“Lark and her family are amazing! She sent lots of texts updating me how our pup was doing while we were away. Ollie got lots of attention and was happy to be in their home. We will definitely check her availability first the next time we need pet care.”
“Kona absolutely loves staying here! He gets so excited every time we arrive, which gives me so much peace of mind. Emily takes such great care of him and always keeps me updated with photos and messages. It’s clear that he feels comfortable and happy while he’s there. I truly appreciate the love and attention she gives him. Highly recommend!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter to take care of my dog while I was out of town for two weeks. From the very beginning, she was warm, reliable, and experienced with dogs. She made me feel completely at ease leaving my fur baby in her care. Throughout the stay, she provided updates, photos, and messages, which meant so much to me. My dog looked happy, relaxed, and well-loved in every photo. It was clear he was getting plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. When I came back, my dog was happy, healthy, and clearly had bonded with her and her dogs. I’m so thankful for the level of care she provided—it truly felt like he was part of her family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and trustworthy sitter.”
“Last minute savior!!! Lee Ann made sure I was up to date on Luke and kept me informed! I got pictures and videos and he looked so happy when leaving, but still wanted to say Goodbye. Thank you so much for helping and taking care of our old man Luke!”
“Shelby did an excellent job with our pup! She sent plenty of photos to keep up-to-date and was very understanding when we were not able to pick our pup up at the scheduled time. Highly recommend her for future dog sits!”
“Our dog seemed to enjoy her time at Summer's! We received photos during our trip, which we really appreciated. She lives on a lot of open space with a big backyard, which was perfect for our high energy pup.”
“Brian and his wife took exceptional care of our cat, Sophie, for about two weeks while we were on a cruise in Alaska. They provided daily updates with photos, which gave us peace of mind knowing Sophie was in great hands. Sophie can be quite vocal, especially when it comes to food, but they handled her quirks wonderfully. We were able to fully enjoy our trip, thanks to their attentive care and excellent communication. We are incredibly grateful and highly recommend them as sitters!”
“Avery is absolutely wonderful! She’s so sweet and caring, and my dog Munch loves going to her house. He felt comfortable right away and got along perfectly with her cats—no issues at all. It’s clear that Avery has a natural way with animals and provides a warm, welcoming environment. I always feel at ease knowing Munch is happy and well cared for with her. Highly recommend!”
“Kel accepted my 2 small dogs at the last minute as we were traveling through Montgomery and needed a good nights sleep before driving 12 hours the next day. She also brought the dogs to our hotel the next morning. Thanks Kel”
“Justyce was great with Koda! She was kind, dependable, and took wonderful care of him while I was away. Koda seemed happy and comfortable with her, which gave me peace of mind. I’d definitely recommend Justyce and book with her again”
“We are glad we found Chandler. Our pup loved her yard and running around with her chickens. She was very communicative and accommodating when I made an error in my booking and needed adjustments. Thank you Chandler. We will use your services again.”
“We would highly recommend Tracy for keeping your dog. He and his wife Tammy treated our dog Spirit like she was theirs. She was allowed most any where in the house. Tracy did her favorite thing by walking her 4 times a day. He gave us progress reports an pictures every day. So that we didn’t miss her quite as bad. We will definitely be leaving her with him again.”
“Sherry was awesome! She sent updates about Daisy’s stay throughout the weekend which was so nice to hear how she was doing. She even gave Daisy a bath after she got dirty in some mud! Above and beyond! Would definitely book again.”
“Jasmyne is the best sitter I have ever had. She is patient and understanding with the little soldier for satan that we love called Ares!! Book with her. You won't be disappointed!!”
“Cassidee was great! She kept an amazing line of communication and kept us posted on all our dogs activities and day to day! We look forward to having our dog visit with her again. Thank you!”
“Ann Marie did an outstanding job watching my pups while we were on vacation. She sent pictures, made a phone call to us, and went above and beyond to hunt down a fence escaped pup. I will 100% be back!”
“John and Missy are wonderful folks! They took great care of our little dog. They kept us updated throughout her stay and treated her like she was their own.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 85 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elmore. 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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Elmore 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 Elmore.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Elmore 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.
