“Ulunma and her family were so wonderful with me - and Coco! Coco had a great week and I appreciate that they were so helpful giving Coco her ear medecine for a sudden infection - which healed quickly. Thank you Ulunma - I will be back in touch!!”
About: Reliable and caring dog sitter with over three years of experience supporting multiple families. I’ve provided both in-home care and boarding for extended trips, including feeding, walking, and maintaining routines. As a former dog owner, I understand the importance of trust and treat every pet with patience, attention, and genuine care. I live in a safe neighborhood with access to the Iron Horse trail and a large fenced backyard for dogs to play! I work remotely, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, attention, and flexibility throughout the day. I am very active so I love taking walks and being outside with your animal! I tailor my care to each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment with plenty of attention, playtime, regular walks, and structured feeding schedules. I limit the number of pets to 2 at a time to ensure each dog gets personalized care.
“Thank you Frank and Thao for taking such great care of Louie. We appreciated the pictures and updates and looked like he had so much fun playing with Walter in the big backyard. We were comforted leaving our fur baby in your care and will rebook again!!”
“I booked Houda and her family for my wedding weekend. I have 2 cats and they did so good with them! I loved that they were completely separate from any other animals and I didn’t have to worry about them. They took care of them as they were their own. 10/10 sweetest family!”
“Daisy did an amazing job caring for our dogs while we were out of town. From the moment we picked them up, we could tell they had a great time-they came home happy, sleepy (LOL), and clearly well-loved. They got plenty of play time with Daisy's kids and their dog, which made it feel like a true family environment. Knowing our dogs were treated like part of the family meant everything to us and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Thank you so much Daisy and family for taking such great care of our pups! We highly recommend her and would absolutely book again!”
“Our 5month old yorkie, Bowie, stayed with Barsha and her family for one night while we were out of town. This was his first time away and Barsha communicated and sent photos and videos throughout so that we could see how he was adjusting. Bowie came home exhausted and happy from all the attention he received from the family and other pups staying at the house. Thanks, Barsha!”
“Santiago was very accommodating and made my dogs feel right at home! Kept their schedule consistent and lives near a nice walking path. One thing that really made him stand out is that your dog(s) are the only ones he and his family watch. Where I’ve been to some sitters and they have like 4-5 different dogs there being watched so they can make more money. So with him only watching ours I know they were looked after and it was great to get pics of the pups while traveling. 10/10 would reccomend!”
“Shawna is great! She was flexible with my schedule and needs (and quirks) of my little dog, Aria. More importantly, Aria was loved on, cuddled and treated like the little princess she thinks she is. Thank you Shawna and family!”
“Sameer was great! This was our first time with him so we didn't know what to expect. He took our dog in at short notice, took great care of her, kept us posted on how she was doing, and sent some great pics (clearly my dog was having to much fun). Will definitely use him again!”
“This is Loveleen's second time with Casey and I have no worries at all whenever Loveleen is under Casey's care for doggy day care. I highly recommend Casey's services as he is very communicative and is flexible on drop off and pick up timing. This will not be Loveleen's last time with Casey!”
“Dylan and Tasha was awesome!!! Took great care of Coco and updated us with pictures and videos of how she was doing. Would definitely stay with them again for our future needs!! Thank you guys!!”
“5 Paws! Ruth was absolutely wonderful! She took excellent care of my two dogs, Bear (my 8-year-old Morkie) and Ginger (my 14-year-old Cockapoo). They both have special needs, and Ruth was incredibly attentive, patient, and caring with each of them. She took them on long walks, kept me updated with photos, and every single picture showed two happy, smiling pups who were clearly enjoying themselves and felt completely at ease. That gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Ruth to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Kamila was amazing with our 4 month old GSD puppy! I knew it was going to be a good fit from the moment we did our meet and greet. Buffy immediately took a liking to her and was already feeling at home when we went inside her place. :D She gave us the option to bring Buffy to work with her and she had the best day hanging out and playing with other dogs. At the end of the day she texted to ask if it was okay to give Buffy a bath because of her full day of puppy play and I of course had no objection to that lol. I really appreciate her thoughtfulness and care though in making sure it was okay and also she wanted to make sure Buffy wasn't allergic to shampoo. I didn't even have to ask her to send me updates, she was just on it throughout the day. She is very responsive with texts and calls too. She took Buffy to work with her again on the second day and once again had a full day of fun. When we got home Buffy crated herself and fell asleep for the evening - it was 7pm! She said Buffy is welcome back so we will definitely be returning! Thank you so much, Kamila!”
About: I’ve had pets since I was a kid. Unfortunately, my pet (who was the love of my life) passed away. She was a high-needs dog with extreme separation anxiety and leash aggression, so I have skills to handle that type of pet. From then until now, I have focused on raising my children. I miss the company of animals, and I am wanting to be around them! My kids love animals, so your pet would get lots of cuddles while you’re away! I’m a stay-at-home mom of three. Two of my kids are in school, and the other stays home with me. We have lots of time on our hands to attend to the needs of your pet! If boarding at my home: I have two yards that are completely fenced in. I also have three animal-loving children. We let animals on the furniture. Our home is their home ☺️ If dropping in while you’re away or doing walk: My days are fully open starting at 9am. With kids at home, things get busy again at 5pm. Drop-ins would need to be between those hours. I can also visit again after my kids go down for bed which is usually 7:30pm. My child loves stroller walks, so hopefully your pet does too! Having a pet myself, I know how important it is to make your baby feel as calm and regulated as possible while you’re away. Putting them with a loving and responsible caretaker while you’re away is not a decision taken lightly. I hope I can be that for you and your family.
“Sofia and Jonathan are the nicest family. We were gone for a long time on an international trip to visit family in France. And it was a relief to know that our dog and bunny were well taken care of. They spent 17 days with them and we got plenty of updates and photos. Would use them again and recommend them to anyone.”
“Lexie was well understood and well cared for. I couldn’t have asked for more! Our dog is a tricky one with senior issues but Trisha and her family knew just how to address her difficulties and make her happy and comfortable. She fit right in with their family! I’m very grateful to Trish and I highly recommend her.”
“Awa took great care of our little Cinnamon! It was Cinni’s first time away from home and she can be a bit of a handful, but Awa made her feel safe and happy! I would book with Awa again, she was wonderful!”
About: I’ll take care of your doodle. Big or small I’ll take care of your doodle like my own. Meaning I’ll give them all the attention they need! I’ll walk them, cuddle them, feed them and do all the necessary things dogs love. I’m here to help. I have had dogs all my life and have 2 doodles of my own. We love hikes and walks on the Iron Horse Trail. My schedule is open! I am currently taking care of my two own dogs but can take care of your pet with them. I work from home so they’ll get walked with my 2 dogs. I have two friendly doodles and am open to baby sitting your doodle as well. My pups are the perfect playmates. I live in an apartment near the trail that we walk on at least 2x a day.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alamo
First time with Frank and Thao. They are very dog welcoming and make their home friendly and very inviting for the pls. They have an extra big back yard for lots of fun and dog running which I especially loved. Frank also walked my dog and his kids welcomed my dog into their bedroom at bedtime. Truely the entire family wants to participate.💕 I will definitely use them again!
My dog spent two weeks with Stacey and her family and I highly recommend the attention and care that she and her son gave Nova. I was kept updated with pictures and video and my trip was more relaxed knowing that Nova is comfortable and given a lot of attention. I am recommending Stacey and will definitely use her services when traveling.
Matthew provided excellent care for our two poms while we were away for the weekend. He played with them, took them on walks, sent us pics each day, and communicated with us frequently. Our dogs were so happy and content when we got home, so I know they were well cared for. I would definitely recommend Matthew. He is a true dog lover and a responsible sitter we can trust. Thank you!!
Maddie watched our dog Kora and was amazing! Kora had the absolute best stay - she played, went for walks and had so much love during her time with Maddie! Maddie was also great at communicating with me and is a very caring and loving dog caregiver! Highly recommend!
Jessica and her family provided excellent care for our dog, Vespa, while we were on vacation. In addition to providing the care we had previously discussed, Jessica really stepped up to the plate to care for Vespa's paw after a foxtail was stuck two days before she was dropped off. We received daily messages and pictures, helping reassure us that everything was healing and she was a happy puppy! When we picked her up, we could tell that she was loved and cared for like she was their own. We would definitely recommend Jessica and can't wait for Vespa to stay with her again!
Rachael did an amazing job caring for Steve over the weekend! She sent me lots of photos and kept me posted on what they were up to which I really appreciated. Steve means everything to us and we were worried about leaving him but she made me feel very comfortable that he was in great hands. I would definitely book with Rachael again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Alamo on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 6,708 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Alamo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
92% of Alamo sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Alamo landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Alamo home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Alamo.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Alamo sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
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 CA 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
