“Kimberley and her family were wonderful hosts for Bailey!!!! We had a meet and greet first, and she was very gentle with Bailey with the introduction of her other two cute pups! I really appreciated that! With the stay, she sent pictures and updated me! I really enjoyed meeting her and her family and loved that she took great care of him! She has become definitely my number 1 rover sitter!”
“Barrie was amazing!! She loved our dog like her own and he had the best time! My husband said he didn’t want to leave when he picked him up. She sent us pictures, videos, and updates everyday. We were at ease on our trip leaving him in such great hands. So thankful we found Barrie. We will definitely be back!”
“If I could leave 10 out of 5 stars I would! Amanda was wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. Besides being kind, gentle, and thoughtful, she was very caring and gave our dog lots of attention. We had multiple pictures and videos, which were so nice. She took Oliver on walks every day, not down the street, but to a park every day. She also fed him home cooked chicken (with my approval) to try to get him to eat (picky eater!). I know Oliver had a great time and it was so nice not worrying about our little boy! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Amanda!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I have trained two puppies. My boyfriend has a chameleon so I am good with all types of animals. I work in healthcare so I am free 4 days out of the week. I have lots of time on my off days to pick up side work and would love your fur baby to be a part of it! I currently live in an apartment, but I would love to take your dog out to the park. I go on regular hikes so they can come with me!
“Kristen kept our dogs for 2 days and took great care of them! She was very kind, a great communicator and is definitely a dog lover! I will definitely be using her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years and truly love spending time with animals. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, as well as cats and other household pets. Friends, family, neighbors, and clients have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, administer basic care, and provide companionship for their pets while they’re away. I also have extensive house-sitting experience and have stayed in clients’ homes for extended periods, including several months at a time, ensuring their pets stayed comfortable in their normal routine. I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to provide dependable, attentive, and compassionate care. I am currently working part time as a prn phlebotomist so my hours are very flexible. I am available almost any day (or night) of the week ! I have a big yard for lots of room to run and play. I have a car for any transportation needs as well. I have a large area inside the house to set up pet food, crates, and bedding.
“Chyna was absolutely amazing with our babies, Hampton and Willow! She cared for them overnight and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. She was attentive, loving, and made sure both dogs were comfortable and well cared for. It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. Hampton and Willow were happy and relaxed when we returned, which says everything. We are so grateful for Chyna and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter!”
“Our pup had the best time staying with Kelsy. He had so much fun playing, it was like he was on vacation too. He actually seemed a little bummed that he's not with his buddies. Would highly recommend!”
“Shelby is awesome. She took great care of our baby and even let us extend our booking another day when we found out our hotel check out wasnt until the following day. She sent us many updates, and even took Riley on play dates with other doggos. I would definitely reccomend Shelby to anyone that needs a pet sitter! We hope she will be able to baby sit Riley again in June. ? Thanks so much Shelby!”
“Sara and her family were very nice and do indeed have a nice home. They were obviously dog lovers and gave Chelsea excellent care. Our communication with them was excellent and we felt very comfortable leaving Chelsea with them while we were out of the country. ”
“I have never left Nina with anyone but Kelly made me feel so good about her being away. She sent pictures daily and I could tell my girl was having an amazing time 10/10 highly recommend.”
“Ashley was awesome with our two Boxer girls! Mags and Su had a blast playing in the big fenced back yard & with her pup and senior Boxer. I honestly think Su is going to have separation anxiety from Freya, she loved playing with her so much!! Ashley sent daily updates with photos/videos. We would highly recommend, especially if you have a Boxer, trusting Ashley with your fur babes!”
“Westyn was great! He kept me informed on my pups experience was I was away. Pictures tell a thousand words and I could tell she had a great time and felt right at home. I will definitely rebook again!”
“I had to take a last minute trip out of state and used Rover for the first time. I chose Libby and she was absolutely wonderful. She was easy to book last minute and she took good care of my fur babies. I have a 9 year old Samoyed/Husky mix and a 6 month old Samoyed. She was very responsive and sent the best pictures and videos of my babies. I highly recommend her and I will definitely book with Libby again in the future.”
“I gave a 5 star review, solely, based on how our baby hollered with his mouth wide open when it was time to go. We have never heard him wail like this ever before. He truly enjoyed himself. Thank you for taking such good care of our baby. He is still catching up on rest the following day. He was worn slap out! ❤️✅🎉”

Highly recommend Brittney for boarding. She has the ideal set up for boarding dogs with fenced in areas and a large living area for dogs in her home. She sent us pictures of our dog enjoying the other dogs while we were gone and it made us feel good knowing she was having a good time.
Kristen was an absolute joy to work with and Lulu seems to have had a ball. Communication was quick, easy and always to the point. Pictures were sent showing a very, very happy dog and so I am a very, very happy mama. I will definitely be calling on her again and am pleased to recommend her.
Jonathan was fantastic! He accepted my booking request on short notice, which was a huge help. He kept me updated throughout my dog’s stay with pictures, giving me peace of mind while I was away. He was also very flexible with both drop-off and pick-up times, making everything easy and stress-free. Jonathan and his family were kind and welcoming, and it was clear my dog was well cared for and loved!
Madelynn was so great! I ended up needing a pet sitter very last minute and she not only replied to my initial message immediately, but she agreed to let me drop my fur baby off within about an hour! Not only was she super accommodating with such a last minute situation but she was just so nice and sweet. She sent me pics and updates and my dog just loved her. I could just tell from the little videos of they snuggling and playing :) She was just so great and I’m so glad we found her through Rover. Thank you Madelynn! 💕
Kendall was so attentive to Rosie! Rosie is a rescue who is afraid of the world around her, but Kendall took great care of her and never gave up when Rosie was unsure of her new surroundings, making her as comfortable as possible. I’m so appreciative of how sweet she was with Rosie and how she navigated her challenges, including trying to make sure our non-food-motivated dog ate regularly while we were gone. I would definitely book with Kendall again!
Abigail is amazing! She took such great care of my dog and treated him as if he were her pet. She was very responsive and communicative, sharing photos and updates while I was away. She is so kind, and it’s no wonder my dog was sad to leave when I picked him up! I can’t say enough good things about Abigail, and how comfortable I felt knowing my pet was in great hands.
I am very happy that I chose Noelle to take care of my boy Jared. Very nice and friendly person. I am sure Jared felt at home and at ease in their house. Clean environment and safe and quite neighborhood. Will definitely ise Noelle’s service the next time we need it. Highly recommended.

There are 375 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Hoover. About 93% of Hoover 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.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
