I’m a part time Esthetician and my husband works from home. We have a 5 yr old Cockapoo so we stay home everyday with him. We have a fenced in backyard and a 10 acre park with walking trail.

“Kristi and her family have taken wonderful care of my dog during several stays. Max is always excited when he arrives and clearly enjoys spending time there, especially playing with their dog. Kristi also sends photos of him having fun during his stay, which I really appreciate. It’s reassuring to know he’s in such a caring environment. I highly recommend Kristi to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter for their puppy.”
“We had such a great experience with this dog kenneling service! Our dogs seemed so happy and well cared for throughout their stay. We were kept updated regularly, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Due to circumstances completely out of our control, we had to add an extra day to their stay, and they were incredibly accommodating and understanding. The pictures we received were absolutely wonderful and really captured each of their personalities. We truly appreciate the care, communication, and flexibility. We would definitely use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a place where their dogs will be loved and well cared for!”
“We recently relocated to Celina. We were searching for a place to board our Ozzie and turned to rover for this effort. Thankfully we came across Ms Vanessa and her husband! They were in contact with us throughout Ozzie’s stay and also sent pics! Thanks so much for taking care of our little guy! We will be reaching out for future stays!”
“Sheri is like family to us and we trust her with our puppies (babies) without a doubt or worry. She’s so nice, and friendly she sends pics the entire time so you’re always at ease. And if you have questions she’s quick to respond. Look no further if you’re trying to find the right place to leave your furry family member. Just check with me first so I don’t have anything planned then lolol”
“We had a wonderful experience with Daisy. She kindly accepted our last-minute request to take care of our 4-month-old Labradoodle, Astro, and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy. She provided frequent updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind knowing Astro was in good hands. Her kindness, flexibility, and genuine care truly stood out. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter, and we’ll definitely be using her services again in the future!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Chandra taking care of our Razor! From the moment we met her, we knew he was in loving and capable hands. She treated Razor like family, giving him so much love, attention, and care throughout his stay. Razor had an amazing time and was so happy and comfortable with her. The regular updates gave us complete peace of mind while we were away, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about his happiness and well-being. We honestly feel like Razor has found his second home! ❤️ We will definitely be reaching out to Chandra for all our future trips, and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and exceptional to look after their dog. Thank you so much, Chandra, for taking such wonderful care of our boy, Razor! You’ve definitely gained a lifelong client and a very happy dog!”
“Elaine and Steve were so good to my anxious 5 yr old Havanese dog. They really care a lot about making him comfortable and it didn’t take long for him to feel right at home. They gave him so much attention and love and I could see how happy it made him. He is shy but he became best friends with Elaine and Steve. We received plenty of pictures and updates during the boarding. I will happily book them again!”
“Penny had a wonderful time staying with Lindsey. We received updates, pictures and videos most days. Rover is a wonderful way to match your family member with someone who will love them and take care of them while you are on vacation. We highly recommend Lindsey if you are in the McKinney Tx area and we will definitely rebook with Lindsey on our next vacation.”
“So incredibly fortunate to have found Andreia and her family! Our precious fur baby, Summer had the time of her life. So much so that we had to warn Andreia not to make Summer love her stay too much because we were worried she wouldn't want to come home anymore. We had a stress free 2-week vacation, secure and confident that she was well taken care of. Andreia and her family loved Summer like their own. We had daily updates and Andreia is very responsive. We couldn't be happier. We will definitely not hesitate to leave Summer with them again. Thank you, Andreia. Thank you to your 2 wonderful boys and your own fur baby and kitty.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Van Alstyne
Kristina and Derek were very nice to work with. They are clearly dog lovers, which are the best kind of people! They have a large yard that our girls enjoyed thoroughly. There were other dogs to play with and even some farm animals that kept them entertained. We felt our dogs were safe and well cared for.
Vanessa and Enzo were SO good with my nervous girl, Luna. They took plenty of time to explain their process and how they make sure the environment is safe and relaxed for any of the dogs in their home. Their dog, Dolce is also a sweetheart who was eager to make a new friend, while also being very patient and understanding towards my hesitant dog. I booked daycare with them this time to get Luna accustomed to the new environment before an upcoming trip - and I’m looking forward to using their services again soon for the full boarding experience.

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Van Alstyne is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $50 per night. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 1,632 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Van Alstyne. About 93% of Van Alstyne sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
