“Nicole did an amazing job watching Mocha while we were traveling out of state. It was the first time both my husband and I would be away from her for longer than a day and we certainly had some worries. Nicole eased all our concerns and treated mocha like she was one of her own pups from the second she met her. Nicole kept us updated daily on how Mocha was doing which certainly comforted my dog mom heart. I HIGHLY recommend Nicole to everyone! She knows what she’s doing and gives unlimited amounts of love to your fur babies when you can’t be there to do it yourself”

“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!”

“Jessica was great with our baby. We have never left her with anyone and we did not know what to expect but she sent us pictures and let us know what was going on. She answered the messages and kept us informed. She even gave our baby her special homemade food because she was not eating at first. I would definitely recommend her.”

Was unsure about Kane with kids but she did an amazing job keeping them on a routine for zero interaction and kept me 100% updated on anything that was going. She is a wonderful dog mom and mom and will keep your baby’s safe during their stay. She will be my number one pick for future vacations.”

“Great stay overall. Our dog is very well behaved and was doing very well living in the house. Then we got a call from the sitter's neighbor that found her roaming around the neighborhood (had my phone on the collar). Looks like she left the house while nobody was in. Apart from that, a great and welcoming host and a beautiful countryside.”

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.

About: Taken care of all animals different pieces and sizes! I live to go on runs so if your doggo needs some energy expenditure I can make that happen run usually span from 2 miles up to 13miles! My doggies run every other day and go to the dog park every day in between! Very quiet household! So if you need your doggies tired just let me know! Live in a large apartment so there is plenty of space for them to play but pets are taken out for runs and dog park pretty much every day.

“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!”

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.

Most bookings cost between $28 and $56 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

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.
