“This is Kobe’s 2nd time boarding with Kevin and his family! Wonderful hosts, Kobe almost didn’t want to leave and went back in the house to say goodbye :). Will definitely book with Kevin again!”
“Jie is so amazing! She watched my cats for an overnight stay and she was so accommodating. She has a perfect set up and space for them. Definitely will rebook with her!”
“Jorge and Alejandra were AMZAZING!! I have a very anxious girl (dog) Roo and they made sure she was very comfortable and felt right at home! They were great about sending updates and putting my mind at ease! Roo had a great time and was very tired when she came home! I felt very comfortable with her staying with them! They truly treated her like part of the family and I will be contacting them when needed again!”
“Yasmine is an excellent dog sitter and she and her family took great care of our dog. She was very communicative when coordinating arrangements and gave many updates on how much fun our dog was having while we were away.”
“Very happy Susan and Michael could watch oreo while we went on vacation. It’s his home away from home. When I drop him off he just runs inside without looking back so he must have a great time and be well loved while there. Based upon the pictures of him on the couch and in bed he’d agree.”
“We truly lucked out with Isabelle! She was a wonderful sitter for our 6 month old puppy. She sent pictures and videos along with her updates. We truly felt our pup was in safe hands and really enjoyed herself! We will definitely reach out to Isabelle again to have her watch our pup :)”
“Lucy and I had a great experience with Evan and his wife! This was my first time using Rover, and I was a little nervous, but Evan sent me updates with pictures frequently, giving me peace of mind that Lucy was in good hands! I highly recommend Evan for dog sitting and will definitely book him again!”
“We were so happy with our experience with Helena and Nathan! After another Rover cancelled on us last minute, they fit us in and truly saved the day! Their yard was amazing - especially for our 95 lb mutt who just loves to run. And our little old man loved the cozy beds around the house. They sent pics and videos every day and our boys came back happy and healthy. As a bonus, while we have noticed our dogs often come back from Rovers smelling like a kennel, after a weekend with Helena and Nathan they came back smelling great!”
“Cheyenne did an incredible job taking care of my pup while I was away for five days. They had a blast playing and staying active, and it was evident when I returned home. He was exhausted in the best way possible. Cheyenne was very responsive and kept me updated throughout the week. I highly recommend her.”
“Bao had an amazing time and seemed to not want to leave after spending 5 days with Loreen! Without a doubt will look to use her in the future in case we have another need for sitter.”
“Mocha had a great stay with Shirley and Bomi! This was the longest we’ve been away from Mocha but we felt very at ease having Mocha stay with Shirley! She sent constant updates and cute pictures of mocha that will stay in our photo gallery forever. She was also very attentive and made sure we knew if there’s any concerns as well! Would 100% recommend Shirley to watch your pups!”
“Very great communication and sent a lot of pictures while I was away! Made my girls feel at home and the family was incredibly nice/hospitable. Did not worry at all leaving my girls in their care!”
“Miloș had a great week at Andrew’s. It’s always hard leaving him in a new place, but Andrew did a great job putting our nerves at ease. He takes care of the dogs like they are his own and even had some photo updates along the way. We are grateful for the care he received, and would happily come back for another visit.”
“Leah was great! She is a very kind and caring person, and those qualities shine through when she's petsitting. She sent me pictures showing my dog relaxing and looking happy while he was with her.”
“Alexis, Andrew, and their boys did an amazing job of making Pepper feel comfortable and happy. Regular pics of Pepper was sent to me and she looks very happy in every pic. I would recommend this family for anyone looking for a dog sitter. Thanks again for caring for Pepper.”
“I was nervous to leave my dog Archie with a sitter for the first time, but it went wonderfully! Lina and her family spoiled Archie with lots of treats and time in the yard, and I got lots of photo updates. He's already looking forward to his next stay! ❤️🐶”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - McLean
We had the pleasure of having Loreen S. watch our dog for 4 days and nights. What a joy it was to have her and her family taking care of our beloved dog. She sent us pictures and videos of her and her family lovingly taking care of her all the time. We loved getting them! It was such a relief to know that she was being so well care for. We recommend her to anyone who loves their dog and who wants to be assured that their dog will be lovingly cared for.
From the moment we met Ellie, I knew he would be in loving hands. She truly went above and beyond in every way. She spoiled him with plenty of playtime and home made treats (Taro's favorite- he approved 100% pawcent) and gave him so much love and attention throughout his stay. The photo updates meant so much to me. Seeing Taro so happy, relaxed, and enjoying himself made being away so much easier. When I picked Taro up, he was happy, healthy, and so well cared for. I am so incredibly grateful for the love and care she gave him and so happy to have found her on Rover. Knowing I now have someone I can trust with my pup is priceless, and I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their dog as if they were her own!
Jingwan was an excellent sitter. While we were traveling, she communicated early and often, provided regular updates, and sent pictures so we could see that our puppy was happy, comfortable, and enjoying his own little mini-vacation. I highly recommend Jingwan and will definitely use her as our go-to sitter whenever we travel.
Mee Jeong truly saved our weekend when she agreed to watch our girls! We had a meet and greet before our set drop off time, and our girls warmed up to her immediately. Her dog, Daisy, was super sweet, and accepted our girls instantly. Through the course of our weekend, Mee Jeong provided daily updates, showing pictures of the walks they were going on, and updates regarding their eating, sleeping, playfulness, and walks. The girls looked ecstatic in every picture that was sent over, and I didn’t think they would want to come home with me! They were properly stimulated, and to the point of driving them home, they napped the entire way. I would be honored to have Mee Jeong watch our girls again!
So caring and a good fit for my dog Teddy. The environment was perfect for my senior little dog. The day before boarding, my little guy broke a toe and was put in a soft cast. Inwas prepared to cancel my trip, but Jennifer stepped up and took the injured guy and I knew and was right he was in good hands. Shared photos daily and comments to keep me at ease while I was out of town. Recommend highly!
Jason and Becky were absolutely amazing with Teddie! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. They sent so many pictures and regular updates throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and let us see how much fun he was having. Teddie had the best time going to the dog park, playing with their two wonderful dogs, and getting lots of love and attention. It was clear they treated him like one of their own, and he came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We are so grateful for the incredible care they gave him and wouldn't hesitate to book with them again. We highly recommend Jason and Becky to anyone looking for caring, reliable sitters. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of our boy! 🐾
Yiting was absolutely amazing. She sent us tons of updates through out Stogie’s stay. She is very knowledgeable about dogs. Our pup is very high energy and is very attached to us, but he had such a great time. He came home tired and well exercised, which is so appreciated after a trip. He had a blast!
My cat was so lucky to stay with such a caring cat person. Chathurika took such good care of Toby and now he is missing her and her cat. She was kind, patient, friendly, and extremely loving with my cat; she truly is a ‘cat person’. Lucky us!! I hope to leave Toby with her again. Great cat sitter!!! Thank you😊

FAQs for Dog Boarding - McLean
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in McLean on Rover is $63.85 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 7,847 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in McLean. About 91% of McLean 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.
