“Steven welcomed our two sister mini-dachshunds into his house for a week while my family went on vacation. As these are senior dogs (15+), they do have some special needs, but Steven handled both with care and attention while sending us daily updates with pictures. We are so grateful for Steven and his family for the care they gave to our babies.”
“Thank you Kelly & Brian for making this process a breeze. This was my first time using the app and I would definitely book with you again. The updates and photos put me at ease, ensuring my little one was comfortable. Again thank you for everything!”
“Dalis is by far the most thorough dog sitter in the world. She sent daily pictures and even a couple videos to keep me updated with how my dog was adjusting.Choose Dalis If you want superior care for your pet.”
“We had Melanie keep our little man for the first time while we were out of town for 7 days. She sent us several pictures every day with an update on his wellbeing. The peace of mind we had while away was immeasurable and we cannot thank Melanie enough for taking wonderful care of our sweet baby! 🐾 Thank you again! 🩷🐾”
“Such a wonderful and caring place to leave your fur babies. 🥰 Mrs. Donna and her husband will take good care of your babies while you are away. They will be treated just like family! Five stars and then some! Definitely recommend!!!❤️❤️❤️”
“I really appreciated how Kira took the time to answer all of my questions and learn about Tucker’s needs before booking the stay. It was very important to me to find the right place for him since it was our first time away since we adopted him. Communication was great! Tucker seemed to have a great time and I was able to relax on our vacation. I would definitely let Tucker stay with her again”
“I found Hope last minute for a 2 week trip. She immediately sent me a message asking about my pups and letting me know that she keeps their schedules as much the same as possible. This edged out the other offer I received (the other person just accepted my request but never sent a follow up message). The dogs were at ease with her immediately. She sent me pictures of the dogs every day with updates. I was concerned if my pups would want to come home with me! They had a great time and Hope was aweosme! I will definitely use Hope again!”
“Our fur baby enjoyed his stay, he got lots of playtime and attention with Meaghan and her kiddos❤️ she kept in touch with pics and videos and eased all my anxiety with leaving him while on vacation,we highly recommend and will be using her in the near future!”
“Was a little nervous about leaving Addie with a "new person" after 5 years with another sitter, but Stephanie was fabulous! Addie was treated like one of the family. Received photos and videos of our pooch every day while away. It was clear that Addie was having a great time and being treated with much love. Can't adequately express our appreciation!!!”
“Auburn was absolutely the best possible person we could have found to care for my mom's dog. She was kind, flexible, understanding, and totally amazing. My mom had to accompany her partner to an out of town medical facility, immediately after he received a surprise terminal diagnosis. She was very worried about her dog. Auburn picked Ginger up, took great care of her, sent regular pictures and updates, and dropped Ginger off after my mom got home, late at night. She was beyond accommodating and I would recommend her to anyone. If we ever have another need for service, we hope and pray Auburn will be available.”
“We enjoyed our experience leaving our dog with Benjamin. She came home happy and looked like she was well taken care of. We received several pictures of her while we were gone. We would definitely book with Benjamin again. He was easy to communicate with us and happy to show us around his facilities.”
“Danielle was an absolute lifesaver for us! My senior dog has anxiety, and has never stayed with a non-family member, so leaving her for 5 days was initially a bit daunting. However, Danielle was incredibly patient and understanding, and her calm demeanor really helped my pup settle in. Daily text updates and photos provided peace of mind. The photos clearly showed that she was comfortable and captured adorable moments of her relaxing. It was evident how well my dog was cared for. Danielle followed all instructions, and the home was clean. Booking is highly recommended!”
“Rocco’s stay was wonderful and he was very well cared for during his Time with Becky. She was very accommodating to my schedule and that was a HUGE help! I was doing a road trip and arrival and pick up times were not set in stone. I would not hesitate to use Becky again for boarding. Thanks Becky!”
“Brittany is fantastic! She kept both of our pups. One has really bad anxiety and warmed right up. Brittany also sent pictures and videos while we were gone. We are so thankful we found her, because we know our fur babies are very well taken care of in her hands.”
“Tiffany is an awesome sitter! My 6 month old puppy stayed with her for three days. I was initially worried that he wouldn't be comfortable in a new place but Tiffany was with him the entire day, playing with him and the other dogs, and even kept the puppy on his crate training schedule! She also sent me multiple photos and videos of them playing over the course of the stay. Tiffany is definitely my go-to sitter for the future!”
“Bogie, our 6 month old Maltese, loved staying with Shaquita! She a great communicator and care giver. Loved seeing all the pictures she sent. It eased our minds to know he was having so much fun.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Elkmont on Rover is $27.75 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 Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 245 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elkmont. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
92% of Elkmont sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Elkmont landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Elkmont 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 Elkmont.
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 Elkmont 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.
