“I am so pleased I was able to found boarding for my doggie Jojo with Chelsea. I was constantly kept informed by way of pictures and notes of how he was doing. My pet appeared to feel comfortable and at home. In my opinion from the updates it was due to the care and love shown to him. I’m truly grateful; this was the longest period I was away from him. I will definitely use the service in the future based on opportunity and or availability. Thank you Chelsea & family”
“Alesha takes great care of our pups and provides a lot of updates! They always come back happy and sleepy. This past time, our pup was a little sick and Alesha went out of her way to give her special food and kept us updated on her status.”
“Sapphire came in clutch taking in Luna for a last-minute booking. Initially concerned that my 10 y/o Luna (husky/lab) hadn’t had too much exposure to other dogs, she ensured capabilities to be able to separate if warranted. By the time I came to pick her up, Luna had made a whole batch of new friends. Very grateful to have come across a wonderful host. Communication throughout her stay was great and I didn’t have a worry about Luna’s care!”
“Royce had such a great experience! She was very communicative the entire time and kept me updated with lots of pictures, which I really appreciated. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. I could tell he was well cared for and comfortable. I would definitely book with her again!”
“My pup was so spoiled in love and clearly very happy and comfortable! Best Rover stay she’s had yet! 🥰 I highly recommend booking with Melonie. She provided tons of photos, daily updates and was very thorough in our initial meet and greet. Thank you for caring for Gianna, Melonie!!”
“Always so thankful for Jona’s care and help! CoCo was so well taken care of, and Jona even gave her a bath. I know CoCo will already be looking forward to her next visit. Thank you again!”
“Jason & Jeremy were awesome. Very responsive when I was checking in on my dog and sent pictures. Also my dog is afraid of thunderstorms and they did everything and went the extra mile to keep him calm. My dog was well taken care of and clean. 5 stars will definitely be booking with them from now on.”
“Jennifer and Louis are FANTASTIC. They are Dolly's home away from home. I feel 100% at ease with Dolly in Jennifer's 24 hour care. Dolly has stayed with Jennifer before - and just now for 2 weeks and I will fly up from Florida for Dolly to stay with Jennifer and Louis when my family and I travel Internationally in October. Jennifer communicates, send pictures and keeps us informed. We love Jennifer and Dolly is always happy to see her and Louis.”
“It is always a pleasure to book with Julia. Dior is like family to her and her mom. Dior is always well taken care of in their presence. I highly recommend Julia, she gets an A1star rating! Thanks Julia for taking special care of my dog. Xo💋”
“Brittany did a fantastic job taking care of my dog, Frito. She provided daily photo and video updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Frito was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for during his stay. Brittany was very communicative, kind, and easy to work with. Her daughter was wonderful with Frito too, and they quickly became best buds. I would gladly trust Brittany to watch Frito again.”
“Jennifer is an exceptional catsitter. My cat is very fearful when in an unfamiliar environment, but Jennifer put time, patience, and consistent effort into making him feel relaxed, and he became so comfortable, that he'd brush up against her, allow her to pet him, and sit next to her. Not everyone has a way animals, but Jennifer definitely does. I highly recommend her services.”
“Russ and family took great care of our 13 year-old Goldendoodle for nine nights. Copper has a few health issues, and is on several medications that he takes four times per day. Russ ensured that Copper got all his meds and kept track on a chart we provided. He also sent photos daily showing Copper doing well which gave us great comfort while we were away on vacation. Russ and family are clearly dog lovers, and I would definitely recommend them and would use them again.”
“Nina is fantastic!! She was very attentive and affectionate with Cesare, sending me messages, photos, and videos so I could see how he was doing, which made me feel very happy and relieved. Cesare was very happy in every video, playing and receiving affection from her. Cesare will definitely be going back to Nina's house.”
“Tanita and Terrence are wonderful. My puppy made lots of friends and came home after 5 nights away from home with no stress or anxiety. He wasn't cooped up in a kennel all day and I was sent lots of pics and updates while we were away. 5 star all the way.”
“I recently used Shayla for the weekend and was very satisfied. She was attentive, provided regular updates and photos, and followed all instructions perfectly. Kolton was happy and well-cared for. I’ll definitely use her again!”
“Great sitter. Dallas really loved staying with Juliana and even made new friends. Amazing communication and pics/videos of Dallas throughout his stay. 10/10 would recommend and book again”
“Dan boarded my niece's beagle and my lab mutt over Christmas week, and I couldn't be happier for how the pups got to spend their holiday. As a former dog owner, their home and yard is very dog friendly, and it was clear they enjoyed the stay and the attention they were able to constantly coax out of Dan and his daughters. They were even able to relax and hang out with the resident cat. I highly recommend Dan if you need to board your dog for any reason.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Washington
We had a wonderful experience with Dana! From the moment we met her, our dog Gio seemed comfortable, relaxed, and right at home. It gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. Throughout his stay, Dana kept us updated regularly and sent plenty of pictures and videos, which we truly appreciated. It was clear that Gio was happy, well cared for, and receiving lots of attention. Dana was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter.
Erin was fantastic watching our terrier, Wally. It was his first time boarding with Rover and he can be anxious, so it was really wonderful how patient and encouraging Erin was. She took excellent care of Wally, even sending a photo and update during the overnight visit. We had a great experience and highly recommend Erin.
Randi’s communication throughout the booking/boarding/pickup process was prompt and professional. During the pet boarding period, Randi provided daily updates and photos to reassure us our pup was doing well and thriving during his stay. I highly recommend Randi and will definitely be booking again!
I had an amazing experience with Maya!!! She was incredible kind, reliable and attentive throughout the time my sky was with her. I really appreciated how quick she responded whenever I checked in, a the updates gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that my sky was cared for and loved. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!!!
Hanna and Fabio are Peanut Butter’s favorites and took excellent care of him. We received timely updates and felt very comfortable leaving our pup in their care. Fabio really went above and beyond and worked with our schedule to accommodate pick up and drop offs and we really appreciate their flexibility. Thanks for everything!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
There are 6,992 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Fort Washington. About 90% of Fort Washington 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.

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.
