“Bruno seems to be happy every time we take him. She also sent us wonderful photos at Christmas of Bruno by her tree, looked professional. They were great! Love the texts we get throughout the week to let us know how he’s doing.”
“Kristin was great with my dogs. She gave medicine for one and cooked them special foods that I brought. She sent pictures and videos and was very prompt with any questions/concerns I had. I’d definitely recommend Kristin for your pup!”
“Our first experience with Rover was awesome. Corey made us feel at ease and sent us a great picture of Archie having the time of his life. If Archie could talk I know he would say that his stay was fun-filled and active and that he can't wait to return! He came home and immediately went to sleep. I think we are all looking forward to his return visit - he truly came home a very happy dog!”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of our little Lady! Sending pics, and updates make leaving her a little less stressful. She says Thank you also! Will definitely use you again!”

“Kenneth watched our pup, Onyx, in his home for 1 week. Kenneth was absolutely wonderful to work with! He took wonderful care of Onyx— so much so that we weren’t sure if Onyx would want to come home! Kenneth communicated with us frequently, sent photos and put our minds at ease while traveling! We can’t wait to work with Kenneth in the future!”
About: “Unlike many sitters, I’m home all day which means your dog gets consistent attention, care, and companionship. I maintain a peaceful, structured home environment and only take a limited number of dogs to ensure each one receives personalized love and supervision.” “Being home full-time allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. Your dog will be included in our day with regular walks, playtime, and constant supervision in a relaxed, loving home environment “Dogs in my care enjoy a spacious, fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I live in a quiet, safe neighborhood ideal for stress-free walks, and I’m located less than a mile from Loxley Municipal Park for extra activity and enrichment opportunities.”
“Sydney was wonderful—she sent photos of Leonidas everyday he was with her and he was such a happy pup when I picked him up! I can feel how positive the energy is in Sydney’s home and how well she cared for him. He loved playing with her dog and being with a family while I was away. Thank you so much Sydney!”
“Omg, I can not rave enough about the care that our pup received from Christina and her amazing family! They treated Koda like their own. And we received several photos and feedback the 9 days we were away. They put a smile on my face every time. 10/10 recommend!!!”
“Jana was great, accommodating our drop off and pickup times. Sent updates with picture everyday of our dog Chase staying with her getting lots of love and cared for well. Would definitely ask Jana to watch out. Chase again.”
“Mariah was a perfect dog sitter for dog, Winston! She and her son took him on many walks, got to play with their friendly animals, and she sent lots of wonderful picture updates that let us know Winston was having a great time. Would definitely recommend!”
“Taylor was great with my cat! She kept me updated on her well-being and Micha was happy when she returned. Taylor has experience with insulin injections and helped administer them to my diabetic cat which was a life saver. Wonderful stay.”
About: I've had pets my entire life. I currently have a 12 year old Cocker Spaniel named Sophie. She is getting on in years and requires a little extra care. I am able to care for older pets that may require extra TLC as well as younger pets. I would love to care for your babies! I currently work three days a week, so Saturday through Wednesdays are best for me. I will try to work with you on the other days if needed! I have a fenced in backyard and a sweet girl to keep your pet company. I can crate your pet if needed. I am also available to sit with your pet and go for walks.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Summerdale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 399 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Summerdale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Summerdale 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 Summerdale 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 Summerdale 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 Summerdale.
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 Summerdale 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.
