“Karen is wonderful. I am so happy I found her. She sent me lots of photos while I was away. I can tell by the daily photos I received that he was having fun and was happy. Thank you very much Karen for taking good care of my baby.”

“Musa and his family were so good to our dog. She was very happy there and I really appreciated Musa and how communicative and thoughtful he was. I definitely plan to have my dog stay with him whenever we travel again!”

“This stay was a quick one--just under 24 hours--but, like always, Daisy was well cared for by Ron! He consistently takes her for long walks and makes sure she is comfortable. He is great about sending photos of Daisy enjoying her outings and naps.”

“Ruidi took wonderful care of my pitbull mix Sunny. She sent lots of nice pictures during the stay, and she took the time to cook yummy chicken and broccoli for Sunny to enjoy. Sunny usually eats dog food. So I'm sure this was a lovely vacation for her. Ruidi is a loving and caring dogsitter, and I would recommend her!”

“Shi Ming / Frankie did a great job hosting my dog, Hopper. Hopper loves Jealous, Frankie’s Bernese Mountain Dog pup, who is as gentle a playmate and companion. And they have a great yard and basement to play in. Also. Frankie was able to be flexible and cared for Hopper an extra day when my return flight was unexpectedly delayed by six hours. When I need someone to care for Hopper again, I’m definitely contacting Frankie and Jealous again.”

“Parker really enjoyed her stay with Andrew and his family! She came home very happy and relaxed. Andrew was a great communicator, sharing lots of updates and cute pictures. He made sure she was comfortable at all times and ensured she was okay sleeping on the first level when she showed apprehension at the stairs. As an experienced dog-owner, Andrew was confident regarding Parker's specific care instructions and ensured she had all her meds and food. I am looking forward to booking Andrew again, I know Parker will be excited to spend more time there!”

“This was our first time leaving our lovely Maddie with someone outside the family. Sujan was amazing! He was clear from the onset that Maddie would be in good hands. Very communicative, shared a lot of pictures of Maddie during her stay and helpful on picking her up. Highly recommend him and his family! It’s great to know that we have a place for Maddie when we travel.”

“My only hesitation with leaving a review is that John and his family will get so much attention that they’ll be booked next time we try to use them! Kidding, sort of. Seriously though, they were wonderful. Very communicative and thoughtful. One of our pups is super nervous being left, and John and his wife sent lots of pictures and reassured us that all was going well. We couldn’t have been happier with the visit and we have already booked them again!!”

“Jorge and Alejandra were fantastic. They kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout Kia’s stay and she seemed to have the best time. I would absolutely choose them to watch my baby again. Thank you both so much and for being flexible with my pick up and drop off 💕”

“It was our first time boarding our dog anywhere, and we were unsure how she would do, because she was a recently-arrived rescue, and a very timid dog. We didn’t need to worry, though, because Carla and her family were the best choice we could have made! Nellie was well-loved, and so well-cared-for! Carla provided us with photo updates every day. As an added bonus for Nellie, Carla’s husband and children are also dog lovers, and they were so sweet and patient with our very shy dog. We are so happy to know that Nellie has a safe home to go to, when she can’t be with us.”

“Our big poodle had an amazing time with Amethyst. She listened to all our concerns about his anxiety and she was extremely accommodating about keeping him comfortable. We feel like he is so safe and cared for with her and look forward to letting him stay with her in the future.”

“Mario was able to take our pup even with short notice and sent me messages daily to let me know how she was doing. We’re happy we were able to find Mario and look forward to having him watch our girl again in the future!”

“Brianna was wonderful! She took great care of my dog for three days and sent me beautiful pictures throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I highly recommend Brianna and would definitely trust her again. Thank you!☺️”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Leo! John was absolutely amazing — from the very start he was super responsive and so kind. Leo can be picky about rain, lazy when it’s hot, and a little particular about his eating (clean dish every time!), but John handled everything so wonderfully. He made sure Leo got his walks (adjusting for weather!), gave him all the love, and kept us constantly updated with sweet photos and notes that really gave us peace of mind while we traveled. Coming home to such a happy and relaxed pup says it all. Truly grateful for the care, attention, and thoughtfulness John showed. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone to love their pup like family!”

“Nalleli and her family welcomed my baby girl Sinder like one of the family! It gave me the peace of mind during my travels and I would definitely recommend trusting her with your fur babies! I got many photos and updates and she was super happy and loved! Thank you Nalleli!”

“Angela is great! I’m typically a sitter and this was my first time booking a service with Rover. Our young guy is new to the family and we had to board him unexpectedly. Angela was very communicative about her availability, she took great care of Kai even with him still learning new commands and interactions with people and dogs, and send pictures and videos every day! I would completely book with her again when we may need. :)”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wolf Trap
Carla is the absolute best! She is my #1 All-star. Honestly, I have never felt so supported when it comes to the care of Geneva. She goes above and beyond and is always willing to help whenever she can. I am so blessed that I found her and her family🙌🏾 Geneva is very bonded to them and looks forward to staying with them. So very grateful.

Scooby loves staying with Ron and hanging out with Loki and the other dogs. Ron has taken great care of him many times, takes the dogs on several walks every day, and sends pictures of the dogs enjoying being outside. We trust Ron with our senior dog and will continue to recommend him to others!

We're happy we found Melissa to watch our golden retriever while we're away. She's very responsive, provides great care, and has wonderful space available for dog walks and play. Our dog can be tentative in new situations, but hops right out of the car to go to her house. Melissa and her family (and her dog Stella) are a pleasure to work with and I don't hesitate to recommend her.
Tara and Robert always take great care of Scooby! They were especially kind this time to care for him while he was not feeling well, and kept us updated on how he was doing. They were also very flexible with our shifting schedule. We really appreciate their kindness!

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 Wolf Trap 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 Wolf Trap.
<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 Wolf Trap 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.
