“James & Emily were great with our Honey Jo! They sent us pictures, had great communication, and walked Honey during her stay with them. We were traveling by plane so our trip timing was up in the air, but James & Emily were flexible with our drop off & pick up times. Would love to use them again!”
“Kelsey and her family provided safe and loving home for my two cats during my travel. She sent frequent updates with pictures. Her kids are wonderful with animals. One of the pictures shows Kelsey's little daughter gently petting and kissing my cat. It is so beautiful that I'm going to frame it.”
“Our boys became an extension to Sean and Dianna from the start. They loved playing in the pool and making new friends so much that I don’t think they missed us at all! And I wouldn’t want it any other way!!! We were provided updates of their happenings throughout the day by pictures, videos, and messages. It was so comforting to have absolute peace of mind that my pups were happy. I will 100% be booking with them again.”
“Juyne sent updates throughout the day with messages and pictures of my Lexi. I am new to the area and she was my first experience with letting anyone keep her. Juyne assured me I was comfortable leaving Lexi in her hands. I will definitely use her again.”

“Annie was amazing! My baby stayed with her while I was away for a work conference and Annie did a great job at keeping me updated and even sending me photos while I was away. Mowgli took to her very well and was comfortable immediately upon our arrival. If you didn’t know any better, you would have thought he was at home. My pup is very energetic and Annie made sure he got plenty of outside time and walks. She’s the best!”
“My Piper had a great time with Diane and her fur babies. She has an overall very pet-friendly house/backyard/neighborhood. She treated my fur baby just like her own, and we’ll definitely come back to her in the future.”

About: With extensive hands-on experience in pet care, I’ve worked in animal shelters, administering medication, sanitizing kennels, and caring for dogs from puppies to elderly pets. Additionally, during my time in law enforcement, I trained police K9s, gaining in-depth knowledge of canine behavior and training techniques. My diverse background has equipped me with the skills, patience, and compassion to provide exceptional care for dogs of all needs and personalities. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule, as I am available full-time, including weekends. I’m dedicated to providing reliable and consistent care, ensuring your pet gets the attention they deserve whenever you need it. When pets stay with me, they’ll enjoy a safe, loving environment. I have a fenced-in yard for plenty of playtime and exercise. I provide individualized care, including administering medication or sticking to specific routines. If requested, I can also give baths to keep your pet feeling fresh. Rest assured, I’ll give your pet the attention, affection, and comfort they need while you’re away.
“My dog had a blast with Kristy. If you want your dog to be tired out, she is the one to book. Very flexible and communicative. She sent many pictures of my dog while I was away. Will definitely book her again!”
“Jamie provided excellent care for our black lab, Zora. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay. At the last minute we took Zora to the vet and found she had an ear infection and Jamie agreed to still keep Zora for the week and administer her ear drops. Jamie made me feel very comfortable leaving my baby girl and I would recommend her to anyone wanting to make sure their fur baby is well taken care of. I will use her again.”
“My two dogs were well taken care of. I have one dog who is epileptic and she was able to admitted his pills twice a day. I worry often about my dogs when they are in boarding but after seeing all the other reviews and dropping the dogs off and seeing how the weekend would be, I was able to relax and enjoy my trip. Will be using her again next time I need boarding.”
“Amber stepped in on an emergency basis. The reviews posted by others are very accurate! I handed off our pup and prayed all reviews were correct and flew back to the hospital. We received numerous pics and emails. It was very apparent our pup was happy and safe!! Thank you Amber!!!!”
“Keith was AMAZING!! He communicated quickly and sent lots of photos during our pups stay. I could tell they were having a great time and were loved the entire they were there!! He even washed their belonging and gave them baths! Definitely will use again for our next boarding!”
About: Hi there! I’m August! I’m a stay-at-home mom to my sweet 3 month old, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive care for your pets. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I recently lost my beloved dog, so while my heart is healing, I’d love the opportunity to spend time caring for other dogs and cats. I currently have two cats of my own and have experience caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply having a calm companion around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets and those with special needs, including administering medications and following detailed care instructions. I understand that every pet is unique, and I’m committed to providing the same level of care and attention I’d want for my own animals. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I promise to care for your pets as if they were my own. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and plenty of communication so you can have peace of mind while you’re apart. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! ❤️🐶🐱 As a SAHM, I have a flexible, home-centered schedule that allows me to integrate pet care seamlessly into my day. I enjoy having pets as part of my routine and making sure they get steady attention, comfort, and care throughout the day. I provide care either in my home or my client’s home, depending on the service. In either setting, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. This includes feeding, fresh water, litter box or potty care, playtime, and attention based on each pet’s personality.
“Very good experience! Kim was very informative and kept Oscar engaged. She gave him plenty of love, care, and exercise throughout his stay with her. She gave me lots of photos and videos to keep me updated. 10/10 would recommend!”

James & Emily were great with our Honey Jo! They sent us pictures, had great communication, and walked Honey during her stay with them. We were traveling by plane so our trip timing was up in the air, but James & Emily were flexible with our drop off & pick up times. Would love to use them again!
I felt so relieved to find sweet Jessica and Jeffery. They cared for my baby like she was there own and she had a blast with their puppy Joey!! I felt so much better on my vacation knowing my baby was with people who cared so much for her. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone!
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.

There are 298 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Madison. About 96% of Madison 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.
