“I love Samantha. So does my puppy. What’s not to love? We have had her sit Elvis a few times now and are always so happy about his stay! She sends photos and updated often - and replies fast. Laika (her dog) is Elvis’s new bestie!!! Samantha even bought Elvis more food because he ran out before we even had time to panic!!! She is amazing.”
“Bethany was a fantastic dog sitter. Her communication was excellent, and she regularly sent pictures that showed our dog, Gunner was happy and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Thanks again!”
“Adrienne is a wonderful person who takes excellent care of Teddy. She lives in a home without children or other pets, so she can give all her attention to Teddy, which is exactly what I was looking for.”
“I had travel plans all squared away and our usual sitter had an emergency and couldnt take care of our dog. Tammy was so fast in responding and took great care of our little one. I will definitly request Tammy's services for my next boarding. She is courteous, responsive and accomidating, and gets a five stars from me.”
“Adam and Allison are amazing! Our dogs had such a great time, I don’t think they even wanted to come home with us! They sent regular updates and we felt so comfortable knowing they were in good hands while we were gone. They were exhausted once we got home which just shows how much fun they had. We will definitely be using them for our future trips!”
“Thank you for being so flexible when the airlines put us in a bind! I love that he was loving on you as much as me when I picked him up! What a great sign of his enjoyment all week! Thank you!!”
“Ronnie did a great job with our dog! I could tell how much she and her family cared for him during his stay. Excellent communication while from her from booking through pickup, and was great to see pictures of him playing during his stay.”
“When we picked up Shadow from her stay, she came back to us exactly how we left her—happy, healthy, and full of energy. All her needs were taken care of, from mealtime and naps to plenty of playtime in the backyard, which made us feel really at ease knowing she was so well looked after.”
“Gena is the BEST! She took excellent care of our standard poodle, Lucy. Lucy such had a great time, I am not sure she missed us. Gena is a dog lover and has a great way with them. It is like she can talk to them! Very happy with Gena! She sent videos and pictures daily :).”
“Ashlea has watched Mackey twice and she is absolutely wonderful. He always comes home so happy! She’s extremely flexible and communicative and has helped me out of a few binds when I’m in need of last minute dog care. I appreciate her service!”
“Chris was great!! He had no problem showing us where Daisy would be staying, sent us updates and pictures. Daisy was very happy when she came home, with other sitters/kennels she would be sad for 2-3 days. Will definitely be using again!!”
“I can’t understate how much Theo loves staying with Leta and her wonderful family. He perks up every time we get to their home and jumps out of his skin when he sees her. Plenty of play time & stimulation with their fur babies, fun places to climb and explore, lots of love. He has stayed twice and I will always look to them first. Fully recommend!”
“I absolutely loved Aricel. She was extremely sweet and accommodating to my older pup. She was very loving and Bootz took to her well. He even got to sleep in the bed with her which he seemed to love. She sent pictures and updates daily which I greatly appreciated. I was so pleased I've already booked her for another stay.”
“Melissa was great! She gave frequent updates on our dogs while boarding with her. She is very fast to respond to questions. Would definitely book her again for our next trip!”
About: I am a proud owner of an 11-year-old yellow labrador retriever and a two-year-old cat named Cooper. Growing up my house was always full of animals, including multiple cats and multiple dogs at all times. I have 3 children who are all gentle with animals. My yellow lab is a diabetic so I am familiar with checking glucose and administering insulin. I am currently staying at home with the children and am free almost every day Monday-Friday. I am open to walking dogs, playing with the pets either at my house or yours. We do not have a real fence, as our dog is invisible fence trained. We do have large crates available, plenty of dog toys and treats if applicable to your pet. Our dog is very friendly and spoiled, as yours would be also! Your pet would be treated as a part of our family!
“Cameron and his sister did an absolutely fabulous job taking care of Toby! I was kept very updated with regular communication and pictures, and Toby felt like one of their family. Toby didn’t even want to come home! They were very caring and compassionate with his needs as an older dog and needing medicine, and were amazing. I highly recommend them to anyone needing a sitter, and will definitely use them again!”
“Kailly is amazing and we couldn’t have asked for someone more caring to watch our dog, Ripley, while we were out of town! Ripley is a rescue and we’ve only had her for a few months. After one bad experience leaving her, we were nervous to go away again. Kailly worked with us to make sure that Ripley felt comfortable, and understood that it may take a few days for her to warm up to being somewhere new. Needless to say, Ripley had a wonderful time away and we had complete peace of mind! Kailly is communicative, loves dogs, has a lovely fenced in yard and a clean home. We are already in talks about the next time she will dogsit for us.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Germantown
Bennie had an amazing time with Candie and Axel. It’s all he’s talked about since we picked him up. He talked about the walks, the wrestling, the cuddling, and so much more. He is just going on and on about them both. Bennie highly recommends Candie and Axel. He would have typed this himself except he, well you know…doesn’t have thumbs and kept dropping the phone. Candie has a great backyard and sent us lots of pics, which I really appreciate.
Our pup is incredibly high energy and pretty much has zero boundaries. Lauren and Zach love and embrace him just as he is! It is so nice being able to leave and knowing he will always be loved and cared for just like he would be at home. Always grateful for the care he receives with Lauren and Zach.
Kelsey has become our go-to sitter over the last couple years and I can’t recommend her enough! She is great with our dog Walter, sends daily photos, and is flexible when coordinating drop off/pick up. Truly can’t recommend her enough, Walter always comes home happy and well taken care of!
Jamie was great! She treated my dogs like they were own and let them sleep in the bed with her! They probably won’t want to come home because I don’t let them sleep with me. 😀 She sent pictures and updates to let me know they were doing fine which was so helpful and put me at ease. Her yard is fully fenced so they can roam freely.
Incredibly grateful for Chris and Laura. Their family welcomed our two dogs with open arms, having them at their house and going above and beyond to make them comfortable. They sent us regular checking and made us feel great that our dogs were safe and happy. Couldn’t recommend them more highly!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Germantown is $37 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $50 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of November 2026, there are 875 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Germantown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.
96% of sitters in Germantown 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 Germantown 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 Germantown.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Germantown. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Germantown 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 IN 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
