“They took really good care of our dog, she sent pictures and updates while we were out of town. I would highly recommend them to care for your pet! I feel like we have new friends as well! Their home is set up with a doggie door, dog ramps, and a safely fenced in back yard. It really puts your mind at ease, when having to leave your pet.”
About: We have raised and take care of all three of our dogs! We also pet sit my sister’s Golden Retriever sometimes! This includes feeding, walking, playing, exercising, bathing, etc. We have crate and potty trained all three of our personal pets. Our dogs sleep with us at night and are allowed on our furniture. Any dog we keep is treated like our own! My husband and I both work full time jobs, but my husband Brandon is a school teacher so he is home all summer. Your dogs are rarely ever crated… only if we have an errand to run. Our typical weekend is spent at the dog park, in the drive thru at Dunkin’ for pup cups, and lounging on the couch! My husband is home during the summer, and we have a fenced in backyard, so the dogs are let out to play and potty multiple times during the day. We feed our dogs twice a day- once in the morning & once at night, but let us know if you have a different schedule and we will keep your dog on it! We have three dogs of our own that sleep with us at night and are allowed on our furniture. Blu is three and loves to play with new friends! Ellie is four and would prefer to lay on her bed and chew her bone! Any dog we keep is treated like our own!
“It was our first time using Rover, so naturally we were a little skeptical. We wanted our pups to feel as if they were at home as much as possible while we were away. Kira was excellent from the very beginning! After our initial phone conversation, we felt very comfortable boarding our dogs with her. Each day we received pictures, they seemed happy and well taken care of. We will definitely be return customers!!”
“Hope was awesome! I would definitely recommend her if you are looking for someone to care for your pet! She loves animals and loved on our dog like she was hers! Hope kept me updated with pictures and videos the whole time! Our dog loved her stay with Hope and we will definitely be back ?”
“Johnny and Meaghan were absolutely wonderful! We will use them everytime from now on. They treat them like family. We received photos and videos throughout their stay. You won’t regret leaving your babies here.”
“Becky went above and beyond to make sure our baby was happy and healthy. She has an amazing yard for outdoor play, and makes sure the animals feel comfortable inside her home as well. We were so grateful for the many updates and quick responses to any questions we had. We will definitely be going to Becky for all of our future pet sitting needs ?”
“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.”
“This was my first time using Rover for my dogs. Shaquita helped make it a five star experience. She was easy to communicate with. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. She sent me pictures and videos of my dogs. My dogs seemed to have enjoyed their time with Shaquita in her home. I would definitely have them stay with her again. Thank you very much!!”
“Grizz , my 8 y.o. Lab mix stayed at Stephanie's for a week , while my family and I were on vacation. Grizz has not been himself lately with the effects of pain medication and simply getting old. Unfortunately he had a few incidents of peeing indoors . Stephanie was very patient with our Grizz. If you need a loving home for your dog to stay at while away , Stephanie and her family will treat your pet as their own.”
“We drop Caspian off with Benjamin all the time and he loves to go over and spend time at Benjamin’s house! I get wonderful pictures of them playing while we’re out of town and I would love to recommend him to anyone thinking about booking here!”
“Brittany is such a dog lover that cared for our Bailey as if he were part of her own family which includes 3 well behaved and adorable dogs. Brittany takes one client at a time so you can feel peace of mind knowing your dog will be well cared for in a space that is just right. Thank you Brittany! Helen & Dan”
“We really felt that Bailey came back to us happy and like she had a great time! We really appreciated the walks and care Bailey got while staying with Jessica and Jeffrey! Sincerely so thankful for their time with our girl!”
“This was the best Rover experience we've ever had. Highly recommend. Franklin had such a good time, he was worn out when he got home. Great communication and Tiffany was so good to send pictures and video pupdates. 5/5”
“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!”

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.
