“It was such a relief to find someone to take care of my baby. We got updates throughout the night it was amazing! I would use him again for sure. Such a warm spirit.”
“The dogs had a great time! Andrea was a great help since our other sitters were away. She watched both dogs for about 8 days. Very trustworthy and would have her watch the dogs again. She even gave our little one a bath!”
“Thank you Kathleen for keeping my Brownee for daycare. I appreciate your prompt responses during her stay, the updates you shared, and your attentiveness to the different personalities of the pups in your care. We look forward to Brownee’s next visit.”
About: I have been around pets all my life. I grew up on a farm with several different animals. Our family favorite has always been dogs. Now, I share that enjoyment with my kids. They love being around dogs too! We enjoy walking our own dogs and playing with them. Your pet would have a loving environment with lots of attention with us! I am a stay at home mom. So, currently, I have plenty of time to schedule pet care. Please let me know when your pet needs some TLC!) We have a fenced back yard with room for dogs to go out and stretch and take care of other business:-) We have two dogs that can easily stay with family while we watch your fur baby, or our little dog, can stay to give your dog company. We will be happy to play fetch or go on walks as well.
“Ernest has been a Godsend. He is patient with my senior and very anxious GSD. He has been extremely accommodating with my schedule and pays attention to the weather conditions and how they could impact our pets. He provides pool time for outside play and keeps them indoors during peak heat.”
“I had a great experience with Anabel and her family! This was my puppy’s first time staying with a dog sitter, and everything went really well. Anabel and her family were very friendly, welcoming, and caring. They were also very responsive and always got back to me quickly whenever I checked in. Most importantly, my puppy had a great time and seemed very happy and comfortable there. I would definitely recommend Anabel and her family and would be happy to have Joy stay with them again!”
“Alexis has been an absolute lifesaver for me and my dog, Honey! I drop Honey off early in the morning and often pick her up late in the evening, and Alexis has been incredibly flexible and understanding with my schedule. She loves Honey and so does her kids! Honey gets plenty of exercise, and I receive lots of photo updates throughout the day. I can see how happy and comfortable Honey is with her, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m at work. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter, and I highly recommend Alexis to anyone looking for someone truly caring and dependable! Honey is excited to see me but quickly turns around wanting to go back in her house, which I’ve never experienced! I can’t thank her enough for being so sweet to my dog.”
“Both Harley Quinn and us love Monica. HQ gets excited to jump out and head straight into Monica's house. Monica is kind, responsive and takes the best pics of Harley to share with us. A gem!”
“Abigail did a great job of taking care of our puppy! He seemed very happy and well exercised at the end of the day. Abigail was very communicative and willing to work with me despite a few changes to the schedule. I would definitely recommend!”
About: We have owned & loved several dogs over the years including training 1 to be a viable therapy dog for nursing home visits to my mom. I am home most of the day, M-Sun and have the time to love and care for a dog, and make it feel at home, while dog parent(s) are away. Our dogs are considered our furry family members and I want your dog to feel that way too! My yard is fenced and our home is clean and safe! I ensure dog(s) can go out regularly for potty breaks, and I love walking them too.
About: I'm available all day to your furry friend! I am a stay at home wife with a consistent schedule and patient with all types of personalities. Being Rover, I've had experience from helping a mama cat give birth to her babies to senior dog care with medication. I love what I do and grateful to help owners feel at ease while they are away from their pets. I require that your pet be flea free and on a monthly flea and tick prevention. Make sure all immunizations are up to date. A clean pet is a happy pet! :) My priority in the morning is to make sure everybody is fed. (Not like they let me forget since they are the ones who poke my face to wake me up). I make sure the water bowl is clean and filled up. I am a stay-at-home wife so your furry friends will have all my attention. I'm usually cleaning, baking, cooking, gardening, or going on strolls/gym time. My husband is also a HUGE animal lover so your baby/babies will be getting 2x the love when he gets home. Usually at night, it's game time, movie time, or just hanging around with the cats. The cats usually always sleep with us, but if not, they sleep on the couch. I live in a three bedroom house with a big backyard, but one of the rooms is no pet allowed. My husband and I have a shaded patio that is gated with chicken wire so our cat friends can also enjoy the outside. The patio is separated with a gate-door, so if we are hosting a dog they can enjoy at the same time with no problems. The extra room we have allows our guest/s to have their own room with their own window. They are free to walk through the house and make themselves comfortable.
About: Your pets aren’t just a job to me—they’ll be treated like part of the family! 🐾 I’m dependable, attentive, and big on making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their humans are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and quirks, and I’m happy to follow their normal schedule as closely as possible. Expect plenty of love, playtime, cuddles (if they’re into that!), and updates with photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. ❤️ I work from home during the week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care naturally into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and lots of attention throughout the day! 🐾 On Saturdays, I help out at our store, so my availability may be a little more limited, but I’m happy to coordinate care around my schedule. I love having furry company while I work and enjoy being able to give pets the attention and companionship they deserve throughout the day. I want every pet staying with me to feel comfortable, safe, and right at home! 🐾 Whether your pet is staying for the day or spending a few nights, they’ll get plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and relaxation throughout their stay. Since I work from home, I’m able to be around throughout most of the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal feeding schedule, potty routine, medications, crate routine, and any special instructions you provide. I know every pet is different, so I’ll adjust their care based on their personality, energy level, and needs. And of course, I’ll send plenty of pictures and updates so you can see how your pet is doing while they’re with me! ❤️

We couldn’t be happier with the care our Gracie receives from Kathleen. She is dependable, caring, & truly treats our dog like her own. We always have peace of mind when she can care for Gracie. We highly recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy & loving dog sitter!
I had a great experience with Anabel and her family! This was my puppy’s first time staying with a dog sitter, and everything went really well. Anabel and her family were very friendly, welcoming, and caring. They were also very responsive and always got back to me quickly whenever I checked in. Most importantly, my puppy had a great time and seemed very happy and comfortable there. I would definitely recommend Anabel and her family and would be happy to have Joy stay with them again!
I have enjoyed Carmen taking care of my puppy. She has a very nice playroom and her bernedoodle is very friendly. My puppy has enjoyed everytime that he has been there. The communication has been very good about how he has been when he is there and she takes really cute pics and sent them to me also.
Nala had a great afternoon at daycare with Samantha and her sweet pups!! I felt super comfortable with Nala in her care as well as her professional methods of introducing her to the pack. I can tell Nala was very loved and felt right at home by the updates provided and that she played and had fun by the long snooze she took when we got home! Will definitely book again!
Thank you Steph and Calvin. Wonderful dog loving people and they took great care of my best friend. Being new to boarding, I was worried the separion anxiety might be too much, but I pulled through. Rinnie dog did even better, he was happy around Steph and Calvin from meetup all the way to pickup, where he had to circle back to say goodbye before leaving.

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 Watauga 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 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 Meet & Greet .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
