“This was our first time boarding our baby Zoey and everything was perfect! Megan communicated with me and sent me pictures and videos everyday while we were away. I am very pleased with her services and will rebook with her again!”
“Rosalina and her family are incredible. Roscoe was well cared for and so happy. Rosalina sent me pictures throughout the stay and she even bathed Roscoe before I picked him up because he got dirty playing outside. Highly recommend (and I am a very nervous dog mom).”
“Even though my request was last minute, Sonja and Phil were kind enough to accept and take care of Leo. I could tell Leo was well cared for and in good hands while I was away. I really appreciated their flexibility and willingness to help on such short notice. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend”
“Hannah was the best choice for Luna’s first staycation! She was super friendly, asked all the important questions and you can tell in the way she interacts with your pet, that she really cares for animals! Her communication and updates were top tier, her responses were quick and she made this process easy for a first time Rover user (aka me). I definitely plan to use Hannah for Luna’s future care!”
“It was my first time booking with Heather and we had an amazing experience! My dog Stella looked very happy in all the photos I was sent. She kept me updated and made me feel like Stella was in good hands. Will definitely be a returning customer”
“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.”
“Rebecca was great! She invited us for a meet and greet prior to booking. She communicated with me both via text and photos while I was away. She was willing to let my pick her up early and kept us up to date on how our puppy, Stormi, was doing during a very long extended stay as I was on an international trip for 2 weeks. She also had some other puppies who had the same energy level as our dog during her stay, so Stormi has someone to play with. Rebecca has a great fenced in back yard where the pups can run and play!”
“I booked Chris to watch over my disabled pup while I was away for a week. Not only is Chris a wonderful, kind, and polite person but he was also attentive to my boy’s every need. Chris maintained the strict schedule I gave him including daily medications and ample playtime to ensure my dog was happy and healthy while he was away from my care. Chris was responsive to my messages and even sent picture updates completely unprompted. I was never left wondering how my pup was doing because Chris went out of his way to constantly update me. After seeing the property Chris resides on, I was comforted to know that my dog would have plenty of room to run around and get his energy out. Chris’s own dogs were friendly and very excited to meet a new friend which I viewed as a great opportunity for my own dog to increase his socialization skills. I’ll be the first to tell you that I am extremely wary of who I allow to care for my boy and I can say, without hesitation, that I was impressed with the intention and gentleness Chris gave my pup. I will certainly be booking with him again!”
“Erica is a great home away from home. I would recommend her to every one. She’s very accommodating. I can tell that she cares deeply for your pets by the questions that she ask when you first meet her. She’s reasonably priced and worth every penny. Thank you, Erica for your availability and wonderful service!”
“Jenn did an excellent job taking care of my boy on such short notice! She communicated well and sent updates with pictures twice a day. My pup was worn out from all the playtime he had! Would definitely trust to take him again!”
About: I have experience with animals who require both physical and medical challenges. I have nearly 15 years of experience with dog boarding in my home. I'm currently working part time (4 hours a day) so I can still care for your animal needs in my home with no problem. I have a fenced in yard so your dog can play freely but is still protected. My home is calm and quiet so your animals will feel safe.
“Heather is wonderful!! Bailey loved his first visit with her and Bombsky and just had a blast playing. We love that he got to go for a walk and that she is able to handle his kidney diet needs! We just feel so at ease knowing Bailey is in good hands and having an amazing time.”
“Tina is a hidden jewel. She took good care of our fur baby on short notice. To make us feel at ease, she also provided daily updates along with pictures. I highly recommend Tina for her outstanding customer service.”
“Jorge was great with our Teddy! Jorge was very communicative throughout the entire day Teddy was at daycare. Teddy loved playing with Jorge’s dogs in the yard and Teddy was SO TIRED when he got home ❤️”
“Rebekah did a wonderful job! I would highly recommend her. She was very thoughtful and attentive to my little dog, who is never been boarded anywhere. She did a great job!”
“Highly recommend! She took amazing care of our dog, kept us updated with messages and pictures. We felt completely at ease knowing our pup was in such great hands. Will definitely book again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stafford
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.
Very sweet and responsive. She was able to keep our fur baby at the last minute. Sent us photos to keep us updated. She kept her clean and my girl was not nervous when she left. Unlike our experience when she has stayed in large kennel facilities. Couldn’t be happier.
Tyera was absolutely amazing! She cared for Bruno as if he were her own. She stayed in constant communication about him sent wonderful pictures of them snuggling and playing. She truly has a kind soul and Bruno really took to her and her family instantly. Would definitely recommend and use her again in the future. Thank youu sooo much!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Stafford on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 2,075 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.
