“Jeleesa and her sweet family took incredible care of my dog, Penny. She asked all the right questions, made sure Penny stuck to her walk and feeding schedule, and sent so many amazing photos and videos. Penny does not trust easily, but within 30 minutes of me dropping her off, she trusted Jeleesa enough to be pet on the stomach! We will definitely be coming back for all of our dog sitting needs.”

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.

“I can't express enough how grateful I am for the wonderful care River receives at his home away from home. From the very first visit, it was clear that River was going to be treated like family. Their warm and welcoming environment makes every stay a delight. They go above and beyond to ensure River feels comfortable and loved. Whether it's engaging him in playtime, providing treats, or simply showering him with affection, their dedication shines through. I love receiving updates and pictures, which reassure me that he’s having a fantastic time. Knowing that River is in such capable hands allows me to relax and enjoy my time away. I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy home for their pets. Thank you for everything you do for River! 🐕 ♥️”

“This was my pups first time staying with Mickey and friends and it was great! Mickey’s years of experience working with dogs and friendly demeanor with my pups, made me feel comfortable having them stay over. This was the first time in a while we were away from our pups so I was a bit anxious, but Mickey’s updates with pictures were very reassuring! Would definitely have him watch them again soon!”

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.

We cannot recommend Lindsey enough! She has been absolutely amazing with our dog Soju and has provided exceptional care every step of the way. Our dog is a large, strong breed, and she has always handled him with confidence, patience, and genuine affection. One of our favorite things was receiving her regular photo updates, which gave us peace of mind and let us see how happy and well cared for he was while we were away. She has also been an incredible resource since he was a puppy, offering helpful advice, guidance, and support that has made a real difference. It's clear that she truly loves and understands dogs, and we always felt comfortable leaving our dog in her care. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and caring sitter. We are moving and will truly miss having her as part of our dog's life. Any pet owner would be lucky to have her care for their furry family member!

Tracey was AMAZING with my boy Jack. She sent pictures & updates daily, which I and my kids loved. She took him on multiple walks and a dog park daily. He came home and didn't move because he was so wore out. I really enjoyed her open communication. I will definitely be using Tracey in the future for Jack's boarding needs!

FAQs for Boarding - Stafford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Stafford on Rover is $44.13 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 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 2,102 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Stafford. About 92% 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.
