“This is the third time Tamara has watched our little guy, and she is the best! We get lots of pictures of Max during our time away, which we love. Thanks, Tamara!”
“Walter G. and his loving family ? were very Wonderful! Our Beagle dog “Wrangler” felt comfortable immediately at their home. Walter and his family was very understanding and caring towards him. Our dog can be very shy sometimes and yet he seemed to really warm up to the family very quickly. Inclusive, one of his little girl’s got so adorably attached, that it was so heart warming to see her shed a couple of tears ☺️ We truly highly recommend Walter G. and his family. He will most certainly be on our top list for boarding and care and we will most certainly be honored to have them take care of our boy again.”
“Min & Matthew were great! My pup has some anxiety problems. They were very patient with her and were able to settle her down without using the medication I sent just in case she needed it. I loved all the pictures and videos. They gave our dog lots of love and snuggles. Will absolutely will be using them again in the future.”
“Maki and Joel are exceptionally kind Rover hosts! They were patient with my anxious dog and communicated frequently with me, including multiple photos. I cannot say enough good things about them!”
“Our pup had a great time and felt right at home! He enjoyed hanging out with the family (human and canine). Cindy was very communicative during his stay, and we enjoyed seeing pictures of their walks plus playtime and snuggles.”
“I can't say enough wonderful things. Katherine very appropriately vetted my dog to make sure he would be a good match with other dogs prior to agreeingto have our guys stay for a week. She sent me lots of pictures and updates throughout the week putting my mind at ease that everything was going well. The space is wonderful with lots of room and he came back home exhausted from playing with new friends. Our dog did not come home with any issues picked up from a new environment or new dogs. This was an absolutely wonderful experience and I have full trust in leaving our dog with Katherine.”
“We’re so grateful for the love and care our pups received. It meant everything knowing they were not just safe, but truly happy while we were away. The sweetest part was how much our doggies adored her kids you could tell they were having the best time together. We came home to a couple of relaxed, happy dogs, and that says it all. They will be going back forever now!”
“Haejin and Herscel were great dog sitters for our 2 golden doodles. They gave us regular updates with pictures and videos, made sure our dogs were comfortable and got enough outside playtime to get out all of their energy! Would highly recommend to anyone in need of boarding your pets outside of your home.”
“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.”
“Victoria was a great match with our 6 month old puppy who had never been away from us. She has a great setup, wonderful demeanor and a passion for pet sitting. When I came to pick her up, my puppy ran to greet me with all the enthusiasm I could hope for. THEn she ran back to Victoria. I think that’s the best testament to how welcome and safe she felt with her.”
“Our dogs absolutely loved their stay and can’t wait to go back and spend more time. Absolutely delightful. This family loves fur babies. It’s nice to know that our dogs are safe, happy and having a great time while we are away.”
“Colleen is so caring and knowledgeable about dogs! Kept me updated with photos - my dogs were happy campers at her farmhouse! Plenty of space to roam safely within a fenced pasture.”
“Maisy, our one year old Labradoodle had an amazing vacation! She doesn’t get much play time with more than one or two dogs at a time and really craves socialization. She got to meet and play with many new friends and had a blast! She came home tired and happy. The space is so great with plenty of room for the dogs to run around and get their zoomes out. It was her first time staying there and was reassuring to get daily updates and pictures from Tammy. We will definitely be repeat clients! Thank you for being such wonderful hosts to Maisy!”
“Would like to thank Audrey for the wonderful care she gave our baby(Doggi) from 5/16-5/21. Doggi had not been around other dogs and Audrey made sure our baby was safe & happy. We received pictures and texts everyday letting me know how our baby was doing. Audrey took exceptional care of our baby and we will definitely be using Audrey again when we have to leave our baby behind. Thank you Audrey for making our experience away from home a safe and pleasant one. Monica”
“We had a wonderful experience! Pluto was very well taken care of, and it was clear that he received lots of love, attention, and affection throughout his stay. He had an amazing time playing with Otis and enjoying all of his toys. It makes us so happy to know he was comfortable, entertained, and treated like part of the family. We truly appreciate the care, kindness, and attention given to him. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pet. Thank you so much!”
“Bella is the best. My Summit was well taken care of for the week. Daily pics and videos helped bridge that gap of separation. Highly recommend and will be using her again in the near future.”
“Terri was amazing. So chill and relaxed around our sensitive dog. She is one of those rare sitters that does not have her own dogs or cats and is 100% dedicated to yours. She has a house and yard that are peaceful and quiet and in a great neighborhood for interesting walks. I would 100% recommend Terri, she is an absolute gem.”

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

- 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 Shannondale 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 WV 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.
