Cannot say enough amazing things Jacob and Sarah. Boarded my puppy with them for thanksgiving and she was treated as if she was part of the family. I will always chose them first for my boarding needs.

Stephanie was a lifesaver, accommodating us at short notice. She even drove for a meet and greet to learn about our dog. She kept our dog happy with daily dog park visits and us with pictures and messages. She is amazing!

Rebeca cared for my two, beloved dogs for 8 days and did a fastastic job. My dogs ate well, enjoyed her back yard, and had no problems in her care. The photos she sent were adorable/heart-warming. Rebeca is a loving, kind person and her care of my pets was loving and kind. I recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent dog sitter.

Tina and her lovely daughter help take care of our Sammy when we needed to be away for an extended period to help my ailing mother half the world away. She was assuring in the difficult time setting up the booking while arranging for air tickets and gave us regular pictures and updates that make the separation tolerable for us.

Omg! Hannah is the sweetest! This is the first time my family has used ROVER and we were blessed to find Hannah! We didnt just choose Hannah.. she in return chose us! She loved and cared for our fur children as if they were her own! She was so considerate for our wants and needs for our furbabies and in the end I just wanted for both her and our furbabies to just enjoy each other's company during their stay with her. We honestly could have not been any more lucky to have found Hannah.. as a person she is just a sweetheart. Everyone please keep in mind that we cannot expect for our furbabies caregivers to provide to our furchuldren the exact way we do at home but I can guarantee Hannah will try (and probably succeed) and give your babies love and care that anyone would hope a pet to receive. Thank you Hannah for being you!

Jenn was an absolute lifesaver after we had a last-minute cancellation. She stepped in without hesitation and took wonderful care of our dog, Draco. From the start, she was kind, responsive, and reassuring, which immediately put us at ease. Draco was clearly well cared for and happy, and we’re so grateful for Jenn’s flexibility and reliability. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.

Jim took great care of our senior dog, Teddy! He sent pictures and responded to any questions or comments I had very quickly. I needed to adjust my pick-up time kind of last minute and Jim was extremely flexible and accommodating. Might be the first time Teddy wasn't super grateful/excited to be home again, which to me indicates Teddy enjoyed his stay at Jim's place. Thanks, Jim!

Christie was great - kept us informed, sent us videos and took plenty of time to get to know our doodle puppy and gave her plenty of exercise and love. Also, when a massive rainstorm hit just before pickup, she gave us some extra time to get which was greatly appreciated. She is caring and offered suggestions about diet and treats and worked with her on her first nite getting to sleep in a strange place. Her large doodle ended up being a great play buddy outside. We will use her again for sure.

Ben & Ariel were absolutely wonderful with Mishka! We’ve used several sitters this year, and this was the first time she came home so clearly happy, relaxed, and genuinely well loved. That alone means everything to us. They kept her active with plenty of walks, gave us terrific updates, and sent lots of photos so we always knew how she was doing. It was obvious they weren’t just watching her—they really cared for her and made her feel at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We will 1000% book with Ben & Ariel again and would recommend them without hesitation. Thank you both for taking such great care of our girl! ❤️🐾

Heather was professional, kind, attentive, responsive, warm, and knowledgeable. It was my first time leaving my dog with a person I didn’t know and I was somewhat nervous. Her one on one meet and greet put all my concerns at ease. Her knowledge of dog behavior and her obvious ability to know what a dog is communicating and then respond appropriately was very comforting. Her dog China was a wonderful companion for my dog and when I returned to pick her up, she was excited but obviously exhausted from her days long play date. My pup Is high energy, people oriented dog and Heathers care was just what she needed! I will be using Heather everytime from now on!

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.

Vickie did a great job taking care of my dog, Rocky! A friend was supposed to dog-sit for me but fell through the night before I was going out of town. This was my first time trying Rover, and I was lucky to find Vickie. She responded quickly to all of my messages, from my initial request all the way through Rocky’s stay. Rocky was comfortable there and was clearly happy when I picked him up. He especially enjoyed having a nice fenced-in yard to run around in. I will definitely contact Vickie again when I travel!

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Stafford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Stafford on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 2,087 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Stafford. About 91% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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.
