“Great dog sitter! She kept me updated daily, sent lots of pictures, and took very good care of my dogs. I really appreciated the communication and felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Despite my last minute booking, she worked with us and even returned my wallet after I dropped it in the yard. Andrea made a good impression on our dog and assured me she could handle Romy. She was kind enough to send us pictures each day and adjusted furniture to for Romy, as our dog and another ran through the house. We were so impressed that a friend got word and asked for her information so that he could book his husky with her.”
“Wendy was absolutely fantastic with my our dog while I was away for a couple of days. She was incredibly communicative and sent frequent picture and video updates, which gave us total peace of mind. You can genuinely tell how much she loves dogs and cares for them like her own. I highly recommend booking with Wendy she's amazing!!!”
“Amy is great! She loves my dog and set lots of pictures. I’m also happy that she had kids to play with Gus and a crate for him to sleep in. I plan on using her again next month when we go on a little trip.”
“Angela was a blessing! We were gone for 10 days and being new to the area we were so worried about leaving our pups. She took the very best care of our pups and they seemed very happy when we picked them up! We will definitely used Angela again and we highly recommend her. She is very loving and experienced and we could not be more pleased.”
“Leon is our go-to pet sitter! He is great with our animals and provides updates to keep us informed on how they are doing throughout their stay! He was so helpful in extending their stay due to a flight delay, which relieved the stress and worry of getting back home! Thanks Leon!”
“Our fur-baby, Shamrock, immediately felt comfortable with Angelo. When we dropped Shamrock off, we were expecting him to not want to go. However, he was comfortable with Angelo right away. I am a firm believer that dogs know which humans are good ones. Angelo also sent us a daily picture, which we truly appreciated.”
“Our first time using Rover and leaving our Sadie for a long period of time! Michelle was AMAZING!!! She sent pictures of Sadie all week and updates to calm my nerves while we were away! Sadie had the best time and could tell she was well taken care of and loved while we were away! My heart was at ease while in Michelle’s home/care! Thank you for such a wonderful experience!!! You were a blessing!”
“Very responsive. I traveled to Houston and needed a last minute sitter and she responded immediately. She kept me updated on my fur baby the entire time. Nice big yard, which my little one enjoyed . I will for sure be booking with her again. Oh, and she gave my baby a bath and trimmed her nails. Top tier 😊”
“Brownie’s stay with Caitlyn was fabulous! It was our first time to leave her with anyone, and she can be an anxious dog. But when we visited before the stay, we could see that the home’s vibe is very relaxed, and they said she was snuggly with them, and good with the other dogs. We really appreciate such good care!”
“We felt so comfortable leaving Cassie and Ace with Lori. She was so nice and convenient that I didn’t feel like I was a burden. I will definitely be using Lori again!”
“Silvia took great care of Shifu while we were out of town. As pet parents, we couldn't have asked for a better sitter. Silvia went above and beyond, paying attention to Shifu's needs. She was easy to communicate with and very responsive. We loved all the pictures she sent of Shifu; they were lovely and comforting. It was clear to see that our dog was very much at home and relaxed in Silvia's care.”
“We are so grateful we found Synamon and Christopher last second! Our pup loved their family. Ms Synamon was so accommodating to our needs. We almost had a change of plans and she kindly offered to adjust the visit. We will definitely be using her again ?”
“Amazing experience. I did not have any worries while I was away. I also think my dog’s experience here was way better and healthier than the big boarding facilities. Bella came home happy and tired from playing with all her new friends.”
“Our dog, Miso, loves it when he can stay with Elena and her doggies. We fully trust her to take good care of our dog. We have used Elena at least 4 times now and will continue to use her as our pet sitter. We love that she has a large yard for him to run around in.”
“Susan was fantastic in all aspects of Baylie's stay. The meet and greet in the backyard was so much more comfortable for my fur baby to get to know Susan and her pups. Susan truly treated Baylie like one of her own and sent me daily pictures while I was away. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again as she truly is a loving dog person and your dog will be safe and comfortable in her care.”
“Carrie and her husband took fantastic care of our baby. We felt immediately at ease during the meet and great - and equally as impressed when we dropped him off. Carrie is very knowledgeable and even suggested something for us to try with our pet. They went on plenty of walks and she updated us frequently. We picked up a very happy dog. There was never a doubt in our minds that our little Frodo was being well cared for.”
“I have nothing but positive things to say about Ashley. Working with her was absolutely wonderful. Not only is she super responsive with her communication, she was extremely attentive to our dog. She provided constant updates throughout our pup’s stay with her and it was so nice to receive pictures of how he was doing. Would 100% work with her again.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Alvin on Rover is $32.75 per night (as of September 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 .
As of September 2026, there are 1,865 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Alvin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Alvin 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 Alvin 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 Alvin 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 Alvin.
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 Alvin 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.
