“Murphy spent 2+ weeks with Jeff while we were out of the country. Jeff provided regular updates and took excellent care of him while we were away. Murphy had so much fun playing with the other dogs too - it was a great experience all around.”
“Melodie took such great care of my 13 yo Junot! She was super responsive, sent plenty of pictures and Junot clearly had a great time with her. I'd love to board him with Melodie in the future!”
“This review is long overdue! Beth has watched our very energetic pug mix a few times now and each time Harry comes back home exhausted! Anytime we see Beth and Bastian in the neighborhood Harry is so excited so we know he has a great time with them! Beth is also super responsive and accommodating!”
“Christian had great communication and was very prompt in responses and updates. My dog stayed with her for a few days and seemed like she had a good time. It was my first time boarding her at someone else’s house— would recommend Christian!”
“I appreciate the care Donna provided to Chloe! She seemed to be very happy when I picked her up. I also valued how she took her time introducing her dogs to Chloe to see how their temperaments would be with one another. It also made me comfortable that there was a small group of dogs in the home during her stay. I would definitely rebook with Donna to care for Chloe!”
“Alli was fantastic. She and her family are exactly the kind-hearted and responsible people that you would hope to leave your pet with. She sent me pictures throughout my dog's entire stay and was extremely accommodating with drop off and pick up times. Can not say enough good things. Thanks so much Alli!”
“Aaron and Tia were amazing with our pups! They went the extra mile and were extremely responsive and helpful with any needs the dogs had while we were on our honeymoon. I highly recommend them for exception care and a stress free trip!”
“Joe was great and we would be happy to leave Dakota in his care again. He was super flexible and provided daily updates which were really appreciated. Dakota made some dog friends and seemed to enjoy his lengthy visit. Joe lives near a wooded area so it was nice for Dakota to be a little bit out of the chaos of the city.”
“Brian and his wife took excellent care of my little guy Nino. He even sent me pictures during Nino’s stay. I would recommend Brian and will definitely use him in the future.”
“June was wonderful! It was our first time leaving our pup with a stranger and away from our home. We were extremely nervous, but June’s funny photos and videos of our dog reassured us that he was in wonderful hands. We will definitely reach out to June when our in-home sitter can’t help us out.”
“We’re so grateful for Danielle! She took amazing care of our dogs, Skye and Java, while we were away. She stayed in regular communication, sent plenty of updates and photos, and gave us such peace of mind. It was clear our babies were comfortable and well-loved. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring pet sitter!”
“My dog Lady had an great time with Ayla! I got awesome pictures of a happy dog. She was slept so busy that she passed out as soon as I got her home. I cannot recommend Ayla enough.”
“Krista and Kira are WONDERFUL! Clearly great dog lovers and were so sweet with our senior tripod. He was clearly so happy and relaxed with them and that made being away stress free! Thank you SO MUCH!”
“Rut was so great with my pups! They seemed very comfortable their entire stay. I greatly appreciated the updates and pictures Rut provided. I’ll definitely be leaving my girls with her the next time I have to travel.”
“Found Melonie on Rover and first met her back in January for a meet and greet before a trip I had been planning. That trip ended up not happening, so this was actually our first time using her services. The original meet-up went so well. My dog Sky isn't very socialized and tends to be anxious around new people and places, so how quickly she took to Melonie was a great sign. This was also the first time we'd left Sky with anyone outside of family, so that mattered a lot to us. Since some time had passed, Melonie graciously offered to do another meet and greet before this booking. Sky warmed up to her right away again. This time I brought my daughter along, and she felt just as confident in Melonie as I did. We both knew Sky was in good hands. Melonie has such a calm, pleasant presence, and it clearly puts Sky at ease. She sent us daily updates with pictures throughout the stay, and Sky looked happy and relaxed in every one. We'll absolutely be booking with Melonie again in the future!”
“Elizabeth was wonderful! Super communicative, sent lots of pictures, and was proactive about making sure our dog was as comfortable as possible during her stay. It was clear that she is knowledgable and experienced in caring for all kinds of dogs.”
“This was my second time leaving my rescue dog, Tao, with Rouday, and both experiences have been great. He was understanding of Tao's occasional timidity after being bounced between multiple shelters as a puppy. I also appreciate that he makes dog sitting a family affair, which has been great for Tao's socialization. I'd definitely recommend Rouday to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!”
About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.
“Mady is an exceptional fur baby boarder and my fur baby, Max absolutely loves her, Bandit and the family! She provided lots of daily updates with pictures, showing regular walks and playtime in the yard. Because of Mady, I was able to enjoy my first vacation in over 20 years without worrying about Max and I truly appreciate her. I can't thank Mady enough for providing exceptional care for Max while I was out of the country. My next vacation will definitely include a booking with Mady!❤️”

Diego and Natalia are THE BEST SITTERS for my Snow who demands love, attention and closeness. The photos of Snow playing with their cat's toy, at the window with their cat, both of them looking out of the the window is a regular meeting place with each other. At home Snow has started perching herself on the back of our sofa and even enjoying some of her best naps of the day. My family is very grateful for the care and attentiveness of Diego and Natalia toward Snow but also to the other pets being boarded during the same time. Photos of the pets hanging out together are reassuring that all the pets are well regarded by these sitters.
Thanks for taking Roo with short notice! She always has a good time and is happy to go to see Ciera. She is happy when she comes home and doesn’t seem stressed at all. I know Roo is cared for by photo updates of her being a ham! Will be my go to boarder after 2 perfect and stress free bookings! So easy to drop off, and communicate clearly without hassle. ❤️
Cayla was amazing! She was extremely communicative while booking the stay and was willing to meet before hand to meet the dogs. We have two dogs and one has separation anxiety. She was extremely patient and kind and kept us updated the entire time we were away. She sent us photos and video updates. I will 100% book with her again.
I had an absolutely wonderful experience boarding my dog, Crystal, with Tayshawn and her daughter from August 28th through September 4th. They did an outstanding job taking care of her and treated Crystal with so much love, attention, and care. It gave me such peace of mind knowing that Crystal was in good hands while I was away. Tayshawn and her daughter were dependable, caring, and made sure Crystal was comfortable and well cared for throughout her entire stay. I truly appreciate everything they did for my girl. I would absolutely trust them with Crystal again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like part of the family. Thank you both for taking such amazing care of Crystal! 🐾❤️
You da best! Thanks for caring for Blaze as you did, thank you for the daily pics, thank you for being flexible, agreeing to extend Blaze’s stay after unforeseen changes and thank you for your clear responsive communication. I would book Jayla again in a heartbeat and I know Blaze would agree.
Hello when I say this was my first time ever trusting someone with my fur babies it was the best decision. Linda kept me updated with videos and pictures throughout the time they stayed with her, i appreciated that so much. I will book with her again and again.
Ivy and Ruby rarely show excitement when visiting or spending time with humans, they tend to be rather chill or nonchalant. However, when they connect the dots that they are visiting with Lillian, they get excited and I see joy in them that brings me much comfort. Thank you Lilian for creating space for my little girls and for providing them exceptional care.
Tommy H.responded quickly and thankfully accommodated a last minute booking. He had an organized approach with intros, drop off, and pickup. He communicated daily with updates. When flight was delayed, he worked with another family member for pickup. 5 out of 5 gold 🌟 star service. Highly recommend Tommy H.

There are 7,722 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in District Heights. About 91% of District Heights sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
