“This was my first experience with Rover and my first time using Jackalyn. From the start, she was helpful with answering my questions since I am new to the platform. The communication throughout this process was clear, and she was responsive. I never needed to reach out to her as she kept me up to date throughout the stay. I appreciate the love she's shown my dog and feel confident that she will be our staple sitter from now on.”
“Diego did an amazing job taking care of my puppy, Zulu, for a full week! He made sure Zulu ate on schedule, stayed active, and got plenty of playtime with the other dogs in his care. It was clear that Zulu felt comfortable, happy, and well looked after the entire time. Diego has become my go-to sitter for both short and long-term stays, and Zulu absolutely loves him. Highly recommend!”
“Kelly and Maurice were great! This was my first time boarding Smokey and they made him feel like he was apart of the family from all the pictures. He got to interact with other dogs and that is something I've been wanting. I'll definitely be contacting them again to watch him.”
“Ms.Sabrina was amazing ! She was very attentive to Ace , and sent pictures and videos of Ace always enjoying his self ! I will definitely book with Ms.Sabrina again!”
“My dog came back happy and tired! I don’t think he wanted to come back with me so needless to say he had a good time. Lots of pictures were sent and communication was awesome!”
“Lillian took great care of our terrier mix, Martha, and made sure she got along with Lillian’s pups and another boarder. She sent several pics of Martha out and about while we were away. Lillian always responded quickly to our texts and left us feeling like Martha was being well cared for. We absolutely will consider using her services again next time we need to board Martha.”
“Joe was very accommodating and took excellent care of Benji. He kept me updated and made the entire experience worry free. I would highly recommend Joe to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“My frenchie had a very smooth and easy 6 day stay with Adiyah. She’s very kind and easy to communicate with. She sent photos throughout our time away and I always felt like he was in good hands. Will be booking again! And highly recommend.”
“Branden was a great sitter for Beac. He was patient and considerate of his wants to sniff excessively since he was in a new environment. He was very friendly and open with me as well. Branden ensured that Beac was exercised well and had a chance to enjoy the environment and scenery around him; which was absolutely beautiful. Branden, THANK YOU!!! We will be repeat customers.”
“We had a fantastic experience with Tommy. He is quick to respond, flexible with timing and he made our pups first stay with him a super positive experience! Tommy is clearly a very experienced dog owner and sitter. We already booked her summer vacation with Tommy 🙂”
“Stephanie was such a great host to my dog Bruno, she maintained communication/updates throughout the visit and was very attentive to my instructions for Bruno given he has a hard time adjusting to new places. Would definitely book with them again! -Lindsay”
“Joseph was very communicative and shared pictures of our pups with us daily. He followed all directions we gave him and made sure our pups feel at home under his care. I would recommend Joseph as a pet sitter and would entrust him with watching our pups again in the future. Thanks for taking care of our babies!”
“I can’t recommend Zulu enough! She took such wonderful care of my dog while I was away. She was so attentive and sent updates, making sure my furry baby felt happy and comfortable the entire time. I’ll definitely reach out to her again the next time I need a sitter.”
“Nicole and her family (as always) made sure the our two little ones were happy and well cared for while we were traveling on two back to back trips. Gives us peace of mind to know they are well loved and in a safe environment while we are away.”
“Mark and his family were absolutely amazing! The communication was great from start to finish, which really gave me peace of mind. This was Coco’s first time being away from me overnight, and honestly, I wouldn’t have gone if Mark and his family weren’t available. Coco can be full of energy, but I love how they were so patient and accommodating with her. I also really appreciated all the pictures and the positive, loving vibes from the whole family, it truly made a difference. Thank you all so much, and we will definitely see you again!”
“I'm glad to have made the right choice as to someone watching my Givenchy. That choice was Crystal, a professional when it comes to dog sitting, knowing their personality, what they eat, and health. As a doggy parent, I was calm due to Crystal's updates and pics. I will definitely call on her again.”

Linda was perfect! Extremely timely, communicative and my senior doggy loved her. She sent photos and video updates Drop off and pick up very smooth My dog did not want to leave her when I picked her up. Perfection!! Thanks so much, will absolutely call Linda again.
Thank you again, Lilian, for taking such thoughtful care of Ruby and Ivy while I was away in Washington state. It gave me a great sense of peace knowing they were in a calm, attentive, and caring environment while I traveled. I appreciated the updates, communication, and overall kindness shown throughout their stay. It was clear they were well looked after and treated with patience and care. I would absolutely recommend your services to others looking for a trustworthy caretaker for their pets.
Dionne Is great 😊 My Pups & I love her service that she provided us. She was very caring, loving, and went above and beyond to make sure they felt comfortable. She walked them sent pics and videos and also fed them properly! I WILL MOST DEFINITELY BE REBOOKING WITH HER ❤️ MY ADVICE TO YOU ALL BOOK HER SHES AMAZING COMMUTATION IS AS WELL ‼️‼️‼️
Myesha is such an angel! This is the second time I’ve booked with her almost 6 months apart. When I went for drop off, my Prada instantly became a big puppy. You could tell she remembered her, enjoyed her, and was really happy to be back. That means a lot to me! Even on pick up, Prada was prancing around so happily as if she would see her again. That energy was so genuine and I truly appreciate Myesha. I’m not even sure Prada would let me book with someone else! ♥️.
Bethany was a lifesaver! We needed last-minute care, and she responded right away and met with us quickly to make it happen. Rezzi instantly got along with her sweet pup, Momo, and I received daily photo updates that kept me at ease. Bethany works from home, has a small backyard for playtime, and made sure Rezzi got her daily walks. Rezzi came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would definitely book with Bethany again!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in District Heights on Rover is $44.4 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 7,585 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across District Heights. 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 District Heights 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 District Heights 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 District Heights 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 District Heights.
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 District Heights 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.
