About: We love all pets in our home. We especially favor play time with them at home or even sometimes at the nearby parks. We don't discriminate, we love all pets! I work part time on a flexible schedule, which means lots of time at home to give all pets that extra attention. When I am away, all pets will be separated for security. I always make sure to keep pet parents updated with lots of pictures and any other updates. Also come check out where your pets will be staying while you're away. Rest assured your pets will be loved like our own and taken care of like royalty. We have plenty of space to play inside and outside our home and our yard is an acre and a half with 2 separate fenced areas.
About: I’m known for my calm, trustworthy presence, strong communication, and a genuine love for animals. I pay close attention to each pet’s habits, health, and personality, ensuring they feel safe, stimulated, and loved while you’re away. From administering medications to offering structured playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection, I treat every pet like part of my own family. Pet care is not just a job for me — it’s a passion and a commitment I’ve integrated into my daily routine. Every morning starts with a focus on the pets I’m looking after. I begin by checking in on their needs, making sure they’re fed, hydrated, and ready for their morning walk or play session. Depending on the pet, we may work on training exercises, engage in fun enrichment activities, or simply enjoy some cuddle time. Safe & Clean Environment: I ensure all spaces are pet-proofed—no toxic plants, secure trash, and no accessible hazards. Pets have access to clean water, comfortable rest areas, and a climate-controlled environment. Routine & Structure: I follow your pet’s usual feeding, walking, and medication schedule so their stay feels familiar and stress-free. Supervision: I never leave pets unsupervised for long periods and monitor behavior to ensure they’re adjusting well. Comfort & Enrichment: Playtime, walks, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection are included based on your pet’s personality and needs.
“Amazing! She took in my fur baby last minute and took good care of him! He was excited to see her again on day too and he came back super tired from so much play time! I would def book again!”
“I love having Alyssa as a sitter. She has watched my personal dogs and many of my fosters. She is so kind and reliable. She’s so flexible and has even accepted some of my last minute requests. I’m going to definitely keep booking her in the future. My dogs always come home tired and well taken care of.”

I do my best to accommodate each family’s schedule and keep pets on the routine they’re used to. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

I follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), crate routines, and any special instructions. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“My dogs had such a blast, once we got home they knocked out. They loved running around and being crazy dogs. I love that Kris was with them the entire time to play and keep them company. I would highly recommend her for a sitter, and when needed we will use her sitting services again”
About: About Me Animals have always been a central part of my life. I don’t pet sit for the money, but because I genuinely enjoy meeting other animals and their owners. I grew up in a home with three dogs and six cats at the same time, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I have experience with rescue animals, including those who may be anxious, reactive, or need extra patience and understanding. Creating a calm, safe, and reassuring environment is always my priority. I understand that being away from their owners can be stressful for pets. I focus on maintaining routines, providing consistent care, and giving them the attention and affection they need to feel secure. Whether your pet is high-energy, shy, or somewhere in between, I adapt my approach to what works best for them. As a Registered Nurse, I’m confident handling pets with medical needs, administering medications, and recognizing when something isn’t quite right. Your pet’s health and safety are always taken seriously. My Home I have a 2-year-old son, dog and a cat in our home, so any visiting pets should be comfortable around young children and other animals. I’m attentive to introductions and boundaries to ensure everyone stays safe and stress-free. What You Can Expect - Reliable, attentive care tailored to your pet - Experience with anxious, rescue, and reactive animals - Comfort with medical needs and special care instructions - Clear communication and updates while you’re away - A calm, structured, and caring environment Your pet will be treated with the same level of care and respect I give my own.

We have a fenced yard with grass. Pets are allowed in all spaces and left only outside alone if they want to be, otherwise they are where we are. In your home, I will abide by all requests and ensure all needs are taken care of.

“Leo and Clarie are literally life savers! They are the sweetest and most gentle spirited people ever!

Sasha had a great time playing and they understood how puppies can be puppies . I would definitely recommend their services to anyone !”

She cared for my small Maltipoo (Lumi) very well and her German Shepherd (Uma) was gentle and kind to Lumi. Katrina was very open to changes in my drop-off and pick-up times. That is very much appreciated. You won't be disappointed with her services.”

About: Hi, I'm Kassy! I have been pet sitting for over 10 years. I have a house with a very large backyard. I'm okay with having them indoor and/or outdoor. If you have any special requests, please feel free to let me know. For services that require your dog coming to my home, I ask that they’re friendly and not aggressive or territorial at all and get along with children. I’m open to taking them out on walks at no additional charge if it’s something you’re interested in. I try to keep their daily routine as normal as possible while you’re away. I'm comfortable with setting up meet and greets if you'd like. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your babies! :) Most days I'm home all day and can take them for walks if that’s something you’d want. If I do leave it’s for a couple of hours here and there. I have a fenced yard and cameras on property. They can be in and out throughout the day as needed. I only care for one client at a time, not several different at once so they won’t be exposed to other animals

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Alvarado
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 211 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Alvarado. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Alvarado commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 NM 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.
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 .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 211 sitters in Alvarado, 93% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Don't let your 9-to-5 stop you from being a great pet parent. When you're heading to work, drop off your beloved pet with a loving dog sitter near you. Your dog will get the love and care they're used to at home, and you'll get photo updates and the peace of mind that comes from finding great care for your pet.

We know you love your pets, but you can't always be there, which is where our loving sitters come in.
