“Ellysia is the best! My pups had the greatest time with her and her family. Updated daily with pictures and activities. We will definitely be using her again and recommend her hands down.”
“Amanda was amazing. Couldn’t ask for better person to leave our little Scarlet with. Scarlet didn’t want to eat so Amanda shared her dinner with her. Scarlet got lonely at night so Amanda slept beside her on the couch. She treated Scarlet like part of the family. Will definitely use her every time we get away.”
“Kaitlin was awesome. She took our dog on short notice, over a busy week. Really appreciative of her taking her on such short notice. Sent pictures often, and let us know how she was doing. Our dog was nervous in a strange home, but she was understanding of that.”
“Kelsey took very good care of my doggie. She provided updates throughout the day and my lil doggie looked so calm and content. I would definitely recommend Kelsey. ☺️”
“We were incredibly anxious to leave our Dharma puppy. She has never been without us since joining our family at 10 weeks. But we had to go out of town and Lisa was extremely communicative, she sent pictures, and reassured us every chance she got. We are really happy and highly recommend Lisa.”
“This was the longest time I've been away from my pup and Michelle did another amazing job. He always looks like he's having the best time with Milo and I appreciate all the updates and pictures they send! So happy to have found a great sitter for my boy!”
“Madelyn took excellent care of my dog Link and provided me with consistent updates so that I knew he was in good hands. I chose her to board him while I was away for the holidays, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to do the same. I could tell he was treated as if she was his own. Thank you!”
“Ayme was great! Great communication, several photos of our dog, and flexible when we needed help due to the weather and a flight delay. Took great of our dog”
“Amy did a great job with our two dogs overnight for several days. She lets the dogs hang out in her home, perfect for those not used to crates or traditional boarding. There are always lots of other dogs to play with and she sends lots of pictures!”
“Cindy did a great job with Lola. She sent photos every day and was flexible on pick up and drop off. Lola was clearly happy and relaxed, even though she can get stressed in new places. Highly recommend!”
“Star’ visit was just as great as the first time. All went perfectly smoothly and Star appeared to thoroughly enjoy her stay. I was at ease knowing she was being well taken care of.”
“Jesse has done a wonderful job taking care of my 7 year old Samoyed! He provides good photo updates, his dogs are friendly, and drop-off/pick-up is always easy. I would highly recommend, and look forward to using his services again in the future.”
“Daved did a wonderful job with our puppy! Great communication and he was well cared for on his stay. We'll definitely be using his services again soon!”
“Shannon was wonderful! She provided so much love for our pitbull, Jaxon. She sent us updates and pictures. He played, snuggled, and really seemed to have enjoyed himself. Shannon's compliments and messages really put my and my husband's hearts at ease. Will definitely use her in the future.”
“My baby had a GREAT stay, thank you so much! They also were more than happy to keep him an extra night LAST MINUTE! Super appreciative of that! Definitely booking again!?”
“Wow!! Could not be any happier. Miss Kim went “above & beyond” in every aspect of caring for our 8 Mo old Basset for a week. She is a true dog whisperer. Gave us some good advice as well due to her experience. Will definitely look her up in the future. Mac was super happy, super clean and had a great week. We used a kennel in the past and it didn’t work out so well. Thank you so very much.”
“Cameron absolutely loved his stay at Allejah’s home. She stayed in close contact with us and gave Cameron the best possible care. We are so thankful to have found her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hopewell
It is always a pleasure, leaving my babies with Christine if I ever need any modifications or if I’m running late, she always accommodating. I highly highly recommend using her. My dogs are always happy. She keeps me updated and says me daily pictures and I only book with her if she’s available.
The absolute best place to leave your dog. Everything exceeded my expectations. Roxana and her husband are very kind and lovely people who truly love animals. I knew from the meet and greet that my dog, Pepper would be in excellent hands and that their home would be a home away from home. I also loved getting all the updates from Roxana, that really helped put me at ease that Pepper was happy and having fun. Overall, while in the area, Roxana will be the only babysitter I plan on using from now on. Thank you again so much!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Hopewell is $31 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $47 per night. On Rover, 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.

As of October 2026, there are 804 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hopewell. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Hopewell 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 Hopewell 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 Hopewell.
<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 Hopewell 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.
