Chose Gena as my first Rover stay ever and was not disappointed! Gena kept me updated my entire trip away and took great care of our puppy. It was great that our puppy had a friend to play with the entire time and free roam of the home as well. Will definitely be staying with Gena again!

About: Hi! I’m a total dog lover with a lifetime of experience and a heart that melts for wagging tails 🐶💛 I mostly work full time from home, occasionally going into the office on Wednesdays. I’m flexible for walks and potty breaks at almost any point throughout the day. I have my own dog, so being back home for him has been part of my schedule for almost 9 years now. I like giving them as much freedom as they want, but will cater to any dogs specific needs. I am always sure to give food, water, and meds in a timely manner, as well as playtime and walks. My motto is always “dogs come first”, so I’ll make sure they’re happy, healthy, and well cared for no matter the cost.

I just wanted to say a big thank you for taking such great care of my sweet Kenzie this weekend 🐾💕. You were amazing—always keeping me updated, sending the cutest pictures, and being so gentle and patient with her, especially with her being blind. It really meant a lot to me to know she was safe, loved, and in such good hands. I also appreciate you letting me know about the little accident in her kennel 💦—you were so honest and attentive, and that shows just how much you care. You’re truly such a kind and loving person, and it shows in the way you treated Kenzie. I will definitely be using you again in the future! 🥰🐶 Thank you again!

Tracey and her family took care of my dog ​​with so much love and attention! We started with a Day Care trial, followed by a weekend stay, and now a longer period. I felt completely relaxed while we were traveling because Tracey knows how to take care of animals. She sent photos and kept us informed about Harry's routine. Harry loves to cuddle and I feel like he ​​has found a family that keeps him happy while we are away. I recommend her without hesitation!

About: I've had pets since I was a kid. I had my cat when I was 5, but she died late last year, and I want to fill that void. I'm available on weekdays at any time during the day. Same with Saturday and Sunday. I'm available for appointments 6am-10pm no problem. My home is free of smoke I don't smoke or anything like that and also, I have no kids so it's very pet friendly

Carol was an excellent host to my dog Coco. Coco seemed to have a lot of fun playing with her and didn't miss me at all. Carol regularly sent me pics and videos of coco playing which was very assuring. I would definitely go back to her and also recommend her to my friends in case they need someone to take care of their dogs. Thanks Carol once again for taking such good care of Coco :)

Melissa was absolutely amazing with our Goldendoodle, Jasper. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely loves dogs, and that showed in every part of Jasper’s stay. She and her family treated Jasper with so much love, care, and attention that he truly felt like part of their family. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that Jasper was happy, comfortable, and having a great time. When we picked him up, he looked so relaxed and happy. it honestly seemed like he wanted to stay there with them. That says everything about the kind of care Melissa provides. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend Melissa to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of our boy, Jasper.

Monika was FANTASTIC and took excellent care of my little guy. She went above and beyond by giving him a light wash around his face, due to his long hair getting slightly messy when he eats. She gave me regular updates and adorable photos of Biscuit during his stay with her and her family. He seemed very happy and upbeat when he first met her, and seemed to bond with her very quickly. I appreciated her making time to let me bring him over for an initial meet and greet, so he could get familiar with his temporary home away from. She was incredibly kind, friendly, knowledgable and had excellent response time. I will absolutely book with her again!

Exceeded my expectations as a dog sitter! They were professional, caring, and communicated with me regularly while I was away. They sent updates and pictures, which really put my mind at ease. My dog bonded with them quickly, and it was clear they were in good hands. I came back to a happy and relaxed pup, which speaks volumes about the quality of care provided. I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!

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!

This is our second time boarding with Alejandra, and she is wonderful. She is very accommodating, friendly, and caring. She took great care of our French bulldog. While we were away, I could trust that my dog was safe, happy, and looked after. I appreciated the photos that Alejandra sent, and my 2 year old was excited to see what our dog was up to on her "puppy vacation". I am so happy I found Alejandra so that we can have peace of mind while we are away. Will definitely be back again next time we need boarding!

Gisselle took such great care of our puppy, Moo, while we were away for a week. She kept us updated throughout our vacation with adorable pictures and let us know how Moo was doing each day. Even when Moo had a few accidents, Gisselle made us feel completely at ease and reassured us that she was in good hands. We’re so grateful for the love and care she gave Moo and couldn’t be happier with the experience. We would absolutely recommend Gisselle to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their fur baby!

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.

This was Leo’s first time staying with someone who wasn’t family and we couldn’t have been luckier to find Shen-Huan! Our fur baby can be a little needy and ended up requiring way more than we expected, but she handled everything like a champ. She kept us updated, took amazing care of him and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

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!!! :)

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!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Germantown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet 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 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 7,831 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.
