“Wonderful, wonderful caretaker of my most precious furbabies! Thanks so much for your flexibility during my hectic work travels!! It's good to know they are in safe and loving hands<3”


“I am so grateful to have found Jackie and Kevin on Rover. Communication was great, and as soon as I met Jackie I knew that Buster and Coco were in loving hands. I received pictures of them snuggling up looking all cozy. Coco is an older dog and needed a little extra care and patience. Jackie didn’t hesitate and she gave her the very best. I had so much comfort and peace of mind during my trip while the dogs were with Jackie and Kevin. I absolutely recommend these sitters! I couldn’t be happier.”

“Constance is great! Our schnauzer was in amazing hands, and he seemed to really love his time there. We will definitely schedule with Constance in the future and refer her to anyon els who may need dog sitter support.”

“Emily was amazing with my cat Juno! She was flexible with scheduling and helped me get Juno into her kennel (easier said than done). Emily also made sure Juno was well fed and gave me an update on how she did during her stay. As a new cat dad, I really appreciated how friendly Emily was!”


“Ashley and Ashley took great care of my pup! Their big back yard, and friendly boxer made my guy’s stay a wonderful time. They sent some fun pictures and made sure he was safe and comfortable while I was out of town.”

“Tameka was an amazing caregiver for my two weenie dogs! I was so happy to be able to keep them together in a lovely home environment. Tameka was very attentive to my dogs needs and provided me with lots of updates and cute photos. Thank you Tameka!”


“Our 130-pound Great Dane didn't scare these dog lovers! Banner had a great time and, with lots of pictures while we were away, we trusted that he was in great care!”

“Milena was great! She treated my boy like one of her own. She was communicative and sent lots of pictures as I was initially anxious about leaving him. Thank you so much for treating him well! We will be booking with her again!”

“This was the first time I’ve traveled for any significant time away and had to leave my dog with someone that wasn’t family. So I was nervous. I knew I didn’t want to board him at a facility, and decided to check out Rover. I found Jessica pretty quickly. She made me and Jayce feel very comfortable. I loved that she sent several updates and photos throughout the day because I missed my Velcro boy so much while I was away. He was definitely well cared for and very worn out when we got home because all he did was happily nap off and on the rest of the day.”

“Thank you for taking such good care of my baby. Loving the daily report cards. Anyone looking for a doggy sitter, Brandy comes highly recommended. Daily videos and photos were great. Thank you so much.”

“Monica was great with my baby boy! She has a beautiful home and took very good care of him for a week! She was flexible with me and sent regular updates. Elliot loved playing with her two dogs!”

“Deidre did a wonderful job watching my two cats while I was in the middle of moving. Her experience with pets and cats specifically gave me peace of mind. She took great care of our cats and provided regular updates and photos. I would definitely recommend Deidre and would happily use her again!”

“Teona and Louelyn were fantastic with my Boston Terriers, Logan and Rocket. They provided regular updates and photos, and made sure the dogs had playtime in their fenced yard three times a day. Their genuine love for animals and top-notch service made me feel confident and at ease. Highly recommend!”

“Tashaun was great with our two poodles while my SO and I spent the weekend attending a wedding in the area. He provided great pictures of the pups enjoying themselves and as wiped as they were when we picked them up, we know they loved playing with his energetic pup throughout the weekend.”

“Joseph took wonderful care of our dog Mattie. He sent us pictures and kept us updated throughout and was also very flexible when we needed to add an extra day unexpectedly. Highly recommend!”

“Lora was very sweet and took very good care of our Rottweiler. We were very hesitant because of a previous experience with another sitter but she was reassuring and sent frequent updates. She is very experienced and has a great routine that ensured our dog got all his energy out. Highly recommend!”

“Another great stay with lots of updates and photos! Cassandra worked with me last minute to not only watch them but then to allow me to add on additional days. I never have to worry about them knowing they are in great hands! Thank you”

“Tug absolutely loved Kristy and her family! Kristy took such great care of our little boy! She provided daily photo updates and we are very thankful for her quick responses, her love and dedication to dog care truly are unmatched! If I could give her ten stars I would!”

Our dog was so happy to see Lauryn again. It is obvious how much he loves spending time with her, and we’re incredibly grateful for how sweet and attentive she is with him. She sent tons of pictures and videos, which made us feel completely at ease knowing he was happy and doing great while we were away.

Mariah was very friendly and the booking went well. She said Jasper was a very good guest and Jasper was taken care of. Jasper came home in a good mood and was playful and seemed to have had a good time. We will use Mariah again next time We travel. Thank you, Mariah.

Luisa & her husband and kids all gave my dog so much attention and love! They even sent us home with her favorite chew toy from while she was there. Luisa is a great listener, asks good questions, is very thorough, and genuinely cares about the pups. We will definitely book again with Luisa when the opportunity arises.

Lauren and Andrew took such wonderful care of our Lily and Jack Jack ! Lauren sent pictures and messages throughout the whole stay and they were happy and content ! They spent the holiday in their cozy and loving home ….We’re thankful to have found you and will be booking again !

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 Fort Eustis 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 Fort Eustis 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 Fort Eustis.
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 Fort Eustis. On Rover:
- 87% 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 Fort Eustis 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.
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.
