“Great Sitter! My dogs loved being with the family and she was able to introduce them comfortably to her cats. She also made sure they got exercise everyday and sent lots of pictures with updates. Was super glad we chose her and will be using Danielle again :)”
“Chelsea was absolutely amazing with our puppy Nora. She always gave her all the attention she needed and loved Nora like she was her dog. Her family was also amazing and helped Nora get much needed socialization and playtime. I would absolutely recommend Chelsea and her wonderful family to anyone in need of any services she can offer for your pet!”
“I could tell from the pictures Rachael shared with me of Buster Brown that he was very happy spending the weekend with her family. I think he even got to share a princess tent with her daughter!! I felt like Rachael and family loved my sweet boy and missed him after I picked him. It’s great to know your best friend is so well taken care of!”
“Chris and his family were wonderful! We booked last minute and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Super communicative and loved on our pups like they were his own. We Will be booking with Chris whenever we need a sitter.”

“Hannah took amazing care of Bella and treated her like one of their own. I received daily updates along with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It could tell Bella was happy and comfortable. The communication was excellent, and I highly recommend Hannah.”
“Bongo had the absolute best weekend with Sydney and Joshua! We were updated throughout the day on how he was doing with photos. They gave him lots of love and attention, and their pups were the sweetest to him! Highly recommend!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ashley was absolutely wonderful! My reservation was from October 9–13, and she went above and beyond by picking up my baby Ace from the kennels. From the very start, she made me feel completely at ease. She sent frequent updates and adorable pictures that showed just how much Ace was being loved and spoiled. 🐾❤️ It’s clear she truly cares for the pets she watches—Ace came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. I’m so grateful for her kindness and professionalism. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
About: Ive cared for cats and dogs for almost a decade. I am a stay-at-home mom and have plenty of time for round the clock pet care. I provide overnight stays, dog walking and drop in visits. I have well trained dogs that would love to play and kids that are eager to keep your pets busy. I am a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule. I am free to walk dogs and have a spacious backyard. I have cat experience and space for cats to have privacy. I have a spacious backyard, a spare room for pets to have their own space if they need it, and my dogs are kennel trained should the animals need space from each other.
“I've relied on Teresa multiple times and most recently had a last minute booking for an emergency and she was extremely helpful and accommodating. My dogs always came back happy and well taken care of and will keep using her for future stays!”
“Kimberly has a very clean and welcoming home. She also has a small, friendly dog, along with cats and chickens, and it is clear she is truly an animal lover. She was very attentive to Lulu and made me feel comfortable leaving my fur baby in her care. Kimberly mentioned that Lulu was her first Rover sit, but honestly, it felt like she had been doing this for a while. She sent photos and videos, provided reassurance, and kept me updated throughout Lulu’s stay. I highly recommend Kimberly! I left in a rush because I did not account for the time zone change while heading back home, but I wanted to make sure she knew how much I appreciated her watching Lulu.”
About: I have taken care of pets from puppies to 100+ lbs since I was a young child. I have experience with petsitting my families pets and bathing them. I work part-time, only from 4.5-8 hour shifts with breaks in between. Scheduling a few days in advance works best and anytime on my off days! I am in an upstairs apartment, fenced in. I have a medium sized fur baby to keep your pet company or if needed can keep separated. I have a crate if needed and toys for them to play with. Pets are allowed on the couch/bed. I offer bath time as well for a small extra fee!
“Some people you just know you can trust early on when you meet them and Ramona is one of those people. She asks the questions you expect an experienced sitter to ask and has a safe and comfortable place for your pooch to stay.”
About: Many years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to seniors needing extra care. Ready to care for them like they are my own! I’m full time retired, I have a lot of time on my hands to watch fur babies! I have the transportation and time to come to any home to watch them or bring them back to mine. I have a 3 bedroom home, I currently have 3 of my own sweet cats inside, I have 4 that roam outside on their own feee will. They get fed in the morning cans & have dry food throughout the day when they please. They’re all fixed & trained if they are living fully inside.
“Sage did a great job with our puppy! He has a lot of energy and has a mischievous personality but Sage had patience and loved him like her own. I was sent daily pictures and updated on his shenanigans on a regular basis. We will definitely be repeat customers!”
“Savannah and her family are amazing. They have a large home, a huge backyard and really do love dogs. She sent tons of pictures and was very responsive to all my messages. Highly recommend her.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Rucker
We couldn't have asked for a better dog-sitting experience! Having daily picture updates gave us a complete peace of mind and allowed us to have a truly stress-free vacation. It was so clear that the entire family treated our pup like one of their own, showering her with love and plenty of belly rubs. We will be definitely booking with them again. Highly recommended!
Derek was an amazing sitter. He had our dog in his home for 4 days while we were on vacation. He took her to the park, played with her and kept us engaged with a great many photos and videos. Our dog looked so happy we were concerned she may not want to come home. We highly recommend.

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.
100% of Fort Rucker 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 Fort Rucker 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 Fort Rucker 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 Fort Rucker.
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 Fort Rucker 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.
