“We needed a last minute dogsitter for our puppy while we left town for a few days. Christina not only was willing to watch our dog on a last minutes notice but took the best care of him! He came back calm, happy, and relaxed. We knew he felt so comfortable with her. Thank you so much for such great care of our dog, Christina! We can’t recommend her enough!”
“Tracy is a wonderful caretaker. This was Rosie’s first time with her. Tracy really focused on my dog, and spent time with her to make sure was happy and having fun. She left me a lot of updates to reassure me throughout the day. I know my dog was well taken care of and had fun at her home.”
“We highly recommend Lisa to watch your fur baby. Lisa and her family did a great job watching our English Bulldog Pablo while we were away for a long weekend. Pablo requires a lot of extra attention because he is a short nose breed. Lisa sent us photos and videos while we were away and we could tell that Pablo was having a fabulous time. Lisa was quick to reply for any communications we might have while we were gone. We will definitely be contacting Lisa the next time we need someone to watch Pablo.”
“Madison is so sweet! She and her mom care for the dogs and you can tell they love animals. She sent pictures and they loved it there. There were some changes in the schedule and she went out of her way to communicate and accommodate the situation. We feel relief knowing our girls are safe and well cared for!”
“Brad was friendly and courteous. My pups seemed very happy when I picked them up, and he was kind enough to send a couple pictures of them getting all the cuddles they could want!”
“Stephanie and Justin are very kind people who made us feel comfortable and assured our pup would be loved and cared for. We recieved daily updates and pictures of Junior having a great time playing with their pup. We appreciate your great care and would definitely recommend you both to other people looking to Rover!!!”
“Laura was absolutely amazing!! She took wonderful care of our two mini dachshunds! Right away, we felt comfortable with her and knew that she would give them excellent care and attention on their over night stays!! My husband and I will go out of our way to make sure we use Laura again if needed. We have two senior babies, and one is very special needs. She gave her all her medication, food, and extra attention. She made sure that they were comfortable and kept them right on their normal routine! If I could give her 10 stars I would! Thank you so much Laura and family!”
“If you’re looking for someone who is caring, clearly loves dogs, and will put you at ease while you’re traveling, then Natalie is the right choice. She sent us photos every day, took good care of our two doggos, and when we picked them up they were relaxed and happy. In fact, one of my dogs didn’t want to leave. You can’t do better. Thanks Natalie!”
“Rebecca and Michael were amazing! I had no worries while my fur baby was staying with them. They sent me lots of pictures of their activities and always made me feel at ease. Would highly recommend them!”

“Danielle and family took such great care of Oscar. He spent his days going on walks, playing outside, snuggling/cuddling, and hanging with his new best Nyla. He can’t wait to see his friends again. Danielle was amazing with Oscar and is a great communicator sending photos/videos and updates.”
“Denise kept my little guy for a day and a half while we were visiting St. Augustine. She is extremely accommodating and professional. It is clear that she loves animals and treats them very well. My pup has separation anxiety, so I'm very picky about who I will leave him with. The moment I met Denise I knew that he would be in great hands. I was able to enjoy my vacation with the comfort of knowing my little Onyx was safe and happy. I would recommend Denise a hundred times over and I will definitely be contacting her the next time I'm in St. Augustine.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Elkton on Rover is $42.18 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 .
As of June 2026, there are 764 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elkton. 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 Elkton 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 Elkton 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 Elkton 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 Elkton.
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 Elkton 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 FL 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.
