“Ken and family did a great job with OllieVader (Ollie for short). Our family went on a short wked trip. Unfortunately NO Dogs Allowed. They cared for him like he was their own. Send pictures of him making himself at home. Drop off and pick-up we're a breeze. Definitely will book again with them.”
“This was our first experience using Rover and it was great! Brittanie and Ryan were flexible and easy to communicate with, shared photos throughout our pet’s stay, and overall made it easy to be away without worrying about her. Would definitely return the next time we need pet care!”
“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.”
“Virginia and Steven took such great care of my dog. He had a great a few days with them. They kept me updated with daily photos and were very easy to communicate with. Overall, great, hassle-free experience.”
“Wow!! Cannot say enough good things about Robin and her family. Louie had a wonderful time and was pooped when he got home! He met so many new friends. Robins home was clean and she runs a very organized well managed doggy daycare. I cannot recommend her enough.”
“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.”
“Kelly and her husband are simply amazing. From booking to post-pick-up, their communication was clear and timely. During Leo's stay with them, Kelly sent me photos, videos, and update comments numerous times throughout the day. It made a huge difference for me and my daughter (9 yo) who missed Leo very much during our trip. They were so warm and kind to Leo, and I could tell that they truly cared for the pet they were looking after. They took Leo to exciting walks, let him play off leach in their backyard, and cuddled with him. I know they've done all of this because they send me so many pictures. Leo looked very comfortable and content in the photos and videos. I highly recommend Kelly and her husband!!!”
“Priscilla was a very attentive and nurturing sitter. As a new dog mom, I was nervous to have my very anxious pup stay with a sitter, however, Priscilla is very clear and precise with how she cares for each pup, provides numerous check-ins with photos and gives the pups so much love and attention. I would highly recommend her and will be booking in the future!”
“Archie had such an amazing visit with Elisha again. She provided daily pictures and updates. She keeps him active and he loves his visits her with her. Would highly recommend her for a dog sitter”
“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.”
“Esther and Yi did a fantastic job of boarding Leo for me while I was out of country. I could tell from the photos and videos they shared that he was having a blast. I highly recommend them if you need someone to care for your dog while you are away.”
“Charles was amazing. Prince had a little issue shortly before his stay, and Charles was wonderful about making sure he received his medication. He kept me updated and even took pictures of Prince and sent them to me, which I really appreciated. Prince looked like he was having a great time and was very comfortable in Charles’s care. I was able to relax and not worry because I knew Prince was in good hands. I truly appreciate the care, attention, and communication Charles provided. I would definitely recommend Charles and will gladly use him again!”
“This was my first time ever using a sitter for my baby girl, and Morgan could not have provided a better service. She stayed in contact with me during the days leading up to the stay, and continued updating me with pictures and news during the stay. My fur baby came back to me happy and exhausted from all the play time with other dogs. I will definitely be returning to Morgan for future boarding for my baby girl”
“Aster helped us in a very last minute pinch when our dog sitting plans fell through for an out of town vacation! Our puppy is under a year old and has a leg injury so required some special attention and care. This made us extra nervous to leave her but we received so many wonderful updates throughout our trip. Our pup loved her time away because of how awesome Aster and her family took care of her. We’ll absolutely be booking with them again!”
“This is the second time we have left our pup with Katie & her husband. They were extremely accommodating and trustworthy, agreeing to get our dog from our house while we were away. I looked forward to my detailed daily updates from Katie, complete with pictures. We will definitely trust them with our dog again & again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Catonsville
We had a wonderful experience with Taylor and Austin! They took excellent care of our Goldendoodle, Lily, and kept us updated with regular messages and videos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. They were also incredibly flexible and understanding when our pickup time kept changing on our end. They were accommodating throughout and made the whole process stress-free. Lily was happy and well cared for, and we truly appreciate the love, attention, and flexibility they showed her. We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and reliable dog sitter!
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 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
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.
