“Billy had a wonderful time at Lauryn’s! I came home to find a very happy and well looked after dog! Lauryn was great throughout my time away and sent regular updates and pictures of Billy, and I could see he was being well looked after. She also prepared some food for him which I had forgotten to drop off, which was a very nice bonus. I would absolutely recommend Lauryn!”
“Deemie was very sweet and responsive! My dog took an instant liking to her and followed her sweet Chewie around. She was very accommodating to my senior dog and his needs. I’d happily recommend her services to anyone!”
“Excellent boarding location. Will use again anytime we are going out of town and can’t take the pups. Daily updates with pictures and our dogs definitely enjoyed their stay. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing our fur babies were in good hands…”
“Melissa was great ! All paws up here. She truly went above and beyond; she sent us daily updates on our Fancy (pictures and descriptions of her day) so we always knew how she was doing. Will definitely be booking with her again for our next vacation.”
“Rodney took such great care of our Grady while we were away for a week! Grady is a Velcro-type dog, always wanting to be near his humans & experiences separation anxiety. Rodney sent us pics & reports once to twice a day to assure us Grady was doing well. Took him for lots of walks and gave him lots of attention. So grateful to Rodney for caring for our silly boy and putting our minds at ease so we could fully enjoy our trip!”
“Amy was amazing! We were a little nervous about leaving our dog with someone we didn't know. Amy immediately put us at ease and made us feel like our pup was the most important dog on the planet. She is extremely professional and answered all my texts quickly. She provided photos and updated us with how things were going daily. After meeting her we knew she would care for our dog like she was one of her own. She was extremely flexible at changing the dates of stay when I'd accidentally clicked the wrong days. Even though they were very last minute. Her compassion for animals is truly genuine as evidenced by the model she's set for her children. They, too, took to our dog and treated her like a real princess. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our pupper.”
“Constance is a really special person. Great communicator, kind and open. She was open to do a meet and greet before Teddys actual staycation and allowed us to see her home and meet her pets to make sure everyone gets along. Once we dropped Teddy off she sent pictures every day! Communicated very clearly and kept me informed of Teddys well being. She was accommodating when we had little curve balls thrown at us and we have absolutely no complaints at all. Your fur babies will be in good hands with Constance! We will be booking again for our next vacation.”
“I needed a last minute boarder and Brandy took my Eva with no hesitation!! She is amazing, she sent me videos and pictures of my dog just being her silly self and it really put my mind at ease. 10/10 highly recommend”
“Elizabeth was great! She took time to do a quick meet and greet with Oscar before hand. She gave us updates throughout Oscar’s stay. I could tell our fur baby was happy in the pictures! Thank you so much for taking care of Oscar!”
“Suzanne was incredibly flexible with scheduling on short notice and took great care of Juno! She sent multiple photos and messages of Juno with her cats and I would definitely choose Suzanne again if I need a sitter.”
“This was our first time using Rover. Tate and Rosie, our two yellow labs, had a great overnight stay with Ellie. She gave them plenty of attention and activity - like going to dog camp! We picked them up happy and tired the next day. Thank you for taking good care of them, Ellie!”
“Savannah was absolutely amazing with my dog. She was very responsive and sent me daily photos and texts to let me know how my fur baby was doing. Her farm is perfect for dogs and she took them on walks around the walking paths.”
“Shelley was amazing!!!! I was updated on a regular with what my dog was doing and how he was acting. She's extremely kind and gentle and we will be using her and her services again and again!!!!”
“Tashaun provided excellent services when it came to caring for my baby Nino. Tashaun watched my pup for 4 nights. He sent pics of my pup everyday to ease my worry. I will definitely be using his services again and I recommend you use them too. It was a pleasure to have Tashaun assist us.”
“Renee was great, I can't say it enough. I'm happy I found her to take care of our two dogs. She was very flexible and treated them like her own. They loved her huge yard and had tons of playtime with other dogs. We will definitively have them stay with Renee for our next vacation.”
“This was our first time using Janel and we will be back! She gave us daily updates and sent us pictures of our girl having fun with the other dogs. Great communication, easy drop off and pick up. 100% recommend”

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 Retz 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 Retz.
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.
You and your Retz 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.
