“Amanda was amazing. Couldn’t ask for better person to leave our little Scarlet with. Scarlet didn’t want to eat so Amanda shared her dinner with her. Scarlet got lonely at night so Amanda slept beside her on the couch. She treated Scarlet like part of the family. Will definitely use her every time we get away.”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my puppy, Kobe, received from Kayce. This was my first time leaving him, and as a baby puppy, I was naturally nervous. She communicated with me very well, kept me updated, sent pictures, and treated Kobe like he was her own. Knowing he was in such good hands gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her to watch Kobe again.”

“I had fantastic experience with Kendra B. She sent thoughtful daily updates about my dog’s routine, kept up with his walks and playtime, and made sure he finished his food. When I picked him up, he was calm, relaxed, and clearly well cared for—she even took him on a car ride he loved! It was a pleasant stress free experience that gave me real peace of mind. If you’re looking for a true home-away-from-home, I highly recommend Kendra B, and I’ll definitely book with her again!”

“Madelyn took excellent care of my dog Link and provided me with consistent updates so that I knew he was in good hands. I chose her to board him while I was away for the holidays, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to do the same. I could tell he was treated as if she was his own. Thank you!”

“Laura was absolutely amazing! This was my first time leaving Bandit with someone other than friends, family, or a boarding facility, so I was super nervous. However, receiving pictures and updates helped ease my anxiety so much. Bandit definitely had a great time, and I truly appreciate Laura and her family treating him like one of their own. He was completely exhausted when we got home and went straight to sleep, which is a good thing!”


“My Penelope got the opportunity to spend time with Damacia. The best care was given to Miss P she came home nice and tired. Damacia sent pictures of her and kept me informed. Give Damacia a try. You won’t be disappointed and you can enjoy your trip with a peace of mind.”

“This was our first time using Ashley, and we couldn’t be happier. We went on a seven-day cruise and she took amazing care of our dog. Ashley sent us pictures and updates throughout the trip and kept us informed as needed, which gave us total peace of mind. When we unexpectedly got stuck on our cruise ship for an extra day, Ashley immediately stepped in and kept Kaja an additional day with zero hesitation. She was easy to contact, flexible, and truly went above and beyond. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her again!”

“This was my first time using Rover and I was very pleased with Melissa and the love her family gave my sweet little Louie. We booked an overnight boarding for 3 nights and her service and communication were next to none. I greatly appreciate her daily photo updates, as it secured not only myself but the fact my kids were just as pleased to know that their fur brother was in great hands . I’d definitely be willing to book her again and recommend her services to anyone looking for a compassionate caregiver!”


“My dog had a great stay with Laura! She was very kind and I really appreciated how attentive she was to my dog’s schedule. Will definitely use Laura’s services again in the future!”

“Pei and Will took amazing care of Duke! They sent us many pictures and videos and were so kind and caring. Duke is a happy-go-lucky golden retriever but for the first time ever he was sad when he came home because he missed them and their sweet dog Ivy so much. We will definitely hook again in the future!”


“Shay and Jake took such great care of our puppies. As soon as we met them and their awesome kids, we knew that our boys would have a great time while we were out of town. They had plenty of playtime, outside walks, and cuddles with the whole family. The care and security they provided gave us a peace of mind that we have not had with some of our local dog kennels. We will definitely be repeat clients.”

“Kourtney is absolutely phenomenal! We were so worried because our usual Rover sitter was not available. Kourtney was very empathetic with our situation and made our CKCS fur baby feel comfortable. For those out there worried about their anxious pup with special needs, Kourtney is absolutely perfect and a brilliant sitter.”


“My dog Chase stayed with Ayme for several nights and we were so pleased with the whole experience! This was our first booking with Rover, and Ayme was the perfect example of what the site strives for. She was super responsive to our booking request, logistics inquiries, and questions. During our meet and greet and subsequent stay, Ayme was sweet and friendly and welcoming to Chase (and me!). She sent pictures throughout his stay. Chase enjoyed walks, play time in her yard, and a cozy spot to snooze with lots of love. We will be booking again with Ayme!”

“Jayla and her mom were the SWEETEST!! I felt comfortable the moment I met them, you can just tell they are so kind and love animals. I was so nervous leaving our puppy but they sent updates, pictures and videos of our boy the entire weekend we were away. They gave him all the attention he needed while he was there and all the love and cuddles. We will 100% be using them for any future needs!”

“It was a pleasure to have Bean stay with Allejah. She was a sweetheart and so accommodating! I will definitely be booking again. She was extremely considerate of any changes made, as well as any potential problem Bean ran into! <3”

“Julie and Eric were fantastic! They were so understanding, kind, and gentle with my relatively new rescue dog. They provided a very safe, calm, and loving environment. I most highly recommend them for great trusted care, and would certainly use them again.”

“Amber recently watched both of my cats and is amazing! My cats are sweet but they’ve definitely been stressed lately with all the moving, and she made them feel so comfortable. She was fantastic at sending my photos and letting me know how they were doing. I can not recommend her enough. She is amazing with animals and just so sweet and communicative. She made my sweet girls feel so at home and I can’t thank her enough!”

“Michaela was AMAZING! So sweet and attentive to Violet, and sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. She administered Violet’s medications and special food three times a day with no issues and made everything feel effortless. Michaela was also very easy to schedule with and super responsive with communication. We’re so grateful to have found her and will definitely be booking with her 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 Dinwiddie Gardens 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 Dinwiddie Gardens.
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 Dinwiddie Gardens 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.
