“Melanie is amazing! Not only does she provide photos throughout the day, but she is genuinely interested in your pet’s health and happiness. She made a great recommendation to help get our pup back to eating, after struggling for months to eat regularly. I highly recommend!”
“Hillary and the rest of her family are just the sweetest! She was so great with communication and pictures, and my pup obviously loved being there. Will be booking with her again!”
“David was amazing and truly understanding. Our children had a track meet 4hrs away that went over in time by 3-4hrs. David’s flexibility to still provide loving care for our furbaby meant a lot to us.”
“I read the Brandy’s reviews and was impressed but because this was my first time leaving my dog I was nervous. Brandy was exceptionally great. I got daily updates with pictures and videos. I felt so comfortable after the first night I will use you always for my fur baby. She communicated with me before she gave her anything other than treats and I was very pleased. My fur baby had a great time because the next day after I picked her up she slept lol. Thank you Brandy for doing a great job with my precious cargo (Hennicey).”
“Julie and Ken were fantastic! Fern stayed with them for a full week. Julie kept me up to date everyday with pictures and a little note about her day. Knowing that she was with a caring family made it easy for me to not worry while on vacation. I will absolutely rebook with them!”

“Hannah took great care of our dog while we were away. She sent us so many pictures and updates, took him on long “sniffaris,” and even took care of a little wound near his ear. Hannah is an experienced, caring, and dedicated sitter who clearly puts a lot of time and attention into the dogs she looks after. We felt very comfortable knowing he was in such good hands!”

“Melissa was such a wonderful find on such a short notice! She was open and warm, and Roxy greatly enjoyed her time with her - especially trying out the beach for the first time. Thanks so much, Melissa!”
“Wendy and Johnny took wonderful care of Clark Kent during his stay. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was safe, happy, and so well cared for while I was away. Their thoughtful updates and photos meant the world to me and made it so much easier to be apart from him. It was clear they genuinely cared about Clark and treated him like one of their own. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust them again and look forward to booking with them in the future. Tell Dennis Clark appreciated his company and sharing his space with him. Thank you both for taking such great care of my little buddy!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Cape Charles on Rover is $34.7 per night (as of September 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 .

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.
100% of Cape Charles 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 Cape Charles 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 Cape Charles 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 Cape Charles.
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 Cape Charles 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.
