“Ollie had a great time! He had other dogs to play with and a big back yard to run in. Amy sent pictures and videos of our sweet dog every day since this was our first time leaving him with anyone! He came home and immediately went to sleep- which means he played hard! Thanks Amy!”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover, and caring for pets is something that comes very naturally to me. I know how important it is to have someone you truly trust caring for your pets when you can’t be there, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re being treated with the same love and attention I’d give my own. We currently have three cats—one outdoor cat and two indoor cats—as well as two bunnies who have their own separate space. Our cats are extremely well socialized and are accustomed to being around other cats, dogs, and our bunnies. We do not currently have a dog of our own. I’m comfortable with all the everyday things that make a big difference: feeding routines, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter boxes, keeping spaces clean, and, of course, plenty of attention and affection. I also understand that every animal has its own personality. Some want to be right beside you, while others need a little more patience and space before they feel comfortable. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and at home while they’re in my care. I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible and keep you updated along the way, so you can relax knowing your pet is being genuinely cared for. I am a stay-at-home/Homeschooling Mom to an 8 year old son. We offer boarding Monday-Friday and some holidays. We welcome all fur babies and truly enjoy the time we get to spend with each one of them. An area of my back yard is fenced while the other half is open. We have plenty of shaded space available for those hot days while enjoying the beautiful weather!

“As a self-proclaimed helicopter dog mom, Bri was fantastic with my two girls (and their 6 bags of stuff I sent them with) for their first ever dog sitter experience. They were wagging their tails and had made themselves right at home in every picture and video I saw. Bri’s dog Bingo even got his first girlfriend: my dog Ella! After their 4 night stay, they came home exhausted and in such great spirits. I know the girls are looking forward to their next sleep over at Bri’s!”

About: Hello! My name is Anna Kate. I am a current student at Auburn University studying veterinary pharmacy and I work at Auburn’s veterinary hospital part time. I attended high school at Hewitt-Trussville High School and graduated with an Honors diploma, and then went on to graduated from Auburn with an undergrad in Biomedical Sciences! Throughout my life, I have loved spending time with animals, and I have a standard poodle named Sully, and a rescue pup named Winnie! My love for all animals has led me to helping others care for their pets! I have plenty of experience with a wide variety of animals including cats, dogs, rabbits, fish, geckos, guinea pigs, frogs, and etc! I have also taken care of all life stages of animals from just a few days old to all the way to senior aged! In my free time during the summers, I also volunteer my time at the local animals shelters and have fostered both kittens and puppies through Care Humane Society! I’ve grown up around dogs all my life and try to provide the best care possible to ensure a happy and healthy life for them. I have a lot of experience with cats as well. I am willing to take care of any pet, and want to provide a great experience for both the owner and pet! In my household, I keep my personal pers crated when left alone or separate them from any other pets via a pet gate. When at a clients house, I follow any of their rules on whether to crate their pet or not. However, whenever I take a dog walking they will always be leashed for their safety.

About: For as long as I can remember, there have always been pets in my life! Whether that was in my own home growing up, in a family member's home, at friends' houses, etc. I have often been the go-to person when it comes to caring for them when their owners are out of town. From walking, feeding, playing, administering medication, and more, I have absolutely loved getting to care for pets of all sizes and ages. As for my own pet experience, after moving to Birmingham in 2018 I applied to become a foster through Two by Two Rescue and began fostering (and quickly failed) with my sweet 13-year-old Pekingese, Max. He was truly the light of my life and we were the best of friends! He taught me a ton about how to care for senior dogs. Before his passing in 2021, I rescued my cat, Mews, and although she's a little hesitant around other pets she stays in her own space! At my own home, I do have stairs but have no issue helping any senior pups or dogs afraid of going upstairs feel comfortable. I used to have to carry Max all the time, haha. I'm also comfortable with pee pads as they used to be a staple in my apartment. I'm not particular about whether or not your pet is create trained and have no issue if they're not! As long as they'd be okay around my cat, I'm more than happy to let them roam around as they please. There are plenty of sidewalks around my apartment for walkies and we're close to a community park as well! Discussing my work schedule is something I do before my meet and greets just so we both have an understanding of expectations. However, my full-time job is a hybrid environment so I'm able to work remotely usually 2 days out of the week (Tuesdays and Thursdays) to care for your pet. On days I am in the office, I'm happy to run by your home during my lunch break if you're close to my office in Hoover. At my home, there is plenty of walking space to take your pup out and get some exercise. We can visit a local park near my house if that's something they'd enjoy. I'm also happy to crate your fur baby if needed.

I currently live in an apartment, but I would love to take your dog out to the park. I go on regular hikes so they can come with me!

Additionally, I've boarded numerous clients' dogs, ensuring their comfort and well-being throughout their stay. Trust me to pamper your pooch, right in the comfort of their own neighborhood! *I am not a trained or certified vet tech, my experience is general care only. As a full-time work from home-r, I'm seeking extra income to support my future goals. Available Fridays through Sundays, I'm passionate about pet care, drawing from 13+ years as a cat owner and professional experience. I also have a very active 2 year old dog who I take out to the dog park and on adventures regularly! Let me provide top-notch care for your furry friends! In my own home and while caring for clients' pets, I prioritize cleanliness and organization, ensuring a tidy environment at all times. My cats receive ample love and attention, with their needs, including a clean litter box, promptly attended to. Regular cleaning schedules are maintained to uphold a pristine living space for both my pets and those under my care. Rest assured, the well-being of animals always takes precedence in house care routines.

I needed to board my pup for several days for the first time, so naturally, Angelika was my first choice. When I dropped off my pup, she became super excited as soon she saw Angelika. I knew right away, she was in good hands.”

“Mallory and her family took great care of my dog, Dottie, over the holidays! I was a little anxious that Dottie would misbehave (she has only been with me a short time and this was her first time staying with a dog sitter). Mallory was great at communicating and great with handling my sweet pup! I was totally reassured that I made the right choice choosing her. I would definitely leave Dottie with her again. I have used a number of different Rover sitters, and Mallory is my favorite!”

About: I have cared for a variety of animals and am comfortable caring for any pet (including exotic or uncommon), any age, any size, any level of care, and any personality! I have past experience caring for senior animals (including dogs, cats, and horses) as well as animals under age 1 (including dogs and cats). I often volunteer at the Birmingham Humane Society! Although I am not offering training services, I have experience training and am willing to uphold any training regimen. I have experience shadowing a household pet veterinarian as well as an equine veterinarian. I also have farm animal care experience. I love playtime and am very attentive! I am very excited to care for your pet! I am available to sit weekends and after 7 pm on weekdays. I can do daytime feedings or walks 2 or 3 times a day. I am available for boarding weekends and weekdays after 7 pm. My apartment is the perfect environment for boarding! I am available for boarding some weekdays all day, but I will need notice 5 days and to coordinate in advance for boarding on a weekday before 7 pm due to shifting schedule days. For walks, let me know an estimated average walk time for your pet so that they are comfortable and happy! For sitting, I will clean any pet messes if needed. Require a decently clean home and closer distance if overnight sitting is needed. Please, let me know of any concerns ahead of time. For boarding, I am in a one bedroom apartment with no other pets and decent play space. I have no toys, litter boxes, or cat trees so will need to provide their own. I live next to a large unfenced park. The apartment is clean and tidy and safe for pets. The apartment building also has a pet bathing station available if your pet needs cleaning. If you are concerned with a public bathing station, I am perfectly comfortable bathing your pet in the bath in my apartment. Please, let me know of any health or hygiene issues beforehand. Medications/allergies/health concerns are extremely important to me.

I travel a good bit for work and fun. So naturally I want to ensure that my little buddy Duke is well taken care of in my absence. We have enjoyed some really great sitters in the several years that we’ve been a part of the Rover community. But hands down Kayla B. was by far THEE best sitter we have ever experienced in 12 years of being a dog mom. Her genuine care, love, and concern for animals is exceptional. Her communication was wonderful and quick. Thanks to Kayla, I even have a picture collage of Duke for keepsake. She went above and beyond to check his tongue when I thought I saw a rash in a picture. This was the first time my dog was torn when it was time to come home. I could tell he missed Kayla and her family instantly. She is our forever sitter as long as she’s doing this.

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Alabaster

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Alabaster is $36 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 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 315 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Alabaster. About 93% of Alabaster 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 AL 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.
