“Barrett was an amazing dog sitter! Our dogs had a wonderful time going on walks and swimming in his pool. We were sent photos and updates throughout our trip. It was very comforting knowing my dogs were with someone who really took care of them. Thank you again!”

“This was my first time to use Rover. I was pretty skeptical that I would find the right person for the long stay needed. HOWEVER, I could NOT have found a better match than Stephanie and her family! From the start, she made the process so easy. I met with her before the drop off and immediately felt at ease, a weight lifted off my shoulders. Knowing my dogs would be left in good care made me feel so much better about leaving my them behind. They had never stayed with anyone nor at an unfamiliar home before this stay. Stephanie kept me updated and sent pics daily. I never worried about how they were doing or felt uncomfortable about them while I was away. After my pick up, I was sure my dogs would be excited to see me after a week of being away. BUT that was not the case, it was as if they were disappointed to be home with me after that stay!! I could tell, my dogs were treated very well and enjoyed the care Stephanie and her family provided my dogs. Although it took awhile for my dogs to come around after being home, it made me happy to know they felt comfortable with Stephanie! I highly recommend Stephanie for any pet services.”

About: We’ve cared for many dogs over our lifespan- combined of 36 years. From small to big, high energy to very little, our house is the perfect fit. We’ve crate trained and potty trained all our dogs and no longer use a crate for any purpose however still have one available. We go on several walks a day around our neighborhood and have a spacious lanai patio and fenced in backyard with a pool. With part time hours and someone always typically being home, the only time we are out are for sports Saturday mornings for a max of 2 hours. Pets are always welcome to join us if appropriate as we are always at a pet friendly park and our pup loves to join. Morning and afternoon walks are a must as we are an active family and spend our days outside anyway. We have a fenced yard and a lanai in our backyard. We have gates for indoor if needed as well as a crate. Water bowls are available all over the house!

About: Mi hija Saraluna despertó en mí un amor muy especial por los perros desde que nació, hace 14 años. Desde entonces, he descubierto lo bonito que es conectar con ellos, conocer su personalidad y hacerlos sentir parte de la familia. Soy mamá y tengo una naturaleza cariñosa, paciente y protectora. Esa misma dedicación llevo al cuidado de los perritos: respeto su ritmo, presto atención a sus señales y procuro que se sientan queridos, acompañados y seguros. En mi casa, tu perrito será un integrante más de nuestro hogar. Tenemos una casa amplia donde podrá descansar, explorar y sentirse cómodo. Me gusta conocer sus rutinas, sus costumbres y esos pequeños detalles que lo hacen feliz para que su estancia sea lo más familiar posible. También tengo una perrita y sé la confianza que implica dejar a un ser tan querido al cuidado de otra persona. Por eso, mi compromiso es sencillo: cuidar al tuyo con el mismo amor y atención que quisiera para la mía. Trabajo desde casa, lo que me permite acompañar a los perritos y estar pendiente de sus necesidades durante el día y la noche. Cuido a los perritos únicamente en mi casa, donde los recibo como parte de la familia. Les ofrezco cariño, atención, respeto por sus horarios y actividades y les proveo un espacio para sentirse cómodos, tranquilos y bienvenidos.

“Mike took awesome care of our boy Bleu while we went on vacation for a week. Bleu is just a puppy and I was very apprehensive about leaving him but we met Mike and his boy Shadow and we’re immediately at ease. Mike sent me pictures and texts, we all looked forward to our daily updates. It really put my mind at ease knowing Bleu was in great hands. I definitely plan on using Mike again!!”

“Elisa is Amazing !!! We Love her :) She took care of our Golden Retriever & Golden Doodle several times over these last several months, while my wife and I were traveling. Our pups adore her & would pull me into her house with excitement, every time they went for a visit! Our doodle can be a bit temperamental if she isn't getting enough attention - she never had an issue at Elisa's. We always knew that our babies were well cared for & we very much appreciate that ! I definitely recommend Elisa & would give more than 5 stars if it were possible... Thank you !”

“Ross was very communicative, sent pictures and videos so I was really calmed that they were in good hands, At first I was concerned that maybe my dogs were gonna be too much but Ross gave me the confidence that he could handle both of my dogs plus his dogs and another dog he was sitting. I was mostly concerned for my little dog Remi, she is a little grumpy with people at first but Ross had the patience, when we picked them up Remi was best friends with Ross, so that says a lot 🫶🏻🥹, also they were really tired when we came home from a lot of playing so I know they had a good time. I totally recommend Ross to leave your fur babies.”

About: Pet care isn’t a hobby for me—it’s my main job—so my time and attention are fully focused on the dogs I care for. I understand how important trust and reliability are when leaving your pet with someone else. My goal is to create loving environment where your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is my primary job and my schedule is fully dedicated to the dogs I watch. This allows me to give each dog consistent attention, care, and supervision in a safe and loving environment. Whether your dog is staying overnight in your home or boarding with me, they’ll receive consistent care, supervision, and plenty of love throughout the day and night. I’m able to stick closely to your dog’s routine with meals, walks, playtime, and bedtime, helping them feel comfortable and at home.

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Alva

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Alva is $31 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $36 per night. On Rover, 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.

There are 684 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Alva. About 94% of Alva sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. 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.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
