“John was an amazing sitter for our golden while we were away on an international trip for a week. He sent tons of photos of Kobe on his numerous walks and trips to the dog park. We will definitely book with John again!”
“This is our second time having our dog stay with Megha and Irene, and we couldn’t be happier. We received plenty of photos and updates, which really put us at ease. In every photo, it’s clear our dog is getting lots of love and care from the whole family. We feel very comfortable leaving our dog with them and will definitely book again.”
“We've had various dog sitters and left our pup at a kennel several times. Sidnei is, by far, the best option. She was attentive to our dog, patient when he growled at her sweet dog Rio and tried to eat his food 😬, and very communicative with us. She sent lots of pictures and replied right away via text. We will definitely be requesting her again!”
“Matthew took great care of our dog! He regularly sent pictures and our pup came home exhausted from all the yard/park play. Will definitely book again with him next time we go away.”
“Thank you so much for taking such good care of our fur babies! They came back happy and healthy and looked like they had a lot of fun with the other pups in the photos! :)”
“Exceeded my expectations! This dynamic duo is truly a dream team. They took very good care of my Tyson since the meet and greet! They are very communicative and will send you as little or as many updates as you can take. This was my first time away from my baby and it’s warming to find out I was the one with separation anxiety while he had a friend and a safe space to be a dog! Will DEFINITELY be using there awesome services again!”
“Nala enjoyed her stay with Juer and Jacob! They provided plenty of video and pictures to ensure that we knew Nala was in a safe and loving environment. Nala was taken on many walks, and they played with her often. We would 100% recommend them!”
“Alyce and her family are the best dog sitters in the world they love my pup like she’s their own. I’m so lucky to have found her. You would be lucky to have her sit for you and your pup!”
“Amazing care. She sent pictures of my dog everyday. She even let me extend last minute which was appreciated. He had an amazing time with her and I will be rebooking with her. Thank you again.”
“Kelly did such a great job hosting Buggy! Buggy wasn’t feeling the best and had trouble eating but Kelly did an excellent job and gave me regular updates and photos so I knew she was in good hands.”
“Danyelle was great! We organized a meetup with her dog at our house, since it was raining when we wanted to meet at the dog park. She was very flexible and Sally had a great time staying with her! Thanks, Danyelle!”
“Mary went above and and beyond for my Vishaad. She sent updates of their activities and pictures as well. I felt very comfortable with her looking over my pup and would love to have her sit Vishaad again. Mary ensure Vishaad had ample attention and activities throughout the day. Thank you”
“We lost our previous Rover when they moved and weren’t sure we could replace the love and care they gave our dog. We were wrong. Miguelina and her family we’re wonderful. Good communication, photos, and lots of love for our dog.”
“Francise is the absolute best all around: communication, photos, flexibility, and most importantly, the best care for Monty, who loves her. She can handle his reactive leash walking too, which gives me peace of mind. This is the second time we’ve used her and will do so again!”
“Jordyn was everything we wanted in a sitter! Chance was socialized and engaged from start to finish. Jordyn sent us photos daily, which was so helpful alongside my anxiety. My boy was spoiled rotten! I will always recommend her for anyone on Rover.”
“Tucker loves his time with Temisha and Max! Temisha sends a lot of pictures and videos and Tucker always has a big smile! I never worry about him when he’s with Temisha.”
“Staying with Elizabeth was a wonderful experience for us and our pups. She is responsive, friendly, and chill—what our pups needed. A great experience overall.”
“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”
“Kat and Brian are always terrific! They are flexible with their schedule if changes need to be made and they take such good care of our Weezy. She always comes home happy!”

Javier is conscientious and is considerate of our dogs' needs. Poppy and Olivia responded positively to Javier immediately. They were relaxed and made themselves at home. Javier is sincerely a dog lover. We are so pleased with the way our dogs were taken care of and will use Javier in the future. We recommend Javier as a dog sitter without reservation. Linda and Mike
Zosha and his partner took such great care of Jefe! We booked last minute and they were so accommodating and sweet about the whole thing. Their communication was amazing the entire time, and I could tell Jefe was in really loving and caring hands. We’d absolutely love to book with them again in the future. I’d definitely recommend them to all fur parents!
Sandika and her husband did a fantastic job watching Dash! They shared tons of photos, updates, and videos every day, and kept him so stimulated with lots of walks, fetch, and playtime with neighborhood dogs. They were flexible and responsive, will absolutely use them again!
Jennifer is amazing and gave our two pups the most loving care during their stay! She is responsible and responsive and kept in constant communication with us through messages and photos. She also stayed on top of their medications and spoiled our dogs with lots of attention, walks, and play time. They bonded with her quickly and were comfortable in her home right away, even one of our dogs who has mild separation anxiety issues. We are super happy with the boarding experience and will definitely use her again in the future! Thanks!!!
Ayme is an amazing pet sitter! My rescue dog is very skittish around new people but she took the time to help him become comfortable with her and now he loves her! She has sat for him at my house and he has boarded at her house. In addition to being great with dogs, she is trustworthy and reliable.
Anmei was an exceptional rover who seemed to care for Miley and give her the attention she needed. I received updates and pictures throughout the stay to make sure she got her exercise and was kept safe and happy. Miley was also accompanied by her partner and her dog which ensured additional care and activities. Neighbor was also very peaceful and dog-friendly. I highly recommend Anmei to anyone looking for a sitter in the area!
Sadie had a great time with Asia and the other dogs! Sadie is a black Newfie with a heavy coat who easily overheats. With the weather hitting almost 100 degrees multiple days in a row, I felt at ease leaving her with Asia who has a husky herself and really understands how to keep a big fluffy dog cool! Asia has a big backyard that is mostly shaded, keeps her A/C on indoors and has multiple fans already set up for the dogs to plop down in front of to further cool off. There were a couple other large double-coat dogs there as well so Sadie was in good company. I enjoyed the daily picture updates from Asia and she was very easy to communicate with for the meet & greet and general scheduling. We’ll be using Asia again in a few weeks when we leave for a longer trip. Thank you!!
BLUF: Book in confidence. Helena and Nathan were great. Their comms were very clear and timely, they definitely know what they are doing in terms of thinking forward about how to give your dog the best experience and to give you peace of mind while they are being boarded there. Both their home and their yard are well-tended - no hazards for dogs like wires, broken boards, etc. They were also flexible in terms of dropoff/pickup times, as well as accommodating reasonable requests for toys, treats, and food options. They also allowed a friend of mine and their dog (who recommended me to Helena and Nathan) to stop by for a short playdate. Great experience and will book again!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Annandale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
There are 7,443 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Annandale. About 90% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
