“Esther & Yi took wonderful care of Holly during her first stay with them over a long holiday weekend. They sent frequent photo updates of her spending time with their dogs and even kept us updated on her potty schedule, which we really appreciated. It gave us peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be boarding with them again. Thank you for taking such great care of our girl!”
“This was my first time using Rover and leaving my girl with someone other than family. I think I was more of a reck than she was lol. Amanda took great care of my girl. She sent daily pics and kept me updated on how she was doing. I will definitely be using her again. She really put my mind at ease and Lola seemed to have a good time. Thank you Amanda”

About: Hi! I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have cared for all kinds of pets over the years. Growing up, my family always had dogs, so I learned early on how to handle everything from playful puppies to senior dogs who needed a little extra attention. As an adult, I’ve personally owned small caged pets and currently own 2 cats, giving me a well-rounded understanding of different animal personalities and care needs. I currently share my home with two adopted cats, each with their own unique story and background. With patience and care, I was able to successfully introduce them to each other despite their age difference and differing temperaments—it was so rewarding and relieving to see them become friends! I understand that every pet is unique and deserves compassionate, individualized care, and I treat every animal I meet like one of my own. I currently work a full time job with the military during the week, but am home early in the afternoon to provide care, comfort, and cuddles to my furry friends and yours! I have a spacious apartment with lots of toys and 2 friendly cats to keep tour furry friend company. Walking around my neighborhood is a breeze with pet pickup spots along the way and a safe environment for walks no matter what time.
“Odessa was great! This was my very first time using Rover and the first time ever going on a week-long vacation and leaving my dog with someone, so I was super nervous. Odessa was very reassuring. She sent updates and photos of Rozay, which eased my mind and made me feel so much better as the days went by. I would definitely recommend her and will be booking her on my next trip.”
“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!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Tanya while she cared for my 14 year old yorkie, Buttons. She was extremely attentive to Buttons and his individual needs, and it was clear she was committed to helping him feel comfortable and acclimated to a new environment. She kept me informed every four hours or so with updates, which truly gave me peace of mind and made me feel completely comfortable leaving Buttons in her care. I’m so grateful for the care and attention she provided, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”
“Geovanna was absolutely amazing with my fur babies while I was out of the country! She updated me every single day and sent the sweetest photos of my girls, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My oldest, Cali, can be a bit feisty at times, but Geovanna handled everything so well and I am incredibly grateful. She was also extremely responsive, immediately answering any questions I had. To top it off, when my flight got delayed, she was so understanding and accommodating about extending the time. We all know things happen when traveling, and she made a stressful situation so much easier! I would definitely use Geovanna again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for safe, loving hands for their pets. 🤍🐶”
“This was our first time away from our 11 month old furry! Fidel and Melissa provided assurance during drop off and sent photos and communication through out his stay! There were a few other dogs too so that Creed had socialized play. We are pleased when we drove up and saw Creed in a sit, leaning against Melissa, and happy even before he saw us! Thank you guys for providing a home away from home!”
“Melissa and her family were great hosts for my dog! She sent a picture and gave updates and was very prompt to answer any questions. I look forward to having my dog stay with her again.”
“Lorenzo took exceptional care of our dog during holidays. He was kind, professional, and communicative. He updated us frequently and also shared a lot of photos which made us feel good. Thank you for being so flexible and kind to our dog during holidays. We sincerely look forward to working with you again in the near future.”
“Karla is an amazing dog sitter! She was so sweet to our little old pup, took great care of him, and sent us beautiful portraits of him regularly. We felt completely confident in her ability and her compassion.”
“Jeremy is awesome, he took care of my Luna for several days, providing several updates during the day with pics of my girl. Getting to see pics of Luna on walks and playing with other dogs showed me she is in good habds. Thanks Jeremy!”

I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Kyury. She was very attentive and communicative. Her location also has a lot of good walking areas for plenty of walking. I could tell Kyury loves animals and wants to do her best to provide pets with the most comfortable, enjoyable time while their parents are away!
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Leaving our newly adopted fur babies for the first time was incredibly nerve wracking, but from the moment I met Alejandra, I knew they were in the best hands. She treated them like they were her own, giving them so much love, patience and attention while keeping us updated with photos and messages that gave us complete peace of mind. It was obvious our pups felt safe, comfortable and truly cared for. Coming home to 2 happy, relaxed dogs meant everything to us. We are beyond grateful for the exceptional care she provided and will absolutely be booking with her again. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets as much as you do, look no further. Alejandra is simply amazing! ❤️🐾
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!
Brandi and her family took great care of our dog Milo for a short Christmas stay. It was just his first time there but her Rover reviews were very favorable so we felt good about leaving him. Brandi sent photos and videos of Milo playing and it was obvious that they made Milo feel very comfortable, just like part of the family. We will definitely use Brandi again!
Justin was amazing! He took such great care of Zoie and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. He sent regular updates and photos, and it was clear that Zoie was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Justin and will definitely book with him again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Elkridge on Rover is $66.6 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 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 5,750 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.

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.
