“We feel lucky to have found Jim to care for our dog, Moose, when we are away. He sent a lot of photos and that always makes me feel comfortable to see that Moose is doing well. Will definitely use Jim again the next time we need boarding.”
“Tracey is wonderful! She is very flexible and has agreed to watch our pups last minute. Tracey watched a new dog for us without hesitation and went above and beyond! We are so thankful for her! Highly recommend!”
“I was a little worried leaving my small dog I adopted only 8 months ago with someone she had never met but Edina reassured me quickly that she would make her time away from me enjoyable and fun. She made it that much easier to work away from home, seeing photos of her playing, going for walks and cuddling with Edina’s daughter. Would definitely recommend and will use her services again!”
“Jessie was absolutely amazing. She communicated with us throughout our trip and asked us questions if there were any uncertainties about their care. They had a nice sized backyard they could run around and I appreciated that she replicated the sort of accommodations they were used to in our home. When I went to pick up our dogs, she provided me with thorough updates and I could tell our doggies were pleased with her care. I would definitely book Jessie again!”
“We rebooked with Katherine and Marc after a good fist stay a couple months ago. Less than a week before her scheduled stay this time, our dog tore her ACL. They cared for her so well and provided me lots of updates.”
“Ana is an exceptional dog sitter. She treated my pup with so much care, kept his routine, and sent frequent updates with photos and notes throughout the stay. He came home happy and relaxed, and I felt completely at ease the entire time. Five stars—would absolutely book again!”
About: I’ve been a pet sitter since I was 10 years old, caring for cats, dogs, birds, and rabbits of all ages. Experience with puppies and senior animals, and the extra care that requires. Available for overnights, daytime visits, and even bath time. I currently work full time but I am available in the evenings to love on your furry family member. I love taking dogs for walks or playing fetch. I have a crate to keep your pup comfortable in my home, plus a dog, cat, and two affectionate teenagers. If visiting a client’s home, I will love on the fur baby and make sure it has plenty of food, water, treats, and playtime.
“We have booked Nancy multiple times for boarding and drop in dog walks! Our dogs love her! Nancy is very communicative and very accommodating to our schedule! We trust Nancy with our pups, especially with our senior dog!”
“Michelle was awesome! I was nervous about leaving my dog in a boarding facility since I had only adopted Peggy from a rescue a few months ago. Michelle gave her a warm, home-like environment where I knew she was safe and well cared for while my family was on vacation. She sent daily updates, took great care of Peggy, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was out of town. Michelle was also incredibly responsive both before and after the booking, which made the entire experience stress-free. I'm extremely grateful for her help and wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!”
“Michelle was wonderful with my boys! What I appreciated most was her daily updates — she kept me informed about how they were settling in, how they were adjusting to a new environment, and how they were getting along with her own fur girls. The photos she sent were such a comfort while I was away. Her communication was also excellent. When a potential marking issue came up, she handled it thoughtfully and professionally — she was open to using diapers instead of crating, which I really appreciated her flexibility on. The one area I’d note is that she seemed to have a busy work schedule, as we all do… When I returned, Huku’s (senior) diaper was full, suggesting he had not been out for a while that day— something to keep in mind if regular outdoor breaks are important for your pups. But overall, Michelle is super caring and communicative sitter who genuinely looks after your dogs. I would certainly ask her again!”
“Cookie really enjoyed her stay with Sarah! From start to finish, Sarah was incredibly communicative and made me feel at ease while I was away. I especially appreciated the regular updates and adorable pictures she sent—they truly brightened my day. It’s clear Sarah genuinely cares for the furry family she watches. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Thank you so much, Sharyll, for your care and dedication to Kiko. Thank you for keeping Kiko's daily photos updated, especially during the difficult days, and for following Kiko's daily schedule just as I requested,I also appreciate your thoughtful feedback and regular updates. Kiko appreciates you very much and hopes to see you again soon. Thank you for everything!”
“This was our first time leaving our sweet dog with a non-family member or friend. I was nervous about finding just the right place for her but was so reassured when I met Rachel. Her communication was outstanding from the first contact... incredibly prompt and professional and also patient with my many questions. Her home was extremely clean and organized and you can tell she takes her job very seriously. I lucked out when I realized she lived a few houses down from friends... who said they’ve always been impressed with how well she cares for her ‘clients’ and how conscientious she is about their schedules. I had great piece of mind when I dropped Sydney off and she seemed to be comfortable from the get go. She had a great time and we will definitely use Rachel again!”
“David and his family were great care givers of Jack, they sent numerous update photos and he always seemed to be very happy and having a great time! We would recommend David and his family!”
“Oh my gosh where do I start!! I cannot say enough good things about Jackelin! She was absolutely amazing! She consistently sent me pictures and videos throughout the 3 days that I boarded my dog with her, She let me do a meet and great, she updated me throughout the day, and was fast to communicate with! If you’re looking for someone who truly will care for your dog as their own and will update you with pictures and videos throughout the day. Jackelin is the one for you!! Cooper will definitely be returning! ❤️❤️ Thank you so much Jackelin!”
“Carlos is the best! He sent so many pictures of Sophie having fun I wasn’t sure if she would want to come home! She even ate every meal with no problem and that is unusual for her. Thank you so much Carlos for taking such good care of my Sophie.🐶😊”
“Marcela was very flexible with timing, thorough in following instructions, and took extra care to make sure my dog was comfortable and safe post-op. It was nice to be able to relax on my trip knowing he was well taken care of.”
“Our pup, Bella, enjoyed her stay with Kalyn and it was great to know she was cared for well. From the meet and greet to drop off and pick up, Kalyn made the process easy and we could enjoy our trip without any worries about Bella. I would not hesitate to use Kalyn again for watching our precious pup.”
“Very good and kind man, respectful and caring. Kenneth took great care of my dog. I trust him a lot. He has a nice clean place to take care of the dogs. His daily rate is, thankfully, affordable. Will use his services again.”

Saroj takes such good care of our dog Oreyo. He has had back issues and she takes special care to make sure he stays safe to help prevent further injury. Oreyo was so happy to see her when we dropped him off and always looks great when we pick him up. She is someone that you can trust to take great care of your fur baby when you need the help.
We left our dog and cat with Heather for a week and were very happy with her sitting! She soothed all of the concerns I had and had good answers for all of questions. She definitely has check in/check out down to a science and prioritizes the pets safety and comfort. During their stay, she was communicative and provided multiple photos throughout the stay and was super quick to answer any questions or provide updates when asked. Both seem to have had a good time, we will definitely be using Heather again!
Rosalina did a wonderful job taking care of my dog! She kept me updated throughout the stay and sent plenty of pictures, which gave me peace of mind knowing everything was going well. I really appreciated her communication and the care she showed. I would definitely recommend her!
anthony did such a great job with both of my dogs, he is very efficient with keeping me informed about them everyday, by sending pictures & texts. i also really appreciate how detailed he is. i will definitely be booking with him in the future!! i highly recommend him
Jamie did a great job watching Henry! She kept me informed and sent pictures daily. Her dog was extremely friendly and accepted Henry immediately. I know Henry had a great time because he slept the entire day we picked him up. Would definitely recommend Jamie to anyone and would book with her again if we need a sitter.
I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the very beginning, Gustavo was incredibly kind, communicative, and caring. I felt completely comfortable knowing my pet was in such great hands. They treated my pet like their own and kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. My pet was happy, comfortable, and clearly well taken care of when I came back. It’s obvious that Gustavo genuinely loves animals and takes their responsibility seriously. I really appreciated how attentive they were and how easy they made the entire process. I would absolutely recommend Gustavo to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and loving to care for their pets. I’ll definitely be booking with them again!
Having grown up with dogs, and taken care of dogs for many years, I can not say enough wonder things about Kenneth. He was very loving and attentive to our two dogs. He consistently communicated and sent pictures while we were away. He also asked pertinent questions to ensure he had all the necessary information. We will definitely use Kenneth's services again.

Thank you for keeping Kiko's daily photos updated, especially during the difficult days, and for following Kiko's daily schedule just as I requested,I also appreciate your thoughtful feedback and regular updates.

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 Woodhaven 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 Woodhaven.
<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 Woodhaven 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.
