Riley seemed to have a great time playing with friends and snuggling with the family which was welcoming and friendly. The yard was very large for energetic play. Thanks, Rachel.

Amy has been watching Greta, my very active GSP puppy, these past couple of weeks and so far it has been great. She has a dog and a toddler that gets plenty of interaction with our puppy and Greta is always happy to go back to see her new friends. I am very appreciative of Amy’s willingness to work with our busy schedules that fluctuate for drop off and pick up.

Known for my reliability, patience, and big heart for furry friends, I bring positive energy and genuine care to every walk, visit or stay. I have 8 years of experience caring for pets of my friends and families…I’m open to all types of care weather it’s just a walk, need me to let them out, keep them at my place or I stay at yours! I work at UAB Hospital 3 days a week, even on days I work I can let them out before after and on my hour break! I will make any accommodations necessary for you and your animals! I live right by railroad park, so that area would be perfect for any animal to be walked in! I like by myself with no pets in my apartment.

About: Hi! I’m Jenn — a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I have two fur babies of my own — Moxxi, a sweet lab mix, and Obi, a gentle Staffordshire terrier mix — both rescues with big hearts and friendly personalities. I offer boarding and daycare in my home so your pets can feel safe, loved, and relaxed in their own familiar space. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks and can tailor visits around your pet’s unique routine. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, medication, or just a little extra TLC, I’ll be there to care for them like one of my own. You’ll receive regular photo updates and quick responses while you’re away — I know how important peace of mind is when it comes to our furry family members. If your pet has special needs, training cues, or specific routines, I’m happy to follow them closely to help your pet feel at ease. Your fur baby will be treated with patience, love, and a little extra spoiling 🐾 My schedule is flexible, which allows me to offer consistent care throughout the day. I’m available for potty breaks, walks, check-ins, and overnight stays depending on what your pet needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize keeping their routine consistent, their environment calm, and their safety top of mind. I always follow your instructions closely — whether it’s feeding, medications, potty breaks, or playtime — and make sure doors, gates, and crates are secure before I leave. I approach each pet with patience, respect, and lots of love, tuning into their unique personality and needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or somewhere in between, I aim to create a peaceful, predictable experience that helps them feel safe and cared for while you’re away. You’ll also receive regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing — because trust and communication matter just as much as belly rubs. 🐶💛

Dave and his family (including his canine kiddos!) were AMAZING! I cannot speak highly enough or give enough kudos and praise! Dave was an excellent communicator; he was warm, welcoming, and caring. My little guy was happy and excited to see Dave’s pups and Dave, and to me, says everything I need to know!

About: My Boarding Policies: I want every dog to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they’re with me, so these guidelines help keep things running smoothly for everyone. 💬 Meet & Greet I always do a quick meet & greet for new clients so I can get to know your pup’s personality and make sure we’re a great fit! I will need an emergency contact and vet reference. (Last minute bookings happen, I am willing to work around this for this purpose, just reach out to me) 💉 Health & Vaccinations For everyone’s safety, all dogs should be up to date on rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella. Please also make sure your pup is free of fleas/ticks and not showing signs of illness. ⏰ Drop-Off & Pick-Up I’m flexible, but I try to keep drop-offs and pick-ups within agreed time windows so the day stays smooth and predictable for the dogs. If you’re running late, no worries — just let me know! If at any point I can not get ahold of you, this will result in me reaching out to Rover Support or possibly Animal Control (depending on the situation) 🍽️ Food, Treats & Supplies Please bring enough food for the whole stay, plus any medication with simple instructions. If anything unexpected comes up, I’ll let you know right away. 🐾 Behavior & Comfort I welcome all sorts of personalities! I just ask that pups are: Friendly with people and other dogs Able to be crated or safely separated if needed Not showing aggression If your dog has any quirks (anxiety, chewing, reactivity, etc.), please share — it helps me give them the best care. 🩺 Safety First If a true emergency happens, I’ll contact you immediately and may take your dog to the vet if needed. Owners are responsible for any vet costs. 📸 Updates I love sending photos! Expect at least one update per day — or more if you’d like. Just tell me your preference. 📅 Cancellations & Holidays I follow Rover’s cancellation policy and keep things fair, but holiday bookings may fill up fast, so early scheduling helps! I loved animals for as long as I can remember, and pets have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, personalities, and ages — from bouncy puppies and curious kittens to senior pets who just need a little extra love and patience. When your pet is with me, I’ll treat them like family. I enjoy long walks, playtime in the yard, and plenty of snuggles on the couch. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether they’re energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’ll make sure they get the love and attention they deserve. I provide full-time dog care, including doggy daycare, boarding, drop-ins, and walks. When doing Drop ins or walks, if you are outside of a 5 mile radius, a small fee will have to be added for the distance traveled. Each day starts with morning walks and potty breaks, followed by supervised playtime and socialization. Midday is quiet time for rest and meals, with afternoon walks, and play. Evenings include dinner, potty breaks, and calm activities to help dogs wind down. Overnight, I monitor boarding dogs to ensure they’re safe and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, secure, and loving environment where your furry friend can feel at home. All interactions are supervised, and I make sure playtime is safe and stress-free. I follow any specific instructions you provide for feeding, medications, or routines to ensure your pet’s well-being. I believe trust is earned, which is why I maintain open communication with owners throughout their pet’s stay or visit. You’ll receive updates, photos, and messages so you can see how your pet is doing in real-time. My home is pet-friendly, calm, and structured, offering plenty of space for exercise, rest, and fun. I strive to create a positive experience that leaves your pet happy, healthy, and eager to come back.

I have a fenced in yard, harnesses, and daily walks. We always keep the TV on so they do not feel lonely while we’re at work, along with constant trips to the dog park.

With my vet tech background, I’m confident handling pets of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior companions. My goal is to make your pets feel at ease and cared for just like they would with you.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs most of my life, ever since I was first introduced to them at nine years old. I’ve spent the most time with American and European bloodline Great Danes — a breed I absolutely adore, though I love all dogs deeply. In 2022, I worked for a professional dog care business, where I was responsible for four European Great Danes daily — all in the same home. I walked each dog three times a day, fed them individually twice a day, and made sure they had plenty of playtime and enrichment outside of their crates. I also assisted with the birth of a litter of puppies, helping weigh them, check their temperatures, and feed them a blended diet as they grew. It was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had. If you’re considering booking with me, feel free to text me — I’d be happy to share photos of my experience. Looking forward to meeting your fur baby! 🐾 I’m currently on summer break from college which gives me complete flexibility to schedule any days needed I’m available Sun-Sat so feel free to reach out. In my home, your pet will be treated like family. I stick to a consistent feeding schedule, offer walks three times a day, and provide regular potty breaks. If allowed, I also work on basic training using treats. I make sure your pup gets plenty of playtime, cuddles, and affection throughout the day. I usually let dogs roam freely, but at bedtime they’ll sleep in my room so I can keep a close, loving eye on them through the night. 🐾

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Smoke Rise

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 192 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Smoke Rise. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Smoke Rise commute.

If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.

Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.

A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.

Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:

  • For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
  • For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
  • For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.

Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!

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.

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 .

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 192 sitters in Smoke Rise, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.

You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
