“Hook stayed with Esequias and Lisa for his second stay. They treated him as one of their own and he seems to have adjusted well to his home away from home. They kept us updated with pics so we could see how he was doing. We just appreciate them so much and will be leaving our fur baby with them in the future.”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of our pups! I always feel completely confident that they’re in good hands with you. It’s such a relief knowing they’re being loved and cared for like family while we’re away.”
“I would like to let you know how grateful my family and I are to you for all the love and care that you've given to our extended family members. It's such a relief to know that they were in trustworthy hands...capable of handling a 17-year-old Lucky, our loving Doberman Beauty and our aloof chihuahua Nala. We loved the photos and updates. I would recommend your service to anyone needing dog boarding. YOU ROCK 5 STARS!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats growing up. I’ve had four dogs at the same time and I have always had a cat growing up. I love taking care of cats and playing with them. I think animals deserve love and affection and care. I’ve taken care of young animals and I’ve also taken care of senior animals. I currently have two cats who are 13 years old and 3 years old. I currently work full time, so weekends would be best or after work. Fridays I work from home so I’m fully flexible. Overnights stays would have to be weekends unless it’s close to my work then it’s possible for longer stays I have a home that my cats can roam around and everything is pet friendly. They don’t get into anything that is harmful for them
“Such wonderful sitters. I could tell Tucker enjoyed his stay. They kept me updated on how he was doing with sweet notes and pictures. Thank you for treating him as your own!”
“Michele was very attentive and sent us lots of pictures to keep up with what the dogs were doing. They seemed to have a great time in the big back yard. We will be using Michele again and we’re so happy to have a great option close to our house.”
“Diana took great care of my Dog Wooly and was very understanding when my car broke down out of town and I couldn’t come to get Wooly as scheduled. She updated me daily on my dog’s condition and activities and gave him his meds as I instructed. Wooly will definitely love to stay with Diana again 🐾”
“Can’t say enough about how wonderful Richard is! He helped me in a short notice pinch and was so kind. He took amazing care of my Maia, every picture and video showed her so happy with her tail wagging like crazy. He walked her often and loved on her like she was his own. If that wasn’t awesome enough he came to the rescue again when my flight was extremely delayed and kept Maia for an extra night. Richard is an excellent communicator with frequent updates so I was able to enjoy my holidays stress free. He has a heart of gold and I will definitely use him again. Your pet couldn’t be in better hands with Richard!”
“Sarah watched my puppy Dakota for a second time while I went out of town. She sent me lots of updates with pictures and video. She also took my fur baby on some walks. I am so happy I found her!”
“Courtney and her family were SO good with our girl! They welcomed her right into the family and took excellent care of her! I have no doubt we will use Courtney again to care for Ellie Mae.”
“I will definitely book with Luda again! She was fantastic! She sent me an update with pictures every day that she had my furbabies. One of my dogs has anxiety and he was cuddling with her on the second day...she is magic! I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Ivy was amazing with our dog Simba! She treated him like one of her own, alongside her fur-babies. Daily checkins with photo updates kept us reassured, and she was so flexible when we unexpectedly needed to extend his stay. Simba was clearly loved and well cared for. We travel often, and Ivy will definitely be our go-to sitter!”

“Maria was amazing! She kept me updated throughout the day, and her communication gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was doing well. He is on a strict diet and takes medication, and she handled both without any issues. It was clear she genuinely cared for him, and I felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care. I will definitely be using Maria again and highly recommend her! Maria fue increible. Me mantuvo informada durante todo el dia, y su comunicacion me dio mucha tranquilidad al saber que mi perrito estaba bien.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Alvord 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.
100% of Alvord 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 Alvord 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 Alvord 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 Alvord.
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 Alvord 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.
