“Deb and Ralph are amazing! True dog people. Natalie and Billy loved staying with them. They were calm, relaxed and so at ease when I picked them up—it was so clear they had spent 3 days in a loving, safe, and welcoming home. Normally, Natalie is a scared bag of nerves and with Deb she was happy, content, and chill. Billy is a high energy puggle puppy, but he had a blast wrestling and playing with Ralph. I can’t thank them enough for beating my the BEST care givers ever!!! 🙏🏼🐕🦺🐕🥰😁”
“Kathryn was a WONDERFUL pet sitter for our little English bulldog, Daisy. She kept in touch with us and sent updates. We could tell Daisy really enjoyed her stay! Thank you, Kathryn!!!”
“Joe and Lilibet were very welcoming to Booker who very much enjoyed his time with them. Will absolutely book again. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a Rover in/around Staunton area.”
“We were so happy to find Casey to watch our dog. She did an amazing job and gave us such a peace of mind leaving our dog for the first time. She was easy to communicate with during our time away and graciously sent us pictures through the stay. We can’t recommend Casey enough!”
“Sophia was excellent!! Starting with the meet and greet, she was an absolute pleasure to work with! She sent detailed and regular updates, including letting us know about anything out of the ordinary. She administered medications as needed and was very understanding of my dog’s anxiety. I can tell my dog was very happy, loved, and well cared for while I was away! I would absolutely use Sophia’s services again!”
“Wow! This experience couldn't have been better! First off, Amy is kind, professional, and clearly loves what she does! From the meet and greet to the first weekend stay, everything went perfectly. Mac immediately felt safe, happy, and at home - and I can tell he did because Amy sent plenty of photos and videos to give me that assurance. Mac fell in love with her too right away and made some dog friends! Mac and I found our new go-to! PS - if you live a little farther out, it's so worth the drive.”
“Erin was wonderful. This was our first time using Rover and it was a very positive experience. Communication was great, location is in a beautiful suburb that's convenient to 81, and our black lab seemed quite happy and well cared for when we picked her up.”
“First let me just start off by saying Mary and her family are too cute! They welcomed my little Topaz as if he were their own! You can feel the energy of her home warm and inviting, her dog is very sweet as well. She updated me with pics quite often and she even game him a bath before I picked him back up! I would highly recommend her and would definitely re use her if ever I needed care services in the future! Thank you guys for being so awesome!”
“Gretchen was incredibly responsive, supportive, & communicative — especially for a last-minute request. If I’m in the area again and need a dog sitter, I will definitely reach out; the care from her community of neighbors was incredible! I particularly appreciated their transparency & consideration for Bugs’ needs.”
“Eman is the best! We always leave our Yorkie Poo with her and never worry for a second. She’s super reliable, caring, and Simmi always has the best time. It’s clear she loves what she does, and it shows in how happy and relaxed our fur baby is every time we pick her up. Highly recommend!!!💕💕”
“Tiffanie was beyond amazing! Her kindness and love of animals was evident during our first "meet and greet." Leaving my anxious GSD was a concern, but Tiffanie's confident and compassionate manner easily quelled any fears. Tiffanie updated me daily with pics and provided daily walks in the park with my fur baby! Most noteworthy, however, was my pooch had reemerging symptoms appear of a recent medical condition and Tiffanie handled it compassionately and without complaint! She was a true blessing to both me and my pooch! I HIGHLY recommend her.”
“Margaret was wonderful! She took great care of my senior girl and gave her the love and attention she needed while I was away. She was easy to communicate with and provided pictures. I’d definitely book with Margaret again the next time I’m in the area!”
“10/10 would absolutely book with her again! she was so prompt and responsive leading up to ollie’s stay, and she was incredibly accommodating. as soon as i arrived, she immediately made me feel like ollie was in good hands, which gave me so much peace of mind. he had such a fun time staying with her and even got to see goats, which was definitely a highlight! i really appreciated how caring and attentive she was with him.🩷”
About: I have taken care of our elderly farm dogs for 2 years and a rambunctious new pup this year who has lots of energy! I have also helped my mom take care of her cats since I was 18. I am currently between jobs so this is perfect . I’m a very active person, I love walking and grounding in nature. It would be great to have some company on these walks! I have a fenced in back yard on a 3 acre land. I have a young dog named Charlie who is our farm dog, he is an excited rambunctious pup that helps protect our chickens, he can be crated if needed.
“Reyna is such a great host, she really made it feel like a home away from home for my sweet girl! She sent updates consistently, and I even got a puppy report card letting me know how my pup did during her stay (A+!!) I would very much recommend booking with Reyna, as she will fulfill all of your pups needs to a T!!! Thank you Reyna!!”

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 Marlbrook 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 Marlbrook.
<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 Marlbrook 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.
