About: I have hands-on experience dog sitting for a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments, providing attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s needs. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, administering medications when needed, maintaining routines, and ensuring a safe, clean environment. With my background in healthcare, I’m especially comfortable monitoring for changes in behavior or health and responding calmly and responsibly. I treat every dog as if they were my own—making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I do have a side job as a private in home caregiver for an average time of 30 minutes to an hour every morning, Monday through Friday. I’ll have plenty of time to play with your fur babies! I have availability for boarding 7 days a week. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. I stick closely to feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific instructions to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. In my home, I create a calm, secure space where pets receive plenty of supervision, affection, and structured care. I’m experienced with administering medications if needed and always monitor for any changes in behavior or health. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their owner is away.

About: Like most, I have had dogs my entire life. I have raised them from as little as 6 weeks old, all the way up to the elderly hospice ages. I have raised multiple huskies (very strong pullers), great danes even little pocket sized pups. While fun and stimulation are key to a dogs growth, during my stays/ walks safety is the primary goal. That means minimal or no street crossing if possible during walks, no dog parks, no interactions with other dogs or people (even if they say they know your dog); you will get your dog back exactly how you left them, happy and in perfect health. I am currently working full-time. I have full availability weekends, early weekdays and nights. If you have any questions, concerns or just anything you would like to go over feel free to reach out. While I have my own way and preferences on how to take care of a pet. Upon meeting I will walk you through my process and everything I will be doing. As the owner, your preferences and style will be given priority over mine during my stay.

About: I've been a lifelong dog lover, with decades of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I've raised multiple Border Collies over the years and even participated in agility and herding competitions, so I understand the importance of exercise, mental stimulation, patience, and getting to know each dog's unique personality. I also have years of experience boarding other dogs in my home alongside my own Border Collie, Murphy, so welcoming furry guests has always been something I've enjoyed! After 16½ wonderful years together, I recently said goodbye to Murphy. While no dog could ever take his place, I have a whole lot of love left to give, and opening my home to other pups feels like a wonderful way to share it. Having cared for Murphy throughout his senior years, I also understand the extra patience, attention, and gentle care that older dogs sometimes need. I work from home, which means your pup will have plenty of companionship, attention, and affection throughout the day. Whether they're a high-energy adventurer or a professional couch potato, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and completely at home while you're away. **Your dog won't just be a guest in my home. They'll be treated like family!** One of the biggest perks of my schedule is that I work from home full-time, so your pup will have plenty of company throughout the day! I'm home most of the time, making it easy to incorporate potty breaks, playtime, walks, meals, and plenty of cuddles into my daily routine. After decades of having dogs of my own, caring for them is second nature to me. I'm used to planning my days around four-legged family members, and I genuinely enjoy having a furry companion nearby while I work. Whether your pup prefers lounging beside me while I work, playing in between meetings, or enjoying a little outdoor time, I'm happy to accommodate their individual needs and routines. My goal is to keep their schedule as familiar and comfortable as possible so they feel right at home! My home sits on over an acre of fully fenced property, giving your pup plenty of room to run, explore, play, and enjoy the fresh country air. Away from the noise and hustle of the city, my home offers a peaceful, relaxed environment where dogs can feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Inside, I maintain a calm, cozy household where your pup can relax, nap, and enjoy plenty of affection and companionship. Since I work from home, I'm around throughout the day to provide attention, regular potty breaks, and outdoor playtime. I understand that every dog has their own personality, comfort level, and routine. Whether your pup loves running around the yard or prefers curling up somewhere cozy, I'm happy to accommodate their individual needs. Safety, trust, and your dog's happiness are always my priorities. My goal is to provide a loving, low-stress home away from home where you can feel confident your furry family member is being cared for like one of my own.

She has a great space with lots of room to play and even has a friendly pup next door. She kept us updated every day with lots of pictures, videos and other fun things Tahoe was up to that day. Highly recommend Andrea!!!”

About: I've had my own dogs since a young age. I currently have 2 dogs, so pet care is part of my daily routine. I have a spacious fenced in yard and pups are walked daily. I'm home a lot and I have my own pets to tend to. I own a local home service business so I have a very flexible schedule. I have a good sized fenced in yard, extra kennels, and extra seperate rooms if needed due to dog aggression. Dogs are always let out to potty throughout the day, plenty of engaging play time, and daily walks.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Stafford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 394 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Stafford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Stafford 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 Stafford 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 Stafford.

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 Stafford. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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 Stafford 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 GA 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.
