughout the day—it gave me peace of mind. We’ll definitely use Deepa again! Highly recommend! ❤️”
“Daphne has the best time at your place and is especially in love with sweet little Moka. Thank you for always taking such amazing care of her and sharing pictures throughout the day. I’d give you 10 stars if I could!”
“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!”
“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: My name is Kalyn and my love for dogs started what I was about 5 years old. My family owned a yorkshire terrier whom I will never forget and years later I myself having a yorkie whom I love with all my heart. She is 11 years old, her name is Nova and she truly is my best friend! I can not even imagine my life with out her. I love dogs and truly enjoy spending my time with them. I have experience with various breeds and sizes of dogs and would love to care for your furbaby. I live in an apartment I however I do have a small backyard. I know it can be a little nerve wrecking to have someone else care for your furbaby so I promise to care for your dog just as I would do my own! I will keep you updated and send you as many photos as you would like. It would be super helpful if you have the profile for you pet filled out completely with pictures. If you have any questions or concerned please feel free to contact me! I am currently working a hybrid schedule where I work from home all days except Tuesdays. I am able to take your pup for as many potty breaks and walks as needed. I have a small backyard and will take your dog on walks in order to get exercise and stretch their legs. I also have a furbaby that will gladly keep your pup company.
“Amazing job!! They took day-care of my baby and stayed home with her all day. They took her on walks and played with her as a fun family. Bliss was so excited to go back every day and I loved the comfort of knowing she was in good hands while I had to be away from her during the day.”
“Mika did a wonderful job taking care of our dog. No hesitation in recommending 100%. She's very kind and has a gentle demeanor. She provides frequent updates and offer great communication.”
“Great host! Prompt communication and feedback. Even though it was a short few hours stay, Selena shared multiple updates throughout. And most importantly, Mylo seems had good time with new friends. Will definitely book again.”
“Lisa has been kind enough to watch Leonard on the days I have to go into the office. When I picked him up the first day, he was calm and not at all stressed. She treats him as if he is her own and he feels a lot more comfortable being in a home setting rather than at a doggy daycare. Lisa made sure he was fed at the appropriate times and took him outside when he wanted. Very thankful I’ve found someone caring to watch him.”
“Sean did a great job with our Bassett hound Lilly. Our family had a change in our travel schedule and Sean replied quickly and was accommodating to our doggy! Thanks so much Sean!”

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 McKinney 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 2,425 sitters in McKinney, 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.
