“Paul and Terri were absolutely amazing! They offered great communication, gave extra care and attention to our allergy pup, sent pictures throughout the day, and were flexible with drop-off/pick-up timing as we traveled out of state. They have more than enough outdoor space for pups to play safely. They were attentive to our pups needs, limiting outdoor time when too hot. I could tell by the pictures shared that our pup was happy and comfortable while in their care. Thank You Guys!!”
“Lauryn loved on our pup like it was her own! She sent us pictures and videos while we were gone for vacation. He came back so happy! We had complete peace of mind while away! High recommend ❤️”
“Lyra, Scott and family were so welcoming and loving to my pup/baby, Mason. I’ve had a dog sitter for 6 years of this life back in Florida so finding someone that I can trust totally with his care was so very important to me since moving to Williamsburg. I got regular updates with pictures which was reassuring and felt comforted for the 7 days I was out of town. We will definitely be using them again for my next trip”
“Robin is Absolutely amazing!! Sweet and loving to me and to my baby Teddy! She kept checking in and letting me know how he was doing. I felt like I made a friend in her. I highly recommend her and will use her again and again! I've already referred her to my friend!”
“We boarded our cockapoo with Jared for 6 nights. Our dog loves people and is very interactive and playful, with high energy, so we wanted a sitter who would be good with him. Jared turned out to be a good match. He was easy going and attentive to Griffin’s needs. Jared communicated with us well and sent pictures of Griffin almost daily to let us know how he was doing. We would highly recommend Jared and will book another stay for Griffin in the future.”
“Another amazing experience! We always feel comfortable and at ease when our Lola is boarding with Omaira & Isaac! Lola deserved a fun day with her new doggie friends while we had plans and we can tell she enjoyed and was comfortable! Thank you again! 😁”
“Riley had the best time over the weekend playing with Walter and getting all of the cuddles! Amanda was so flexible and did a wonderful job keeping us updated about Riley’s stay with plenty of pictures. It was comforting to know he was in great hands during our weekend away.”
“Love Ms. Crystal. Elsa did so good for her. Side sent plenty pictures to keep me informed and I couldn’t be more thankful to know my baby was in great hands. Thank you again. Will be using her services again in the future.”
“Teona and Louelyn are the best!! Our dog is blind and needs extra care. They made sure he became familiar with his surroundings and knew where his bowls were located. I especially loved the photos and videos that were sent during the day showing how happy he was. We had full confidence in their caregiving. Would definitely recommend!”
“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!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were very impressed with Caitlin and Andrew. We have never left our dog with any one other than family, so this was a huge step for us. We were able to do a meet and greet before our vacation and our Irish doodle loved Caitlin and her 3 kids right from the start. They gave him lots of tummy rubs and kept him entertained the whole week. Caitlin and the whole family made us feel so comfortable. They posted pictures of him playing and her kids loving on him every day! She was even quick to notice his ears were waxy, sent me a picture of them, and cleaned them and put in ear drops with the instructions we provided. We will definitely use Caitlin again and it was extra nice to be their only client for the week so he got extra love and attention!”
“Maggie and her family were wonderful! My dog Millie stayed with them over the Thanksgiving holiday and when I picked her up I could tell how much fun she had! Maggie sent updates multiple times a day with photos included. Millie had the best time-- would highly recommend trusting Maggie with your pup!”
“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!”
“I am so grateful to have found Jackie and Kevin on Rover. Communication was great, and as soon as I met Jackie I knew that Buster and Coco were in loving hands. I received pictures of them snuggling up looking all cozy. Coco is an older dog and needed a little extra care and patience. Jackie didn’t hesitate and she gave her the very best. I had so much comfort and peace of mind during my trip while the dogs were with Jackie and Kevin. I absolutely recommend these sitters! I couldn’t be happier.”
“I love the fact that Constance arranges a meet and greet prior to the stay to make sure my baby is comfortable. He thoroughly enjoyed his stay! Sweetest family and pets ever!”
“Sent plenty of pics, bought treats and took great care of my big boy. Very informative, knowledgeable about dog care. Definitely will be sending my dog to her anytime she's available”
“Dickson and Mily were great with my babies. I was nervous about leaving them with a bigger dog but they assured me that they knew their dog and that they'd all be playing in no time. Sure enough, after about an hour I was sent a video of my dogs getting along with theirs. The entire time I was gone I got many updates, videos and pictures; it looked like my dogs were on vacation! Dickson and Mily really love dogs and treated my dogs like family. They also picked them up and dropped them off which made my busy life so much easier!”
“Melissa was great ! All paws up here. She truly went above and beyond; she sent us daily updates on our Fancy (pictures and descriptions of her day) so we always knew how she was doing. Will definitely be booking with her again for our next vacation.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Jamestown
We are traveling through the area and needed a sitter while we visited Colonial Williamsburg for the day. Caitlyn, Andrew and their children gave Hank so much love and attention I don’t think he even noticed we were gone. Caitlyn sent updates and pics - we could tell he was having the best day. When we are back in the area we will definitely reach out for all our pet boarding needs!
Paul & Terri, their family and their cats took exceptional care of our two pugs, 14 yo Molly and 7 yo Sunshine. Molly doesn't see or hear much anymore, so we were a bit worried about her, going in, but she seemed to form a kind of fun relationship with Bear, Paul & Terri's cat. We failed to provide enough food for the duration, so Paul & Terry went to the store and bought some rather than feeding the dogs something else withouht telling us. Very nice, thoughtful people. We'll definitely look them up again when we travel!
Jeff & Megan were awesome boarders for our dog. Their home was a perfect family haven for our pooch. Their children and pets openly accepted our pet. They provided frequent updates on how things were going and on any issues. We were extremely pleased with their service. I highly recommend them to take care of your dog if you’re looking for in home boarding.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Jamestown 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 Jamestown.
<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 Jamestown 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.
