“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!”
“We had a wonderful experience with our pet sitter! Our dogs came back smelling amazing — it's clear they were well cared for and given plenty of attention. We'll definitely be booking again!”
“Melissa was great ! All paws up here. She truly went above and beyond; she sent us daily updates on our Fancy (pictures and descriptions of her day) so we always knew how she was doing. Will definitely be booking with her again for our next vacation.”
“Kacie was amazing!! She took such great care of our fur baby. She was great from the meet and greet up until we picked our dog up after a long weekend. Wonderful communication, flexible with scheduling changes and sent us pictures every day! We will definitely ask for her next time we go out of town!”
“Shanae was so sweet and reassuring. She made sure to communicate with me everyday and sent pictures/videos. My big boy was comfy and had so much fun at her home with Ash!”
“Best part about my pup's stay with Suzanne: She let Jackson be Jackson. He was able to just lounge around her house or wander around her yard as he pleased. And he got lots of snuggles. :-)”
“Amazing people, big backyard. Audi (pup) interaction was amazing, the way he was happy to give her kisses which reassured me he had a good time. Came home with pup and he plop right on the floor from the amount of fun he had. 100% will book again!!!!!!”
“Best dog sitter I've come across in the Hampton Roads area. Ive used for overnight boarding when I go out of town and my dog loves it here. Tavonne provides updates, or pics if needed and lets me enjoy my break as well. Definitely my go to sitter ❤️”
“Joseph and Ima were wonderful! They were very easy and kind to work with. Moose got along great with their dogs and had lots of fun! We are very comfortable having them take care of our dog and highly recommend if you’re looking for a great dog sitter!”
“Heather was awesome. Although my buddy was a bit anxious without me, Heather was able to keep her occupied so when she came home she just plopped right down in her favorite spot and went to sleep.”
“Wonderful with the pups and great with communication. Sent me photos multiple times a day to ensure my doggies were being loved and taken care of. Very friendly and accommodating and so easy to work with. They adjusted their schedule to my changing plans.”
About: Hi, I’m Halley! I’ve always been around dogs growing up and I also have my own. I have many years of experience taking care of dogs while family or friends have been out of town. I have been around small dogs and big dogs, so I am comfortable with any size. I’m always accepting new clients! As I do have a part time job, I’m usually only available on the weekends. If my schedule changes or I am available, I will always update my calendar. I currently live in a house but do not have a fence. I do have a patio that goes outside though. I will gladly send you pictures or video updates of your pup!
“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”
About: I’ve cared for pets most of my life, especially dogs, and animals have always been a big part of my world. I’m currently a proud pet parent to a pug and a puggle, so I understand firsthand the daily routines, personalities, and special needs that come with caring for dogs of all kinds. I truly love animals and treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I also have experience administering medications and following specific care instructions, giving you peace of mind if your pet needs extra attention. My goal is to help other pet owners feel confident knowing their animals are in caring, capable hands and to make sure every tail keeps wagging. I work full time, but my schedule is flexible, allowing me to accommodate pet care throughout the week. I’m available most mornings before work, afternoons after work, and in the evenings. I also work from home one day a week, which gives me full flexibility that day for walks and drop-ins Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities during walks and drop-in visits. I follow all care instructions closely, use secure leashes and harnesses, and stay alert to surroundings at all times. During home visits, I respect your space, ensure doors and gates are secured, and make sure your pet is safe, calm, and well cared for.
About: I’ll treat your dog with the kindness I treat mine. I have been fortunate to be a dog dad for seven years now and it has added more warmth to my life. I have a flexible jobs so I’m able to devote a lot of time to the wellbeing of a pet via walks and quality time. I have a friendly 7 year old corgi, named Liam. He’s one of a kind and works well with other dogs. That’s the only pet that I have.
“Laurie was a fantastic sitter for Loki. Right away he took to her like (insert favorite positive colloquialism here) and was very happy when we came back for the actual booking. Many pictures during his stay reinforced the knowledge he was having a great time. Definitely worth it and I’ll try to rebook during my next vacation need.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Yorkville
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!
Hillary and her family took excellent care of Oakley! She has 5 very sweet children. They all gave my dog plenty of attention over the holiday weekend. He was a happy boy! She also provided daily updates with a bunch of pictures. Highly recommend and we hope to see them again soon.
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
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 Yorkville 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 Yorkville.
<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 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 , 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.
