“Wiggly loves vacations with Christine, and we don't worry about our dog when we are out of town as Christine gives us updates and photos. Wiggly enjoys the large fenced yard and most of all, she likes playing with the other canine clients in the home!”

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!”
“Sush looked after our mini Goldendoodle for 10 days while we were out of the country. She was incredibly communicative and responsive, often sending photos and giving us updates along the way.

“Juniper had a great time staying with Isabelle for a week, and I will be booking her again! It was wonderful to know Juniper was being treated as a family member.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Falls Church
Our dog Jea received exceptional care. Roxanna provided clear communication, reliability, and genuine compassion. Daily pictures, timely walks, and attention to Jea’s specific needs made the entire experience stress-free. Jea returned home well-exercised, content, and clearly bonded with Roxanna. I highly recommend Roxanne to anyone seeking top-tier pet care. We’ll definitely be coming back to her. Thank you, Roxanna!
From the moment we met Ellie, I knew he would be in loving hands. She truly went above and beyond in every way. She spoiled him with plenty of playtime and home made treats (Taro's favorite- he approved 100% pawcent) and gave him so much love and attention throughout his stay. The photo updates meant so much to me. Seeing Taro so happy, relaxed, and enjoying himself made being away so much easier. When I picked Taro up, he was happy, healthy, and so well cared for. I am so incredibly grateful for the love and care she gave him and so happy to have found her on Rover. Knowing I now have someone I can trust with my pup is priceless, and I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their dog as if they were her own!
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for our sweet Merlin. She was incredibly loving from the very first day — you could just tell how much she genuinely cared for him. She went above and beyond by planning tons of fun activities, keeping him happy, active, and engaged the whole time we were away. The regular photo updates she sent were such a thoughtful touch — it was so reassuring to see him having the best time, whether he was out exploring or just relaxing. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands and never once worried about him while traveling. She’s an absolute gem and we will absolutely be booking her again for future trips. Highly, highly recommend! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Merlin!
Colleen and Sean watched Hazel for a last-minute trip to Philadelphia. They were perfect hosts and took wonderful care of her. They're a lovely family, they sent pictures and updates during her stay, and they were very flexible with drop-off and pick-up. Perfect experience all around.
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.
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.
