“This was a great day for my baby! This was her first day away from after not even having her a week. I really appreciated the pictures and messages when I was at work. Made me feel more at ease.”
“Tiffany was an absolute delight to book with!! From the very beginning, she was very prompt in her responses and answered any questions that I had. I am a newer dog mom, so she put me at ease due to her kindness and professionalism. She was very flexible with drop-off/pickup times, which I know can be tough for most. That was a huge plus! She also communicated throughout the day with updates and cute photos of my fur baby so I knew he was safe and well taken care of. If I could, I would give her 10/5 stars! I definitely plan to book with her again in the near future! Thanks again Tiffany!”
“Audree is amazing!! The second my dog sees Audree, he’s running out of the car in excitement. Seeing his reaction always calms me down because I know he’s being taken care of, and loved just as we would at home :) she’s super flexible and sends pictures/videos throughout his stay. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“My dog Diego had never been in doggie daycare before and I was nervous to leave him. Also being a puppy, I felt bad knowing he doesn't always know his strength and when to go out. He was evidently a good dog, and I didn't have to come get him early. I highly recommend Eldeen!”
“Linda and family took great care of Layla. She stresses easily in her old age but not at all stressed with them. They communicated with me several times during her stay and even sent pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Zorra and Theodore were SOOOOOO happy with their stay with Jorge's family! We received several pictures. We appreciated how they made our dog care request work out with their busy schedule! Next time we travel to Stafford, we will definitely request Jorge's family.”
About: Unfortunately, working and moving a lot. I cannot give the best life to my dog and cat anymore. I had to leave them with my brother but I would love to give some support to pet owners who are busy due to work and life. Monday to Friday after 6 pm. Weekends and holidays all day long. I love going for walks, feed them, or I have them over the weekend. I would love to give a house and take care of pets in my apartment. I live by myself, but I work a 9-5 job.
“Laurie is great! She really cares for the dogs and it shows. She sent lots of pictures and Maggie had a wonderful time. Maggie is looking forward to her next daycare visit.”
“Lindsey was SO great with Teddy. Teddy came home tired and happy! The pictures she sent to us were adorable and showed how much fun he had. Lindsey was very communicative and easy to work with.”
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 5 years old. Friends and Family have always told me I should start working with dogs a lot more. So I am starting this and one day willing to have my own business working with dogs. All I do is take care of dogs! I have a very open schedule. Monday-Friday 8AM-6:30PM Saturdays 11:30AM-8PM Sundays 9AM-7:30PM If I an in your home I will treat the pup and home as my own. I will do my very best to make sure everyone is comfortable. I will send pictures and updates as often as you would like! It is import to me that you trust me not only with your fur baby but in your home as well!
“Aiden and her wonderful family have been fantastic sitters! BELLA is usually very skittish about new places but she has been very excited to go to doggy day care. Highly recommended!”
“Connie was wonderful! She was our first experience with Rover and we would 100% use it again and 110% leave our pup with her again. Alfie can get separation anxiety, but we could see him opening up and enjoying himself in the photos Connie sent throughout the day.”

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals, which inspired me to begin fostering for my local animal shelter in 2025. Caring for these pets has been such a rewarding experience and has now led me to Rover. I would be delighted to provide your dog with loving care—whether for the day or overnight! I work from home all week and have the time, love and space to give your pet top notch care! Potty breaks in our fenced in yard are frequent and so are treats! I have a fenced in yard and 1 friendly German shepherd/hound mix. She has many dog friends and is great with big and small visitors. Dogs have free range of the house and can be crated, if needed.
“Ligia is by far the best doggy sitter in the world! I had never left my fur baby with anybody else before but Ligia reassured me that he would have a great day and he sure did! Every time I leave Harley at her house, I get pictures of him playing with other dogs and constant updates on how he’s doing. Ligia has helped Harley be able to socialize with other dogs and the best part is that I know he has a fantastic time with her. He’s always super excited to go to her house and play with his best friend, Ducky. I am so happy and blessed that I found Ligia! I absolutely recommend her and her services. Harley and I couldn’t be happier!!”

Alexa was great with Scout our black Labrador, super easy to talk to and deal with, we got several pictures throughout the day showing Scout playing and having fun. Highly recommend. She was able to accommodate last minute for us as we were traveling from out of town which was a huge help!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Aquia Harbour commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,900 sitters in Aquia Harbour, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
