Doggy Day Care in Hoover

“My little Golden girl loved Kelsey from the first minute they met! My Riley thinks she's a big girl now because she has so many friends at daycare. She comes home tired, but very happy. It's very comforting to know my pup is in good hands with Kelsey!!”

About: I was trained how to train dogs at an early age after our first dog was trained by our breeder. Since then I trained 2 golden retrievers and an Australian Cattle dog (red heeler). Both breeds are strong willed and have high energy. I work from home and so have a lot of freedom to break away to take care of dogs. I enjoy taking care of dogs and sharing the knowledge from my experience of training and raising dogs. I have a large beautiful fenced yard, have multiple crates for use and live within walking distance of a dog park. I have kids that will make sure your dog gets lots of love while being boarded.

“My babies came home fully intact! No parts missing lol! Jessica was a great host for my children. She sent updates throughout the day along with photographs. From the moment I dropped them off I was confident I had chosen the right person for the task. She is a pleasant human with a big heart. Yep, my babies came home just as I dropped them off, happy and all parts intact! Thank you Jessica!”

“Kendall was great with our puppy Phoebe. She answered all my questions as I was a first time Rover user. We loved receiving an update and photo while we were away. I will definitely book her again, next time we are in town.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, my mom and grandmother started the humane society in my hometown so we have always taken care of animals. I will take care of your dog like it was my own. I love all animals but especially dogs! I currently work from home so I am available to watch your dog during the day or overnight boarding. I can do drop ins or walks after 4pm. My wife is a RN so she is home 4 days a week to help watch and play with your dog also! Someone will always be available to supervise your pet and can update you with pictures through their stay! I have a fenced in yard and a dog door so they have access to come in and out as they please. I also have a big energetic German shepherd lab mix that will play with your dog all day! We have daily frisbee tosses and fetch in the backyard.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my deep understanding and love for animals. I believe that pets are not just animals but they are members of the family. Therefore, I treat them with the same care and respect as their owners would. I stay home most of the day so the pet is not left alone for any extended amount of time and if I am not home then they will be in the area I keep my dogs. Firstly, I ensure that pets have access to clean water and food at all times. Secondly, they should be given regular exercise and playtime as per their breed and age requirements. Thirdly, it is crucial to maintain good hygiene by keeping their living space clean and grooming them regularly.

“Lawden is amazing! Zeus loves her and loves going over to her house to play. It’s so reassuring to know my pup gets the same love and and affection and correction 😅 he would get at home. Lawden provides a safe and stimulating and social environment for Zeus and he loves going to see her!”

About: Hi! My whole life has resolved around dogs and I couldn’t imagine a world without them! I grew up with a daushaund, 2 labs, and a cocker spaniel so I am comfortable with all shapes and sizes of dogs. This past June, my husband surprised me with a golden retriever, Huck, and to say we are obsessed is an understatement. We don’t have any children so we will have plenty of time to devote to your pup to make sure he or she has the best day ever! My husband and I both work from home 100% of the time so we will have plenty of time to care for your pup! We are available Monday through Friday and are super flexible with the times! We have a fenced in back yard and live in a safe neighborhood with lots of walking trails around us. We have year old golden retriever who LOVES other dogs and can’t wait to meet new friends!

“Doug did a great job taking care of our dog, Paisley! We were visiting family and needed a sitter in a pinch (during a holiday weekend no less) and Doug was super quick to respond and help us out. He provided nice updates with photos, and it was clear Paisley had a great time and was well taken care of. He even took the extra effort to replace her ball when she lost it the bushes while playing outside. Would definitely use Doug again.”

“Cody was great with our dog! We received cute photo and video updates during the day, and our dog seemed happy when he came home. What more can you ask for? Thank you!”

Bernadette G.

“Java enjoyed his day with Kelly and Piper. We will definitely be back.”

Sara C.

“I was so nervous to trust someone with my new puppy. However, Kayte was so kind, understanding and patient with me. Our puppy really blossomed in her care and enjoyed spending time with her family. She was excited to go back each day and was exhausted from all the playing when she came home. Great experience!”

Michelle C.

“We really appreciate Libby watching our fur babies on short notice! They were well taken care of and loved. We will definitely be using her services again.”

Danielle S.

“I reached out to Mrs. Kim on very short notice after my dog sitter bailed on me days prior to a week long vacation I had scheduled. Mrs.Kim was very accommodating with my request. She does frequent updates and made my baby a part of her pact, and now my dog loves it there! 100% recommend Mrs. Kim and her family and will be using her again and again !”

About: I am an extremely caring and loving individual, who has owned two dogs, two cats, and dozens of other pets. Therefore I know how to accommodate whatever needs your pet might have. Having lost my oldest dog recently, being around other animals is fun and therapeutic for me as well. I am looking for work to supplement playing gigs on the weekend. Since I spend much time writing music at home, I will have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I have an easy going schedule being a teacher and musician. I have plenty of time to meet with your pet to attend to whatever needs they might have. I have plenty of space for pets to roam around my house. I also have a fenced in back yard where I like to spend time with my dog or friends dogs when the warmer weather is here.

About: Not only have I been dog sitting for the last 15 years, but I also have a lot of other experience with pet care! I have worked in a pet store as well as in veterinary offices when I used to live back in Indiana so I have learned a lot about caring for animals. I attended veterinary nursing school too before I moved, but I didn’t get to finish before moving down here and am currently looking to re start schooling here in Alabama. While I there I gained even more knowledge on animal health and care. I was the kennel manager for the shelter pets that we had at the school, where I was in charge of administering oral and IV/IM pet medication. I have experience working with elderly pets with medical issues as my own fur baby who passed in 2025 suffered from CHF and she required a lot of extra care towards the end. I love all types of animals and have experience caring for not only just dogs and cats. Over the years I have owned reptiles, turtles, and currently own 2 rabbits as well as 2 cats and 1 dog! If you book with me I will treat your pet as though they were my own so you can rest easy knowing they are loved and taken care of! I only work part time, so I have a very flexible schedule. I will have plenty of time to spend time with your pet! I am not typically away from home for very long, so I will be able to regularly come to check on your pet. I have a large fenced in yard and a dog door that my two dogs go in and out of freely. I will walk or run with your dog daily. There is usually always someone in my house at home at all times, who all love to interact with dogs. I have one other dogs. She is typically nice with other dogs but can be very skittish, so they would need to be introduced prior to being watched. The safety and comfort of all of the dogs including my own are my priority, so it needs to be a good fit. My dog does love to play a lot so they usually enjoy having another furry friend to play with. My 2 cats and 2 rabbits also live in the home, but the layout of the house allows them to stay in the upstairs portion of the house and it is blocked off to allow them to be separated. They all get along, but I feel more comfortable to allow them to have their own spaces.

About: I know how stressful it can be to choose someone to care for your pets, and I’ve totally been there. I have two small dogs myself, and I hate leaving them behind. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ve cared for animals my whole life, from cats, and dogs, to even an abandoned deer for two days. I’d love to be your best friend’s new best friend! Currently, I’m a stay at home dog mom. I take my boys to the Red Mountain or Vestavia Hills Dog Park almost everyday, and they couldn’t be happier! Whether your pet stays with me or I come to you, they’ll be cared for just like my own. In my home, they’ll enjoy our fully fenced, backyard, walks, playtime, and plenty of snuggles. In your home, I’ll stick to their routine so they feel happy, safe, and loved

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for several years, including my own puppy, Sunny, and dogs belonging to family and friends. I’m very comfortable with daily routines like feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and basic puppy care. I live in a calm, family-oriented home with a fenced yard, and I only take one dog at a time to make sure each pet gets my full attention. Because I have a young child in the home, safety and supervision are always my top priorities. I’m patient, attentive, and communicative, and I make sure pet parents feel comfortable and informed while they’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and aim to provide a stress-free, loving environment. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work during the day, but I’m available mornings, evenings, and overnight for care, with plenty of time for walks, play, feeding, and potty breaks. I’m available throughout the week, with flexible scheduling, and I communicate clearly to make sure timing works well for everyone. I provide a calm, safe, and supervised home environment with a fenced yard for outdoor time. I only host one dog at a time so each pet gets my full attention. I have a young child and my own small puppy, so I prioritize gentle interactions, structure, and safety at all times. I follow routines closely and keep pet parents updated.

“Chyra was responsive, reliable and kind. She has a genuine love for animals and my dog had a good time with her.”

About: Me and my husband have been around dogs our whole life. Our family always considered our dogs part of the family. My first job was walking my neighbors dogs at 11 years old. I also used rover when me and my husband had to work 8-9 hr days at the same time. I know what it’s like to have to trust someone to care for your dog the way you would. I will always treat your dog the way would I treat my own. I started doing Rover so that families have a safe place to leave their dog while they go away on vacation or just for the day and know for a fact they don’t have to worry. I always send lots of videos and pictures and you will get updates the entire day everyday. You can also request a picture or update if you’re missing your pup. Thats something I always wanted when I used Rover for my dog. My dog is spoiled with lots of toys and cuddles, so your dog will also have lots of cuddles and toys. Ive always watched my neighbors dogs when they would go away for the week and have had lots of experience with all kinds of dogs! I am able to give dogs medication such as pills if needed. I have had 3 different dogs in my childhood and adult life and have been through taking care of them through all stages of their life. I’m currently home full time so I will be home all day with your dog. My dogs schedule is eating around 8-9 then again at 4:30-5:30. I walk my dog 6 times a day to go to the bathroom. I have a special water bowl that holds 2 gallons of water that lets the dog have as much water as they need. I make sure to engage my dog and any dogs I watch by doing some training exercises or playing with them. Me and my dog Ollie would love for your dog to join us in this routine! I always make sure to have a clean environment so the dogs can’t get into anything that would be harmful to them. They will get at least 4 walks a day and one trip to the fenced in dog park behind my complex if weather permits.
