“We recently moved to NOVA from Midlothian and had to find a new Rover Ally to watch our 2 sweet Goldens- We used someone who lived in the same town and it did not go well at all so we were very nervous about leaving them again with anyone else. I can hands down say this was one of our best Rover experiences ever!! Joel and Janelle have a beautiful place with a large grassy fenced yard! They sent periodic incredible “action” pictures and our Goldens did not seemed stressed at all when we picked them up. We are looking forward to our stay with them early next month.”
“Chris and his family is awesome special thanks to Carla Chris Mom who even keep us updated with everything all the time and take care of our snuggle just like his own baby our snuggle feel like he is living in his own home while we were away for vacations for whole week. Chris is attentive, loving, prompt, flexible, friendly, very professional & very good with dogs . He also has excellent communication skills. Chris is reliable and you can feel comfortable leaving your dog with him it’s second time we left our baby with Chris and his family. He provided daily text updates with lots of pictures. Thank you once again Chris and his Mom and Dad for taking care of our baby snuggle. Snuggle will definitely miss you guys especially Carla and will come back to you guys whenever we go again in future.”
“Barbara was one of the best hosts I’ve ever booked. She’s so kind, incredibly experienced with a variety of breeds, and has amazing intuition when it comes to meeting your pup’s needs. She sends lots of fun photos and videos and I was so comforted by the fact that I knew my darling dog was having a blast and was in great hands. I can’t wait to rebook!”
“Once again, Cindy was the best! My dog was happy to see Cindy. She treats my dog like one of the family. She makes sure she’s fed, walked, and sends me pictures and a note. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Cindy is the best!!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Tara provided for my husky, Rocky! Huskies can be a handful, but she handled him perfectly — keeping him exercised, happy, and well-loved while she was boarding him. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I picked him up, Rocky was calm, clean, and clearly well cared for.”
“Charlie was so great with Dougie!!! My pup can be shy and a little unsure of new surroundings but he was at ease with Charlie and his dogs! I would absolutely use his services again!”
“Leo loved his time with Emily! He loved exploring her property and obviously felt comfortable with her based on his behavior when dropping him off and picking him up 🙂”
“Jesse was fantastic! She watched Canyon over Christmas and sent the most pictures I’ve ever gotten. It was very easy and canyon loved playing with the other dogs she was sitting.”
“I had an excellent experience with Katherine! She truly went above and beyond in taking care of my dog. Katherine kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog boarder!”
“Our 1.5yr old puppy, Birdie, was in the very best hands with Melissa during a recent boarding! Melissa is thorough in her intake, noting Birdie's food allergies and current schedule, and is warm and gentle in helping pups acclimate to a new environment. Melissa maintained Birdie's schedule, giving her plenty of outdoor and play time, and administered Birdie's medication, giving us peace of mind to focus on family. We enjoyed the handful of photos Melissa sent along the way and always appreciate her responsive communication. Melissa is deeply professional and the most thorough and warm caretaker and our expectations are always surpassed when Birdie is with Melissa!”
“Sarah was wonderful with Murphy and Mazi. She kept me updated with pictures, handled their medications carefully, and clearly treated them like part of the family. I really appreciated how flexible and accommodating she was with my schedule, including extending their stay by an extra day when my plans changed. I would absolutely trust Sarah with them again.”
“Anahita was absolutely wonderful with my 1.5-year-old boy, Ranger! He’s still all pup-full of energy and curiosity, but she handled him with so much patience and care. She was incredibly responsive and respectful, keeping me updated and continuing to work with him on his manners and behavior. It’s clear she truly loves dogs. Our boy was in such good hands—highly recommend!”
“Ellen! You have done it again. Thank you so much for taking care of our pups. I love when Maya just doesn’t want to leave because she loves the farm. That’s how much they love you. THANKS!”
“Heidi and her family take great care of our dog. I do not worry when she is in their care and she has a great time! My kids and I also love the daily pictures and videos of our pup, they mean so much!”
“Maki and Joel are exceptionally kind Rover hosts! They were patient with my anxious dog and communicated frequently with me, including multiple photos. I cannot say enough good things about them!”
“If you're ever looking for a place for your fur kids to stay while you go out of town, I highly recommend Laura. I have 2 neurotic cats; 1 has CH that does not like getting confined in crates/small place and the other is spicy/moody. The stay was short with a (somewhat) unusual request, but Laura took them all in stride and went the extra mile to look after Sam and Cloud. Definitely one of my best rover experience and would not hesitate to ask her again in the future.”
“Elisa and her family were fantastic! They took great care of our Yorkie and sent us updates with pictures every day, which really put our minds at ease. I could tell that she was loved and pampered. We will definitely be booking them again. Thanks again.”
“Terri was absolutely wonderful. She let us do a meet & greet before leaving my pups which really gave me peace of mind. She had a nice & clean environment. Daily reassurance of how they have been doing along with a ton of pictures and to top it of she was so kind to gift them some new toys to keep!”

We highly recommend Joel & Janelle! They helped us in a pinch when our sitter had to cancel super last minute. This was our first time using Rover and it definitely won’t be the last. I was really nervous going out of our comfort zone especially while being out of town but Joel and Janelle responded quickly, answered all questions and took great care of our girl. We even got super cute pictures! They both were very kind and accommodating. Highly recommend! Thank you again Joel and Janelle! We really appreciate everything!
Juliana is hands down THE BEST! She is super knowledgeable about how to best introduce your pup to hers. Her house is a haven for pups, with a nice big fenced yard, plenty of toys, and lots of soft places for naps. My sweet old man absolutely loved his time with her, and we will absolutely be using her for all of our boarding going forward!
Molly was amazing! She cared for Luna for 2 weeks while I had some work trips. I felt very comfortable leaving Luna with Molly during that time, and she kept me updated on how she was doing. Luna was a very happy doggo when I picked her up, so I know she had the best time with Molly. Would definitely recommend Molly to anyone :)

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.
95% of sitters in Douglas Grove 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 Douglas Grove 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 Douglas Grove.
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 Douglas Grove. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 Douglas Grove 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 WV 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.
