“Rhianna was the absolute best! Not only did she keep us updated continuously, she also gave my babies the amount of love and attention we all want from a sitter! From here on out Rhianna is my go to girl for my pet sitting needs! I hope she becomes yours too!”
“I asked Kristen as a last minute trip came up that I needed a sitter for. She responded quickly and said YES. It was a 10 day boarding and I do not have one complaint. I am so thankful for her. My dog was healthy and happy when I picked her up. I have another trip soon so I will ask for her.”
“This was the 1st time we've left Hero with anyone while we went out of town, but when we had our initial meet and greet with Christy, I felt comfortable leaving him. Christy sent us pictures and we laughed because he looked right at home. I definitely will be using Christy again and will be recommending her! Thank you Christy”
“Kennan and Kayleigh were great sitters for Copper while I was out of town. Copper suffers from severe anxiety especially during storms. Kennan was very patient with him and tried a variety of things to keep Copper calm. I was comforted knowing that he was in good hands while I was away.”
“Our dog stayed with Jessica just two nights but had a great time! We loved that she was able to play with other dogs in a nice, fenced area during her stay. We travel to the area twice a year and will definitely consider Jessica again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a teenager. My friends, neighbors, and my family would rely on me to check on them. I would play with them, feed them, walk them, and sometimes if they have injuries I would change them and keep an eye on them while they were in my care. I'm currently not working at this moment. Im available from 9-5 during the weekdays but on the weekends I can do a couple hours if needed. I prefer the weekdays to be at the client's house and the weekends can be at my house because I have my kiddos. They love animals like they run with them and play fetch as well.
“Grace was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!! I was under time restraints and needed some one to board my 2 young cats. Ot was last minute cause life happens and she worked with me 100%!!!!! This was my first time using this app and I will again!!! And I am only using Grace again too!!! Thank you for everything Grace!”
“Teresa is so pleasant. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our doggy was in good hands. I was happy to see the huge yard that the dogs could run and play. Definitely a 5 star sitter.”
“Angela is absolutely amazing. She goes above and beyond to care for your fur babies. Simba was well taken care of and enjoyed his 8 day stay. Will most definitely use Angela again in the future.”
“Wonderful!! Britteny and her family took great care of our great dane. I know she was treated like family while she was with them. Will definitely use her again to watch our babies!! ❤️”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was young. They always bring me joy! I have energy, love, and patience for each puppy:) I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time with your sweet fur baby! I’m available for boarding on weekends and walks in the middle of the week. I have a large outdoor pen with some yard but they are allowed indoors. I have two very sweet dogs to keep yours company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.
About: I have grown up around all kinds of dogs all of my life. Dogs who are scared of everyone, love everyone they all hold a special place in my heart. I have always wanted to do this ! I am a stay at home mom with two dogs of my own, so I really have a very open Monday-Friday Schedule and I am open to discussing weekends! I will treat them just like they are mine, and mine are spoiled to a core. All dogs are special and deserve to know they are loved.
“This was my first time boarding my Aussie, and I was honestly a bit nervous — but she did an amazing job reassuring me from the start. She made the whole process feel easy and stress-free, which I really appreciated. I was especially worried because she has three dogs, and my Aussie can get a little overwhelmed. But she handled introductions perfectly — slow, one at a time — and my dog adjusted way better than I expected. Fast forward to pickup time… I think my dog may have forgotten who I am Not only was she completely comfortable, but she had already decided that the husband was her human now (and she normally reserves that level of love for my own husband). At one point, he was petting one of his own dogs, and mine started whining like, “Excuse me?? That’s MY attention.” The jealousy was very real. So overall: ✅ Great communication and reassurance ✅ Thoughtful, safe dog introductions ✅ Happy, well-adjusted pup ❗ Slight risk your dog will try to move in permanently Would absolutely book again — just emotionally preparing myself for the betrayal next time”
“Adoni has watched our pup many times for one and two week periods. We have complete confidence in her . Our little Yorkie has come to love and enjoy spending time with Adoni. We are always getting notes and pics sent to us while we are away and have come to consider her a good friend”
“Kayleigh and her children treated my dog like he was one of theirs .Communication was great she gave me updates to help my anxiety as well . Zeus came back home with out a cough which was definitely a plus for me . I will definitely be going to her again”
“Asausha is amazing. My pup had some separation anxiety and had several accidents. Asausha was patient with him and made adjustments to make his stay more comfortable. Very professional and really is a dog LOVER! Book her today!”
“Sadie was so well taken care of by Crystal and her family. The communication was easy and prompt. They treated Sadie as one of their own. We would certainly use Crystal again. This was a great experience!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years and have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’m responsible, patient, and love giving every dog the attention and care they deserve. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and keeping your dog comfortable and happy while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, and well cared for! 🐶❤️ I go to school from 8am to 1:15pm to which is when I am not available, anything after that time i will be available, And happy to help! I have a fenced in backyard. I live on a back road kinda off the road. I have a small Shih Tzu but he can be kept away safely. I can keep all dogs separated by room crate or fence. I am CPR experienced for dogs. And I am 20 minutes away from an emergency vet an 15 minutes from a regular vet. I would do anything to keep a dog safe because I do not want to see anyone sad or hurt.

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 Buford 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 Buford.
<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 Buford 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.
