“Kendra is the best! Yasha loves her and Gizmo and lights up whenever I tell her she is going to see them. She is personable and treats my baby like her own!”
“Willow is completely at ease with Amanda. Amanda does a fantastic job keeping me informed about Willow’s health, activities, and interactions with their family. I have already rebooked. I have and will change plans if Amanda is not available.”
“Abby did a wonderful job taking care of my Sammy. She kept us informed of how he was doing. We could enjoy our trip knowing he was in good hands. He was healthy and happy when we picked him. I would highly recommend her”
“Lisa is amazing and took great care of my boy, Henry! She provided updates and photos while dog sitting and has a nice home with fully fenced backyard to accommodate any dog. Henry enjoyed his stay and we'll definitely look to work with her again for dog sitting needs.”
“Sure! Here’s a thoughtful review you can use: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amanda and Adam did an amazing job pet-sitting my dog over the weekend! They made sure she felt right at home, sending me daily updates and adorable pictures that gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear they truly cared for her, and I could tell she was happy and well taken care of. I really appreciate their reliability and kindness, and I will absolutely continue to use them in the future. Highly recommend!”
“We had an amazing experience boarding our dog with Deven and Tyreek from start to finish! They treated Riot just like their own; he was happy, comfortable and loved! Their communication was excellent, especially the frequent updates they sent with pictures and videos to show us how much fun Riot was having. We (Riot included) are grateful for the care they provided and would absolutely book them again in the future!!”
“Hands down every time I bring my pupper, he is so excited!!! I can tell they have a great connection with my boy and that makes us feel like he is safe. Thanks so much!!!”
“Candice is amazing!!! I don't have any human children and Daisy is my only Fur Baby so it's always extremely hard to leave her. Candice was so caring and welcoming, Daisy felt at ease almost immediately which provided a level of comfort and peace that I haven't experienced with any other sitter. The pictures and updates allowed me to further relax, especially considering how happy my baby looked. I highly recommend Candice and will definitely contact her first for all of my pet-sitting needs.”
“Riley had a great time with staying with Kourtney! I was sent updates and pictures, and returned home with a content pup. Thank you for taking such good care of my girl”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was very pleased with Melissa and the love her family gave my sweet little Louie. We booked an overnight boarding for 3 nights and her service and communication were next to none. I greatly appreciate her daily photo updates, as it secured not only myself but the fact my kids were just as pleased to know that their fur brother was in great hands . I’d definitely be willing to book her again and recommend her services to anyone looking for a compassionate caregiver!”
“I am more than pleased with the ❤️ and care DAMACIA provided for my 3 months puppy. I would recommend her and we will be going back. Was a little nervous at first, but she reassured me he would be fine even around other Fur Babies.”
“Star’ visit was just as great as the first time. All went perfectly smoothly and Star appeared to thoroughly enjoy her stay. I was at ease knowing she was being well taken care of.”
“Cindy has been the best sitter for my Ziggy. He loves going to her place. Soon as we arrive, he just runs inside. She sends me daily updates and pictures also. Anytime I’ve needed to extend, Cindy is always accommodating and I truly appreciate it. I can’t recommend her enough!!”
“Michelle always does a great job sitting my dog. I had a last minute trip planned and she was able to accommodate. I even had a delayed trip back home and she was very flexible which I appreciated.”
“Andrada was wonderful! She sent us daily pictures, videos and updates. She responded quickly and worked with our schedule. I will 100% recommend her. We will most definitely be returning in the near future. Kizzez will miss Molly and Zara ?!”
“Laura and her family do an excellent job with Nacho. I am comfortable leaving him in their care as I know they will treat him no different than as a member of their family. I'm sure he misses us, but he also looks forward to boarding at their house so I am not worried at all that he will be homesick.”
“Shannon was incredible! 12 outta 10 would recommend. It was the first time in two years I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in safe hands while I was away. She and her family took such good care of him and she sent me updates, photos, and videos every day. I was overjoyed to see how relaxed and happy he was (he legit seemed to be having his own little vacation!) So glad to have finally found a reliable caretaker who loves my pup as much as I do for when I’m out of town”
“First time using Rover but wanted to have more of a home feel for my puppies first time being boarded. Miranda was really nice and provided pics and videos of my puppy during his stay. Miranda will also be keeping Miles when I go on vacation in March for a longer period of time, but trust he will be in good hands.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Afton is $45

Of course! Here it is with Tracey spelled correctly: Writing Miss Tracey was absolutely wonderful with my Milo! 🐾❤️ She did such a fabulous job taking care of him over the weekend, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She is incredibly kind, thoughtful, considerate, and attentive, and you can tell how much she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. She always goes above and beyond to make sure Milo is happy, comfortable, and well cared for, and that means the world to me. I have complete peace of mind whenever he’s with her, which is priceless! I absolutely adore Miss Tracey, and she is without a doubt my go-to sitter for Milo. We are so lucky to have her! Thank you, Tracey, for always taking such amazing care of my boy. We appreciate you more than you know! 🐶💕
Kendra was amazing and consistent! We met prior to make sure my dog was comfortable before staying at her residence. Kendra made sure she was updated me with pictures and moments throughout the day. Her love for dogs is phenomenal! Book with Kendra you will not be disappointed! ❤️
Best pet sitter around. My pup absolutely loves going to see Airlea and I don’t have to worry about bit if he is being taken care of. She sends pictures and videos throughout the day so I can see how much fun my dog is having. Half the time he isn’t ready to leave and wants to stay with her lol. If you are looking for a wonderful sitter for your 4 legged family, she is the one!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Afton on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 784 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Afton. 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.
94% of Afton 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 Afton 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 Afton 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 Afton.
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 Afton 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.
