“Walter and his family continue to take amazing care of our puppy. When leaving today, she whimpered - that’s a sign of a happy girl! We are so happy to have found this loving family. Thank you again for all that you do to make Harper feel right at home. We look forward to working with you again soon!”
“Erin was an incredible host for our dog, Coco!!! She went above and beyond in so many ways to make Coco feel at home, and kept me updated with photos and texts all along the way. While we were away we felt like Coco was having her own amazing vacation with all the walks, cuddles and special care Erin and her family gave her. Now they feel like her adopted family and we won’t hesitate to leave our dog with Erin again. Best Rover experience ever!”
“Sarah was wonderful with Murphy and Mazi. She kept me updated with pictures, handled their medications carefully, and clearly treated them like part of the family. I really appreciated how flexible and accommodating she was with my schedule, including extending their stay by an extra day when my plans changed. I would absolutely trust Sarah with them again.”
“Our Yorkies were very well taken care over the two weeks we were away on vacation. Linda was kept busy with medication administration, special food needs and even a trip to the vet! We couldn't have chosen a better sitter, and she gets a five star review from the entire family.”
“Thank you so much for looking after him like family! He came back super happy. I genuinely appreciated the constant feedback. And Coco wasn’t sad when I picked him up! We will be back again! Can’t be more grateful!”
“Leslie was wonderful! We rarely leave our dog with anyone, so we were nervous about going on our trip. Leslie instantly put us at ease. She sent detailed updates every day, including videos, pictures, and a recap of Teddy’s day. Teddy had a fantastic time! You can easily see how dedicated Leslie is and how much she truly loves dogs. We felt completely comfortable knowing Teddy was in such caring hands. We will certainly be booking with Leslie again!”
“Chris watched my dog, Francine while I was away and I can’t recommend him enough. He and his mom treated her like she was their own and provided daily updates and photos throughout her stay. It was a great experience and the most comfortable I’ve felt leaving my dog with someone else. If you need a trustworthy pet sitter, your dog will be in great hands with Chris.”
“Min & Matthew were great! My pup has some anxiety problems. They were very patient with her and were able to settle her down without using the medication I sent just in case she needed it. I loved all the pictures and videos. They gave our dog lots of love and snuggles. Will absolutely will be using them again in the future.”
About: I cared for my family dog for 12 years until she passed, as well as cared for my family and friends furry animals over the years. I’m currently working full time. During the week, I can be available before 8:00am, afternoons, and after 4:30pm Monday through Friday. Weekend schedule is flexible. I’ll make sure they are safe at all times, and well taken care of. Take them on walks, feed them if needed, and play of course!
“Abby did a wonderful job watching our dog! We had a meet and greet the week prior that went great, her two dogs are sweet and playful and got along with ours well! I’m not sure our dog wanted to come home she was so happy there!!”
“Can't say enough great things about Lauren and her family! She's our go-to. So caring and kind, she not only takes exceptional care of our dog, but also updates us with daily photos that keep us informed and make us feel like a part of the stay.”
“Yogi enjoyed his stay. I like that there are options. Dogs can stay in the house. But if they are more comfortable outside, she has a deck with access to a fenced in grass area. Good communication. No problems.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Sudha watching Coco for 10 days! Sudha sent us multiple photos and videos twice a day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was always easy to communicate with and kept us updated throughout his stay. Coco came home looking clean and well cared for, and he got along really well with her pup, Thor! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter. We’d happily book with her again! ❤️”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Briggs
We went on vacation and this was the 1st time Sir Baxter was going to be away from us for such a long period of time. Baxter stayed with Katherine for 6 days and he can be a handful (picky eater, attention seeking, etc). Katherine proposed a meet and greet which we gladly accepted as we were assessing a couple of different sitters. From the meet and greet on, we could tell Katherine was very experienced with caring for dogs, her yard is setup for them to have play time, and Baxter did not seem anxious when introduced to her two dogs. While we were away, she did share picks of Baxter and was responsive to questions as to how he was doing. We will likely check Katherine's availability and hopefully rebook with her next time we need a sitter.
This was my first time asking Sarah to watch my fur babe and she well-exceeded expectations! She kept me informed every day on how he was doing, his feeding schedule, his outdoor time (which he received a lot of! 🤗) our trip was a little last minute, so I am very grateful to have found her and thankful for her and her family taking such good care of him!
Katherine was great with our 2 year old corgi. She was accommodating to a last minute request, which I really appreciated. I felt confident our dog would enjoy her stay after seeing how well she handled the meet & greet. She has a large fenced in yard for dogs too. I look forward to using her services again!
Katherine is very conscience. She insisted on meeting the dogs before their stay. I was very impressed with this because it shows she cares about what she does. I haven’t left my dogs overnight with anyone in probably over 5 years so I was very anxious. She has a beautiful setting.

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.
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.
96% of sitters in Briggs can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Briggs 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 Briggs.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Briggs. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Briggs 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
