“I couldn’t be happier with the care my puppy, Kobe, received from Kayce. This was my first time leaving him, and as a baby puppy, I was naturally nervous. She communicated with me very well, kept me updated, sent pictures, and treated Kobe like he was her own. Knowing he was in such good hands gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her to watch Kobe again.”

“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.”

“Christina and family put me at ease immediately with continuous communication and updates even before Kane’s stay. I loved their willingness to accommodate his sleeping and eating habits and even the daily walks by Christina’s husband was kind and thoughtful. Kane has an affinity for blankets and they sent Kane home with another to add to his collection. A lovely family who made our time away from Kane soooo much easier. Grateful and thankful!”

“Siobhan and her family were amazing they watched our little pomsky for 5 days and it wasn’t easy. Unfortunately, it appears he gets really nervous when we leave him and it is extreme leading to him being very difficult to care for. However, they did great, bathed him when needed and kept us updated of the challenges. I appreciate their service and recommend them to anyone looking for caring sitters for their dogs. Thank you again!!”

“Ellysia is the very best dog sitter we have ever had. Abby was right at home at her house for 12 days. It was clear she felt loved and cared for. She was great about communication what Abby was up to and sent photos and videos. It is rare to find someone you feel this confident about leaving your dog with. Abby is sensitive to thunder and she gave special care and attention to help Abby through those times. We feel very blessed to have found such a nice wonderful caring person to send Abby to when we are gone. Thank you so much!”

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 McKenney 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 McKenney.

<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 McKenney 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.
