“Alyson always takes great care of Aerys. She is very communicative and quick to respond. I would recommend her to anyone. She will care for your pet, like it's her own.”
“I couldn’t be happier about his care for my mutt! She loves him like a second family and knows when we arrive at her ‘other’ home. She loves his dogs and his couch…. Ken is a great guy and knows dogs!”
“There are no words to even begin to describe how much care Leigha puts into making Jackson feel at home and loved! It's always reassuring when I do have to leave Jackson to know he's in great hands!!! Thank you so much for taking amazing care of my baby boy!”
“They are so great, they care for our boys like their own. They understand their different personalities and cater to them. We were running out of town and forgot a couple things but they were so accommodating. The boys always come back healthy and well care for. We are already booking our next trip out of town and will use them again :)”
“Gracie is a great dog sitter, she communicates well and timely, clearly loves animals, and provided a safe and loving home for my dog. Attie (my dog) had a great time fetching balls and playing with her dog toys. Gracie even sent a couple of balls home with her. I would highly recommend Gracie, and would not hesitate to ask her to dog sit again.”
About: I have been an animal lover since I was a little boy. I have had multiple dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, hamsters, and bearded dragons. Friends and relatives have relied on me and continue to rely on me to feed, look after and play with their pets when they are away. I will love your pets as my own while in my care. I have many years of experience in potty training puppies, crate training dogs of all ages, custom building dog houses for my own pets, Caring for puppies and kittens all the way up through senior years. If you book with me, you can be assured and rest easy with updates about your babies throughout the day. I will also send pictures to ease you mind. I'm always available for a meet and greet session before booking. We can discuss any special needs, requirements or anything else that you or I need to know about your pet during that time while I get to know you and your pet. I am usually available for boarding any time and any day of the week. I prefer drop off and pickups to be scheduled in afternoons after 5pm or anytime on the weekends. I am available for doggy day care most weekends (Saturday & Sunday). I am available for dog walks on most weekday afternoons after 6pm M-F and anytime on the weekends. I will certainly work with you on your scheduling needs! I have a big fenced in back yard and a big play room ready to entertain your pets. I have ring camera security around my home. I can provide a crate for them to sleep in if needed. Your pets will be safe and looked after with love and affection their whole stay! I will send you updates and pictures of your pet during my time with them!
“Carola is a wonderful pet sitter & always takes great care of our Susie! Susie is very fond of Carola & Carola keeps me posted with pics & texts. We wouldn’t consider using any other sitter 😊”
“Do you want your pets to feel so at home and comfortable that they are upset when they leave? Mark's house is the place to be! Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mark helped us on short notice and was able to provide us peace and reassurance that our babies were cared for! Mark kept our male and female German Shepherds, and they had an absolute blast. Mark sent us multiple photos and videos and kept us very up-to-date on what they were doing throughout their visit. He asked questions about their personalities and needs that showcased his care and attention to detail. With his knowledge and experience with German Shepherds, it really shined in the care he provided them! I would definitely recommend Mark, and especially recommend Mark to people with German Shepherds or working line dogs! We and our babies would love to use Mark again!”
“Kelley has been absolutely amazing with my dogs! Thank you for all the photos and FaceTimes! Without a doubt, I would use your services again. Thank you for taking such great care of Aubri and Remi! 💛”
“Amanda did a wonderful job! Very friendly. Took great care of our two dogs. And provided an update every day we were gone, sometimes including photos. Will definitely use her again.”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with a Dog Sitter and it went amazing! If I ever go on a long vacation again, I would rebook with Jacades! Communication was excellent, and she constantly kept us updated. I would 110% recommend to anyone looking for a Dog Sitter.”
“Lilly and her family were just what my 2 pups needed for our 2 day trip. She was respectful of our requests (no pups on furniture), and offered the right amount and frequency of communication while we were away to assure us our kiddos were behaving, safe, and happy. Her small female dog was also seemingly acclimated to having 'guests'. Would definitely recommend.”
“Kourtney went above and beyond for our Lady. Lady lost a tooth while she was with her and she put the tooth in a baggie for us to keep and gave her a tooth fairy gift. She was so good with Lady. She sent pictures and updates to us daily and our Lady was a happy girl when we picked her up. Thank you so much Kourtney!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and I’ve always had a special place in my heart for them! I’ve had everything from Huskies to Pekingese. I work from home so I have plenty of flexibility as well as plenty of time to play, provide attention and snuggle with your pup! Working remotely allows me for flexibility in my home, where the pups have free range. I stay mostly in the main level of my townhome and have a fenced balcony as well as tons of grassy areas for the pups to go and play on
About: I have taken care of dogs & cats since I was a child. I’m 30 years old, & I work in Dentistry Monday-Thursday 8-6, so I will be the only person in my home that can look after your animals anytime Friday-Sunday! I work full time in a Dental office Monday thru Thursday 8am to 6pm, so I would be available after 6pm until the next morning. I’m available anytime Friday thru Sunday. I have leashes in our yard. It is a 2 year old home & I have not saved up for a fence yet. I have 2 friendly male dogs. I have cats in our home as well, so if your animal doesn’t do well with other animals I have a large crate in our garage it can sleep in, & I can keep our animals separate.
“Erica was great. She kept our two large breeds for a weekend and kept us up to date on how things were going and sent pics! Would definitely recommend and use again!”
“Absolutely the best pet sitter! She took amazing care of our fur baby and treated them like family. We received updates, photos, and had complete peace of mind while we were away. She is kind, reliable, and truly loves animals. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again. Thank you so much!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Abingdon
Both stays with Tara the past month have been great! She really loves dogs and stays with them to be sure they don't get lonely. She's very good about sending pictures and video as well. Our little dog loved the walks and playing n the backyard with a few other small dogs. He was happy and exhausted when he got home!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Abingdon on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 59 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Abingdon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Abingdon 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 Abingdon.
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 Abingdon 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 VA 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.
