“This was our first experience with Rover, and I couldn’t be happier to have found Cristen and Michael. My pup was truly loved and cared for by them. There was no kennel—he had the run of the house, a fenced-in yard, walks and playtime, and I received wonderful pictures throughout his stay. It was clear that he was treated like one of the family. My pup is actually a senior citizen, and if he gets a vote on his caregiver, he’d pick Cristen and Michael. I would too. We couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience!”
“My pup has stayed with Hillary twice now, and she is the sweetest! She's been so helpful and flexible, and Brownie has had a wonderful time with her family both times.”
“Monica and her family were fantastic! Their backyard is amazing! Our dog loved playing with their dogs and was fascinated with their other pets. Monica was great about sending updates and pictures throughout the week. Our dog couldn’t have been happier. We would definitely leave our dog with Monica and her family if we are in the Hampton Roads area again.”
“I love the fact that Constance arranges a meet and greet prior to the stay to make sure my baby is comfortable. He thoroughly enjoyed his stay! Sweetest family and pets ever!”
“Once again our girls had the best time with Kamie & Patrick. The photos and the videos they provide us with show they have a home away from home. I'm sure the girls don't want to come home. We are very comfortable giving Kamie & Pat the responsibility of caring for our girls when we are away. They adapt their routine to fit our girls and we couldn't be happier with their service.”
“Lora was great with our young dog! She was so kind and sent daily updates about their time together. This was my first time using a sitter who was not family with a pet. She gave me complete peace of mind with her knowledge and experience.”
“Vianca took great care of Bo for 36 hours. We received a picture at the end of day 1 and he looked happy. When we picked him up he was happy and enrrgetic showing he had received excellent care. Thank you!”
“Gunna had a great time and made himself at home with Jessica and her kids. He had a fun time playing in the large backyard and on his walks. Jessica was quick to respond, gave us daily updates, and above all was able to watch Gunna last minute.”
“Brandy did an amazing job!!! Loved how friendly she and her boyfriend are and all the great photo/video updates we got daily!! I hated leaving my boy but he could not have been in better hands!!!”
“This was the longest I have ever been away from Simba (8 days)…he started off slow but Priscilla took care of him as if he was her own. She didn’t hide the fact that he was sad the 1st night…many sitters would have just said he is doing great. She made him feel at home and loved on him like I would. I appreciate Priscilla’s commitment and would highly recommend her for your pet.”
“Janelle was so amazing! My pups stayed with her for a week and they were so well taken care of. She provided me with daily updates and pictures of my babies, giving me the reassurance that they were comfortable and having fun! Make sure you book your next boarding with Janelle!”
“Dea cared for our 2 cats for nearly 20 days while our family traveled. We received daily updates that reassured us they were shown attention and love. One of our cats has a medical condition that requires extra help. Dea confidently took care of her needs and we picked her up in perfect health. Thank you Dea for looking after our precious cats like we would. We are happy to have a sitter to use in the future that we can trust.”
“Marcos & his brother did an amazing job looking after my dog. Always made sure to give me photos and always responded fast. I can tell my mochi had the time of his life there . 100% recommended to anyone who’s looking to board their fur babies”
“We came to VA to bring our son to college, the furbaby was slightly in the way (please don’t tell him I said that!)…so, I contacted Tyrah and she responded immediately and was willing to take our baby with short notice. Tyrah was an absolute god send. She was so polite, her place is super clean— I think my baby came back cleaner than I left him! lol… She sent me daily pictures of my baby settling in just fine with her. He came back mild mannered with his lover boy cuddly personality (usually he comes back from sitters pretty rowdy and jumpy), but not this time. I honestly couldn’t tell he had been away. As much as I want to keep Tyrah a secret (and take her back to GA with me), I’ll tell y’all how great she is and what an amazing gem you have in the Hampton area! She truly was the best! She did everything I asked and more. I appreciate her a million times over and will contact her whenever we’re in town! I will definitely share my amazing find with the Hampton U parents who stay home due to not being able to get a local sitter. Thank you, Tyrah!! 💕”
“Cody was fantastic with our two dogs! She watched them for two days and one night, and we couldn't have been happier with her service. She was extremely professional, friendly, and communicated clearly with us throughout the stay. She was even able to accommodate a last-minute schedule change without any hassle. Despite it being a short visit, she made sure to send photo updates and check-ins on how the dogs were doing. We highly recommend Cody and would definitely hire her again!”
“Kim is amazing! She stepped in and helped us out when we were out of the country and another sitter could not continue keeping our dog. Kim coordinated the transfer of care with the other sitter and drove 45 minutes to pick him up from her home when plans to meet half-way fell through. I was very stressed over the whole situation and she was nothing but patient and understanding. Her kind words and the frequent picture and text updates allowed me to enjoy the rest of my trip. Dollar (my dog) is a 10 month old, deaf bull terrier that is full of clumsy energy! He seemed so happy at Kim's house and she handled him perfectly. It is obvious that she has a lot of experience with various types of dogs. When I picked him up he was clean, fed, and tired from playing. She even had his blankets washed! She cared for him like he was her own and I could not have asked for more. Kim truly went above and beyond and I look forward to having her keep Dollar again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Yorkville
I was happy to find someone I felt safe leaving my pup with for an extended period during which I’d have little ability to be in touch. I wanted her in a situation where I knew she’d be happy and loved on, and Hillary’s profile stood out because she has lots of kids to love on and play with Summer. We are beyond happy with our experience using her!
Monica was outstanding! She was so kind, and cared for my Frenchie like she was one of her own. She sent me pictures and a little update almost everyday, and I'm almost certain my fur baby wasnt ready to come home lol She also gave her a bath and a pawpicure before she brought her home, which was a real treat and bonus! I would defn trust Monica again to watch my Nina:)
We cannot thank Meredith enough – she goes above and beyond when it comes to taking care of and loving our two dogs when we are out of town. Without going into detail, this time one of our fur babies had some medical issues and Meredith knew exactly how to tackle the problem and keep her safe. She always provides us with photos and updates, and we are completely at ease when our girls are in her care.
Jeff and Barb were wonderful! They handled all of our dogs' needs and we're communicative throughout their stay. Tank and Suvi had a great time and were tired out from all the fun they had! We will definitely be going back to them in the future, thank you so much Jeff and Barb!
Katherine had keep me posted of my 80lbs Dogther with video and pictures while I was away. When I picked her up, she was come and in a good mood. The total experience was reassuring and her response was reasonable. I will continue to have her care for Venus in the near future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Yorkville is $27 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $50 per night. On Rover, 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 November 2026, there are 932 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Yorkville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
95% of sitters in Yorkville 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 Yorkville 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 Yorkville.
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 Yorkville. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Yorkville 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.
