“We had a great meet up and immediately felt the warm fuzzies. My dogs loved both Maurice and Kelly right away. It was an easy decision for us, they kept us constantly aware and made us feel good about our babies being away from us that they were in safe hands. Thank you for watching our babies”
“Lindsay is amazing! I took a trip abroad and left my fur babies in her care while I was away and I couldn't be happier with the service she provided. Lindsay is very responsive and provided pictures and updates without me ever having to ask. I highly recommend her for your boarding needs. I will most definitely be sending my babies back to her for future trips.”
“We continue to use Vincent and Lynette time after time, our dog feels right at home with them. This stay was nearly two weeks long and she had so much fun as always.”
“Monica did an excellent job caring for our pups. She provided daily pictures and reports to provide us with status updates. It is clear she has a passion and great patience for dogs. One of our pups didn't want to come home lol! Highly recommend and would use her again in the future.”
“Very pleasant and inviting! Cared for my big boy Adonis like he was her own. I really appreciated the video and photograph check-ins throughout his stay with her. It was definitely comforting with it being my first time leaving him with a sitter. I definitely recommend her home and her care for your fur babies!”
“This was Balee's first boarding stay with Mady. She and her family were Ah-Mazing! I felt bad leaving because of an ear infection that he was diagnosed with a day before our departure. Balee received lots of TLC during his visit and Mady kept me updated about his adjustment daily (which was comforting).”
“Jackalyn was awesome. I was really anxious but she gave me peace of mind. Sent daily updates and pics which helped me out since I knew everything was good with Yuki while I was gone! Would absolutely recommend her.”
“Bianca is awesome! Simply the best! I will be leaving my dog here all the time! Bianca sent updates and pictures for me everyday.I was a bit nervous about leaving my dog because this is the first time in a long time I had to leave my dog because I was going out of town on a business trip. Bianca assured me my dog was in great hands! Truly my dog was in great hands! My dog made herself at home, had a wonderful time, and made some new friends! Bianca is a nice person and I can tell she cares about the dogs she watches and has a ton of experience taking care of dogs! I highly recommend Bianca to care for any dog!”
“Pax had another fun time staying with Denise and Andy. He couldn’t wait to get into her home when we arrived and scratched at the door to get in. I will definitely try to rebook with her in the future.”
“Dog whisperers! Vanessa & Giovanni are platinum level pet sitters! I read the incredible reviews and am pleased to say “believe the hype!” My three year old pup, Kingston, had an excellent stay for over a week! It was his first time with them and I was very nervous about a new sitter when I was headed out of the country. Minutes after arrival, I was at ease and Kingston was relaxed and curious. I could see my dog would be well cared for by intelligent, good, and thoughtful people. My detailed instructions were followed and they went beyond to ensure my pup was comfortable and felt welcomed. I received daily updates, pictures, and a very adorable video. They are absolutely worth the booking!! I’d add more stars if I could. I will be a repeat client!”
“Shuling was very attentive and kept in contact with us during Gizmo’s stay. We received several photos throughout the weekend. With Gizmo being blind, we are always concerned for her safety but Shuling set our minds at ease. Will definitely use her again when we come to Annapolis. 🥰”
“Crystal was wonderful looking after our two small dogs! She gave them lots of attention and took great care administering medications for our elder one. Her frequent updates and communication were great! We received photos and videos of their day. Our “kids” are exhausted, in a good way. I’m pretty sure they’d have been happy to stay. We’re thankful for all of Crystal’s care and love! Knowing they’re in good hands makes our time away a little easier.”
“Ms. Lillian was great…! She sent updates on how my babygirl was adjusting/doing throughout our separation. She’ll be Coco’s sitter for now on! I’ll be recommending her to whom ever I come across that needs a CARING sitter…! Thx again Ms. Lillian”
“Liz took great care of my whippet, Aster. Liz communicated and sent pictures regularly. My dog will be going back to Liz's for a 2 week stay in March. I highly recommend Liz!”
“Chris and his wife are amazing! They really made our dog feel at home and like part of the family. When I had a schedule change, they were easy to work with. He was very communicative and nice. Definitely booking with him again.”
“Laura was awesome! Chacco had a blast during his weekend sleepover and loved hanging out with the other pups. She took great care of him, and I felt totally at ease knowing he was in good hands. He came home happy and tired—always a good sign! Definitely booking with her again.”
“Aaron and Tia will forever be my go to person for pet-sitting. I have a 4 month old French bulldog and he seems to be at home with them and I love how they communicate and send videos and pictures of my fur baby while I'm away. They definitely are educated about pets and what is needed, because they educated me about how to train my puppy. They are very welcoming and family/pet oriented.”
“Aleah is absolutely amazing. I expressed how nervous i was leaving my fur baby and she instantly eased my nerves. I can really tell she cared for my pet. She sent me pictures keeping me updated during his whole stay. I will 100% be booking with her again & i recommend anyone looking for a sitter to chose her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dunkirk
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Chris and his wife! They took incredible care of my two Yorkies and treated them like their own. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease knowing my pups were in loving, capable hands. They gave them so much attention, affection, and care—making sure they were comfortable, happy, and well-loved the entire time. I received updates that truly put my mind at ease, and it was clear my dogs were not only being looked after, but genuinely cared for. When I returned, my Yorkies were relaxed, happy, and clearly bonded with their sitter. That says everything. I’m beyond grateful for the love and dedication shown, and I would absolutely trust them again without hesitation. Five stars all the way—highly recommend!
Madalyn and her family went above and beyond for our little guy. They took exceptional care of our dog who has history of separation anxiety and used their knowledge and skills to make sure that our boy felt like safe and free of anxiety and boy, did it work! I am so overjoyed that I found an individual who I can rely on to make my pup feel safe and happy!
Stephanie and Robert are AMAZING !!! We were nervous to drop our doggie off because he is a pound dog with severe anxiety but they took care of him like he was their own!. We got pics and updates throughout his stay. We were afraid he may not want to come home . We will definitely be using them every-time we leave town .

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Dunkirk on Rover is $42.8 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 5,911 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Dunkirk. 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.
96% of Dunkirk 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 Dunkirk 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 Dunkirk 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 Dunkirk.
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 Dunkirk 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.
