“Our dog Bonnie is sensitive and she usually gets nervous when she goes to new places. However, when we met Jennifer for the first time, she immediately started to explore Jennifer's living room, and she seemed very relaxed. When we went to pick her up, she didn't want to leave for a while. That says she had a great time in Jennifer's place. Thank you very much, Jennifer and her family!”
“John and Joanna continue to be amazing substitute parents for our two little Havanese. One of our dogs was having a problem going to the bathroom (which she has a vet appointment for) and they were so attentive to her. They made both of our dogs feel welcome and loved. We can’t wait to have them watch our dogs again soon!”
“Blanca was an amazing sitter. She helped me out in a pinch with a last minute, kept me updated during my little guys stay, and showed him lots of love. I would definitely recommend her to folks on this platform!”
“We are SO glad that we boarded Valentina with Erica and Kyle! They have the sweetest family and Valentina loved her time with them so much that she didn’t want to leave! She had tons of play time with their little dog and their children and lots of training time with Erica and Kyle. They also kept us updated with daily photos, videos, and texts. They are the best!”
“We are so grateful to Shiva for taking such wonderful care of our Frenchie, Arya! 🐾 From the moment we met Shiva, we felt completely comfortable leaving Arya in her care. She was incredibly loving, attentive, and thorough, making sure every detail of Arya’s care and routine was taken care of. Shiva was thoughtful about everything—from feeding and walks to making sure Arya was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. She kept us updated while we were away, which gave us such peace of mind, and it was clear that Arya was in wonderful hands. We came home to a very happy pup, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. We highly recommend Shiva to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, thorough, and genuinely caring. We will absolutely be asking her to look after Arya again! ❤️”
“Elena was great with my Bernese Mountain dog. He got lots of walks and attention, and Elena sent many photos and videos. Will be booking with Elena again as soon as I finish this review!”
“This was our first time using this sitter, and we had a great experience! They were very nice and took great care of my dog. He seemed happy and comfortable, and we would definitely consider booking with them again”
“Amazing Care for Tofu! Lydia was an absolute gem with our 9-year-old Shih Tzu, Tofu! From the moment we met her, we knew Tofu would be in excellent hands. She was incredibly attentive to his needs, making sure he got his regular walks, meals, and plenty of cuddles. Tofu can be a bit particular sometimes, but Lydia handled him with such patience and kindness. We especially appreciated her detailed updates and photos throughout the sitting. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was happy and well-cared for while we were away. Lydia went above and beyond, and we returned to a happy, healthy dog and a tidy home. We highly recommend Lydia to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter. Tofu can't wait to see her again!”
“6 stars!! I just started using Rover and can’t believe my great luck. Aastha was so incredible with my dog. She sent texts and videos and was so loving to my dog. She walked him on a regular schedule and of course has a fenced yard to run around in. Aside, from the great care, she and her family made me feel so welcome in their home. Her family is just so kind. I highly recommend Aastha for all your dog sitting needs!!!”
“Candice did a wonderful job caring for our dog! She was communicative throughout the booking, pre-arrival, during care, and through pick up. She genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. We will definitely use her again!”
“Keira took wonderful care of our dogs for three overnight stays! They were happy to get to know her and her dog Mokka. She took time to learn my dogs personalities and schedules. Highly recommend!”
“William took excellent care of my pup Iris while we were out of town for a short get away. William and his goldendoodle Maui were great hosts and Iris came home wore out from fun and playing. She was one happy dog.”
“Jill was terrific. She took wonderful care of our girl, and sent frequent pictures and updates. The videos she sent of our dog enjoying walks and playtime with her dog showed me that all was going well. We will definitely ask Jill to be our sitter again!”

Cesar came through for me on a last minute request. I was able to meet him and have Sammy visit the home a day or two before, which was very nice. Cesar’s yard is large and fenced off, which is perfect for a wandering Beagle. Sammy appeared to get along with Cesar’s dog, and that is an added bonus because Sammy loves to be with other dogs. I received updates with photos throughout the weekend and I was able to relax and have a good time knowing that Sammy was in good hands and well taken care of. Sammy is elderly and needs a little extra attention like doggy diapers while in the house and sometimes wanting to go out to out to pee in the middle of the night. Cesar was very nice to assure me that he understood Sammy’s needs and could handle Sammy with NO problem. I appreciate that Cesar was very welcoming, and willing to accommodate my last minute request. I will absolutely consider Cesar again in the future if I need boarding for Sammy. THANK YOU CESAR!
Alicia and Joseph did a great job taking care of our dog. They responded quickly to texts and we received daily updates/photos. They were careful to follow our care instructions. I feel lucky that we found them and wouldn't hesitate to use them again next time we need a sitter.
Tatiana was a very sweet caregiver for both my dog and cat. She provided them with walks and exercise. I think they both were spoiled with the amount of care they each received. My dog seemed to love having other dogs around to play with or was was just happy to relax. I think they didn’t want to come home. Tatiana communicate very well with me photos and videos of each of them playing or laying around just so I can see they were OK. I would highly recommend her to anyone if they ask me where should they go for a pet sitter.
Perry did great with Moo! She is very attentive and sent us lots of photos every day, all of which indicated that Moo was very comfortable and calm - a big deal for a dog with anxiety! Definitely a testament to how great of a sitter Perry is. Perry also managed a course of ear drops for us when we found out Moo had an ear infection the day we were scheduled to leave, which was extremely helpful! We’re very grateful to have found a sitter that made our girl so comfortable.
Selina took wonderful care of my senior dog, Scooter, while I was traveling. She was kind, flexible, and very easy to communicate with, including when I needed to extend his stay. She sent sweet updates and photos, and it was obvious Scooter was comfortable and loved while he was there. He even got attached to their “dog blanket,” which was adorable. I really appreciated the extra care, flexibility with pickup times, and how safe I felt leaving him with her. I would definitely book with Selina again and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter. Thank you!

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.
94% of sitters in Oak Grove 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 Oak Grove 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 Oak Grove.
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 Oak Grove. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Oak Grove 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.
