“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!”

“We had our dog, Athena, stay with James and family for a week and we couldn’t give him higher praise! From his communication, pictures and updates to his incredible property and backyard, we knew our dog was in great care. He arranged a meeting even before so Athena could check out where she would be staying and we got a sense of the care and love that he has for doing this. His children are kind and gentle and loved having our dog stay with them. James is open, communicative and compassionate and we are so grateful to have found him! The highest praise to James and his family and we will definitely be using his service again! Thanks for everything!”

He just came back very calm ☺️ Eun also sent me pictures and updates during his stay, so nice because we really miss him when we’re away. Highly recommend Eun!”

About: I have been privileged to share over three decades of my life in the companionship of dogs and cats. Whether your pet needs walks or playtime while you’re away for the day, or a safe space for overnight care, I would be happy to love and pamper them as if they were my own. I have experience with pets of all ages and am comfortable administering oral and injectable medications, if needed. I also volunteer with NorCal GSP Rescue and have experience with post-surgery care. . I work from home M-F and have flexibility in my schedule. I am open to early morning or late night walks or drop-in visits in the event that you have an atypical work week. I have two pets in my home, a 12 yr old German Shorthaired Pointer (Sophie) and a 7 yr old Sphynx cat (Zelda). Both are friendly with other animals.

About: We have spent years loving our own dogs, and honestly, we treat them better than we treat humans. :-) When your pup stays with us, they aren’t just being watched, they are joining a household, dedicated entirely to belly, rubs, naps, and maximum comfort. Since we have two little friendly dogs and a cat of our own, your pet will have a built-in social club and will never feel lonely. Since I already work out of the house and care for my own pets all day, adding your dog to the mix will fit seamlessly into our daily routine. I am constantly here to open doors, handout treats, and provide supervision making your dogs care, a natural extension of my everyday life. Our yard is completely fenced in with tons of room for your pup to burn off energy, sniff around and safely enjoy themselves. It’s a built-in dog park.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for furry friends, and I’m excited to help your pup feel happy and loved while you’re away. Though I recently had to be separated from my own dog, I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, so I know how to give them attention, comfort, and fun. Whether it’s a quick visit, a long walk, or overnight care, I treat every dog like a part of the family. I’d love to meet your pup and provide the care, attention, and companionship they deserve! I work from home in a pet-friendly community, so your dog will get plenty of walks, cuddles, and attention all day. I have a flexible schedule if provided with enough notice. I prioritize safety, trust, and a happy environment for every dog. Since I don’t currently have any pets, your pup will have my full attention! I provide walks, cuddles, and supervision in a secure, pet-friendly space. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your rules and routines exactly, treating your dog and your home with the same love and respect I would my own.

About: Dogs are a true source of happiness for me and hold a very special place in my heart. I love life, nature, and all living beings, but I have always shared an especially deep connection with dogs. Dogs tend to feel comfortable with me very quickly. I bring a warm, playful energy while also providing the calm guidance, patience, and consistency that help them feel safe and relaxed. Some of my greatest teachers have been the dogs who have shared their lives with me: Alaska, Toby, Polly, and now my beloved Siberian Husky, Coquito, whom I rescued from the streets of Mexico. Each one has taught me something different about trust, loyalty, patience, resilience, and unconditional love. They were never simply dogs in my life—I became part of their stories, just as they became an important part of mine. I also independently created and ran a small dog rescue in Mexico. While working a regular job, I dedicated the rest of my time—and much of my personal income—to helping dogs living on the streets. Without sponsors or outside financial support, I provided rescued dogs with food, veterinary treatment, vaccinations, spaying and neutering, companionship, and, above all, genuine love. I still treasure many photos of the dogs I rescued and cared for throughout that chapter of my life. Over the years, I have also become someone dog owners trust when they have questions about everyday care or canine behavior. Friends, acquaintances, and even people in Mexico continue to reach out to me because they know how much experience I have with dogs and feel comfortable asking for my perspective. These experiences have taught me how to understand and care for dogs with different personalities, histories, and needs. I deeply respect each dog’s individual nature and believe every one of them deserves to feel protected, understood, and loved. When your pup is with me, they will never be treated as simply another booking. I feel completely confident in the care I can offer because being deeply devoted to dogs—caring for them, protecting them, and sharing my time with them—is an essential part of who I am. This is not simply a service I provide; it is one of the greatest joys and deepest motivations of my life. I will follow your dog’s normal routine, give them attentive and personalized care, keep you updated with photos, and treat them with patience, responsibility, playfulness, and wholehearted love. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease—and for your dog to feel safe, understood, happy, deeply valued, and truly at home. I’m available for dog walks Monday through Friday after 6:00 p.m. On weekends, I can also welcome dogs into my home for overnight stays on Friday and Saturday, with pickup on Sunday. I genuinely enjoy spending my weekends with dogs—taking them on walks, playing with them, and giving them plenty of companionship, attention, and affection throughout their stay. I care for furry guests in my apartment, where I live with my 44-pound husky, Coquito. My home is clean, comfortable, and well-lit, and it has a balcony with a high, secure railing for safety. My furry guests always have access to fresh water and are fed according to their usual schedule and their family’s instructions. I give them plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and companionship so every pup feels safe, included, and cared for as part of the family.

Christy took excellent care of my senior dachshund, Leia, while I was on a long weekend trip! It’s always nerve-wracking to leave your dog with a new person for the first time, but Christy went above and beyond to provide constant care for my girl and ensure that she (and I) were comfortable with her staying there. She provided peace of mind for me knowing that Leia was well taken care of while I was on my trip. She sent me photos and updates often so I knew how Leia was doing. I can’t recommend her enough! We’ll definitely be back again sometime soon for future trips.

Jessica always goes above and beyond to make everything work out, and Kona truly loves spending time with her family. Between swimming in their pool, getting lots of snuggles, and being treated like part of the family, Kona is always in great hands! We also love getting pictures or a quick update each day while we’re away. It gives us such peace of mind knowing Kona is happy, loved, and so well cared for. Couldn’t recommend her more!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Alamo on Rover is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $87 per night. 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 6,677 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 routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

93% of sitters in Alamo can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Alamo home-away-from-home, 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .

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.
