Dog Boarding in Alva, FL

“My dogs had the best time on their vacation with Fabiana! She sent soo many pictures and communicated throughout their time away. I'm sure they will miss all the fun they had!”

“Kelsie was very accommodating and responded quickly to messages. Kelsie took great care of Finnley. She and her family took him on walks and played ball with Finn. They have a beautiful setting totally fenced in where he could wander around exploring. I received picture updates daily. My priorities for sitter to be at home all day with fenced in backyard and a Very nice family was exactly what I was looking for. Kelsie had all this and more. Definitely will use them again. Thank you for everything.”

“Every time Murphy is with John I know he’s in the best hands. Sends frequent updates. This time Murphy was sick with some GI troubles. John updates regularly was comfortable caring for my baby the way I would. Would give higher rating if possible. Thank you John!!!”

“There are no words to describe how more than 100% satisfied we were with Tom & Lyndsay, they are very nice & caring people. We went to their house before our booking for a meet & greet with our boy Ralphie, & we knew immediately they were our new dog sitters. Their house is extremely clean & beautiful, & completely set up to accommodate our beloved fur children. They do not believe in using pet cages (as most pet sitters do) & they treat them like their own dogs. We felt so at ease knowing our boy was in the care of loving hands. They sent us messages & pictures showing us our boy relaxing on the sofa as if he were at home, & I'm sure he felt right at home as well. I highly recommend them if you are looking to leave your fur child in the very best hands of loving care. Thank you very much Tom & Lyndsay, you guys are truly the very best of the best!”

“Francisca took excellent care of my dog, Cash. She was very attentive and clearly cares about the animals she watches. I especially appreciated that she sent me regular picture updates, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Cash looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I highly recommend Francisca to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”

“Craig took great care of our fur baby. It was his first time away from home. He sent lots of pictures to keep us informed. Our fur baby had fun playing with Craig’s dogs and came home happy. If needed we will call on Craig again.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover, my whole life. With my background in the Vet field and most of my time as a kennel manager, my prior history, ensures the safety and care of your fur baby. I also have pets of my own so every day I ensure that not only my pets are taken care of but yours as well. I have several family members and friends that only trust me with their pets. I have 2 seniors pets of my own and understand the difficulties that come along with it. I’m very knowledgeable on keeping logs of medication and when they are administered and ensuring they get all the bathroom breaks and play time possible. Currently for the summer time, I am home most of the week and can ensure a daily routine. While pet sitting if I do have to leave I limit my time out and I ensure there is entertainment to help with anxiety such as a radio or TV playing with a cartoon and or music videos of wildlife. This has had a positive experience for many pets I take care of. I never want to leave a pet alone for long. I have a large fenced in yard, I have three very friendly dogs (one large and two small senior dogs) they can keep your babies company. I also have crates for my own pets and if necessary for yours as well.

“My Dog Sophie loved staying at Xiao's; She received a great deal of personalized care and attention I almost felt like she didn't want to come back home. ?”

“Provided last minute care for my two dogs. Had no issues (or health issues) and loved the pictures I got of them. Will definitely return to them for future boardings, my dogs were in heaven!”

Kayla S.

“Reggie had a great time staying with Krista! Krista was happy to do a meet & greet before, so I felt comfortable. She kept me updated with daily pictures and was happy to keep him for a few extra hours as my flight was delayed. She was so easy to work with and very responsive. I would recommend her to anyone!”

“5 stars all around for Johnny! Our dog, Tony, was so happy and thrived in Johnny's care. It's an absolute bonus that Johnny is extremely active so he was able to run with our dog on a daily basis and wear Tony out. Tony continued his routine and flourished at Johnny's home with his dog, Vanna (such a wonderful dog as well). We are delighted that we found Johnny and it went so well that we immediately booked him for another 1.5 week boarding. Johnny provided frequent updates which created peace of mind for our family. Tony even came home with a bath and some tasty treats. It was a fantastic experience. Excellence all around!”

“Kelsey was a great pet sitter. She sent pictures, videos, and updates a couple times daily which helped ease my worries about my 2 chocolate labs. She has a huge fenced in yard which allowed my dogs to get plenty of outdoor time. I would definitely use Kelsey again. Thanks for everything!!”

Tina R.

“Tia was great! She watched our 3 dogs (Husky mix, Lab mix, and Dachshund) while we were gone on vacation over a week. I received updates and photos during their stay letting me know my dogs were doing good. Tia having a fenced in backyard was a huge plus for me since my dogs are potty trained, I refuse to have my dogs in a kennel all day. If you want your pets to feel at home while you are away then reach out to Tia for sure, thanks Tia!”

“Alain did a great job with a last minute boarding request on Thanksgiving week. He sent several videos daily of our sweet girl. We really appreciated everything. She came home very happy like she enjoyed her stay. Thank you!”

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with this sitter. We had to make last-minute arrangements for our senior dog, Lola, while we were vacationing in Sanibel after discovering that our condo no longer allowed pets. Lola is highly anxious, and leaving her is always stressful for us, so finding someone we could trust was incredibly important. From the very beginning, communication was exceptional. We received daily updates and photos, which gave us tremendous peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation knowing Lola was in great hands. Not only did she take excellent care of Lola, but she also graciously allowed us to visit and take Lola for walks during the week. She made sure Lola got plenty of exercise, socialization with other dogs, and lots of love and attention. It was clear that she genuinely cared for her. The biggest testament to the care she provided came on the last day. As we drove away, Lola actually watched her new friend leave and whined for her—a reaction we've never seen before. That told us everything we needed to know about the bond they had formed. If we ever return to Sanibel, she will be our first call. Every Rover sitter should strive to provide this level of care, communication, and compassion. We are beyond grateful for how wonderfully she treated our Lola. Thank you!!!”
