We are available for boarding, drop-in visits, dog walking, doggie daycare, & more. I am currently a homeschool mom and have a very flexible schedule. We will be as accommodating as possible for your pets individual needs & treat them as part of our family. We have a huge fenced in back yard. Two girls that love animals more than anything in life. Your dog will have fun and be well cared for while you are out of town! We will send you pictures and updates during your time away. And I can easily crate your dog if needed, (but will only if you do this at home).
About: I've worked with hundreds of dogs over the past 10 years. I specialize in behavioral rehabilitation so i work a lot with rescues and shelters to improve their chances of adoption. I have been professionally training for over five years and have impressive results, especially with potty and kennel training! I have great experience with senior pups and pups with disabilities. I have never turned away a dog from receiving care from me, no matter their problems! My schedule is centered around my pups. I am here with them full time except when i have to leave to do daily walks or check ins! Pups go on one 30 minute walk daily and have unlimited playtime in the fenced yard. if you'd like to add more than one walk let me know!
“Opal was so wonderful! You can really tell she loves animals. I felt very comfortable that my babies were safe and in good hands. They had a blast running around outside and playing with the other dog. She sent me regular updates with photos and videos throughout the day. I look forward to booking with Opal again!”
“We were planning to leave our pups in a large kennel outside because we were only taking a day trip. Last minute, I feel that it is going to be too cold for me to be comfortable leaving them outside. David agreed to take them last minute, easing my concerns. We felt our pups were well cared for during their time with David. He kept us updated on them settling in. He sent us a video of our pups outside, behaving as they would if they were home. All of David's interactions with us during their stay allowed us to enjoy time with our family without concern. We are also sitters so, the fact that I would highly recommend David should speak volumes.”
“Kyler is an awesome dog caretaker, and is very accommodating and easy to work with, and extremely communicative throughout the entire interaction. She treated my pup like her own and kept her engaged and well taken care of for the length of her stay. I won't hesitate recommending her to others looking for a great resource for dog care, and will definitely be rescheduling for my own pup soon!”
“Laura is great! I will definitely book again. She was able to keep my fur baby on short notice with no hesitation. Her home was clean and welcoming with fenced in back yard perfect for pets. My pup is usually very shy, but immediately warmed up to Laura and her husband. Laura kept me up to date on how he was doing throughout the stay and sent pictures as well. She's a great sitter!”
About: Hi, I am Jamie and I’ve taken care of animals since I can remember. I have experience caring for a lot of different animals from horses, cats, a Greyhound, a family Frenchie, hermit crabs, a bearded dragon, and even working at a vets office for some time as a teenager. To now training and raising our Labrador Retriever and offering farm sitting services. My family and I have incredible amounts of enrichment and joy added to our lives because of our animals and yours. I am currently a homeschooling mom so I am available to meet various time frame needs as well as keep some animals in my home. I have a lab that lives playing with other dogs and a cat who is good at hiding from them! We offer a fenced in back yard and walks for your dog. We also keep a very clean home and yard, using only all natural cleaning products and yard sprays. We are a toxin free home. I have a fenced in back yard and am well aware of animal body language and needs. I am good at knowing when dogs need a break and need to be separated. I will be spending a lot of time playing with your animal doing things such as taking them for walks, letting them play with my puppy in the yard, playing fetch, etc. My animals and children can be kept separately from your dog if needed. I can also come to your home to care for your pets. I am trustworthy and honest and able to provide references to attest to such. For the safety of my children and other pets in our home, please do not drop off animals that have been sick in any way within the last 30 days. This includes any kind of worms/parasites that could be spread. We strive to provide a clean and safe environment for our clients. We mop floors, clean crates, wash food and water bowls and remove fecal matter daily. A cleaning fee staring at $50 may apply to any sick animals.
About: I have over nine years of experience caring for dogs, including one year as a boarder. Growing up, I fostered dogs and cared for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I genuinely love spending time with dogs, but since I can’t have one where I live, getting to walk and care for them every day brings me so much joy! Whether your pup needs extra playtime, careful attention, or a dependable walker, I’m here to help. As an online student at UAB, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate walks and pet care throughout any day of the week. I’m usually up by 6 AM, so I’m available for early morning walks if needed. However, I prefer not to do nighttime walks for safety reasons. Whether your pup needs a midday walk or an afternoon play session, I’m happy to be there! I provide pet care in clients’ homes, following all given instructions to ensure consistency and comfort for your dog. Whether it’s walking, exercise, feeding schedules, or crate time, I follow routines closely to keep pets happy and stress-free. I prioritize safety, trust, and personalized care to make sure your pet feels comfortable while you’re away.
About: I adore dogs and would love to take care of your family members. I work from home so I’m able to be a consistent companion during the day, have a fenced yard for play, am active and love to take walks (if your pup likes). My old gal was with us for 17 years so I have elderly dog experience. I’m so excited to love on your dogs. I work from home, so during the week I am here most of the time apart from going to the gym or running errands. On weekends if your pet can’t be left alone for a couple of hours just check in with me at booking! I have a fenced yard, no pets currently, and a son (17) who is super sweet but usually at school or soccer training. I’m able to provide frequent breaks and walks.
About: With over 16 years of experience in animal care, I bring a strong background in both small and large animals, including horses, livestock, and dogs. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics and dog boarding facilities, which gave me hands-on experience with animals of all temperaments and needs. While I value the structure of those settings, I believe in-home care is the most comfortable and stress-free option for most pets. I currently care for two dogs and two horses of my own, and I approach every client’s animal with the same level of respect, patience, and attentiveness I give my own. House Sitting Availability: I’m available for overnight care only, providing feeding, walks, and supervision during the night hours. Drop-In Visits Availability: I can provide up to two drop-in visits per day, including feeding, potty breaks, and basic care. In home boarding : I live in an apartment with a fenced deck, have two friendly dogs, and kids aged 3 and 8. I provide plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I never board more than one family at a time, so your pup gets all the care and attention they need while you’re away. I prioritize safety and trust above all else when caring for pets in your home. Creating a calm, secure environment is essential to help your pets feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I treat your home and pets with the same respect and care I would expect for my own!
“Lawden is amazing! Zeus loves her and loves going over to her house to play. It’s so reassuring to know my pup gets the same love and and affection and correction 😅 he would get at home. Lawden provides a safe and stimulating and social environment for Zeus and he loves going to see her!”
About: Hi! I’m a college athlete home for the summer looking to spend my break doing something I genuinely enjoy — caring for animals. I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, so I’m very comfortable with pets of different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I have experience dog sitting for family and friends, including feeding, walks, playtime, overnight care, and making sure pets stay on their normal routines while their owners are away. As an athlete, I’m very active and dependable, so energetic dogs and long walks are never a problem! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll always treat them like they’re my own. Whether your pet loves playing outside, going on walks, or just relaxing and getting attention, I’m happy to match their needs and personality. I’m available throughout the summer and would love to help make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away! Since I’m home from college for the summer, I have a pretty flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care throughout the week. As a college athlete, I’m used to staying organized, responsible, and active, so fitting walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and check-ins into my routine comes naturally. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening care and can make sure your pets get consistent attention and care while you’re away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by sticking closely to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I’ll follow all instructions carefully for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any specific routines your pet is used to. I know every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I try to make the experience as stress-free as possible. I’m very attentive during walks and outdoor time, and I always prioritize safety by keeping pets supervised and secure. I also make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so they know their pets are doing well while they’re away. Since I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats and have experience pet sitting, I’m comfortable caring for pets with different energy levels, temperaments, and needs. My goal is always to make pets feel relaxed, loved, and well cared for in their own environment.
About: Ever since I can remember, my heart has been filled with love for animals of every kind. From dogs and cats to elephants, horses, birds, pigs, and more, I've got the experience. I started pet sitting for family and friends and volunteering at local farms when I was young, and genuinely love to do it. I believe you do what you love the best. Your fur babies are in good hands. I'm dedicated to providing the utmost care and respect. I love taking photos as well so you can count on me to update you with photos of your cutie! Being a business owner gives me the flexibility to create my own schedule, and my only office mate is my cat. Even he agrees I should leave the house more often. My schedule is flexible and I am able to work on you and your pet’s time. Your fur babies take center stage when they're with me. I'm all about punctuality when it comes to feeding and keeping things clean. When I'm at your home, I understand the importance of you and your pet’s safe space. Showing respect to both your animals and their home is a top priority for me.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Dogwood Point
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 177 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Dogwood Point. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Dogwood Point commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 177 sitters in Dogwood Point, 90% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
