“Leidy agreed to watch our German shepherd with a short notice and did an incredible job! Send frequent updates and pictures which we love! Very grateful he was in such good hands while we had to leave town!”
“Kayce and her husband are the greatest! We left Annie with them for a long weekend and she was wonderful. Kept us updated daily with photos and messages of our Annie and helped put our minds at ease that she was settled with them during her stay. They have a huge fenced in back yard that Annie enjoyed playing and sniffing around in, she had a blast! We highly recommend Kayce!”
“My pups loved their stay with Abby and her family! I highly recommend and will definitely use her services in the future! Being able to vacation with the peace of mind that my pups were safe and happy was amazing! Thank you Abby!!”
“Ellysia is the best! My pups had the greatest time with her and her family. Updated daily with pictures and activities. We will definitely be using her again and recommend her hands down.”
“Dylan and Alex were great. They have a lovely home and fenced in yard for the our dog's to play in. They sent us daily check ins and were super responsive. We would definitely use them again!”
“These lovely sitters have a special place in our hearts. They truly seem to be a second family to our precious Mae. Highly recommend above all if the other boarders we’ve used through Rover and other means of securing a pet sitter.”
“Kendra was amazing with Tinkerbell. She kept us updated each day which put our mind at ease with this being our first time using Rover. The pictures where the best as we could see in real time how well she was being cared for. Thank you Kendra!”
“Ms Anika and her family was great taking care of Dog I thought it would be an issue but when I reached out to her she responded back and sent a video of my dog having fun I will definitely re-book with her in my next trip”
“Amazing experience! Very communicative and made us feel very comfortable with us leaving our baby with her. She sent daily updates putting us at ease since this was the first time we have ever left her with someone we didn’t personally know! Lots of playtime and definitely given lots of love and care!”
“This was my first time ever using Rover, and Amy and Grant made it such a great experience! They were absolutely amazing with my dog Oscar—super communicative, informative, and clearly very caring. I got regular updates and photos, and it looked like Oscar was having the best time. He came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. I could tell they treated him like part of the family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda and Adam sent me pictures of our dog every day and an update on how she was doing. She is a not an easy going dog because she is nervous and has separation anxiety, but they were able to handle her and she liked them, their dogs and their kids. We will be using them again next time we travel!”
“I was extremely satisfied with the care Bentley received while with Amanda and her family. Her fur babies were very welcoming to Bentley and I felt he was happy with his new friends. To my surprise, they went on a “field trip” where they were allowed to run off leash and smell and play in a very large confined space . I worried he would not want to leave with me and leave his friends behind. I highly recommend Amanda and will definitely use her in the future!!”
“Jay, was amazing. She kept me updated and my pup and made sure to show me all the fun that he was having so that I knew he was comfortable and well cared for during his stay.”
“Kelsey took very good care of my doggie. She provided updates throughout the day and my lil doggie looked so calm and content. I would definitely recommend Kelsey. ☺️”
“Elaine and Steven took wonderful care of our hyper Goldendoodle, no easy assignment given his energy levels. He came back to us better behaved, calmer, and better socialized. Elaine and Steven also took time to update us with photos and reports of our dog’s state of being. They have a wonderful, large property, with lots of room for dogs to explore. Thanks to Elaine and Steven, our dog had a better vacation than we did. I cannot recommend Elaine and Steven more enthusiastically.”
“Adam is a natural, per Cooper. We knew the moment we met him that Cooper was in good hands. Cooper took to him immediately and made himself at home. We got him back last night and Cooper was calm and happy. Thanks Adam!!!”
“Cameron absolutely loved his stay at Allejah’s home. She stayed in close contact with us and gave Cameron the best possible care. We are so thankful to have found her!”
“Ari took such good care of Stella!! I received updates and photos every day. You could tell Stella was having an awesome time. Ari was very accommodating of Stellas needs as an older dog with knee issues. Her home is so dog friendly with plenty of places for Stella to rest and explore. She was also very understanding and flexible with my travel plans. Would 1000% recommend, and Stella will be back here for sure”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ettrick
We had a wonderful experience with Leidy! She took excellent care of our senior dog, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It was obvious our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for ❤️ We would absolutely book with Leidy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Johnnie provided exceptional care for my pet and maintained excellent communication throughout the entire process. I truly appreciated the updates and attention given to my pet’s needs. I would definitely use Johnnie’s services again and highly recommend them to others. Thank you so much for the outstanding care!
We had a great experience with our dog sitter. He took excellent care of our dog, kept us updated, and made sure everything went smoothly while we were away. It was clear that he genuinely cared and was attentive to our dog’s needs. We felt completely comfortable knowing our pet was in good hands. We will definitely be using him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. 🐾
This is the first time I have used a sitter for my pups and the experience was amazing because of Courtney and Lilly! I would recommend them to anyone wanting to find a sitter in the area regardless if they have used sitters before or not. They were great overall and even sent updates daily on how they were doing! They will be our go-to anytime we need a sitter moving forward!
Sara and Jakob were great with Kingsley. They seem to really know animals and how to handle them as well. We needed someone who will provide just the right amount of play and rest for Kingsley as he is a Big Energetic puppy. Sara provided pictures and videos daily and let me know Kingsley's schedule everyday at "winter camp" with her own doggies lol. Two days before the end of our boarding period, I asked if they would give Kingsley a bath at extra cost and they happily said yes even though it was kind of last minute and Kingsley is a big dog! Kingsley came back very clean and happy. We felt good during our time away and was able to enjoy our trip knowing that Kingsley was being taken care of. We are definitely going to take Kingsley to Sara again the next time we are away! Thanks guys!
When I say Angel, I mean Angel. I was all the way across the Atlantic when the person I trusted to keep our fur-baby was not able to care for him properly. We were really contemplating returning home. Rover has held me before; but not like this. It was 4:30 a.m. in the morning when I DESPERATELY reached out to several providers. I don't know why but Taijah responded almost immediately. After a few text messages back and forth, she agreed to pick Mylo up from the house and board him. She picked him up by 8 the same morning, and when my flight came in late, she kept him for us. Her calm spirit, her professionalism, and her bond with Mylo, allowed us to enjoy the rest of our stay knowing he was in good hands. She sent photos, kept me updated and it almost made me jealous to see him so comfortable with her after just meeting her. I am SO grateful and so blessed to have found her at such a critical time. She allowed Mylo to snuggle with her and I believe that allowed him to recover. She will forever be my go to. I thank Rover so much for this service...but most of all I thank Taijah for taking such good care of our baby and coming through in a traumatic clutch.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ettrick on Rover is $42.42 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of June 2026, there are 782 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ettrick. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Ettrick sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Ettrick landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ettrick 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 Ettrick.
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 Ettrick 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.
