“Hank came home exhausted which means he had a blast. Cynthia did a great job in every Dept from communication to updates throughout the weekend. We were extremely pleased with her work.”
“Svitlana was great with our Border Terrier, Kimi. She sent updates and photos daily. She walked Kimi in the neighborhood and played ball with her in the yard. Kimi came home happy, so we will hire Svitlana again!”
“Soooo happy with Charissa! We drove quite a distance to bring Daisy to her for boarding because Daisy needed a little...no a lot...of professional training reinforcement. In our time at the Meet and Greet, we learned a lot about the care and training style Daisy would receive. We felt it to be truly balanced and something we could continue, in spite of our difficulties with giving corrections. In addition to seeing improvement, Charissa was very communicative, including many photos. (Excellent photos, too.) We will continue to make the drive and board with her in the future.”
“Our dog Lincoln loved staying at Christine’s place! She took such good care of him, and he came home very happy! We enjoyed our vacation without having to worry about our dogs comfort of safety. Thank you Christine!”
“Our pup had a wonderful stay with Hillary! We receive daily updates with photos. Our girl was given walks and lots of love and had a fun time while we were away! Thank you!”
“Nathan was wonderful! Very communicative and accommodating. Our pups had a ball, enjoyed great company and had no problems adjust to a new environment. Thanks to Nathan and his wife for being such a loving home away from home”
“We cannot say enough about the loving and caring environment created for our 🐶. She is 5 and had never stayed with anyone other than family and somehow Jani & Paul made it seem like our Lucy was with family. We cannot recommend them enough!”
“I left my pup with Edith over the holidays and she had a great time. There was a fenced in yard she got to tire herself out in running around with the friends she made with Edith's dogs. If the dogs didn't get along, there are different areas in the house to keep them separated, so there was never any worry that my pup would have a comfortable stay.”
“Caroline was great with our dog, and was a really nice person to meet and talk to. I can highly recommend Caroline to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet.”
About: Welcome! I’m Karmen, and I work as a school counselor. Caring for others has always been a big part of who I am. I’m also a lifelong animal-lover. Rover has become one of my favorite hobbies because it allows me to spend my free time doing something I love—helping others! Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home, my goal is to provide the same love, attention, and care they receive from you. I want you to have peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, happy, and treated like my own. 🐾🧡 I enjoy caring for dogs, cats, and other small pets through drop-in visits and house sitting for pets who are happiest in their own environment. 🐶🐱
“Brianne was amazing with my pup, Baci. She was quick to communicate, so kind, very flexible, and I picked up a happy dog. I highly recommend Brianne. This is one of my first dog sitting experiences and I’ll definitely be reaching out to her in the future!”
“Another wonderful stay with Scott and Sarah! They are terrific dog sitters - so kind and friendly and our two energetic dogs love to run around the woods with them!”
“James was amazing! My two puppers are only four months old and he was willing to take them anyways and he did a fantastic job! They were safe, well cared for, And he sent pictures and kept me informed. My one pup has a heart condition and he gave her medication as prescribed… I hope to use him again, the experience was fantastic… Go With James!!!!”
“Izzy did a great job watching Sulley! He had a great time playing with her dogs too. She was so kind giving me updates on how he was doing and even bathed him at the end!”
“A 3-month old puppy is not easy, but I had a family emergency and had to find support fast. Natalie quickly accepted my request, and was great with answering all my questions (I’m new to the app). She took great care of Oliver, and gave him all of the attention an active puppy needs!”
“Micki and Skye enjoyed the weekend with Tamara and her family. They even gave Skye a little birthday party for her second birthday. We know the pups enjoyed their stay because they slept the entire day after we picked the up. It was a pleasant experience for all of us. We would trust them with our pups again.”
“Lindsay was wonderful! She treated my pup like it was one of her own, paid careful attention to any requests I had, and was extremely accommodating and flexible overall. I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”

I cannot recommend Adrienne and her amazing family enough. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we met her and her family, we knew our dog was in loving and capable hands. She treated our pup like one of her own, providing plenty of attention, care, and affection while keeping us updated with photos and messages. What really sets her apart is that her entire family helped create a warm, welcoming environment where our dog felt comfortable and happy. Highly highly highly recommend.
Adrienne and her family are wonderful. They cared for our dog like she was their own. Her communication was superior, both before and during boarding. We got several updates including pictures and it was obvious our dog was cared for and happy. Would 100% recommend!

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.
97% of sitters in Scuffletown 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 Scuffletown 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 Scuffletown.
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 Scuffletown. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 Scuffletown 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.
