“Marcel came back to me well loved and cared for by Shanilka and her family! Marcel was very relaxed at returning home. Thank you for the pictures that you sent. Great thanks for your flexibility on our drop off and pick up time when our plane was late! I especially loved that Marcel slept with your mom and ignored the bed. He had a wonderful team to care for him. I will definitely use your services again. Thanks again❤️🙏🤗”

“Aashna and Sidhanth were great! They’re were very responsive and accommodating when I had to adjust the schedule. They sent pictures and updates twice a day. Will definitely be using them again!”

“Evan and his wife stepped in at the very last minute to take care of Kobi for the weekend - and not only did they agree, but they were so enthusiastic it felt like I was doing them a favor and not the other way around! Communication was great with check ins during the day and drop off/pick up went smoothly. So grateful to have found them!”


“Diana and her family are amazing! They were so loving towards my dog, sent updates/pictures, and were flexible with my travel plans. I would happily book with them again. 😍”

“Our experience with Erin was wonderful. She really knows how to care for your dog like her own and I could tell my dog Luna had a great time staying with her. She was very communicative and gave updates/pictures through Luna’s stay. Def would go with Erin again!”

“Byamba and family did a great job watching Banjo for us, communicating throughout his stay, and sending us pictures daily. We appreciate them helping us in a quick bind! They were very kind, walked Banjo twice a day, and spoiled him!”
“I have entrusted my dog, Bella, to Lina several times, and each time she has cared for her with the utmost love and attention. Lina is incredibly consistent and reliable, always making sure Bella is happy and comfortable. She also sends me photos, showing me just how well Bella is doing, which gives me complete peace of mind. I truly appreciate her dedication and warm heart, and I couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter!”

We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to other pet parents🩵”


“Dave took great care of Penny while we were away for 10 days. Dave made the whole process very easy and was great to work with. We got daily updates with photos, and peace of mind knowing Penny was in good hands and sticking to her routine. When we picked her up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-cared for. Dave followed the care instructions well. Reliable, communicative, and great with dogs. We’ll definitely be reaching out again for future trips and highly recommend Dave to anyone needing a trustworthy sitter!”

“Chris (and Maria) were great hosts for our Remy and welcomed her into their home. Chris kept us updated with photos and videos which was very helpful. We could see Remy was really comfortable with them. They looked after her food and meds needs and it looks like Chris gave her plenty of exercise as well which is a huge plus with the backyard. Remy returned to us just how we had left her with them. Would recommend Chris for tremendous empathy with animals and also excellent communication and updates.”

“Kerstyn took great care of our pup Jane! We received daily updates plus photos. Jane also loved playing with Freya! One thing we appreciated was Kerstyn’s patience with Jane, who is slightly anxious and needs a little time to get used to new situations.”

“Diana was warm and kind even before I made the booking—she explained everything clearly and her gentle tone made me feel instantly at ease. On the day I dropped Brownie off, she welcomed us into her home, showed me around, and gave Brownie the chance to meet her dog. It was lovely to see how they slowly got to know each other. The environment was clean, calm, and very comfortable, which gave me peace of mind to leave Brownie in her care. While I was away on my trip, Diana sent short updates and photos everyday— just enough to reassure me that Brownie was doing well and enjoying her time. I felt completely at ease thanks to her thoughtful messages. If you’re looking for someone to care for your small dog, I highly recommend Diana!”

“Jason and Becky are trustworthy, attentive, and easy to communicate with. Yak had a great time with them and their doggies. The pictures and videos with Yak’s smiley face Jason and Becky shared daily are the proof!”

“Donna provided very special care to Cocoa. She is a senior pup, and we are forever grateful that Donna provided updates as soon as anything of note happened. She was super responsive to all messages, and Cocoa was comfortable for the entire stay. We may not have Cocoa for much longer, and we are grateful that Donna was extra attentive to her needs and provided the best care possible. Many, many thanks.”

I had a great experience with Andy's overnight dog-sitting service. He was very communicative throughout the process and prompt with both pick-up and drop-off, which made everything incredibly easy. He also sent pictures during the stay, which I really appreciated, and my dog seemed like he had a good time.

Andrea and her family are amazing! We truly don’t know what we’d do without them and they’ll be our go-to for boarding for as long as they continue to offer their services. I’d recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, thoughtful family who will treat your dog like their own

Lee Ann communicated often with this nervous pup's mommy, making the separation anxiety minimal. Stella enjoyed her stay, the play, the back yard, and has been sleeping all day since we brought her home. Thanks, Lee Ann, Charlotte, Henry and Mr. Lee Ann for making our pup feel at home!

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received from Tim! From the very beginning, he was incredibly thoughtful, communicative, and genuinely caring. He kept me updated throughout the stay with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind and made it clear my dog was happy and well cared for. It was obvious that he truly loves animals and treats them like they’re his own. I also had to change the times and days of booking and he was super flexible and accommodating. He is absolutely outstanding, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone they can completely trust with their pet!

Rae and her family were amazing pet sitters for our dog, Duke, who loves to be around people. Rae was incredibly thoughtful to give him plenty of attention and exercise. He certainly walked more with Rae than at home. She sent daily pictures and updates. Prior to boarding, Rae was diligent to find out about Duke’s habits and wanted to do her best to replicate his daily routine from home. We highly recommend Rae and appreciate her loving care!

Our two dogs stayed with Byamba for 6 nights while we were on vacation and we couldn’t be more thankful for his family’s excellent care! The dogs looked like they had a blast going on walks, exploring the trail, and playing in the backyard. We received many updates and got to relax on our vacation with the peace of mind that our dogs were safe and enjoying their stay. Byamba was also attentive to our dog’s seasonal allergies and helped to administer medicine when needed. This is our second time using Byamba’s services and we look forward to many more staycations for Ozzy and Willo!

Jihae always takes such loving care of our pups. I can see the regular walks on the Fi app becausr she let's us plug in the bases at her place. She sends pics every day while we are away as well as little updates on their activities. We are so happy we found her, and our doggos seem to be happy too.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Cabin John on Rover is $77.7 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 7,761 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Cabin John. 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 Cabin John 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 Cabin John 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 Cabin John 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 Cabin John.
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 Cabin John 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.
