About: I have experience watching dogs of all ages and sizes in NY and now Texas. I understand needs of dogs whether that be sensitive to noises, separation anxiety, etc - I’ve seen it all. Especially with my own six pound Chihuahua! Experience in administering medicine and training, I can help you and accommodate for anything you may need. I have tons of love to give and will provide an easy and calming experience for you and your family. I work from home and am able to give your pet 24/7 attention. Walks can be given every hour and the dog park at least once a day, if your dog likes dog parks. I am available every day and very flexible with scheduling. I live alone in a quiet house with a fenced backyard so there’s plenty of space for your furry friend to get comfortable. I also have a very friendly chihuahua that will be with me for any dog boarding. Your dog may sleep on the furniture or in a crate, whatever you prefer. I can administer medicine (no shots) and live within walking distance of a vet that I know personally, so this is the perfect place in case of any emergencies.
“Marissa was very attentive to our puppy. She went out if her way to talke extra care of her, gave her medicine and always walked her and sent us picttires. She was very responsible and easy to work with”
“Yesenia is always the best sitter for our pup. She has wonderful communication and makes me feel so comfortable leaving my dog with her. She sends lots of photos and makes you feel reassured that your pup is in the best hands!”
“Elizabeth and Adrian were absolutely amazing with Nala! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in great hands. They were caring, attentive, and made sure she felt comfortable and loved throughout her daycare stay. Nala had an absolute blast, especially making a new furry best friend, Niki! It was so heartwarming to see how much fun she had playing, socializing, and coming home happy and tired after a full day of adventures. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of our girl. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we’ll definitely be booking with you again. Highly recommend Elizabeth and Adrian to anyone looking for kind, trustworthy, and loving pet caregivers!”
“Highly recommend! My dog has dementia which means he's constantly having his brains turn more and more into mash potatoes. Patches was able to provide exceptional care with all his special needs and I never worried about him bc he was in such good hands! 😻 Meow!”
“Absolutely amazing, came in last minute when my plans for a dog sitter had fallen apart and took amazing care of my fur baby. I think our trip ended up being more fun for him than it was for us thanks to Jen. Highly recommend!!”
About: I've grown up around and taken care of animals since before I can remember, but since I was 15 I have taken care of and raised my own dogs, as well as pet sit for those in my community. I have taken care of all sizes of dogs dogs and all types personality types, and currently own a spirited 130 lb Great Pyrenees, as well as a smart and stubborn olde English Bulldogge, which makes me pretty comfortable with just about any type of dog. Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra TLC, I’m comfortable adapting my care to each pet’s unique needs. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs with different temperaments, energy levels, and routines, and I understand that every pet deserves patience, consistency, and lots of love. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions, administer basic medications if needed, and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to make sure your fur baby is happy, comfortable, and well cared for—and that you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! Having been a nanny for many years, I am a stickler for instructions and insuring that the service a provide is exactly how my client would want it done! I will always be sure to leave your home exactly as I found it, and clean up any messes made along the way (dog toys out, messes made before i have arrived etc.)
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, personalities, and energy levels — from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and comfort. I understand that every dog is different, and I always make it a priority to help them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their routine, I’ll make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I am currently a college student with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to focus on walks, drop-ins, play sessions, and quality care for your pets. I’m dependable, attentive, and always happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’m especially mindful of dogs who may feel nervous in new environments or around new people. I take the time to learn each dog’s personality, routine, and needs so they can feel as relaxed and happy as possible during our time together. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special needs. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment, and I make sure pets are always supervised. I’m attentive to behavior and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you feel confident your pet is in good hands.
“What a fabulous first experience with Rover! Couldn’t have asked for better care of our Charlie. Frances was super responsive, available at all times, willing to let us pick him up late, kept in touch, sent lots of photos and even offered to give Charlie a bath when I asked about places to give him a bath. She is the best!”
“Amanda and Jared are the most amazing dog watching couple! They absolutely love our dog and are so attentive when they watch him. Not only do they send pics with updates but they treat him like their own. 100% recommend for anyone needing a dog sitter!”
About: Hi, I'm austin-native Amanda! I've had dogs my entire life and have been the primary caregiver for my own dog, Bug, since he was a puppy. He's now 8 years old, so I've experienced every stage of a dog's life from energetic puppy days to establishing routines and adapting to changing needs as they get older. I currently have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and companionship. Whether your dog enjoys playing, exploring on walks, or simply relaxing, I'm happy to tailor their care to what makes them happiest. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a secure, shaded fenced dog park at my apartment for safe outdoor time, and during the Texas summer I plan activities around the heat with shorter walks, shade, water breaks, and indoor play when needed. I know how much our pets mean to us because I feel the same way about Bug. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in caring, dependable hands. I currently have a very flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home, so I have plenty of time to provide attentive care, walks, playtime, and potty breaks. My own dog, Bug, keeps me on a consistent routine, and I enjoy getting outside for walks and making sure dogs get the attention and exercise they need. I'm available for daytime care, walks, drop-in visits, and can often accommodate evenings and weekends with advance notice. I have a secure, fenced dog park at my apartment with plenty of shade, so dogs have a safe place to go outside without spending too much time on hot pavement during the Texas summer. There's also plenty of space and toys to play with in my nice airconditioned apartment. :) I know every dog has different routines and needs, so I'm happy to follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, crating, or any other care preferences. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll treat them with the same attention and care I give my own dog, Bug.
“Paul and Karina are so great! They provide a great environment for doggos, make sure only well-tempered pups are in the mix so everyone is safe and having fun. They have a lovely house where pups are allowed on furniture (within reason) and also have a back yard full of toys where pups can run their energy off. They are so flexible with appointments - they’ve been extremely accommodating as I’m juggling taking care of my pup and my own health. They’re wonderful people and i don’t know how I’d get by if i never met them. Thank you so much to both of you!!!”
“Aimee was SO great with my senior doggie! You can tell Aimee genuinely loves animals and cares for them very well in her home. She was extremely communicative and sent photos and videos which I really appreciated. I'll be boarding my doggie with Aimee soon!”
“Madison was wonderful taking care of Gordi! 💕 She was very sweet, and Gordi was so calm and happy when we came back. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and reliable sitter.”
“Wonderful family! Our goldendoodle was comfortable and had a great time. They were very flexible with our plans and made it easy for us on our trip to Austin! Thanks so much!”
“I literally can’t not say enough positive things about Laura! She accepted my booking super last minute when I really needed the assistance! She is sweet as pie and loves my baby Prince Ralphie as of it was her her own fur baby 💕💯”

Katherine is truly the WORLDS BEST DOGSITTER, providing exceptional care that my dogs absolutely adored. Even my chihuahua, who typically takes time to warm up to new people, felt comfortable and happy in her presence. Katherine consistently sent delightful pictures and updates, ensuring we felt connected and reassured about our pets’ well-being. Adding a unique touch, she even engaged them in fun art projects, creating memorable keepsakes from their stay. We will definitely be booking Katherine again for our dogsitting needs. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a caring and creative dogsitter! 🐾
They were fabulous!!! My dog Inez loved playing with their pup Willy and I got several pics and videos throughout the day. She seemed very tired and content when she got home! Extra special thanks to Katherine because our flight coming back was delayed several times and she was so nice being flexible with having to change pickup time. Would definitely recommended!!
I highly recommend Amane! She took amazing care of Ari and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was very responsive, flexible with my pickup time, and kept me updated throughout the stay with lots of photos and messages about what they were doing. Ari had such a great time—he went on a walk and visited the park and cooled off by the water! He looked so happy in every picture, and it was obvious he was having a blast and was well cared for. I really appreciated all the updates and the love and attention she gave him. I would absolutely book with her again!
I needed someone to watch Jude for the day while the movers came and I navigated moving logistics so they helped with Jude for a daycare visit. Katelyn and Joe were really easy to book with and tag teamed communication. They offered both a virtual meet and greet or an in person one, they were very accommodating. Jude felt very calm and peaceful in their home. They sent great pictures let me know how he was doing. It made me feel less stressed during the move. I would let them watch Jude again!
Marissa was great! She took great care of our pup Appa while we were out for the day. He had a lot of fun and was very relaxed when we picked him up. Unfortunately we moved to the other side of town, but if we were still nearby we’d absolutely be returning back! Highly recommend Marissa if you need a pup sitter!
Jennifer has been so great!!! She has taken such wonderful care of my dog Wuzzy, she has sent lots of photos and given great updates on how Wuzzy does during daycare with her, and I can always tell how happy and calm Wuzzy is with her. Jennifer has been very responsible, trustworthy, and professional. Thank you Jennifer!!!
Emma was the perfect host! My dogs were well taken of through out their visit. Emma was very flexible with the timing and worked to accommodate our needs! My girls loved their walks and everything was first class! Emma is my Austin connection! Thanks, Emma! Lucy Lou and Lilly Bug Love you!💕🐶🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Shayna was awesome and so caring of our kiddos while we were traveling and visiting ATX. She was flexible with our pickup and drop off times and really made the trip to ATX a breeze with one less thing to worry about for the day. She’s great at communicating, sending us updates on the kiddos and making sure they were comfortable. Really thankful we were able to find a great sitter. We really recommend Shayna and her services. We hope to come back and use her services again.
Reid and Sabrina, ably assisted by Dexter and Kramer took such good care of our dog Pepsi! She came back happy and tired and we received lots of nice pics and even a video while she was with them. Good vibes from the start, would 100% recommend them to mind your dog!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Sunset Valley on Rover is $34.24 per day (as of August 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 Sunset Valley 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 2,799 sitters in Sunset Valley, 84% 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.
