“This was our second time leaving our furbabies with Gail and Kris, as we knew our doggos would be in good hands. Just like last time, G&K went above and beyond for our dogs’ wellbeing. They walked our dogs 4 times a day through a safe wooded area with lakes that our dogs really enjoyed exploring. It gave them plenty of physical and mental stimulation. G&K made sure to capture these precious moments in the most gorgeous pictures and videos that kept our hearts warm throughout our 2-week trip. As this was summertime, G&K also made sure our furbabies were kept nice and cool, including with ice cubes in their water bowls after walks as needed. G&K also taught them important skills and routines, which we really appreciate. They came home to us extra well-behaved and relaxed. And when we picked them up, they came home extra fresh and fluffy after a bath and blow dry from their favorite spare hoomans. 🥰 And when at one point our dogs refused to eat their regular food, G&K prepared healthy and yummy homemade meals for several days — after first checking with us, of course! It’s impossible to state in words how much dedication and diligence G&K do to keep our dogs safe, well-fed and happy.”
“Caden was great, buddy, my 9 year old border collie love him and I got updates regularly, he took great care on him and I will definitely be booking with him again. Highly recommend”
“Evvery deserves every star and more. She has gone above and beyond to make sure that my spoiled pup is well taken care of. She even gave me detailed reports in the morning and in the evening every day during my pups stay there. It was as if I was there. It was awesome. Along with the reports came adorable pictures! I’ve NEVER had this experience before. I truly appreciate everything she has done! Highly recommend and I hope she will allow my wombat back in her home! I know he will miss her truly.”
“Mindy came through big time when we were in a pinch. Our usual dog sitter canceled unexpectedly and we found and booked Mindy last minute. After a meet and greet we booked and Ace was in great hands. Thanks, Mindy!”
“Gisselle and family are amazing! She is very attentive and loving. We already have her booked for two more stays. From the moment we dropped him off, she was loving and relaxed, so we knew she was able to handle our little man with issues. It gave us peace of mind that he was safe and happy, so we can enjoy our time away.”
“I almost don’t want to share how amazing Jason and Rebecca are because we’d love to keep them to ourselves but they truly deserve the recognition. They go above and beyond. They sent thoughtful morning and afternoon updates about energy, eating, and interactions, which gave us so much peace of mind. They’re also very responsive and quick to reply to any questions. They took the time to slowly introduce our dogs to theirs, making sure everyone was comfortable. We picked them up happy, relaxed, and tired which is exactly what we hope for. They are kind, attentive, and truly care. They don’t just watch your pets, they care for them as if they were their own. They deserve every star and more. Highly recommend!”
“Lorenzo accepted my last minute request and my dog is in a good hand. Lorenzo took extra step to take care of my 16-year-old dog, who is sometimes poop inside when goes to a new environment. Lorenzo also communicated with videos and pictures on daily basis, to let us know how our dog is doing. Thank you! Lorenzo.”
“Katherine was super responsive and super sweet to my pup, Kobe. She also sent tons of updates and made Kobe feel right at home. I would 100% recommend Katherine!”
“Tanya and her whole family were absolutely wonderful with our dog, Pippa! She felt right at home from the moment she arrived, and they provided the best care possible. We loved receiving the photo updates Tanya sent—it was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Pippa was while we were away. Thank you, Tanya, for creating such a kind and loving environment for our pup. We were able to truly relax and enjoy our trip knowing that Pippa was safe, happy, and so well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“Raghavi and her family were great. From the start, they made sure to get to know Archie and understand his needs, and Archie was very comfortable with the family as well as their dog, Simba. If you’re looking for a sitter who will love and care your pet like their own, I highly recommend Raghavi!”
“Marylee and her husband were so amazing with our Iris. They indulged her with healthy foods when she was too fussy to eat her own food, give her lots of cuddles and love, and let her run off her excess energy in their huge fenced-in yard. They also sent me frequent pictures and updates. They are loving and patient and I would highly recommend them. We will definitely be using them again, I hope!”
“We did a meet and great with Ivan and my dog felt comfortable with him. He does have a dog and I was excited for my pup to have a playmate during her visit. He was flexible with the drop off and pick up. His home was safe for a dog and he has a fenced in back yard. He sent pictures of my pup in various places in his home, yard and on a walk.”
“Kallie didn't want to come home! She was pampered beyond a doggie spa vacation. Tracey, Kevin, and family took amazing care of our sweet puppy. I highly recommend them for attentive and loving care of your dog. They were so amazing that we already requested two more future bookings.”
“Zeke had a great time at Samantha’s. She gave us constant updates. She took special care of Zeke as he has some hip issues. I glad I found her and would definitely use her services in the future.”
“So glad we found Nithya! She was available on short notice, super responsive, and very accommodating. Maestro was exhausted when he got home so he must have had lots of fun with Nithya and her other pups 😊.”
“Chash, we can’t thank you enough for the attention and care you gave our pup this week! Tons of walks, play time and cuddles.. we couldn’t ask for anything more! We would HIGHLY recommend Chash to anyone that wants their fur baby to be well loved. We so appreciated all the daily updates and photos. And even sending our pup home with some sweet new treats, so thoughtful! Our dog Birdie can’t wait to stay with Chash again 💕”
“Karen was amazing with Jazzy! Our dog has significant separation anxiety, but Karen immediately understood her needs and knew exactly how to help her feel comfortable and secure. The farmland is a huge plus offering plenty of safe, private space for dogs to play and explore. Best of all, Karen and her family treated Jazzy like one of their own. We had complete peace of mind knowing our fur baby was so well cared for, and we're incredibly grateful to have found a sitter we trust. The ample pictures and videos were an added bonus! We'll definitely be back again and again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Germantown
Evvery took such great care of our dog Freya. I could tell through pictures and videos that Freya settled in comfortably. Evvery sent updates and pictures each day. I’m so happy Freya had a home away from home while my family was traveling. Knowing your pet is well taken care of is such a relief.
Buddy has stayed with Caden twice now, and both experiences have been fantastic. The fact that I’ve trusted him with Buddy more than once says everything. Caden is reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about the dogs he looks after. Throughout each stay, he kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind. Buddy always comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, and it’s obvious he gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while he’s there. It’s hard to find someone you can trust with your pet, but Caden has earned that trust. If you’re looking for a Rover sitter who is responsible, kind, and treats your dog like family, I highly recommend booking with him. I’ll definitely continue using him whenever Buddy needs a place to stay.
Carol is wonderful! She treated our little girl like her own. She sent pictures and updates every day. We requested help at short notice, and she booked our meet and greet in time, too. Millie was so happy when she got home! We could tell she had the best time. We will be contacting her again! Highly recommend Carol!
Lorenzo accepted my last minute request and my dog is in a good hand. Lorenzo took extra step to take care of my 16-year-old dog, who is sometimes poop inside when goes to a new environment. Lorenzo also communicated with videos and pictures on daily basis, to let us know how our dog is doing. Thank you! Lorenzo.
Sophia is a phenomenal sitter. Rosie has been going to Sophia for a few years. Rosie does not allow anyone to walk her except family but loves going to Sophia. She is well cared for, walked regularly even though Sophia has a large backyard and always seems like she’s having the best time. Sophia is flexible when situations arise out of your control. We feel lucky to have found someone so caring.
Chash, we can’t thank you enough for the attention and care you gave our pup this week! Tons of walks, play time and cuddles.. we couldn’t ask for anything more! We would HIGHLY recommend Chash to anyone that wants their fur baby to be well loved. We so appreciated all the daily updates and photos. And even sending our pup home with some sweet new treats, so thoughtful! Our dog Birdie can’t wait to stay with Chash again 💕
Gisselle and family are amazing! She is very attentive and loving. We already have her booked for two more stays. From the moment we dropped him off, she was loving and relaxed, so we knew she was able to handle our little man with issues. It gave us peace of mind that he was safe and happy, so we can enjoy our time away.
Rosie was wonderful and helped me out with a very last minute booking. She took amazing care of Chewie! She kept me updated daily with texts about how Chewie was doing as well as pictures. If anyone needs a pup sitter she is the one to go to. Definitely highly recommend! Thank you so much for taking care of my pup!
Raghavi and her family were AMAZING!!! It was my first time booking a pet sitter, so I didn't really know what to expect, but I got so lucky! Raghavi let me do a little meet-and-greet before I even booked to make sure that Ryder was comfortable with her dog, which put me so at ease, and during the boarding itself, was so accommodating with Ryder's schedule (and went above and beyond by sending me lots of photos while I was away, which was such an unexpected but very nice and much appreciated surprise!) She was so easy to get in touch with, and when I needed an emergency extra couple of days covered, she was so flexible and easygoing about it. Definitely booking again!!! :)
Yuhui and her family watched our dog and cat for our 10 day trip. This was our cat’s first time having a sitter and our dog’s first time being comfortable in a new home within minutes of us leaving which was a reassuring sign. Pictures and updates were sent throughout the trip. Our pets really enjoyed their time there with our dog going back for one last hug for Yuhui before we left the pick up. Would def recommend and will be using again!
Mary was absolutely fantastic with my dog. Reliable, communicative, professional, and clearly someone who genuinely cares about animals. I got regular updates, photos, and total peace of mind knowing my pup was in great hands. My dog came back happy, relaxed, and probably wondering why I can’t provide five-star service and belly rubs full time. Highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring Rover walker!
Khushboo took wonderful care of Kylo during his week-long stay. She kept me updated daily with messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Kylo looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for the entire time. It’s clear she paid close attention to his needs and made sure he stayed healthy and comfortable. I’d absolutely trust her with him again!
PA was so wonderful! We have a special needs dog who takes lots of medicine and loves to snuggle up close with people. PA and crew were loving, responsive, and nurturing to our pup during his stay. Not only that, but her follow up when we had some questions post stay was next level. We will 100% be using PA again, can’t wait for Elmer to go back and play!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Germantown
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Germantown on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 7,635 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Germantown. 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.
94% of Germantown 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 Germantown 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 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.
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 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.
