“Johnny and Meaghan were absolutely wonderful! We will use them everytime from now on. They treat them like family. We received photos and videos throughout their stay. You won’t regret leaving your babies here.”
“These two not only truly love dogs, they treat all of their guests like their own Murphy had such a good time the first time there that he whined and barked happily as we drove close the second time. He loves the other dogs, and we plan on boarding with them again in the future. Such a sweet couple.”
“Steven welcomed our two sister mini-dachshunds into his house for a week while my family went on vacation. As these are senior dogs (15+), they do have some special needs, but Steven handled both with care and attention while sending us daily updates with pictures. We are so grateful for Steven and his family for the care they gave to our babies.”
“Kelly took extremely good care of our two pugs. One is 5 and the other is not quite 2. She has a yard where they could run and play which I am sure they loved because we do not have a yard they can play off leash on (more like a tick farm). The boys came home very happy and have collapsed on our laps to recuperate for their next adventure. I will book Kelly & Brian again when the need arises.”
“Shume took amazing care of our dog while we were out of town. He was having an issue with his ear, and she did a great job helping to curb the problem. I would book again with her any time.”
“During the introduction, her dogs were a little aggressive and snipped a few times, but we both thought that we'd give it a try and agreed that they did not get along she could drop him off at my house and could routinely drop by and care for him there. Kristen and her family were great. I was a little nervous about leaving my dog with someone new, but Kristen did such a good job those concerns went away pretty quick. They introduced their dogs with mine at a park beforehand and then routinely followed up with me with how he was doing while I was traveling. Definitely recommend.”
“Madison was absolutely AMAZING with Harley. He was loved, well cared for and extremely happy with her and her family. Madison took great care to keep me posted on how Harley was doing. The daily pictures, videos and contact was excellent and gave me great peace while I was on a two-week trip without him. I highly recommend Madison, and she will be seeing Harley again when I am not able to take him with me. What joy to have found her!”
“Kira was absolutely amazing with my dog Nova! My dog has a lot of energy and Kira was up for the challenge. She really made me feel OK leaving my fur baby. I loved that she sent me photos while I was on vacation! I know my dog was properly taken care of and loved just like at home. I highly recommend her as she is wonderful with all animals and I will definitely be using her in the future!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our Kano. It was our first time leaving him with a stranger. From our first communication, I felt a sense of calm and professionalism and she didn’t disappoint. When we dropped him off I knew he was in good hands. We received daily updates with photos. He really had a great time. She also gave us some great insight on ways to help Kano’s growth and development (boundaries). He’s a puppy and has never been around anyone except my family. I highly recommend Dalia.”
“Our pet sitter had an emergency 24hrs before our trip, leaving us in a bind. Brett’s response time was less than 8hrs. We received picture updates and Brett was extremely responsive via text. We will definitely be back!”
“We had Melanie keep our little man for the first time while we were out of town for 7 days. She sent us several pictures every day with an update on his wellbeing. The peace of mind we had while away was immeasurable and we cannot thank Melanie enough for taking wonderful care of our sweet baby! 🐾 Thank you again! 🩷🐾”
“Alex was wonderful! My cat’s stay ended up being shorter than expected, and she was super understanding and accommodating! She was very attentive and caring towards my cat and provided consistent updates every single day. I would book with her again.”
“Fantastic care for our Sherlock! Couldn’t have been any more pleased with this couple and their sweet care. Thorough, professional, thoughtful and dedicated. We’ll be contacting them again! Heartily recommend!”
“Kristi is phenomenal! She took my babies in last minute. She gave them their own huge room with a ginormous cat tree. They were extremely comfortable and had no stress whatsoever. She cared for them as I would, I have no doubt they were comfortable in their home away from home. I never worried about their food or their environment. I would most certainly recommend her and use her again a million times over. Thank you for everything Kristi!!!”
“Barbara and Keith took excellent care of our dog, Joey! They shared many sweet photos over the weekend and made sure it was a safe and comfortable space for her. Joey really enjoyed playing with Indy, and needed a nap day to recover from all of the fun when we brought her home. We would highly recommend them to anyone!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hartselle on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

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.
96% of Hartselle 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 Hartselle 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 Hartselle 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 Hartselle.
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 Hartselle 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.
