“Taylor took great care of Coco while we went on vacation. She sent pics throughout Coco’s stay and Coco seemed to be right at home. Thank you Taylor for caring for our pup! We will definitely use Taylor again.”
“Outstanding. Highly recommend. I left my two doggies with Lorenzo when I had to go out of town. They came home happy and tired, which is the sign of a great time. He communicated regularly and sent lots of pictures (which I had asked for). Their big yard was fantastic for my energetic Australian Shepherd/Poodle mixes and I had absolutely no concerns about them while I was away.”
“Brittanie and Ryan were wonderful sitters for our dog this weekend! She seemed to have gotten very comfortable in their home pretty quickly and had no issue coexisting with their dogs at all. They sent frequent update pictures and really went above and beyond bringing our dog to our wedding so she could be included in our pictures. Overall great first Rover experience and would happily use them again!”
“Rey was so great!! He sent me so many photos of my girl and she looked like she was having the time of her life! Unfortunately, I had some flight issues in my way home and Rey was so beyond accommodating. Will definitely be booking him again!”
“Alonni is a wonderful dog sitter! You can tell that she truly loves dogs and caring for them. I knew Peter was in good hands when I dropped him off. She communicated every day with lots of pictures. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing Peter was being well taken care of. Thank you Alonni!”
“Ahhhmazing!!! Michelle will absolutely be our go to dog sitter! Oliver is still a puppy so he is high energy and still working on his potty training. This was our first time using rover and his first time away from us. Michelle took care of him above and beyond our expectations! She sent us model pictures of him daily (much better than he lets us take of him, so we have new profile pics of him, lol!) She provided daily updates with the pics too, all of which gave us complete peace of mind! We couldn’t have had a better experience and that made our vacation that much more relaxing. We are extremely thankful to Michelle for treating Oliver like her own! 😊”
“Priscilla again took fantastic care of our dog. Our dog typically gets anxious and he just was so comfortable with Priscilla right away. He will be seeing Priscilla again 😊. Thank you!”
“Karla did an awesome job boarding our 2 cats for the weekend. She was responsive and provided frequent updates and we could tell our cats were getting lots of love and attention from the photos she provided. Highly recommend for boarding!”
“Theresa is exceptional! We were a bit nervous to leave our boy, Otto, for the first time. Daily check ins from Theresa put us at ease. It was clear from the pictures that he was as comfy and happy as can be in Theresa’s home. We will definitely be reaching out to Theresa next time we have to leave our boy in good hands.”
“Jason did a fantastic job taking care of my dog and I would recommend him 100%. Jason was highly communicative and I received many picture and video updates. My pup had a great time going on plentiful walks with him. I look forward to booking with Jason again in the future!”
“Jenna and her family were amazing with our dogs and. They loved spending the time with her. Her communication was extraordinary during our stay. We look forward to booking with her again in the future.”
“We are so thankful that Angelina & Josh were willing to step in, last minute, and watch Lina for the weekend! They said she got along well their other pets, enjoyed walks along the beautiful farm land near their home, & got cuddle time with them. There’s no question we would feel comfortable bringing Lina back to stay w them again!!”
“Aster helped us in a very last minute pinch when our dog sitting plans fell through for an out of town vacation! Our puppy is under a year old and has a leg injury so required some special attention and care. This made us extra nervous to leave her but we received so many wonderful updates throughout our trip. Our pup loved her time away because of how awesome Aster and her family took care of her. We’ll absolutely be booking with them again!”
“Rodney truly loves animals. He put me at ease, answering all my questions quickly. My dogs have never been boarded, one is 13 and the other 3. We initially did a meet and greet and I knew they would be in amazing hands. We did an overnight and they never looked back when he walked them into the house. Lol Put my mind at ease. Definitely sending them to Rodney and Marissa again. 😊”
“Ariel is amazing with my dog - Fluffy. Fluffy seems to really like her and is very happy to be dropped off there. I trust Ariel completely and highly recommend her!”
“Tanya was so awesome with my dog. He was well taken care of and there was great communication. There was plenty of updates and photos. I know my pup had a great time. I will be using her services again.”

We know our dog will always be in good hands here!! We love the updates we get everyday with pics/videos. Robin and her family are so organized and give every dog exceptional love and care :) I highly recommend to go with their services if you want a trustworthy and caring family to take care of your dog!
We absolutely loved having Jingru watch Gamja. He’s almost 2 years old and has a lot of energy, so it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he had her dog, Kai, there to play with. From all the photos and videos Jingru sent, it was obvious Gamja and Kai got along really well and had such a fun time together. She also sent us lots of updates from his multiple walks, and you could genuinely tell how much love and attention she and her husband gave him. Gamja became so fond of Jingru and her husband that when it was time to leave, he did something he has never done before—he actually protested getting into the car and kept turning his head back to see if Jingru, her husband, and Kai were coming with us. That honestly told us everything we needed to know about how happy and comfortable he was there. We joked that they might have taken better care of our dog than we do sometimes 😂. It truly felt like a little “dog-cation” for our furry son. We were able to travel with zero guilt because we knew he was having just as much fun as we were, or honestly maybe even more. Between all the walks, attention, and playtime with Kai, he came home completely happy and exhausted and slept so well. We’re genuinely so grateful for the care they gave Gamja and would absolutely trust Jingru with him again.
Alejandra and her husband have been the most incredible sitters I’ve trusted my Aussie with on Rover. Besides providing a comfortable environment with plenty of supervision, water, and attention, they took my high-energy girl on walks, hikes, beach trips, and other outings, treated her to pup cups, and brought her to dog parks while ensuring safety and peace-of-mind. (All within a single week!) With a lot of sitters, you worry about what weird behaviors or minor health problems your dog might bring home. I had no worries with Alejandra. She is moving significantly farther away from my location in the near future, and the fact that I’m going to ask her to pet-sit again just goes to show how impressed I was.
Richa was an amazing sitter for my dogs while I was out of town. I always get nervous to leave them with anyone, but Richa put me at ease and was very accommodating to my concerns and the dogs' schedules and needs. She was also great with communication, sending me updates and asking questions. Richa even took my dogs on walks and an adventure to see the cherry blossom trees. Cannot thank her enough. Would book again. Thanks Richa!
Sarah is an absolute dream with both of my pups. They both adore her and her husband and love playing in her yard. She is super attentive and sends me lots of pictures every time they are with her. You can really tell how much she cares for animals. We are so lucky we found her!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Elkridge on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 5,766 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Elkridge. About 91% of Elkridge sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
