“Tamara was great with Toby! She sent pictures of him every day during his stay! I can tell he was cared for as well as he is at home, and that he enjoyed his time with her! I have already rebooked with Tamara for my next trip! Thanks Tamara! :)”
“Kristen was great with my senior dog. He has incontinence issues and I wasn't sure I would be able to find any where that was able to care for him. Kristen was so easy going and rolled with all my boy's issues. So glad to have found her and plan to continue using her kennel in the future!”
“Teddy just came home from spending 3 nights with Ali and her family. When I picked him up he was all brushed out and handsome and he came home with a surprise toy that Ali gave him. These little extras separate her from other pet sitters. When he got home he was a bit out of sorts, but I think he just misses playing with her daughter and all the extra attention he got. I highly recommend Ali's pet sitting services.”
“This was Blue’s second stay, and once again, we couldn’t be happier with the care he received. Thank you for taking such great care of him and treating him like part of the family. The updates and communication gave us peace of mind while we were away, and it was clear that Blue was comfortable, happy, and well loved. We truly appreciate everything you did for him and would absolutely book with you again.”
“Barbara took amazing care of my anxious dog. She provided daily updates of how my dog was adjusting. Thankfully, my dog adjusted quickly and had a wonderful time playing with Dobby and the daycare dogs. I was only a little worried my dog wouldn't want to go home because Barbara took such great care of her.”
“Anahita was absolutely wonderful with my 1.5-year-old boy, Ranger! He’s still all pup-full of energy and curiosity, but she handled him with so much patience and care. She was incredibly responsive and respectful, keeping me updated and continuing to work with him on his manners and behavior. It’s clear she truly loves dogs. Our boy was in such good hands—highly recommend!”
“It was sort of last minute however, Elisa & James were able to accept my request. They are fantastic. They treated Ms. Ellie like their own. They took care of our furry baby with great hospitality. Hope to be able engage with them again.”
“What can I say? Sarah was fantastic! The whole experience was so easy and wonderful for our dog. Sarah was flexible and very responsive. Super accommodating. She kept us supplied with lots of updates and photos during the whole visit. Our hound sometimes has anxiety during new experiences but she was so well cared for that she felt immediately at ease when we arrived and through the whole visit. Sarah and her wonderful family took such good care of her that I would absolutely want my dog to stay with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Maki and Joel and their family took great care of Ragnar. They treated him as part of the family and that really made me feel comfortable. I can’t thank and recommend them enough!”
“It makes me nervous to be so far away from my fur family but Kelly took exceptional care of the boys and sent updates everyday. It was clear they were as comfortable with their visit as I was. Thank you Kelly!”
“Another great day with Tara! My little guy was well taking care of and Tara kept great contact and sent plenty of updates and pictures. We already have another stay on the books with her!”
“My dogs Huey & Edward had a great time with Alicia & her boys. So happy to have found a great rover near me that I can trust with my dogs! She gave them great exercise & so much love.”
“Tetiana was fantastic!! Our fur baby had a fantastic time and was very well loved. All the pictures and videos were really nice to see as CaySea transitioned with Tetiana and family for the weekend.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Baxter received from Ray! Since this was our first time leaving Baxter with Ray, we were a little nervous, especially since Baxter was staying for only two days. But Ray immediately made us feel comfortable and reassured us that Baxter was in good hands. Throughout his stay, Ray kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was wonderful seeing Baxter looking happy, relaxed, and comfortable. Ray was attentive to his needs, gave him plenty of love and attention, and made sure he was well cared for. When we picked Baxter up, he was happy and completely at ease, which told us everything we needed to know. We could tell he had a great time and was genuinely cared for. Thank you, Ray, for taking such wonderful care of Baxter and making his first stay with you such a positive experience. We truly appreciate the updates, love, and attention you gave him. We’re so glad we found someone we can trust, and we would definitely book with you again!”
“Leslie was awesome! She had Trapper for day care and kept him busy playing ball which he LOVES, and took him for a walk. He really enjoyed running around her backyard which is perfect for the dogs to run and play! She sent a lot of pictures and videos to let us know what our boy was up to. We are already planning our next booking!”
“We are immensely grateful to William and his family for the exceptional care they provided to our elderly dog, Bentley, while we were on vacation. Their constant updates, complete with pictures, gave us peace of mind and showed just how happy Bentley was in their care. Their home and spacious backyard were ideal for him to explore and relax. We are confident that he was well looked after, and we will definitely choose them again in the future. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of trustworthy pet care.”
“Yang was amazing with Mochi!! Whenever I was wondering how Mochi was doing, Yang sent me a bunch of pictures of Mochi. I never had doubts to how she was doing and how she was behaving. Mochi is hard to trust new people but she felt instantly at home with Yang. If you are on the fence, go with confidence.”
“Walter and his family are amazing! We are new pet owners and they let us come over for a meet and greet prior to booking to help calm our nerves. Our puppy was excited to be there with his caring children. He would give us updates with pictures and videos throughout her stay. When our flight was delayed and diverted to another airport, Walter was gracious enough to have her stay one more day. Thank you for taking such great care of our girl! We look forward to working with you and your beautiful family again soon!”
“Sri and Aparna were wonderful hosts to Cody. I had a last minute cancellation for coverage and they responded quickly. He enjoyed their fenced in yard and time with the family, including their cute dog. He got treats for entertaining them. Great experience.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Philomont
Lily had the best time during her stay with Marsha and Geary! They welcomed her like family, were attentive to her needs, and provided lots of love and play. We were grateful for daily updates with photos. It was evident at pick up how comfortable she was in their home. We will definitely book again in future!
Marsha and her husband Geary were fantastic dog sitters for our dog. We've booked with them twice so far and the experience has been really good. They are friendly and easy going and cared for our dog as if he was their own. Their flexibility with dropoffs and pickups is also super convenient. We will definitely be booking with them again in the future!
Opi and Pia are usually so stressed and tired when they come home from boarding or hanging out with other dogs. That was not the case at all coming back from Kristen’s place. They were able to relax in her home either her senior pups as well. I wish we found her sooner!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Philomont 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 Philomont.
<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 Philomont 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.
