“Took great care of our Daisy! They even washed her bed for us because she had an accident, which we really appreciated. They allowed us to pick Daisy a little early and accepted to watch her on short notice. We were given updates and are overall very satisfied with our experience.”
“Nancy was hands down the BEST dog sitter we have had. I was beyond impressed with how well Maverick was cared for. She sent several updates throughout the day and was amazing at communicating. Maverick was so spoiled and came home so happy. We will 100% be using Nancy again, I cannot recommend her enough!”
“Our experience with Bianca was amazing. I knew from day one Luna was in good hands with her. She kept us in the know and sent pictures. Luna had a great time and was well cared for given lots of love and attention. Communication with Bianca was smooth and prompt always. We had last minute changes to our booking and she worked with us to extend Luna an extra day. If I have to leave our sweet girl again somewhere Bianca will be the first in my list to contact! I recommend her over and over again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alton
Era la primera vez que dejábamos a Simba con alguien por medio de esta aplicación, pero desde que mi esposo lo llevó nos sentimos muy tranquilos. Tienen un área amplia y segura, y se nota que Brandon y su familia quieren mucho a los perritos. Nos comentaron que Simba se portó muy bien y regresó muy contento. Definitivamente los recomiendo; sus mascotas estarán en muy buenas manos. 🐶🤍
Nancy was such a great sitter for my beloved pup. She kept me informed on how the stay was going and sent several updates and pictures. It really helped ease my anxiety about leaving my puppy with a new sitter. We will absolutely be using Nancy for our sitter needs in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Alton on Rover is $33.3 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 118 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Alton. 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.
100% of Alton 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 Alton 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 Alton 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 Alton.
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 Alton 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 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.
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.
