“Amber did an excellent job watching Bella! She made her feel right at home. She updated me several times of her well being and what the plan was for the day. I would definitely use her again!”
“And again I want to thank Heather for taking such a great care of my dog! Every time Floki comes home happy and relaxed. He loves her so much and knowing my pup is loved and in great hands puts me at ease while I’m away.”
“We’ve boarded our two dogs with Audree. Audree takes great care of our pups and she is so easy to communicate with. She was flexible with an earlier pick up time. She sent pictures of our pups letting us know Milo and Kenzie was safe and enjoying their play time. Milo and Kenzie will be most definitely be coming back to stay again. Thank you Audree!”
“Erica took great care of our dog, Kaiju. She sent us updates and pictures which was nice because this was the first time we have been away for any period of time in the 4 years we have had Kaiju. It was nice to get the updates and have that piece of mind. Also, she had other dogs that Kaiju got to play with and he got to meet chickens for the first time. We appreciate the care Erica provided and will use her again.”
“Tina did such a great job watching our dog while we were out of town. She regularly checked in and if I messaged her she was prompted in response. I will definitely use her in the future.”
“Tracy was outstanding! I’ve NEVER felt more comfortable leaving my Duke with anyone else as I did with Tracy. We received daily updates (pics/videos) of hun and it kept my mind at ease that our baby was being cares for. Thank you so much Tracy! You are a Godsend!”
“Sonja and Phil did an excellent job looking after our fur babies and we will certainly be repeat customers. They shared multiple pics and updates daily, which set my mind at ease as I am always anxious about boarding them.”
“My dog's time with Jessie was amazing. I could just tell when she returned that she was well loved and taken care of. I was so pleased with Jessie as a caretaker. She communicated well and did everything exactly as my dog needed. So grateful!”
“Richard and his family were the perfect fit for our dog, Honey! Honey is a 15 year old, small dog who has recently gone deaf. She struggles with other dogs and I was having a hard time finding someone who would only take one dog at a time. Then I found Richard! Honey felt right at home with them. I loved the picture and video updates each night. She returned home happy, healthy and ready to play. Thank you so much for taking care of our sweet old girl!”
“Rosalina and her family were incredibly kind and attentive to my dog. They sent me daily photos of him having a great time with her family. I’m definitely booking with her again! The service was exceptional and I highly recommend her.”
“Sheridan took excellent care of Dexter, she took the time to meet and greet us before hand. She was in consistent communication and sent pictures. I feel very comfortable with leaving my dog with her.”
“We really appreciate Jorge and his family for taking really good care of Gatsby! They spoiled him and made him feel like he was part of the family! We highly recommend this family to anyone who wants their dog to have a ball, and be loved on!”
About: I grew up in a house full of animals (dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, fish) and loved it. Less than a year after moving out to attend college I got my own puppy (Havanese). 12 years later I found myself getting a second dog after my parents and a sibling adopted her other 2 sisters (English Cream Golden Retriever puppies). We dogsit for them, and of course they come to family get-togethers, so we're used to having extra dogs in our house! In 2025 we said goodbye to our first dog, and a few months later welcomed home our foster-to-adopt puppy (chihuahua-beagle mix). The kids love playing and cuddling with dogs and understand when they need space. My job allows flexibility in my schedule to work from home when needed. I usually work early hours so that I can have more time available in the afternoons & evenings to spend with family. Caring for pets and considering their feeding/potty breaks is already part of our daily routine. Having my own home, family, and pets I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy and respectful to take care of your pets. Your pet will be treated as one of our own.
“Surly had an amazing stay with Lorena and her family. We are new to the area and very lucky to have found a wonderful place for Surly to stay when we travel. He was well taken care of and we got lots of picture updates. Surly looks forward to a future stay! Thank you!”
“We're repeat clients, and it's always a great experience. Kyon truly enjoys his time with this family! Yeny and Ray are warm, welcoming, and treat every pet as if they were their own. Their genuine love and care for animals really shines through.”
“Dayonna was truly amazing with Noelle. I was soo happy to see Noelle comfortable and happy with Dayonna from the Meet and Greet and the drop off for boarding. All of the requests were followed from giving her the remaining meds, letting her out every 3 hrs due to the meds and more importantly giving her lots of attention. Dayonna provided updates and pics which were greatly appreciated. Thank Dayonna for your awesome care for my fur baby 😊 We will see you again for our next boarding services 👍”
About: I have always been an animal lover! I spent a better chunk of my high school and college years watching horses, donkeys, dogs, cats, fish, birds, ferrets, chickens, and basically any other critter you can think of. I will absolutely love your animals as my own. I am available on short notice and can do daytime dog sitting. I am able to administer shots, IM injections, oral medications, or whatever special needs your pet may have. I work from home on my 6.52 acre farmette. I have a fenced in yard, a dog door, and a sweet old lady dog who is happy to show the dogs the ropes! I have 5 fenced in acres for dogs to run around and play. I love to spend time outside playing with all the animals I can get my hands on. I’m equipped for horses, donkeys, goats, ferrets, dogs, birds, and reptiles!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dodds Corner
Stephanie's care and flexibility for our Jack Russell Terrier, Sally, was so thoughtful and appreciated. After our meet-and-greet in July, Sally got an injury requiring medication and reduced running/jumping around--no small feats for a Jack Russell. Stephanie took it in stride and figured out how to adjust to what Sally wanted/needed and was good for us all. We thank her and the blessing she was for us.
Gianna was a perfect sitter for our boy! She made sure to check in with us frequently sending pictures of them playing and cuddling. Our dog was peeing a lot but Gianna was ready with puppy diapers, made my worry go away instantly because it assured me she was completely prepared to take care of anything. I will definitely be booking with her again!

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.
95% of sitters in Dodds Corner 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 Dodds Corner 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 Dodds Corner.
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 Dodds Corner. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Dodds Corner 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.
