“Rosalina did a wonderful job taking care of my dog! She kept me updated throughout the stay and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me peace of mind knowing everything was going well. I really appreciated her communication and the care she showed. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Jamie did a great job watching Henry! She kept me informed and sent pictures daily. Her dog was extremely friendly and accepted Henry immediately. I know Henry had a great time because he slept the entire day we picked him up. Would definitely recommend Jamie to anyone and would book with her again if we need a sitter.”
“Really sweet family LenaNina had great time. She was there for a couple of days and they always sent me pictures and kept me up-to-date. Very quick to respond. They have a very nice backyard space and indoor daycare area. I totally recommend.”
“Rebecca sent us daily pics, and made extra efforts to encourage our elderly dog to eat, even feeding her their own dogs' food. Furthermore, the fact that one of them is always at home to take care of the dogs was a major plus! Thanks so much, Rebecca and Roman!”
“We used Jim to look after our two very energetic young dogs. Jim was very responsive to any requests for information. Our dogs were very well looked after and were spoilt by all the walks in his very nice and quiet neighborhood. He sent updated several times a day with photos and the dogs weee definitely enjoying all the attention from Jim. We will definitely use Jim again to look after them.”
“Tracey was amazing. She was always lightning fast with responses, swooped in last minute to save the day, took care of everything, did more than I even asked of her, and made my first experience with Rover jaw-dropping. I am so glad that I found Rover, and so glad that it helped me find Tracey. No constructive feedback or concerns at all. Thank you so much.”
“My dog did great with Jessica! This was my first time leaving my dog, Papas, for an extended period, 9 days while I was out of town. He had been to a boarding facility for a day, up to 3-4 days at a time. He is small, 12 lbs, but being with too many other dogs gives him anxiety, especially if they have a lot of energy and are in his face a lot. He would prefer to be with larger dogs, but with traditional boarding there are so many dogs that the commotion just gives him anxiety and he stays by himself a lot. I didn’t have the heart to send him there for this trip away, so I figured with Rover, a more controlled environment - with humans who could give him proper attention, and just a few other dogs would be a more positive environment. My dog loved Jessica and wagged his tail right on up to her right away. Her daughter was sweet and gentle with him as well. I received pictures regularly and never felt the need to check in. I felt he was taken care of and having a good time, as was evident when I picked him up and he was exhausted! I will definitely reach out to Jessica again next time I need Papas to be taken care of and know he is in good hands.”
“Awesome sitter! Great communicator, sent updates and pics everyday. Both my cat and dog seemed to be very comfortable with her. Very knowledgeable as well about how to properly take care of fur babies. Gave me good tips!”
“Anthony took great care of our 3 fur babies and kept us updated each day with check ins and pictures. He even took the time and initiative to make fresh chicken and rice for our old gal who sometimes doesn’t feel like eating. He accommodated our drop off and pick up times as well without complaint which was so nice. He has a great set up for his “guests”. We are so happy and appreciative of his service and to know we have a safe and friendly option for the “kids” when we are gone. Highly recommend!!”
“We rebooked with Katherine and Marc after a good fist stay a couple months ago. Less than a week before her scheduled stay this time, our dog tore her ACL. They cared for her so well and provided me lots of updates.”
“Ana was very sweet. It was my dog's first time with her and she had a great time. Ana let Godiva take her time to warm up to her and feel comfortable, she took her on walks, and also let her play with her pup. Ana was very communicatove and sent me photos, My dog enjoyed her stay! I will definitely be using Ana again.”
“Just perfect. Michelle has a lovely home with a nice park and lake area in the backyard for the dogs to enjoy. Very safe area well away from roads. Michelle communicated very well, sent photos and updates, and was completely flexible with drop off and pickup times. Someone was home with my pup all the time and Zoey really seemed to love her stay with Michelle. Highly recommended.”
“Jessie was absolutely amazing. If you need to leave your very loved pet for a trip, Jessie will take care of them like her own. Our Zinny was super happy with her stay and we will definitely use Jessie again soon!”
About: I’ve been a pet sitter since I was 10 years old, caring for cats, dogs, birds, and rabbits of all ages. Experience with puppies and senior animals, and the extra care that requires. Available for overnights, daytime visits, and even bath time. I currently work full time but I am available in the evenings to love on your furry family member. I love taking dogs for walks or playing fetch. I have a crate to keep your pup comfortable in my home, plus a dog, cat, and two affectionate teenagers. If visiting a client’s home, I will love on the fur baby and make sure it has plenty of food, water, treats, and playtime.
“Michael is a very friendly guy and a great sitter. Michael waited in front of his building to welcome Theo when I dropped him off and Michael took him to get a pup cup immediately which is Theo favorite thing to do. Overall, Theo really enjoyed his stay with Michael.”
“Camila was awesome! Despite my travel plans adjusting last minute she was extremely accommodating and very communicative throughout the stay. Grateful for her passion and professionalism.”
“Mary watched my two dogs a total of four times for three days at a time, and I waited till the last visit to write a review. Mary is absolutely awesome. My youngest can be a handful at times, but Mary is extremely patient, caring, and truly just loves dogs. I received a message from Mary on the second visit that my dog threw up and was not feeling good. She asks me if she can boil chicken breast and rice for him to have something easier on the stomach. This just made me feel good about leaving them in her care and that she had his best interest. She truly wants the best for them. She is the first person my dog has ever ran up to invitingly and was not timid of. I will definitely be going back to Mary if I’m in need of a good dog sitter.”
“Emmanuel is amazing with my puppy! She was such at ease with him and his family! I was kept up-to-date on her days and nights that they spent together. Emmanuel is very observant, caring, and communicative! He brought out her playful side, and I loved the sweet videos and pictures he sent. We will absolutely use him again!”

I know Henry had a great time because he slept the entire day we picked him up. Would definitely recommend Jamie to anyone and would book with her again if we need a sitter.
Angeline was the best choice for dog sitting my two pups. She was very communicative, had great knowledge of my dogs needs, and was super accommodating for picking up the dogs after my delayed flight. I will 100% be using Angeline in the future. She is so caring and takes care of the dogs as if they are her own. I greatly appreciate all she did for me and Basil and Dill.
I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the very beginning, Gustavo was incredibly kind, communicative, and caring. I felt completely comfortable knowing my pet was in such great hands. They treated my pet like their own and kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. My pet was happy, comfortable, and clearly well taken care of when I came back. It’s obvious that Gustavo genuinely loves animals and takes their responsibility seriously. I really appreciated how attentive they were and how easy they made the entire process. I would absolutely recommend Gustavo to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and loving to care for their pets. I’ll definitely be booking with them again!
Great communication, very responsive and detailed with all concerns as a first-time client. My crazy little Boston terrier opened up to her day 1 as if he had always known her :-) Would absolutely book with again, thank you for providing Ozzie a true home away from home!
Bryant and the family were outstanding. They took such great care of my fur baby Chance. They gave constant updates and videos of their interactions and having fun with the doggie! They were by far my he best caregivers we have ever had using Rover. I definitely recommend them and hopefully they will be available for the next time. Thanks again for taking such good care of Chance!!!
What a relief that I found Nancy! I knew from the moment we met that she genuinely loves and cares about dogs!! She took great care of our little guy, sent multiple pictures daily during his stay, and made everything so easy. We found a winner and will absolutely seek her out again!
Jessica was amazing with my senior English Bulldog. I went away for a holiday for my best friend’s wedding. I was a little nervous about leaving Desi, as he can be reactive so we scheduled a meet up beforehand. This gave me some peace of mind when Desi made himself right at home. Jessica was great about sending updates throughout my trip and was able to easily manage Desi’s supplements and high maintenance behavior.

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 Montclair 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 Montclair 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 Montclair.
<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 Montclair 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.
