About: I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos, giving you peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. I work full-time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my pet care commitments carefully. I have three days off each week, and I can often arrange extended time off for bookings that require extra attention. On workdays, I make sure pets receive the care, exercise, and companionship they need before and after my shifts, and I only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to. My goal is to provide reliable, consistent care while keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and preferences so they receive individualized care. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have had dogs my whole life ☺️ I have cared for my own as well as others for years. At my home safety is top priority. My baby recently passed. Rhett was my world for 15 years and my home just isn’t the same without him. I would love to watch your fur baby🙂 and give them love and affection in your absence. I work from home and can give your baby 100% attention. We go on many potty breaks and times to snoop in the yard. I would love to host your fur baby. I have a large fenced in yard. My 6 pound baby loved running and playing in the yard. No way to escape. Plenty of squirrels to run after!

About: As a dedicated pet sitter with 7+ years of experience, I go beyond basic care to provide pets with love, attention, and an stress-free environment while their owners are away. I have experience with a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, small pets, and even exotic or farm animals. Whether it’s administering medication, handling special dietary needs, or providing structured exercise and enrichment, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I specialize in working with shy, anxious, reactive, or senior pets, using patience and positive reinforcement to help them feel comfortable and secure. With an extensive background in the Veterinary field, I ensure pets stay safe and happy under my care. My goal is to not only meet but exceed your expectations—providing updates, photos, and peace of mind while you’re away. Let me treat your pet like family! With an open and flexible schedule, I can provide pet care that fits seamlessly into your routine. Since I am not currently employed elsewhere, I am available for last-minute bookings, extended stays, and midday visits—ensuring your pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Whether it’s an early morning walk, a late-night check-in, or specialized care throughout the day, I can accommodate your pet’s specific schedule without restrictions. My priority is making sure your pet stays happy, comfortable, and well-cared for while giving you peace of mind. I am currently enrolled in school to continue pursuing my Doctorate in Psychology. I understand that a pet’s home is their safe space, and I take great care in ensuring they feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away. In your home, I maintain your pet’s routine as closely as possible—whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or cuddle sessions—so they experience minimal disruption. I treat every home with the utmost respect, keeping it clean, tidy, and just as you left it. My goal is to provide not just pet care, but complete peace of mind, knowing that your furry family member is happy and well-cared for in the comfort of their own home.

About: I grew up in a vet clinic having a father as a Veterinarian calling it my home away from home. I chose to stay in the animal field with the passion I have for animals and be that person that owners can trust when they leave their animals and have a peace of mind.I have tons of vet tech experience. I am currently a stay at home mom with my 2 sons,Beckett and Brooks,4 cats, and a dog.We are all enjoying summer at the house with tons of free time , so watching after animals will fit into my schedule perfectly. I have a fenced in back yard and let them out very frequently, several times during the day and of course first thing in the morning and right before bedtime.My house is very clean and there’s plenty of space for your pet.I will follow any instructions you leave me whether it’s feeding or medication.When they are at my home they are considered family.They can free roam, sleep in the bed with me, get on the couch, the whole point is I want them to feel comfortable and have fun!!

About: As a dog mom myself I know it’s nerve wracking having to leave your fur baby in someone else’s care.. That’s why I make it priority to give every pet parent the same peace of mind I’d want for my own dogs. When your fur-baby is with me, they’re treated like one of my own. I know no two pets are alike, so I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences. So whether they love to play, need extra enrichment, enjoy quiet companionship, or do better with structure, I’ll make sure they receive the individualized care they’re used to at home so they feel comfortable! I also love keeping pet parents involved, so you can expect lots of photos, videos, and updates throughout their stay or visit! Pet care is already a part of my everyday life. Outside of caring for client pets, you’ll usually find me spending time with my own dogs, going on walks and hikes, working on training, and socializing. Caring for animals isn’t just my job, it’s something I genuinely enjoy every single day. All pup’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. My home is fully fenced for safe outdoor play, and dogs enjoy plenty of supervised playtime, enrichment activities, toys, and opportunities to relax throughout the day. Every dog is different, so I do my best to match their energy level and personality, whether they love to play with friends or prefer a little 1-on-1 attention. To keep everyone safe and comfortable, meals and treats are enjoyed separately, followed by a quiet rest break in their own cozy crate. I use crates as a positive, comfortable space to relax after meals as downtime which helps support healthy digestion before everyone is back to playing and exploring together.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Irvington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Irvington is $41 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $50 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.

As of October 2026, there are 281 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Irvington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

95% of sitters in Irvington can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Irvington 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 Irvington.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Irvington 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.
