“Shelby was such a great dog sitter for our dog! She sent the best pictures of him enjoying his stay and kept us updated with him on our long weekend trip. Her dogs seemed to be super friendly too and played with ours so we know he was in good hands the whole time!”
“Carli was a huge help taking our pup on a last minute request! She has great communication and was able to work with a couple changes in our travel plans to work out best for everyone. She stuck to our dogs schedule to keep him happy and comfortable and we didn’t have to worry about him at all for the duration of his stay.”
“Kyler was such an amazing sitter for my little Chewie! So considerate of his neurotic little ways. Daily updates with amazing, impossible pics from my uncooperative little doggo! Kyler was so caring and thoughtful. Highly recommend her for you pups, too!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Danielle’s dog boarding service! She took such wonderful care of Chyna, and it was clear from the start that she truly loves and understands dogs. Danielle kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Chyna came back happy, well-rested, and clearly loved on the entire time. Danielle treated her like family, and I’m beyond grateful for the safe, clean, and nurturing environment she provided. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals—Danielle is it! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. 🐾💕”
“Deby was wonderful!!! She made me feel at ease right away, even before we met her in person. Upon arrival, Deby greeted us and showed me around, asked a lot of questions about Lucy's personality, habits, etc. I think within 10 min I received a picture of Lucy curled up on the couch with Deby. She immediately took to Deby and felt at home and that was really obvious, so it settled my nerves and put my mind at ease and we were able to enjoy our first 100% pet free and kid free vacation! Deby made sure to keep in touch with us, send pics and was such a pleasure to work with. We won't be using anyone else!!”
“Kelsey was great with Dexter. He made himself right at home during his first stay with Kelsey and her pups. She kept us updated and sent pictures throughout the week. Will be rebooking with Kelsey.”
“Libby had a clean home, spacious space for Grey to stay & updated us with text & pics. She has a fenced in yard on the side & fenced in deck for the pups to play/relax safely. Grey was well taken care of & if we are in the area again we would rebook.”
“Opal was incredible and I will definitely use her services when going out of town again! My sweet dog is 11 years old and has very bad arthritis but she took the best care of him and loved him like he was her own, and he had a great time! It’s so relieving when you find someone who will love and take care of your pet just as you do at home and will keep you updated with photos and videos each day. 5-stars!”
“Fantastic experience! Easy communication, fast responses, and exceptional care. From the first communication to pickup, all interactions were very kind while also professional. 6 out of 5 stars!!!”
“I have never left Nina with anyone but Kelly made me feel so good about her being away. She sent pictures daily and I could tell my girl was having an amazing time 10/10 highly recommend.”
“My two year old boxer named Cali stayed with David this weekend. I’ve never left her with anyone but my parents so I was little nervous about how it would go since she’s a high energy pup. David was great to work with, he kept me updated with pictures and videos of her playing! I’m already planning to have Cali stay with him when I go on a work trip in September since I feel so confident she’ll have just as great of a time as she did this weekend!”
“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!”
“My dog Jack seemed to really enjoy his stay with Jordyn. Having a home with fenced yard and other dogs, and allowed to be in and out of the home is exactly how he lives at his home. He seemed very comfortable in the setting.”

Ashtan & Josh have been wonderful! They took such good care of my baby girl. They kept me updated with pictures and always told me how she has been doing. My girl was happy, stayed healthy and safe.

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Bessemer on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 365 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Bessemer. About 93% of Bessemer 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 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.
