“Callie is the best! I got so many pictures and updates about my pup and he looked so happy in all of them!! She has so many toys and activities for them to do!! I don't think he wanted to leave, it's like doggie Disneyland!”
“Ann was such a wonderful pet sitter for our 1 year old cavapoo! We left town for 2 weeks for our wedding and honeymoon and I was a wreck about leaving her for the first time. Boarding did not feel right and when I did a home visit with Ann my pup and I felt immediately at home! I knew she would be cared for in a loving home environment and we got updates daily with how she was doing, with photos. Thank you so much Ann, we will definitely be in touch in the future!”
“Olivia was incredibly accommodating. I reached out and booked at the last minute to help a fellow grandmother with boarding her two fur babies, and she made the entire process easy and stress-free. Because I was rushing and didn’t know much about the pups, I didn’t realize (or think to ask) that one of them might be in heat. Olivia typically doesn’t accept pups in heat, but given the emergency situation, she graciously worked with us anyway. She even provided pick-up and drop-off, which was a huge help. When she brought them back, it was clear the pups really liked her, and that told me everything. They were well cared for and comfortable with her. I absolutely recommend Olivia for your fur baby boarding needs!”
“Was very accommodating and good energy. Took very good care of our puppies. We had 3 large dogs they took care of for the weekend and dropped off at our house.”
“Ileana was very responsive when we first reached out and we were able to do a meet and greet which was great! We received daily pictures and we could tell Kona had a great time with Ileana. Drop off and pick up were great too and we will for sure contact Ileana on the future. Thank you!”
About: Iv taken care of my dogs and friends dogs for as long as I can remember. I believe that dogs are our children and it’s important for you to trust the person taking care of them! I’m home on Saturday and Sundays all day and Monday, Wednesday and Friday I work doubles so I would take them out before work and on break and after work. And my family will also take them out with our dogs! I have a large fenced in yard. I have two dogs, Cooper and Bowser. Cooper is super sweet and good with other dogs. Bowser is a Maltese Chihuahua mix and barks a lot but doesn’t bite. My grandpa lets the dogs out in the backyard about every hour and I will walk your dog on my breaks and before work!
“Caroline was absolutely amazing with our sweet Jackson! We needed a sitter the same day, and she came through for us without hesitation. She kept us updated, communicated every step of the way, and treated Jackson like he was her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend Caroline to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur baby. Thank you again ..we’ll definitely be booking with you in the future!”
“This staycation for Nadia was great. Taylor is so pleasant and is happy to really make our doggie comfortable. It's a big house with a big yard but I think Nadia spent most of her time sleeping on the couch...just like home. Taylor sent me pictures of Nadia and I knew I made the right choice. Thank you, Taylor. Thank you, Rover. Elliot”
“We had an amazing experience! Our puppy was so well cared for and got tons of attention and play time. Communication was excellent; Anna was highly responsive and sent updates throughout the stay, which gave us great peace of mind. We will absolutely use her services again!”
“Gabrielle went way above and beyond while looking after my two dogs! They enjoyed at least two walks per day and frequent visits and lots of TLC, as well as some unexpected perks regarding behavior modification, i.e. she got one of my dogs to bark less! She was an absolute gem and frequently sent videos and photos of my dogs when I was away for three nights. I highly recommend using Gabrielle for your next special friend sitter!”
About: I’ve owned various animals since I was little and have always been the one to feed, bathe, and overall take care and love on them! I’m a college student with currently all AM classes ending at 12 pm. I am free Mondays, Wednesday, and Friday after 12, Tuesdays and thursdays after 11, and free anytime on the weekends! In my home I have a back porch that is fenced in, I also use leashes and harness to take my dogs on walks outside in nature and own a crate for a small dog that I can definitely use for other animals if the owner requested so!
“my dogs LOVE mia and their family! i usually get home from a trip and get the cold shoulder or anxiety from my boys. this time i think they miss mia as much as they missed me! mia sent me frequent photos and in every single one my boys were having a blast 🧡 i could tell mia really cared about their wellbeing! their medication schedules and my one boy being on prescription food makes me nervous about going to a kennel with so many dogs that they could potentially get looked over. no shade to those businesses but with senior dogs needing specialized care im so grateful we found mia. will definitely be repeat customers!”
“These are the best dog sitters you will find! They are always sending you tons of great pics and updates about your pup and you can tell they really love taking care of your furry family member. They provide a great home environment for pups. Will definitely use them again when I’m back in the area and would highly recommend them to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Susan was fantastic with our dog, Duke. She was very responsive, caring, and sent lots of photos and videos throughout his stay, which gave us great piece of mind. We really appreciated the updates and attention she gave him. We would absolutely book with Susan again and highly recommend her!”
“Morgan helped us out on short notice with the care of our golden retriever. Drop off and pick up was truly a pleasure, Morgan has a wonderful personality! We look forward to booking her again.”
“Friendly, warm household, took incredible care of our pup, and stayed in constant contact with us to make sure our minds were at ease. If you're looking for a pet sitter, you've officially found her.”

Kate was the best choice I could have made to board my dogs with. She communicated clearly from the start and throughout the entire time of the boarding. I recieved pictures and updates multiple times a day. There was no stone left unturned or request not responded to. At no time did I think my dogs were not well taken care of. I suggest you choose Kate if you are looking for a private boarder.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
