“Our German Shepherd had a wonderful time with Jhonathan! He was very tired after playing all day. Jhonathan is wonderful about sending pictures and updates throughout the day. Highly recommend!”
“My pup had a great time at Russ's house! She came back super tired from playing with the other dogs. Russ sent me several updates throughout the day, which I really loved. Drop off and pick up was super easy- I will be using Russ again!”
“Jennifer was amazing and helped me out last minute when another rover sitter cancelled! She was super responsive and Spike enjoyed spending the day with her and Louis :) I would definitely book again!”
About: My first two rescues were Rottweilers my third and only child is the child that my mom blessed me with. She is a needy, loving girl but high energy so I’ve dealt with everything from couch potato to high Strong lovely I work from home and my height energy baby is used to go out multiple times a day and she is great with any dog she needs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I am very active walking them in the neighborhood and we will always make time to go out. We are sidekick and we go walking together, dog parks together, but also she has not ever met a dog that she doesn’t love. Even those in the neighborhood that don’t get along with others love her. I do not have kids, but my nieces who are 5 to 9 or around her often so she is great with them, but I also understand those that don’t want their dog around kids so I will not bring them around them if they are uncomfortable.
About: I had two dogs growing up (Snowball and Mocha) and in recent years, have dog sat for friends, friends, and for Rover clients. It's rewarding and super fun for me! I enjoy the long walks in my neighborhood (I live in an awesome neighborhood for that) and lots of cuddles/belly rubs with the dogs I am sitting! I work from home most of the week and have plenty of time during the day for neighborhood strolls/walks with my rover pups. I love going for walks to take a break so would take the dog out at least 3 or 4 times a day with me. My husband and I live in a 2 bedroom/2 floor condo with a balcony. The dog would have access to the first floor. We have hard wood floors, a ton of really great light and are on the 3rd floor. There are no elevators in this building. We have a ton of neighbors who have dogs, an elementary school near by with a nice track/green space, and lots of side walk space for walks.
“Nina was great! We were on vacation and had a last minute change of plans. Nina responded quickly to our inquiry and was able to accommodate us last minute. She took great care of Shadow! I would use her again if we’re ever back in DC ?”
“My dog had an amazing time and I am so appreciative that he was able to accommodate my last minute booking. Absolutely loved the photos and videos, and the fast communication. Will definitely book again!”
“We had an amazing experience! Fabulous communication, a wonderful setting for dogs to play, and one successfully exhausted pup. Thank you so much for welcoming Poppy into your community.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs since I was very young, and caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have a pug, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like walking, feeding, bathing, and giving lots of love and attention. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to look after their pets, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m currently a nursing student on break, and most of my classes during the semester are online. This means I’m home full-time on all non-clinical days and have plenty of time to give your pets my full attention. My schedule is very flexible, so I’m available most days for walks, drop-ins, and boarding. Safety is always my top priority. I grew up with dogs and currently have a sweet pug, so I’m very comfortable handling pets of all sizes and personalities. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and I always make sure dogs are supervised, fed on schedule, and kept in a safe environment. I’m happy to crate your dog if needed, follow any routines you prefer, and give your pup plenty of love and attention while you’re away.
“Jona was amazing with Caruso who is a very shy dog and has separation anxiety. She made him feel very comfortable within a few minutes of our arrival and he responded to her quickly. He usually backs away from strangers and hides behind me but she was able to establish a rapport with him quickly by sitting on the floor and talking to him until he became comfortable enough to let her pet him.”
“Erin is amazing with my shy and nervous dog! She clearly has a handle on “reading the room” with a dog and has great dog behavior instincts. On top of that- extremely responsive and professional!”
“Ann and Rick made my dog Winnie feel right at home and took great care of her during our recent very long day first visit. I received reports and photos during the day, which I very much appreciated. Even though we had done a successful meet and great beforehand and Winnie trotted into their house with only a brief look back, they felt she was a bit nervous and adjusted her day accordingly. I look forward to future bookings.”
“Jessica took amazing care of Luna. She was communicative during her stay, sending me photos and letting me know how she was doing. This was very reassuring when using a new pet sitter. Luna also took a liking to her and we look forward to booking again with her.”
“Asia has been amazing. She is very flexible with her doggy daycare scheduling, and is awesome with animals. Carmelo, my dog, loves going there, he loves playing with her dogs and the other dogs. He loves running and playing in her large backyard, a plus for us, since we reside in a condo. Carmelo has been going for two months, I feel at ease when he's there. Asia sends me pictures and responds to me in a timely manner. I highly recommend her doggy daycare.”
“We met Linda, Leo and Fred and instantly felt at ease! She was so warm, kind and genuine. Leo and Fred were both welcoming and friendly towards Pinot. They played so well and Pinot was well taken care of. Thank you!!!”
“Kind, accommodating and extremely gentle. My dog misses her instantly and she will always be the person to care for him. She sends pictures and videos and truly is remarkable. Highly recommended”
“Adriana has been an amazing sitter for Rosie! Rosie is always excited to see her, which gives me peace of mind whenever I leave her in Adriana’s care. She is responsible, reliable, and incredibly accommodating, and I always know Rosie will be well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
“I always get nervous leaving my 1 year old pup with someone new, but Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful and exceeded all my expectations. I could tell immediately that she’s a dog person, and she sent me tons of updates throughout the day. I’m so grateful for her and will be booking again next time I need daycare!”

Jennifer was wonderful with Belle! Usually Belle is a bit apprehensive, but she warmed up from the start. Jennifer was very reassuring and attentive. She took Belle for multiple walks and kept me updated on her progress. She had a ton of toys, which Belle loved. I would definitely use her again.
My senior pup had such a great daycare day with Emmanuel, he came home tired, happy, and completely content. Emmanuel even sent me photos throughout the day, which I really appreciated. We’re now looking forward to the upcoming longer stay and feel very comfortable knowing he’ll be in good hands. Highly recommended!
Megan was absolutely amazing with Percy and Pico during their doggy daycare stay! She took such great care of them, kept us updated throughout the day, and sent plenty of photos so we could see how much fun they were having. It was clear they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such great hands. We would absolutely book with Megan again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter!
I needed to find a sitter while traveling to VA for the 4th of July - Christin is a wonderful communicator, and even without the opportunity for a meet and greet I felt very at ease about having Felix stay with her. She was very understanding and flexible with my fluctuating schedule, she and her husband were both very helpful in making Felix feel comfortable when we first arrived, and I had total confidence that he would be well cared for during his stay with her (and he was 😊)!!
Paula was an exceptional rover! I had a last minute daycare request the evening prior and she accommodated for an early drop off. She gave my dog tons of exercise throughout the day which Miley loves, sent pics, and even gave fitness stats of the walks. My dog seemed content and received a take home treat when i picked her up. I recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Groveton commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 5,019 sitters in Groveton, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
