“The family was so sweet to Cody and he obviously had a wonderful time with them! We loved getting the updates and pictures while we were away. We would trust Houda, Fawzi and their children with our dog anytime!”
“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!”
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.
“Eileen has always been wonderful with Neo! I have left Neo under Eileen’s care for more than three times now. Neo requires extra attention due to her occasional seizures and specialized diet for the same, and Eileen took perfect care of her. Eileen quickly responded to messages and kept me updated via text and pictures of Neo. Neo came back happy, and we will definitely be using Eileen again!”
“Trisha took wonderful care of my 8 y.o. Lab. He came home from a 3 night stay very happy and seemed like he had a nice time in her home. Great communication, easy pickup/dropoff, sent pics etc. Will use her again!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Sant made the entire experience so easy and stress-free! Before boarding Lumo for 10 days, we had an initial meet-and-greet where Sant walked me through where Lumo would be staying, playing, and spending his time. Being able to see the environment beforehand gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel comfortable leaving Lumo in Sant’s care. Throughout the stay, Sant consistently sent photos and videos, which I really appreciated. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and I always felt comfortable reaching out with questions, knowing Sant was equally proactive in keeping me updated. Since this was Lumo’s first time staying with Sant, communication was especially important in making the experience a success, and Sant absolutely delivered. I couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience! I’m so grateful to have found Sant and plan to continue using him as my go-to boarding sitter for Lumo. I highly recommend Sant to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and caring person to look after their dog!”
“Bella is the love of my life. She is my first and only baby. She has had some medical challenges in the past where we almost lost her. She’s stayed in kennels before when we’ve gone on vacation and always came back trembling and scared. With Shawna, she wags her tail and runs right up to her to stay! So grateful we found her.”
“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!”
“Dylan was fantastic for our first Rover stay! Quick replies, a same-day meet & greet, and a steady stream of photos, videos, and honest updates. He even slept on the couch so Franklin wouldn't be lonely. Clear communication and super flexible. Highly recommend!”
“Best Rover experience that I've had to date! Angela, Randall, and family were wonderful. We received a lot of pictures while we were gone and the dogs looked so happy. The backyard is perfect for fur babies, and they received a lot of exercise on wonderful hikes! Our dogs were gassed when we got home and slept like babies. I will definitely book again!”
“We were forced to cancel Newton’s 7 might stay with Peter in June 2021 but hope to book him again later this year. We know that Newton is left in capable caring hands when he stays with Peter, and when we pick him up he is a relaxed happy puppy!”
“Liam and his wife took great care of our dog for over a week. This was first time our dog had been away from us and first time using this site. Shadow was well taken care of. Almost to good because the first day we got her back she seemed to be missing her babysitters. I will definitely use Liam again without hesitation. We received pictures daily and Shadow didn’t even loose any weight. Most dogs normally don’t eat for few days after being left but she adjusted just fine.”
“This was my second time booking with Kamila and I was very happy with how it went! Her expertise with animals is exceptional and I could tell my dog had a wonderful time. She administered his prescription diet and medication perfectly, and took great care of him. She even got a little staircase so he and other dogs can safely get on the couch without hurting themselves! I will definitely book with her again in the future.”
“Susan was our first Rover sitter, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. After meeting a few sitters, our dog immediately connected with Susan—and since Mochi only gives cuddles to very special people, I knew she was the one. We boarded Mochi with Susan for a few nights while we were away, and she was incredibly attentive to her needs. She took her on daily walks, played lots of ball with her—Mochi is a serious ball-aholic—and, most importantly, loved her like her own. She also sent updates and photos, which meant so much to us. At one point, I even joked that she shouldn’t spoil Mochi too much or she’d go into Susan withdrawal when she got home… and honestly, she did the next day! Susan is an absolute gem. We highly recommend her without hesitation and are so grateful she made Mochi’s first Rover stay such a happy and memorable one.”
“Stefanie was great! I reached out last minute due to other care falling through due to my dog having a double ear infection & balance issues. Stefanie was happy to help and was even able to administer medication & ear flushing/drops. She sent several pictures and updates while we were gone. I would definitely recommend!”
“Patrick was an amazing host for our dog, Scooby. He put me at ease in our pre-host meet up by walking me through his approach and showing me his beautiful backyard and wonderful dog. During Scooby’s stay I received daily pictures and texts to reassure me the Scooby was having a great time. We drove 40 mins to have Patrick host Scooby and It was definitely worth the commute.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Alamo Oaks is $75
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alamo Oaks
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!
Jennifer and her family took great care of Yomi over the week and when we missed our flight home, she was able to take care of Yomi an extra day which we were very grateful for. Yomi looks like in great condition and we got daily updates and pics from her. Thanks so much and we will definitely be back again!
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!!
For our first experience with Rover, we couldn’t be more impressed by Marisa. From the moment she met our dog Bailey, we could tell our girl would be in great hands. It was immediately evident that Marisa loves dogs and that Bailey would be well taken care of while we were away. Marisa was proactive in sending us updates and in every photo, Bailey was active or cuddling, and looked so happy playing with Marisa’s dog Henri. We are so appreciative of Marisa and would absolutely recommend her to others feeling anxious about needing to leave their beloved pup!
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!

The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Oaks 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 Oaks 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 Oaks.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alamo Oaks. On Rover:
- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Alamo Oaks 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
