“I was very comfortable leaving Neena with Suzanne. Suzanne went above and beyond to make my nervous little dog at ease. I look forward to future visits for Neena!”

About: I have been taking care of animals of all kinds since I was about 10 years old. I have been trusted with both family and friends fur babies on multiple occasions. I have had experience with birds, cats, dogs, fish, and even large lizards! I love all ages of puppies, and I love seeing all of their personalities! I am a stay at home mom to my baby girl, so I have all the time in the world to take care of and love on your fur babies and make sure they are getting tons of attention all day! I have a large fenced in back yard as well as my own fur babies who love making new friends. I have a kennel available for use if needed, but I like to let the dogs run around and play as long as possible!
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who would be thrilled to care for your pets like they’re part of my own family. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have had cats for the past 7 years. My home is currently filled with 7 animals of my own—2 dogs and 5 cats! They’re definitely my favorite part of home life (other than my husband, of course lol). I regularly care for the pets of my family and friends, including my brother-in-law’s dog, who I watch very frequently, as well as my family’s 2 dogs and cat. I also occasionally care for a close friend’s dog. One of my longer pet-sitting experiences was caring for my cousin’s dog for 3 months while she recovered from a broken leg. We are an extremely pet-friendly household and genuinely love having animals around. When friends come over, we’re always telling them to bring their pets! My schedule is currently completely open, and as an at-home wife, I’m able to be home with your pets for the majority of the day most days. I’m happy to provide plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, walks, and cuddles so your pets feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of animals and would love the opportunity to get to know your pets and their individual personalities and routines. I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust, and I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Our home is a very pet-friendly and welcoming environment, and our own pets are a huge part of our everyday life. We currently have 2 dogs and 5 cats, so we’re very comfortable with animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. Because I’m an at-home wife, I’m home the majority of the day and can provide frequent supervision, attention, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions you provide. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely get outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. We also live right next to a park and creek, which gives us plenty of opportunities for walks and outdoor time for pets who enjoy exploring. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for, loved, and treated like family while they’re with me. I also understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s personality and needs beforehand and make sure we have a plan that keeps everyone comfortable and safe. For pets who need or are more comfortable with their own separate space, we also run available to set up kennel(s). I’m happy to accommodate individual needs and make sure every pet has a safe and comfortable environment. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel confident that they’re being cared for, supervised, loved, and treated like family while they’re with me.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was old enough to handle responsibilities. I grew up on 10 acres and have provided love and care for dogs, cats, birds(pigeons, chickens, parakeets), and horses. I have volunteered at animal shelters since high school and have pet sat for both families and friends. I love all animals and am excited to meet all the fur babies! I’m a stay at home mom who is looking for a fun and furry way to spend time. I would be around most of the time to ensure your fur baby has what they need. I have my own fur baby as well, an indoor kitty named Jasmine. I have a large fence in yard and a large dog crate for when I do need to step out which will be kept in the air conditioning. They will get daily walks, weather permitting, and as much outdoor time as they wish. If there is anything particular your fur baby enjoys, let me know and I will provide it if it is in my capabilities.

“Sara, fantastic dog daycare. Communication was excellent, and she was incredibly responsible and reliable in caring for my 2 dogs. We are completely satisfied. We love all the pictures she shared.”

About: What sets me apart is that your pet will have someone home with them throughout the day, giving them plenty of love, attention, and companionship. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I also provide regular picture and video updates so you can feel at ease knowing your baby is happy and in good hands. I work from home, so I'm here to keep your pets company throughout the day. I ove taking dogs for walks and showering them with attention and affection. Your furry friends will feel right at home with me! When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection throughout the day, along with regular potty breaks, feeding based on their routine, and lots of supervision since I am home most of the day. For pet daycare and boarding, I focus on keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible so they feel at ease while away from home. I also provide updates with pictures and videos so you can see how your pet is doing and feel confident they are happy and well cared for.”
About: I've worked with different breeds of dogs from rottweilers to english bulldogs. I can pick up on dog behavior really well and follow thier schedule. I work from home so I can make my time available for your fur baby from twelve o'clock to six o'clock in the late afternoon I have a medium sized fenced in yard. There is two dog park near by. I have a dog to give your dog a playmate. I work part-time, so I have plenty of free time to give your pup attention throughout the day. I’m home a lot, which means extra walks, playtime, and lots of company for dogs who don’t like being alone. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays after 2pm, and I’m really flexible with scheduling if your dog needs a little extra time or care. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I keep a calm, clean environment and follow whatever routine your dog is used to—feeding times, walks, crate time, everything. I’m patient with shy or anxious pups and gentle with seniors. I’m also comfortable crating if needed, giving space when dogs need it, and making sure they feel safe, seen, and cared for the whole time.
“Mellow truly enjoys staying with Marisa! I feel confident about his stays with her because I know she will help him as he continues to work on his social skills. She is patient with him and is consistent in providing feedback so that I can help him in anything he is working through. I also love all the pictures and videos she sends me! Thank you, Marisa, for pulling through with the last minute changes during my move!”

About: We have raised 3 different dogs together. Two of those furr babies required medical care and special diets, so we are always very attentive and careful with all pets needs! We recently lost our precious boy River, due to his liver disease and we miss his presence tremendously. So having other pets over truly helps keep us going and having a boost of morale. With that being said, we will give your pet 100% of our attention at all times. You can trust your pet will be supervised and cared for all day. At least one of us is always home to supervise when we are dog sitting so your pet is never alone. We have a small dog park at our complex for some outdoor fun time, and can provide daily walks as well to ensure they get more exercise! We have made our home safe for your dog keeping certain things out of reach. I can update you regularly with picture updates as well!
“She's the best! I'm so glad she's available for my dog. She's new on rover, but she's definitely not new in caring for dogs. My dog loves it when I grab her overnight bag and mention Jessamys name😂..”

About: what sets me apart is not only is this a passion for me i went to school for it. I feel like pet care services should be more accessible cause you know shit happens and having a good pet care system really changes things. Im from Chicago and im currently trying to become an exotic veterinarian or be within vet med sciences. I completed one step by attended fox college vet tech in chicago and trained animals on top of that specializing in fear and aggression. I’ve worked with banfield clinics and have done free service pop ups. i’m never gonna judge just want to be part of your pet caring team. I work for a different company aside from rover and I love it doing the same thing. I went to school for it. its a passion for me. people and animals save each other all the time, thats the stuff that matters. a good pet care system helps foster a good environment. I own pets so i understand all sides. I always follow the instructions given first to me first because every dog and every routine is different. tips and tricks can work for certain situations but at the end of the day, pet parent knows their dog best. How I personally take care of my pets is through getting to know their individual personalities and building a system that runs with my lifestyle, but also taking them to dog parks using plate puzzles to stimulate them, and personal time because, at the end of the day they are just as as much as aware as we are.

Your pup won’t just be cared for ; they’ll be cared about. ❤️ 🚨MUST BE CRATE TRAINED🚨 **MUST BE CRATE TRAINED** My work schedule is very flexible.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Temple is $16 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $16 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 271 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Temple. 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 Temple 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 271 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
