“Camila is so friendly & sweet! I know our golden retriever absolutely loved her and her family! I had a peace of mind knowing he was in good hands and had daily updates thanks to Camila! I would absolutely use Camila’s boarding service again. Thanks again, Camila!”
“This is our second time boarding our pup with Jona and once again it was a stellar experience. She sends lots of updates, photos and is super responsive. Absolutely love boarding our pup with Jona and our pup was so excited when we arrived at her place to drop him off which already shows how much fun he had the first time around. 10/10 as usual! 🩷”
“Sarah has been such a great sitter to our super energetic and playful dog, Tex. She is patient and kind and always sends us updates which gives us peace of mind while we’re away. Thanks for being so wonderful to our dog, Sarah!”
“Jessica was absolutely amazing and incredibly attentive with our dog, Duke. Since we’ve only ever been away from him once before, we were a bit nervous, but she made the entire experience stress-free and reassuring. It was clear from the start that Duke was in great hands. She provided thoughtful care, stayed attentive to his needs, and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We truly appreciate the level of care and attention she gave our pup. We highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable. Thank you again for taking such great care of Duke!”
“Chelsea was wonderful with our senior dog, Nina. She sent lots of high quality photos and frequent updates. I could tell Nina was comfortable and had a great time. Highly recommend!!”
“Erin was especially delightful and attentive to our pup. I knew we made the right choice from the moment my wife and I were greeted. Erin and her husband politely introduced themselves and then gave us a brief tour of her home, reassuring us that the environment was safe and pet friendly. Our dog is especially shy, but took to Erin almost instantly. During the days spent away, Erin took the initiative to send us plenty of photos and briefly updated us on how our dog was acclimating to her home. This was especially appreciated because our dog is high energy, sensitive, and on medication. When we went to pick up our pup, he was both excited to see us and exhausted from the time spent bonding with Erin’s family and her dogs. Erin, thank you for opening your home up to Beau. You are very trustworthy, and accountable and it really shows in the way you cared for our pup.”
“So grateful to have found Mickey to watch my dog while I am away. He sent me pictures and/or videos each day to show me how he was doing and how much fun he was having, which really took the stress out of leaving him behind. He had his own vacation while I was gone. Will definitely book with Mickey again.”
“Yolismal and her family are friendly and welcoming. They were easy to work with, responded promptly to all my texts, and sent regular photo updates. They followed my feeding instructions, even though they are a little complicated. Most importantly, they gave my dog Gretel lots of love. Gretel is an anxious dog, but I could tell from her body language in the photos that they put her at ease. When I picked her up, she was calm and happy - and that made me happy.”
“Rosalina and her family are incredible. Roscoe was well cared for and so happy. Rosalina sent me pictures throughout the stay and she even bathed Roscoe before I picked him up because he got dirty playing outside. Highly recommend (and I am a very nervous dog mom).”
“Cheryl and Gustavo are amazing and I wouldn’t want to leave my pup with anyone else. He’s so happy in all the photos over the week and I’m happy to see he’s had some nice walks and playtime with other dogs. They are super flexible and communicative. I’m really appreciative of the care they give and allowing me to be stress free when I have to travel.”
“10/10 experience! I genuinely feel like Cocoa found her second family. They were absolutely amazing with her from start to finish and treated her like she was one of their own. I received regular updates throughout the weekend, which made me feel so comfortable and reassured knowing she was happy, safe, and being completely spoiled with love and attention. You can tell they truly care about the dogs they watch and do so much more than just “pet sit.” They made Cocoa feel at home, and that means everything to me. I never once felt worried or uneasy while she was with them while away on my trip because they were so attentive and communicative. I honestly could not have asked for a better family to care for my girl. They did a phenomenal job, and I am beyond grateful to have found people I can genuinely trust with her. I will absolutely be using them again in the future and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for loving, dependable, and trustworthy pet care. Cocoa was clearly in the best hands, and I know she will be so excited to go back! 🐾❤️”
“We asked Lilly to help us watch our Yellow Lab for 7 days. This allowed us to travel for spring break. Her family and other dogs (Lima is our dog's favorite) treated our dog like one of their own. She provided pictures each day which helped my son know that his best friend was doing fine. When we picked him up he was tuckered out from all the playing and was in great spirits. Overall, I'd recommend Lilly to anyone. We'll surely be using her again!”
“Michelle was amazing!! We had a family emergency where we needed a dog sitter ASAP. Michelle was very responsive and promptly accepted our request with open arms with no hesitation. Michelle and family were very welcoming! During our doggo’s stay, Michelle updated me constantly with adorable pictures and videos of the ample play and generous green space that Blaze enjoyed at Michelle’s property!! Blaze made plenty of friends and had a blast. Thank you Michelle and family!”
“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.”

And making sure they are well cared for! I have a fenced and spacious yard. My home is dog-friendly, clean and safe. I’ll keep you updated on your fur baby with photos, videos and messages.
“Melissa took great care of our Corgi! She sent lots of pictures of their countless walks and I know our dog loved her large fenced in yard. Melissa was almost immediate with any communication and very flexible with drop off and pick up times. We'll definitely look to her for future boarding needs!”
“Grant and Yunrui are a lifesaver! They handled my elderly dog with care and detail, even taking time for special medication/feeding routines. It is obvious they truly care about animals and go above and beyond. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”

Erin was absolutely wonderful with Archie and Toby! 🐾❤️ From the moment we dropped them off, we felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She took great care of both of them, gave them plenty of love and attention, and kept us updated throughout their stay. It was especially reassuring knowing that Toby, who loves cuddles and being close to people, and Archie, who has his own routine, were both comfortable and well cared for. Erin was kind, responsive, reliable, and genuinely treated our dogs like her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely trust her with Archie and Toby again. Highly recommend Erin to anyone looking for someone who will take exceptional care of their pets! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Rebeca and Roman are the only people we trust to care for Truffles when we’re out of town. They always provide frequent updates and lots of photos, which gives us so much peace of mind knowing that he’s happy, healthy, and well taken care of. We always feel completely comfortable leaving Truffles with them and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring sitters!
I don't know where to begin. I guess it all started even before the boarding - excellent communication, asked relevant questions, and just demonstrated overall enthusiasm and care for the boarding. During the stay, she provided pictures and updates, and again, just excelled in communication which made me feel comfortable and at ease. She was also very flexible with me with the pickup which I valued. 10/10, don't hesitate to book with her!
We love Lilly and her family! They always take such great care of our dog. They have been watching her off and on for years, back when she was young and now that she’s older and has oral meds to take. She is always well cared for and it’s hard to get her to leave at the end of her stay!
I can't say enough great things about Debra! As a first-time Rover customer, I was a little nervous about leaving my two pups, but she quickly eased all my concerns. From the very beginning, she was friendly, welcoming, and clearly loves animals. During the meet-and-greet, she treated my dogs like family! My travel plans included flying, and I ended up dealing with delays on my way home. Even with the unexpected schedule change, Debra remained incredibly kind, patient, and understanding. If you're looking for someone who will care for your pets as if they were her own, Debra is the person to call. She has definitely become my go-to sitter, and I look forward to booking with her again!
Veronica was great with our dog. It was most important to us that she only took a single client at a time. She has two small dogs as well who get along very well with other dogs, including ours. She was very responsive and engaged and sent us daily updates and pictures, which was reassuring to us while we were on vacation.
Ayla took good care of Zellah while I was on vacation! Her cat and my cat were a bit shy towards each other at first, but my cat loved being around other cats so she was quite entertained while I was away. Ayla ensured to keep me updated, send pictures , and allowed a last minute extension . The next time i go on a trip i will definitely be rebooking !!!! Great service🖤
We left our dog, Peaches, with Eileen for two weeks while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t have been happier with the care she provided. Eileen was incredibly loving, attentive, and treated Peaches as if she were her own. Throughout our trip, she was very responsive and kept us updated, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and enjoys caring for them. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we would highly recommend Eileen to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Eileen, for taking such wonderful care of Peaches! 🐾❤️

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
