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: Caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember — and it never gets old. I’m a proud pet parent to three dogs of my own, including a Rottweiler and two senior Chihuahuas, so I understand firsthand what it means to trust someone with your fur family. As a U.S. veteran, I bring discipline, reliability, and a calm presence to every situation — and your pets will feel that energy too. Whether your pet needs high energy playtime or a calm, cozy environment to decompress, I adapt to what they need. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs — including anxious and senior pets. Communication is a priority for me. I provide regular updates so you always know how your baby is doing. Life happens — just keep me in the loop and we’ll figure it out together. Your pet will be loved, safe, and ready to come back. Pet care is my full-time focus. Your pets have my undivided attention throughout the day — whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just quality cuddle time on the couch. I am extremely flexible and available for last minute bookings. Whatever you need, don’t hesitate to reach out — I’m here for it. My home is a safe, welcoming environment for pets of all sizes and breeds. My fully fenced backyard features privacy fencing with locks on both gates, so your pet has plenty of room to run and play securely. I am a pet parent myself to three dogs — a Rottweiler and two senior Chihuahuas — so I understand the needs of dogs across the size and age spectrum. Every pet that comes through my door is treated like family. I also have a toddler at home, so I do conduct meet and greets prior to booking to ensure a smooth, stress free experience for everyone — your pet, my family, and yours.
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.
About: I am a veterinary assistant, animals are my passion. I have been volunteering at animal shelters since a young age so I am very experienced with all different breeds and temperaments. I’ve also been having dogs and cats my whole life. I have a nice blasting AC to keep the animals cool and doggy pool outside if they enjoy swimming. If they do not know how to swim, I offer lessons, however if worried about drowning I can easily accommodate by fencing off the pool area. I have a German shepherd mix that loves other animals and people. He keeps me busy so you can catch me at the dog park, on a nice long hike/walk, or commuting to the lake to hear the waves and swim with my dogs. I work part time and going to school from home, thankfully my boyfriend helps me in between so I’m pretty much always available for bookings with the extra help. I start my days pretty early and end early but late on weekends. I have a large fenced in yard. My dog is free roaming all day and sleep inside with me at night. However I can crate during feeding times if necessary. I have an extra crate and plenty of snacks, treats, and toys. I am an army veteran, I can offer special discounts for other vets or military just message me about it. Due to the open availability in my schedule I pretty much spend all day everyday with my furry little friends. I fit them into my daily life's and cater to them as much as I possibly can. I wake up pretty early usually, as soon as I get up I take all the dogs out to the restroom outside. I clean their bowls and refill the gravity water bowl. Then I separate all dogs with their specific bowls and make their food, give them the first meal of the day as I cook my own breakfast. Then I take them on a nice walk to start the day off right in nature and walk off the food. I spend a couple hours doing my schoolwork from home then play with the dogs outside to get them a little tired for dinner. I feed the dogs again, let them outside for a couple hours under my supervision and then bring them all back inside when it's time for bed most days.
“Morgan is fantastic!!! I couldn’t feel more at peace every time she watches my pup. She treats him like he’s her own and he has taken to her like a second 🐶 mom 🥰 thank you for loving him every time he’s with you 😀”
About: About Me Animals have always been a central part of my life. 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 are new to El Paso so looking for furry friends to fill my time before starting work late June. After that, I will work full time during the day M-F. In the evenings and on the weekends, we take a family walk around the neighborhood every day. 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.

“Ilyana was once again a life saver. We had someone cancel on us last minute and it was our wedding day. So I was scrambling to find a solution and Ilyana was more than willing to help. We are so grateful and appreciative of Ilyana taking great care of Zoe!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my dedication to providing personalized care for each dog. I have experienced care for puppies, ensuring they learn good behaviors early on.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Alvarado
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 204 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 204 sitters in Alvarado, 92% 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.
