“Shannon was a great sitter! She sent me pictures of my dog to show me what she was doing and how she was. She was flexible and great to work with. I highly recommend her!”
“Susan and Ken gave our dog the best care that he has received from any sitter in the Roanoke/Blacksburg area, including in-home sitters. We received lots of updates during the care period and our dog was returned happy and tired. We will definitely look to these folks for our boarding needs in the future.”
“Our Golden, Eli, received, EXCELLENT care and attention ~ and Katie kept us updated daily, including photos, which kept us from worrying and assured us he was happy and doing well!!!”
“John is an excellent sitter! I can’t say enough good things about him. He took such good care of our dog, sent twice daily updates, and provided lots of walks and enrichment activities for him while we were out of town. We know our boy Lu enjoyed his stay!”
“They looked like they had a great time! Was given plenty of attention and treats. Did not appear overly hungry or thirsty when we brought them back home telling me they were given plenty of food and water. Liked that Lydia has a fenced in back yard and appreciated the daily picture updates and video without me having to ask first. Was also able to get us in last minute and was very responsive. Would highly recommend!”
“We are grateful to have found Donna to care for our dog during our vacation. Donna provided updates on how our dog was doing and pictures showing her receiving great care and attention.”
“Very friendly and great communication. Erin sent several pictures throughout the weekend, which was great for my first time ever leaving my dog with a sitter. My pup also seemed very happy and cared for while I was away. Highly recommend!!”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Shawn! We left our two Yorkies, Brooklyn and Charlie, in her care, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the beginning, Shawn made us feel completely comfortable and confident that they were in great hands. She was incredibly caring, attentive, dependable, and treated Brooklyn and Charlie as if they were her own. It gave us tremendous peace of mind knowing they were with someone who genuinely cared about them and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well looked after while we were away. Leaving your dogs with someone else can always be a little stressful, but Shawn made the entire experience easy and worry-free. We came home to two happy Yorkies, which says everything! We would absolutely trust Shawn with Brooklyn and Charlie again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and exceptional pet sitter. She truly went above and beyond, and we feel very fortunate to have found her. Five stars without question!”
“Boarded my lab with Christy & Jonathan for the weekend & they were fantastic. Excellent communication & daily pics/updates. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience & will definitely use them again!”
“Elise was amazing! She took my booking at the last minute and cared for my dog, Mix, as if he were her own. While I was away, she sent plenty of updates and adorable pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear Mix felt loved and well cared for. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I’ll definitely be booking Elise again in the future. Highly recommend her services!”
“Carmen and her husband were absouloutly amazing with our two dogs! She has an amazing fenced back yard that are dogs loved running around in. Carmen was great at communicating and sending me pictures and they worked around their schedules to find a convientent time for us to pick up our dogs. I will definately consider Carmen next time we need to board our dogs.”
“Penny and Evan are amazing!! I was so impressed with how much love and care they gave to Sushi and Sasha. They walked, played with and petted my two dogs, as well as sending photos and videos. The best part is that the dogs really loved them and felt home!! I highly recommend and definitely will come back.”
“1st time using Rover App & 1st time getting a new face for our sweet ol pup 🐶 Rover is streamlined, user-friendly, and fast responses from potential sitters! Nancye did a Superb job taking care of our sweet boy! So appreciative of her loving care while we were out of town! Thank you Nancye!! 💜”
“Gretchen is an excellent sitter. Our dogs always have a great time with her and come back happy and tired from all the playing :) she is very professional and accommodating for drop off and pick up. It’s so easy to work with her. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Amazing sitter, took great care of my old dog Prince and kept a close eye on him. He has seizures and had one at Claire's home, I was very relieved to know he was in good care and she kept me updated throughout the weekend. Couldn't recommend her enough!”
About: Hello there! A little about myself- my name is Aleah and I am an animal loving nurse! We are new to this area as we moved here about four months ago! I volunteered at the SPCA for about two years, worked at Petco for a year and animal sat for family and friends during those times! I became a nurse about half a year ago and am deciding now that including a side quest like this would be nice for my animal loving heart when I’m not at the hospital! My twin sister also loves animals just as much, so if you decided this is the place for your fur baby to vaca then that means double the love! (Quadruple if you include our fur babies). We are very excited to meet new friends! My schedule varies due to working bedside as a nurse, but usually me or my twin sister are home! We will NOT accept times that one of us is not home. Your baby will be just as much of a priority to us as our own. We enjoy taking our fur babies on hikes, so if that is an interest we would be happy to take your fur baby as well! Our back yard is fenced in, but we won’t leave them outside without supervision. We go on regular walks around the neighborhood as well as playing with toys in the backyard!

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.
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.
95% of sitters in Wabun can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Wabun home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Wabun.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wabun. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Wabun 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 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.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
