“Ashley did a fantastic job dog sitting Emma for me! Ashley was extremely professional and made sure to give me updates daily, including pictures of Emma. Ashley was happy to fulfill Emma’s daily routines as well as some extra care and attention. Thank you, Ashley!”
“I’m so thankful for Connie, she took care of my pup and showed so much patience with him. She sent so many pictures and videos of him playing inside and outside, and even showing him working on an agility course! I will 100% be using her services again in the future and would recommend her to a friend with confidence.”
“Jen was great with our super skiddish dog who doesn’t have much experience with other animals or people but Jen ensured she would do great! I got pics everyday and she’s so quick to respond! Definitely rebooking with her in the future!”
“Larissa did an amazing job keeping me updated and taking care of Henry! She sent great photos and let me know how he was doing throughout his stay. She has a great fenced backyard and her home was clean and comfortable, and she was so incredibly friendly and accommodating when I had to adjust my pickup time. I will definitely have her dog sit again!”
“Awesome! I absolutely hate leaving my Remy behind, especially when he has to be locked up in a kennel. I usually get such anxiety, but not with Eldeen, her husband Eugene and their kids. I was able to relax knowing that he was able to roam and play freely. Remy seemed pleased with his stay. I will definitely be a repeat client.”
“Anna, George and their family made Jamey feel right at home. He had a great week with them and was obviously happy and comfortable there. The huge fenced back yard was wonderful and George was very welcoming and playful.. Thank you Anna for the multiple updates and photos, and for taking such good of our pup.”
“I loved loved loved loved this experience. This was my first experience boarding Blue so I was extremely nervous. I had reached out to someone else 2 weeks prior so I literally found Erwin the same day because I never heard from the other person and I’m so glad she never reached back out to me. He was so responsive and immediately set up a meet and great to meet with Blue. We went over and all went well. Blue has never been boarded before and he had dogs and cats so I was a put apprehensive. So Erwin suggested we give her a couple hours there just to see if she warms up, by the time I was on the way to get her food and water dishes she had warmed up to him and his wife and I had gotten 3 pictures. I got daily reports, pictures, and updates just so I knew she was comfortable and I felt comfortable and I really appreciated that. Blue was excited to see me but she also looked like she was home while she was with this family so I definitely feel confident saying I’m the future when I have any business trips or family vacations I know where Blue will be staying if they are available!!! If you are having and second thoughts please don’t, I feel they took care of Blue exactly as I would have and even went out of their way to make sure she was comfortable. I think Erwin’s wife even slept with her because she knew she was sad being away from me which is so comforting because although she’s a pit she’s a cuddle bug.”
“My dog looked like he was enjoying himself so much, I wasn’t sure how to convince him to come home🤭 His previous stay away from home was terrible, and stressful, he returned with hotspots all over his body. I knew we found a good fit Anika because she only watches one dog at a time, more his speed. We received pictures and updates daily which eased his humans minds. I cannot thank Anika enough fo her care. See you soon!”
“So glad I found Charlotte! I was in need of a very last minute sitter which has never happened to me. I have one pup with severe separation anxiety and had to book without meeting for the first time so nerves were high. My pups went in and immediately made themselves at home lol. I love that the pups get their own separate area to relax in. Charlotte seems knowledgeable and I definitely appreciated her updates. Will definitely keep her as a sitter for future needs🐾”
“So happy we found Kelly! She was amazing with our new pup. She was very caring with him and he adapted well while boarding for a week with Kelly. So grateful we didn’t have to worry about our fur baby as Kelly was very communicative during his stay. We will definitely continue to you Kelly for our future boarding needs.”
“Professional, patient, proactive. We were withhout sitter two days before our vacation. Our scheduled dog sitter canceled on us. My husband received a recommendation for Jessica. We loved having our pups with her. Our dogs were well taken care of. We could tell they received TLC during their first stay away from us. We will always seek Jessica first for our future needs. She’s awesome!k”
About: I’ve had experience in pet sitting for minimum 10 years. Attention to detail and care for pets needs come first. Restrictions if any are considered as well. Morning, mid day, and evening walks are a must. As well as feeding, as frequent or less as needed. Pets will remain hydrated and have ample play time and relaxation time throughout the day. I offer a fenced yard with a seperate play area inside of home dedicated to pets. There will be ample space inside, or outside of home for pets to flourish and plenty of dog parks available if preferred.
“Monica was a joy to work with! I felt completely comfortable from the initial meeting. The photos and video of Remy during his stay were welcome treats. I knew he had a great time when I was more excited to see him than he was to see me after a week! Monica was also gracious to allow me to extend his stay a few days beyond the reservation when my original plan for pickup changed. I highly recommend Monica and I will definitely book again!!!”

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.
94% of sitters in Wakefield Corner 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 Wakefield Corner 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 Wakefield Corner.
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 Wakefield Corner. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Wakefield Corner 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.
