“Tahlia was fantastic, very responsive answering messages and provided lots of pictures and videos of my sweet Bleuy! This was my first time using a sitter and Tahlia has set the bar very high! Bleuy had a great time playing with the other doggies during day care and we will definitely be using Tahlia again when we come to town for a long day. Thank you so much for loving on our sweet baby and making her feel like she was at home!”
About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog since I was around the age of 9. I’ve also been trusted by many family and friends to take care of their pets. I would love to care for your pet like my own! I’m a stay at home mom, so i’m free any day of any week to keep your animals! I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I have a okay sized yard for your pet to run and play, I can create if needed. I’m more than happy to travel to you to care for them!
“I really appreciate Morgan. My schedule unfortunately almost caused a conflict with hers and she still went above and beyond to make sure Max enjoyed himself. Even as I picked Max up he continued to attempt to leave the car to go back with her, I could tell he enjoyed himself with her dog as well. Very appreciative! Definitely reach out to her about your fur baby.”
“I was so nervous to trust someone with my new puppy. However, Kayte was so kind, understanding and patient with me. Our puppy really blossomed in her care and enjoyed spending time with her family. She was excited to go back each day and was exhausted from all the playing when she came home. Great experience!”
“Zoe was a life saver for us! She was able to keep Charlie on short notice and provide great updates and took great care of him. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Riley seemed to have a great time playing with friends and snuggling with the family which was welcoming and friendly. The yard was very large for energetic play. Thanks, Rachel.”
“I cannot say enough good about Savannah! She is an absolutely amazing caretaker. She treated my little girl like she was her own. If I could give her 10 out of 5 stars I would.”
“Nala had a great time playing with the other pups today and came home exhausted! Brittany has a great set up and large back yard where the dogs can run and play. She sent pictures and kept me updated. Highly reccomend!”
“Kyler is so good with our fur baby. He is always so excited when it is daycare day to get to go play and have so much fun all day! She takes great pics and is informative. We are definitely repeat clients.”
“Samantha did an amazing job! She was very accommodating as our drop off time was very last minute. She sent updates and we felt like our pup was in great hands the whole time. We will definitely reach out again when we are back in the area.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 4 years! I have three goldens of my own and understand how they can can be like family! 🫶🏼 I would be so excited to take care of your pets while you are away! I am also an AKC affiliated dog breeder of two years! I a college student who does online school so I’m available to care for your pets 3-4 times a day if desired. I usually am free any time of the day to come take your dog for a walk, check on them, or stay over night! I do live in a mobile home with three Goldens. The downside is I do not have a fenced in back yard, but the upside is I’m with them 16-24 hours of the day until their owners arrive back home! If a client ask me to stay at their home I usually follow their instructions with how many times they want me to come and if they want me to stay overnight! 🫶🏼
“Opal was so wonderful! You can really tell she loves animals. I felt very comfortable that my babies were safe and in good hands. They had a blast running around outside and playing with the other dog. She sent me regular updates with photos and videos throughout the day. I look forward to booking with Opal again!”
“I LOVE JESSICA! She is so sweet and very informative! I think Jojo and I both look forward to seeing her every morning. I will definitely book with her every chance we can.”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Abernant
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 233 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Abernant. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Abernant 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 AL 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 233 sitters in Abernant, 93% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
