“He took such great care of my little pup! When I picked up my dog after his first 4 day stay with Doug, he was happy and settled (he is a sensitive dog! So I know if hasn’t been well with someone). I’m so grateful, Doug was wonderful!”

“Wade and Morgan are AMAZING!! This was the longest I have ever left my pup so I was very nervous about being away from him but they made the entire experience effortless. They sent me picture updates every single day if not twice a day! My dog seemed to not want to leave their house and I could tell that he was very happy and very very well taken care of. I would recommend them to anyone who asks and I will definitely be booking with them again in the future! Thank you so so much Wade and Morgan I appreciate you guys more than you know!”

“Jonathan was fantastic! He accepted my booking request on short notice, which was a huge help. He kept me updated throughout my dog’s stay with pictures, giving me peace of mind while I was away. He was also very flexible with both drop-off and pick-up times, making everything easy and stress-free. Jonathan and his family were kind and welcoming, and it was clear my dog was well cared for and loved!”

“We have never had a bad booking on Rover BUT Chyra is the best, BAR NONE! She provides great instructions to set expectations. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND treating a hot spot that appeared, she gave me something to read explaining my dog's behavior AND she even went to the store for us to get some extra supplies we needed. If all of that doesn't say enough, i couldn't get Chadwick to leave with me... HOW EMBARRASSING! It goes without saying that we've found our forever sitter because the icing on the top is she's :10 minutes away from us!”

“We cannot express enough gratitude for Ryan and his wonderful family for taking care of our beloved dog, Lola, during our recent family trip. From the moment we met them, we knew Lola was in the best hands. Ryan and his family were incredibly thoughtful, caring, and gentle with her, treating Lola as if she were their own. Lola can be quite shy and anxious around new people, but under their loving care, she felt safe and happy. Ryan's attentiveness and the warmth of his family truly shone through, making Lola's time away from us comfortable and stress-free. The updates and pictures they sent showed us just how much love and attention Lola was receiving, and it brought us immense peace of mind. We are deeply touched by the kindness and compassion Ryan and his family showed Lola. They went above and beyond to ensure she felt loved and secure. It's not easy to leave a cherished pet behind, but knowing Lola was with such amazing people made all the difference. We are forever grateful for their exceptional care and the genuine love they shared with our sweet girl. Thank you, Ryan, for being such a wonderful caretaker. Your kindness will always be remembered.”

“★★★★★ Absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Hampton and Willow, and I could tell they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She went above and beyond when I unexpectedly got a flat tire and even brought the dogs home to me so I didn’t have to worry about getting them. That meant so much to me! She was kind, dependable, communicative, and truly treated my dogs like her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their fur babies! 🐾❤️”

About: Dogs have been part of my life for over 20 years, and I absolutely love having them around! 🐾 I’ve had four dogs who were with me from puppyhood through their golden years, so I know just how much our furry family members mean to us. These days, I’m a proud dog mom to Cash, our Corgi, who is VERY excited to make new doggy friends! 🥰 I’m also an honorary aunt to a Golden Retriever, so you could say our family has a soft spot for four-legged guests. Your pup will be treated like family while they’re here. ❤️ My home is a place where dogs can relax, play, get lots of attention, and feel loved while their humans are away. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and give them a fun little vacation of their own! 🐶🏡💕 Since I work from home, I’m able to be home with your pup for most of the day! 🐶💕 I have a flexible schedule, so I can accommodate regular potty breaks, playtime, meals, and plenty of attention throughout the day. My home is always busy with love, and belly rubs! 🐾🏡 Your pup’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! 🐶❤️ I have a securely fenced section of the yard where pups can safely enjoy some fresh air, sniff around, and get their zoomies out. I also regularly treat our home and yard for common pests to help keep our furry guests comfortable and protected. Inside, I’m happy to follow your pup’s usual routine—whether they prefer to relax and free-roam with us or have some quiet time in their kennel. I’ll follow your instructions and your pup’s needs to help them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while they’re staying with us. 🏡🐾

“They took great care of my Aussiedoodle. He looked so happy in every photo. She sent plenty of photos and him and each photo had a little blurb of how he was doing. It was very cute! I would totally trust them again with him. It makes it more enjoyable for him that they have their own dogs as well. I know he enjoyed playing with them.”

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 Shannon 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 Shannon.

<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 Shannon 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.
