“Elizabeth was my first sitter using Rover and she will be my go-to from now on! She took great care of my love and sent lots of photos while I was away. I'm very grateful to have found Elizabeth!”
“Lauren is an amazing sitter. My dog Molly has so much fun staying at her place playing with her dog Bentley. I don’t have to worry about Molly because I know she’s in good hands.”
“We are so glad to find Jodee and Aj! Very caring and attentive sitters who made sure to update us. They took the time to learn about Bear and make sure they made his stay alittle vacation ✨ Definitely recommend Jodee and AJ!”
“Hajar was really nice and communicative. My dog Klio had a great time. I could tell she treated Klio like her own and Hajar was flexible with pick up and drop off times. Would recommend!”
“Francise is the absolute best all around: communication, photos, flexibility, and most importantly, the best care for Monty, who loves her. She can handle his reactive leash walking too, which gives me peace of mind. This is the second time we’ve used her and will do so again!”
“Del had a great stay with Shane while we were away on vacation. He was communicative with updates and Del happily played with other pups all week. She came home happy. Will definitely book with Shane again. Thanks!”
“Andy graciously boarded my dog Marble during the holidays. He was always prompt with communication, attentive, detailed, and sent pictures every day, so I knew my dog was well taken care of. Marble came back happy (with a washed blanket courtesy of Andy!) and I could not have been more grateful. Would board with Andy again in a heartbeat!”
“Karen was amazing & accommodating! My flight returning was delayed and she was flexible & communicative! She kept me up to date when plenty of pictures! 10/10! Highly recommended! Thank you Karen!”
“Aisha was excellent and I will certainly use her again!! Blanche thoroughly enjoyed her stay and Aisha kept me updated with lots of photos of my sweet girl while I was away! Aisha was also very thorough with gathering information about Blanche before our stay and she even had a large crate for Blanche to use while she was there so I didn't have to lug my own crate in. This was such a help because the crate and all of the other things that come with an overnight stay can be a lot! I look forward to booking a weekend with Aisha again soon!”
“Nadia, Benjamin and their sweet boys always do a good job taking care of Gracie. She gets plenty of walks and she loves their backyard. She’s always relaxed and happy when she comes home.”
“This was the first time we left our 5 month old puppy with a dog sitter. Leah took great care of Cooper and he didn't seem to want to leave when we picked up!! He is still getting used to other dogs and people & Leah was very patient with him. Highly recommend Leah!”
“Alyce took excellent care of our dog. She was great to have us over for a meet-up prior to the stay, was very interested in getting to know our older dog's specific needs and was easy to work with. She sent daily pics / videos and a full rundown when we picked up. Highly recommend.”
“Byamba and family did a great job watching Banjo for us, communicating throughout his stay, and sending us pictures daily. We appreciate them helping us in a quick bind! They were very kind, walked Banjo twice a day, and spoiled him!”
“Veronica was very quick to respond and provided a nice backyard with plenty of other friends for Peanut to play with. Peanut settled in quickly and clearly had a blast. We loved seeing the pictures of Peanut playing in the backyard.”
“Jasmine and Stormi were great with Roxy. Roxy was transitioning between dog foods during her stay and Jasmine handled it like a pro. I would highly recommend Jasmine for your next trip.”
“Anne Marie took such great care of Danny, she was patient and kind to him as a senior dog and just loved on him! I will definitely be asking Anne Marie to care for him again when I need it.”
“Krista and Kira are WONDERFUL! Clearly great dog lovers and were so sweet with our senior tripod. He was clearly so happy and relaxed with them and that made being away stress free! Thank you SO MUCH!”
“Our baby stayed with Vicent for a week. He sent numerous pictures and videos. We specially loved the one on Valentine's Day. He is so thoughtful and loving towards Maggie May. We will definitely have him watch over our beloved puppy again <3”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Myer
Tien was amazing! I had to go out of town for a 3-day of work trip and at the last minute my regular sitter got the flu and I had to scramble that morning trying to find someone else to keep my dog with just a couple hours before my train left. She jumped in last minute and she even picked up and drop off Maya, which was an absolute lifesaver! Tien took very good care of my fur baby and I will definitely be using her again.
Sunny took incredible care of our dog Huxley. She provided him with lots of love, tons of activity, and a safe environment. Sunny is very professional and clearly invested in providing good care, including medication and the demanding grooming requirements of a Doodle. We were able to book last minute, as well as organize pick-up and drop-off. We will definitely look to book Sunny again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dog!!
Ewelina was amazing with Remy. She took the time to meet our pup a few days before drop off and was so patient with her timidness. Throughout the weekend Ewelina kept us updated on how Remy was doing and sent some super cute pictures. We definitely recommend her, trust her, and would use her again!
5⭐️ Petcare! Stefanie and Emmanual were incredible from beginning to end. Great coordination and communication for a pre-stay meet & greet to confirm compatibility and meet their fur baby. They asked all the right questions upfront, have a super convenient location and provided me with the sweetest regular updates to show my pup was right at home with their family. I couldn’t be any happier with the level of care they provided my baby girl while I traveled. She came home super happy and I felt such peace of mind knowing she was in a loving home. Looking forward to the next stay!
Jaylyn is one of the BEST sitters I've ever had to board my dog Piper!! From the start, she had great communication- was flexible, accommodating to shifting drop off and pick up times, and quick to respond. She asked thoughtful questions and was eager to get to know my dog. Then, she took such great care of Piper: taking her on long walks, to the dog park, and giving treats for tricks. Piper was actually sad to leave Jaylyn which was a first for her! I highly recommend Jaylyn as a sitter and we'll be using her services again for sure!

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 Fort Myer 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 Fort Myer.
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 Fort Myer 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.
