“Lyra and Scott took great care of Ruby. They followed our instructions that we had for her and even gave her extra attention when she got a little sick. They were flexible with the pick up time as we didn’t know exactly when we would be there to pick up and kept us informed about Ruby thru pictures and texts.”

“Jared was exceptional. He and his daughter took in our two golden retrievers as their own and I think that’s all we can ask for as a pet parent. I would highly recommend anyone staying in the Williamsburg choose Jared as your pet sitter. We will definitely be using him again.”

“Three visits in, and Mrs. Crystal continues to exceed our expectations. She’s attentive, consistent, and truly understands Jaxon’s needs. We always receive thoughtful updates, and Jaxon comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. It gives us real peace of mind knowing he’s with her on a staycation lol😃 So grateful we found her on Rover, highly recommend! Thank you ❤️”

“We are so happy we found Bryan! After a bad pet transport, our Scotti has had aggression issues being around strangers. Bryan had no problem taking him and calming him down quickly. He is his normal sweet self at Bryan’s home and he loves the whole family. They take such good care of him and always send lots of updates and pictures. We feel confident taking vacations knowing he’s in good hands!”

“Amy was amazing! We were a little nervous about leaving our dog with someone we didn't know. Amy immediately put us at ease and made us feel like our pup was the most important dog on the planet. She is extremely professional and answered all my texts quickly. She provided photos and updated us with how things were going daily. After meeting her we knew she would care for our dog like she was one of her own. She was extremely flexible at changing the dates of stay when I'd accidentally clicked the wrong days. Even though they were very last minute. Her compassion for animals is truly genuine as evidenced by the model she's set for her children. They, too, took to our dog and treated her like a real princess. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for our pupper.”

About: My dog helped me write this poem to explain my worth as your Sitter! In every bark and wagging tail, I see a story, soft and frail. With patient hands and gentle grace, I make your dog's world a safer place. I know the leash is more than a rope— It’s trust, it’s care, it’s quiet hope. I walk them with joy, not just a chore, Each sniff and pause, the moment I adore. I speak their language—soft and kind With treats and toys so well-designed. I know when it's time to play or feed And when it’s time for lullaby indeed. From muddy paws to sleepy eyes, I greet each dog with no disguise. They feel it in the way I care— I am not just there, I stay aware. A bowl well-filled, a belly rubbed, a sweet cuddle, or a playful tug. I am present, calm, a steady friend, From morning light ‘til day’s soft end. What makes me a great Sitter is plain to see: You let each dog just be—and be free. I hold their hearts with quiet pride, A trusted soul, right by their side. I work from home. Even when I have to leave, it may be 2 hours at the most. So trust, your furbaby will have plenty of care and attention. There is a large dog park for your furbaby to play and run under constant supervison. I have a calm dog who is super protective and careful around puppies, toy dogs and ederly dogs. Due to my profession, I am background checked to work in school systems, and enter properties due to real estate. This is a safe and trustworthy environment for your furbaby!

We are so thankful that they were able to accommodate Gary on such short notice. They provided frequent updates throughout his stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Gary was well cared for and treated like one of their own pets. We truly appreciate their flexibility, communication, and care. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a loving and reliable sitter!

Anna was so helpful to us when we visited the area for a few days since the hotel didn't allow dogs. We booked her within the day as we were driving from DC. She was active on updating us on how our dearest doggo was doing and sent a lot of photos. Her cutie doggos and cat helped our dog as well, so HUGE thanks to the paw-assistants. Our dog was happy during the stay in her house. Thanks Anna!

Jaberlee was an 💖 AMAZING 💖 sitter while I was away on a small birthday trip that turned into getting stuck out of state longer than planned because of a huge blizzard. Not only was she so commutative and responsive to the last minute booking modifications, she sent the cutest pictures of my baby everyday with updates about his eating habits or him slipping on ice while out on potty breaks! 😂 Her Labrador(?) was the sweetest girl and I’m so glad Haru got along with her, as he’s not used to bigger dogs at all. I will 100% book her for future sitting and I 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and caring sitter in the area. ☺️♥️

Highly recommend boarding a dog with Kris!! He is extremely responsive to messages and booking requests. We needed a Rover on short notice for our 1.5 year old Goldendoodle and Kris replied immediately confirming his willingness to take care of our dog. We were abroad for 8 days and Kris sent photos daily, showing our dog having a great time with his own dog. Kris was also attentive to our Doodle's unique grooming needs. He knows how to take good care of dogs; we would highly recommend his services to anyone and we will be undoubtedly be relying on him again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Williamsburg on Rover is $40 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $61 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 395 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Williamsburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

100% of sitters in Williamsburg 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 Williamsburg 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 Williamsburg.

<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 Williamsburg 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.
