“Linda was such a great dog sitter. She sent great photos and videos during Prince’s stay and I knew he was well taken care of. Linda was very patient and loving with Prince. I’d use her any time!”
“Aparna was so great with Piper! She was responsive, communicative with me about how Piper was doing, and Piper was right at home. I will definitely be reaching out for future sitting needs!”
“Steph took great care of Jill and kept us in the loop on the great time she was having with her two dogs. Jill was very happy and very tuckered out from a great couple days of playing when we picked her up.”
“Amazing! So accommodating and kind as I kept changing the drop off and pick up times due to driving from New York. Got great pictures and my pup was so happy when I picked her up! 10/10 would recommend again!”
“Tory was amazing! We highly recommend her to everyone. I received photos daily and was able to enjoy my stay away knowing he was happy and having a great time. She made us feel very comfortable and communicated with us daily. We were so happy with her care and love for our little boy that we plan to have her watch him again. Thank you again Tory! You are amazing! See you soon.”
“Megan was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING with our two dogs, Nelson and Kodie! Both can be energetic at times and both like lots of cuddles which they both received the entire stay. She followed the schedule perfectly and put our minds at ease! Communication was GREAT! Megan kept us informed of their daily activities from the time they woke up until they went to bed (including mealtimes, play time and cuddle time). She sent GREAT photos (AND I MEAN GREAT) the photos were picture perfect for magazines!! :) Megan was reliable and adjusted to our schedule with drop off and pick up. When the dogs ran out of the canned food, she offered and picked some up for us! How nice! :) At pick up both dogs were happy and well taken care of! BUT what touched my son and I the most is we were going through our pets bag and found Megan had placed a gift bag for Nelson and Kodie that consisted of a card, plush dog toy, and dog treats! WHAT A SURPRISE- We are STILL SMILING!!! :) THANK YOU MEGAN VERY NICE MEETING YOU AND WE ROVER PET PARENTS WILL BE RETURNING!!! :)”
“Kera is a star sitter! She’s a clear communicator, sent just the right amount of updates, and is very capable. I especially appreciated her ability to handle my reactive cattle dog and trust her judgement with handling any special needs. I highly recommend her and will most certainly bring Aries back on my next work trip.”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my entire life. I currently have a non-dog friendly bully breed so I have plenty of experience walking reactive dogs or dogs that have special requirements. I love all animals and promise to treat your pet with the greatest of care. I currently work on a 2 week rotating schedule. I have lots of days off throughout the week, operating on a two week cadence. I am off Monday/Tuesday/Friday/Saturday/Sunday one week and off Wednesday/Thursday the following week. I will care for and love every pet like my own. I have nursed my dog back from a spinal surgery and she currently has cushings so I am very comfortable administering medicine. I would love to deliver the highest level of care to your loved one.
“She had done greet with our dog lili she is about a year and six months old no issues at all very knowledgeable of dogs in their situations as well as understanding their behavior with no issues she took care of my dog and my dog played with her dog so now my dog has a friend they went to the park together and everything and she bought my dog back, clean safe and sound no issues Thank you very much once again for watching her for the five days. It’s been great. We definitely use her again just for dog play dates. Also she’s amazing. Don’t hesitate.”
“Robin is very organized and prepared! I know our dog was well taken care of. Great communication throughout. We know we can trust Robin again in the future for boarding for our fur baby 🙂”
“Shruti is very caring and considerate of my dog who has separation anxiety. She worked with me to find the best solution for her. I've already booked her this time for an extended stay while I am travelling.”
“Nikki seemed very knowledgeable sweetheart how to take care of our dog's anxiousness and energy from the get go. It helped a lot that she had a fully fenced yard and no pets of her own when we booked her. From meet and greet to pick up, she made it easy for everyone. We specially appreciated her updates and our dog truly enjoyed staying at her place. We also appreciated the tips and other feedback she gave us, as we are first time pet owners and our dog has some unique needs. Definitely will use her services again.”
About: I have loved animals since I got my first Rottweiler at the age of three. I always feel very connected being around animals. I’m nurturing, responsible, reliable, patient, and loving. I’ve been trusted among my friends and family to care for their animals. I have loved each and every one and I intend to love your animal as if they were my own. I currently have availability after 5pm on weekdays and open availability on weekends! If other arrangements are needed outside of my time frame I still recommend reaching out as I am very accommodating :) I have lots of energy to keep your fur baby entertained and lots of rubs and hugs to offer. I’ve had dogs and cats, big and small all my life, so I understand the importance of a safe environment in any circumstance.

“Thank you so much! Geovanna was wonderful! Very communicative and friendly throughout the whole stay, and they made Sunny feel comfortable and cared for. I felt at ease knowing my pup was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Baltimore
we were so sad going on our family vacation without Kynzo especially knowing shes so spoiled but Sarah eased our worries with updates and Kynzo looked like she had a ball. This was also Kynzos first time away from home (we usually do inhome boarding) and worried she wouldnt adjust well but it was good to see she did!We’d definitely book again!
Working with animals must come naturally for Ece. Her patience was absolutely wonderful with my elderly dog, I got daily updates with many pictures and she showed genuine care and concern for Luna (asked if I noticed particular bumps/marks, for instance). Thank you so much!!
We are so so so glad to have left our pup with Esterline!! Esterline was incredibly responsive and in touch before and during our pup's stay with her. She was very open to doing a meet & greet and hearing about all of our pup's quirks. After we dropped our dog off, she immediately started sharing pictures and updates, so we never had to wonder how things were going. And when we received updates, we could tell how caring Esterline was as our dog adjusted to being in a new place with new people. We will be leaving our dog with Esterline during our wedding, and I am so grateful to know that we won't have to worry one bit. Thank you, Esterline!
⭐️ Excellent Dog Sitter! This was my first time using a dog sitter, and Demetrius was absolutely amazing! He kept me updated every morning and throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. He kept my girl busy, active, and doing things she normally wouldn’t get to do with me. I truly appreciate the love, patience, and care he gave her. My girl can definitely be a barker, but Demetrius was so patient and understanding with her. It was clear that he genuinely cared about making sure she was happy and comfortable. I would 100% use Demetrius again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their fur baby! 🐶❤️
Kristen was the best!!! She was able to watch our very energetic, dog-reactive, pit bull last minute when someone else cancelled on us. She took him for long walks and sent lots of photos and video reassuring me he was okay. Will definitely be rebooking with Kristen in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Baltimore on Rover is $47.62 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,935 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Baltimore. 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.
93% of Baltimore 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 Baltimore 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 Baltimore 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 Baltimore.
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 Baltimore 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.
