“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.”

“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.”

“Was a little nervous about leaving Addie with a "new person" after 5 years with another sitter, but Stephanie was fabulous! Addie was treated like one of the family. Received photos and videos of our pooch every day while away. It was clear that Addie was having a great time and being treated with much love. Can't adequately express our appreciation!!!”

About: Experienced Pet Care for All Kinds of Animals! I’ve always loved animals, and over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to care for a wide variety. I’ve farm-sat for a property with 5 dogs, 16 horses, chickens, and a cat. I’ve also looked after homes with aquariums, koi ponds, ferrets, hedgehogs, and turtles. I even have experience working with parrots and parakeets. With over a decade of dog-sitting experience for both small and large breeds, I’m dedicated to following every pet’s unique routine—whether that means daily walks, special diets, or administering medications. Your pets will get all the outdoor time, care, and attention they need while you’re away. I have multiple references available, and I’m happy to provide them to give you peace of mind. My goal is to make sure you can enjoy your time away, knowing your pets are in good hands. I’m dedicated to providing exceptional care for your pets, offering a range of services including house sitting, drop-in visits, boarding, and dog walks. My schedule is designed to accommodate your needs. Whether you need someone to stay overnight, check in on your pets during the day, or take them for a walk, I’m here to provide loving and reliable care. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or specific requests! When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize following any specific instructions you provide to ensure your pets receive the best possible care. I will maintain their routine and comfort by adhering to their feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special care requirements. In addition to pet care, I’m happy to help with small tasks around your home, such as collecting mail, taking out the trash on designated days, and ensuring everything is in order while you’re away. My goal is to provide peace of mind, knowing that your pets are loved and your home is well cared for. For pets in my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment tailored to their needs. I ensure they have plenty of playtime, social interaction, and a cozy place to relax. Each pet is treated as part of the family, with plenty of attention and affection. If your pet is not a fan of cats or other dogs my house has the space for me to place my own pets into half the house providing everyone comfort and safety if needed.

About: I grew up with dogs and cared for my own dog for about 15 years. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty routines, and everyday care. Your pup will get plenty of attention, affection, and companionship in a calm, loving home. I’m also happy to send photo updates while you’re away. I’m home most of the day, so I can give dogs plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and walks during cooler morning and evening hours. I provide a calm, clean, and comfortable home where dogs can relax and feel safe. I follow each owner’s feeding, potty, walking, and sleeping routines carefully.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hillsboro home-away-from-home, 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 Hillsboro.

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 Hillsboro 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 , 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 .

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.
