About: Welcome to our home! We’re a fun, loving family with two elementary-aged kids and our friendly Bernedoodle, who loves having furry friends around. Our family has been used to having furry friends for a long time. I’m a teacher and my husband is a travel soccer club director, so our home is active, family-oriented, and full of love. We’re used to busy days, lots of playtime, walks, and plenty of attention! Our Bernedoodle is playful, social, and loves making new friends. We’d love to welcome your pup into our family while they’re with us and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. We enjoy getting outside for walks and playtime and are happy to keep your dog on their normal routine as much as possible. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or enjoys a more relaxed pace, we’ll give them the care and attention they need. We know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone you trust. Our goal is for every dog who stays with us to have a happy, safe, and fun stay!🐶❤️ A Typical Day in Our Home 🐾 Our home has a nice balance of structure, activity, and plenty of attention for our four-legged guests. I’m a full-time teacher, so I’m at work during the school day, but I’m home after school and have afternoons and evenings to spend with the dogs. My husband has a flexible schedule and typically doesn’t start work until around 10:00 AM and is home by about 3:00 PM. This means your pup won’t be alone for long stretches of time, and there is someone around during much of the day. Our mornings are busy with getting the kids ready for school, but we make time for potty breaks, breakfast, and some attention before everyone heads out. Once the kids are home from school, things become more active! We enjoy walks, outdoor play, and spending time together as a family. We live in the gated community of Fords Colony, so the walking paths for your pup are perfect and safe. Your pup will get plenty of attention, playtime, and opportunities to relax throughout the afternoon and evening. We’re happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, potty, and medication routines as closely as possible. Our goal is to make their stay feel comfortable, safe, and as much like home as possible!
“Maggie was delightful!!! Sami had a fantastic visit with Maggie and her family. Maggie provided lots of photos and updates. Couldn’t ask for more. Thank you Maggie!”
“Allison is confident and understanding when handling our dog reactive pittie. He really enjoyed his stay with her and I had peace of mind knowing we could leave him with someone as knowledgable as her in dog behavior, that also understands his needs for attention and comfort. We're new to Virginia and so relieved to have found her!”
“Laneise made boarding with her so easy. She was so chill and flexible about drop off and pick up during the hectic holiday and that helped a lot! Our dogs loved being at her house and felt right at home. She has a lot of experience with animals and grooming so that is a huge plus! We are so thankful to have found her and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“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!”
“Zulema came to us super happy. She got home & slept all day! So I can tell she had tons of fun & was taken care of! Abby is an excelent communicator & made sure to send pictures and updates. 10/10”
About: I am an experienced dog parent with a deep love for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Having recently lost our high-energy Staffy, I'm deeply familiar with the dedication required to keep active dogs exercised, stimulated, and happy. I work from home, so your dog will benefit from constant supervision, plenty of indoor attention, and consistent daily walks. Whether your pup needs rigorous exercise or just a cozy spot to hang out while you're away, they will be in safe, loving hands with me Working at the house gives me complete control over my daily schedule, so caring for a dog fits naturally into my routine. My day is built around morning, midday, and evening walks, as well as regular yard time and structured play breaks. Because I'm home all day, guest dogs get constant supervision, consistent potty schedules, and plenty of affection to help distract me from work. In my home, guest pets are treated just like family. I closely follow every owner's explicit instructions for feeding schedules, house rules, and special needs to keep their routine as consistent as possible
“Michaela was AMAZING! So sweet and attentive to Violet, and sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. She administered Violet’s medications and special food three times a day with no issues and made everything feel effortless. Michaela was also very easy to schedule with and super responsive with communication. We’re so grateful to have found her and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“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.”
“I’m definitely a bit of a helicopter dog mom and trust very few people to watch my fur babies while I’m out of town. Peyton & Daved have cared for my high-energy Australian Shepherd puppy, Luna, on three separate occasions now, and every single time she is beyond excited when we pull up—and completely tuckered out after spending her stay playing with all of her friends. They are incredibly patient with me constantly asking for “pupdates” and always send plenty of photos and updates of Luna exploring, playing, and having fun. It makes such a difference and really helps ease the guilt of being away from her. I’m so grateful we found Peyton & Daved. In fact, whenever I’m getting ready to travel now, I’m actually excited knowing Luna gets to spend time with her friends and people who genuinely care about her. There’s no better feeling than knowing your pup loves her home away from home just as much as you do. Thank you, Peyton & Daved, for taking such wonderful care of Luna. We couldn’t recommend you more highly!”
“Myrna was great with my little guy! She gave updates the whole time I was away and helped with his anxiety while I was out of town. She made sure he had everything he needed and more! Thank you Myrna!!”
“This was Pitch's first stay with anyone he did not already know (he is almost 10!) and Tara was FANTASTIC! We are so thankful for how well she cared for him! We have already committed to her watching him again.”
“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.”
“Ethel was just beyond wonderful!!! We had our rescue dog for 6 days before leaving him with Ethel for 4 days. She was so flexible with our drop off and pick up times! She sent us messages and pictures throughout the 4 days to put our mind at ease regarding all of the fun that he was having with her. She also let us pick him up during the middle of trip to spend some time with him. He just loved her to death from the moment he met her! I loved the way she sat on the floor to really make our boy feel comfortable meeting her. When we brought him back to her during the middle of the trip he ran right up to her door and greeted her with kisses. This is our first experience with a dog and with Rover. I can say that we would travel back to Williamsburg first and foremost for Ethel to watch our baby and secondly to visit the area. Ethel is so loving - your pet will be in the best care with her!”
“Allie is very calm and happy. Just what I want when she comes home. She was treated so very well. Would definitely trust Bryan and his family and use their services again in the future”
“Cheyanne is truly amazing, very responsive, kind, and communicative. This is my very first time boarding and she made the experience very easy. Thank you so much Cheyanne!”
About: Worked as a veterinary assistant and have experience caring for cats, dogs, reptiles, horses, and farm animals. Also have experience working with scared or aggressive animals I am a student, so I have a flexible schedule and would love to care for animals during study breaks to make some extra money I always am thoughtful about the animals and pay lots of attention to what they need and are telling me. I make sure the animal is comfortable and happy
“Having NEVER left my puppies before, I was hesitant and nervous to do so. Shania eased my concerns from the very beginning. I was literally in contact with her multiple times before my puppies were even in her care. I'm happy to say, ALL WENT WELL!!! I highly recommend Shania and can't wait to use her services again.”

There are 626 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lanexa. About 93% of Lanexa sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
