“Denise has been wonderful with my puppy Luna for her first week at daycare! She really gets to know the dogs and has a nice yard for them to play in. She has been very communicative and sends pictures throughout the day. Denise was also fairly flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, which I appreciated. Huge thanks to her for helping me out my first week going back to my office for work after getting my pup!”
“Jen was great with my pup. Xena is a sweet and nervous around other dog; Jen was more than accommodating and took her time introducing her to the other dogs. On her second day she was fully part of the pack and I had a great time at puppy land. I would definitely recommend her services 10/10”
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 8, whether it was my own dog, one in the neighborhood, or in shelters and I love it! I just graduated college and am hoping to do some pet care while I look for a job, because of this my schedule is very open! I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs in my home and in others’ homes. The safety and happiness of a dog in my care will always be my top priority, and I know that looks a little different for each dog parent!
“My dog Otto had a fun day with Kristen and her family. Kristen has a nice fenced in yard for dogs and her house is across the street from a park where they spent lots of time. Kristen also has lots of dog toys in her yard that Otto enjoyed playing with. Kristen's dog Zoey is very sweet and would get along with any dog, and Kristen's children took an interest in Otto. Kristen sent pictures even though I didn't request them (thank you!), she was very flexible about drop off and pick up times, and her location in South Austin was very convenient for us. I recommend Kristen without reservation.”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, snakes, and lizards, each with their own unique personalities and needs. I’ve trained playful puppies, cared for senior dogs with extra love and patience, and made sure every pet felt safe and happy. Giving them attention and proper care has always brought me joy. Now, I’m excited to share that same passion with you and your pets! I work full-time from home with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets throughout the day. As an early riser and an animal lover, I’m available for morning visits, walks, feedings, and plenty of attention during the day, as well as after work. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, feeding, or habitat maintenance, I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away! I care for my two dogs like they’re my children, giving them endless love, attention, and the best care possible. Every pet deserves to feel safe, happy, and cherished, and I’ll treat your dogs, cats, and other pets with the same kindness and dedication as I do my own. Im a big believer that walks are for the pets, not the walker, so I let them sniff, explore, and take their time for as long as they need. Their well-being always comes first!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a child and cared for our family pup! In the past, I've cared for friends' and family's dogs, from check-ins and walks to overnight stays. I work from home so I have plenty of time to give your dog endless love and cuddles, and take them for long walks. If they enjoy playing with other dogs, I love to make stops at the dog park during our walks. My 3 year old cavapoo loves having friends stay with us, and is the perfect companion for your pup during their stay! My apartment building has a dog park, and I live in a very walkable area, to take your pup on nice long walks.
“Simone was super communicative and easy to work with! This was my first time using Rover and she made it so painless for me! She took pictures and videos of my dog, and when I was running late for pick up she was happy to accommodate me. Will definitely be using her again!!”
About: I have a lot of experience with dogs, taking care of them, walking with them and hang out with them! I really love dogs and treat them as part of my family! I work from home so we'll be able to provide plenty of care and attention to your pup. Please let me know if there are additional needs that I should be aware of. I have fenced yard and a very friendly medium size poodle mix. We have a very chill poodle mix in our home named Mixie. If you aren't sure if your dog is friendly , we can absolutely arrange meet and greet and give it a try. If you know your dog is not friendly, then we do need to prioritize our dog wellbeing and will not be able to accept a booking.
“I really appreciate Mo getting me in last minute to take care of my new pup and adult dog. They where friendly and happy to bring both my dogs in for the day and where able to accommodate my busy schedule. When I picked my dogs up they had just gotten back from a walk and where excited to go home. Thanks for the help.”
“We boarded Milo with Lily for two weeks while out of town and then had her dog sit again for a few days. Our puppy was always excited to see Lily and came home happy after ever stay. Lily was very accommodating, responsive, and sweet with our puppy! She also provided regular pictures and updates. Highly recommend having your pet stay with Lily!”
“David was great for daycare with our dog! He responded promptly, took care to understand our dog's needs and was provided us with photos and updates throughout the day. He also provided us with a framed portrait of our dog at the end of the day, which was an awesome gesture. Would highly recommend David for doggy daycare or boarding!”
About: Hi, I’m Ashley and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 14 years, starting with my two Maltipoos, whom I’ve had since high school. They’re now happily living with my parents, but caring for them from puppies through adulthood taught me a lot about providing consistent, loving care and understanding each dog’s individual personality and needs🐕❤️ Before joining Rover, I also fostered a 3–month-old puppy for two weeks, helping with his daily routine, care, and adjustment while finding him a loving forever home. I love spending time together and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their families are away. I am a housewife so I’ll be spending most of the day with your dogs. I also don’t have children or pets at home, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m available throughout the day and can be flexible with different routines and schedules. I live in a secure apartment building with controlled access and security in the lobby. My balcony is always kept locked, so pets cannot access it. I’ll leave the house to run some errands for few hours, so if your dog uses a crate/kennel when left unattended, please provide one for the stay :)
About: Hi! I’m Iniya :) I’ve had my own dog for 12 years and have been helping care for dogs and cats for over 8 years. I’ve done everything from daily walks and drop-ins to overnight stays and longer pet-sitting while families are on vacation. I’m currently a senior in college with a light schedule, so I have lots of flexibility and plenty of time to give your pet attention, walks, playtime, and lots of love. I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your pet, and I’ll always treat them like I would my own! 🐾 I'm currently a senior at UT Austin but only have classes in the morning. My schedule has plenty of gaps in between for me to take care of your pet and give potty-breaks! I'm usually at my apartment most of the day so they won't be left alone for long periods of time. I have 3 other roommates that can help give company and play with your pet (they LOVE pets as well)! I live in an apartment that has a very spacious living room and bedrooms, so there is plenty of room for small to larger pets!

We’re so grateful for Rachele, who took a last minute request to watch our mini Aussie for 3 days. Piper always came home happy and tired, from a fun day of walks and play. I got lots of updates and cute photos. We’ll definitely be rebooking. Thank you, Rachele 🥰
Mackenzie was wonderful!! It was immediately apparent how much experience she has caring for animals, and she made me feel at ease knowing my fur baby would be in great care! My dog can be shy, takes meds, and has Sep anx and she handled his routine like a pro! Will definitely book again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in West Lake Hills on Rover is $36.63 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 West Lake Hills 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 2,824 sitters in West Lake Hills, 85% 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.
