This was our first time ever using a sitter, and Carlos put us at ease right off the bat during the initial meeting. He was receptive to our concerns (our dog is 12), and let us know that our dog was in good hands. During our dog’s 4-day stay with Carlos, we got numerous updates during each day with pictures and summaries. Our dog looked so happy to be with Carlos and Sasha! Carlos was also willing to accommodate a late pickup on the final day due to flight issues, which we really appreciated. He even wrote us a very sweet and heartfelt message thanking us for entrusting our dog to his care. I can’t recommend Carlos enough, and we will definitely be back if we need a sitter in the future.

Molly was very well cared for and because of the many pictures I received I saw how she was pampered. She is a very happy little dog. If/when I need boarding for Molly I will definitely request Hyunbang P.

We had a wonderful experience with Jona. She is kind, patient, and took the time to truly understand our dogs' needs and routine. Communication was excellent, with regular updates and photos that gave us real peace of mind. Jona is incredibly attentive, not just to our dog, but to all the dogs in her care, and creates a warm, comfortable environment where pets feel at home. We would happily book with Jona again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.

Vincent is a wonderful pet sitter! His home and his dogs are warm and welcoming - and my dog, Bubbles, absolutely LOVED running around in his fenced in backyard. Vincent sent regular updates during Bubbles' stay which put my mind at ease as this was Bubbles first stay away from home since we adopted him. I would highly recommend his services. In fact, I've already booked Vincent again to watch Bubbles during an upcoming trip.

We left our senior (15 yrs), dog in Michelle's care for a weekend, and couldn't have asked for a better environment, and family. Michelle was kind, extremely responsive (key criteria for us), and kept us updated throughout the weekend. We felt content knowing our dog was comfortable, and having fun with her new friends at Michelle's. Keep up the great work, Michelle!

Another great stay with Kim! Waldo spent a week with her and her family and had a blast. It was a warm week weather wise and she made sure to walk him earlier in the day and later to avoid the hottest times. She provided daily updates and photos and even gave him his puzzle toy daily to help with mental stimulation. I appreciate how well she took care of Waldo while we were gone. Highly recommend her and plan to continue to use her services in the future!

Chris was great with our dogs. Our younger one Rumi was spending her first time away from us or family. By the end of the stay she was all pals with Chris and even giving him kisses. Our older one Meru is picky with her food and Chris was nice enough to send us updates on her eating schedules to put our minds at ease. Chris has a very calm way with the dogs and helped our dogs with their anxiety. He was prompt with updates every day. Our dogs love to play fetch and run around and Chris was great in giving them that exercise. Thanks Chris ! We would definitely board our dogs again in the future.

Vanessa is hands down the best pet sitter. I had a last minute cancelation and she was so willing to watch my pups during a holiday even. She treats my dogs like her own and makes a dedicated effort to make the dogs feel at home. I moved out of state and I still thought of her first after my first sitter (closer to my area) fell through. Her and her family are so sweet and I always appreciate her love and care for my pups!

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.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Bristow

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Bristow on Rover is $48.15 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 7,308 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Bristow. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

94% of Bristow sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Bristow landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Bristow 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 Bristow.

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.

You and your Bristow 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.
