“Natasha and her family took care of our dogs like they were members of their family. Other places offered our dogs to " let out" every few hours from a shed. Natasha looked after our partially deff and blind senior citizen pug and our ball obsessed boarder collie in their own home. The dogs were always around someone who could play and love on them.”
“Cyrus was the perfect person to watch my dog while I was states away. He kept me in the loop daily with photos and updates. Max loved his time with him, I will rebook whenever I go out of town!”
“Pamela and Paul (and their dog Marlowe) are fantastic! They took amazing care of our pup, Riley. We did a meet and greet before our booking, and it was so nice to meet them and see how our pups would get along. It’s clear that they take this job very seriously and truly care about the pups as if they were their own. They have a lovely home with a fenced in backyard that the pups can run around in, and they let Riley sleep in their bed. 😊 Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer welcomed Vera into her home like she had always been there! Vera loved being there and was showered with love and attention! Jennifer will be our “go to” Rover sitter! Thank you!!!!”
“Kelsi was a great communicator. She responded to all of my inquiries immediately and was really flexible. Kane came home happy and exhausted from all the playing. I recommend Kelsi to anyone traveling.”
“Laura was fantastic! She sent updates and pictures everyday. Nellie had the most fun with Laura and her family. I loved how they really adopted Nellie into the family for the week!”
“Michelle always does a great job sitting my dog. I had a last minute trip planned and she was able to accommodate. I even had a delayed trip back home and she was very flexible which I appreciated.”
“We are extremely impressed and pleased with how Stephen and his family took care of our dogs! We have two basset hounds and they were provided with royal service, were pampered by the family love and attention. Every day of the stay Stephen updated us with reports with photos and videos and even being overseas we knew that our beloved pups are receiving a great care and happy! We will be using Stephen's service again and recommend to anyone to enjoy his high level of professionalism!”
“Emily was a great sitter for my fur baby! She was very thorough, from the initial booking to picking up my dog. I received updates and pictures daily. I will definitely be booking her again!”
“I had the pleasure of leaving my puppy with Shanisse and Kim for 1 week while I went away. I can't lie leaving my puppy that long was extremely hard for me. She sent me pictures and videos of Coco multiple times of the day. They have a really big closed in backyard and she seemed to love running around in it. As far as Coco being in the she house she was in her own space that was sort of "fenced" in with appropriate pet friendly gates. She had her own "condo" space. They did have one dog and a cat that coco got along with but I do not believe they had much interaction. I left food, toys and instructions that I do believe they followed. The communication was very good with Shanisse and Kim. I did not have much communication with Shanisse in person but more with Kim. They seem to work well together one for caring for the pets and one for the online support. Overall my experience was very good and I will be booking again. For reference my puppy is a cavapoo and is an out 15lbs. She did very well in their home. The posting says dogs allowed on furniture but I am not sure if she was in their furniture or not because I left her own bedding and she had her own little condo.”
“Ronda is amazing, patient, and very caring. She kept my puppy with great care, took him on walks, and sent many pictures timely. We will definitely go back to her next time onwards. Highly recommended.”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I grew up in a home with three cats and regularly pet sat for dogs and cats.

“Ollie just spent the weekend at Ayme’s house and I can’t write enough good things about her! Ayme is so responsive, sent tons of photos, and gave Ollie the perfect balance of playtime and snuggles so that I know his weekend was a great one! She has also done in-home visits with our older dog, and both of these great experiences mean we will definitely be booking with Ayme again and again. And I know our great experience with Ayme isn’t unique — she has tons of shining reviews and I’m happy to pile on with yet another one!”
“Our dog Georgie, an 8 month hound mix, had a great stay with Andreea while we travelled out of state. Andreea was very reassuring that Georgie would have plenty of attention, walks and exercise. We were kept updated by photos and texts as to how Georgie was spending her day. I would highly recommend Andreea!”
“Cindy was real good with Hudson and communicated with us while we were gone. She sent pictures of him to us. We will use Cindy again in the future when needed. Thank you Cindy. Jay & Lisa M.”
“Adam was an EXCELLECT sitter! You can tell he has the patience and passion to engage positively with your dog!!! Great customer service and communication! Would rebook again!”
“Nathaniel was a phenomenal caregiver for my big boy, Brock! 🐾❤️ I had to book care for Brock very last minute, and Nathaniel was incredibly compassionate and accommodating to both Brock’s and my needs with such little notice. Brock had a wonderful time and was so graciously cared for. Nathaniel went above and beyond by sending me pictures and videos throughout Brock’s stay, which gave me peace of mind and reassured me that my boy was doing great. I’d also like to highlight Nathaniel’s flexibility and his personal schedule, which worked out perfectly for caring for Brock. 10 out of 10! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you so much, Nathaniel, for taking such great care of my boy! 🐶❤️”
“Laura was wonderful. We liked her immediately and she was really good with my dog Banksy. When we walked in her home I knew we had made the right choice. Banksy got a lot of attention from Laura and had fun playing with her dog Daisy in the backyard. We really appreciated the videos and pictures she sent as well.”

Riley was fantastic! I had a last minute cancellation of another sitter and Riley was willing to accommodate at the last minute. She met Jackson and he was immediately smitten with her. Riley gave me updates and photos and kept me at ease in what was a very stressful situation. Definitely would use her again.
Our pup is very very shy, and incredibly sensitive. We wanted to make sure that she could stay with someone patient, understanding, and kind. Alexandra was amazing with our girl and she left with more confidence than we dropped her off with! All instructions were followed, we got frequent updates, and the service went above and beyond what we would typically expect from any dog sitter. Worth every penny and we will be booking again

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.
96% of sitters in Windy Run 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 Windy Run 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 Windy Run.
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 Windy Run. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Windy Run 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.
