“This was Duncans second visit with Ali, he stayed over two weeks this time. He came back to me happy, healthy and showed no signs of stress at all. The daily pictures sent to me indicated he was having a fabulous time, enjoying Ali’s family and all the love provided. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing he was being well taken care of. Once again I can highly recommend Ali, she is wonderful!”

“Karen was amazing with Jazzy! Our dog has significant separation anxiety, but Karen immediately understood her needs and knew exactly how to help her feel comfortable and secure. The farmland is a huge plus offering plenty of safe, private space for dogs to play and explore. Best of all, Karen and her family treated Jazzy like one of their own. We had complete peace of mind knowing our fur baby was so well cared for, and we're incredibly grateful to have found a sitter we trust. The ample pictures and videos were an added bonus! We'll definitely be back again and again!”

“This is our second time using Erin. We rearranged our schedule a bit to accommodate her because I was more comfortable using her again than other sitters. I am nervous about leaving my little Lucy with someone because she is pretty used to being home with someone all day. With Erin, she or another family member is home with the dog most if not all the time. She also sends lots of pics and updates which is such a comfort when you are stressed about leaving your dog. My pup seemed vey content and got lots of attention! Would not hesitate to book Erin again!”

“May and Ally were excellent sitters for our two dogs while we went away on vacation. They are warm and welcoming everytime we interacted and my dogs were accepted into their family with open arms. We received multiple photos per day of their activities and were notified if anything came up. Thank you Nat and Ally for taking such wonderful care of my dogs we will definitely use you again when we're need to board our dogs.”

“Millie had so much fun at Ray’s house with Penny! Penny is such a sweet/gentle dog but matched Millie’s play style so well. There was a decent amount of updates/pictures and from that I knew Ray treated Millie like his own. He is super thorough and makes sure to really know the dog and their routine before even boarding. I will definitely be using Ray again in the future!”

A plus is that Zeke was totally wiped after spending a few days at Cameron's place. Cameron has a huge backyard which Zeke took full advantage of! Thanks again, Cameron.”

“I couldn’t be more grateful for Joanna’s exceptional care for my fur baby Oliver. Not only did she provide a safe and loving environment, but she also went above and beyond by sharing valuable tips for caring for dogs. Her beautiful grass yard was a perfect space for Oliver to relax and enjoy some fresh air, and it was clear that she genuinely cares about each pet she hosts. I felt completely at ease knowing that Oliver was in such capable and attentive hands. Highly recommend Joanna for anyone looking for a trusted and compassionate pet sitter!”

“Churro stayed with Viona and John for a week and had the best time. They have a big backyard where he got to run around and play, became best buddies with their Golden Retriever, Maxie, and also had so much fun with their kids. What we really appreciated was how comfortable they made us feel while we were away. They clearly know dogs and have a lot of experience, and they kept us updated every day with pictures and videos. Churro got lots of walks and attention. Honestly, he was spoiled in the best way. We could tell he was happy and well cared for the whole time. We’d definitely book with Viona and John again!”

It was the first time Murray stayed with Mellie, and she texted me whenever she had questions about him; she communicates very quickly.. It's very comforting knowing that Murray was getting such loving care while I was away. Thank you Mellie and Murray will definitely come to visit again-”

Daisy had such a great time with Kelly and her family! They had an inflatable water slide one of the days, which was Daisy’s dream. She looked like she was having a blast in all the pictures and videos Kelly sent! Daisy didn’t want to leave! Kelly was great and very communicative. We’d definitely book again!

This was the first time leaving my 5-month old pup with anyone and it was overnight too. Colleen made me feel so comfortable in making this decision for my pup. Colleen sent me an update in the morning to let me know how Nala did during the night. It was a great experience for Nala to be away from me and spend time with another person and some other pups. I highly recommend Colleen for your daycare/boarding needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Stumptown home-away-from-home, packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Stumptown.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Stumptown sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

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.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
