About: I am an animal lover looking to make a little extra income while working 5 day a week job as well. I have had dogs and cats all my life, so I am experienced. I also have 2 kids, for boarding, pups would need to well experienced with kids as well as other dogs! We have a fenced in yard and the dogs can be separated. I can watch the fur babies on weekends or nights of the week as well, if needed. I do some grooming as well, so bath and groom can be added. Owners can specify anything else needed. I work 8-5 currently 5 days a week so it would be after work time mostly 5-7 or local in my lunch break 11 or 1 . Fenced in yard they go out to play 2-3 times a day and get fed before bed. They are placed in kennels to eat as well as sleep.
“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.”

“Very pleased with our days of boarding our dog with Samantha. Very friendly family, great experience, lots of good communication and pictures. Would highly recommend, and would also reuse this family in the future.”

“Wow! These are some of the nicest people I’ve meet. Our bulldog Cooper felt like home. He played and played and played. They sent us a ton of photos of Cooper. I would highly recommend them 100%.”

“Chauncey & Margeaux loved their time with Michelle. She is so caring and was very accommodating with Chauncey’s medicine schedule. We’ll definitely be booking with her again.”

“Taylor is amazing! She and her family welcomed my kitties, Lucius and Bella, into their home with welcome arms. It was a stressful week as we made settlement on our new home, but one thing I did not need to worry about was my cats as I knew they were well cared for by Taylor.”

“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!”

“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.”

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!
“Tammie was amazing to our boy Oliver! We received updates and pictures regularly, multiple times a day. We feel like Ollie was on a vacation while staying with her 😊 We definitely coming back next time we need a dog sitter! ❤️”

“Krystal is an amazing, caring, and attentive dog sitter. She took such great care of our dog while we were on vacation to Gulf shores. Our dog has a lot of anxiety when we leave her and when we dropped her off, I could tell she felt more at ease with Krystal and also got along very well with her dog. Krystal sent us updates and photos the whole time we were away which we loved! It was wonderful not having to worry about our dog while we were away as we knew she was in such great care with Krystal. I highly recommend Krystal!”


About: I’ve had six years of kennel experience at places like doggy day cares and currently am employed at a vet clinic! At my jobs, I have been responsible for special cases such as dogs with health conditions and giving medications. I also have experience with home visits/overnight stays with clients as well! I currently am employed full time at a vet clinic working as a lead kennel assistant, this means I am responsible for the cats and dogs that are staying the night at our facility! The beginning of my day would be dedicated to your pet then I’m off to work at 7:00 am. I would return for mid-day care at 10:00-11:00 am. Once I’m off work I’d be back for the end of day around 5:30-6:00 pm! With my experience at not only at doggy day cares but vet clinics I know just how important it is to be attentive towards our pets! Especially pets with medical issues or issues that are common in certain breeds! With my training I can provide a safe and trusting environment that will let owners feel at ease when they are not home!
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Fairhope is $38
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fairhope
Katie was very kind to our senior English Shepherd Scout. She met with us the day before Scout stayed with her. It was very easy to talk to Katie and explain her needs. We arranged drop off and pickup times very easily. We highly recommend Katie as a dog caregiver and will definitely arrange for Scout to stay with her whenever we return to the area.

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.

There are 299 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Fairhope. About 94% of Fairhope sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
