Stephanie kept us updated while we on vacation which made our trip even better. We will definitely call on Stephanie again. On this app I can only leave 5 stars, but she is definitely an eleven on a 10 point scale😊. Thank you so much Stephanie for taking care of Kokoa and Sevyn.”

She made my sweet girls feel so at home and I can’t thank her enough!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from young puppies to large breeds, and I’m confident handling a wide range of needs and personalities. I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to make sure every pet stays healthy and safe. I also have experience with basic puppy training, helping reinforce good habits and routines. What sets me apart is my patience and understanding, especially with dogs who have separation anxiety or need extra reassurance. I take the time to make pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like my own, paying close attention to their behavior, energy level, and individual needs so they get the best care possible. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to give each pet the time, attention, and consistency they need. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and even last-minute bookings when needed. Whether it's walks, drop-ins, or extended stays, I'm able to adjust my routine to match your pet's schedule and keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for them. I'm reliable, responsive, and committed to being there when you and vour pet need me. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I have a spacious three-floor condo that gives dogs plenty of room to move around and feel comfortable. I also have a friendly six-year-old dog who gets along well with other animals, helping visiting pets feel more at ease. My two daughters are gentle and respectful with animals, adding to the loving environment your pet will be in. I live in a great area for walks, so your dog will get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention throughout the day. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping things consistent and stress-free by maintaining their normal routine and environment. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Hope did a great job watching Luffy during my week-long trip. Luffy was really happy with them, and I was able to rest easy knowing he was in great hands the entire time. Hope provided detailed and consistent updates with pictures throughout the stay, and went the extra mile to make sure Luffy felt comfortable. Highly recommend!”
“Matt was a phenomenal sitter for Sookie! He gave daily updates and pictures- his home was clearly ready to receive pets and she had a phenomenal time.”
“Jesse was so great with Zoey. He sent lots of photos, took her on a lot of walks and spent cuddle time with her. It’s clear he truly loves animals. We’d love for Zoey to stay with Jesse again.”
“Amanda was the greatest puppy sitter while we were out of town for a week. We looked forward to her texts with photos and videos every day. My 2 had a great time with her 2 ❤️ We will definitely have Amanda watch our babies again. Thank you!!”
“Fantastic experience with Miss Aubrey. Kept us updated while we were away with pictures and even video. Mac was incredibly happy playing with her dogs and visiting with her family. We appreciate all she did while we were away to take care of our buddy Mac hoping she has availability the next time we’re away. Five star for sure.”
“Aaren and Jordon are practically family now. This is the second time they have watched my girl and they take the BEST care of her. They love on her, make sure she is getting fresh air, and even take her on outings. I almost hesitated to write this review because I don’t want yall to know how great they are and then start taking all to spots - just kidding! I can’t be selfish! Everyone deserves to feel the peace I feel when my pup stays with them ❤️.”
“We are so grateful to have found Ayme! We have an anxious dachshund named Newman that we haven't been able to leave with anyone but my mother. Ayme set up two meet and greets with Newman to garner a relationship with him prior to an overnight stay. Newman was still a bit anxious and fearful when we first dropped him off but both Amye and Andrew went above and beyond to make him as comfortable as possible and everything was great from there on out! We received lots of photos allowing us to relax on our trip knowing that Newman was doing great and with people who truly cared about his well being. I can't say enough good things about our experience with Ayme and Andrew; it meant so much to us and we will definitely re-book.”
“Lara was so great to work with! She took care of our Winnie like she was part of their family and kept us updated with lots of pictures throughout her stay. We will definitely book with her again!”

I cannot say enough amazing things about Stephanie! She watched both of our Dachshunds for 8 days while we were away on our honeymoon, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our fur babies! ❤️ Leaving our pups for that long was not easy, but Stephanie gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in loving, caring hands. She treated them like they were her own, making sure they were comfortable, happy, and spoiled with love and attention! Being able to fully enjoy our honeymoon without worrying about our babies meant the absolute world to us. Finding someone you can genuinely trust with your pets is priceless, and Stephanie exceeded every expectation! We are beyond grateful for the love and care she gave our little ones. I would recommend her a thousand times over! If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets like family, Stephanie is your girl! 🐾❤️ We will absolutely be using her again!
Niko had a great time with Aileen and her family! Her kids were the perfect playmates for Niko. They played fetch, tug of war, and they even covered him with blankets to keep him cozy while resting! Aileen was so kind to send several pictures during the stay and was very communicative. She mimicked our schedule and environment, and when we picked Niko up, he was so calm and happy. We will definitely use Aileen and her family in the future as long as they’ll have us!
She treated Teddy like he was part of the family! ❤️ He fit right in and seemed like such a happy pup during his stay. She sent frequent updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, and her communication was excellent. It was clear that Teddy was comfortable, loved, and very well cared for. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur baby!
Carleen took care of our six-month-old pup, Franklin, on short notice, and we’re so grateful she was available. She was responsive and communicative from the start, sent pictures throughout his stay, and followed all of the instructions we provided. It was reassuring to see that Franklin was so well cared for. We would happily recommend Carleen to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter!
We’ve used Cassie multiple times, and she is absolutely THE BEST! Sully loves staying at her home and spending time with Cassie and her family. It’s such a relief knowing he’s happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we’re away. She is kind, attentive, and clearly treats him like one of her own. We couldn’t recommend her enough and will definitely continue using her whenever we need a sitter for Sully.
Taryn has been taking care of my pups for years, and I’m so grateful to have someone I trust. She took such great care of them. She sent lots of photos and updates, was incredibly flexible with our travel and flight schedules, and made it so easy for us to actually relax and enjoy our trip knowing they were in great hands. Such a huge relief to have her, and I can’t recommend her enough! ❤️
This was the first time we have used Rover and we couldn’t be more pleased and happy! Tonya was absolutely the best. She organized a meet and greet months ahead of time at her house to be sure Kipper felt comfortable. We were a bit nervous leaving an elderly dog who is mostly blind and deaf for 2 weeks, but Tonya took the very best care of him!
Boarding our dog Nova with Kristina, Ricky, and their two sweet kids was great! They were super accommodating with a fairly last minute request, and they took excellent care of her. Communication was a breeze, and we got plenty of photos and updates throughout the trip. She got a ton of attention and playtime during her stay, and seemed right at home when we picked her up! Would absolutely book with them again!
This was the second time Jocelyn watched my dog, and once again she was absolutely fantastic! She kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog had a little anxiety and some tummy issues while I was away, and she handled everything with patience, care, and great communication. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my dog's well-being and made sure she was comfortable every step of the way. I couldn't ask for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate. We will definitely be booking with her again if she'll have us!
Our 2 senior dogs loved staying an extended weekend with Nuoya and her family! We did a meet and greet prior to booking to make sure all our dogs got along with each other. They asked a lot of important questions about schedules and needs. While we were gone we received pictures every day as well as any important updates. Our dogs received all of of the love and care I could have ever hoped for with a sitter. I can't recommend them enough!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Midlothian is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $53 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 of October 2026, there are 802 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Midlothian. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Midlothian 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 Midlothian home-away-from-home, 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 Midlothian.
<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 Midlothian 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 , 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 .
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.
