“We needed someone to watch a very active 1.5yr old Brittany, and we are really picky about who watches our animals. Sandra was recommended and boarding with her and Mark was the best experience ever. Missy’s stay with them was literally a doggy vacation with a Giant yard to play in, long walks, huge professional kennel for her to lounge in, and, picture/video updates every day! They even have a TV in the temperature controlled kennel space so our girl could listen to tv like she is used to at our house. I look forward to using them again. They are a bit of a drive for me but I will use them every time over trying any of the 15 closer results rover showed me. It is well worth the peace of mind knowing that your dogs are being pampered not just boarded.”
“Kayla is the best. She showed patience and understanding for my furbaby whom never stayed with anyone before. He received lots of love and got a chance to have a play date.”
“We had a friend cancel on us the very last minute before a week trip to Michigan. Andrea not only took Mikey for the week. We got pictures and updates every day. This is the second time we have used her. I would never trust another person with my dog. Excellent care.”
“Heather was wonderful! She has such a loving family and large property that just spoiled my dog. I was worried he wouldn't want to come home! I was very nervous to leave my baby but I instantly felt comfortable with Heather. All the pictures helped! Definitely using her again and telling everyone about her!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ms. Catherine was absolutely wonderful with Francois and Girbaud! From the moment we met her, I could tell she had a genuine love for animals and a calm, nurturing spirit that immediately put the boys at ease. She went above and beyond every step of the way—sending adorable photo updates, keeping me informed, and making sure they were comfortable, entertained, and well cared for the entire time. When I got home, both dogs were happy, relaxed, and delightfully tired—which to any dog parent means they had a great time! It’s clear she gave them plenty of exercise, play, and affection. Ms. Catherine treated them as if they were her own, and I truly appreciate her kindness, patience, and reliability. I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking for someone who’s attentive, trustworthy, and genuinely loves what she does, Ms. Catherine is the one. Francois, Girbaud, and I are so grateful to have found her! 🐾❤️”
“Dallas had an excellent experience. Jennifer did an awesome job. She kept me updated daily with pictures. My dog seemed to really enjoy his time there. I would definitely use her again in the future.”
“Megan was hands down the perfect person to watch our puppy, Siggy. She sent updates and took the best care of our dog. We were so worried about the socialization aspect, but her dogs welcomed Siggy into the dog clan right away. This was the best thing for her this weekend. I would definitely recommend Megan to anyone on or around post.”
“Nikki was great! We were in a pinch and needed a dog sitter last minute, and she truly saved us. She responded quickly, was flexible, and made the whole process stress free. Our pups was well cared for, happy, and when we returned. We’re so grateful for her help and will absolutely use her again!”
“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”
“I was able to book with Casey last minute and she took great care of my Sweetie. When my cousin picked my dog up she said my dog was walking around like she was home and comfortable. I would definitely rebook and you should too.”
“Kristina took excellent care of Skyy along with beautiful pictures sent daily of my fur baby which was a total plus! I will definitely be calling her again for pup care, thank you Kristina 🐶!”
“Second time bringing the dogs over and my experience with Awy and Stephanie definitely didn’t disappoint. She constantly send videos and pictures. What I love most is that she’s very special and caring with them. It’s like caring for them myself.”
“Olivia will be our go to person when we need a sitter if she’s available. She kept me informed and sent pictures during our trip. We were nervous since we haven’t had to leave Kelsi with anyone, but Olivia put us at ease. The quiet home atmosphere and Olivia’s warm personality was exactly what we were looking for. Kelsi was content and we will not hesitate to leave her again. Thank you Olivia for taking such good care of our senior lady. Do not hesitate using Olivia. Your loved one will be in good hands.”
“Loved Kaia and Desean! My little guy had sooo much fun! He was pretty much worthless for 3 days after picking him up because he was so tired! (And he can go for hours, so this made me extra happy lol) Will definitely be using them again and would highly recommend them if you have a friendly and hyper dog. :)”
“Lexie did such a great job with my fur baby Salem. I was gone for a week. I so worried to leave my pup for so long. Lexie and her husband were so sweet, and welcoming. We were able to me her fur babies they were so kind and got along perfectly with my girl. Lexie sent updates almost daily. Overall I am so happy with Lexie and how she took care of our baby. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“This was my first Rover experience and how amazing it was! Selau was able to help me board my 8 week old kitten last minute. She was great with communicating to book and along the way. I loved getting updates and pictures of my little girl too! It’s great to have someone who is kind and caring for our fur babies to help when we may have to step away! 10/10 and will certainly be back when I might need the help again! Best experience for me and my little kitten!🩷🫶🏻”
“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!”
“Gloria is a great sitter. She has a nice back yard with doggy door and is very responsive. She was able to accommodate all of my dog’s needs and sent me updates. Highly recommend!”
“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”

Samantha took amazing care of our German Shepherd while we were away on vacation. She provided daily updates which were much appreciated and continued to provide him his physical and mental enrichment. Samantha gave us peace of mind while we were away in vacation and I highly recommend her dog sitting services to anyone who needs them
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 $37.74 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 262 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.
