“Tulasi and her family have done a great job taking care of my dog Zuri. Zuri's last stay was her fourth stay already. They do a great job communicating about her care and send regular updates and pictures. I have no doubt Zuri will always be well taken care of at Tulasi's house. It is a great stress reliever to know my dog is in good hands while I am out of town.”

She gave me good updates and communicated with me so I would not worry for this was a first time my baby had to stay with someone that she didn't know. She was wonderful, and I would definitely ask her to keep my baby again.”
“What a great experience with Mirabel and her family. They treated Cady as if she were their own. I could tell from all the pictures that Cady was having a terrific time by the smile on her face. She had so much fun getting introduced to all the farm animals and having so much room to run and play. Will definitely re-book with them!”

“This was our first time needing someone to watch my mother's senior dog Curly. Jessica has a calm demeanor and put us at ease when we met her. She kept us updated on Curly’s 10-day stay. We were pleased with using the Rover app and with Jessica.”
“I can’t recommend Melissa enough! She stepped in last minute when my original dog sitter canceled, and she truly went above and beyond. She took amazing care of my dog, providing not just the essentials but also lots of love and attention. I could tell my pup was happy and well cared for when I returned. Melissa is reliable, kind, and clearly has a natural way with animals. If you’re looking for someone you can trust with your furry family members, she’s the one!”
“Thank you Terry for taking care of my furbaby. Anyone looking for a great sitter should really consider Terry, my pup was wagging her tail and as happy as she could be when I arrived to pick her up and in talking with Terry I felt great about leaving my pup with her for the trip I took and will be scheduling with her in the future.”
“Kacie was absolutely incredible with our dog Brodie! We were in town for our wedding at Bella Collina and she went above and beyond and you can tell she is just super caring of all the dogs she takes care of. We worked out an arrangement where she would bring our dog to our venue for our ceremony and it went sooo smooth! I would 100% recommend her, especially for any others who may be coming in out of town and might not get a meet and greet like we couldn't. Our only regret is that she didn't live closer, as she would definitely have become our go to sitter after this experience.”
About: I've taken care of animals since I was 5 years old. I have always loved animals and taking care of them. My family has a poodle, a great Pyrenees and 10 cats which we all rescued from the streets. I work everyday 6 am to 3/4 pm, but as soon as I get off work I can come and spend the rest of the day playing with your loved ones. I treat my pets like gold and like the princess and princes that they are and would love to give the same care to yours. I am clean and responsible so you can have peace of mind while away that your pets are in the best possible hands.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years. My first dog, Baby, taught me what true love and loyalty mean. Since then, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, as well as farm animals like goats and even a pony! As a gentle and patient pet mom, I always treat every pet like part of my family. I’m very attentive to their needs, from feeding and walks to emotional comfort. I have experience with both playful puppies and calm senior dogs. My home is peaceful, full of love, and perfect for pets who need a safe, caring environment while their owners are away. I’m a stay-at-home mom with a calm and loving routine. I spend most of my day at home caring for my baby and our pets, so I have plenty of time to give your furry friend attention, playtime, and care. I enjoy spending time outdoors in the yard and making sure every pet feels loved and safe. I can easily adjust my schedule to your dog’s feeding, walking, or nap times I take safety and comfort very seriously. In my home, pets are always supervised, loved, and treated as part of the family. I make sure they have fresh water, shade, and space to play or rest peacefully. I introduce new pets slowly and calmly to make sure everyone feels safe and relaxed. I’m experienced with animals of different sizes and temperaments, so I know how to read their body language and keep them comfortable. My yard is safe and spacious, and I always stay nearby when pets go outside. Whether at my home or yours, I treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own.
About: I’ve cat and dog sat for people throughout the years. I love all animals and provide them with all the necessary care and love they need. I work 2 nights and 1 full day a week and home taking care of my own 2 dogs the rest of the time taking them out to the dog park throughout the day to potty. I have stayed at another clients home to take care of her dog and did drop in visits throughout the day for other people. I live in an apartment and don’t have a yard but there is a big dog park.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Spencer on Rover is $40 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
93% of Spencer sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Spencer landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Spencer 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 Spencer.
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 Spencer 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.
