“John is great! He kept my dog at his house for about a week while I was out of town. It’s so much better than boarding my dog at a kennel. John took him on several walks each day and even let him sleep on his couch. I believe my dog had it better at John’s house than at mine! John is also good about providing daily updates.”
“Theresa took excellent care of Lucy. Very happy with our experience and would totally have our dog stay there again. She was enthusiastic of a meet in greet, wanted to learn about our dog, accommodated refrigerated food, very communicative throughout the stay, and Lucy seemed very happy there! Thanks so much, Theresa!”
“Taco had such a great time playing with his new friends at Shannon’s house! Shannon was always very quick to respond and shared pictures. Taco was very well cared for!”
“Super thoughtful and communicative, great environment that I felt comfortable leaving Griffey in. He seemed to have a good time meeting new dogs and having new experiences in a safe environment.”
“Ashley is absolutely amazing! She is so kind, easy to work with, and loves dogs. Ashley made sure to send us pictures of our dog while we were away, and my dog was genuinely smiling and happy to be there! We appreciated the huge backyard, too. Definitely recommend using Ashley and we will be rebooking again!”
“Shawn was wonderful! She kept me updated throughout the entire stay. My pups were very comfortable and happy during their stay. I would choose Shawn every time to watch my pups, they had an amazing time! I didn’t have to worry about my dogs once while they were in Shawn’s care!”
“5 stars isn't enough for Susan and Ken! Kuma was treated like royalty the entire weekend. What blew me away was their incredible communication—even when I was off the grid with zero service, they kept me completely in the loop. They truly put their heart into pet care. If you want total peace of mind while you're away, book Susan and Ken immediately!”
“Abigail went above and beyond in her care for our Lola! I think Lola enjoyed her visit very much, as it felt like Lola was missing Abigail and Cleo the day we brought her home. 🙂 Thank you for such great care!”
“David was awesome with our very high energy, sometimes challenging, yet sweet Calvin. David sent us reports and pictures every day which made our trip that much more relaxing and put our minds at ease. We couldn't be more grateful to David and his excellent care of our boy while we were on the road. We recommend David 100% and hope to call on him again. Thank you, David!”
“She's definitely easy to communicate with. Left my kitty cat with her last Thanksgiving and she welcomed with open arms. I'm sure my baby had fun with her. Thanks for having her!”
“Kimberly was lovely to work with. She was very attentive and in tune with the needs of my fur babies even when my eldest was super anxious - she accommodated him marvelously and handled it with utmost grace. Kimberly took lots of photos and kept me posted throughout each day/evening. She had fun activities for them to do, provided quality grooming and overall gave them the mini vacay away from home that they needed with a little goodie bag for the road. I will definitely use her services again!”
“Katie and her family were very welcoming when we did the meet and greet. It gave us a lot of confidence in leaving our dog with them for a week! She was very communicative and sent us photos. We would definitely use her again!”
“Candace was a great sitter! Her parents were helpful as well. Cassie was in good hands and was well taken care of. We were so thankful they accommodated us picking up Cassie after our evening flight.”
“Marah was incredible with our Bernese Mountain Dog, as always. Highly recommend this sitter. We’ve used her for 4 years now and our pup never wants to leave! We appreciate the large yard, friendly dog loving sitter and the pictures while we’re away from him. Thank you, Marah!”
“This was our second booking with Rover and again we were VERY pleased with our Sophie’s stay. They loved her as we do and incorporated her into their family! They kept us updated with many pictures of her stay which was very comforting when you leave your beloved pet. We would definitely recommend this sitter and will rebook them when in the area again. A plus rating from us and Sophie!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hardy on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 217 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hardy. 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.
96% of Hardy 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 Hardy 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 Hardy 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 Hardy.
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 Hardy 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.
