“Jeleesa and her sweet family took incredible care of my dog, Penny. She asked all the right questions, made sure Penny stuck to her walk and feeding schedule, and sent so many amazing photos and videos. Penny does not trust easily, but within 30 minutes of me dropping her off, she trusted Jeleesa enough to be pet on the stomach! We will definitely be coming back for all of our dog sitting needs.”

“We had a great experience boarding our miniature poodle mix with Eldeen and her lovely family. We could tell Daisey felt right at home when she first arrived. We had a meeting prior to boarding. Eldeen wanted to make sure she knew every need of our pup to have the best possible experience. My 11 year old daughter, my dog's BFF, gave the experience with Eldeen two thumbs up. You could tell Daisey had a good time because before we left she went up to Eldeen and her daughter to give them love. I would recommend them to anyone looking for pet care.”

“Sarah was a wonderful fit for our new fur baby Brinx! Brinx is only 7 weeks old and Sarah treated him as her own! She updated me and sent me pictures of their time together. As a new puppy owner she was kind enough to give me so many pointers when training my little guy. This was my first time using Rover app and i am so happy to have experienced Sarah. She made me feel comfortable and reassured me everything was okay. Highly recommend! I know Brinx can’t wait for our family vacation in June so he can go back and see his second family now!”

She was able to cater to our specific feeding needs, as well as administering medication. We are so lucky to have a puppysitter that treats him with such love and care.”

“Ben & Ariel were absolutely wonderful with Mishka! We’ve used several sitters this year, and this was the first time she came home so clearly happy, relaxed, and genuinely well loved. That alone means everything to us. They kept her active with plenty of walks, gave us terrific updates, and sent lots of photos so we always knew how she was doing. It was obvious they weren’t just watching her—they really cared for her and made her feel at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We will 1000% book with Ben & Ariel again and would recommend them without hesitation. Thank you both for taking such great care of our girl! ❤️🐾”

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 full-time job offers flexibility in my schedule allowing me to work from home 3x/week. I work early hours so that I can have more time available in the afternoons & evenings to spend with family/pets. Having my own home, family, and pets I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy and respectful to take care of your home and precious pets.

About: Always had a pet growing up! My last dog Cody lived to be 18 years young! I know what it’s like to tend with aging furbabies! &I’m not scared to get my hands dirty. 🐱🐶🐦‍⬛🐢🐍🦎🐠🐇🦙🐁🐿️ I work 4-5 hours daily and work directly across the street from home. Your pets needs is my #1 priority! I maintain a clean, safe pet friendly home. I do have a fenced backward if needed, but I enjoy going on walks in the neighborhood or play in the yard.

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have always had them in my life! From taking care of my sister from puppyhood to her golden years to raising doggy fur kiddo’s of my very own, I take pride and honor in respecting each and every dog I meet! I walk my own pug and pomsky 4 times a day, as well as take them to our backyard dog park that’s incredible for play! Both of my own pups are fully vaccinated, well socialized, and are very excited to meet new friends! I am a college student full time with online classes but have a ton of time to pour into animal care and outside time! I cannot wait to see where this adventure goes! I’m a full time college student but my girls are already a big part of my schedule! This semester I have all online courses so am very flexible Aside from outright walking the neighborhood, I have a fully fenced dog park directly behind my house that has a one group policy! Meaning if I’m at the park there is a wait for others vice versa! Our neighborhood is a lovely daily walk as well with many doggy bag stations!

Jeleesa was welcoming, accommodating and wonderful. She was diligent in asking all about Daisy’s routine, likes, dislikes and whatever she needed to make sure she had a great stay. Sent regular updates and was always helpful. Would definitely utilize her services again.

Kristina was absolutely wonderful with Callie and Sylvie! We needed care pretty last minute due to having to travel out of state for a funeral, and she was incredibly accommodating, flexible, and friendly from the start. She went above and beyond to make sure our girls were comfortable, loved, and well taken care of. I was initially a little hesitant about how they would do in a home with multiple kids since they aren’t around smallerchildren very often, but they had no issues whatsoever! They loved all the extra attention from Kristina’s boys and also enjoyed spending time with their dog, Teddy, and even their cat. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Callie and Sylvie were being cared for and treated like part of the family, especially during such a difficult and unexpected trip. We’re very grateful to Kristina and her family for taking such great care of our girls and would absolutely book with her again! 🐾❤️

We loved Joceyln when we first met her. Our dogs took right to her. She watched our Mako while our Lucy was going through treatments. Mako made two great friends Jocelyn and her dog Whiskey. We got updates and pictures and could tell Mako loved his time away. A blessing to know your pet is taken care of while away. We will definitely use Joceyln again! Can’t thank her enough.

Bella was amazing with my anxious dog. She helped him relax by taking him for long trail walks and was great about letting him roam the house instead of using a crate. Great communication, daily photo updates, and very responsive by reaching out and asking questions when she had a concern. My pup came home happy and tired! I will definitely use her again

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Falmouth home-away-from-home, 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 Falmouth.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Falmouth 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 , 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 .

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.
