“Rachel was amazing! She sent us pictures and updates during stay and let us know of any issues our pup was having. My sweet girl has food allergies and Rachel reached out to let us know plus did what she could to help. Will 100% be using her again in the future.”
“Wow she was great! She was very accommodating for a last minute booking! She allowed me to do a meet and greet and she was very flexible. She sent me pictures of Bailey which made me very happy to see he was well taken care of! From that first visit, I have already booked her for two additional times and will continue to book her for as many as I can! She is awesome and I’m so happy I found her!”
“Wade and Morgan are AMAZING!! This was the longest I have ever left my pup so I was very nervous about being away from him but they made the entire experience effortless. They sent me picture updates every single day if not twice a day! My dog seemed to not want to leave their house and I could tell that he was very happy and very very well taken care of. I would recommend them to anyone who asks and I will definitely be booking with them again in the future! Thank you so so much Wade and Morgan I appreciate you guys more than you know!”

Would book again if ever needed.”

And, Westyn's dog, Oden, is a fluffy sweetheart who is gentle and agreeable.”

I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your furry (or scaly!) family members. I’m available for drop-in visits/boarding morning, afternoon, or evening, depending on what works best for your schedule. Whether it’s having a sleep over with me, a potty break, walk, playtime, or some cozy companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m available for drop-in visits and boarding morning, afternoon, or evening, depending on what works best for your schedule.

“All I can say is that I am infinitely grateful that Iris took care of our little Toby as if he were her own; the warmth, the way she treated him, and above all the love that she and her family gave him—it’s more than 5 stars.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Deby was amazing with our dog Hobie! She sent us videos and pictures daily of our guy enjoying his weekend with her. Her niece was so sweet with Hobie and was an amazing playmate for our pup - we are so glad he was able to get playtime and cuddles in with kids. He loves it and I know he will miss her! I appreciate Deby’s thoroughness and care! We will absolutely be reaching out to Deby to care for our pup in the future!”
“Kyler went above and beyond to make me (and Cooper!) comfortable with his week-long stay! As a dachshund owner herself, I felt confident that she knew all the quirks and intricacies of caring for him, and it was great for him to be around other doxies throughout the week. Kyler sent daily updates and pictures — it’s always a relief to see your pup doing well and settling in — and she was super responsive regarding the pickup and drop off times. To have someone you know you can trust with your dog is invaluable — Kyler is our go-to sitter moving forward!”

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.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in West Jefferson can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their West Jefferson 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 West Jefferson.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in West Jefferson. On Rover:

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your West Jefferson 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
