Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Madison
This was only my second time using Rover and it was another great experience. I am extremely protective of my Isley so I don't trust to leave him with just anyone. I was referred to the Ks by a friend who has been boarding their furbaby with them for several years. When I experienced a sudden death in my family, I knew I'd be pulled in a million directions for several days so I didn't want my furbaby to be bored, lonely or lack attention. The Ks were able to accommodate my last-minute boarding request and also extended his stay an additional day when asked. I usually board him at his vet's office but I wanted him to spend more time around other dogs and to get as much activity as possible...and that's exactly what he got! During his week-long stay, I received pics of my Isley and his new furbuddies. It was very comforting to know my baby was well taken care of during such a devastating time for my family and I. I'll definitely be sending my Isley back for boarding or doggie daycare whenever I return to the Huntsville area.
Brett is amazing and my pup really seemed very comfortable staying at his home. Very warm, friendly, and flexible. It took longer to pick her up because I was traveling from out of state and Brett was completely understanding. Would definitely book with him again. Highly recommend because of good communication and positive vibes ✨️
Highly recommend Autumn and Paul! They have taken care of our pups a couple times now and have done an exceptional job. Our pups were well loved, given great care and attention and were so happy when we picked them up. So glad we have found this sweet family to care for our dogs when we are away.
Diane took Fantastic care of Winston for a week. It was so very nice to go on vacation and not worry about him. She genuinely cares and enjoys dogs, was super easy to work with, has a great yard, sent us pictures and updates. Winston was very well cared for and had a good time with her and Jackie. Thank you so very much Diane!!!!
Eden was wonderful with Scout. She took wonderful care of her and gave her lots of attention. She sent us pictures of Scout and a video as well as giving an update. She is knowledgeable about dogs and loves them very much. So thankful to have found her to watch Scout. She was very professional and focused on pleasing us as the client.
This was Jack’s first time staying with Elizabeth, and it couldn’t have gone better! He had a fantastic time playing with Murphy and came home happy and tired. Elizabeth sent photos and quick updates throughout his stay, which made us feel completely at ease. Jack even came home with a new favorite toy! We’re so grateful to have found Elizabeth and will definitely be booking with her again.
Had a seamless experience with Olivia! She paid attention to our rescue pup’s needs, such as avoiding encounters with other dogs due to his trauma, and provided us with updates throughout his stay. Definitely using her services again next time we need the help!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Madison on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 305 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Madison. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Madison sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Madison landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Madison 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 Madison.
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.
You and your Madison 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.
