“Natasha is awesome! Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Charlie. He came home so relaxed and happy. She took Charlie for walking also. She has such a kind, gentle way with dogs, and her communication was fantastic—frequent photos, updates and super prompt responses the whole time. We will absolutely look to her for future pet care and will gladly recommend her to everyone we know!”
“Amy took such great care of my dog, Lola. She sent pictures everyday and gave me updates on her to let me know how she was doing. This is my first time using a sitter while on vacation and I am more than pleased. My dog is 14 years old so I worry about how she’ll do when I am out of town. Amy was so sweet with her! I”
“Stephen did an incredible job caring for my two doggos - including my senior dog who needs extra TLC. He was communicative, warm, professional, and super focused on making the stay a great experience for everyone. So glad to have found him!!”
“This was my first time using the app. We’re so thankful to have had Ms. Paula host Bentley. She kept me up to date on him and kept him comfortable until he was ready to mingle with the other dogs. Now he has new friends.”
“Kelsi was fantastic! She kept us informed through messaging with photos. Our little Frenchie was equally excited. If you love your pets, Kelsi is a great option to care for your fur babies!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Elizabeth as our dog sitter. She was professional, caring, and went the extra mile for our dog, Stella. Regular updates were much appreciated. I highly recommend her!”
“My husband and I booked with Denise two days prior for our last minute little weekend get away . Denise responded in 10 minutes and set up a meet and greet and we enjoyed the meet and greet so much we booked her . She gave us a run down of everything and she interacted well with our Laika girl. She even accommodated the fact that Laika isn’t good with being around other dogs. She gave my baby girl one on one time and kept me updated throughout my entire vacation.We was able to enjoy a vacation and Laika was able to enjoy a mini vacation as well. When we picked Laika up she told us just how lucky we were to have Laika and called her the “model boarding dog“ . We will absolutely be using her services again in the future. Felt good to trust someone with my pup and treat her like their own, so much that Laika didn’t even seem like she wanted to leave.”
“Sheri and her family took wonderful care of Kimber. He went on fun adventures and clearly received a lot of love and attention. I could not be happier to have found such an amazing sitter. 100/10!!!!!! Kimber can't wait to go back.”
“Certainly! Here's a potential review for Cyndi: I cannot recommend Cyndi highly enough as a dog sitter! She is incredibly professional and takes her responsibilities very seriously. My senior dog requires daily medications, and she handled everything with such care and expertise that I felt completely at ease. While I was away, Cyndi sent frequent updates, including photos and messages, to reassure me that everything was going smoothly. It was clear that my dog was in good hands, and her attentiveness and communication made all the difference. If you are looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and detail-oriented sitter, Cyndi is the one!”
“Thank you to Terry for taking care of both my young and old dogs and for making sure they were well fed and watched. She did a great job with sending pics and updates.”
“THANKS ROVER FOR YOUR HELP!!! Riley was great! My Sheba Inu, Pickles really liked her! Riley sent me pictures of Pickles & I think she was smiling☺️ I have never left Pickles with anybody B4 & she’s definitely a mama‘s girl! Riley assured me they would have fun& I could tell Pickles definitely did! Plus she picked up and delivered Pickles form home & that made everything much easier! I would definitely use Riley again!”
“My pup had a great time with Jesse and his dogs! He got lots of exercise and was a happy boy when we picked him up. Jesse has very prompt and helpful communication. Will book again!”
“Matt was an amazing Rover find. He was very quick with communication, and answered all the questions I had. He also allowed for a meet and greet prior to booking, and his home is truly set up for the pups to be comfortable. During my Bella’s stay he provided both pictures and updates every day which put my mind at ease while I was on vacation. I was nervous about leaving her with a stranger, but thought this was better than traditional boarding. And I am very happy I made this decision. I highly recommend Matt based on my experience.”
“Matthew & Lucky are the best! They have always taken great care of my sweet Bailey. She has stayed with them several times & has always had the best time playing with her friends 🐾 Daily photos & updates are provided as well. I definitely recommend booking with them & look forward to bringing Bailey back soon!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dabneys
I cannot recommend this wonderful woman enough! Our dog had the best time staying with Natasha and her sweet family. We received photos daily and our dog was always happily playing with children and occasionally with other dogs. I was able to enjoy our vacation with complete confidence that our puppy was doing just fine! 100% RECOMMEND!! THANK YOU!
Our pup is very very shy, and incredibly sensitive. We wanted to make sure that she could stay with someone patient, understanding, and kind. Alexandra was amazing with our girl and she left with more confidence than we dropped her off with! All instructions were followed, we got frequent updates, and the service went above and beyond what we would typically expect from any dog sitter. Worth every penny and we will be booking again

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 Dabneys 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 Dabneys.
<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 Dabneys 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.
