Huan took excellent care of my dog for the time he was with her. I received regular updates with photos and videos, which was very reassuring. My dog came back happy and relaxed—he clearly got lots of attention, great walks, and plenty of belly rubs. She’s kind, personable, and truly attentive. I highly recommend her for boarding and sitting.

I had a last-minute need for boarding our two senior pups and had a meet and greet with David. I was immediately at ease and knew our pups would be safe and well cared for. He understood their senior needs and gave them their medications, took them for very frequent potty breaks, and was understanding when there was an accident. He even handled Millie's diaper! I hope that he's available when we need to board Millie and Theo again!

FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE! Highly recommend! We chose Sriju, in part, based on other excellent reviews...and she did not disappoint! From our first communications and introductory meeting before we left our 11mo Goldendoodle with her, Sriju was welcoming, gentle, extremely responsive, organized, completely accommodating, and loving. This was our first time leaving Benny with someone else (we were away six days) so we were already a bit on edge; Sriju put us at ease immediately. Everyday while we were gone Sriju sent texts and pictures (usually once in AM and once in PM). She took Benny on numerous walks throughout the day as well as to the dog park. She adjusted to his needs, not the other way around, and provided an atmosphere that made Benny completely comfortable, as evidenced by his affection toward her when it was time to pick him up upon our return. We highly recommend Sriju and can't thank her enough for making our Benny feel at home while we were away...and giving us the peace of mind we needed to truly enjoy our trip. THANK YOU, Sriju!

We would have given more than 5-stars to Marco & Margaret and family if we could. Our dog, Uni, stayed over a weekend when we had to attend some events. Marco was very responsible helping with our dog's seasonal allergy medicines and providing updates with pictures, and videos. When we picked up Uni, we could tell he was happy, loved, and had a blast. And, we could tell that Uni and Marco's dog are BFFs now.

About: Hi! I'm Yesi, and I work from home full-time, which means visiting dogs receive plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I have two friendly pups, Max and Luna, who are a big part of the family. We understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your dog, and I strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where dogs can feel at home while you're away. Because I work remotely, your dog won't be left alone for long periods. Whether they enjoy playing, exploring the yard, going for walks, or simply relaxing on the couch, I'll do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I have the most experience with small and medium-sized dogs, but I am also open to larger breeds, as long as they are friendly, well-socialized, and a good fit for my home. The safety and comfort of all dogs in my care are my top priorities. I provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your dog is happy, safe, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! Typical Daily Schedule Because I work from home full-time, your dog will receive plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. Morning Potty break and breakfast Outdoor time and light exercise Midday Potty breaks, playtime, and companionship Walks or enrichment activities based on your dog's needs Evening Dinner, outdoor time, and family time Final potty break before bed I do my best to keep each dog's routine as consistent as possible during their stay. Safety & Environment Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. ✔️ Work-from-home supervision ✔️ Safe, clean, dog-friendly home ✔️ Friendly resident dogs, Max & Luna ✔️ Frequent potty breaks and outdoor time ✔️ Daily photo updates ✔️ Personalized care based on your dog's routine and personality Meet-and-greets are encouraged before the first booking to ensure everyone is comfortable and a good fit.

I had an excellent experience booking a 4 day stay with Varsha for my Cavalier- Chloe. Chloe is a shy dog who gets anxious in new places, and honestly does not like most dogs as they overwhelm her. However, she became a brand new dog at Varsha’s house. She was playing, having a great time, and became fond of Varsha, her family, and their dog. Varsha kept me updated on Chloe and sent lots of pictures, which helped me enjoy my trip. They made sure she ate all of her meals and monitored everything. Her dog Milo has such a calm, sweet demeanor and made for a great host. This ended up being a really good experience for Chloe and has actually made her more trusting and open to other people and dogs! I definitely recommend her. Can’t thank Varsha, her family, and Milo enough!

Gail and Kris are truly amazing. I'm so glad I found them. I had a wedding to attend in Europe and was so worried that I didn't have someone to care for my 15lb sweet little Schnauzer, Addie, for such a long stay (11 days!) My worry is that I wouldn't find someone I could trust that would never leave her alone. Yes, I never leave her alone. I've tried but have filmed her with cameras and she does a deep soulful howl that breaks my heart. Addie makes me laugh so much, she is so, so funny and I love this little one! I have truly anthropomorphized her and so I came to the realization that I would need help. Gail and Kris have taken care of her as if she was their own. I started leaving Addie with them for short stays to make certain all was well for both the caregivers and Addie. Addie loves them! They are so conscientious about feeding her exactly as I have instructed them to. They play and cuddle with her and give her lovely walks. They constantly lookout for her wellbeing and communicate to me with short videos and gorgeous photography every little thing Addie does...her eating, running, walking, sleeping, playing...it brings such joy to both me and my husband so see the tender care Addie is receiving. I trust Gail and Kris. They are just THE BEST!

Tori especially adored her daughter and became her little shadow the entire time. Tori had the best time—when I went to pick her up, she didn't even want to leave to go home!

Caden did an amazing job with our dog Pickles. He sent us pictures everyday we were gone so we could see how Pickles was doing. Pickles usually doesn’t eat well while we are gone so Caden was sure to message us about how things were going with Pickles eating and any ways he could get Pickles to eat his food. Leaving our baby with someone new was scary, but Caden made us feel assured Pickles was well cared for. Caden was quick to answer every question I had when setting up the care. Caden asked questions about taking care of our dog that I didn’t think of to make sure Pickles would have the best care possible. I was not worried about Pickles while we were gone he was well taken care of the entire time. I would highly recommend Caden to anyone.

FAQs for Boarding - Germantown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Germantown on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 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 7,763 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Germantown. About 91% of Germantown 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.
