“Amazing! The dogs loved being with Laderius and his family. I hesitated because they are on the opposite end of town from me (North Birmingham) but ultimately went with Laderius and I’m so glad I did! They are worth it! Great communication, BIG LOVE for our pets, and making sure they enjoyed their “vacation.” Just overall good people. We will be back.”

While with your dog they will get 100% of my attention because the safety of your dog is my #1 priority. I am very careful with special needs dogs and always keep in mind their specific needs.

About: I love animals and I am looking forward to meeting lots of new animal friends this year. I’ve had a dog most of my life. I currently have a calm senior chihuahua. My heart is with senior dogs, but I love all types of dogs and to play with them. I watch my uncle’s dog ,a young poodle, often when he’s out of town and host numerous friends pups when they’re on short vacations or stop in to feed and check up on them. I love running and being outdoors and spend a good amount of my day being active outside. I’m looking forward to learning to care for different types of pets. I have my own chihuahua so I care for her every day. She’s also a senior dog with medication now so I’m really having to be intentional with her schedule. My dog is pretty free range. I let her out in the yard and walk her with a leash if we leave home. I can pretty much adjust with any things needed for your dog.

“I travel a good bit for work and fun. So naturally I want to ensure that my little buddy Duke is well taken care of in my absence. We have enjoyed some really great sitters in the several years that we’ve been a part of the Rover community. But hands down Kayla B. was by far THEE best sitter we have ever experienced in 12 years of being a dog mom. Her genuine care, love, and concern for animals is exceptional. Her communication was wonderful and quick. Thanks to Kayla, I even have a picture collage of Duke for keepsake. She went above and beyond to check his tongue when I thought I saw a rash in a picture. This was the first time my dog was torn when it was time to come home. I could tell he missed Kayla and her family instantly. She is our forever sitter as long as she’s doing this.”

About: About Me 🐾 Hi! My name is Brianna, and I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember. I’ve had dogs throughout my entire life, so caring for dogs has always been something that comes naturally to me. I currently have a small dog named Marshall, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, who is a very important part of our family. Having Marshall has given me even more experience with the love, patience, attention, and consistency that dogs need to feel comfortable and happy. I know that leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, which is why I treat every dog in my care like they are part of my own family. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, loving environment where your dog can relax and enjoy their stay. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I also understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I’ll take the time to get to know what makes your pup comfortable. Whether your dog loves to play, enjoys cuddling on the couch, or prefers a little quiet time, I’m happy to meet them where they are. 🐶❤️ I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your pup and become someone you can feel comfortable trusting with their care! I work during the day, but I’m available for boarding and can provide plenty of attention before and after work. I’m available most weekends and will make sure your pup gets plenty of playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, and care throughout their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a safe, welcoming home and a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time. I have a friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Marshall who enjoys having other dogs around. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, crate time, and any special instructions.

About: I’ve always been the friend people call when they need someone to care for their pets! I’ve raised a dog from puppyhood and adopted and cared for a senior dog, so I’m comfortable with every stage of life. Over the years, I’ve been a repeat dog and cat sitter and walker for countless friends and family—including house sitting for over a month. I am also a Doctor (resident physician) at Baptist Health, so responsibility, attention to detail, and caring for others are a big part of my everyday life. I specifically offer Rover during lighter months when I’m home most of the day; when I do go into work, I’m typically only away for 2–3 hours at a time. I’m comfortable with medications and detailed care instructions, attentive to when something seems off, and calm in unexpected situations. One of my closest friends is also a veterinarian, giving me a trusted resource when needed. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and treat other people’s pets the way I’d want someone to treat my own. If you furry friend stays with me, they will also meet Zeus, my 10-year-old neutered pug and professional co-pet-sitter. He’s incredibly laid-back, patient, and unfazed by just about everything—I have never even heard him bark! He loves dogs and cats, has helped me host many pets over the years, and mostly just does his own thing while providing some quiet companionship. Whether you have an energetic puppy, a laid-back dog, or a cat who runs the household, I’m at your bark and call! 🐾 As I mentioned, I’m a doctor at Baptist Health. I specifically offer Rover during lighter months when I am at home most of the day. When I do go into work during these months, I’m typically only away for 2–3 hours at a time. I want your pet to feel as comfortable and secure as possible, so I’m happy to follow whatever routine they’re used to—feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate time, sleeping habits, and all their little quirks! I’m attentive and responsible, and I never take the trust of caring for someone’s pet or home lightly. If you’re hiring me to host your doggo, I live in a condo right by Railroad Park and just a block from Rotary Trail, so there are plenty of opportunities for walks and outdoor time throughout the day. My mom also lives only five minutes away and has a large, beautiful fenced-in yard that we can visit for some extra space to play and explore. At home, my calm senior pug Zeus is around for company but is very content to do his own thing. When caring for pets in their own home, I’m respectful of their space and prioritize keeping their normal routine. I will also send plenty of photos and updates so you always know how they’re doing!

About: My experience with dogs goes back as far as I can remember. Dogs have always been a part of my life, and they always will be! I have been paid to train dogs on occasion, and I have also grown up with many dogs of all sizes. I’ve had numerous German Shepherds, pitbull, labs, shih tzu, you name it. I currently have a female German Shepherd who is 4 years old and a female German Shepherd/Belgian Malinois mix who is 2 years old. Both dogs are spayed and trained. My German Shepherd likes to bark at people initially, but has never bitten a person or a dog, and always has a blast with them after sniffing them out for about 5-10 minutes. My German Shepherd can be separated from your pup if you feel more comfortable that way. My younger pup absolutely loves any and everyone new dog or human! I have a small fenced in back yard and porch and live on a road that isn’t busy so there is little worry of traffic. I absolutely love dogs of all breeds and sizes and look forward to meeting and having a blast with yours! I currently work part time remote so I’m home all of the time and available to tend to your dog’s needs any time of the day. I have a fenced yard along with 2 fun dogs of my own to keep your pup company at all times! I will be sure to keep your dog safe as if he/she is my own and they will get as much play time as you would like them to have!

About: I have grown up with animals of all kinds! When I was born I had two dogs and a cat! I have taken care of pretty much all types of breeds! I love animals so much that I almost became a vet! I currently work a full time job Monday-Friday, but if local I can come let dogs out during my lunch break! I also have a 2 year old German shorthair pointer who loves to meet new friends I currently have a fenced in yard but that doesn’t stop my dog and I. She has been trained on e-collar and recall, but we also are good with leashes! I can also take dogs anywhere with my safety backseat canopy for dogs!

About: Growing up on a farm surrounded by dogs and various animals, I developed a deep love for pet care. Now, with three beloved cats of my own, I bring years of hands-on experience and genuine passion to every pet I care for. Your pet will be treated like family! I work until 4pm Monday through Friday. I can be available any time after that during the week, and am available any time on the weekends. In both my home and clients' homes, I prioritize safety and comfort. I maintain a pet-friendly, clean environment, always following any specific care instructions to ensure your pet's routine is uninterrupted. Building trust through clear communication and attentive care is my top priority, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving, capable hands.

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! 💕

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Hoover

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Hoover is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $64 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 330 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Hoover. About 92% 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.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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.
