“Our boy had a blast at Terwrin's! We received pictures and updates daily. He even got some couch time! He was happy when we picked him up. Terwrin even had him and his things ready to go, to minimize the chaos, when we arrived. We definitely felt at ease leaving him and will book again. Thank you for showing our Winston some love for a few days!”
“Pippa seemed very happy with her stay. Belinda was so good about sending pics and updating us on how Pippa was doing. We will definitely be requesting her for next time!”
“I can not thank Kristin enough for taking care of my girl while we were away at softball games. I was so worried my dog would be upset that we left her but she seemed to have a great time! I received pictures and updates daily! I would absolutely recommend her with your dog and if I'm ever in the area again I would love to have her watch my girl again 🐾💜🐾”

About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for animals. I have a love for big and small! Ever since I was 11 years old and received my very own fur baby our house has never been empty of one. We treat our animals like they are family and I will care for yours the same way! I an a SAHM so I am mostly free! Just have to pick up our son from school around 2:30 in the afternoons but other than that I am available! We just recently lost our 9 year old German shepherd so I know and am comfortable with senior dogs! We now just have our Siberian husky Myia who is our old lady lol I will take care of your animals with love as I do with mine and also play with them!
“Ray and Sherry were absolutely wonderful. Our dog is very nervous and timid and they were extremely knowledgeable and understanding with her throughout the entire process. They did not force themselves onto her and waited until she was comfortable for closer interaction. We received many updates with photos which allowed us to relax while we were on vacation to know our dog was being well taken care of. The environment was clean and calm and we felt comfortable leaving our dog there. Our dog came home and did not seem "traumatized" as she has been with other boarding experiences in the past. Communication throughout the process was great. When we need to board our dog again, we will absolutely use them in the future. We are so thankful.”
“Jessica was a last-minute reservation to keep Shelby for me as I had to fly out of the country. She gave me updates daily on him with pictures of how well he was doing, and I’m amazed because Shelby is such a mama’s boy that it’s too funny that he adapted to other people as well as he did I will definitely”
“Melanie is great. I feel so confident that my dog is being well taken care of and that he's happy and having a good time. She keeps in touch with update emails. I can't say enough good things about her. I'm so happy to find someone I trust to keep my dog when I have to be away.”
“Linda was super hospitable as always. Rosie had the best time and enjoyed the play time with other pups. I appreciate Linda’s flexibility and willingness to make schedule adjustments. Look forward to our next trip.”
“Emalie took great care of our dog! She was flexible and willing to work with us on what was best for our schedule. She was patient with our dog and welcomed her with open arms. Would rebook in the future!”
About: Pregnant, nursing, newborn, adolescent, adult and senior, large or small, I have had them all. Many breeds either in my home or friends animals I have cared for. Need medication given? Not a problem, special diet, even injections, your pets will be loved and well cared for. My home has acres to run and play on, 2 separate fenced areas if pets need to be separated. Do they like to swim? My pond is their pond during their stay and I can bath them for you before they go home. I am a stay at home, homeschooling mom. Very rarely will your babies be alone at my home. They will have attention and care most of the day and night, everyday. My home is pet friendly. Fully fenced yard, with separate fenced back yard. Multiple dog beds that my dogs would be happy to share with yours, don’t forget sofa snuggles. If crating is needed, we have that as well. We have a dog door that opens into the backyard so pets can come and go if they want on their own. Need your dog bathed before he comes home? Just say the word.

Terwrin was great! Communication and photos were appreciated. Phoebe looked like she had a great time and when I picked her up, she wasn’t sure if she should go with me or back with her Terwrin, which makes me know that she was happy there. I would definitely use her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Elberta is $32 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $53 per night. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 390 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elberta. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
98% of sitters in Elberta 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 Elberta 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 Elberta.
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.
You and your Elberta 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.
