“Laurie and Rich were so kind and caring for our little Frodo. From their photos, he was clearly comfortable in their home and yard. They kept us updated with his adjustment as it was his first time with them. When they expressed concern when he did not eat his dinner, we assured them that he does skip meals. We were lucky to find them available for our mini vacation. Thank you, Laurie and Richard”

“Behice and Mert were absolutely perfect for Jojo. First of all they are the sweetest people. Very kind and gentle. They were previous cat owners themselves, which is a huge plus. Their house was clean and organized which my cat loved. Before boarding they asked lots of questions to ensure that they cared for my little fur baby exactly as needed. I appreciated that very much. They made sure to follow all the instructions and sent daily pictures and videos. Jojo immediately felt comfortable in their home as soon as we brought her there, she was playing and cuddling by day 2. Jojo had a great time at Behice/Mert’s place and can’t wait to come back for the next time. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable, kind, cat experienced sitter.”

“Oh my goodness - Kattia is the best sitter we’ve ever had! Between Kattia, her daughter, and friend our pup Oreo had way more attention and care than I even expected. They were so loving and energetic. Even when we dropped her off Oreo was already smiling and she never does that! They took her on lots of walks and car rides, fed her well, cuddled her up and became best friends. She sent lots of updates and pics to show how happy she was as they spoiled her. I will definitely be booking them again! Amazing service!”

About: With over 10 years of dog sitting experience, I have provided dependable, compassionate care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My experience includes feeding, walking, administering basic medications, maintaining routines, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I take pride in creating a loving and stress-free environment where every dog receives personalized attention, exercise, and care as if they were my own. My goal has always been to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are in trusted hands. I currently work a full-time schedule; however, I am available to provide dog boarding services after work on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays beginning at 3:00 PM. I also have full availability on Wednesdays and Thursdays for boarding, overnight care, walks, and personalized attention. I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every dog in my care while ensuring pet owners have peace of mind during their time away. I have a friendly and playful toy poodle who enjoys being around and interacting with other animals, helping create a welcoming and comfortable environment for pets in my care. For larger dogs, my apartment complex features a spacious dog park where they can safely exercise, play, and burn off energy. I provide attentive care that includes daily walks, scheduled feedings, playtime, and baths if needed. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being cared for like family.

Carmen and her family were amazing dog sitters for our dog while we were gone for almost two weeks for our wedding and honeymoon. With so much going on, it gave us so much comfort and joy to know that our dog was so well taken care of. Our dog has anxiety and reactivity issues (towards other dogs) so he can sometimes be a handful to take care of, but Carmen and her family gave us so much confidence that he was well taken care of, felt safe, and was having fun while we were gone. We will definitely consider rebooking in the future!

Janell and Mykel were lovely! My kitties warmed up to them very quickly, played with them, and snuggled on all of their perches (which, as any cat parents knows, is a sign of a great caretaker). They also kept me equipped with cute pics and updates on how they were doing. Will definitely utilize their care in the future! Thanks Janell and Mykel!

Seyedkamyar truly saved the day! I had a last-minute need to board my boxer, Mae-Mae, due to an appointment. I reached out to over 20 dog sitters, and everyone either declined or never responded—until Seyedkamyar came through! He went above and beyond by taking the time to do an informal meet-and-greet to make sure Mae-Mae was comfortable with him before I left her in his care. He treated her like his own and sent frequent updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. I can’t thank Seyedkamyar enough for being so accommodating, patient, and caring, especially on such short notice. I highly recommend him and would absolutely trust him with Mae-Mae again. Thanks again, Seyedkamyar! 🐾❤️

Sissi was the absolute best dog foster mom for my two dogs. She had no problem with their special home made food and they had such a good time playing in her back yard. Even more importantly, she loved on them and gave them so much attention! I could tell how happy they were in all the wonderful photos and videos she provided. She loved my dogs like they were her own and am so glad to have found a loving and caring dog sitter that I can use for when I need to travel or even doggy daycare. Fozzie and Jerry send their love!!

Once again, my cat, Cleo, had a wonderful stay with Yan! When I came to pick her up, she let me hold her for a bit to say hi, then jumped out of my arms and acted like she wanted to stay there. It is such a comfort knowing she feels happy, safe and comfortable. Yan kept me updated on Cleo’s behaviors and activities and also sent the cutest pictures and videos. I can’t recommend her enough! I’ll definitely be booking with her again (and again and again)!

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Annandale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Annandale is $38 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 7,660 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Annandale. About 91% of Annandale sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
