“Walter and his family continue to take amazing care of our puppy. When leaving today, she whimpered - that’s a sign of a happy girl! We are so happy to have found this loving family. Thank you again for all that you do to make Harper feel right at home. We look forward to working with you again soon!”
“Lauren went above and beyond for us while we went on vacation. She cared for our two cats. Gave them lots of love and attention as well as transported them to and from our home safely. She will be our first choice if we need care again and I highly recommend her to anyone who needs care for their pets. :) thank you again, Lauren!”
“Lori always takes good care of our monsters. They come back tired and ready for naps for all their playtime (my favorite kind of night!). She is responsive and keeps us updated on their time there.”
“Kristen was awesome with both my Irish Wolfhound puppy and his little sister a lab/pit bull mix. Plenty of time to run and play in the big areas. They both loved it.”
“Alexsys and her family took great care of my Joey when I got a last minute invitation to take a trip. I appreciate that she was available at the last minute when my usual boarding facility was completely booked. She sent me texts everyday and also sent pictures. If I had any questions, she got right back to me. I really appreciated all of that. Thank you, Alexsys!”
“Heather is absolutely amazing! We’ve never left one of our dogs with anyone outside of family and it was so nice to see they had a blast and made themselves feel right at home. She is flexible, quick response time and has plenty of room for our dogs to run and play, also meeting some new friends with their dogs. We will keep our dogs going to Heather anytime we leave town and she is available.”
“Vidhi did a wonderful job taking care of Buddy. Communication was smooth throughout his stay, and she sent daily pictures, which gave me peace of mind. I also loved that she also has a mini Goldendoodle, so Buddy had a buddy to keep him company! He looked very comfortable and happy in her home. I would definitely recommend Vidhi, and I have booked her again for next weekend.”
“Tetiana and her family does so well with our little buddy Milo it’s like he’s family to them. We really appreciate the attention to details and TLC she provides to him and the peace of mind she gives us while we are away!”
“Rosie just loves staying with Allison so I took my grumpy old man Tumbles too. He had a great time and I didnt worry one bit while they stayed over night with her. Book with her, you won't regret it@”
“Maki and Joel are exceptionally kind Rover hosts! They were patient with my anxious dog and communicated frequently with me, including multiple photos. I cannot say enough good things about them!”
“Cheryl and Lee were fabulous. Emma had a lovely time running with the pack. Max and Mando were staying with Chase and Scout as well. Emma is a couch potato and they were all good with that scenario. I will definitely use them again if the need arises. I enjoyed my family knowing that Emma was welcome in theirs.”
“The only person we are 100% comfortable leaving our fur baby with when out of town. Our girl is shy and struggles with separation anxiety except when she is at Tara’s. She walks right in to her home just like she does at ours! Excellent communication and flexibility in scheduling when challenges arise.”
“Monty had a wonderful time boarding with Ashley and her family and got on very well with their super sweet dog Rey. Ashley is lovely and caring and you can see that she is very experienced with handling dogs. Monty was immediately at ease in her house and did not hesitate to show her affection from the first moment we met. I would highly recommend Ashley to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy and caring environment for their furry baby.”
“Jessica was the perfect fit for my two babies. The minute the got out of the car they were exploring. Tails up! She has a wonderful space for animals to run and play outside and plenty of room inside as well. Her home is clean and inviting. She sent frequent updates and pictures. It was evident my doggies had a blast. I'm very thankful to have found her. I would give her 10 🌟 She's above and beyond a great sitter 🙌”
“Ingrid was welcoming from the first. I appreciated her insistence on a meet and greet before committing to a multi day sitting. Moose and Alba loved visiting with Ingrid and Buddy and I’m sure look forward to future visits!”
“Can't say enough great things about Lauren and her family! She's our go-to. So caring and kind, she not only takes exceptional care of our dog, but also updates us with daily photos that keep us informed and make us feel like a part of the stay.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Milldale
Lauren went above and beyond in caring for our Kuki (1yr) and Foxy (15yr) dogs. She provided daily photo updates and reassured us that our dogs were doing well within her household. It was especially evident at the drop-off that our Kuki was appreciative of her boarding care by giving one last standing hug 😁 We will likely be seeking her care assistance again in the future. Thank you so much!

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.

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.
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.
95% of sitters in Milldale 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 Milldale 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 Milldale.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Milldale. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Milldale 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
