“This was our girl Elsie’s first stay and it worked out great! Mary and James are lovely and we could tell that they were spoiling our girl. We loved the funny photos they sent. We look forward to having our dog stay there again”
“Lydia was fantastic! She welcomed her home to us with her lovely family including her chickens during our meet and greet. We proceeded to boarding 2 nights with her. Her home provided a warm, cozy and energetic vibe for our Poodle who is out going and craves human interaction. Lydia was not familiar with poodle grooming initially but after a quick demonstration and positive feedback she mastered it in no time. I appreciated her attention to detail, ability to communicate throughout the day and her willingness to learn how to care for specific dog breeds. It was a mutual rewarding experience and she even supervised her children doing obedience training with our pup.”
“Lingli was so kind and attentive to our dog. She sent frequent updates and pictures that made us at ease being away from our fur baby. We will definitely be booking with her again next time we go out of town :)”
“Feliz & Ken are the only people I trust my baby with. When Higgy is with them, he is with family and I have amazing peace of mind that is priceless!”
“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.”
“Casey and Marwa are the BEST! They spoiled our large dog Indiana to no end with multiple long walks every day, playtime, cuddles, and even grooming. There was plenty of space to roam freely in the house. They posted many pictures and videos every day. Their Pug Kevin is so cute and friendly! Indy came home well fed, nicely groomed, happy, and relaxed.”
“Cola was well taken care of for her overnight stay with Auana! I received photo updates and they treated her like one of their own! Even going the extra mile to brush her and send her back so happy :)”
“Our dog had the best time. Brittanie & Ryan sent us daily photos and updates. They took wonderful care of our dog. We will be using them again for boarding and for walking. So comforting to know our “baby” is in good hands.”
“Jena is the best!!!! Whenever we are leaving our dog Ellie with Jena, we tell her she is going to camp because she loves it so much! She always makes a new friend and is totally exhausted from playing by the time we bring her home. Jena truly treats her like a pet of her own, and we are so grateful!”
“What a wonderful, loving family to leave your fur baby with! Tater had a ball swimming and running around the farm! Heather sent me so many pictures and I could tell he was getting so much love and attention. I can’t thank you enough!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“Nautica was great! This was the first time boarding my puppy. Nautica scheduled a meet and greet before I left her. And, she was so accommodating - my schedule changed as my flight was delayed. I will book with her again.”
“Zeke had a great time at Samantha’s. She gave us constant updates. She took special care of Zeke as he has some hip issues. I glad I found her and would definitely use her services in the future.”
“Angie and family were great with our two boys, treated them like family. We got lots of updates and photos, and we always knew the boys were ok. Would definitely have them watch Boh and Tequila again.”

I never had to worry about Tater’s happiness or wellbeing. Thank you all so much for taking such wonderful care of my boy! ❤️❤️❤️”
“Mila took such wonderful, heartfelt care of my dog. She kept me updated with photos and great communication, which gave me so much peace of mind. I am incredibly grateful for how attentively she looked after my dog, and I truly feel lucky to have found such an amazing sitter.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Eldersburg
Our dog is usually very shy but she loves Michelle and her mom. She almost didn’t want to leave after staying with them a few days. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust to watch her while we are away. And we also love the pictures and videos she sends of her during our trip!
Lydia took wonderful care of my 2 Goldens & sent lots of photos and updates without even having to ask. Our dogs got lots of love from her whole family and cared for them as if they were their own dogs. They had a lot of outdoor time in the large yard and came home very happy. I would absolutely rebook with Lydia and I highly recommend her!
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!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Eldersburg on Rover is $48.56 per night (as of June 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 .

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.
