“This was our second time booking with Kristin, and once again, we were beyond impressed! She’s incredibly responsive and consistently sends great pictures and videos of our pups, which we really appreciate. It’s clear they feel completely comfortable in her care. When our flight home was delayed, she was so flexible and understanding. We’re so grateful to have found her!”
“We traveled from MN to vacation in Gulf Shores, AL. This was our first time using Rover. He has a wonderful yard/set up. We felt confident in leaving our Chocolate Lab with Corey for 5 nights. Corey is very easy going and mellow which we like (especially for our chocolate Lab puppy). I will recommend Corey to my family and friends.”
“My fur baby was so well taken care of. I was updated with pictures during his stay. Im guessing he had lots of play time as he came home and wanted to play. Sweet and jumping around with a toy I was so happy to see him this way. So im assuming he enjoyed his time with other dogs.”
“Second time to use Natalie, and we were not disappointed! She and her family were very caring and treated my dog as if he were part of their family. He came home tired and I believe a little disappointed that the fun had to end. We will definitely return!”
“Bruno had a great experience staying with Michael. He allowed us to come meet him and his dogs prior to the scheduled boarding. He also provided photos and a video while we were out of town. Highly recommend Michael!”
“Our dogs think they are at Doggy Disney when they stay with Jennifer. They love her and her pups. It is a happy and playful environment for them. They come home happy and exhausted from play. HIGHLY recommend!!!”
“Belinda did a great job watching our dog Jack for a night, and I think he had a good time at her house. She has a very nice house and a nice yard for the dogs to play in.”
“From the moment I dropped Leo off, I was sent photos of him having the best time. They kept in touch throughout the entire week, which was reassuring and gave me peace of mind while I was away on vacation. This was my first time using Rover and leaving my elderly fur baby with anyone new, and I truly felt safe knowing he was in their care. I’m so grateful for the love and attention they gave Leo and he got to socialize with the kids and pups 🥰🐾”
“We are very pleased with Terri caring for our two doxies. She was great communicating with us and sending photos. Her home is comfy, clean, and pet friendly. When we got there we knew our fur babies were in good hands. Terri’s dog Finn was so nice with our dogs. He really did well with them. We will definitely ask for her wonderful care again.”
“Taylor was very nice and accommodating. Maggie seemed to have a great time and played with her dog Piper which my dog needs socializing as she is only 7 months old and an only pet. I would recommend Taylor to anyone and I’m sure I’ll use her again if Maggie wasn’t too much trouble while there with Taylor 😜😜. She kept in touch everyday and sent videos of the dogs playing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“This is the second time my dogs stayed with Lindsey and we have nothing but great things to say! Always well taken care of with plenty of pictures to show! Thank you for being so sweet to my pups!!”
“Kenny and Olga were fantastic! They had great communication, were super friendly and have a lovely, clean, safe home. I felt like Buster was very well taken care of. I would highly recommend and will be using them again in the future 😊”
“Kim was absolutely wonderful to our dog Henry! We highly recommend Kim & family. She sent us pics of our dog everyday. Henry also enjoyed playing with her dog Lola. So thankful for Kim!”
“Sofia was an absolute godsend. She's incredibly dependable, professional and kind. And it's a bonus that she's a vet tech. I had never left my dog with a stranger before, so I was nervous about leaving her for a weekend. But Sofia was so communicative and responsive that my anxiety quickly vanished. I will 100% user her again.”
“Cheryl was great! 5 stars. I could tell immediately that she would really care about Lola and she did. She was a great communicator and a joy to work with –we’ll definitely ask her again.”
“Krystal is an amazing, caring, and attentive dog sitter. She took such great care of our dog while we were on vacation to Gulf shores. Our dog has a lot of anxiety when we leave her and when we dropped her off, I could tell she felt more at ease with Krystal and also got along very well with her dog. Krystal sent us updates and photos the whole time we were away which we loved! It was wonderful not having to worry about our dog while we were away as we knew she was in such great care with Krystal. I highly recommend Krystal!”

FAQs for Boarding - Summerdale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 390 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.
