“Lauryn and her family are such sweet people and Finn loved being with him. He got all the attention he needed and he came home calm I could tell he was comfortable with his caretakers. Their home was very clean and dog friendly. Lauryn was very communicative and I was assured through meaningful pics and texts that Finn was just fine and enjoying his stay. I am so grateful to have found her. Thank you so much for making our boarding experience a great success.”

“Rodney took such great care of our Grady while we were away for a week! Grady is a Velcro-type dog, always wanting to be near his humans & experiences separation anxiety. Rodney sent us pics & reports once to twice a day to assure us Grady was doing well. Took him for lots of walks and gave him lots of attention. So grateful to Rodney for caring for our silly boy and putting our minds at ease so we could fully enjoy our trip!”

“Lyra and Scott, Took great care of Charlie while my husband and I were in Europe. Our Charlie had such a great time with the family, i was not sure if he wanted to come back home!:) . Everyday i received a picture of Charlie on his daily activities. Right before leaving, Lyra and Scott told me to enjoy my vacation and not to worry which was very comforting. When I picked Charlie up he was happy and very playful. I highly recommend Lyra and Scott. I am already making plans to have Charlie stay with Lyra and Scott again. Lyra and Scott Thank You!!”

She wanted to ensure she took care of our furbaby in the same manner as we do & that meant the WORLD to us!!!!! She took the time to ask all the pertinent & important questions and asked if we had any of her as well. She took & sent pics to us keeping us updated regularly.

“What a God send! Janeen is such a kind and caring individual with obvious patience and compassion. She asked all kinds of follow up questions to make sure kitty would be as comfortable as possible in his home away from home. Janeen was very communicative and sent pictures and videos throughout the day every day. The family even moved some items around to allow kitty to climb on and around freely. I wish I lived closer to this wonderful family as I would 100% use their services again. They were thoughtfully accommodating knowing we were already away from home on vacation and even made some suggestions for local activities my family and I could visit. Do not scroll pass this couples profile I highly recommend this home for your pet baby needs.”

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs ever since I was 14. My family relied on me to feed, walk, play, and bathe the animals. I enjoy my time taking care of the pets/animals around me. I am available 24/7 to care for the pets. I have open availability every day of the week and am indoors for majority of those days. I have an animal park at my apartment that they can run around in and a spacious living room if they want to play. I stay close to them to make sure they well taken care of.

Most bookings cost between $28 and $39 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.

100% of sitters in Hayes 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 Hayes 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 Hayes.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Hayes 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.
