“This was my first time using Rover and I cannot say enough good things about our pet sitter Carson. She was perfect for us and our pet babies and from the very beginning of the process she was great. She was quick to respond to my initial message and she was informative and accommodating. She welcomed our babies into her home and sent us pictures and texts to let us know they were doing well which was so nice. She even went above and beyond when my flight home was going to make me late for our pickup time and was so helpful and accommodating! Overall, it was one of the best experiences with pet sitting/ boarding that we’ve ever had. Carson, thank you much for taking care of our babies! You don’t know how nice it was to know that they were being loved while we were away. And thank you so much for the pictures and for always reaching out to ask me questions about them. I hope they were good for you and that are invited back again because you guys were so wonderful and a godsend. Thank you again!!!! 💕”
“Molly had a wonderful stay with Barrie! It was clear that Molly was loved on and well taken care of by the frequent updates, pictures, and videos we received from Barrie. Barrie loved Molly as if Molly was her own pup. Molly got tons of play time and had a blast.”
“My girl, Poppy, had the best time staying with Kyler and her dogs! She got to play inside and outside, and I received regular updates and plenty of pictures of Poppy and her new friends, so I felt very comfortable that I’d left Poppy in great hands over the weekend. Kyler had clear, timely communication from booking to even after pick up, and made the process as easy as possible.”
“Opal was amazing! She took on our sweet guy for a last minute booking. We received constant updates throughout his stay. She was very detailed oriented in getting to know him and what made him comfortable. We felt like he was safe and loved in our absence. We will absolutely we booking with her in the future.”
“I had to take a last minute trip out of state and used Rover for the first time. I chose Libby and she was absolutely wonderful. She was easy to book last minute and she took good care of my fur babies. I have a 9 year old Samoyed/Husky mix and a 6 month old Samoyed. She was very responsive and sent the best pictures and videos of my babies. I highly recommend her and I will definitely book with Libby again in the future.”
“Deby was the best sitter I’ve encountered on Rover thus far. Her communication and care for my pup was the best and I constantly got updates! I know if I ever have another occasion where I have to be away from home I will look for Deby first! She is very patient and loving and I thank her for being the nicest to my pup”
“Cody was great with my dog! Gave him plenty of walks, he seemed well fed and in good spirits when I picked him up. Very good communication as well, would highly recommended”

“Westyn was great! He kept me informed on my pups experience was I was away. Pictures tell a thousand words and I could tell she had a great time and felt right at home. I will definitely rebook again!”
“Kaitlyn is one of the best sitters on Rover! She is so kind and accommodating. She let me know what was going on with my dog, and I had no concerns about Chloe’s safety. She even sent us home with a little gift. I highly recommend using Kaitlyn for all pet sitting needs 🖤”
“Riley took great care of our dog and kept us updated throughout the stay. She was reliable, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease. She is officially our go-to sitter, and we highly recommend her!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my cat received during their stay! From the moment we arrived, I felt confident that my furry family member was in loving, capable hands. Kordell was kind, attentive, and kept me updated, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. When I picked my cat up, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious he genuinely love animals and go above and beyond to make each pet feel safe and comfortable. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring place for their cat. Thank you for treating my baby like one of your own I will definitely be back!”

There are 342 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Bessemer. About 93% of Bessemer sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

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 pet, 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.
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.
