“We had to evacuate due to Hurricane Ida. Our dog was confused as to what was going on, as this was her first log road trip. We found April while in Tuscaloosa and I can't say enough good things about the experience our dog had. She made our pup feel like she was part of her house. On pickup, we had a tail wagging, well adjusted pup who thought she just came off vacation. I cannot recommend April enough.”
“Cassidy took wonderful care of our baby! We had boarded her before and she was miserable. From the pictures that Cassidy sent daily, Blue had a vacation too! I will absolutely be using Cassidy again! She was wonderful. Highly recommend”
“Audrey is fantastic! She took such great care of Mylo and even stayed with him overnight. My fur baby loves being with her, and she’s always so thoughtful and attentive to his needs. Thank you, Audrey!”
About: I had a Yorkie for 13 years (he passed away last year), and my mother and I cared for him together. I love small and medium dogs and being able to snuggle with them! I do not have much experience with animals besides my own pet, but I am eager to dog sit and get to know your pup! Many of my friends dog sit and I am well aware of the responsibility of taking care of a pet is. Because I just lost a dog, I want even more than usual to pet every dog I see, and so I feel like this would be a perfect opportunity for me to hang out with some super sweet animals that will make me feel better!
About: I have grown up with dogs for my entire life and I now have a cat of my own. I have taken care of friends and families animals in the past and I am very reliable, caring, and friendly. Animals bring me so much joy and I treat any animal as if it were my own. I am working in a salon four days out of the week but I will be available in the mornings and the evenings of any day to provide attention to your pet. Given that I have a cat of my own, I know how angry and hurt I would be if I put her in the care of someone else and she was neglected. With that being said, you can trust that I will not put you in that position! Animals are innocent and unable to communicate their needs. Not only will I provide the essentials, I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is happy and comfortable!
About: I’m a long time animal lover. I have been a trusted pet sitter for years through friends and referrals, now I’d like to offer reliable, professional care to my neighbors and community. My schedule is extremely flexible. I can board, I can go to you as needed, I have the time to take your pet out often and make sure they get all the zoomies out before they return home. I provide a clean, safe, and calm environment where your dog can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive, reliable, and prioritize safety, structure, and clear communication at all times.
About: Hi! My name is Emma and I’m a student at the Univeristy of Alabama! I’ve been dog sitting/walking throughout highschool and college, and I have a few pups of my own back home :) I’ve also done some dog fostering as well. Im currently a full time student, but have lots of free time during my day as an online student. I have a part time job aside from Rover, but am very flexible! I absolutely adore dogs and I take time to take mine on long walks daily when I’m back home from school. Exercise and play is super important to me!
“Breanna was amazing - she sat my dogs last minute and was great about sending pictures with them, flexible with pick up and drop off, and helped me enjoy the weekend worry free knowing she had my pups. Will def be sitting with her again!”
“Danielle was in every sense excellent. She was far more capable than myself of watching these guys and was so chilled out during their entire stay as if to say, “don’t worry, i’ve got it.” My guys, Robby and Zoe, would exceedingly recommend that you book her at once. Thank you.”
About: I have loved all animals my whole life. I am currently working on applying to college for veterinary medicine and thought that this job fit perfect with my interests and future aspirations. I am currently in school so my best and most available times are in the early morning or evenings during the week. Sundays are very open. My schedule does move around so other times may be available as well. Just reach out! I have 2 dogs of my own. Both are french bulldogs, one is 11 and the other is 4 years old. They are very friendly with other dogs. I have a fenced backyard as well as a dog park down the street from my house.
About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog since I was around the age of 9. I’ve also been trusted by many family and friends to take care of their pets. I would love to care for your pet like my own! I’m a stay at home mom, so i’m free any day of any week to keep your animals! I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I have a okay sized yard for your pet to run and play, I can create if needed. I’m more than happy to travel to you to care for them!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Northport
Leanna was awesome great with communication directions flexibility on time she was awesome with Barkley. She also gave me a great restaurant and parking locations. I was there for a game. I will definitely use her again when I come back to Tuscaloosa very easy to get along with With and Sweet and she Barkley really liked her. I would definitely recommend her if you’re in Tuscaloosa.
We drove from Florida for a concert and had Jennifer watch our dogs while we were gone for the night. She was sooo sweet and I felt really comfortable with her watching my two dogs. They came back happy and sleepy from all the playing they did! She was super communicative. If I’m ever in the area again I would def reach back out for another booking
Katy was awesome with my senior girl, Marley! She’s patient, welcoming, and made my pupper feel at home at her place while I was transitioning to Tuscaloosa for a new job. She’s communicative and was a great help to me! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a pet sitter in the area!

There are 83 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Northport. About 98% of Northport sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

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.
