About: I have been a dog owner for 8 plus years. Currently I have 4 rescue dogs. Dogs bring me joy and I love their different personalities. I enjoy playing with them, walking and having cuddle time. I currently have older kids that don’t require much time thus available during the week and weekends to help out with pets. My schedule is flexible. I have a large fenced in yard and a doggy door that allows my fur babies to go in and out as they please. I also watch the dogs as they are outside.
“I have found Harveys people!! Angela and her husband are the best!!!! I can now go meet with clients and occasionally do an over night trip knowing my rotten little dog will not be alone!! I am so very happy to have found them!! Thank you Angela!”
About: No special skills, just a guy who loves animals and will help you take care of yours while you're away or need a break. Ive always had a pet in the house for the most part and have always watched friends and family pets often. Figured I may as well see if anyone wants a trustworthy pet sitter! I'm a stay at home husband who takes care of 3 cats currently and taking care of more pets would be no trouble. So pet care is just part of my everyday amyway I have a large fenced in yard, as well as a 3000sq ft home with plenty of rooms and space if your pet wants open areas, plenty of space if they need space. All dogs get atleast 1 walk a day(2 if it isnt 90+degrees). I feed my own pets twice a day 12hours a part. However am I will to feed your pets on any schedule they normally would have at home
“Ashley was incredibly communicative right from the beginning.. Bentley is a very shy dog who takes a while to warm up, but to my surprise, he settled in and got comfortable with her very quickly. She was very clear and thorough with Bentley’s care. That says so much about her calm and caring nature. She truly put me at ease the entire time, making the whole experience completely stress-free. I’m so grateful to have found someone so attentive and reliable. 💛”
“Katie was awesome! She posted pictures and kept me updated. Her dog was sweet to Wrigley and she had a playmate for the day. I felt way more comfortable knowing my pup was somewhere they were looked after and cared for on a long work day!”
About: I've owned dogs for over 20 years and have pet sat friend's and families pets over the years. I have experience with big and small dogs. I am a stay at home parent so I have all day and night to spend with your pup. They can cuddle up on the couch or go to their kennel and lay if they prefer isolation. We have a pool so if they like to swim we can definitely do that. We go on morning walks and sometime evening walks so your pup would be part of our pack and get some exercise. I will be more than happy to send you pics and updates during the stay. I have a fenced in yard with a pool if your dog likes to swim. I also have a fixed dog friendly dog your pup can play with. They will not be unsupervised during any play activity.
“My dog is a foster dog who I adopted just 1 month ago. He can have seperation anxiety. This morning Timothy met us in the parking lot and helped transition my dog. Timothy was patient and excellent in helping my dog get used to a new enviroment. It was my dogs first day care and TImothy provided support and training for him. Appreciated him as a dog trainer and sitter.”
“Mathew and his wife where great with my pup Polo they have a beautiful home and they where very nice my pup had a great experience with them and they also communicated with me throughout the stay and sent pictures I would recommend them to everyone who needs a sitter they where awesome 10 stars if they had it”
About: A little about me and my love for dogs… I’m Christian and Love God first, my second Love is dogs, and how ironic is it that God spelled backwards is dog, I believe God has given us these fur angels as one of his most awesome gifts.♥️✝️ I was in the medical field for 20+years but decided i wanted to be around fur babies instead so I started dog sitting. I can administer insulin, I have experience as my previous fur baby was diabetic & I had to give her insulin shots. I don’t have any children or anyone else living with me. I was a foster mom in the rescue group Lonestar shi tzu & Lhasa apsa, and have experience with all types of dogs. I either have my worship music on or sleep music, and the babies seem to enjoy both. I don’t have a full time job outside of doggy daycare but I do a little uber from time to time. I always get asked how I manage several dogs at a time, and I just show the pack I’m the pack leader and they follow my instructions. I’ve watched a lot of Cesar Milan.😁I have a handicap ramp in the backyard for the elders or for any that have problems with steps, the backyard is covered with outdoor green carpets so no dirt or stepping in anything. I often bake fresh sweet potatoes for the babies and they Love it. I give Lots of Love and attention, it’s like going to Grandma’s house.😁❤️ I really enjoy having all the fur angels stay with me however I will no longer be taking puppies/dogs not potty trained, and NOT on flea prevention. Please be PUNCTUAL, I need drop off and pick up times, please be able to provide shot records that the fur baby is up to date with their shots, flea prevention, and have been spayed or neutered. I have a fenced in backyard, I let the furbabies out often. There are lots of toys in the house, I also have many cameras (inside & out)that’s a two way audio in case I have to go somewhere, I can check on them. I live in a nice mobile home, moved in after hurricane Harvey & started with almost nothing, so I’ve made improvements throughout the years like a secure gate for the porch so assurance that the babies are completely safe when it’s a nice day and we want to enjoy bird watching from the porch & a handicap ramp for the backyard, my house is puppy proof and very clean, and the entire living room specifically dedicated to the fur babies, and playtime is pretty much all the time, unless it’s naptime. I want the fur babies to be happy and comfortable, my number one priority is their Safety & Happiness ❤️Nothing but love in my home! I also take a lot of pictures/videos because I want to capture the cute things the babies do, I’ve got a lot of pictures here to look at so you can see all of the cuteness. Please make sure your fur baby is clean(recently bathed) so we can all snuggle in the bed, I don’t want anyone to feel left out, as I’m no longer giving baths. I’m pretty sure your baby will be wanting to visit again, it seems everyone says they’re babies aren’t going to want to go home because I spoil them so much. I’m older(56 and keep to myself), it’s just me and the fur babies ❤️ If you’re like me and super protective of your babies you want the best and make sure they’re safe then it’s definitely here!❤️ I devote most of my time to all the fur babies I have stay. I give them lots of love and attention. I treat the fur babies like my own, and as if they’re my kids🥰 I have a fence for the backyard, and I go outside with the babies when they need to go potty, I want them to feel safe.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alvin
Natalia did an amazing job taking care of Coconut. She kept us updated with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She had bowls, toys, and everything the dogs needed, plus easy access to a secure backyard. Since Coconut doesn’t usually have free access to a yard, it was so nice that she could go in and out as she pleased. Natalia clearly has a great process in place to make sure the dogs are well cared for, and she gave us a detailed summary at the end of the stay. We felt completely comfortable and confident leaving Coconut with her. We will definitely be booking with her for all our future stays.

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Alvin is $32 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $33 per day. 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.

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 Alvin 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.

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.
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 .
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 , 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 .
