“Absolutely AMAZING! My dog literally jumps out the car when I drop him off to Jamie's. He loves being there and she always keeps me updated throughout the day with lots of pics and videos. She truly has a care and love for animals and it definitely shows. Will primarily only be using her from now one! Absolutely GREAT!!!!!”

About: Dogs have always been part of my life. I've been caring for them since I was 10 years old, and today I'm still the person family and friends call first for dog advice or when they need someone they completely trust with their pets. We work from home, so your dog won't be left alone for long stretches of the day. Instead, they'll be part of our daily routine with plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and naps in between. We have three young children who have grown up around animals and understand how to interact with them respectfully. Because of that, we welcome dogs that enjoy a family environment and all the extra love and attention that comes with it. Our home is set up with pets in mind. We have a spacious home, a fully fenced backyard, and gates available if dogs need their own space. Our cat's food and litter box stay safely upstairs, making it easy to keep everyone comfortable. We also share our home with our gentle 80-pound Lab/Rhodesian Ridgeback mix, who loves meeting new dogs, and our one-year-old cat. We take introductions slowly and always prioritize a safe, low-stress environment for every guest. Every dog has their own routine, and we're happy to keep things as close to home as possible. Whether your dog needs oral medication, follows a specific feeding schedule, sleeps in a crate, prefers sleeping in the bedroom, or has other daily habits, we're happy to accommodate them. We also use Barkbus for our own dog and have a trusted local groomer, so if you'd like your pup groomed during their stay, we're happy to coordinate that as well. One of our favorite features is that our backyard overlooks a golf course, giving your dog front-row seats to all the action. Whether they're keeping an eye on the golfers, celebrating a great drive, or wondering how that ball ended up in the water, there's always something entertaining to watch. Our goal is simple: to make your dog feel like they're staying with family while giving you complete peace of mind that they're safe, loved, and well cared for. Because I work from home, your dog will have plenty of companionship throughout the day. Potty breaks, playtime, walks, meals, and rest are naturally built into our daily routine, so your pup won't be left alone for long periods. I love keeping owners updated with photos and messages, and I'm happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medications, and other routines that help your dog feel at home. Your dog's safety and comfort are always our top priorities. We have a spacious home with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. We introduce all dogs carefully to our gentle resident dog and always monitor interactions. Gates are available if a dog needs their own space, and we're happy to accommodate crate-trained dogs or any routines they follow at home. Our cat's food and litter box are kept upstairs, and we maintain a clean, calm environment where every pet is treated like family. Before each stay, we'll discuss your dog's personality, preferences, and any special instructions so we can provide the best possible care.

“Luong was amazing with Luna! He took such great care of her, and I really appreciated that she got some time to socialize with other dogs while she was there. He even got her a new toy, which she is now completely obsessed with 😂 I felt really comfortable leaving Luna with him and could tell she was well looked after. I’d definitely recommend Luong to anyone looking for someone caring and reliable to watch their pup, and I’d happily book with him again!”

About: Unfortunately, the pictures in my profile are somewhat misleading as my Molly passed away in January 2025. I miss her so much! But, thankfully, Molly taught me a lot about doggie care! As a retired data analyst and lifelong animal lover, I bring a rare blend of reliability, attention to detail, and genuine care to every pet I meet. I’m home full-time, which means your pet gets consistent, focused attention—no juggling or distractions. I specialize in: - 🐶 Senior pet care — I’m patient, gentle, and experienced with older dogs who need a slower pace, medication routines, or just a cozy companion. - 🐾 Puppy training basics — I help reinforce potty routines with calm consistency and positive reinforcement. - 🧠 Behavior tracking — My background in data means I notice patterns quickly. If your pet’s eating, sleeping, or behavior shifts, I’ll catch it early and keep you informed. I treat every pet like family—whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs structured play or a shy senior who just wants a quiet cuddle. My home is calm, clean, and safe, and I’m always happy to tailor care to your pet’s unique needs. Im newly retired and my only routine is going to the gym in the morning. But, rest assured, your pet won't ever be alone...my husband is here and works from home. I’m a retired professional who’s home full-time, which means your pet gets consistent, attentive care in a calm, secure setting. My home in Richardson is quiet, clean, and pet-friendly—with one sweet resident cat who’s mellow and used to sharing space. If your dog or cat isn't though, Jaz can always go to my mother-in-laws studio attached to our house if necessary. For dogs who enjoy outdoor time, I have a fully fenced backyard with a pool. I supervise all outdoor play closely and never allow unsupervised access to the pool area. Safety is always my top priority—whether it’s monitoring interactions, keeping routines consistent, or ensuring your pet feels comfortable and secure. In your home, I follow your instructions to the letter—respecting your space, keeping things tidy, and maintaining your pet’s familiar environment. I’m experienced with medication routines, senior care, and behavior tracking, and I always provide updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing. Whether it’s a playful pup, a shy senior, or a curious cat, I tailor my care to fit their personality and needs—because every pet deserves to feel safe, seen, and loved.

About: I have loved animals all my life. I was always asked to dog sit. I have taken care of many different kinds of animals. I am very loving and can also have an authoritative voice if needed when walking dogs. I am great at reading animals body language and acting accordingly. The most important thing is I love animals and will care for your animal as if it were my own. I am currently available Mon-Sunday to board or drop off your furry friend at my place! If I have a couple days in advance it is appreciated! It is just me and my dad as my daughter is away at college! Peaceful fun home! I am a caregiver for my 81 year old father and am now boarding one dog at a time! We are both dog lovers! I know many dogs would prefer being in their own home, depending on their personality! I would care them as you would!. I love cats as well just have to take allergy medicine because my eyes start itching. Well worth it! Just can not sleep in the same bed. I provide many walks and lots of TLC!

About: Lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, and more—I treat every pet like family. I have a small dog of my own (Brio, 11 years!) and understand how important it is to trust who’s caring for your furry companion. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and value timely communication, providing high quality care and your trust in me. Some of my offerings include at least 3 walks and check-ins daily, (depending on the need) and daily boarding and doggy day, in a safe,clean, pet-friendly home. I also like to keep the pups clean after every walk by wiping them down fully, including their paws, with fragrance free pet wipes. I generally follow a consistent schedule where I keep your furry babies well-fed, active throughout the day via walks or indoor/outdoor play time and comfortable. While I stick to a consistent schedule, I'm happy to accomodate to any special care or routine needs. Feel free to reach out anytime with questions or to see if I'm a good fit for your pet—I’d love to meet them! I offer daily boarding and doggy day-care in a safe, clean, pet friendly home and multiple walks/ check-ins a day as needed. I typically follow a consistent schedule providing meals 3x a day, or as needed, followed by a walk and lots of play time throughout the day. I also like to keep your pups clean throughout the day by wiping them down fully, including their paws, after every walk. While I stick to a consistent schedule, I'm happy to accomodate to any special care or routine needs. My dog, Brio, is friendly with other dogs and can keep your furry baby some company. My home is fully equipped with beds, a crate, food bowls, toys, and a playpen if needed. Pets are welcome on the couch, and we love giving plenty of cuddles and playtime to keep them happy and comfortable.

About: Hi! My name is Vi, and I’m a professional pet sitter with Silver Spur K9. We’re a home-based dog care and training business where we open our six-bedroom home to a small number of dogs each day, creating a comfortable, personal environment rather than a traditional boarding facility. We typically welcome up to five training clients per day, while also offering dedicated pet boarding spaces for dogs who simply need a safe and loving place to stay while their families are away. While staying with us, dogs get more than just a place to sleep. We incorporate social activities, enrichment walks, playtime, individual attention, and plenty of opportunities to relax and feel at home. We keep our environment intentionally small so each dog can receive the attention and care they deserve. Our team includes a certified professional dog trainer, myself, and a dedicated kennel technician, allowing us to provide attentive care throughout the day and accommodate each dog’s individual routine and needs. We also offer professional dog training through Silver Spur K9 for families who are interested in adding training to their pet’s stay. Whether your pup is here for boarding, daycare-style care, or training, our goal is to make their stay safe, enriching, and enjoyable while giving you complete peace of mind. 🐾 Our days are full of fun! 🐾 Potty & breakfast, walks, playtime, enrichment activities, one-on-one attention, training, social time, naps, and lots of cuddles. Every pup gets a fun, structured day based on their personality! Safety is always our #1 priority! Every dog is temperament-tested to help ensure they are comfortable in our structured, home-based environment and around other dogs. Because we are also a training environment, we maintain clear routines and closely supervise interactions. Each pup receives a clean, comfortable kennel for safe rest and overnight sleep, regular potty breaks, meals on schedule, fresh water, and plenty of individual attention. Throughout the day, dogs enjoy walks, supervised play, enrichment activities, social time when appropriate, and plenty of opportunities to relax and recharge. Our goal is to create a safe, structured, and fun home away from home where every dog can feel comfortable, cared for, and loved.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy caring for them. I currently care for my senior cat, so I understand the extra patience, attention, and routine that older pets often need. I also play polo and grew up on a farm, giving me years of hands on experience caring for all types of animals and recognizing the importance of consistency, safety, and detail. I have experience caring for dogs (my family has dogs at my parents' home), birds, and freshwater fish. At home, I maintain a planted aquarium with bettas, shrimp, and snails, so I'm comfortable caring for aquatic pets as well. Whether your pet needs playtime, exercise, medication reminders, or simply a calm and reliable companion while you're away, I'll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own animals. I know every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I'm committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved until you return. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, giving me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive care. I'm available most days for walks, drop in visits, and overnight stays. Whether your pet needs a consistent routine, midday check ins, or extra attention while you're away, I'm happy to accommodate your schedule and make sure they receive the care, exercise, and companionship they need! Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I understand that every animal has different needs, so I take the time to learn their schedule, feeding routine, medications (if needed), favorite activities, and any special instructions before you leave. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat both your home and your pets with the same respect and attention I would my own. I'll make sure your pets receive plenty of love, exercise, playtime, and companionship while keeping their routine as consistent as possible to minimize stress. Communication is important to me, so I'll provide regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

If your dog loves to play with other dogs this is the place for you! My dog Oleo had such a great time at Jamie's house. I came to pick him up and he didn't even notice me arriving since he has such a fun time without me. Her regulars are so friendly and sweet my dog fit right in! He fell asleep in the car on the way home, and he seems tired like I took him to the dog park for hours. If I need caring in Dallas again this will 10/10 be a repeat visit.

This was our two dogs’ first time going to Frances for doggy daycare, and they both had an absolute blast! Our dog Oakley is usually very nervous and scared when meeting new people, but she seemed so calm and excited when she met Frances, which immediately made us feel comfortable leaving her there. We also received lots of updates throughout the day, which we really appreciated! It was so reassuring getting to see that both dogs were happy, comfortable, and having so much fun. We’ll definitely be bringing them back! 🐾❤️

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Richardson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Richardson is $33 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $44 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 3,106 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Richardson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Richardson 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.

As of October 2026, there are 3,106 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of TX. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
