“We’re so glad we found Tara! She was absolutely wonderful with our furry family member during his 4-day stay. Tara and her husband treated him like their own, making sure he got plenty of walks, playtime, love, and pampering. It was such a relief knowing he was in such caring hands. He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of! A heartfelt thank you to both Tara and her husband for going above and beyond. We truly appreciate their kindness and care and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving home away from home for their pet! ❤️🐾”
“Sarah was wonderful with Murphy and Mazi. She kept me updated with pictures, handled their medications carefully, and clearly treated them like part of the family. I really appreciated how flexible and accommodating she was with my schedule, including extending their stay by an extra day when my plans changed. I would absolutely trust Sarah with them again.”
“i’m a repeat client with Anahita. she is very caring and took such a great care for my dog , Leo. we feel confident leaving our pet in her care . highly recommended. thank you Anahita”
“Thank you so much for looking after him like family! He came back super happy. I genuinely appreciated the constant feedback. And Coco wasn’t sad when I picked him up! We will be back again! Can’t be more grateful!”
“Alicia and her boys made my pups so comfortable, I wasn't sure they'd want to come home with me after the five day stay! She shared pictures and updates that warmed my heart and put my mind at ease for their first-ever stay away from home. I will definitely rebook with her in the future and highly, highly recommend her to others.”
“We always feel reassured that our pup is taken care of and they’re happy to have her. Daisy is treated like the princess she is. I highly recommend their family to watch your beloved pets.”
“I left my furbaby with Walter during my thanksgiving break during covid and i couldnt be happier. During meet and greet all precautions were taken while getting all details on my baby behavior and preferences as well as during drop off and pick up. My pup seemed extremely happy and loved during her whole stay. I received daily updates and pictures about activities. I would totally leave my baby with him again and totally recommend him!!”
“Tricia was absolutely amazing with our dog, Cece! She gave her so much love and care throughout her entire week-long stay. She also sent us plenty of pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind, and truly treated Cece like she was her own pup. When we experienced multiple flight delays and cancellations while trying to get home, Tricia was incredibly accommodating and understanding. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, reliable, and trustworthy sitter for their fur baby!”
“I had my usual sitter cancel on me last minute and had to emergency book someone. I am usually very very nervous to leave my fur baby with anyone but Sudharani made things very comfortable for me. Not only did she schedule a meet and greet but she actually took my little dude for an hour or two to make sure he would acclimate to the house before we left him with her. He was staying with her during the forest fires and she made sure to minimize time outdoors to protect his lungs, and sent me tons of pictures. I will definitely be booking her services again and would absolutely recommend her to anyone and everyone.”
“When I met Chris prior to leaving my dog with him, I felt confident leaving my 10 year old beagle in his hands because I could sense he genuinely cares and loves for animals. Toby immediately gravitated to him. During his stay, Chris provided daily updates with pictures; they went on nice long trail walks, enjoyed couch cuddles, and relaxed. I definitely recommend using Chris for your pets next stay!”
“Super great job. Love all the pics of walks and playtime. Great communication. Our two dogs even came back from their stay brushed, all their toys and blankets and food organized, and ready to go. Would definitely book again. They had a blast, and we loved seeing them have fun while we were away. Thank you!”
“Robert and Connie were amazing! They had Olly for 4 days and one morning and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I was a little nervous about trying Rover, but I’m so grateful for such a great experience. They were very accommodating and asked questions to ensure your dog is getting the best care. I was confident I was leaving Olly in great hands. I would absolutely ask Connie and Robert to watch Olly again the next time I go somewhere!”
“It was perfect and I felt wonderfully at ease leaving my dog with Anna. Even at our meet and greet visit I knew Jack would love it. Anna has a large fenced in grassy yard infront of the house, 2 really sweet, playful, medium sized dogs of her own who my dog loved playing with (and he wasn't intimidated at all like he was when we tried the dog park), 2 sweet boys who he slept and cuddled with, and he even got daily walks in addition to play. Anna has a dog loving, active family and kept me informed with pictures and videos that he was doing well and adjusted quickly (and was embraced) like a member of the family. What more could I ask.”
“This is an absolutely fantastic choice for a dog-sitter, in my mind. Leslie was loving, caring and she treated Frances, my terrier-dachshund with the closest and kindest attention—plenty of walks, balanced diet, happy human company to sleep with when she desired, and various places to rest—so Leslie passed those all those important measures.She also sent me photographs with comments fairly often, which delighted me and made me know that Frances was safe and happy! But then, of Great value was the fact that she always could find positive human companionship—her cousin came, and let Frances and another dog, sleep on his knee, looking utterly content, her roommate really liked Frances and showed it, and Leslie did too. AND there was always her dog, and then occasionally a neighbor’s dog or another client’s dog visiting for a number of hours. That was Heaven for Frances, and just what I was hoping for. A place where Frances could be, as Leslie put it, a member of a pack. NOT a large, in any way overwhelming pack, but a small pack, consisting of one or two or conceivably three other dogs, which she could be with. THAT and the essential human warmth which was very much present—was all I could dream of—and Leslie provided it. Thank you so, so much. I will definitely use her services again! Leslie is cause for peace of mind, great happiness and satisfaction for Frances and me.”
“Traci is amazing. Positive energy overflowing, and our Nala got along great with her Mavis. I know Nala will be lonely without her! Traci was perfectly accommodating with all of the logistics and easy to communicate with. She sent us pictures and updates. She is someone I could definitely be friends with, and hope to keep this relationship going. We're so thankful to her for taking such great care of our Nala. Thanks Traci!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Helen watching our energetic maltipoo, Yuki! Yuki is full of energy and loves lots of attention, and Helen handled him perfectly. It was clear from the start that she genuinely loves dogs and knows how to keep them happy and engaged. Yuki came home relaxed and content, which says a lot! We really appreciated the updates and photos during the stay—it gave us peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Helen for anyone looking for a caring and attentive sitter for their pup!!”
“My Golden had a wonderful 2 week stay with Karen. She sent videos and pictures everyday. Her whole family is so sweet and she has a beautiful property! Will definitely use her in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Purcellville
We had such a wonderful experience! She was incredibly kind and sweet, sent us pictures and updates, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving our dog in her care. It was clear he was treated like part of the family, which meant so much to us. We would absolutely recommend her and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!
Sarah and her family were wonderful sitters….our dog really enjoyed his time with them and especially loved the fenced in yard! We live in Pittsburgh and our regular Rover sitter was not available. We were visiting family in Virginia and are so grateful we found Sarah close by to my sister. We will definitely book with Sarah again and would highly recommend her! Great communication and a happy weekend for all!
Maki and Joel were fantastic. It's very obvious how much they adore animals and showing lots of love and attention to your special family member. They were very communicative, flexible and easy to coordinate. They provided updates and pictures throughout my dog's stay.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Purcellville is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $65 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Purcellville 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 Purcellville 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 Purcellville.
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 Purcellville. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 Purcellville 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.
