“James and Mary are great! You can tell that they really care about the dogs and enjoy having them. I always feel good leaving my two dogs with them. My dogs love staying with James and Mary and have so much fun.”
“This was my 1st time leaving my dog anywhere, so of course I was nervous, but the reviews were excellent so I gave it a shot...... my dog is probably very happy that I did! I'm sure she had the time of her life for the week she was there judging from the daily pics ?. A few minutes after arriving to drop her off and talking with Rodney I felt super comfortable and knew she was in good hands. When I came to pick her up she couldn't have cared less that I was there lol! I've already recommend them to a few people and will definitely use them again if I need to keep her somewhere...... or for her to just get a little playtime for herself ?”
“Sammy had such a great stay with Jena at The Doggy Den 🐾 She kept me updated with pictures and videos, and he clearly had the best time playing his heart out lol. Communication was always prompt and professional, and I really appreciated her letting me know whenever she had to step out briefly. The space is calm and beautiful with a huge fenced-in backyard, and she even kept Sammy in his familiar sleeping setup. I felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care—we’ll definitely be booking again soon 💛”
“Phyo is a patient and excellent sitter! My dog, Tony can sometimes be a bit difficult, and Phyo was patient during our first meet and greet. He also lives in a great neighborhood, so you can be rest assured that you furry friend will have a great time staying with him. I will be using Phyo again!”
“Curtis and Lindsay were great, sharing pictures and communicating the whole time we were away. Our pup appeared content, happy and tired out when we brought her home. Would definitely recommend!”
“Karen and Patrick are the best! We felt so comfortable leaving our dog with them and the pictures they sent showed that he was having a wonderful time. We will definitely use them again!”
“Lora and her family are phenomenal. They are definitely going to be my ongoing sitter for my girls. I took an international trip and I didnt worry about my two dogs once. They were taken care of very well to the point where when they got home I think they miss Lora and their furry friends at her house. She sent me the most beautiful videos of my girls running and having a blast on their property which is a tremendous yard and her dog Nash is a total sweetheart. Thank you for taking such lovely care of my fur faces :-).”
“Auana was excellent! My puppy was in great hands, she is super responsive and gave me updates throughout my dog’s stay with her. Her willingness to follow my dog’s care plan was extra comforting. Will be booking her again!”
“Felice and Ken are absolutely wonderful. I can’t feel more at ease leaving my dogs with them. I know they are in good hands and I can relax knowing they are safe with them. I won’t hesitate to use them again and again if they are available”
“Ms Kimberly was great. I get pictures on a daily basis. My baby for sure had fun! I highly recommend! Thank you very much again to Ms Kim for caring for my baby.”
“Jon and Jen are fantastic!!! My pooches came home worn out!! Their communication was amazing!! They sent the best pics and kept us updated on how the dogs were doing! They spoiled our fur babies and treated them like they were part of the family! It was so reassuring to know our dogs were so well taken care of while we were out of town!”
“Mila is a great fit for our dog Ramona, who is a companion dog and loves to be with people but is a bit afraid of other dogs. Mila sends updates and pictures throughout the stay and we feel confident that Ramona is well cared for while we are away. This was Ramona's second stay with Mila and we already have another booking with her. We love Mila!”
“We have booked Kimberly multiple times and she has done a great job of taking care of our golden doodle. Bonnie has enjoyed running around in her backyard. She sends regular updated photos too.”
“Took wonderful care of our mini-golden doodle when we went away on a family vacation. Our dog warmed up to her immediately! She lets them get exercise and cuddles, is responsive and sends pics of their day. We will definitely ask Susan to watch our beloved furry family member again!”
“Alex was very responsive and the dogs seemed to love staying at his house, running in the yard, and playing with Alex's dog Reese. He also sent a lot of pics which was really appreciated! Alex--thanks again for taking care of the twins!”
“Amber and her family took good care of our dog, Bella, for the weekend! She responded promptly to messages and coordinating our meet and greet and pick up/drop off times. She sent pictures during Bella’s stay and it seemed like Bella enjoyed her time!”
“Leaving my dog to someone I had just met once caused some consternation. However, with that first meeting I had a "meet and greet" with Steven and his own dog, which turned out just right. I dropped my cocker spaniel off with confidence. Steven sent me pictures and an update as to how my Gabby settled in. I was able to feel comfortable and able to attend a function without concern for Gabby. When I picked her up she was happy and had received wonderful care! I have returned to the area after being gone 23 months. I lost some contacts that I had. I feel enormously relieved that I have someone professional, reliable, and kind to leave Gabby with should I need to do so in the future. You will not be disappointed should you leave your trust in Steven, nor will your dog.”
“Deivy was great! Very accommodating for my extremely high energy dog. Even when she chewed through her harness, he had a new one to put on her. Will definitely be a repeat customer!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Eldersburg
James and Mary were wonderful! They took great care of our two pups and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout their stay! Our dogs usually come home a bit stressed when we have used other boarding places, but after picking our boys up, they were super happy and relaxed! We look forward to using them again!
We had a wonderful experience with Lydia! She and her family took excellent care of our dog while we were away, kept us updated with messages and photos, and gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We truly appreciated her reliability, kindness, and genuine care for our dog. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their dogs!
Megan was very responsive during booking. Communication was clear and easy. She was able to accommodate a slight modification of our drop off time after our plans had to change. I really appreciated the photos and updates. she sent each day. It was nice knowing our pup was in such good care.
We had our rambunctious pups boarded for 5 days with Veronica and family. We will 100% book with them again and I highly recommend them! They communicate very well, send updates and are easy going and patient with them. Definitely a home away from home for our pups!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Eldersburg on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 5,409 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Eldersburg. 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.
93% of Eldersburg 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 Eldersburg 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 Eldersburg 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 Eldersburg.
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 Eldersburg 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.
