“Our girls enjoyed every minute of there extended stay with Lark and her family. From the moment we dropped them off she sent us regular updates and just pictures and videos showing us how they were settling in. As we travel often and they have to be with a sitter at times we are happy to have found Lark. We will definitely use them as our sitters again and refer them to anyone looking for quality pet sitters.”
“Christina and Austin were wonderful. We did a meet and greet first for Millie to meet their cat. Millie is a little timid with new people but within hours of being with them, I was getting pictures of Millie warning up and eventually laying across their laps. They treated her like their own and that gave me so much peace of mind. I will definitely use them again in the future and highly recommend them.”
“Katie is truly the best. Every time Munch goes to her house, he lights up with pure joy. He adores playing with her little one and running around with his doggy buddies—he settles in so quickly, it’s like he’s been part of their family forever. Katie gives me such peace of mind. She sends regular updates, little snapshots of Munch living his best life, and I can tell he feels completely at home. Honestly, her place has become Munch’s second home. I’m incredibly grateful that she watched Munch for 10 whole days over Thanksgiving. While I was enjoying the holiday, Munch was basically on his own dream vacation—pampered, happy, and surrounded by love. Katie, thank you for treating my boy like your own. You’re a gem. 💛”
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Timothy and Gabriela did a great job watching our 2 dogs - very easy to communicate with and they provided updates on how the dogs were doing! We appreciated how flexible and attentive they were! We plan to book them again in the future.”
“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!”
“Chandler is wonderful!!! This was our 1st time using her on Rover and she was quick to reply and kept us constantly updated with pictures on our pups. We will definitely be using her again!”
“John & Missy were great with my Jack Russell pup. They kept us in communication throughout the entire time plus kept him busy and active. My pup had so much fun with them he literally stared at their home while we were leaving after pickup. I highly recommend them to anyone who is thinking about using their service. They even gave us a parting gift and tips on how to manage our pup when we picked him up. Also this was a last minute situation for us having to leave town in an emergency situation, they were very sweet and professional and took great care of us during short notice, Missy stayed up late to ensure we would not go without help during this time which we really appreciate them for being patient and helping us.”
“Tiffany and her family were absolutely amazing with Circe. They updated me everyday with pictures and messages, which made this first timer very happy. I’ve never left my baby with anyone other than family, but I will certainly reach out to Tiffany again in the future!”
“Cassie is one of the best dog sitters I've had to take care of my dogs. She truly cares and ensured my dogs were comfortable and adjusted on the first encounter. She readily communicated any needs and concerns so regarding my dogs to ensure I had peace of mind and felt at ease being overseas and far away from my dogs. I sincerely appreciate who She is and her passion for dogs. Will recommend her without any reservation.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 80 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elmore. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 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.
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 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.
