“Tina was a fantastic sitter for our 10-year old pup! She is clearly a “dog person” at heart and set us at ease right away. Snowball settled in right away and acted confident and comfortable with Tina. She took him for walks and played with toys and sent us cute photos each day! It was evident Tina took excellent care of him! Tina was also quick to respond and communicated well throughout our booking. Will definitely book with Tina again!”
“My dogs had a great stay! Denise even got my picky dog to eat from a dish. I have a very hard time with. Her eating. The pictures of my dogs relaxing with the family gave me peace of mind so that I could enjoy my vacation. I would highly recommend Denise.”
“Jaliyah was great and very patient with our Clyde. She communicated promptly and often. When I picked him up and she was saying bye, he actually went and licked her hand. If you know Clyde, this was very unusual. I felt this was a sign that she was kind to him.”
“Melissa is awesome!! She cares for our pups as if they are her own and sends us updates throughout their whole stay. Love trusting her for our animals when we’re out of town!”
“Lily just loves it when we drop her off with Christianna and Mary B. and why not because they continue to provide the best care and attention to her. Thanks again and for the video too.”
“This was our first time using Rover and Christine couldn't have eased our minds more about leaving our dogs with a stranger for a few days. She took our two dogs to the dog park near her house, let them play outside in her backyard and cuddled with them daily. I know because she sent us photos and videos each day of our trip. By the time we picked them up, Christine was no longer a stranger but their new best friend. Our girls loved spending time with her and I'm sure yours will too! Thank you Christine!”
“George (Chip).was great! Brandy was well cared for. He provided updates and was even able to accommodate a last minute change where she needed to stay an extra night. Would highly recommend. Thanks Chip!”
“Anika was absolutely amazing. The care and concern provided for my baby was out of this world. Mocha thoroughly enjoyed being spoiled and having a ball with everyone in the home. I was really appreciative of Anika's consistent communication and check ins. The photos and videos were the highlight of my day while I was away. I don't trust my baby with many, but my heart was completely at ease while she was in Anika's care. Ever grateful. We will definitely use her services in the future. Thank you 💕”
“Our dog squid had a fantastic time with Rose and her dogs while we went away for a 4 day trip. Rose was very easy to work with and sent pictures and updates all throughout squids stay with her. We are super grateful and will absolutely be reaching out to her next time we need a reliable dog sitter.”
“Brandy and her family were wonderful with our dogs while we went out of town. She kept us updated and sent pictures. Our dogs seemed very comfortable with her. We will definitely use Brandy in the future if we need dog sitting.”
“Was very appreciative that Donna took Kodi at the last minute when her usual border wasn't available. She seems so pleasant. Kodi was fine. I will definitely use her again if necessary. I gave her a cash tip which I always do so that they can get full benefit of it.”
About: I have 6 years of experience caring for pets and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family members. I provide attentive, loving, and reliable care while making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications, and plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I take the time to make sure they receive individualized care and feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I am currently working full-time, mostly remote with one or two days in the office each month. Working from home gives me plenty of flexibility to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention throughout the day. I’m also happy to accommodate each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I provide a calm, attentive environment and carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, medications, walks, routines, or special needs.
About: I’ve had dogs growing up my whole life, have two dogs, my 8 year old Pomeranian, Toby, and my 2 year old lab scout. We also have 3 cats; Finn, Sassy and sully I’m currently a stay at home mom raising my 14 month old son. He usually comes with me to do my rovers and does really well with animals as he has a bunch at home. He’s usually kept busy with toys or a movie while I do drop ins. We have house sitted before and he’s done well with that. My dogs are let out every two - four hours . My cats are fed twice daily once in the morning and again before bedtime but dry food is left out all day for grazing.
“This was our dog’s, Simba, second stay with Emily and John. It went as smooth as the first time. Simba seems happy and his normal self. The pair were responsive and respectful. No complaints here. Will continue to use them.”
“My family had a last minute crisis and Cathy came through for us. She boarded my 55 lb English Setter for 7 days, which is the technical name for it. In reality she loved my dog for 7 days. Sent me lots of pictures and made me feel completely at peace about leaving my dog with her. Cathy has a large German Shepard who got along fine with my baby girl (they were together in most of the pictures). I am a customer for life!!!!!”
About: For us, pet care isn't a hobby—it’s a lifestyle. We've been inseparable from animals since childhood, spending both our formative years training and exploring with our own trusted companions. That childhood passion evolved into a lifelong commitment; today, my husband (Micah) and I are known by friends and family as the "pet whisperers." We have a natural instinct for animal body language and an innate ability to make even the most nervous pups feel right at home. Why Choose Our Home? When your dog stays with us, they aren't just being watched—they are joining our family. We offer: Lifelong Expertise: Decades of experience handling various breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. Training-Focused Play: I’ve carried my love for training into adulthood, meaning I’m happy to reinforce your house rules or practice basic commands during our play sessions. The Power of Two: With both my husband and me dedicated to your pet’s care, there is always a lap available for cuddles and an extra set of eyes on the yard. One of the best parts of staying with us is the built-in social life! We are proud parents to three well-socialized dogs who truly love making new friends. Because our three have such distinct personalities, we’ve found that almost any visiting guest finds a "soulmate" in our pack. There's the gentle soul (Dom), the endless playmaker (Milo) and the sweet social butterfly (Izzy). We’ve seen it time and time again—no matter the temperament, at least one (and usually all three!) of our dogs will inevitably click with your fur baby. They provide great company during the morning hours, ensuring your pet feels like a member of the family from the moment they walk through the door. Whether your dog is a high-energy explorer or a senior who just wants to sniff the country air, we provide a structured, loving environment where they can thrive while you're away. Your dog will never feel alone here! In the early morning hours, they’ll have our three social pups to keep them company and burn off energy. From lunchtime onwards, Micah works from home, meaning there is a human on-site for the majority of the day to oversee potty breaks, backyard explorations, and afternoon naps. We’ve found this routine works wonders for dogs who love having a pack to hang out with while still getting plenty of one-on-one human attention. We’ve carefully introduced many guest dogs to our trio, and we always ensure everyone is comfortable and safe before leaving them to bond. We have room to keep your pet separate but comfortable if they prefer their own space. 2-Acre Nature Retreat with Fenced Yard & In-Ground Pool! We believe that a vacation should be stress-free for both you and your pet. Our home is designed to be a haven where safety meets serenity. Safety & Serenity: Our home sits on 2 acres of stunning natural beauty, featuring a fully fenced-in (chain link) backyard. It’s the perfect blend of high-energy zoomies and peaceful nature watching. Whether your dog wants to sprint across the grass or simply observe the local birds from the shade, they can do so in a completely secure, enclosed environment. As lifelong pet owners, we are hyper-aware of safety. We perform regular perimeter checks of our fencing and ensure all gates are double-latched. Trust Through Instinct: We don't just watch dogs; we understand them. Our natural instincts with animals allow us to read subtle body language, helping us prevent stress before it starts and ensuring all interactions between our pack and your pup are positive and balanced. Environment: Your dog will never be relegated to a garage or a kennel. They will have full access to our living space, comfortable rugs for napping, and constant climate control. We treat our guests exactly like we treat our own three—as members of the family. Peace of Mind for You We know how hard it is to leave your pup behind. To ensure you feel as relaxed as your dog, we provide: Frequent Updates: Photo and video check-ins so you can see the "zoomies" in action. Transparent Communication: We are always just a text away if you want to check in on their behavior, appetite, or mood. Vetted Companionship: Our three resident dogs are fully vaccinated, well-socialized, and expert hosts. In addition to our large fenced in yard, we feature a large in-ground pool for our water-loving guests! Supervised Splashing: For dogs who love the water, the pool offers a fantastic way to cool off and get some low-impact exercise. Whether it’s fetching a floating toy or just wading on the steps, it’s always a highlight of the stay. Safety First: We take pool safety very seriously. Access to the pool area is strictly supervised at all times. If your dog isn't a swimmer or you prefer they stay dry, we ensure the pool area is off-limits during their outdoor play sessions so they can focus on the grass and trails instead. Post-Swim Care: If your pup does take a dip, we’re happy to give them a quick freshwater rinse and a towel dry so they stay fresh and comfortable when they head back inside.
About: I have been pet sitting for about 5 years now! With lots of experience with senior dogs and animals in need of more attentive care! I am fully available to housesit along with pets! I work a wonky schedule but the animal or persons baby also comes first! I am fully available 7 days a week! I am much more able to give my upmost priority and attention when staying with the animal in their home. I am not able to host animals at the moment. Not until I move. If that was not going on I would absolutely be able to host.
About: Hi! I’m La’Quondra, a compassionate and dependable animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I’ve volunteered at a pet shelter and have hands-on experience providing loving care to animals with a variety of personalities and needs. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra patience, playtime, and potty breaks, as well as senior pets who may require a gentler pace, medications, or additional attention. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers quiet cuddles and companionship, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own routine and preferences, and I take pride in providing personalized care. I’ll treat your furry family member as if they were my own and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind during your time apart. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I am a stay at home mom with a love for animals and look forward to serving your 4-legged family member during my free time. I have a fenced yard and plenty of walking and hiking trails within walking distance to our home. I can walk them or just cuddle if that’s more their speed. Your trust in knowing your pet is loved brings me joy.

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.
94% of sitters in Nomini 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 Nomini 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 Nomini.
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 Nomini. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 Nomini 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.
