Roving through Virginia with Rover

  • Fauquier County

    Fauquier County

    Fauquier County, infamous as “horse and wine country” also offers up the most eclectic assortment of dog friendly activities imaginable. And we tried to do them all.

  • 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.

  • Botetourt County

    Botetourt County

    We found the top 10 dog friendly activities in Botetourt County, including a historical tour, a 200-foot waterfall, and paddling on the James River.

  • Bland County

    Bland County

    In Virginia’s own Shangri-La within the Blue Ridge we marveled at the picturesque landscapes, endless forests, and absence of traffic lights.

  • Bedford County

    Bedford County

    Maybe the Beale Ciphers are a hoax or maybe Bedford County conceals a vast fortune. Nonetheless, we are far richer for having discovered some of Bedford County’s treasures for ourselves over a long weekend.

  • Amherst County

    Amherst County

    Don’t make my mistake when you visit Amherst County. Bring your kayak! The good news: we saw 2 waterfalls, hiked portions of the Appalachian Trail and James River Heritage Trail, and visited the Monacan Indian Nation Museum. Added bonus: Mack and his brother Ron had a ball fishing the James River with guide Jeremy Cunningham.
