“Teresa and her husband were the first sitters we used on Rover and it was an amazing experience. They made sure to update us with text & photos. They treated Duke and cookie as if they were their own. definitely recommend them and will be using them again.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my dedication to providing personalized care for each dog. I have extensive experience in training puppies, ensuring they develop good habits early on. Additionally, I specialize in senior dog care, offering gentle and attentive support for older pets. My approach is all about understanding each dog's unique needs and making sure they feel coming and loved while you're away. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I make sure to set aside time every day for feeding, walking, and playing with my furry friends. It's essential to me to prioritize their well-being and happiness, so I always make sure they get the attention and care they need. Whether it's a quick walk in the morning or some playtime in the evening, I love being there for them and making sure they feel loved and cared for. When I'm caring for pets in my own home, I make sure to create a safe and comfy environment. I have designated spaces for them to sleep, play, and eat. I keep a close eye on them and make sure they get plenty of exercise and love. At a client's home, I stick to the pet's regular routine as much as possible. I follow any specific instructions the owner gives me to make sure their pet feels comfortable and secure. Whether it's feeding schedules, medication, or favorite toys, I make sure to keep everything consistent so the pet feels right at home.
“Danielle and her family did an amazing job looking after our girl. She sent lots of photos and was super communicative. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“I love the peace of mind I have leaving our pups with Sage and knowing that they will be in great care! She sends pics and updates throughout their stay. She's knowledgeable about our Frenchie's limitations. Sage is flexible with our schedules and our pups seem to make themselves right at home when we drop them off. So glad we found such a reliable sitter!”
“Chris and his family were wonderful! We booked last minute and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Super communicative and loved on our pups like they were his own. We Will be booking with Chris whenever we need a sitter.”
“Cassidy took care of our big ol’ baby like he was one of her own. She sent multiple pictures and updates everyday and we will definitely use her as a sitter when we go out of town again! Kylo loved being in her home.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ashley was absolutely wonderful! My reservation was from October 9–13, and she went above and beyond by picking up my baby Ace from the kennels. From the very start, she made me feel completely at ease. She sent frequent updates and adorable pictures that showed just how much Ace was being loved and spoiled. 🐾❤️ It’s clear she truly cares for the pets she watches—Ace came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. I’m so grateful for her kindness and professionalism. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”
“I had a great experience boarding my Willow here. He took really good care of him and kept me updated while I was away, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. It’s always nerve-wracking leaving your dog with someone new, but this was such a positive experience. Highly recommend!”
“Kimberly has a very clean and welcoming home. She also has a small, friendly dog, along with cats and chickens, and it is clear she is truly an animal lover. She was very attentive to Lulu and made me feel comfortable leaving my fur baby in her care. Kimberly mentioned that Lulu was her first Rover sit, but honestly, it felt like she had been doing this for a while. She sent photos and videos, provided reassurance, and kept me updated throughout Lulu’s stay. I highly recommend Kimberly! I left in a rush because I did not account for the time zone change while heading back home, but I wanted to make sure she knew how much I appreciated her watching Lulu.”
“This is our dogs first time being boarded. We didn’t know how this would go and it went beautifully! Pedro did a meet with us prior to him boarding so our dog would feel more comfortable. Pedro was super knowledgeable and attentive to our dogs shyness and being anxious. Let’s just say our dog is a new dog! He loves other dogs and loves Pedro. Pedro sent us photos daily of our dogs daily activities and him playing with other dogs. I definitely will be using Pedro again!!! Hands down best experience EVER!”
“I could tell from the pictures Rachael shared with me of Buster Brown that he was very happy spending the weekend with her family. I think he even got to share a princess tent with her daughter!! I felt like Rachael and family loved my sweet boy and missed him after I picked him. It’s great to know your best friend is so well taken care of!”
“Some people you just know you can trust early on when you meet them and Ramona is one of those people. She asks the questions you expect an experienced sitter to ask and has a safe and comfortable place for your pooch to stay.”
“Jennifer was great with my little buddy ‘Valentine’. She shared photos throughout his stay and sent him home with a bag of bacon strips. (A bag he chewed through later that night to indulge himself - caught him with a strip hanging out his mouth!!🤪)”
“Elimarliz was super sweet. Received an update everyday and was just very grateful and appreciative of Elimarliz watching our 5 month old puppy! Definitely will use again and recommend booking with!”

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 Skipperville 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 Skipperville 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 Skipperville 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 Skipperville.
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 Skipperville 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.
