“Alona is absolutely amazing!! Very attentive and detailed. She communicates well with updates and she really put my mind at ease when I needed a dog sitter in a clutch. My 🐕 was so happy when I picked him up that he didn’t want to leave 😃 I will definitely call her to dog sit again. Thanks Alona!!!”
“Jennifer and her family are awesome! We have left our dog Ace with them a handful of times and can rest assured knowing that he is loved and well taken care of! They have even bought him a toy of his own! Jennifer is wonderful at keeping us updated with lots of pictures throughout his stay and has been very flexible with us on pickup/drop off times. I could not recommend them enough! Our dog loves them and is always excited to see them when he comes for a stay.”
“This was our second time booking with Sandra and Mark! My dogs love it there and they love my dogs, and I love how I have the peace of mind that my fur babies are well cared for. Thanks y’all!”
“This is the second time Megan has watched one of our dogs, and the first time for our other dog. Megan is always so friendly and took great care of our babies! They get along great with Megan’s dogs and we’re so exhausted when we got home. I know they had a great time! I really appreciate her responsiveness to messages and pictures of my babies!”
“Kara was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and I’m so glad we found Kara. Our dog had such a fun time with her dogs and family. She sent us photos of Saint during his stay. She was so responsive from the beginning all the way through. You can tell she loved on our Saint like she loves on her own family.”
“Debbie was great....she gave us regular updates on Roodles. She took very care of our dog....we were very impressed. She even had a meet and greet in the beginning to meet roodles....we felt very comfortable leaving Roodles with her. Our dog is scared of fireworks and Debbie comforted her and got her through it on NY eve”
“Olivia is amazing with my sweet pup. I never worry when she is with her. She adheres to all of my specifics and is very communicative. I’m always at ease when my pup is with Olivia”
“Loved loved loved Lexie ! She was sure to keep me updated on my baby throughout my whole vacation. There was never a time where I had to worry if he was safe and in good hands because Lexie is sooo pure ! And she is a GREAT photographer Lol , Everyday I woke up with beautiful picture's of Chapo 10/10 highly recommended 🩷🤗”
“Kaia was absolutely wonderful with our pup..she was quick to communicate and we felt very comfortable knowing our dog was in such capable hands. She is kind and warm and cares for your dog with love.”
“Brian, his wife, and his home are the perfect place to board your dog. My dog Cali has felt right at home and couldn't be any more spoiled. The attention, energy, and love she recieved while staying with them couldn't have been more perfect. Their house was immaculate, the yard, and location is perfect. Brian is easy to communicate with and responsive and very flexible. I was going out of town for work and needed a place for my dog and wasn't sure how long I'd be gone. They were helpful and extending was easy. If you're looking for a loving home away from home you don't need to look any farther.”
“Keshya took very good care of my 9yo Casper. She took pics and gave me updates. She also quickly responded when I sent a text to check on him. Casper stayed overnight and appeared content at pick up. Thanks! I will recommend Keshya and choose her to sit my dog again.”
“Kept me informed daily about how my dog was doing. Loved getting the pics she sent. Was flexible when my flight was cancelled and had no issues with taking care of my dog an additional day.”
“This was the perfect family to watch our dogs! The family I can trust. They are responsible, kind and helpful. I wasn‘t worried about my fur babies at all. And looks like our dogs loved to stay with them too. Even my little chihuahua didn‘t lose any weight(he always stops eating or eats very little when I am not with him). Also, Nikki was sending photos of dogs everyday and they looked so relaxed and happy 😊”

I provide a loving, patient environment where every animal feels safe, happy, and well-cared-for, ensuring their routines, exercise, and comfort are a top priority. As a homeschool family, we’re home throughout the day, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. Our flexible schedule allows us to include walks, feeding, and cuddle time naturally in our daily rhythm—your pet becomes part of our family’s routine. We have two dogs, Balto and Bayleigh. They are friendly and love meeting new friends. We live on 25 acres, and have cultivated a friendly environment for dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. 😊
“We will def be returning to Samantha & family. She sent our pups home with treats and such a sweet thank you card for allowing her to keep our pups. We should be saying thank you for keeping them on such short notice :)”
“If I could give more stars for Carly, I would. We were worried about someone taking care of our beloved pet Chase. He's a Vizsla, if anyone knows about this breed knows that they're very attached to their owners and many times suffers from separation anxiety as ours does. We are retired so we spent every day with him, and rarely live him alone. For our 41 wedding anniversary, we decided to go on a cruise so we spent a lot of time thinking about what to do with Chase, but we were lucky to find the best person for the job Carly and her husband. Were a lot better than we expected. Can't recommend highly enough to anyone who is in a similar situation. Thank you Carly for the bottom of our hearts for taking good care of Chase. Everything went perfect in our vacation thanks to you, and your love and dedication to Chase. Respectfully, Haby and Cristina”

Andrea is an amazing dog sitter! Our 2 Rottweiler pups had an absolute wonderful time with her. Once we saw the initial connection, sensed her love for animals, and received the updates with pics, we were able to take our trip with complete peace of mind. That is priceless!! Thank you so much, Andrea!
Alex and her husband were awesome from when we did a meet and greet, to dropping off and picking up Tobias. My wife and I were really nervous about leaving our 'son' with another family for a few days, but Alex updated us daily which included pictures! Tobias looked extremely comfortable and well taken care of the day we picked him up! My wife and I would not hesitate to rebook with her and we highly recommend having her watch your fur babies!
Could not recommend her enough! Claudia was communicative, updated me on how my pup was doing multiple times throughout the day, sent me many pics/vids showing me he was having a great time. And when I picked him up, he was a tired HAPPY pup. I will certainly be booking again!
Heather was absolutely amazing! We boarded our dog with her while we were out of town and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was communicative, caring, and treated our pup like her own. We came home to one happy dog and will definitely be booking with Heather again!
Alona is absolutely amazing!! Very attentive and detailed. She communicates well with updates and she really put my mind at ease when I needed a dog sitter in a clutch. My 🐕 was so happy when I picked him up that he didn’t want to leave 😃 I will definitely call her to dog sit again. Thanks Alona!!!
Barkley loves spending time with Meredith, Darren and Koda! The home is super clean, the backyard is a hit for Barkley to be able to run around with Koda and photos are send daily of Barkley's time there. I feel 100% comfortable with Barkley in their care when we are away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Phenix City on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 249 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Phenix City. 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.
100% of Phenix City 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 Phenix City 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 Phenix City 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 Phenix City.
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 Phenix City 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.
