“Tamara was wonderful and worked with my sweet pup who’s had anxiety and made him so comfortable and happy in her home! We got all the updates and sweet photos and she was so wonderful daily with communication! Sam is excited to go back and hang out!! ☺️”
“Kristina was great! First of all I had some uncertainties in my travel plans that she was understanding about as I worked through the final dates/times. She shared pictures and videos during my dog’s stay. I could see he was comfortable there and having fun. Buster was well taken care of and I would book with Kristina again.”
“My two Aussies had a great time with Jessica. She came through for me when I lost my regular sitter due to a family emergency and she was great. She sent pictures, videos and was very responsive to my text messages. In the pictures and videos I could see that my boys were happy and comfortable. Highly recommend!”
“David and his family are amazing! He is very diligent in sending pictures and updates. Otis loves going over there. They give him lots of love, cuddles, treats, walks, and exercise. Otis is excited every time we pull up to the house and I know he is well taken care of when he is there.”
“Mozey loved Tahliyah! She is great with dogs and very communicative. She sent photo and video updates every few hours, which we appreciated. We will definitely be working with her again in the future!”
“Jordyn welcomed our dog Lilly into her family. Our first time using her, we look forward to returning with her care. She kept us updated with regular Emails and Pictures.. fantastic experience. First time using her. Lily stayed for two weeks.❤️”
“Couldn’t be more happy with Ashley’s boarding services. She kept me updated with messages and pictures, got more food when my girl was out, and even offered to clip Gamora’s nails. Which by some miracle her and her boy friend were able to. They are an amazing team and very clearly love the pets under their care. Excited because I travel regularly for work and it’s a huge relief to know that Gamora will always be in good hands.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was a teen. I currently volunteer at the animal shelter and pet-sit for friends and family when needed. I currently work from home with flexible hours so I am able to accommodate your schedule and your dogs needs whether that’s going on walks or general care. I live in a dog-friendly community with ample space and dog parks for your fur baby to run around! I can crate your dog if needed.
“Candice took very great care of Lucky, he was treated like one of her own. We will be coming back whenever we need her assistance agian. Great Communication and Professionalism. Thank you so much.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so lucky I found Edina! She was wonderful with my 8 week old puppy who is in the midst of potty and crate training. I received a ton of photos while I was away, which was great. She took him for 3 days of boarding and another day of day care. He was super excited to see her when I dropped him off for daycare so I know he felt safe and cared for while he was there. I won’t hesitate to use Edina again!”
“Abagail was fantastic with our super nervous dog. Her dog is very sweet and our dog really enjoyed playing with him!! We got lots of pictures and updates ❤️ KitCat will definitely be going back to play when we go out of town!!”
“My pup’s stay with Cindy was absolutely wonderful! Cindy was communicative, flexible, sent frequent updates and pictures, AND provided special care for my special needs girl. She and her husband are kind, friendly people who clearly love dogs. I can’t thank them enough and would recommend to anybody!”
“She is AMAZING. She cared for Mario and loved him like he was hers while watching him for 17 days!! Thank you so much, Kasandra- words cannot express how thankful I am to you!!!”
“Camila was the best! She took amazing care of our pup, sent daily updates and pictures, and was very communicative. We’d definitely use Camila again in the future - highly recommend!”
“Chaoran was great. She took good care of Elsa and kept me informed about how she was doing. When I went to pick her up, Elsa seemed a bit conflicted as to whether she would prefer to stay there or come home with me.😂 I took that as a good sign.”
“Henry is a great sitter who was able to accommodate care on short notice for my quirky Golden Koda, who cannot be near another dog as he gets fear reactive; thus he must be the only dog in care. We had a successful meet & greet, and Henry asked a lot of good questions. He communicated and sent pictures regularly and kept me informed about how Koda was doing. I felt comfortable leaving my pup for a doggie staycation while I got to spend a few much-needed days on a trip with some family members. I would not hesitate to have Henry care for Koda again or to recommend him to others.”
“Tiffany, David, and the kids were absolutely amazing. We were a little nervous leaving our puppy Cooper with anyone since he was so young. when we came for the initial visit I was instantly at ease. All 3 kids played so well with him, they sent pictures of Cooper on walks, cuddling with the kids, and even took him on an adventure to a soccer game! We could not have asked for a better experience and Tiffany & David and the kids will be the first people we call whenever we need someone to watch Cooper. Thank you again!!!”
“Sarah has been such a great sitter to our super energetic and playful dog, Tex. She is patient and kind and always sends us updates which gives us peace of mind while we’re away. Thanks for being so wonderful to our dog, Sarah!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stafford
I needed a last minute sitter in Stafford and did not want to leave my puppy at a big dog boarding facility or the vet where pets are often left alone. Thankfully, Vickie got back to me right away, and I’m so glad she did! She has a beautiful fenced-in yard tucked away in a quiet neighborhood where Penny was able to run around freely and even got to socialize with another dog she was boarding. Vickie quickly responded to me whenever I reached out to check on Penny and took excellent care of her, even reaching out to me to confirm her feeding routine. It was wonderful being able to go about my busy weekend knowing my puppy would be cared for by such a responsible and experienced sitter. Penny absolutely loved staying with Vickie, and when I am in need of a sitter again, she will be the one I call!
Couldn’t be happier with Jorge and his family for taking awesome care of my pups. I received pictures videos and communication while away which put my mind at ease. The pups seemed to really love them and were happy puppies while I was gone. I would definitely book with Jorge again. Thank you.
Alice was Professional and so kind! She assured us that our dog would be ok and took great care of her during our stay away. We don't usually have our dog stay with someone she doesn't know so this was a bit of a new experience for us. I would definitely recommend Alice for the future.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 2,106 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Stafford. About 93% of Stafford sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
