“Nettie was a wonderful sitter for my cat Tippy! Tippy had her own space completely separate from the dogs, a large cat tree and other furniture to climb and sleep on, and multiple windows to look out of — one of which had a bird feeder right outside for cat tv. Nettie is very caring and attentive - she played with Tippy a lot and sent me tons of pictures and videos. Would not hesitate to have her take care of Tippy again!”

“I cannot recommend Natalia enough! I was in a last-minute bind before my graduation and had to leave town for four days with no plans in place for my sweet (but very energetic and feisty!) Pomeranian, Brownie. As soon as Natalia reached out and I met her, I immediately felt at ease. She was confident, knowledgeable, and had a thoughtful plan for introducing Brownie to her other dogs and helping everyone adjust comfortably. Throughout Brownie's stay, Natalia sent so many photos and updates that I quickly stopped worrying and was able to focus on my graduation and trip. The pictures made me laugh, and it was obvious that Brownie was having a great time and receiving lots of love and attention. Her home is incredibly pet-friendly, welcoming, and clearly a place where dogs are treated like family. Natalia is kind, patient, and genuinely cares about the pets in her care. She even sent Brownie home with one of his favorite items because he loved it so much, which was such a thoughtful gesture. Finding someone you trust with your fur baby can be difficult, but Natalia exceeded every expectation. I'm so grateful she responded to my request, and I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Brownie came home happy, loved, and well cared for. She is truly a gem! 🐾❤️ Thank you, Natalia!”

“Jessica was an absolute gem when it came to caring for my dog over the weekend. From the very beginning, she made both me and my pup feel completely at ease. We had the chance to meet her beforehand, and her warmth and attentiveness immediately reassured me that my dog would be in great hands. What truly set Jessica apart were the frequent updates and numerous pictures she sent throughout the weekend. It felt like I was right there with my pup, which gave me so much peace of mind. In fact, after meeting her, I was so confident in her care that I canceled my original booking—even at the cost of a cancellation fee—and I have absolutely no regrets! Jessica is an exceptional dog mom, and I’ll continue booking with her whenever I need a sitter. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, look no further! Highly recommend!”

About: What Sets Me Apart I offer more than just a standard check-in or walk—I bring a lifetime of genuine animal love combined with specialized, hands-on experience to ensure your pets are safe, happy, and completely understood. Here is what makes my care unique: Senior & Special Needs Expertise: I have a deep understanding of senior pet care. Whether it’s managing medication schedules, recognizing subtle signs of discomfort, or just providing the extra patience and gentle pacing that older pets deserve, your senior companions are in incredibly safe hands. Puppy Training & Energy Management: Navigating the puppy phase requires consistent structure. I love working with young dogs to reinforce basic training, maintain potty routines, and channel all that amazing puppy energy into positive, healthy habits. Multi-Pet & Diverse Species Experience: My home is a sanctuary for all kinds of animals. From handling high-energy dogs and independent cats to caring for unique exotic pets like geckos, I understand the distinct body language and routine requirements of a truly diverse range of species. When your pets are with me, they aren't just being watched—they are being treated with the same deep respect, attentiveness, and family-level care that I give to my own. Pet care isn't just a side task for me—it’s seamlessly woven into the fabric of my daily and weekly structure. Because my routine centers around a flexible, home-based schedule, I am able to provide the consistent, attentive, and highly reliable care that pets thrive on. Here is how I integrate dedicated pet care into my routine: A Natural Part of My Day: Managing a busy, active household means I am already completely dialed into strict daily routines. Feeding schedules, fresh water refills, and multiple potty breaks are second nature to me and easily sync with your pet's specific internal clock. Built-in Movement and Fresh Air: I value keeping active and getting outside. Daily walks and high-energy playtime aren't chores—they are highlights of my schedule that allow me to give your dog the exercise, mental stimulation, and neighborhood exploration they need. Meticulous Environmental Care: Just as I maintain high standards for my own surroundings, keeping a spotless pet environment is part of my regular weekly rhythm. Daily litter box scooping, deep-cleaning food bowls, and organizing pet areas are deeply embedded in my normal cleaning habits. Evenings and Weekends for Quality Time: When the daytime rush winds down, my evenings and weekends are dedicated to winding down, too. This is when I love providing the quiet companionship, gentle grooming, and couch cuddles that keep pets feeling safe, loved, and part of the family while you're away. Because my life is set up to balance multiple priorities smoothly, your pet receives structured, dependable care without me ever having to rush their routine. Care in My Home (Boarding & Daycare) When pets stay with me, they aren't kept in isolation—they become part of a structured, lively, and highly attentive household. Seamless Integration: I run my daily business from home, which means your pet enjoys constant human presence and supervision. They are integrated right into our daily rhythm of work, play, and relaxation. A Sanctuary for All Personalities: My home is designed to accommodate different comfort levels. If your dog loves a pack environment, they will have plenty of company. If they prefer a quiet corner to decompress, I have dedicated, cozy spaces where they can rest undisturbed. A Safe, Social Environment: With experienced resident pets of my own, I am highly skilled at managing animal dynamics. Introductions are always handled slowly and safely, ensuring everyone feels secure and respected in the space. Care in Your Home (House Sitting & Drop-Ins) If your pet prefers the comfort of their own walls, my priority is maintaining absolute consistency, security, and cleanliness while you are away. Flawless Routine Replication: I follow your specific instructions to the letter. Whether it’s feeding at an exact timestamp, following a precise walking route, or administering medication, I ensure your pet's internal clock and habits aren't disrupted. Respecting Your Space: I treat your home with the utmost respect. In addition to keeping your pets happy, I ensure their environment stays pristine—handling meticulous litter box maintenance, keeping feeding areas spotless, and making sure everything looks exactly how you left it. Security and Peace of Mind: You will receive regular updates, photos, and quick communication so you never have to wonder how things are going. I also keep a vigilant eye on the security of your home, ensuring doors are locked, mail is brought in if requested, and the property is secure.

I would give 10 stars if I could! Qingbo was absolutely wonderful and treated our pup so well in our absence.

Marlin and her pup Prince took such great care of my baby when i had to go away for almost 3 weeks!!! I was miserable without her but I knew that Stormy was having a great time from the many pictures and videos that Marlin sent. Stormy is a high anxiety dog but Marlin went above and beyond to stick to Stormy's routine so she could feel safe and comfortable. Her dog Prince is so sweet and charming! He shared his balls and his beds with Stormy without complaint, even though he didn't always want to lol. Stormy enjoyed having another dog with her and Prince made her feel comfortable. I can never thank Marlin enough for making a difficult time in my life less stressful because I knew she was taking care of my baby like she was her own. I highly recommend Marlin and Prince!!! She is the best sitter for your baby, trust me

I am the owner of a bichon frise – Shih Tzu mix puppy who is quite anxious and quite attached to my husband and me. We previously had only left him with family members when we traveled. That situation however was no longer feasible. So I became the anxious one looking for a dog sitter who would make my beloved pooch, feel comfortable. Jacqueline was the answer to my prayers. She only boards one dog at a time. She has a job that allows her to work from home. And she is calm, kind, and patient. Jacqueline and I communicated easily and she sent me photographs of my pooch every day that I was traveling. I really didn't worry about him a bit after the first morning – – I knew he was comfortable and safe. What more can you ask? I'm very happy to have found Jacqueline.

Tanisha is hands down the best dog sitter I’ve ever had! I’ve used her three times now, and every experience has been great. She is incredibly reliable, caring, flexible, and always willing to accommodate my last-minute requests, which I truly appreciate. Whenever I’m away, she stays in touch throughout my entire trip and sends daily pictures and videos of Kash. Those updates give me so much peace of mind because I can actually see that he’s happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. Most importantly, Kash absolutely LOVES being with Tanisha and her family! He’s always excited and in a great mood when I drop him off, and he comes home just as happy. That tells me everything I need to know about how well he’s treated while he’s there. After three stays, I can confidently say that I completely trust Tanisha with Kash. She treats him like part of her family, and I never have to worry when he’s in her care. I couldn’t recommend her more highly. **Best dog sitter ever!**

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Carriage Hill

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Carriage Hill is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $69 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 7,899 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Carriage Hill. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

94% of sitters in Carriage Hill can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Carriage Hill 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 Carriage Hill.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Carriage Hill. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Carriage Hill 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
