“Sandra and Mark were so amazing with my two babies that they didn’t even want to come home, seriously! Sandra even found treats that my picky eater actually likes. I’d give them 100 stars if I could. The communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our trip to the beach knowing our babies were in good hands.”
“Mrs Catherine is the best person that took care of my golden doodle and this’s priceless to me. I really love that she was sending pictures and videos every single day and updating me on how Karol was doing. Please Do not hesitate to contact her for the care of your pet, as she will provide excellent care.She’ll be my dog sitter on our upcoming vacations.”
“A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! Andrea & family were incredible. First time leaving my fur baby with someone other than family. Certainly I was a bit nervous. I chose Andrea based on her reviews and genuine smile on the profile. She lived up to expectation and the reviews. Daily photo and updates were provided without request. She even bathe my boy, sent him home so fresh and so clean. I am certain I will be booking in the future, Thank you again for your warmth and care for Pooh! :-)”

“Thank you to Jennifer and her crew for loving our fur babies! Her communication was clear and her updates/photos showed our pups were playing/cuddling up with her family. We had peace of mind that they were in great hands while we were traveling.”
“Heather and the family took EXCELLENT care of my babies. I get so stressed whenever i leave them and they gave me such great peace of mind. My dogs loved the property to run and the care from the family. I could not recommend them more highly”
“Kaia & Desean were perfect for Tucker! Their property really does lend itself to boarding for dogs with wide open spaces for them to play in and company of their own pets too! They also hold the same values and expectations that we do in terms of his behavior, so felt truly comfortable that his training was continued as we hoped in our absence. Would definitely recommend them!”
“Kara took such great care of our dogs! She took us very last minute and was very accommodating! She offered pick up and drop off as well as grooming and bathing for both which I am extremely grateful for! The doggies came back happy, smelling good, looking fresh and well cared for! Definitely recommend and will be booking again!”
“Rebecca provided excellent care for my dog. She communicated daily and I felt assured my dog was well cared for. My dog had a good time and was welcomed to Rebecca s family. I hope to use her for future bookings and highly recommend her services.”
“Jennifer did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Grayson, while I was out of town. She sent regular updates with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. Communication was excellent, and I could tell Grayson was happy and well cared for. I’m very pleased with her service and would definitely trust her with Grayson again.”
“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!”
“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.”

“I am so happy I found Carly. I was going out of town for a 3 day getaway and my dog sitter cancelled the week of. Carly was thankfully able to take my fur baby and give her 1 on 1 attention! She eased my anxiety with daily updates and made sure my princess returned to me tangle free! We will definitely use Carly in the future.”
“Maddie was amazing! I got updates and pictures during my dog’s stay. She was attentive to his needs and worked with him to make sure he was comfortable throughout his stay”
“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 🐶!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Selau! She was able to accommodate our last-minute boarding request, which was a huge relief. From the moment we dropped our dog off, the intake process was quick and easy, and pickup was just as smooth. She was an excellent communicator, sending regular photos and updates so we always knew how our dog was doing. I especially appreciated that she reached out when she noticed he wasn’t eating. He’s always a little hesitant to eat in a new environment, but it meant a lot that she was paying such close attention to him. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in such caring and capable hands. We would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive pet sitter.”

100% of Smiths Station 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 Smiths Station 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 Smiths Station 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 Smiths Station.
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 Smiths Station 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.
