“I really hate to leave super positive feedback for Bonnie because she will get too busy for me (LOL!) but she is AMAZING!! Scout loves her and does really well at her house. She is super responsive and sends me pictures of him every day. It makes me enjoy my trips more because I know he is being well-cared for.”

“Marci is great! I’m a travel nurse and I got stuck at work a snowstorm. Marci was super accommodating and my pups were well cared for while I was away. Thanks!”

“Joanne is the second individual that I’ve allowed to puppy sit my frenchie zara. Zara had a blast with joanne and she did not want to leave. She was very well-cared for and updates were sent to my cell phone. Joanne is a stellar level dog sitter. 5 stars!!”


“If you're seeking a warm, caring and attentive home for your special furry friend, Lesa is the place for you! She was warm and inviting to our entire family when we arrived and provided a very comfortable stay for our Shih Tzu, Li'l Rhody, while we spent a weekend with friends on our recent road trip to Arkansas. She sent several photos of him throughout the weekend which was a nice touch, especially with our 2 children wondering how he was doing away from them. We highly recommend Lesa and know she will provide the peace of mind and caring environment we experienced for you and yours.”

“Karina and her whole family was wonderful to our Wooki. All the health problems he has being so old, it’s very hard to leave him. After he has met her, he was excited to see we had come back. He did not stress out like he used to when staying somewhere. He felt at home and we could tell by his pictures that was sent to us he was happy. Karina went beyond being so loving and tending to him. I can never say enough how all this made us feel knowing he was being so well cared for. We really got to enjoy our trip. Thank you sweet lady, and all your family.”

About: I have taken care of many rescues puppies to seniors that need extra care throughout my life. From my own to friends and families pets as well.

“Christine was wonderful. My Yorkie Shuri got very comfortable - fast. Me and my husband were pleased with her first over night stay. We booked her again for a 3 night stay while we head out of town. I would highly recommend you use Christine to host your pup.”

“Karla was great! She did a great job watching Chance and everything went smoothly. It was easy to meet up with her to pick up and drop off Chance. She sent me updates and pictures of him while I was away. Overall, it was a good experience and I would definitely have Karla watch Chance again in the future!”

“Salma was so great sweet with our pup and so easy to work with .She was kind and patient when we needed her to be. She sent us multiple pictures, daily during a long stay. We will definitely rebook if in the area again.”

“Jessica took such good care of my spoiled pup who is never away from me. It’s nice to know Bella has a place to stay if we need one. Being able to stay and sit with people on the couch and get covered up with her blanky at night and sleep next to people is much better than being boarded somewhere.”

“Taylor B. did well with our fur baby! She sent lots of photos, videos, and updates. It was our first time being away overnight from our pup and knowing that he had one on one care made us feel better! I highly recommend Taylor B.”

“We were very comforted leaving our dog, Jack, with Jennifer and her family. He had a long 10 day stay with them. We loved the pictures she sent and the update as to how his day was going. We felt he was well taken care of and that was a huge deal for us. Thank you Jennifer for taking such good care of our fur baby!”


About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for high-needs, large-breed dogs. I’ve owned and managed a giant breed with specific behavioral and care needs, so I understand how to handle dogs that require extra patience, structure, and attention. I am very comfortable reinforcing training, including basic commands, boundaries, and consistency with routines. I know how important it is to maintain the rules and expectations you’ve set for your pet, not undo them. I am also attentive to each animal’s individual personality and needs, whether that means providing calm companionship, structured activity, or simply making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits into my routine primarily on weekends, when I have the time to provide focused, attentive care. I already structure my days around caring for my own pets, so I am very comfortable maintaining feeding schedules, routines, and giving pets the attention they need. Because I work full time and attend school during the week, my availability is limited to weekends for dogs but can do daily cat drop-ins. During that time, I am reliable, consistent, and able to give pets quality care through drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and check-ins. I tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and needs. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on maintaining consistency with feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, exercise, and any specific instructions you provide. I also make sure pets get attention and interaction, not just the basics, so they feel comfortable while you’re away. In my home, I provide a structured but relaxed environment. My own dog follows a routine with scheduled feeding, playtime, and rest, including crate time for sleeping, so I am comfortable maintaining similar routines for other dogs if needed. Dogs in my care have time to be active, as well as space to rest and feel secure. I am also experienced with administering daily medications and am comfortable caring for pets with additional needs. Whether I am in your home or mine, my goal is to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alexander
I am so happy I found Rebecca! I’ve not had good experiences with boarding in the past and it had caused me to become prisoner to my home. I was gone for a week and I did not worry about my dog one time. I heard from Rebecca every day with either a picture or a video reassuring me that he was doing okay. There’s not a cost you can put on peace, and Rebecca gave me that. I will be using her again and again and again.

Michael was great! My dog was really nervous at drop-off, so I really appreciated Michael sending photos of my pup all settled in. That helped me relax and enjoy my time away. My pup seemed happy and very well cared for at pickup. I would definitely use Michael again in the future.

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.
99% of sitters in Alexander 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 Alexander 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 Alexander.
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 Alexander 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.

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.
