“Kona absolutely loves staying here! He gets so excited every time we arrive, which gives me so much peace of mind. Emily takes such great care of him and always keeps me updated with photos and messages. It’s clear that he feels comfortable and happy while he’s there. I truly appreciate the love and attention she gives him. Highly recommend!”
“Lee Ann took great care of Callie while we were out of town. She sent pictures and comments most days so we knew Callie was having fun. Our two Goldens loved playing together.”
“Super nice and friendly, gives updares and provides pictures every day and flexible on pickup and drop off times. Definitely recommend 💯 and will leave my dogs with her any day.”
“Our girls enjoyed every minute of there extended stay with Lark and her family. From the moment we dropped them off she sent us regular updates and just pictures and videos showing us how they were settling in. As we travel often and they have to be with a sitter at times we are happy to have found Lark. We will definitely use them as our sitters again and refer them to anyone looking for quality pet sitters.”
“I'm extremely picky about where I'll leave Remi. He's very high energy and very sensitive to new environments. He gets sick and loses weight at traditional kennels (learned this the hard way) so we don't use them. This was just a quick weekend trip, but we got lots of pictures & updates and picked up a happy, healthy, & very tired pup tonight :) Definitely recommend!!”
“Brian and his wife took exceptional care of our cat, Sophie, for about two weeks while we were on a cruise in Alaska. They provided daily updates with photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing Sophie was in great hands. Sophie can be quite vocal, especially when it comes to food, but they handled her quirks wonderfully. We were able to fully enjoy our trip, thanks to their attentive care and excellent communication. We are incredibly grateful and highly recommend them as sitters!”
“Sherry is an amazing caregiver. Our dogs are a bonded pair and she took extra care with that in mind. She kept up to date each day with pictures and how they were doing. Sherry is so loving and sweet and truly cares for her furry guests. Highly recommended Sherry if your looking for a trustworthy and loving pet provider.”
“Avery is absolutely wonderful! She’s so sweet and caring, and my dog Munch loves going to her house. He felt comfortable right away and got along perfectly with her cats—no issues at all. It’s clear that Avery has a natural way with animals and provides a warm, welcoming environment. I always feel at ease knowing Munch is happy and well cared for with her. Highly recommend!”
“Shelby was awesome. Got in touch with her at the last minute to watch my baby and she went above and beyond to help me. LJ seemed to love her and I felt so safe leaving her with Shelby. Will definitely ask Shelby to watch her again if I am ever in the area. Thank you again Shelby. Gave this fur baby Mom a peace of mind while I was away”
“She was amazing! My dogs were so tired when I picked them up from all the fun they had! She was very understanding to my dogs food allergy. She was great at communicating and sending photos. I will for sure book with her again!”
“Jasmyne is phenomenal!! I have a lot of anxiety when leaving my baby with anyone because he is so hyper. I'm afraid he'll be mistreated. After meeting with her, I was instantly at ease. She communicated with me the entire time. And also sent a lot of photos. She is top tier!!”
“Cassidee was great! She kept an amazing line of communication and kept us posted on all our dogs activities and day to day! We look forward to having our dog visit with her again. Thank you!”
About: I lost my two dogs back to back within the past few years and my heart is empty but not ready to get a new dog. I’m retired from the Air Force and a stay ant home mom and have lots of time to care for pets . I’m very active and absolutely love dogs and understand the crucial importance of exercise and activity to their health. Available currently weekends and evenings only since I work full time. I am planning on retiring next year at which time I will be ready to try this full time. I will respect and follow instructions exactly as a former pet owner, I understand how important it is to follow owner’s wishes when it comes to pet care.
“Summer was amazing with our lab Lilly. She communicated with me great, sent pictures and updates. She was flexible with drop off and pick up times as we were going out of town. We will definitely use Summer again because our pup came home in the best mood unlike when we've boarder her in the past.”
“Great experience. It's easy to see right away that Stephanie is an animal lover. We will definitely use her again! Thank you so much Stephanie. I think Casey is already missing you.”
“I have just moved to the area and always left my baby lol with people that I knew and I knew no one in a strange town. Rover helped me find the perfect person, Mike and his family, and it was amazing. I’m really not sure that my dog wanted to come back home with me 🤪 my business trip went well, especially knowing that my baby was in good hands. There are not enough words to tell you how wonderful they were to him. I will definitely call again!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Boylston
We cannot recommend Emily enough! From the moment we met her, her confidence, deep knowledge, and calm demeanor immediately put us at ease. She provides a structured, dog-centered environment driven by genuine care, and her expertise shines through in everything she does. What really stood out to us was her consistency—her communication was like clockwork, giving us total peace of mind while we were away. You can truly feel her love and thoughtfulness for dogs in the way she interacts with them. Our pup, Griffon, had an amazing time, and we already know he will be back to visit Emily and Huxley again soon! If you are looking for someone reliable, skilled, and deeply caring to look after your furry family member, Emily is simply the best.
Jasmyne is awesome! She actively engages with the owner & pet. I felt very comfortable allowing my dog to stay in her care for Boarding. She gave me updates of my dog each day, fed her according to my normal routine, did outdoor play time as I requested. She's very knowledgeable in her work with pets & very professional to work with. This has been a great experience!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Boylston 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 Boylston.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Boylston 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.
