“Once again, Amy did a fantastic job while we were out of town. She provides updates and check in in timely fashion to know our little guy is safe and happy. We will be booking again.”
“My girl tends to be very nervous and scared around new people and environments and she has never been left with anyone before so of course I was worried with how everything would go. Cyndi made my dog feel so at ease and sent me so many updates my girl was right at home within an hour. I was so happy! Bailey will be back soon!”
“Emily was a great sitter for my fur baby! She was very thorough, from the initial booking to picking up my dog. I received updates and pictures daily. I will definitely be booking her again!”
“Laura was wonderful. We liked her immediately and she was really good with my dog Banksy. When we walked in her home I knew we had made the right choice. Banksy got a lot of attention from Laura and had fun playing with her dog Daisy in the backyard. We really appreciated the videos and pictures she sent as well.”
“Mila had a great time! Peyton (and company) were very accommodating for a last minute need. I received updates with pictures showing what a fun time Mila had.”
“Was such a great host of my cat pumpkin. Sent timely updates and made sure to get the cutest pictures of her back to me during her stay! Definitely hope to book her again in the future.”
“One of my go-tos for dog sitting. They take great care of my girl and I always pick her up happy as can be. Their dog is great with mine and greets us with enthusiasm every time I bring her over.”
“Grace is amazing! She took wonderful care of Boogie and sent us tons of pics of our lil guy! Communicative and friendly — I had such great peace of mind while we were away and knew he was in good hands. Boogie came back a happy dog :-) Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Becky was nice and she sent me pics and updated me the entire time. They were active with my baby and she was worn out when she got home which was a plus...lol. I would def use her again!”
“My boyfriend and I booked boarding with Aimee for a week, and she was great! I’m very grateful for her flexibility. I originally thought our flight would land on Monday, but it landed Tuesday. She was very accommodating and was able to keep Bo the extra day. She sent multiple pictures during the week updating us. Being so far away, it made our minds relax knowing that he’s in good hands with her. I highly recommend booking with Aimee!!”
“Jessica was our Christmas miracle!!! She was so kind and flexible when our plans were changing. She sent updates everyday with multiple pics without me having to ask first. She was always quick to respond and took great care of Ranjha (she had already read up on his history before we had our meet and greet so she could ask all the right questions!) We will definitely be booking with her again :)”
About: It's pretty simple - I love dogs and I work from home. Having recently said goodbye to my own best boy, Gary (a squishy English bulldog mix), I can guarantee that I'll get as much happiness out of seeing your dog as your dog will hopefully get from seeing me! I understand how important it is to know your pet is comfortable in your absence. I will treat yours as my own and send you as many updates as you'd like! Some key skills that may come in handy: - Walking dogs with leash reactivity - Experience with senior pets and those with medical needs - Administering medications, injections, paw wraps, etc. I'm currently working from home full-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play and love on your pups! I'm available for boarding all day, every day and would be happy to have a four-legged coworker around :) I have a fenced yard to keep your fur baby safe while exploring and getting lots of sniffs! We also keep a clean and tidy home to ensure your pet is always safe. Of course, there may be times when I need to step out (I'm human after all!), but will be happy to abide by any requests you have. Things like bowls, leashes, light up collars, pet gates, and a crate can be made available.
“Ethel and Clay were awesome sitters for my dogs, Diesel and Murphy! Diesel is a senior now, so I am very particular about who watches him. Murphy is still a puppy so he is high energy. Ethel was able to meet both of their needs - she was very detail oriented about Diesel’s medications and limitations in walking, but she was also to accommodate for my much younger dog’s need for mental stimulation and exercise. I felt extremely comfortable with my dogs being there for a full week. 11/10 would use her again in a heart beat!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I grew up in a home with three cats and regularly pet sat for dogs and cats. Today, I have an 80-pound dog and two cats of my own, so I understand the importance of finding a reliable, caring sitter who treats your pets like family. I have a flexible schedule and work from home on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I’m also home on the weekends and can arrange my schedule around your pet’s stay to provide plenty of supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day. My home has a fenced in backyard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time and play. I also have two cats who can be kept completely separate from visiting pets as needed. I’ll take the time to get to know your dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs to help them feel safe and comfortable in my care. Whether we’re going for walks, playing with favorite toys, spending time in the backyard, or simply relaxing together, I want your pup to feel right at home. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, exercise, and any special care needs, and I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you can see how your furry friend is doing while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care that gives you peace of mind and makes your dog’s time away from you as happy and stress free as possible! I will plan my schedule around your pet’s stay so they aren’t left alone. We’ll have plenty of time for walks, playtime, attention, and cuddles, so your pet will get lots of company and care while you’re away! My home has a fenced-in backyard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time and play. I have a friendly, pet-loving household with a dog of my own and two cats, who can be kept completely separate from visiting pets as needed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. I’ll take the time to understand their personality, routines, and needs, and I’ll make sure any introductions to other dogs are handled carefully. I’m happy to follow your preferences for feeding, exercise, sleeping arrangements, and house rules so your pet feels comfortable in a new environment. I have a flexible schedule and can arrange to be home throughout your pet’s stay, providing plenty of supervision, playtime, attention, and affection. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is being well cared for!
“Damacia is an amazing sitter for my dog, Jazzy! She kept me updated with pictures and made sure Jazzy was well cared for the entire time. From the moment I met her at drop-off, she was so welcoming and kind. I also had a medical emergency at the airport and had to change my flight at the last minute. Danika was incredibly accommodating and allowed Jazzy to stay an extra night without hesitation. She responded quickly with genuine care and concern, which meant so much to me during a stressful situation. I truly appreciate her flexibility, professionalism, and kindness. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Ronda is amazing, patient, and very caring. She kept my puppy with great care, took him on walks, and sent many pictures timely. We will definitely go back to her next time onwards. Highly recommended.”
“Alexander was such a great host for my Akita. He treated Rocko just like his own and I did not have to worry for even one second. He is great with communication and just great with dogs. Not everyone knows how to handle an Akita or big dog - Alexander 100% did and did the best job. I would recommend him 100% if you want your pet to be in the best hands. And I will be using him again!. Thank you agajn Alexander!”
“Jennifer welcomed Vera into her home like she had always been there! Vera loved being there and was showered with love and attention! Jennifer will be our “go to” Rover sitter! Thank you!!!!”
“Chris was great, and super attentive to Poppy's needs! We received photo updates, and Poppy seemed happy and exhausted (in the best way) once we picked him up. Poppy can be needy at times, and Chris showed no hesitation to attending to his needs, and neediness, lol!”
About: I frequently dogsit for friends and family, and I've had my soul-dog for 5 years! She's a rescue shepherd-husky mix and has taught me SO much about training and caring for a smart, high-energy dog! She's entering her senior years and has slowed down a lot, which means I have more time in my day to care for other pups, whether it's a check-in, walk, or boarding in my home. I have a fenced front and back yard, and with my location in Church Hill, there are countless places to walk and explore. I currently work from home 95% of the time! The other 5% is a mix of working at coffee shops and going in to my work's coworking space, but I'm never away from home for more than 8 hours a day. My days are very flexible and I'm happy to work around you and your pup's schedule! I have a fenced front yard that is grassy and a shady, fenced back patio/yard that pups can run around in. I only take 1 boarding or day-care client at a time, so your dog gets my full attention (alongside my pup!). Your dog must be friendly around other dogs for boarding or day care.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Chamberlayne is $45

Blythe is amazing! She is very responsive and caring, while being professional and accommodating. She will always do what is in the best interest of the pet. I have used her a few times, especially for longer stays and will continue to do so! I highly recommend her.
Amy and Kris were fantastic!! They took such good care of my babies while I was preparing my house to sell for my move out of state. Constant communication and pics. My babies got to meet new friends and play outside everyday. I would highly recommend these two. I hate leaving my babies anytime but they put my mind at ease and were so loving. Thank you Amy and Kris. When we come back to town I would love for you them to stay with you again!!! I really appreciate you two.
Alexander was such a great host for my Akita. He treated Rocko just like his own and I did not have to worry for even one second. He is great with communication and just great with dogs. Not everyone knows how to handle an Akita or big dog - Alexander 100% did and did the best job. I would recommend him 100% if you want your pet to be in the best hands. And I will be using him again!. Thank you agajn Alexander!
Susan and her family were great with our dog, Haley! They were very prompt with communication and even sent several pictures throughout the day. They have a nice, large fenced in yard, which was great for Haley to run around. We would definitely recommend Susan and her family to anyone who needs a sitter!
Madeline watched our beagle over the weekend. He received excellent care. We received updates. He played in the backyard with her dog. Rested in the living room on his pillow. He was all smiles and happy to see us when we picked him up. As if to say he had a fun weekend and was spoiled. I feel safe leaving him in Madeline’s care.
My dog has been a couple years now. We had this pet family. For us we do long stays & short I’ve been in Florida,Chicago, out the country Bahamas. I rather use this family for long stays. Because my dog knows this family. If you have flights just always communicate with your pet sitter. Me& my husband both like this family.
My three and a half year old golden retriever has never been so happy to see me go on a trip! She had a great time with Geraldine and her family. They made her feel welcome right from the start and treated her like a princess throughout the long holiday weekend. She was happy to see me when I got back but, after a few minutes of wiggle butt and some attention, she laid down and decided she was staying. She’s never been that at home anywhere! I’m so grateful, I enjoyed my vacation knowing my little girl was well taken care of.
Michelle & her family were great! We felt so comfortable leaving our little Kashi with them. Kashi’s tiny & a bit older, and knew she would love to cozy up with them and she did. Thanks for your you so much! We’d definitely recommend Michelle to anyone needing a sitter.
I was very happy with Matt from start to finish they were punctual, communicative, and clearly know how to care for dogs. They sent regular updates and photos so I could see NuNu, which put me at ease while I was away. I’d definitely book them again and recommend them to other pet owners.

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 Chamberlayne 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 Chamberlayne 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 Chamberlayne.
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 Chamberlayne. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 Chamberlayne 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.
