“We were looking for someone to make Spirit feel right at home. We feel like we accomplished that with Laura. She and Spirit hit it off right away. We plan on using her many more times in the future.”
“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!”
“Fantastic sitter! Mary was kind, and professional. She kept us posted every day and sent us daily pics. My dogs seemed very happy and comfortable around her. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Katherine did a fantastic job watching my 2 dogs! She is very consistent with timely replies and updates, complete with lots of pictures. My boys had an absolute blast and were well taken care of. I’m sure they can’t wait for their next “visit” ❤️”
“Leaving Cooper for a full week over the Fourth of July was a big deal for me, but from the very beginning I knew he was in great hands. Kristen welcomed him into her home like he was part of the family and kept me updated every day with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. The best part was seeing how happy and relaxed Cooper was when I picked him up. It was obvious he had been well cared for, loved, and made to feel at home. I never had to worry while I was away, and that is priceless. I would absolutely trust her with Cooper again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of him!”
“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 🐶!”
“Jessica was absolutely amazing with my dog, Greyson! She kept him for the weekend and was incredibly easy to communicate with very responsive and always keeping me updated. She sent photos and videos throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell immediately when Greyson came home that he had been in great hands. His behavior was noticeably different in the best way—he was happy, energetic, and relaxed. I’ve taken him to multiple sitters and boarding places through Rover before, and he usually comes back feeling lethargic. This time was completely different. You could really tell he was loved and well cared for. One of my favorite moments was seeing photos of him sitting by the fireplace, it truly felt like he was at home.”
“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.”
“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”
About: With over two years of professional animal care experience, I am available to run and walk with them, as well as play with them of course, or just check in on them throughout the day. I do not work and spend my day walking/exercising and taking care of my baby. This allows me to help fit into whatever their normal routine is easily! I am a stay at home mom and have plenty of time to provide attention, give walks and cuddle with your baby:) I can fit into whatever routine or schedule they need!
About: Here to make sure your 4 legged family feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and always do my best to stick to their normal routine so they feel as comfortable and loved as possible. I work Monday–Friday, but my schedule can be flexible at times. If you need pet care but aren’t sure whether my schedule will fit your needs, feel free to message me! I’m always happy to help whenever I’m able. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly pups. I crate trained both of my dogs while they were potty training, so I also have a large crate available if that fits your pet’s needs.
“I can't say enough good things about Alex and the care she provided for my four-legged friend. She sent photos every night and even sent videos as well! Her communication was very quick too, which I appreciate. I will definitely use her service again in the future!”
“Great experience! Our dogs were well cared for, and we appreciated the photos, updates, and the wonderful interaction with them. Thank you for taking such good care of our pets!”
“Marina was AMAZING. My baby had the best time and was under such great care with her. She made sure he was safe, had a full tummy, and was happy everyday and I can’t begin to thank her enough. I can’t imagine using any other sitter or boarding service other than her now that I’ve seen how awesome she is. You can tell she truly cares about these babies and it’s really comforting to see that. Would 1000% recommend to anyone looking for care for their animals!”
“My pup stayed with Tyila and her family while I went on vacation. The drop off and pick up was smooth. Communication was wonderful. Polly has stayed here a number of times and I know she is well cared for and loved when she visits. Highly recommend this sitter. We will visit again soon.”
“From our meet and greet, it was easy to see how wonderful Samantha would be with Rylee! She took the time to get to know Rylee and us. We had no apprehension about leaving Rylee with her. Samantha sent pictures and updates daily and Rylee had the best time! Samantha will definitely be our go-to sitter for Rylee!”
“There are not enough words to express how wonderful Veronica and her family cared for our lab mix puppy (5 months). Our dog was tired when she returned home, which told me she had the best time. Just two examples of the excellent care she provided...Veronica sent photo updates and she was willing to help our puppy meet other dogs (She had asked beforehand - again, just how thoughtful she is). The other example was our puppy came home not really caring for the food or water I placed down the moment we came home, which told me she was well fed and cared for. 10/10 would recommend and go with her again. Our puppy was so happy to be home, but she was sad on the car ride home because was leaving her new friends that took such wonderful care of her. Thank you so much!”
“Shuga was very excited at the meet and greet. Glad we did that first to make us both more comfortable before the Vacay. Nancy's home is very pet friendly and u can tell she likes her guests. Good to see the pictures while I was gone. Shuga must have really enjoyed her pawsome new friends because she has rested a lot since she got home. I would recommend Nancy and I will use her again.”

I want to take a moment to recognize and recommend Wags Whispers for anyone looking for outstanding care for their dog. Lex has stayed with them before, and this time they've cared for him for an entire week while we're out of town. I cannot say enough about the quality of care they provide. They have a beautiful home with plenty of space, a huge outdoor area for the dogs, walks, and even a swimming pool for dogs who enjoy swimming. They send pictures, give personal attention, and even provide a special keepsake photo. What impresses me just as much is that their rates remain very reasonable. There are places charging considerably more that don't provide nearly the personal experience that Wags Whispers does. When you're leaving a member of your family in someone else's care, peace of mind is priceless. I can leave Lex with them and know that he's safe, comfortable, loved, and being well cared for. So here's my personal recommendation: if you're looking for dependable, loving dog care, check out Wags Whispers. They are absolutely worth supporting. Thank you, Wags Whispers, for taking such good care of Lex!
If I could give Sandra and Mark more than 5 starts, I absolutely would. From the moment I dropped Lily off, I knew she was going to be loved and cared for like family. They have an incredible setup for dogs; a huge backyard with plenty of room to run and explore, and a dedicated space that is clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully put together with beds, toys, bowls, rugs, and everything a dog could need to feel right at home. The communication was beyond amazing. I got photos and videos constantly, and seeing Lily happily roaming, running, relaxing, and living her best life gave me so much peace of mind. It's obvious they genuinely enjoy spending time with the dogs in their care. And then there's Mark. Lily has him completely wrapped around her paw (lol)! 😂 She gets multiple walks a day, gets to hang out with him on the patio, and receives so much attention that I started to wonder if she wanted to come home with me at all. In fact, I think they've spoiled her so much that she even became selective about treats now. Princess behavior ONLY! 👑 It's clear that Sandra and Mark don't just "watch" the dogs; they truly care about them and go above and beyond to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, but they made it INCREDIBLY easy. I trust them completely and would recommend them to anyone without hesitation. Thank you BOTH for treating Lily like royalty! She had the vacation of a lifetime! ❤️🏝️
All I can say is wow. Madison went above and beyond to make our baby Greyson comfortable, even given our sweet little boy a bath after playing in the mud with her sweet Shepherds. Was excited to see me when I picked him up, but he seemed that he was torn and wanted to stay with Madison as well. Definitely will rebook.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
