“After a meet and greet we decided to do an overnight trial and our dog loved it! The whole family is very warm and inviting and our dog felt at home the moment he walked in the door. Their house has a nice fenced in backyard as a plus. We have already booked our summer vacation and plan on booking other trips as well. Very happy to have found such a perfect fit.”
“Shuling always makes me feel so much better about leaving my needy dog, manny, when I go for vacation. He always comes back with a huge smile and has so much fun playing with her dog, Bear. Thank you so much, Shuling!!”
“Michelle kept our dog over the holidays and was so nice and easily worked around our schedule for drop off and pick up. She kept us posted during his stay and had other dog guest to keep our pup entertained! Will be using her again!”
“Kimberly and her family made Ruthie fe right at home and provided her with a home away from home! They were so kind and accommodating to her. Ruthie gets anxious knowing kennels and sometimes doesn’t like other dogs, so this is the perfect solution for her. She was treated like family! We will definitely be back!”
“As a first time user of Rover and first time search for a cat sitter, Elena definitely set the standard. From the first contact, Elena was incredibly responsive, very kind, and extremely welcoming of my babies. Elena and her children took such good care of my babies, as they allowed them space to adjust while being open to their affection as they warmed up. I had peace of mind that my babies were in good hands as she invited them into her home with open arms. When I picked Pocket and Rocket up, they were so soft from freshly brushed hair and calmer to get back into the car. I would absolutely recommend Elena to take care of your cats, as they will get plenty of cuddles, play time, and freedom to explore their new space. Thank you, Elena and kids!!”
“Dana took my pup Dillon for a few overnights when I went out of town recently, and he had the best time! She sent frequent photo updates of his adventures, and it was clear that she cared for him like he was her own. The fenced-in back yard was perfect for this city boy to stretch his legs! 🐾”
“We couldn’t be happier with Janice and Stalio! They didn’t balk at any of our special requests, of which there were several including giving meds, medicated baths, belly band changes and not leaving our Chihuahua alone, and without a lap for too long. The dogs didn’t greet us with their usual excitement when we returned, which we take to mean that they were spoiled beyond belief. We are supremely grateful to have found J & S!”
“Katie was very sweet with my nervous dog, and kept me updated with plenty of pictures while she stayed overnight. I appreciate Katie’s flexibility and responsiveness when a last minute trip came up that I needed to go out of town for. Definitely would recommend Katie to anyone!”
About: I’ve always had a house full of animals growing up, from dogs and cats to reptiles and even bunnies! 🐶🐱🐰🦎 Not having pets around after moving out was definitely something to get used to. I’m so excited to be on this app because caring for animals genuinely makes me happy, and I can’t wait to meet and spoil your furry family members like they’re my own! 💖 I currently work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend plenty of time caring for animals. I’m open to different schedules and stay lengths!! Animals have always been a big part of my life, so I care for every pet like they’re my own! 🐾 I make sure they receive lots of love, attention, playtime, and care while keeping up with their normal routines. Whether they’re staying with me or I’m visiting them at home, I want every pet to feel safe, happy, and loved.
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our pup in Carla's home! Our dog was so well cared for, and Carla sent daily updates with pictures and videos. Her dog was incredibly sweet and got along great with ours. She did a great job balancing exercise with being mindful of our older dog's past surgeries and individual needs. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!”
“Justine did an amazing job boarding my golden retriever, Gibson, for 4 nights. Communication was great, drop-off and pickup were easy, and Gibson came home happy and relaxed. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I had zero concerns while I was away, and I’d absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend.”
“Becca was wonderful. We just adopted our dog 2 months prior to our trip and this was our first time leaving her with anyone. We were really nervous, but Becca's natural love for dogs put us right at ease; she was so kind and patient with our dog. She sent us daily updates and pictures - my daughter loved it! Knowing that our dog was so well cared for, really allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation!”
“Amy was so great supporting our last minute request and when our return flight was severely delayed, she was able to keep Margie an extra night. She was so responsive and accommodating. Thank you for making frustrating travel less stressful!”
“Marliez took amazing care of Ozzie. He walked with her Husky Wolf several times a day receiving plenty of needed exercise. Oz was received as part of her family. I could tell from the photos he was really enjoying his stay and looking forward to go back. Marliez paid attention to the nuance of my dog's antics to adjust to him. She is a wonderful sitter”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Arnold
Dana is the best! My dog Shanie had a wonderful week with her. We got lots of great pictures throughout her stay. Dana has a perfect house with a large fenced in yard with shaded areas and is largely flat, so perfect for older dogs like Shanie. In addition to being a great dog sitter, the location of her home is SO convenient for those traveling to the MD and DE beaches... she's close to the bay bridge! Will definitely use Dana next time we travel!
Candice was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our pup while we went out of town. And she was so easy to work with. She provided updates each day and cared for our dog just as we requested. To put this into perspective, we never board our dog and usually only book vacations where he can be included, but we couldn’t take him on this trip, so I reached out to Candice. She was very accommodating and I felt at ease leaving our beloved Aussie with her. We will absolutely book with Candice in the future!
This was Tibs’ second time staying with Keerin and her family and he had a great if not better time than the first! Keerin has such a happy home and our boy got tons of love from her, her family, and their dog, Boomer. They sent plenty of happy picture updates. They treat Tibs like family and he loves staying with them! I would recommend them to anyone.
Finding a sitter like Timothy is such a gift. He provided top-notch care for our 10-year-old Corgi, Jazz. It was so reassuring to receive daily photos of Jazz on her walks, at the park, or just having a blast in his fantastic fenced-in yard. Thanks to Timothy's excellent communication and clear love for animals, we were able to relax and enjoy our time away, knowing she was happy and safe.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Arnold on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 5,312 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Arnold. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Arnold sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Arnold landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Arnold 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 Arnold.
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.
You and your Arnold 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 MD 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.
