My two French bulldogs made themselves right at home with Piero and his family. They treated my doggos with great care and attention. It was also a huge plus that someone was always home with my girls. Piero was great with sending pictures and keeping me updated. It was super easy and I will be using him again to watch my dogs. 100 percent recommend - a wonderful sitter!

This is the second time I've used Nithya for my dog Millie. I was a little nervous the first time because Millie is only about 20 pounds, and Koda is a big Husky, but, true to Nithya's profile, Koda is very well behaved. Now there is also Snowy who is also very friendly. I think Millie and Snowy had fun together, and Koda made sure they were behaving themselves. Nithya was great at keeping me informed about how Millie was doing. Millie is a snuggler, and, thankfully Nithya let her snuggle as much as she wanted. I am grateful to have found Nithya (and Koda and now Snowy).

Jared was our lifesaver! After some bad luck, we were fortunate that Jared was able to take care of our Bruno pup while we were out of town. We had lots of updates each day and pictures. Bruno took to Jared immediately and we can’t wait for him to visit with Jared again. Thank you sooooo much!!

both of our dogs seemed well cared for. His property has plenty of space for the dogs to run and he took them for walks in the woods, which I’m sure they enjoyed. I would consider boarding our dogs with him again.

We had a great experience with Lorenzo watching our dog, Pele, for two weeks. He was very communicative throughout the entire stay and regularly sent picture updates, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. Pele was well cared for and happy when we got back. We really appreciated the reliability and attention he gave our dog. Highly recommend!

I can’t say enough good things about Dawn! She took such amazing care of my dog while I was away. From the updates with videos and photos she sent, I could tell my dog felt completely comfortable and loved. She was attentive, responsible, and truly treated my pup like her own. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog — which says everything. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind!

Merline took great care of Sarge and provided daily updates. She gave him yummy treats and gave him extra people food to go along with his regular dog food. When Sarge didn’t want to go upstairs to sleep at night, she joined him downstairs so he wouldn’t be alone. Her family also looked after Sarge and showered him with love. When I picked up Sarge, he was very calm and relaxed, which tells me that he had a good time while away from his family.

Bella’s boarding experience with Mindy was great. I received videos / updates almost daily. Bella was very well taken care of. She enjoyed playing with the other dog, roaming around their big back yard, and going on walks. We will definitely board with Mindy again.

Shen-Huan was incredible in taking care of our cat for straight 3 weeks. My cat needed medicine twice everyday and it wasn't the easiest thing to prepare but she took really good care of him and made sure to share pictures with us daily. I so appreciate her being so caring and communicative. I would absolutely be a return customer in the future.

Carol was absolutely wonderful. We made a last-minute booking after the sitter we had fell through. We didn’t meet and greet with Carol and met with her and her wonderful daughters. Carol took great care of our dog Bella. She sent us pictures and communicated with us regarding how she was doing. I will definitely be booking Carol again in the future.

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.

Yuhui is absolute 5-star boarder! Extremely reliable and communicative, we received daily updates with pictures, videos, and texts while we were away for 7 days. Yuhui gave our Ashes a senior cat all the head scratches she craved and patiently brought our shy cat Alley out of her shell. We picked up two happy kitties. Highly recommend!

Anisa has watched my pup several times, and it’s been great every time! My dog can be skittish with new folks, especially because she’s deaf. Anisa worked with her and her quirks, and my dog loves staying with her! I never worry about Serena when she’s with Anisa. She sends regular updates and photos and worked with some of my schedule changes. Your furry friends are in great hands with Anisa!

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 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 7,771 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.
