“Karen was warm and friendly with both us and our dog. She sent regular updates while we were away. Our dog must really love Karen because she was barking protectively when I walked up to the door. We look forward to more visits with Karen!”
“We recently moved to the east coast and needed to find new dog sitters. Stephanie, Max, and their dog Callie were amazing! They took such great care of our high energy dog Luke. He had so much fun with them that he didn't want to come back home :( We appreciated the photos and text updates every day! We've already booked them a second time next month. I highly recommend them!”
“Cristen and her family are wonderful to work with. It’s clear they love animals and treat all the dogs that stay with them as their own. Would definitely recommend them!”
“Robin was a lifesaver! She accepted my request booking on very short notice and responded quickly when I reached out for help with my pup, Otis. Otis had a great experience with you & your pups. Thank you for taking him on a 1 mile walk. Sincerely grateful & I highly recommend 👍”
“We can’t say enough about Savannah. She was an absolute godsend for our family. After driving for almost 8 hours and arriving at our hotel at 9 PM on a Friday evening, we found out that their pet friendly policy only applied to dogs. That was a major issue for us since we had brought our dog and our cat with us, sending us into an absolute panic. We sent a message to Savannah and not only did she respond immediately, but she brought us out of our panic by telling us to head right over with our sweet girl. During her time watching our Kitterz, she sent us pictures and updates daily, which let us know we left her in good hands. Going above and beyond, she invited us to visit during our vacation since she knew we were missing our girl. We wish there were more than 5 stars to rate her because she was incredible!”
“Monica and her family were fantastic! Their backyard is amazing! Our dog loved playing with their dogs and was fascinated with their other pets. Monica was great about sending updates and pictures throughout the week. Our dog couldn’t have been happier. We would definitely leave our dog with Monica and her family if we are in the Hampton Roads area again.”
“Alexandra was great! My dog seemed to enjoy his stay and Alexandra sent me updates on how he was doing and even sent me some nice pictures of my pup enjoying their backyard!”
“Suzanne was incredibly flexible with scheduling on short notice and took great care of Juno! She sent multiple photos and messages of Juno with her cats and I would definitely choose Suzanne again if I need a sitter.”
“Shelley was amazing!!!! I was updated on a regular with what my dog was doing and how he was acting. She's extremely kind and gentle and we will be using her and her services again and again!!!!”
“Maggie was wonderful! I reached out to her with a last-minute, overnight boarding request for my two dogs. Not only did Maggie respond quickly and communicate easily, but she was also incredibly accommodating when I needed to modify my drop-off date due to inclement weather. Because we were from out of town, we did not have the opportunity to do a meet-and-greet prior to drop-off. Any worries I may have had about leaving my beloved pups with a stranger completely vanished once I met Maggie. She is warm, personable, kind, and knowledgeable about dogs and dog care. I received adorable pictures of my pups enjoying their time in her home. I will definitely be reaching out to Maggie the next time we are in town!”
“Anna was great! She was sooooo excited to meet little Amelia! She welcomed me into her home and took great care of my little fur baby! I could not have asked for a better sitter. Thank you again, Anna for taking care of Amelia!”
“We can not say enough wonderful things about Tanisha. She is the absolute best! It is so nice to leave town and not have to worry about our boys. Love the photos she sends every day. We know our boys are well taken care of.”
“Such a Blessing to find Lana and Ethan to take care of our Jasper. We could not have found a more Perfect, Loving Family to spoil Jasper while we where on vacation. Jasper loved playing with Tucker and Lana sent lots of updates, videos and pic which made us Smile every time we received them. Everything we needed and wanted for Jasper ….. Lana made it happen! Thks Again Lana and Ethan❤️”
“Watson had a great time for a few days while we had to be out of town for a funeral. He enjoyed playing with the little girl Emily and tried to get extra cookies from her. It is wonderful to have a dog spot away from home with Annabelle and her loving ❤️ dog family.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been my passion. I have hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, pigs, reptiles, birds, and even marine mammals such as dolphins and sea lions. I worked as a veterinary nurse for six years, so I have the knowledge and experience to recognize your pet’s individual needs and provide attentive, compassionate care. Whether your pet is young, senior, energetic, shy, or has special medical needs, you can trust that they will be treated like family while they’re in my care. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment where your pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I currently work remotely and have a flexible schedule to work with you and your pets needs. I can pop in when needed or can be available for pet sitting. Whatever your pet may need I can cater to. Whether it be walks, jogs, feeding, playing, medication administration or even pet sitting, I'm your gal.
“Ashton was very patient with my anxious spaniel and managed to make her feel secure and confident enough to play with her own dog. It was such a relief to know that my dog felt happy, playful, and secure away from home. I’ll certainly call on her in the future for pet sitting and perhaps even playtime for my dog, who now seems eager to make new canine friends. This development has been a real breakthrough for my once-timid and fearful spaniel.”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover, and caring for pets has been a part of my life for years. From playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience, I know how to adjust my care to fit each pet’s personality and needs. I have hands-on experience with feeding, walking, administering medications, crate training, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. Friends and family often rely on me to watch their dogs and cats, and I treat every animal like they’re my own—plenty of cuddles, playtime, and attention included! Whether your pet is full of energy or just enjoys lounging around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for at all times. Pet care is just a natural part of my day. I’m used to building my routine around feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love. I make sure pets get their exercise, attention, and cuddles every single day, because I know how much those little things matter. Each week, I also set time aside for things like brushing, extra play, or whatever makes them happiest. Taking care of animals doesn’t feel like a chore to me — it’s something I truly enjoy and look forward to. I care for pets like they’re part of the family! In my home, they’ll have a safe, cozy space with plenty of love, playtime, and snuggles. In your home, I follow their normal routine so they feel comfortable and cared for—whether that’s walks, meals, meds, or cuddle time. Every pet is unique, and I make sure they get the attention and affection they deserve. 💕🐾

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.
96% of sitters in Hardyville 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 Hardyville 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 Hardyville.
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 Hardyville. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Hardyville 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.
