“This was our first time using this sitter, and we had a great experience! They were very nice and took great care of my dog. He seemed happy and comfortable, and we would definitely consider booking with them again”
“Deborah and her daughter were so kind, and Theo had the best vacation with them! He was spoiled with a pup cup, long walks, and snuggles! Definitely recommend booking your dog’s stay with them!”
“We left our dog Marlo with Derek for the weekend and he was great! He definitely knows his way around dogs and provided us with updates and pics throughout the weekend!”
“Carl was fantastic. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my dog as if it were his own. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book Carl again. Highly recommend!”
“Blanca was an amazing sitter. She helped me out in a pinch with a last minute, kept me updated during my little guys stay, and showed him lots of love. I would definitely recommend her to folks on this platform!”
“Helen was fantastic with Hunter and Raven! She watched them for a few hours during my sister's wedding, and I couldn't have been more pleased. Both dogs were happy and well-cared for when I returned. Helen was professional, attentive, and clearly has a way with animals. I highly recommend her services and would definitely book with her again!”
“Highly Recommended! I couldn't be happier with the care Barfie received! Nalleli did an incredible job socializing him and kept me updated with daily photos and videos, which I truly appreciated. It was so clear he was happy, well-exercised, and loved—I'll definitely be booking again!”
“We are so grateful to Shiva for taking such wonderful care of our Frenchie, Arya! 🐾 From the moment we met Shiva, we felt completely comfortable leaving Arya in her care. She was incredibly loving, attentive, and thorough, making sure every detail of Arya’s care and routine was taken care of. Shiva was thoughtful about everything—from feeding and walks to making sure Arya was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. She kept us updated while we were away, which gave us such peace of mind, and it was clear that Arya was in wonderful hands. We came home to a very happy pup, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. We highly recommend Shiva to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, thorough, and genuinely caring. We will absolutely be asking her to look after Arya again! ❤️”
“We are always grateful for John and Joanna for taking good care of our girl. She loves them and is most happy to be with them 😊 We trust them fully to care for her when we are away.”
“William was wonderful to our boy, Mickey! He was so flexible and understanding to coordinate a meet and greet then overnight stay. Lots of updates were sent showing Mickey having a great time with Maui! Thank you for being so welcoming and accommodating!”
“Robert and Connie were amazing! They had Olly for 4 days and one morning and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I was a little nervous about trying Rover, but I’m so grateful for such a great experience. They were very accommodating and asked questions to ensure your dog is getting the best care. I was confident I was leaving Olly in great hands. I would absolutely ask Connie and Robert to watch Olly again the next time I go somewhere!”
“Batman had a wonderfully fun stay with Christina! We had a last minute boarding necessity and she was able to take our 70lb lab/pit for a few days and night. It was his first time being away from home and we were a little worried about how he would do, but she kept us updated and was in constant communication with us throughout his stay!”
“Your search is over. Karmen is the absolute best doodle mom of all time. I have never met a person who loves and adores Doodles more than she does. The absolute joy on her face when she gets to care and love on Doodles is truly something to be seen. She has been taking care of our Ginger for years and I cannot tell you how excited our dog gets just knowing that she gets to go over to Karmen‘s house. I mean she’s over the moon ecstatic, can’t even control herself. When in Karmen care she’s is truly treated as one of the family, spoiled rotten, played with constantly, we get continuous pictures and video throughout the day that we live for when we’re away from Ginger. Truly, Karmen is one of kind, there is no other who will love on your pet as much as she will. She was born to care and love on dogs. Our family is so grateful.”
“Mohammed and his daughter took such good care of my Abby while I was out of state for a family trip for 10 days. She came back happy and very sleepy which means she had a great time! I got daily photo updates of her on walkies and an A+ report card of her behavior. Would love to have Abby with Mohammed for a future stay again if the availability and stars align.”
“We left our Ginny with Shaheen for about 12 days. We had done a lot of research and did one trial day (partly to see how things went and partly we hoped to help Ginny know we will be back) with Shaheen before our trip. We chose Shaheen because he seemed positive, alert and joyful, and because he had experience with reactive dogs and could protect Ginny well and keep her in a low stress environment (boarding in kennels was not an option). Of course we were nervous, but I can tell by Ginny's personality, mood and behaviors since our return a few days ago that she did pretty well with Shaheen. I believe that he did provide good care for Ginny. She gained 3 pounds, though, so we are working that off her. Ha ha, I feel good knowing Shaheen managed Ginny's extreme energy and pestering little sister behavior with extra treats instead of locking her in a crate. She is really quite a handful and Shaheen handled her well.”
“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! ❤️”
“Phil and Amanada did such a great work with our dog that usually was stressed out when we were away. They sent daily reports and did everything they could to make sure he is enjoying his time. I would definitely recommend them and will rebook with him for future :)”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Countryside is $54

Jamar was absolutely wonderful with Brooklyn! He took great care of her and kept me updated with pictures throughout her stay. She looked so happy and seemed to be having the best time in every photo, which gave me so much peace of mind. I truly appreciate the care and attention he gave her. I would definitely trust him with Brooklyn again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
We had a good meet and greet before the stay since we had a new pairing. Barry had a comfortable time with the family. I’m a helicopter dog parent and as Barry gets older we see him develop limps from time to time which happened on this stay also. I was informed of the limp and he recovered well during the stay.
Tatiana was a very sweet caregiver for both my dog and cat. She provided them with walks and exercise. I think they both were spoiled with the amount of care they each received. My dog seemed to love having other dogs around to play with or was was just happy to relax. I think they didn’t want to come home. Tatiana communicate very well with me photos and videos of each of them playing or laying around just so I can see they were OK. I would highly recommend her to anyone if they ask me where should they go for a pet sitter.
Selina took wonderful care of my senior dog, Scooter, while I was traveling. She was kind, flexible, and very easy to communicate with, including when I needed to extend his stay. She sent sweet updates and photos, and it was obvious Scooter was comfortable and loved while he was there. He even got attached to their “dog blanket,” which was adorable. I really appreciated the extra care, flexibility with pickup times, and how safe I felt leaving him with her. I would definitely book with Selina again and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter. Thank you!
Cesar and his wife took wonderful care of our dog Mochi for 10 days. We received daily updates and sweet pictures of her playing well with their dog Jasper. Not once did I worry about Mochi, you could tell that she was being very well taken care of and nurtured the whole time. Cesar has a lovely home and a beautiful and spacious backyard for the pups to run around. I am so grateful to have found such wonderful care for Mochi. When I picked her up she was completely happy and freshly cleaned and was honestly sad in the car to leave his place! I trust Cesar and his wife wholeheartedly and am thankful for them!
Megan and her family took wonderful care of Mochi while we were out of the country. I was definitely nervous about leaving her with someone new, but they immediately put me at ease. Mochi seemed so happy, relaxed, and comfortable when we got home, which says everything. It was clear she was well cared for and loved while we were away.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
94% of sitters in Countryside 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 Countryside 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 Countryside.
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 Countryside. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Countryside 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.
