Choose a home that suits your dog’s routine

Before choosing a place near the beach, ask about stairs, other animals, a quiet resting spot and time alone. Bring your dog’s usual food, lead and written instructions. Confirm the actual boarding address before travelling.

Dog resting in a yellow armchair

A home, not a kennel

Your pet sleeps in a room, roams the home and greets the sitter in the morning. No cages and no kennels.

Small fluffy dog

One pet

Care with no contact with other animals: your dog doesn't end up in a strange pack. Only your own pets live together.

White fluffy dog on grass

Its own rhythm and belongings

Feeding, walks and sleep to suit your dog's habits. It comes with its own food, bed and toys.

A person nearby

Not behind a kennel door, but in the same home — you see the home at a free meet-and-greet, before you decide anything.

How the meet-and-greet works

You see the home before booking, not after. The meet-and-greet costs nothing.

Meet-and-greet

Meet the sitter before the stay

Your dog stays in the calm home of a verified Alvis sitter. The exact address, date and written routine determine how the service is organised in Sopot. Availability is confirmed only after a suitable verified sitter accepts the request.

You see the home with your own eyes

Where the dog will sleep, where the bowls are, which way it heads out for a walk. Not a description in messages, but a home you've walked into.

The dog doesn't arrive to a blank slate

The second time it walks into a familiar home and a familiar person — that noticeably lowers the stress of those first hours.

Not a fit — you pick another

The meet-and-greet commits you to nothing and costs nothing. You see the sitter's profile, experience and reviews beforehand, and the decision is always yours.

Arrange a meet-and-greet

Free and no strings attached.

Reports

A message from the sitter

Alvis pet sitter
Alvis pet sitter

Neo stops at every patch of leaves today. I allow time to investigate the path instead of pulling onwards, and we move on together after a while. We pause in a quieter spot too. Here are a few photos; the autumn colours make a lovely backdrop to that pale face.

Read the full reportCollapse report

Back indoors, I wipe paws and refresh the water. Food is served according to your instructions, without introducing new treats. The familiar blanket and bed are ready in a quiet spot. Things are quiet at home now. I do not start another game after the walk; Neo has time to rest while I get on with things nearby.

The next outing stays at the agreed time. Until then I am nearby and let Neo rest after all that sniffing. If collection time needs to change, please message beforehand so we can arrange the final walk and return the belongings without rushing.

How the day goes

A day shaped around your dog’s routine

Your dog stays in the calm home of a verified Alvis sitter. The exact address, date and written routine determine how the service is organised in Sopot. All practical arrangements remain attached to the booking, so the owner and sitter work from the same information.

  1. Morning

    Waking at its usual time

    Waking at the dog's usual time, its own food in its own bowl, fresh water. The first walk — according to the schedule in the plan.

    Dog under a blanket
  2. Day

    At home together with the sitter

    Time at home with the sitter, not in a closed-off room: play, calm rest, water always available. On the three-walk plan they head out once more during the day.

    The first photo report

  3. Evening

    A walk, dinner, medications

    The second walk, dinner on your schedule, medications if prescribed. Paws get washed after being outside.

  4. Night

    Sleeps on its bed — or in bed with the sitter

    The dog sleeps on its own bed, not in a separate kennel. And if it's used to sleeping in the bed at home, the sitter doesn't mind. A person nearby all night long.

Pet card

One written brief for the whole stay

Your dog stays in the calm home of a verified Alvis sitter. The exact address, date and written routine determine how the service is organised in Sopot. Availability is confirmed only after a suitable verified sitter accepts the request.

The pet card in the client panel

Breed, weight, age, temperament, habits, fears, what's allowed and what isn't. The sitter receives it before boarding begins.

Medications and diet — on schedule

Name, dose, time, its own food and how much. It's part of the booking, not a verbal arrangement.

Once more in person at the meet-and-greet

You show the dosing and make sure you've been understood — before you leave, not over the phone from another country.

Getting ready

What to prepare before drop-off

Your dog stays in the calm home of a verified Alvis sitter. The exact address, date and written routine determine how the service is organised in Sopot. All practical arrangements remain attached to the booking, so the owner and sitter work from the same information.

Food

For the whole boarding period, in its usual form and portions.

Bowls

For food and for water.

A bed or bedding

Its own scent helps it fall asleep the first night.

Leash, harness, muzzle

A muzzle — if your dog needs one.

A favorite toy

And familiar treats.

Medications with a schedule

What, how much and at what time.

The vet passport

And your vet's contact details.

Your contact details

And the phone number of someone reachable when you can't be reached.

You hand all of this over in person at the meet-and-greet or on the day boarding starts — and that's where you go over the details.

An honest comparison

Boarding, in-home care or a dog hotel

Your dog stays in the calm home of a verified Alvis sitter. The exact address, date and written routine determine how the service is organised in Sopot. Availability is confirmed only after a suitable verified sitter accepts the request.

We're not saying a hotel is bad. We're saying home boarding solves a different problem: the dog doesn't have to adjust to an unfamiliar routine and an unfamiliar pack.

How to book

From request to confirmed sitter

Your dog stays in the calm home of a verified Alvis sitter. The exact address, date and written routine determine how the service is organised in Sopot. All practical arrangements remain attached to the booking, so the owner and sitter work from the same information.

  1. Information about your dog

    Dates, breed, temperament and the pet card with medications and routine. Three minutes, no strings attached.

  2. Matching a home and a sitter

    We show you sitters nearby; you choose by profile, experience and reviews.

  3. A preview of the conditions

    You see where the dog will be staying, before you even decide.

  4. A meet-and-greet before the start

    You come to the sitter's home, and the dog gets to know the place. Free and no strings attached.

  5. Routine, feeding, walks

    You agree on the times, the portions of its own food and the number of walks in the plan.

  6. Boarding and reports

    Your pet lives with its own belongings, and you get a photo report twice a day.

Find your sitter

Cancel 3 days ahead or earlier — full refund. A question before booking — message the coordinator.

Common cases

Care adjusted to the individual dog

Cat

A cat needs no walks

no-walks plan · 69 zł/day

A cat doesn't need walks: a place to stay, feeding, care and reports. The sitter adapts to the cat's temperament — no forcing, giving it space and time to settle in.

Puppy

A puppy not going out yet

no-walks plan · 69 zł/day

A puppy also fits the no-walks plan if it doesn't go outside yet. Feeding on your schedule. You note vaccinations and routine in your request.

Two or more

Several pets together

+50 zł dog · +35 zł cat / day

Pets are taken in together. Walks for additional pets are bought separately. There's no need to split up animals that live together.

How to choose dog care

Your dog stays in the calm home of a verified Alvis sitter. The sitter is matched to your address in Sopot, your dates and the individual routine of your pet.

Why owners choose home boarding

Before booking, you see the scope and current price. For longer care, a meet-and-greet helps confirm the routine, access and emergency contact.

Safety at every stage

Verified sitters, written instructions, regular reports, coordinator support and a replacement plan make the service easier to check and manage.

Handover between your journey and check-in

Agree on your dog’s handover separately from check-in at your accommodation. Tell the sitter if you arrive by train or return late. Check what the final booking day covers instead of assuming every reservation includes evening collection.
