“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!”
“Belinda was great with our two pups, handled all the intricacies and their needs with ease. The next time we’re in the area and need to board she will be our first call. Thank you!!”
“Michael was incredibly accommodating and helpful to our family with a last minute request to board. He was welcoming to our dog (as were his own sweet pooches) and his house has a terrific set up for pets. Highly recommend and thank you!!!”
“Sue, Gary, and Newman were wonderful hosts for our chocolate lab, River. Newman and River were fast friends! We received many updates and photos and couldn’t have been more pleased with the care he received. Their home is set up perfectly for labs! Big backyard, a sandy area for digging. River was quite pleased! I think he was sad to leave them! We will definitely book with them again if we are in the area.”
“Kenneth watched our pup, Onyx, in his home for 1 week. Kenneth was absolutely wonderful to work with! He took wonderful care of Onyx— so much so that we weren’t sure if Onyx would want to come home! Kenneth communicated with us frequently, sent photos and put our minds at ease while traveling! We can’t wait to work with Kenneth in the future!”
“Elaine took great care of my dog while I was away on a family emergency. It was comforting to know my girl was in good hands while I was dealing with a stressful situation.”
“Erica kept our dogs for a full week and we are thrilled and impressed with her care and communication. When she says she’ll treat your dog just like they’re hers, it’s not a cliche. She means it! We have no complaints. Erica exceeded all of our expectations. Ted and Aria love you and so do we. You’re family now.”
About: I've cared for pets (mine and others) my whole life. I can't count the number of pets I've had... During my childhood, we kept every stray that wandered up! I love all animals and look forward to meeting your babies!! I work from home so I can sit days or nights. I have a big backyard, a dog door and extra dog beds. Slumber Party!! Bring your own bones! I have a dog and a cat that stay inside most of the time but they do use a dog door to the fenced backyard. We eat morning and night. Welcoming friends!
“The best dog care you could ever have. Very friendly, right on time. Everything is comfortable, the service, you can trust her with your dog, worries free. She really makes time to play with your dog and give so much care. She deserve more than the pay she ask for, you will never regret boarding the dog to her, they got back yard and your dog will have so much fun.”
“Emily is wonderful because she has a peaceful and calm demeanor and she truly cares for your pet. I will definitely bring my dog, who is 14.5 years old, back to Emily to take care of her, when I come back for vacation. Thank you, Emily, for your outstanding care and support.”
“Joy was great! I knew my Bear was in great hands with Joy. She kept me up to date on my dog’s daily activities and was a ‘joy’ to work with. :) I definitely recommend, and will be a returning customer!!”
“Peggy was awesome to work with. She was great in communicating every day letting me know how Edmund was doing as well as sending multiple pictures showing me how he was. 10/10 Thank you again.”
“Cheryl was great! 5 stars. I could tell immediately that she would really care about Lola and she did. She was a great communicator and a joy to work with –we’ll definitely ask her again.”
“Miriah is the best!!!! Cannot stress enough how wonderfully your pet will be cared for, she went above and beyond. She sent plenty of daily photos of my girls at the park, lounging around, getting treats, and just down right pampered! I was concerned my dogs wouldn’t even want to come home again! Book her with absolute confidence❤️?”
“Nicole was so nice and cared for my two Aussie babies for two nights while I was out of town. I loved getting pictures throughout my trip. She took them out for walks and they looked so happy and comfortable with her. 10/10 recommend! Will definitely be back💕”
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.
“I’m so grateful to Jessica! She was fantastic. I reached out last minute and she was able to make time to do a meet and greet and then agreed to keep Buddy. She was so down to earth, easy to work with, and great with Buddy. He was attached to her like Velcro. And her dog, Pasta, is so good natured and even played with Buddy some! This was my first time using Rover and Jessica made it a wonderful experience.”
“Susan was a wonderful sitter and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who is kind and accommodating to take care of their dog. She sent regular updates that included pictures and made us feel at ease that our dog was being well taken care of. Our dog seemed relaxed and comfortable and had plenty of attention and time outside. Thank you Susan!”

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.

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 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, 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 , 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 .
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.
