Jona was absolutely wonderful with our skittish pupper and high energy herder. She was incredibly patient and took the time to make sure our dogs felt safe and comfortable, which we really appreciated. We received frequent updates, photos, and check-ins throughout the stay. It was so reassuring to see our doggos in good hands. Communication was excellent; she was always quick to respond and super easy to coordinate with. We’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!

Stacy and her family took great care of Jade. It was a big relief to us that Jade was very comfortable while we were on our trip. Jade really enjoyed herself, especially, with the kids. We would like to leave Jade with Stacy whenever possible!

Very reliable. Melonie did outstanding in caring for Fitz. She made sure i see pictures daily. She became a 2nd Mom to Fitz; no adjustment needed when we dropped him off and he was happy and content when we picked him up. He’s normally anxious in change of environment but he really felt a home with Melonie and her household. No issues at all in our previous and current visits.

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.

Kathleen has now cared for our two dogs 3 times (almost more than we saw them last month). She is absolutely amazing; she has no problem getting my older dog to take her pills, they get super excited to see her and she has been beyond flexible with us on drop off and pick-up. I highly recommend her!

Randi was phenomenal!! From the start she had great communication and you could tell that she takes watching other peoples pets very seriously. She watched our pup for 5 days and I have never felt more at ease being away from my girl. Randi sent very detailed daily updates and lots of photos so I knew my dog was being well taken care of every day. She treated my dog like she were her own, which is all I could ask for from a sitter. 10/10 would recommend!

I was thoroughly impressed by the care Anna and her husband provided to my Bella. It was for a 10 day stay for Bella and it appeared she was on vacation. Anna provided many pics of Bella, that showed she was safe and loved. Bell definitely enjoyed herself with Anna’s two dogs, Rosie and Misa. I will count on Anna again in the future. I truly appreciate the services Anna provided.

Anne is a fabulous sitter. She knew exactly how to make my anxious pup feel right at home. I was out of country for a week, and Anne did a wonderful job of providing multiple, daily updates to let me know my pup was doing well. I would recommend Anne to anyone looking for a safe, reliable, trusted home to board their fur babies. Thank you, Anne!

CJ was absolutely fantastic with my dog! Having never left my pet with anyone besides family, I was quite nervous. After searching through countless sitters, I chose CJ, and I couldn't have made a better decision. He provided daily photos and updates, and the overall vibe was just perfect! My dog looked so comfortable that I wondered if she would even want to come home! Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience!

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.

FAQs for Boarding - Fort Washington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Fort Washington on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of August 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 7,059 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Fort Washington. About 91% 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.

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.
