“Christine was wonderful with my pup! Very responsive with coordination and updates, and accommodating with my dogs specific needs. It is clear she truly cares for each animal in her home. Highly recommend to others and I will be using her again in the future!”
“Once again, Katerine and Brian took great care of our senior dog, Poly. They are kind and very patient! They sent great photos and updates each day. We always know Poly is in great hands, which provides such peace of mind when traveling. Thank you!”
“Helena took great care of Cameron! From the beginning she was super responsive and was communicative throughout Cam’s stay, sending daily pictures and updates. Thank you!!”
“Laurie and Richard were amazing with my older little pup with anxiety. She loved her stay with them and they catered to her needs so well. The communication and updates were wonderful!”
“Matthew took great care of our dog! He regularly sent pictures and our pup came home exhausted from all the yard/park play. Will definitely book again with him next time we go away.”
“So grateful for Kerstyn to take our Charlie last minute. Our dog got along great with hers! I feel bad my she took such good care of her on walks and lots of snuggles. Will use again!”
“Laura was fantastic! Our German Shepherd received exceptional care from her. We appreciated the frequent updates that reassured us our pet was doing wonderfully. It's clear Laura genuinely cares. After 8 years of using Rover and trying many sitters, Laura stands out as the best. Thanks again, Laura, for taking great care of our girl!”
“Jorge and Alejandra were amazing sitters! They sent us some wonderful pictures of our dog and were great at communicating. Very flexible and accommodating when our travel plans changed. Would highly recommend!”
“Thank you for taking care of Lily. You and your family are a treasure to take care of our Fur Babies. I am grateful for our flexablity on times to pick up and drop off. I will be using you again this fall.”
“John was the most attentive care taker! He took Murph on so many adventures and captured so many photos, I felt like I was there! Will definitely be rebooking! Thank you so much.”
“Jason and Becky gave my dog the highest level of attention and care. My dog is a shepherd mix with relatively high energy. They took the best care of him while I was gone for a few days.”
“Elizabeth is a dog whisperer! Caring for a senior dog requires patience, knowledge, and genuine compassion—and that’s exactly what we found in Elizabeth. Our senior dog requires a slower pace, and a lot of gentle reassurance. Every detail was handled thoughtfully, from maintaining her routine to making sure she was comfortable and relaxed. We received regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Elizabeth is a godsend!”
“Jose took great care of our dog. He was incredibly responsive and sent daily photos which was very helpful since our little dog was staying with him for the first time. We will definitely call on Jose to sit for our dog again!”
“Sush was a great host for our cavapoo. Drop-offs and pick-ups were easy and convenient, and it felt like we were leaving our dog with a friend. Sush was responsive and sent updates throughout his visit. The other friends who stayed during his visit got along well with him.”
“This is the second time since I’ve moved out of state that we’ve returned to visit and had Susan keep my fur baby. He was too excited when I mentioned her name on the way to her home. I trust Susan explicitly with my 4 year old miniature poodle. She was his first sitter as a puppy and he just loves her, her husband and her two fur babies. You can’t go wrong choosing Susan if you need care for your pups.”
“Molly was very well cared for and because of the many pictures I received I saw how she was pampered. She is a very happy little dog. If/when I need boarding for Molly I will definitely request Hyunbang P.”
“My dog Tako was extremely well taken care of and I got frequent updates. Shanilka was very easy to communicate with and she was very flexible as my travel plans changed due to the weather. I will absolutely be using her again if I ever need!”
“Jennifer and her family did a wonderful job taking care of Gunny. She sent plenty of updates and kept him engaged throughout their time together. We greatly appreciate her thoroughness and care. Would happily rebook for our next trip.”
“This is Kobe’s 2nd time boarding with Kevin and his family! Wonderful hosts, Kobe almost didn’t want to leave and went back in the house to say goodbye :). Will definitely book with Kevin again!”

Helena and Nathan were good communicators, sent photos and were flexible for Bruno's stay. They accepted our last minute request and also helped get his medication from the vet when we were out of town. Would recommend. Bruno seemed to have enjoyed his stay at the house with other dogs.
Karol was a wonderful Rover dog boarder for my boxer Addie. I would rebook with Karol again in the future. She sent photos multiple times a day, plus a video of Addie running outside. Karol is a wonderful communicator and I know Addie had a fun time staying with her. She came home happy and tired.
Mee Jeong truly saved our weekend when she agreed to watch our girls! We had a meet and greet before our set drop off time, and our girls warmed up to her immediately. Her dog, Daisy, was super sweet, and accepted our girls instantly. Through the course of our weekend, Mee Jeong provided daily updates, showing pictures of the walks they were going on, and updates regarding their eating, sleeping, playfulness, and walks. The girls looked ecstatic in every picture that was sent over, and I didn’t think they would want to come home with me! They were properly stimulated, and to the point of driving them home, they napped the entire way. I would be honored to have Mee Jeong watch our girls again!
So caring and a good fit for my dog Teddy. The environment was perfect for my senior little dog. The day before boarding, my little guy broke a toe and was put in a soft cast. Inwas prepared to cancel my trip, but Jennifer stepped up and took the injured guy and I knew and was right he was in good hands. Shared photos daily and comments to keep me at ease while I was out of town. Recommend highly!
As rookie dog owners with a newly adopted pup, Nyla and Corey put us at ease during our week+ trip knowing our pup was going to be in good, experienced hands. We received daily updates of our pup who seemed to have a blast playing with new pup-mates. Next time we need support with our dog, we'll be calling Nyla and Corey. They were also quick to respond before and during our booking.
Very nice, and caring. I felt safe and secure leaving my baby with Roxanna and her family. Bella came back with new extra energy from making a new friend in their dog. Roxanna communicates well and often which was reassuring while I was awhile from my baby. She is great!
Zosha and his partner took such great care of Jefe! We booked last minute and they were so accommodating and sweet about the whole thing. Their communication was amazing the entire time, and I could tell Jefe was in really loving and caring hands. We’d absolutely love to book with them again in the future. I’d definitely recommend them to all fur parents!
Yiting was absolutely amazing. She sent us tons of updates through out Stogie’s stay. She is very knowledgeable about dogs. Our pup is very high energy and is very attached to us, but he had such a great time. He came home tired and well exercised, which is so appreciated after a trip. He had a blast!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Falls Church
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Falls Church on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 7,548 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Falls Church. 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.
94% of Falls Church 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 Falls Church 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 Falls Church 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 Falls Church.
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 Falls Church 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.
