“Sofia was an absolute godsend. She's incredibly dependable, professional and kind. And it's a bonus that she's a vet tech. I had never left my dog with a stranger before, so I was nervous about leaving her for a weekend. But Sofia was so communicative and responsive that my anxiety quickly vanished. I will 100% user her again.”
“Lauryn is an amazing host. She is caring and will send you lots of pictures when your dog boards with her. She is also very patient and prioritizes our dog's health. We have had to cancel several bookings with her due to unforeseen circumstances, but she is always kind and willing to work with us. I am going to make another booking after leaving this review.”
“We have used Corey for close to a year and he is phenomenal! Corey is always so flexible on last minute trips. We always feel our fur babies are in good hands with him and receive pictures while we are away. I would definitely recommend Corey to anyone!”
“Jennifer is the BEST!! She loved our pup like her own for a long 9 day stay! We got updates multiple times a day and I think Harper was sad to leave her! We won’t be sending her to anyone else!”
“Callie was absolutely amazing and kept me updated plenty of times throughout Randvi’s short stay. She sent me a lot of amazing pictures of my girl and was extremely flexible. I can’t recommend Callie enough.”
“Penny spent a week with Lindsey and her pack and she seemed to be very happy and content with her stay. Lindsey provided updates every morning and evening, letting me know that Penny had eaten her food and what she had done for the day. She also included pictures in which I could tell Penny was having fun. During her visit it was July 4 and Penny is extremely scared of fireworks. Lindsey made a safe space for Penny and checked on her consistently. I feel that Penny was in good hands with Lindsey and her family. I would not hesitate to leave Penny with Lindsay again!”
About: I watched my friends and families pet whenever they go out of town ever since I was 22, I love being around animals in general. Mostly available in the evenings 3pm until 11pm any day of the week. Sunday through Saturday you can count on me. Glad to help 😊 I have a tea cup Yorkie named Teddy they will keep your pets company and we live in a peaceful apartment where your pet can run and play around and be safe.
“Diesel absolutely enjoyed himself with Ruben! Ruben communicated extremely well and was very flexible with accommodations for Diesel. His experience and history made me feel very comfortable with Diesel in his care!”
“Morgan helped us out on short notice with the care of our golden retriever. Drop off and pick up was truly a pleasure, Morgan has a wonderful personality! We look forward to booking her again.”
About: We’re a working couple with no children and one dog of our own, living in a home with a secure fenced-in yard. We love dogs and want to provide a safe, comfortable home environment for one guest dog at a time, so your pup gets plenty of individual attention. Because we work during the day, dogs will be crated while we’re working, but we make sure they get regular potty and play breaks every 2–4 hours. Once the workday is over, they’re out with us for the evening and get plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. We have experience caring for senior dogs, large breeds, and dogs with medical needs, and we’re comfortable following specific routines, medications, feeding schedules, and care instructions. Our goal is to make your dog feel safe and at home while you’re away. We keep our guest list intentionally small because we believe quality attention is more important than taking multiple dogs at once. If your dog enjoys a quiet home, a fenced yard, regular breaks, and lots of love, we’d be happy to welcome them! 🐶❤️ We work full time but are available to come home for potty breaks and play time during the day. In the evenings and on weekends your dog will be free to play and run during the day I have a fenced in yard as well as a large outdoor kennel if needed. Dogs will be crated while we are away and free while we are at home.
“Tim is a great petsitter and my dog love him . He always sent me pictures and answers my questions about my dog . And the most import thing was my dog had a good time with him .”
About: I’ve wanted to be a Veterinarian ever since I was little. I’m very gentle and understanding with each pets needs. I provide love in the care I give!! I also work at Camp Bow Wow and have a lot of experience with animals. I am on South Alabama’s campus with classes every morning but on the days I don’t have work I’m free to help you along with open weekends! I also live 20 minutes away from home so I’m not far. And I am always willing to negotiate! I help with the need of potty breaks and food and water for the benefit of each pet. I am always paying attention to the actions and behaviors!!
“Boarding our 7 month old springer spaniel with Kimberly provided such a peace of mind! She was very responsive and easy to work with from the start. She sent regular updates while we were traveling, which we greatly appreciated, too! Georgie seemed to be quite at home and loved having two friends to play with. At the end of our trip we picked up a happy and tired boy from a fun-filled 6 days. Would absolutely recommend and book with Kimberly again!”
About: I have a fully-fenced half acre and turn out dogs accordingly. Playing fetch, frisbee or dog pool when the weather is right. I am home through-out the day and night. My dog guests play in the back yard as I supervise, have access to the couch and bed or can be crated. Experienced in dog sporting events, medications and separation anxiety. Owners provide their own food. Crates available if needed. My life is centered around my dogs and I work from home. I have extra crates available if needed or your fur baby can supervise me as I work. Dogs are never left outside unattended. Dogs are let out either separately or with another depending on temperament. Dogs are all fed separately to avoid any conflicts. The splash pad is available every time they go outside if they choose to play with it along with oodles of toys. Dog poo removed immediately to ensure a safer yard environment.
“Ellie really enjoyed staying with Ivania and her dog, Lex. She went the extra mile to make sure Ellie was well taken care of and was very accommodating during the booking process. If you're looking for a great dog sitter, look no further!”
“Olivia was incredibly accommodating. I reached out and booked at the last minute to help a fellow grandmother with boarding her two fur babies, and she made the entire process easy and stress-free. Because I was rushing and didn’t know much about the pups, I didn’t realize (or think to ask) that one of them might be in heat. Olivia typically doesn’t accept pups in heat, but given the emergency situation, she graciously worked with us anyway. She even provided pick-up and drop-off, which was a huge help. When she brought them back, it was clear the pups really liked her, and that told me everything. They were well cared for and comfortable with her. I absolutely recommend Olivia for your fur baby boarding needs!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs and I also have my own dog, Bonnie, who is a beloved part of my family. Caring for Bonnie has taught me how important it is to provide pets with patience, love, attention, and a consistent routine. I am comfortable with feeding, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, keeping pets company, and making sure they are safe and comfortable. I understand that every pet has a different personality and needs, so I always take the time to learn their routine and make them feel at home. I am a responsible, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and give them plenty of love and attention while their family is away. I will also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I am home full-time and have a very flexible schedule, making my home a comfortable and welcoming place for your pet to stay. I am available for boarding and can provide your pet with plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and care throughout the day. Your pet will also have the company of my sweet dog, Bonnie, who is a friendly and beloved part of our family. I will make sure every pet feels comfortable and safe around her and receives plenty of individual attention as well. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where pets can relax and feel like part of the family. I have my own dog, Bonnie, and I am very attentive to her safety and well-being. My yard is not fenced, so I never allow Bonnie to go outside without being on a leash. I would follow the same routine with your pet and always take them outside on a leash to make sure they are safe and secure. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I will closely supervise your pet, follow your instructions and routines, and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care throughout their stay. My goal is for you to feel confident and comfortable knowing your pet is safe and well cared for in my home.
“Tierney did a fantastic job keeping my dogs for a week while we were out of town getting married. My dogs loved her dogs and they all played so hard together. She kept on communication with me and even sent me pictures and videos while we were away. I will hire her again for all my boarding needs.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Jessica couldn’t be happier with the care our poodles received during their stay. From the very beginning, she was incredibly attentive, communicative, and clearly passionate about taking care of dogs. Throughout the entire stay, she kept us updated frequently, sending us multiple updates and photos every hour. As pet parents, that level of communication gave us so much peace of mind. It was so comforting to see our poodles relaxed, playing, and enjoying their time while we were away. She also made sure they got plenty of activity by taking them on daily walks, which we really appreciated. From the pictures and updates she shared, we could genuinely tell that our poodles were happy, comfortable, and being treated with lots of care and affection. It’s always a little nerve-wracking leaving your dogs with someone new, but she completely exceeded our expectations. She treated our poodles as if they were her own, and that meant a lot to us. We’re so grateful for the love and attention she gave them. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive sitter. Thank you again for taking such great care of our poodles!”

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.
98% of sitters in Mauvilla 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 Mauvilla 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 Mauvilla.
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 Mauvilla. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 Mauvilla 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.
