“Goose stayed with Patrick for 26 days and he loved it. Patrick sent us multiple photos and videos every day showing what they were doing and when goose was going to bed. Patrick took goose on daily walks which I just know he loved. This was the first time I’ve ever been away from goose and Patrick made it a wonderful experience. Definitely will be booking with him again!!”
“Rochelle was AMAZING! I have a handicap dog, and an older dog. They both stayed a week. I got picture/video updates dailey. Both were very well taken care of, and happy to be around some other playmates while at her house. She has the perfect set up for both small and large dogs! We will definitely be back to see her!”
“Marci was really great with our two dogs. They stayed with her for two nights and had a lot of fun. We will definitely be boarding our dogs again with her next time we go out of town.”
“If you had a 10 rating we would give it! Richard and Stephanie took exceptional care of our dogs. They had great communication with us throughout our trip. I can’t say enough great things”
“I have used Rover many, many times and Anthony is by far one of my very favorite sitters. My husband and I were in a pickle (someone else bailed last minute) and Anthony stepped in and did an amazing job! He was friendly, great at communicating, flexible when my plane landed late, sent tons of pics and I could tell Max was well-loved. I will definitely, 100% use Anthony again to take car of Max.”
“Sheila is a true animal lover who took great care of my pups! She is very organized and had plenty of space for my dogs to play and sleep safely. We will definitely use Sheila again! Highly recommended”
“Jill and her husband were wonderful. My dog Mulligan has anxiety issues and he immediately felt comfortable in their home. Jill sent pictures during his stay and you could tell Mulligan was having fun. I would highly recommend Jill if you are looking for care for your pet.”
“Joshua has been absolutely outstanding with my pup! I love that he has his dogs and Seven has gotten along so gracefully with them and to me it’s a vacation for him while I needed a sitter. His constant updates with pictures gave me relief knowing he was in great hands. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Nancy was an MVP taking care of my dog. Nancy was super kind with my dog, she walked my dog as she needed, also my dog was able to stay in Nancy's furniture like the sofa and the bed, my dog enjoys those places. I highly recommend her to sit your pet.”
“Lauren & Justin are so awesome. They they kept me updated daily and sent me at least two pictures a day of my puppy. I am definitely going to book with them again.”
“Newana and her family took great care of Lux. She sent plenty of pictures and updates during his stay and he seemed to have a blast while with them. Thanks again!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Carlos and Jessica! They took such incredible care of my dogs, Dougie and Aggie Sue, while I was away. What I appreciated most was the constant communication; they sent plenty of photos, which gave me such peace of mind knowing my pups were happy and comfortable. My dogs are elderly and have some special needs, including a strict medication routine. I was so impressed with how flawlessly Carlos and Jessica managed everything. It’s such a relief to find sitters who are not only kind and attentive but also capable and responsible with medical needs. I came home to two very happy, well-cared-for dogs. I highly recommend them to anyone, especially those looking for sitters who will treat their pets like family. Thank you both for everything!”
“As always Natalia and her family were amazing with our dogs. One dog developed an infection from a surgery he’d had a couple of weeks before and they helped me with taking him to the emergency vet and helping with his medication. My dogs come home so happy and relaxed after playing with their dogs and being spoiled with hugs. I can’t recommend Natalia enough. Thank you!”
“Dayna was amazing with my boys! She truly treated them as her own! She communicated very well everyday we were away, and was very responsive and friendly! Will definitely use her services again!”
“Blair and Blake are awesome! This was Blu’s 2nd time staying with them and the only complaint I have is that he’s so excited to be there he won’t say bye to me.. no but in all seriousness you can feel at ease if and when you choose them as your dog sitter. 10/10”
“I can't thank Aldrin and Teresa enough for taking such excellent care of my baby, Alphy, on such short notice. I had to make a last-minute day trip to Dallas for a family emergency, and they made the entire process so easy and stress-free. I was a bit concerned that Alphy would be a handful since he’s such a high energy dog, but Aldrin and Teresa are incredibly kind, attentive, and accommodating, and Alphy had a blast playing and burning off all that energy! When I picked him up, he was happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. It’s evident that they truly care for the dogs they watch. I highly recommend Aldrin and Teresa to anyone looking for a reliable, loving place for their pet.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Alvarado on Rover is $32.1 per night (as of July 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 .

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.
96% of Alvarado 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 Alvarado 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 Alvarado 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 Alvarado.
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 Alvarado 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.
