“Tamara was a great sitter and took such wonderful care of Mickie. She sent videos and pictures all day long and we could tell Mickie was truly happy with them.”
“Very kind and responsive! They updated us several times throughout the week with how our Ace was doing. They even sent us videos and pictures. Will definitely book again!”
“Christian was so good with my pup. He took to her immediately and based on the photos and videos he enjoyed his time with her. Christian was very responsive especially with me being a bit nervous about about my lil guy being cared for by someone new.”
About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.
“Abigail did a great job caring for my dog over the 4th of July weekend. I was able to relax knowing my dog was in good hands. As a bonus my pup had a great time playing with sweet Stella. Abigail was easy to coordinate with, gave regular updates and also was very knowledgeable about dog play styles/dog behavior. Highly recommend!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Tommy. He is quick to respond, flexible with timing and he made our pups first stay with him a super positive experience! Tommy is clearly a very experienced dog owner and sitter. We already booked her summer vacation with Tommy 🙂”
“My dog, Lena, had the best time with Ms. June! Ms. June’s communication was top tier and she made sure Lena was loved on, taken care of, and having fun. I will definitely book again!”
“Robyn was a lifesaver by watching our dog Howie on very short notice. Even though Howie had newly begun having medical needs that required constant vigilance and a strict medication regimen, Robyn graciously and happily agreed to babysit him. She was so responsive and proactive and asked all the right questions about his needs, and Howie felt right at home with her. I can’t gush enough about how she came through for us, two strangers, in a critical moment. We will absolutely leave Howie with Robyn again and are so thankful to have found such a generous and compassionate sitter at such a stressful time”
“My active pug had a great stay with Colleen and family. I knew he was in great hands and they kept in touch with pics of Vinny and their lab Lily. Lucky to have found them!”
“Loic was incredibly responsive and flexible—and sent wonderful updates of Ducky playing with his similarly aged pup! Would definitely use his boarding services again.”
“Alli was fantastic. She and her family are exactly the kind-hearted and responsible people that you would hope to leave your pet with. She sent me pictures throughout my dog's entire stay and was extremely accommodating with drop off and pick up times. Can not say enough good things. Thanks so much Alli!”
“Krista and Kira are WONDERFUL! Clearly great dog lovers and were so sweet with our senior tripod. He was clearly so happy and relaxed with them and that made being away stress free! Thank you SO MUCH!”
“Rahel did a wonderful job with our girl Shirley! She sent pictures, gave us updates, and I could tell that our girl was happy! We will definitely be using Rahel again!”
“I was really concerned about my fur baby because she’s never been without family, EVER! We met Paula and her daughter at our arranged meet and greet which went well. When I dropped her off her her new friend on Friday, I told her to be a good girl and she looked back at me and turned running off with her new friend. They contacted us everyday, gave us updates with photos. I really think it was a good experience for both of them as well as myself. I will definitely rehire Paula and her wonderful family as my permanent sitter! 5 Stars ⭐️”
“Caleb was a perfect sitter. He was flexible and communicative and made sure my dog was comfortable and happy throughout his stay. Already booked for another stay, highly recommend.”
“We used Jeramy as a last minute sitter when our original plans fell through, and we were so happy with the experience! Our dog can be a nervous with new people, but she loved Jeramy and had a great time during her stay. She also sent lots of pictures and videos to keep us in the loop. We will definitely be using her again :)”
“It was such a pleasure meeting Fany! And took great care of Jade!!! I am so happy to know that Jade was being cared for by someone who knows how to care for little dogs!!!”

Myesha was very responsive and provided pictures of Willow throughout her stay! She gave a detailed description upon pick up of everything she ate whether or not she pottied. Although I didn’t take her up on it, she also offered to give a tour of her place prior to boarding.I would recommend and will definitely use again!
Jade is very warm and inviting. We agreed on a 2 hr. meet and greet visit for our pet to be with her, given her separation anxiety and not being with her regular sitter. Jade reported our pet whining for the first hour being with her. When I asked Jade if she would be open to a future visit in hopes of my pet becoming lass anxious. She was immediate in saying yes.
Diego and Natalia are THE BEST SITTERS for my Snow who demands love, attention and closeness. The photos of Snow playing with their cat's toy, at the window with their cat, both of them looking out of the the window is a regular meeting place with each other. At home Snow has started perching herself on the back of our sofa and even enjoying some of her best naps of the day. My family is very grateful for the care and attentiveness of Diego and Natalia toward Snow but also to the other pets being boarded during the same time. Photos of the pets hanging out together are reassuring that all the pets are well regarded by these sitters.
Thanks for taking Roo with short notice! She always has a good time and is happy to go to see Ciera. She is happy when she comes home and doesn’t seem stressed at all. I know Roo is cared for by photo updates of her being a ham! Will be my go to boarder after 2 perfect and stress free bookings! So easy to drop off, and communicate clearly without hassle. ❤️
KG was amazing with our two dogs. They've come back with more training then they started with after one weekend. She gets dogs - who they are, what they care about, what's fun, what's scary, what's too much - and meets them where they are. Can't recommend enough. Big bonus is the pictures you get - you feel comfortable knowing how much fun they're having.
I highly recommend Thalia as a pet sitter. Our dog had her first pet-sitting experience with Thalia and it was a great success. Thalia is kind and easy to communicate with. Our dog was very comfortable with Thalia. I was very stressed leaving our dog for the first time and Thalia made our separation stress-free. Thank you!
You da best! Thanks for caring for Blaze as you did, thank you for the daily pics, thank you for being flexible, agreeing to extend Blaze’s stay after unforeseen changes and thank you for your clear responsive communication. I would book Jayla again in a heartbeat and I know Blaze would agree.
Evelyn was amazing with my babies, Monty & Sandy. We needed a sitter on short notice while we drove our oldest to college and Evelyn came through for us beautifully. She was in constant communication and sent us daily pictures of our pups. They immediately rams towards her at drop off which confirmed the good energy we felt when booking. Will definitely be booking her again.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Fairmount Heights is $52 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $81 per night.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Fairmount Heights can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Fairmount Heights home-away-from-home, 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 Fairmount Heights.
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 Fairmount Heights 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 , 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 .
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.
