“Natalie took awesome care of our golden retriever! Her dog and our dog got along great. Overall A plus experience. Would recommend Natalie for any dog sitting situation.”
“The best dog care you could ever have. Very friendly, right on time. Everything is comfortable, the service, you can trust her with your dog, worries free. She really makes time to play with your dog and give so much care. She deserve more than the pay she ask for, you will never regret boarding the dog to her, they got back yard and your dog will have so much fun.”
“Lauri kept our senior dog for a weekend and I had no doubts leaving him in her care! Our dog has only stayed with family members and this was his first time staying with someone else and he had a blast!! We can’t thank her enough for taking such good care of our old man!!”
“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.”
“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 .”
“Cheryl was great! 5 stars. I could tell immediately that she would really care about Lola and she did. She was a great communicator and a joy to work with –we’ll definitely ask her again.”
“Poppy loved her stay with Ileana! We really appreciated the daily updates Ileana sent of Poppy's adventures to the park, playing with her new friend Chrissy, and getting plenty of cuddles and attention. Will definitely go back to Ileana for Poppy's next stay!”
“Couldn't have been anymore comfortable with leaving my dog with someone. James and Myrna exceeded expectations with their care. They kept my labrador (Floki) for about a week and they texted us daily photos of him. They have an amazing yard which is kept up very nice as well as a doggy door that goes into their home. Their dog (Maggie Mae) is a well obedient dog too, which I'm sure our dog loved to play with every day. We will definitely use them again in the future the next time we need a sitter.”
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.
About: I’m a stay at home wife and mother of six. My children age from 15-29. I have a pet friendly home, but no pets of my own. I love to spoil them and send them back to their owners~ a lot like I do with my 4 grandchildren. I’m home full time. I have a very large privacy fence backyard as well as a doggie door for those fur babies that like to scope out the yard at their leisure. Fully privacy fenced large backyard, as well as ring cameras to keep an eye on fur babies when I’m not outside with them. I have a dog door to access the backyard for those that are comfortable with fur babies coming and going as they please.
About: I've had dogs all my adult life. In my childhood and adolescence I grew up surrounded by them. Today I am the mother of 2 teenagers, a 9-year-old boy, and a sweet young dog. I have weekdays and weekends available at different times. Holidays, all seasons. I can take care of your pet at my house, or go to yours to feed them and spend some time playing games with them. We have an enclosed patio, and pets will be treated as if they were in their own home with a welcoming family with a lot love.
“If I could leave a 10 star review, I would. She went above and beyond. She's amazing with dogs. You can rest assured that your dog is in a loving and happy environment. It's like your dog will be on vacation while you are. 10/10 will be using her next time we need a sitter.”
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.
“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.”
“Amelia was amazing and I am so thankful I found her on Rover to take care of my girls. She was very caring and asked all the details of their care before the visit as well as at drop off. She sent me tons of pictures and updates during the stay, and pick up was a breeze. I will definitely be using Amelia again for the next trip. Thank you, Amelia!”
“Ms. Robin is a beautiful soul. We became friends instantly at our meet'n greet with our Sammy boy. She took care of him like he was her own. She treated my husband, my kids and myself like family. She sent me pictures of Samson everyday and kept us updated on how he was doing. We are truly blessed to have found Ms. Robin. Now our Samson has two mommies. We didn't just find a great Rover sitter in Ms. Robin we found a new member of our family.”
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!!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Mobile is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $46 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.

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.
98% of sitters in Mobile 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 Mobile 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 Mobile.
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 Mobile. On Rover:
- 90% 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 Mobile 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.
