“Amy was wonderful with our two dogs! She very clearly spoiled them. I can tell by the pictures that they had a great time. Especially out in the back yard! She was also very accommodating with our schedule which was very much appreciated!”
“Amanda was an awesome dog sitter for our 8 year old Springer Spaniel, Truett! Even though he is high energy, Amanda took him on trails, walked him multiple times a day, played in the yard with him, and sent lots of cuddle pictures. Truett really enjoyed himself! We will be using Amanda again as a sitter for our boy!”
“Danielle is the absolute best, and I’ll hear nothing to the contrary. This was my first time using Rover, and the sitter I originally booked cancelled on me morning of, but Danielle accepted our last minute request on a holiday weekend. I have an old dog with arthritis and medication who can be a picky eater at times, but that was no issue for Danielle. She not only made me feel at ease with constant updates and pictures, but she exercised and socialized him, and he may like her more than me now. My only regrets with this review are that everyone else will book her now and she’ll be unavailable next time we need boarding for a weekend”
“Mr. Moose loved his stay with Jordyn! He was exhausted from all of the playing! Jordyn gave us daily updates with photos/videos and was responsive every time I reached out. She was also mindful when Moose needed his space and some rest.”
“Stephanie is (by far) our favorite sitter on Rover. She treats our little dachshund as if she is a member of the family and gives her so much love and affection. She is also fantastic to work with and we enjoy her updates. Highly, highly recommended.”
“Holly did an excellent job caring for my dog, from beginning to end! She made sure my pup was comfortable in her home and with her dog, and based on the interactions I saw in person and via video/photos, I have no doubt she treated my dog just like her own! She was super conscientious about removing toys my dog would likely chew/eat, and followed my "rules" about treats and food! It's evident she loves dogs and has experience caring for them, and that made it easy for me to leave my pup in her care!”
“The best!! Emily sent pic updates and took great care of our baby while we were gone! She was very accommodating to our last minute request, and we really appreciate it! Thanks again!!”
“Both of my dogs seem to be very happy and made themselves right at home. They loved having the backyard to roam and play, and lots of attention. They were both also on medicine and she made she made they got it and very accommodating to their every need.”
“Kendall is the best! Not only was she able to keep up with my pup, but she always reached out with updates! I was never worried about my dogs safety & I would 100% use Kendall again!”
“Deby was fabulous!! She sent me updates and pictures of my cat throughout his stay with her, and she was so kind and loving with him. I had never left him with anyone so was very nervous, and she eased my fears and was very understanding and reassuring of all his needs. I would highly recommend Deby! Next time I’m out of town Zeke is definitely going back to see her :)”
About: I’ve been around both large and small dogs my whole life. I fostered Dog’s when I live in Ohio and I had 3 acres. My sister has 5 dogs and 4 cats and a lizard. I used to take care of them all the time while she worked. I used to have a special needs dog that I took care of before cancer took him from me in 2019. I have 2 dogs right now. One was a foster fail, lol. I am a mother with another job so my schedule is all over the place, but I make it work. I can watch over night occasionally. When caring for pets in the client’s home, I will do what is needed to keep the pet safe and happy. Walks, play time, I can administer meds if needed, crate if needed, cuddles, etc. whatever you need.
“Lawden was wonderful with both of our dogs! She kept us updated with pictures, communicated well, and was flexible with our plans. We really appreciated her care and would definitely recommend her!”
“Ollie had a great time! He had other dogs to play with and a big back yard to run in. Amy sent pictures and videos of our sweet dog every day since this was our first time leaving him with anyone! He came home and immediately went to sleep- which means he played hard! Thanks Amy!”
“Angelika was such a great help while we were out of town! She was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. She made sure Jett stayed on his daily schedule and sent us pictures daily of our pup. He was a happy camper when we picked him up!”

“As a self-proclaimed helicopter dog mom, Bri was fantastic with my two girls (and their 6 bags of stuff I sent them with) for their first ever dog sitter experience. They were wagging their tails and had made themselves right at home in every picture and video I saw. Bri’s dog Bingo even got his first girlfriend: my dog Ella! After their 4 night stay, they came home exhausted and in such great spirits. I know the girls are looking forward to their next sleep over at Bri’s!”
“We received Exception service from Ray, my dog Diesel boarded for 7 days and Ray sent us pictures and videos every day of his playtime and downtime Ray's daughter and Diesel became best friends!!! when we picked our dog Diesel up Ray made sure to give us back all the items we gave him for the care of Diesel just know we will definitely be boarding Diesel with Ray and his Family again real soon.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Purdy
Angelika went above and beyond caring for our Billie! Billie has pretty severe separation anxiety, and Angelika was incredibly patient, understanding, and accommodating throughout the entire stay. She took Billie on walks every day and sent multiple photo updates, which we absolutely loved receiving and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear how much care and attention she gives to the pets she watches. Billie already misses her, and we’re so grateful for everything Angelika did. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!

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.
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.
97% of sitters in Lake Purdy 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 Lake Purdy home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Lake Purdy.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lake Purdy. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Lake Purdy 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 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.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
