“Kristi and Drew take such good care of our dog! They treat her like she’s one of the family, and I never have to worry about anything while we’re on vacation. I highly recommend them!”
“Joanna was extremely professional and attentive to my dogs. It is obvious that she knows exactly what she is doing. She absolutely loves and adores dogs. Her home is well equipped and safe for pets. Her communication is excellent and she is an overall friendly person! I plan on sending my two dogs to Joanna’s again and highly recommend her services to others!”
“I’ve used Vincent twice. My dog loves going there. He makes homemade treats for his dog, which he graciously shares with mine. Mayhem is always happy when I pick her up but when she comes home it’s like she’s looking for her Vincent and Pearl. Vincent also provides frequent updates showing a very comfortable and happy Mayhem. I will definitely use him again when I need a dog sitter.”
“My dog had a great time staying with Melissa and was made to feel right at home. She sent daily updates with pictures and videos which I appreciated. Would recommend!”
“Jamie was an incredible sitter! She handled all my dog’s quirks well and both her, her family, and all her critters made my pup feel right at home. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again for future trips.”
“I highly recommend Christy! It was our first time leaving our year-old pup, Lily, and Christy made the entire experience stress-free. She sent daily updates and pictures, and paid amazing attention to detail regarding Lily's care. Lily came home happy and completely content. Thank you, Christy!”
“Rae is a kind and attentive person, and she made Oliver feel safe and comfortable during his entire stay. This was his first boarding experience not with family, and he had a good time. Will re-book!”
“Mariel and her family were lovely. We received daily updates with pictures and videos. They took Remy on all sorts of fun adventures, entertained him with new toys and gave him lots of snuggles. Our pup is our baby and we would happily use Mariel again in the future.”
“Seyla provided TOP TIER service over the weekend while I was away. This was my first time leaving Jax with anyone and I had an idea that he would do well with my 130lb Germanese. But he far surpassed my expectations. I am so grateful for the peace of mind I was afforded knowing Jax was in good hands. From the daily hiking adventure videos to the nightly progress reports...I never had to guess if my big baby was adjusting well or blending in well with the pack. Thank you thank you thank you, Seyla!! and the camera footage... totally James Bond!! Jax can't wait to come back and visit again.”
“Denisa is absolute best! She takes such good care of our puppy Butter and there is no one we trust more. She is so communicative, kind, and clearly loves what she does. She is irreplaceable!! We cannot thank her enough for all she does”
“We had a great experience with Joy and her family while they cared for our dog, Mickey, during our travels. Joy was incredibly warm and welcoming, and she made Mickey feel right at home—even though he usually struggles with separation anxiety. It was clear that he was happy and comfortable in their care. Joy also kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We're so grateful to have found someone so kind and attentive. Highly recommend Joy for anyone looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter!”
“Carrie and Matthew were absolutely amazing! They were able to watch our pup on short notice and couldn’t have been more kind and accommodating. They were incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, sending regular updates and tons of adorable photos. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our dog was in such caring hands. We highly recommend them and will definitely be reaching out again for any future pet-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!”
“Connor took amazing care of my sweet girl! We will definitely be booking with him again. He provided lots of pictures every day and gave her lots of walks and attention. Gave us peace of mind while we were out of the country.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so lucky I found Edina! She was wonderful with my 8 week old puppy who is in the midst of potty and crate training. I received a ton of photos while I was away, which was great. She took him for 3 days of boarding and another day of day care. He was super excited to see her when I dropped him off for daycare so I know he felt safe and cared for while he was there. I won’t hesitate to use Edina again!”
“Shanti took such great care of our dog and made him instantly feel part of the family! We loved the regular updates and could tell he was having a blast and getting absolutely spoiled. Our dog can’t wait to stay with her again! We cannot recommend her enough!”

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.
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! 🐾❤️
MC is THE BEST! I have a senior dog and I know that MC is experienced with senior dogs and every picture I get shows me that Jezabel is so calm and relaxed. She was super flexible with me in accommodating some additional days that I had requested before the original booking. Also, she lives in a place with lots of grass and little hills for doggies to climb. MC is my go-to sitter for my sweet girl, and I highly recommend using her to care for your baby.
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!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
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.

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.
