“Murphy is a very apprehensive dog but BobbieJo takes the time to love on her and sends us updates with pictures to let us know she's doing well! We are a repeat customer and will be seeing BobbieJo in the future, highly recommend.”
“We are so grateful for Hayley and her care of our Tilly. Even when we needed someone last minute, Hayley generously helped us out. It gives me great peace of mind that Tilly is with a family being given personalized care while we are away instead of a lonely kennel.”
“Sarra was very accommodating for a last minute get away. She sent frequent updates with pictures and was very friendly at drop off and pick up. It was such a pleasure meeting her and I am really glad I found a loving sitter for our fur baby. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs and I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“We couldn’t have picked a better person to keep Lulu when we went on vacation for a week! The picture updates, the videos, the daily feedback on how she was doing. I would absolutely recommend Jen to anyone! We are so thankful for her and her family! You will not find a better sitter for your dog!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy giving pets the attention, care, and affection they deserve. I’m dependable, patient, and comfortable following each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of cuddles. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my routine, and I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and other pet care needs throughout the week. I’m happy to work with each pet’s normal schedule and can be flexible when needed. I’ll always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I will carefully follow any feeding, walking, medication, or care instructions you provide and keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible. I’ll make sure doors, gates, leashes, and crates are secure, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and doing well.
“Cherie is fantastic! I kept having to extend my time needed for a pet sitter as I’m moving and she had no problem still seeing my kitties. Cherie spent time with my cats and went above and beyond to refill their water towers and clean their litter boxes. She ensured my home was safe and secure and I can tell my kitties loved her. Thank you so much Cherie!”
“Dustin was absolutely amazing! He took such great care of Juno. I didn’t worry one second about her. He kept me informed throughout her stay, let her run and play, and pampered her better than I do! I can’t recommend Dustin for pet sitting and boarding highly enough.”
“I really can’t say enough great things about Georgia and her pack Ivan, Gus, and Misha. I am rebooking now if that tells you anything. She has a calm, caring, confidences that my dog responds really well to and her property is set up for fun structured play. She updates frequently with pictures and Champ comes home happy and tired after a stay with her. I highly recommend her!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Rock Run home-away-from-home, 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 Rock Run.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Rock Run 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 , 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 .
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.
