“Selena was amazing with Mathilde! Mathilde almost always has anxiety and can't eat much during her first couple of boarding days but with Selena she ate every day and was calm and had fun.”
“Aleksei & Galina were great! Starting from the meet & greet, Galina read and asked follow up questions based on our pretty thorough guide of Angie. We tend to be quite picky with Angie as she’s a senior dog now, but I know Angie did not want to leave after the sit. Thank you both!”
“Shavonne went above and beyond watching my boy! I received many pictures of him throughout my trip to see he was being cuddled or having fun outside. Communication was great and I felt so at ease with him being there. Shavonne was so kind and I highly recommend her services!!!”
“Joyce was fantastic! Prior to agreeing to board Macy, she had reviewed all the information I provided, asked essential questions and sent daily videos and pictures.Despite my plane delays on my return, Joyce and her husband were easy going. Macy appeared to have a great time. I would definitely call on Joyce in the future.”
About: Hello folks, we have been a large dog family for over 12 years. Unfortunately I lost my puppy this year. It's too early for me to get a new pet but we miss him dearly. While I had him I was always looking for a family that could board him while I was out traveling or visiting family. It's time for me to return the favor to other dog families who need that support and help. I live near Sunnyvale downtown in a single family home with a large lot and know the neighborhood well. We offer a calm, home environment — not a kennel — where dogs get personalized care and lots of love. I send regular photo updates so you always know how your pup is doing. As dog owner myself, I understand what pet parents look for — reliability, communication, and genuine love for animals. Your dog will get plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles during their stay with me. I will be happy to board your babies and take care of them while you are gone. Give me a few days of notice so I can plan my work schedule and travel plans accordingly. For longer stays, please give me a few weeks notice. I work from home, so your dog is never left alone for long. They'll have company throughout the day, regular outdoor breaks, and plenty of attention. My schedule is flexible, which means I can give dogs the time and attention they deserve — regular walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day rather than just morning and evening. Pet care is a natural part of our daily routine since we have had our own dog at home. Morning and evening walks are already built into my day, and I make sure every dog in our care gets exercise, attention, and downtime on a consistent schedule. I have a fully fenced yard. My home is a safe, pet-friendly environment — I had a dog of my own, so I've already done the work of making sure the space is comfortable and secure for animals. I have a fenced yard where dogs can play freely, and I always supervise interactions between pets to make sure everyone gets along well. I treat every dog as an individual — some need more activity, some need more quiet time, and I adjust accordingly. Food, medications, and any special routines are followed exactly as the owner instructs. I keep leashes on during walks in the neighborhood and never leave guest dogs unattended outside. You'll receive regular photo and text updates throughout the stay so you always have peace of mind.
“Excellent sitter! My dog was very happy at Sofiya’s. She provides daily text updates and pics! Very responsive. Never a worry on my part. Ollie came home freshly bathed and very tired from playing with other pups. I can tell he misses it! Highly recommended.”
“Ghazal is super responsive, gives a lot of attention to my dog, and provides the right care to her. She sent a lot of photos and I can definitely see that my dog is spending a great time with her! I will highly recommend her and rebook again :)”
“Just like everyone’s fear specially your if you ever trust someone to care your family member. No doubt Leah is very kind, loving to my little fur (Hershey). She keep us posted everyday just like having a dairy for our dog. She will make sure that we have a piece of mind not to worry about our dog when we are away. I will definitely recommend her to anyone who loves their fur. Big Thank You Leah and her partner as well.”
“Michael was very easy going and it’s apparent that he loves caring for the dogs. ZuZu has a great stay at his place. He took walks every day with ZuZu and played with her. I’m confident that we will use his care again in the future.”
“Maria was communicative and thorough! Flawless handoff and pick up despite us having to ask our friends to do it for us. Supa seemed happy and relaxed in all the photos Maria shared, and Maria was really understanding of Supa’s quirks. Would definitely recommend Maria to anyone looking for a sitter and we look forward to supa staying with Maria in the future!”
“Shreeja and her husband are awesome. They took great care of Shiro. He felt like home with her. He got cuddled, belly rubs, walks, played fetch and what not. Shiro was picky eater and she was very kind to hand feed him. She shared Shiro's updates in photos and videos every few hours that made me not feel anxious throughout my 8 days trip. Thank you soo much for taking care and loving him. Would definitely leave Shiro with her the next time we are out of town. I recommend Shreeja 1000%”
“Dawn took amazing care of our dog! She sent great photos, videos, and recaps every day. Our dog actually developed an ear infection the day after we dropped him off, and she went above and beyond in coordinating with me to get him to the vet to get him taken care of. I wish I could give her 6 stars!”
“I highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for a sitter. She is very kind and friendly with dogs. Our dog is anxious in new places. Lily clearly understood her nature and took excellent care of her. This is the second time leaving our dog with her and our dog loves Lily. She sends daily updates with pictures which helped us be at ease and enjoy our vacation. Lily is the best and is one of my go to dog sitters.”
“My husband and I traveled all the way from Texas to watch the World Cup match, and we were looking for someone trustworthy to take care of our Keeper. Finding Yasemin was truly the best decision we could have made. While we were enjoying the game, Keeper had an amazing day filled with love, cuddles, and attention. She treated him like he was her own fluffy little pup. We received plenty of photos and videos throughout the day, which gave us so much peace of mind. If we’re ever back in the area, we’ll leave Keeper with Yasemin again without a second thought. Thank you so much for everything! We hope to see you again soon. 🐾”
“Poppy had a great stay! Margaret was so patient and thoughtful getting Poppy settled and comfortable with her crew. Communication was just right to put my mind at ease and see that Poppy was having a great time.”
“Our dog spent another long weekend with Boris and Olga and I feel like he had the best weekend! They took him on a hike and it feels like they really treated him like their own. Great communication. Lots of photos. Flexible with drop off and pick up. Would absolutely use again!”
“Emily cared my cat with passion and love during the boarding time. Ended up my cat is too happy with her didn't wanted go home with me. My cat's behavior said thousands words about Emily profession service. Definitely deserved More than 5 starts rating. Highly recommend!”
“Nina and Tony took excellent care of our 5 year old golden doodle, Yogi. They are so communicative, sent frequent updates. Yogi looked very well cared for and happy when we picked him up. Would highly recommend Nina and Tony!!”

After arranging for Amey to board my Darby, we were able to meet for a meet and greet in advance. Having met Amey as well as his wife and their dog Scooby I could tell that Darby would be in good hands. Amey was great about sending me photos to show me how well she was doing. I was quite confident that she was being well taken care of during her stay.
Dawn provides some of the most entertaining and thorough updates I've ever read... I always look forward to reading them when I'm away. Her thoughtfulness and attention to detail puts my anxious mind at ease. I could tell that my dog was having so much fun playing with friends and visiting new places. At times I wondered if my dog was enjoying her vacation more than I was enjoying mine!
Shreeja provided excellent care for my dog, Nova. I really appreciated Shreeja's availability on short notice and the photos/videos I received during Nova's stay. Nova clearly felt calm & happy which gave me peace of mind while on vacation. I will happily return when I need to board Nova again.
From the moment I dropped off my puppy, I had a great first impression. She was incredibly caring and attentive, keeping me updated on how my puppy was doing throughout the stay. It was clear my puppy was having so much fun and was in great hands. I know exactly who I'll trust the next time I need a Rover sitter. Highly recommend!
Yuki had a wonderful stay with Gwen! Yuki is a healthy and active senior Maltese Westie mix (16 years old) and requires extra love and care. Gwen was very good at following his routine and meds according to his schedule and making sure he felt comfortable and happy. I loved receiving so many pictures, videos and regular updates. Yuki really enjoyed the dog park in her apartment complex. I felt at peace knowing Yuki was well taken care of. I would book her again and totally recommend her. Big thanks for everything!
Andrew was fantastic! He took great care of Teddy and made sure she was comfortable and happy throughout her stay. He was communicative and provided regular updates, which gave me peace of mind. I would highly recommend Andrew and would gladly book with him again.
Sesame has stayed with Galina and Aleksei multiple times and she absolutely loves being with them. They have become our go-to sitter for when we’re away on long trips. Sesame gets so much attention and adventures when she’s with them and we get peace of mind knowing that she’s well cared for. I especially appreciate the daily picture updates and communication/flexibility around pickups and drop offs. Thanks again, Galina and Aleksei for taking such good care of Sesame!
We are very happy we found Dale. He was so calm and patient with our dog, Maui, giving him the time and space he needed to get comfortable. Dale sent regular updates and it was clear he understood our dog perfectly. He made Maui feel at ease and even enjoy trips to the park, despite his usual anxiety in new places. We would definitely leave Maui with Dale again.

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.
93% of Alviso 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 Alviso 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 Alviso 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 Alviso.
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 Alviso 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 CA 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.
