“Our dog Maizey had a great time with Felice, Ken et. al. Especially appreciate their flexibility in keeping Maizey an extra day due to the unexpected lengthening of my husband's hospital stay. Very friendly and caring folks!”
“Alex was very responsive and the dogs seemed to love staying at his house, running in the yard, and playing with Alex's dog Reese. He also sent a lot of pics which was really appreciated! Alex--thanks again for taking care of the twins!”
“Brittanie and Ryan were absolutely amazing! It’s hard to find people you can trust with your fur baby, but these two are serious dog people. They took Millie in as one of their own and provided her with love and me with multiple updates to put my mind at ease. I will definitely be using them in the future!”
“Virginia and her family are lovely. She took such great care of my Macks. It feels so good to get away and know that my girl is also getting a vacation. She had so much fun with Virginia's dogs and her family. I will be excited to book my next trip knowing I can leave my girl in such good hands.”
“As always, Kelly and her family were amazing. They took care of our Leo as their own and updated us several times a day with photos and notes. We were so thankful that Leo was in good hands during our out of country trip.”
“As always Robin was very attentive to our pups! They are always very excited to visit her home and they always seem so happy in the pictures and videos that she sends us! Thank you, Robin for taking such great care of our pups! We appreciate it and would definitely recommend her services to anyone.”

“Lingli was an amazing sitter and cared for my sweet boy with so much care and compassion. While away for a week, I was sent tons of photos and videos during Dill’s stay. I highly recommend Lingli and will definitely continue using services in the future. I know that while I am away, my sweet boy will be in great hands, in a safe environment.”
“Odessa was great! This was my very first time using Rover and the first time ever going on a week-long vacation and leaving my dog with someone, so I was super nervous. Odessa was very reassuring. She sent updates and photos of Rozay, which eased my mind and made me feel so much better as the days went by. I would definitely recommend her and will be booking her on my next trip.”
“Theresa was fantastic and we really appreciated her accommodating a last minute booking for Saber. She kept us well informed with daily updates and pictures and was very thorough in understanding the needs of our German Shepherd. I would definitely recommend booking with her and would love for her to watch Saber again!”
“Let me say this review is long over due. However I will say this Morgan and her family are hands down highly Recommended with the care of your pet. She is takes really good care of my dog when I am away and sends photos and when myboet arrived to her home he fits right in and that say a lot that her has respect and bonds with her and her family. So if you are looking in the area for a great sitter please book with her. You will not be disappointed. Thank Morgan you are the best”

About: I have taken care of my own dogs and cats my entire life and cannot remember a time I didn't love them all. My cat is no longer with me but I still have dogs and would love to care for your pets as I currently do my own. I can handle big dogs and little dogs as well as am willing to clean out your cats litterboxes. I'm happy to tussle with big dogs and take naps with lap dogs anytime! I'm a college student looking for work over the breaks and any pet time over the semester as I'll be away from my own. I'm happy to work around my class schedule to be with your pets as much as possible. I have a mostly fenced yard with the only opening being the driveway but intend to do walks and keep pets leashed just for safety. My own home has two dogs that are great with other dogs, both of them being on the smaller side and great with people as well. When I'm up at school there will be no other pets up there and the space will be fully for your pets. I'm also able to do house sitting, walks, and drop-ins for your pets to make sure your pets are getting love and attention when you're away.
“Priscilla was so great with Kai. She went out of her way to take our large puppy into her home. Everyday she sent us updates and pictures. We are so grateful to have found her. I highly recommend her!”
“Alonni, you truly exceeded our expectations this was our first time using rover. As any dog parent we were nervous and skeptical. However, you immediately eased our all nerves and provided us with a sense of knowing Remi our senior shepherd was truly in good hands. Alonni, you can tell you have a passion for animals and truly go above and beyond to ensure they have a home away from home. Before dropping Remi of Alonni, I was truly impressed by your quick response and attention to detail. Your attention to detail and professional continue through the whole duration of Remi’s stay! Thank you for providing beautiful photos of Remis stay. You are a truly a gem! We definitely will be booking in the future. ❤️❤️❤️”
“Susan provided wonderful care of our dog, Zim, while we were on vacation. He spent more than a week with her and we were given daily updates/pictures, which were very much appreciated. Zim was walked twice/day and Susan played fetch with him. She is a very responsible sitter; we would definitely book with her again and we highly recommend her to other pet owners!”

Jamella has watched Favor several times. Favor is always well taken care of and gets along well with her dog. Sometimes I think Favor prefers Jamella and her family because he's sad when he gets home, lol. I know that Favor is in good hands when he's with her and I feel comfortable leaving him with her.
Nikki truly cares about the dogs she watches. She is attentive, keeps us notified of how our dog is doing, and works very well with senior dogs or ones who need a little extra care. We recently moved further away, but I’ll be willing to drive a bit more for Nikki to watch our dog.
Jessica was absolutely amazing with our dog! It was our first time boarding, and she made us feel completely at ease. She took such great care of our dog and sent us daily updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell our dog was happy and well cared for. We will definitely trust Jessica again and will absolutely use her pet-sitting services in the future. Highly, highly recommend!
Nina was such a blessing to find as I was looking for last minute care for my pup! She welcomed Sweet Pea into her home and within the evening she was settled and I could tell she felt at home. She shared pictures throughout the stay and was super communicative which I appreciated greatly! She came home tired and so happy - couldn’t ask for more!
They always enjoy watching our dog Kygo while we’re away on vacation. Update us with messages and pictures and make us feel at ease knowing he’s with people who care about him and treat him like he’s their own. Will definitely continue to use them in the future when needed! Thanks again!
Leah & Jada made Butters feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely loved from the start. They were generous with updates and incredibly transparent throughout his stay, which made everything feel easy and stress-free. Butters settled in immediately and truly seemed at home. It was clear he was in great hands, and their thoughtful, attentive care meant so much. Highly recommend!
Odessa took very good care of our dog! She sent updates and photos throughout the time that she had him. Our little guy really bonded with her during his stay and we could tell right away that she cared for him really well. We are so grateful for the care and love that he received from her. We will not hesitate to book with Odessa again!
Sean was great a fit for boarding my two girls Xena & Rogue! I went away for 10 days, they both got multiple daily trail walks, a quiet neighborhood, and a great living space on his ground floor. Sean would give a daily update most days with 1-2 photos so I could see they both looked well. I returned to two happy, healthy pups that seemed content being in Sean's home. Thank you Sean!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Catonsville 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 5,225 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Catonsville. 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 Catonsville 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 Catonsville 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 Catonsville 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 Catonsville.
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 Catonsville 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.
