“Sophia - thank you for taking great care of our dog Emmy while we were on vacation! Emmy always comes back healthy and happy. Sophia is great with dogs and I highly recommend her for boarding!”
“Kallie didn't want to come home! She was pampered beyond a doggie spa vacation. Tracey, Kevin, and family took amazing care of our sweet puppy. I highly recommend them for attentive and loving care of your dog. They were so amazing that we already requested two more future bookings.”
“Sriju is an Angel! She was able to help us with last minute care for our Rosie bookending our trip (with my parents babysitting in between) and Rosie was simply obsessed with her. She got all the cuddles and plenty of exercise and I was thrilled knowing she was in such capable hands!”
“Ivan did a great job taking care of our dogs Hank and Duke. They both have a lot of energy and Ivan made sure they got the exercise they needed on a daily basis. Ivan was kind enough to send pictures of the dogs to us on a daily basis while we were away. They always looked happy and entertained. We can't thank Ivan enough for the care and attention he showed our dogs. We would definitely use him again.”
“Dawn was a terrific choice for our dogs. Both our dogs felt at home and were treated with the best care! Dawn kept us informed throughout the entire weekend with updates and pictures. We definitely will book again!”
“Poh Huey is absolutely amazing. She took great care of our dog Belle recently when we were out of town. She was responsive, courteous, and very professional. Huey was genuinely attentive to Belle, which was greatly appreciated. She provides video/photo updates. Her fenced backyard with artificial turf provides a safety and clean playground for dogs. Her two dogs are super friendly. Huey is the best!!”
“This is our first time using Evvery’s services and we are very happy we found her. She made this experience easy and wonderful. I loved how she took the time each day to share pictures and videos of my dog. Our dog misses her and we will certainly use her services again!! Thank you so much Evvery for taking excellent care of our Maximus!”
“I recently found Wendy to watch my pup who exceeded my expectations! She is professional, has great space for dogs and genuinely cared for my dog. I loved receiving regular updates and pictures, which showed my baby was happy and well-cared for. Communication was fantastic; she promptly answered all my questions and kept me informed throughout the stay. I highly recommend Wendy anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care!”
“My dog was well taken care of. I received multiple photos, videos and messages. House was well laid out for dog care including a fenced shaded yard. I would use Xiao again.”
“James, Nicolette, and their children took excellent care of our nine month old Portuguese Water Dog puppy. Lizzy was treated as part of their loving family and had plenty of exercise and attention. My wife and I received constant updates and photos. I highly recommend them and would use them again without hesitation in the future.”
“Cooper enjoyed his time with Huan, her family, their dog and the daycare dog. She fussed over him and let me know of any concerns immediately. We also got daily pictures and videos. He came home exhausted.”
“Jill and Sean were absolutely wonderful with our dog, Gideon. They graciously agreed to a day trial run, which meant so much to us as we navigate some changes in his life. Since the passing of our older dog, Dino, Gideon has struggled with being separated from us and can become quite anxious at drop-off. Jill and Sean were incredibly patient, flexible, and comforting when Gideon became upset. They took the time to help him settle in and made him feel safe and cared for. Throughout his 7-hour stay, they sent thoughtful updates and photos that reassured us he was adjusting well and receiving lots of attention. It was clear that they genuinely cared about Gideon’s well-being and understood that every dog has unique needs. Their kindness and compassion gave us tremendous peace of mind. We are so grateful for the excellent care they provided and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and loving pet sitters. Thank you, Jill and Sean, for taking such great care of our boy! 🐾❤️”
“Chash, we can’t thank you enough for the attention and care you gave our pup this week! Tons of walks, play time and cuddles.. we couldn’t ask for anything more! We would HIGHLY recommend Chash to anyone that wants their fur baby to be well loved. We so appreciated all the daily updates and photos. And even sending our pup home with some sweet new treats, so thoughtful! Our dog Birdie can’t wait to stay with Chash again 💕”
“Sammy’s first boarding with Kris and Gail went very well. They lovingly cared for her like she was part of their own family. They were dedicated in providing fun nature walks which my pup loved even when the weather was less than ideal. I know she can’t wait to see them again!”
“Carolina was absolutely fantastic with my pup! I received numerous updates throughout and could see he was having such a fantastic time. Will definitely use again in the future!!”
“I just wanted to say a big thank you for taking such great care of my sweet Kenzie this weekend 🐾💕. You were amazing—always keeping me updated, sending the cutest pictures, and being so gentle and patient with her, especially with her being blind. It really meant a lot to me to know she was safe, loved, and in such good hands. I also appreciate you letting me know about the little accident in her kennel 💦—you were so honest and attentive, and that shows just how much you care. You’re truly such a kind and loving person, and it shows in the way you treated Kenzie. I will definitely be using you again in the future! 🥰🐶 Thank you again!”
“Raghavi and her family were AMAZING!!! It was my first time booking a pet sitter, so I didn't really know what to expect, but I got so lucky! Raghavi let me do a little meet-and-greet before I even booked to make sure that Ryder was comfortable with her dog, which put me so at ease, and during the boarding itself, was so accommodating with Ryder's schedule (and went above and beyond by sending me lots of photos while I was away, which was such an unexpected but very nice and much appreciated surprise!) She was so easy to get in touch with, and when I needed an emergency extra couple of days covered, she was so flexible and easygoing about it. Definitely booking again!!! :)”
“Jared was great with my dog...you can tell he really loves caring for pets. Always prompt with responses and keeps you updated on how your dog is doing. I highly recommend and look forward to using him again.”
“Pam and her daughter were so great with Pancho. They sent me many pictures and updates, it was obvious he was getting lots of love, attention and fun active time. Highly recommend and hopefully Pancho will get to pay another visit to their place!”
“My dogs get so zen with wenyan and her family. It is pretty amazing! Thank you so much for your loving care and beautiful photos :). A special kudos to you for giving them both pampering baths and nail trims. What a treat (for me)! My go-to for staycations.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Darnestown
My dog had a great experience and enjoyed spending time with the other lovely dogs. We received daily notifications like clockwork every evening which was highly appreciated. My daughter and I were able to travel for 10 days with assurance that our doggy was in the best of hands. Will definitely use Sophia every time moving forward for our doggy day care needs :)
James, Nicolette, and their children took excellent care of our nine month old Portuguese Water Dog puppy. Lizzy was treated as part of their loving family and had plenty of exercise and attention. My wife and I received constant updates and photos. I highly recommend them and would use them again without hesitation in the future.
Sabina takes excellent care of our dog! She follows our instruction exactly and updates us daily with pictures. She also gives lots of attention and does lots of activities with Saska. He’s definitely very happy at her place! We would not hesitate to choose her again in the future!
Sure! Here’s a polished review you can use: --- We couldn’t be happier with Katrina as our dogsitter! She is incredibly communicative and keeps us updated every step of the way. It’s clear she has a lot of experience. Our dogs warmed up to her right away and are always relaxed and happy when we return. Being able to go on vacation with peace of mind, knowing our dogs are getting the absolute best care and attention, is priceless. Highly recommended!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Darnestown on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 7,684 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Darnestown. 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 Darnestown 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 Darnestown 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 Darnestown 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 Darnestown.
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 Darnestown 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.
