“Jennifer was easy to communicate with prior to the booking and while she had my pups. She would send daily updates with pictures and/or videos which helped with being apart from them! In all the videos and pictures my dogs seemed so happy and at ease. At pickup they were in no distress and happy. Jennifer worked with me when it came to drop off and pick up times which helped out so much with working and trying to plan leaving for a trip. We will definitely be using Jennifer again.”
“Thank you for caring for Dante ! He came back home a happy baby ! Amber definitely took good care of him and I couldn’t of been more pleased 😃 definitely will book with her again in the future”
“Easy communication and lots of photos of the fun our girls were having! Morgan & Mason are kind and loving, and we could tell they took the time to get to know our dogs and their personalities. Would absolutely board with them again and highly recommend!”
“Jamie, did an awesome job caring for my Millie, she communicated with me daily as well as sent me daily pictures. My English Bulldog is not used to being away from home but she seemed to adapt to spending time with Jamie and her family well.”
“Alicia is the only person in bham I trust with my pups now! She is so kind and goes above and beyond to accommodate her house guests 🤗 she kept our dogs for the long weekend and sent so many updates, I felt like they were on more of a vacation than me! Lol our dogs really love her and her family as well. We will use her every time we need a sitter.”
“We had to evacuate due to Hurricane Ida. Our dog was confused as to what was going on, as this was her first log road trip. We found April while in Tuscaloosa and I can't say enough good things about the experience our dog had. She made our pup feel like she was part of her house. On pickup, we had a tail wagging, well adjusted pup who thought she just came off vacation. I cannot recommend April enough.”
“Marilyn is a fantastic pet sitter—friendly, very accommodating with last-minute changes, and clearly cares a lot for the animals in her care. She took great care of our pup and we definitely recommend her services!”
About: I am a student at the University of Alabama with a flexible schedule and a love for pooches. I have been house/dog sitting for one family for over a year. I have two sweet females that I typically do not keep with me (an adult lab and a husky puppy.) I am more than happy to visit your home to take care of your sweet fur babies. If needed, I can meet up with my two pups to ensure they will get along with any new friends if there is a chance they will meet while with me. I do not have children nor do I have any other types of pets. I don't mind dogs with high energy levels, we have plenty of room for all types of energy. I also enjoy naps.
“Very nice and accommodating! Very loving with our dogs. She had lots of different kinds of treats. Our dogs have a hard time when we leave them with others. They tend to not eat as much and have a little anxiety. She did so much to make them comfortable and ensure they had fun. She even went as far as to boil them chicken to get them to eat when they weren’t eating much. We would definitely have our dogs stay with her again.”
“Ally was so amazing with my Goose! She absolutely loved playing with all her goldens! Ally was super responsive to any question or text I sent and also sent daily updates with pictures! Will definitely be rebooking with Ally, she’s a wonderful person to watch your babies!”
About: I have over 12 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable working with both large and small dogs. I have also trained dogs and have experience caring for senior dogs, including those with special needs. I am a full-time student at the University of Alabama, but I have a flexible schedule and am happy to drive to your home between classes. My classes end by 3 PM every day except Tuesday. I’m also available to take your pet out for long walks, runs, or a calm day out of the house during the day. In my home, I take my dog outside often, not just for bathroom breaks, but also to play, run, and get fresh air. I enjoy going on runs with him to help keep him active and healthy. I also like taking him on drives if they enjoy car rides. For my cats, I spend time playing with them using their toys and giving them attention. I also understand that my cats sometimes prefer to relax, so I let them have their space when they’re not in the mood to play.

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.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
97% of sitters in Alpine Hills can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Alpine Hills 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 Alpine Hills.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alpine Hills. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Alpine Hills 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 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.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
