“Kate and her whole family were amazing! They all went out of their way to keep Bella comfortable and safe. I was very concerned leaving her, since she is nearly 18 and doesn’t get around very well, but my fears were unfounded. From the moment I met her I could tell that Bella would be in good hands. I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a truly caring and attentive dog sitter.”

“Rebecca was fantastic. She was a great communicator throughout the entire stay and took wonderful care of Lucy and Ethel. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in her hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter”

“Stephen and family have provided our pups with the best vacation - this isn’t boarding - this is their other home and truly love their Rover family. Thank you for all you do - from your hearts 💕”

“Your fur babies will be in good hands!! Great communication and pictures throughout their stay. One of our dogs has epilepsy and Nathan was great at letting me know when Vince had his meds! Thanks, Nathan for taking great care of our two pups!”

“Meredith is an angel with our sweet pup! She kept him for the duration of our cruise, and updated us with several pictures and a video. She was able to cater to our specific feeding needs, as well as administering medication. We are so lucky to have a puppysitter that treats him with such love and care.”


“Warren did an amazing job watching Saber for 10 days. He encouraged him to eat his food and kept him on his regular schedule. The care that he provided our dog was amazing and greatly appreciated.”

“Phillip did a wonderful job taking care of Onyx! She was happy, comfortable, and well cared for, which gave me great peace of mind. I really appreciated the care and attention Philip gave her, and I felt confident that she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Philip and would happily have him care for Onyx again!”

“Ingrid was amazing! I took a chance in contacting her for a last minute sit for our fur baby and she was very accommodating! Received updates and pictures and our fur baby was so comfortable. So glad that Ingrid’s kids loved our baby and were especially helpful in her care too! Warm loving home for your fur babies? Definitely will reach out again.”

“I love Audree. She is so patient with my Lyric. Lyric is a diva already and such a lovable little puppy. I hate leaving her to go anywhere and this is our second time using Audree and I feel so comfortable leaving Lyric with her. She constantly updated me and sent lots of pictures. She is definitely our go to sitter. Thank you again Audree!”

“Charlotte is still one amazing gal! She took great care of our older puppies on a weekend trip. She was very patient with their rambunctious behavior. She keeps us updated with pictures and texts, I trust her to care for our fur babies more than most family members! 😆 Thanks, again!”

“I was very happy with how Nala was cared for. She was treated like one of the family members. I have used Eldeen to board Nala on more than one occasion and she looks happy when she sees them. I could not have asked for a more professional team to care for Nala. Thank you!”

“Tracey provided excellent care and consistent communication for my favorite furry family member. He came home happy and healthy. Top notch care provided, highly recommend.”

“We felt very comfortable leaving our cat Ollie with Sarah, she treated him like he was her own pet. Cannot recommend her enough if you need to leave your pet for a few days. She really made Ollie feel comfortable and safe!”

“Traci watched our big senior boy for a week previously so when we had another week long trip, we knew Leo would be in good hands with her! Traci is very thoughtful and made sure Leo was comfortable, despite him being anxious being away from his family. She provided lots of updates and photos and we felt happy knowing that Leo was in good hands. Thanks so much, Traci!”

My old dog was comfortable and enjoyed his stay which says a *lot* bc he's a super anxious rescue. Makelle was very accommodating to his needs and I appreciated getting updates on how he was doing. If I ever need a place for him to stay again, I'll definitely be coming back💚

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 Shady Grove Corner home-away-from-home, 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 Shady Grove Corner.
<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 Shady Grove Corner 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 , 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 .
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.
