“Overall great experience!! Damacia was amazing I know for a fact that my pup was in great care. Communication was on point and I loved receiving photo updates while on vacation. I would definitely book again!”
“Laura took excellent of Gemma while I was out of town and sent daily reviews with pics and videos. I felt very confident she was well cared for and she dealt with Gemma’s fear of storms very well. I can’t recommend her highly enough! Spoil your fur baby and let them stay with Laura!”
“Dawn was so sweet taking care of my puppy! It was my first time leaving him for an extended period of time and Dawn made the whole experience completely stress free! I got pictures and updates 3 times a day and it was evident that Willie was having a great time :) I can’t recommend Dawn highly enough!”
About: I have had at least one dog all of my life. Often times more than one. Currently living with just one Lab who would love a visitor/playmate. I foster emergency overnights on rescue transports. I have been a caregiver for dogs of all ages and kinds; puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with separation anxiety. I have grandcats I house sit for and have also taken care of chickens. I work from home with tons of flexibility. I have one adult child at home in graduate school, they have a health condition which keeps them home most days too, so your pet is never short of human companionship. I live in a great neighborhood for walks on a leash. I provide dog sitting in a one story home with a large, wooded fenced yard in central Richmond neighborhood. Great for dogs of all ages and abilities. I live with one Lab that's a large couch potato. He also likes his human to sit outside with him rather than be out there all by himself. So we spend lots of time outside together. Pets are permitted on furniture and the bed, whatever makes them feel at home. I do have a large dog crate that can be set up if needed, but only if requested as it will put your pet at ease. The most important factor is making sure your pet feels comfortable, keeping their routines and habits to lessen the stress of a new place.
“Moose always loves staying with Michelle and her sweet pup, Milo! He gets excited when he recognizes where we are and I always know Moose is in great hands!”
“Doris was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my fur baby, and it was clear he adored her. She is kind, attentive, thorough, and very professional. She kept me updated throughout my time away, which gave me so much peace of mind. I will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“When our dogs are with Laura and DJ, we know they are be taken care of like true members of their family. We especially appreciate the special care they give to our elderly dog. It is not common to find a home where an older dog can go and to feel at ease with it.”
“Julie is a perfect pet sitter. She shared questions to help me explain all about my little dolly. She shared daily reports and pictures while my dolly was there. When I met her and Eric at our home visit, I felt immediately comfortable and knew she would do a terrific job taking care of my baby and she did. I'm looking forward to setting up another stay when I go away this spring.”
“We send our pup to Cindy whenever we travel and he always receives the best care! He gets excited when we pull up to her house and comes home tired from all the playing he gets up to!”
“Matt was an amazing Rover find. He was very quick with communication, and answered all the questions I had. He also allowed for a meet and greet prior to booking, and his home is truly set up for the pups to be comfortable. During my Bella’s stay he provided both pictures and updates every day which put my mind at ease while I was on vacation. I was nervous about leaving her with a stranger, but thought this was better than traditional boarding. And I am very happy I made this decision. I highly recommend Matt based on my experience.”
“Wonderful experience. Emily and Abi took such good care of our CheChe! Communication was excellent and they made sure she had everything she needed to be healthy, happy and comfortable during her week-long stay.”
“I think Susie had a good time with Pamela and Paul. We went out of town a couple of days and they took care of her. Susie is 14, moving a little slowly and hard of hearing. They had to carry her up and down steps to the backyard since Susie hurt her back a few years ago. We will use them again. We felt good about Susie staying with Pamela and Paul.”
“I am thrilled to give Sheri a 5-star review for taking care of my pet, Happy, during boarding! Sheri went above and beyond to ensure Happy's comfort and happiness. I was particularly impressed with the regular updates she sent, complete with photos, to keep me informed and at ease. Her dedication, attention to detail, and love for animals truly shine through. I am so grateful to have found such a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Sheri, for taking such wonderful care of Happy! I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking top-notch pet care.”
“Hilary did a great job with Miles! She is responsive, flexible, and genuinely cares about dogs. Miles can be a handful, at times, but she handled him like a pro. Don't hesitate to reach out to her! ”
“Coco had a wonderful weekend with Elizabeth! She kept me updated on what Coco was doing and sent pictures daily. I would absolutely rebook with Elizabeth in the future!”
“Amanda was absolutely incredible. She was super communicative throughout our dog's entire stay. We loved all the updates and pictures. We could tell our dog was being loved and cared for, which put us at ease while we were out of town. Would 100% recommend Amanda.”
“Amy is so attentive to PJ! She bakes him little treats, makes him get out of bed, and really gets him moving! I always notice he's a little more wiped out after I pick him up, which is a good thing! We love Amy!”
“Nathan did a phenomenal job with our dog Moose. He was attentive, patient, and met us for a meet and greet which helped out a ton. He was very easy to work with, flexible, and thorough. We would definitely book a stay with Nathan again.”
“Cassandre was fabulous! She welcomed my Leo with open arms and treated him like family ❤️ I received pictures and updates daily! Which was wonderful! I knew Leo was in good hands while I was on vacation! She put my mind at ease! I would highly recommend Cassandre with your furry family member ?❤️”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bon Air
Damacia has watched our French bulldog many times. We just went on a seven day cruise and when Amaya came to pick up our girl Maude she was so excited. She bounded out to the car eager to go see her friends. Maude came home happy and well taken care of.Damacia is always flexible with drop off and pick up times and is truly a dog whisperer. Highly recommend!!
Linsen & Gr. are my hands down favorite doggie sitters. They are communicative, send amazing pics (better than anything I can take), have a fabulous yard and treat my dogs like an auntie and uncle. They book quick…so you got to plan ahead. They deserve every dollar and every tip! Will always pick first.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Bon Air home-away-from-home, 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 Bon Air.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Bon Air 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 , 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 .
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.
