“I recently had the pleasure of using Christopher for 4.5 days, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the level of care and professionalism. From the moment I dropped Titus off, I felt at ease knowing he was in capable hands. Overall, I highly recommend Christopher to any pet owner looking for trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable dog care. We’re grateful for the wonderful care Titus received and will definitely book again.”
“Megan is absolutely amazing. I never worry for a second if my 2 babies are okay. She is very flexible with her schedule and always there when I need her. My babies always come back home very relax and I can tell they were very much loved. She is very flexible with her schedule and always there when we need her. The best sitter ever!! We will be back soon.”
“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!”
“Heather and her husband Jim own and operate Gigi’s Funny Farm in Catlett and are loving, caring sitters. It’s like a doggie nirvana with acres of land for your furry family to run and play and a cozy indoor rest and sleep area. I was apprehensive to leave my newly adopted pup, Josie anywhere because of her issues. Let’s just say Josie is “special” lol. Heather handled her problem behaviors beautifully. She has tons of experience and handled my problem child ha, ha with love and care. When we picked her up, she didn’t want to leave 😆. I wholeheartedly recommend you leave your furry family with her 💕”
“I have 2 dogs that are polar opposites; one that is fearful and cautions, and the other one very social and goofy. We felt very comfortable leaving them with Karla, she gave them the time needed to acclimate and warm up, and they had a blast! We also appreciated the constant pictures and updates as to how they were doing and getting along. Thank you Karla for taking such great care of our Basil + Cashew!”
“Heather has a great setup for a dog like ours: lots of playmates and a fenced yard to play in. We wanted Chewy to get a fun-filled vacation complete with lots of running and roughhousing with other dogs. We think he got it because he's been sleeping two days straight, LoL.”
“Sonja and Phil were very kind and welcoming. They did a great job making her feel at home and getting settled in. Sammi recently had spinal surgery, so they also ensured she was safe during her stay. Thank you so much for caring for my girl and also your rapid reasons to any inquires/messages.”
“Plenty pictures of my 2 precious frenchies enjoying their stay. My pups had a sweet spread! Wooded neighborhood with what appeared to be A LOT of walking trails. Truly warms my heart knowing I have a great place to keep my babies while I’m traveling. Thank you!”
“Thank you so much, Riza, for taking care of Princess\ the photos you sent gave me peace of mind\. I truly felt that Princess was in good hands\. I really appreciate your kindness and the love you showed her\. I would definitely trust you to care for her again\. Thank you\!”
“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! ❤️🐾”
“Lana was amazing with my dogs! I needed a last minute sitter for my two pups at the last minute and she was nice enough to help me out. She is such a nice and genuine person that loves animals! My pups were very comfortable staying with her. Thank you Lana 🙏🏽”
“Milu loved staying with Phillip. We could tell by the pictures and videos he shared with us that she was happy and comfortable. We would definitely booked with him again. 100% recommended.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our little guys this weekend. Also thanks for the updates it gave my wife peace of mind while we were gone. We will definitely be working with you in the future.”
“Christie was thoughtful and ensured the safety of all of the pets that were in her care the week we boarded our dog. She did meets and greets with the pets and owners so everyone was comfortable. When we dropped our dog off she was excited to be there and couldn't wait to go in. Our dog enjoyed her time at Christie's. Christie provided videos of the dogs playing.”
“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!”
“Yoda spent 10 days with Seyla, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She had such a great time that I’m pretty sure she thought she was on vacation. 😂 Seyla is an excellent animal caretaker, and you can immediately tell how much he genuinely loves animals. All of the animals in his care are incredibly well looked after—plenty of walks, good food, lots of attention, playtime, and fun. Staying at Seyla’s house is basically like going to a doggie resort! The dogs get to play, run around, swim, and just have the best time. One of the things I appreciated most was how communicative Seyla was. He sent me multiple videos of Yoda every single day, so even though I was away for 10 days, I felt like Yoda never really left me. I could see how happy, comfortable, and well cared for she was throughout her entire stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. Seyla is also incredibly accommodating. My friend was supposed to pick Yoda up for me, but his flight was delayed by a day. I contacted Seyla, and he had no problem extending Yoda’s stay for an extra night. I would absolutely trust Seyla with Yoda again. Knowing that she is somewhere safe, loved, well cared for, and having the time of her life makes traveling so much easier. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like one of his own. Yoda will definitely be back! ❤️🐶”

Audree was amazing! She made sure to update me throughout the day and was very patient with my doggy and the medication that he was taking at the time. She made sure to make my pup felt comfortable and at home. She even gave him a bandana to send him off back home with me and he looked SO cute and happy when I picked him up. She was extremely pleasant and understanding. Would definitely book with her again!!
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!
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.

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.
