“Had to go out of town for the weekend and left my little dog with Felice and Tyler. They have a nice fenced yard and dog friendly house which is great. You can tell they love dogs and are very knowledgeable about them. My dog, Sophie, is not used to being around other dogs so I was worried she would not fit in, but it was unfounded. We had a meet and great a couple weeks beforehand so she met their dog and sniffed around the backyard. I got periodic updates and photos, which was reassuring. I will definitely take her there in the future.”
“Such great pictures and comments the whole time our dog was being watched by Brittanie and Ryan. My dog seemed so relaxed and absolutely loved the yard that he could run around in, along with having some other dogs to play with. Highly recommend and we will definitely be using them again!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Nikki. She took amazing care of my dog while I was out of town. She was attentive, kept me updated and included photos, which gave me peace of mind. When I came back, my dog was happy, healthy and clearly well-loved. I highly recommend Nikki to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter.”
“Just picked up my pups from staying with Alex for the weekend. They had a great weekend playing with Reese. Alex sent us pics of them and they were so relaxed and happy. They look forward to staying again!!!”
“Virginia was amazing. Our dog loved being at her house with her two dogs and was thoroughly worn out after playing at her house all day. Will definitely be using Virginia again.”
“Robin makes the dogs under her care part of the family. This was my first overnight visit for my pet. She was well cared for and provided with supervised socialization opportunities. Robin does a nice job of keeping me informed with video and photos.”
“Our 8 month old Husky, Penny, just spent 12 days at Ginny's while our family took a trip to Thailand. Ginny made us feel at ease that Penny was well taken care of through her regular communication. On a daily basis we received an account of Penny's fun filled day, along with pictures of her. We will definitely request to board Penny at Ginny's if we need a sitter. It is comforting knowing your animal family member is having a good time too, on their own vacation. One can tell that Ginny and her husband genuinely love animals. We were very pleased.”
“Lingli did an amazing job. She provided pictures every day and I could tell my cat really got comfortable with her by the end of the stay. Will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Kelly was a joy to work with and she made us feel very comfortable to leave our sweet dog with her. She was lovely and sent constant photo updates. I will definitely leave Mila with her in the future!”
“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.”
“Leo loves going to Esther and Yi's. He loves their entire family! It's so reassuring knowing he is in good hands when I have to travel (usually for work)! Great people, great dogs. Highly recommend.”
“Priscilla was amazing with our little one! She made sure she felt right at home and spoiled. She kept us informed with pictures and stories throughout the stay. We will definitely use her again!”
“Excellent service! The sitter would send me videos every morning showing that he was walking my dog. My dog is also had some issues with his ears so he helped administer medication to him & brushed his teeth daily. very kind, personable & energetic sitter. Don’t hesitate to book him!”
“Taylor took great care of Coco while we went on vacation. She sent pics throughout Coco’s stay and Coco seemed to be right at home. Thank you Taylor for caring for our pup! We will definitely use Taylor again.”
“Elisha was great! Lottie got lots of new smells on her walks during her stay. She was excited to see me when I picked her up, but she was whimpering a little as we drove away. I think she must have had a good time and was sad to leave her new friends. One of Lottie's collars got left behind during pick-up and Elisha dropped it off at my house the next day (a previous sitter didn't offer to do that and I had to make a return trip). I would definitely contact Elisha again.”
“Kyury took great care of my dog. She took her on multiple walks every day and went above and beyond caring for my dog. Her communication was great and sent me pictures and updates daily while I was gone. My dog came back home very happy and tired from a fun week. I will definitely be using Kyury again!”
“Morgan did such an amazing job with my Orlee. She watched him for 12 days and it seems like Orlee had the best time. She was extremely responsive and made the process so easy for me. I felt great knowing Orlee was in such good hands while I was away. I would love to let Morgan watch Orlee again in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Catonsville
Ms. Jae is absolutely wonderful. She took my baby girl in as her own this past weekend and even had another energetic pup visiting that Cora could enjoy spending time with. Ms. Jae knew that I was worried given a few of my past experiences here in Baltimore and she made it her duty to send me multiple updates and photos throughout my time away from Cora. My was smiling the whole time, and I could really tell that she was happy and well cared for. You can tell that she really cares about making your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved in her space. If I could give 10 stars I would. I will likely only send her to Ms. Jae from now on as long as she will have her ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely amazing service and care. Gambino always wants to stay longer. He gets so excited when I tell him we are going to “daycare.” He will wait by the door until I finish getting ready for work because he’s so excited to be going to see Miss Virginia and Mr. Steve and his “fwens” lol 😀
I can’t say enough nice things about Sean and the wonderful way he took care of our fur baby, Taz. He kept me up to date with Taz’s daily activities and added pictures. I am so grateful for Sean and his excellent care of Taz. I will definitely use Sean again in the future!
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!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Catonsville on Rover is $44.4 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 5,279 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.
