“Three visits in, and Mrs. Crystal continues to exceed our expectations. She’s attentive, consistent, and truly understands Jaxon’s needs. We always receive thoughtful updates, and Jaxon comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. It gives us real peace of mind knowing he’s with her on a staycation lol😃 So grateful we found her on Rover, highly recommend! Thank you ❤️”
“I would absolutely recommend Teona!! On multiple occasions, she has kept my dog for extra days due to travel changes. She is extremely responsive, professional, and caring. She sends pictures and updates every day. My dog always has a great time at her home and comes home happy! 5 STARS!!!!”
“Rodney is amazing! He took good care of our sweet standard poodle while we were out of town. Very responsive and friendly. My dog had the best days while staying with him. Highly recommend him!”
“Savannah was absolutely amazing with my dog. She was very responsive and sent me daily photos and texts to let me know how my fur baby was doing. Her farm is perfect for dogs and she took them on walks around the walking paths.”
“Kristy was awesome! She sent an adorable video of our dogs playing together and assured me my dog was settling in just fine. I was very anxious leaving my baby with someone else for the first time but would 100% book with Kristy again. My dog had the best time! Thank you so much Kristy!”
“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.”
“The best sitters! Words can’t even describe how amazing they are. Simba had the time of his life and was introduced to a bunch of stimulating activities. They were active with him even with the freezing temps and he loved getting human cuddles like he does at home. They are highly experienced dog lovers and I never have to worry when Simba stays with them! Can’t wait for his next stay!”
“Dickson and Maria were great hosts. Their dog was well behaved and played well with Barkley. We had a situation where I had to pick him up earlier than planned and they were able to accommodate. I appreciated their flexibility. Thank you!”

“Absolutely recommend! My senior girl can get really anxious when I leave, especially with someone new, and she settled in with George and his family right away. She stayed almost a week for her first stay and it went amazing. Tons of walks, pets, treats, and cuddles, plus George kept me updated the whole time with plenty of pictures. I was able to actually relax and enjoy my trip, and I'll definitely be booking them again!”

She sent me pictures and a little update almost everyday, and I'm almost certain my fur baby wasnt ready to come home lol She also gave her a bath and a pawpicure before she brought her home, which was a real treat and bonus! I would defn trust Monica again to watch my Nina:)”

“I read the Brandy’s reviews and was impressed but because this was my first time leaving my dog I was nervous. Brandy was exceptionally great. I got daily updates with pictures and videos. I felt so comfortable after the first night I will use you always for my fur baby. She communicated with me before she gave her anything other than treats and I was very pleased. My fur baby had a great time because the next day after I picked her up she slept lol. Thank you Brandy for doing a great job with my precious cargo (Hennicey).”

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.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Jamestown is $31 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $35 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Jamestown 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 Jamestown 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 Jamestown.
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 Jamestown. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 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 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.
