Roving through Virginia with Rover

  • Dinwiddie County

    Dinwiddie County

    Our pack spent a few delightful days in Dinwiddie County and the city of Petersburg visiting Civil War battlefields and other historic sites, hiking along the Appomattox River, and kayaking on Lake Chesdin.

  • Dickenson County

    Dickenson County

    Daniel Boone had the right idea when he traveled to this region with his dogs. We took the same pilgrimage, and like Boone and his pack, ventured to one of the most beautiful places on Earth—Breaks Canyon.

  • Cumberland County

    Cumberland County

    If you want to take a road trip with your dog, we suggest including Cumberland County and Farmville to the itinerary. If you want to hike, kayak, visit Civil War historical sites, and eat good food, then this is your happy place. Visit the High Bridge with your pack and thank us later.

  • Culpeper County

    Culpeper County

    Our pack hiked through stunning Civil War battlefields, visited a bison farm, and relaxed at a winery. We also awarded Culpeper County with a big “paws up” for its dog friendly downtown.

  • Craig County

    Craig County

    Does a dog friendly adventure involving forests, mountains, bald eagles, a waterfall, hiking, fishing, folk art, and bison sound too good to be true? We found all of these things and more in Craig County, our corner of paradise.

  • Clarke County

    Clarke County

    We hunted for a waterfall on the Appalachian Trail, toured a historic town, and explored the State Arboretum. Plus, we found an absolute gem of a dog friendly deli.

  • Chesterfield County

    Chesterfield County

    On a scale from 1 to 10 our pack rated Chesterfield County at a solid 11, including our trip to Henricus Historical Park where it’s always Year 1611.

  • Charlotte County

    Charlotte County

    As a Bridgerton fan, I was excited to visit Queen Charlotte’s eponymous Virginia county, especially because this royal was known to travel with her beloved dogs. Our pack enjoyed the history and the hiking, but we absolutely reveled in the rustic beauty of Charlotte County.

  • Charles City County

    Charles City County

    We doggedly adventured through about 400 years of Virginia history. Our one mishap we blame on the ghost of Aunt Pratt, who haunts the Historic Shirley Plantation.

  • Carroll County

    Carroll County

    We created the Carroll County caNine list of our 9 favorite dog friendly features including the New River Trail, Chestnut Creek Falls, and live outdoor music at the Blue Ridge Music Center.
