“Another excellent experience with Steven! Our large dog stayed the week and came home happy, well exercised, and clean. We appreciate the updates and are always happy with our dog’s stay!”
“Virginia and Steven were outstanding. We boarded our dog with them for a weekend and they were incredibly kind and accommodating when our flight got cancelled and she had to stay an extra night with them, and they didn’t bat an eye at giving her eye drops even though she doesn’t make it easy. Our dog seemed extremely well cared for when she came home. Would definitely rebook!”
“we knew ms virginia and her fur babies was a winner at the meet & greet. ore was so excited when my husband pulled up to the house. i’ll definitely use her again and definitely a recommend. ms virginia, thank you for your availability on Mother’s Day, taking such good care of ore, and keeping her safe! your flexibility is appreciated beyond measure. until our paths cross again….”
“Ruth and her family did such a wonderful job caring for our dog, Pee Wee. Her communication was excellent. She sent many photos at different times throughout the day. Ruth took Pee Wee on the best walks and always a different route to give him a change of scenery. Her family played with Pee Wee throughout the day, and kept him covered up sweetly at night.”
“Fantastic!! Shannon watched my one year old very anxious puppy, Luna. I was very nervous Luna wouldn’t settle, but Shannon took the time to allow Luna to open up to her. Within 30 minutes of dropping Luna off I had picture updates and text updates! She continued with many pictures and messages to keep me in the loop of how Lunas day was going. Shannon was so sweet and kind, relieving any nerves I had. She was able to work with my nervous pup and keep her happy! I was so grateful for Shannon’s patience and expert care. She also administered eye drops to my pup who has some eye problems. I felt completely at easy knowing Shannon was diligently watching over my pup. I plan to use Shannon again and again anytime I’m out of time!”
“Our two year old mini schnauzer has stayed with Ken and Felice (and the boys) many times now since he was a young pup for as short as day care or one night to two weeks this time. He loves going there and is excited to see the family each and every time. They are very good about keeping us updated on his stay and is extremely well cared for at their home. Felice and family are the best!!!!!”
“Erin was totally a pleasure and kind person to work with. From scheduling a meet and greet with our Maxx a few weeks before to sending updates with pictures. We never once had to worry about my our baby Maxx while chilling on the beaches in Cancun, Mexico.”
“Olga is absolutely marvelous very patient and so kind We are so lucky to have found her for Romeo She is a great nanny we recommend her very warmly Romeo had a wonderful Thanksgiving thanks to her - and we too! He is thrilled to meet Olga again Thanks you Olga for your seriousness and kindness”
“Ariel was great with Milo and kept me updated since I’m nervous with leaving my fur baby for long periods of time. But she assured me Milo was ok and sent me cute pictures. Milo and I will definitely use her again!”
“Diana took the best care of Rupert! I felt so at ease when he was in her care. She was fantastic at communicating and shared several pictures of our boy while he stayed with her. He seemed right at home.”
“Jill took wonderful care of my two dogs (one with special needs) while we were on vacation. They had lots of walks and playtime and came home happy and tired. Jill was great with communication and sent daily updates with pictures.”
“As usual, Nicole was absolutely incredible! Taz stayed with her overnight and from the pictures she sent you would think he was at a fun doggy daycamp, all smiles in every shot. He loves spending time with Nicole and her family and I could tell how comfortable and happy he was. I’m so thankful for their attentive care. On top of that, I reached out last minute and she didn’t hesitate, she even came to pick him up. Her service is truly impeccable and I’m beyond grateful to have someone I can trust with my son.”
“Casey is usually too nervous to eat when at a new persons house, but she was comfortable enough to eat at Marina's. That's a huge testament to Marina :)”
“My furball enjoyed his stay with Fallon. He got to meet Fallon’s dog Luna (became besties!), learned how to behave while being brushed, had a blast running around in her large backyard. Daily updates with photos while I was traveling for 6 days gave a peace of mind. Highly highly recommend!”
“Amazing! So accommodating and kind as I kept changing the drop off and pick up times due to driving from New York. Got great pictures and my pup was so happy when I picked her up! 10/10 would recommend again!”
“Junie comes back happy and healthy! We received lots of great pictures of her walks and hangout time with dog friends. Julia is quick to respond to messages and knows a lot about dog behavior.”
“This was my pups first time being with a sitter and he was very much in good hands. I got the impression he didn’t want to leave. Robin sent pictures and videos throughout his stay. She also accommodated my request for an extra night, which I throughly appreciated.”
“Brittanie & Ryan were amazing! I had never used this service before and was a bit nervous. They were great and explained how it worked, and I met them before booking to make sure it was a good fit for all of us. It really was!! I could tell they took care of my dog as well as their own. They sent pictures throughout the week and texted back right away with any questions that I had. I can’t thank them enough and would definitely recommend them 100%! What a wonderful family and they loved Lucky and he was so happy with them and their family.”
“They were very professional in knowledge of introducing my girl to their family and pets. Very loving home and pet oriented family. Sophie loved being with all your family. P.S. - A little scared she night wanna stay with you and not come home. LOL!”

We recently had our dog board with Dimitri for about 5 days. This was our first time with Dimitri and we were very happy. We felt confident that he could manage our dog, who is on the larger side (60 lbs), very strong, and prey driven. He was very responsive to my texts and sent me lots of pictures. He even gave our dog a bath, when he found a tick on another dog in his care. We would definitely board with him again!
Cheryl was awesome! She welcomed my fur baby into her home and treated him like her own. She provided updates, pictures, and videos. And as a bonus my fur baby got to hang out with her beautiful daughter. I could not ask for a more "genuinely" compassionate, and loving family to leave my boy with. I would completely use her again. Thank you so much Cheryl!!!
Great petsitter!!! My dogs were so happy being there and coming back home. Nautica kept my daughter and I updated daily with videos and pics of their journeys. One of dogs has anxiety problems and she made sure he was comfortable. Nautica followed our feeding directions and walking schedules. My dogs did not have any accidents while in her care.
I really appreciate Shakiyla. I contacted her in short notice due to my daughter being in the ER and not being able to find anyone to watch Reign. She responded immediately and was great with my dog. I was very nervous using this app for the first time, but She sent videos and kept me posted about how Reign was doing. She was a life saver. Thank you so much.
Erika - thank you for being such a wonderful caretaker for Tarot, since her first day meeting you she has been comfortable. Your ability to watch her consistently has been a big relief for her and myself, she is always so happy to see you time and time again. I truly appreciate you being so flexible and creating some consistency during my travels. -Brandon
I’m so grateful that I found Kassandra to board my dog, Benji! The consistent updates and photos provided throughout, gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Kassandra and her adorable son will love your dog like their own to make the absence easier on your pup. Oh, and benji got spoiled with that amazing fenced in yard! 10/10 recommend.
P1 definitely had a great time, and we really appreciate the care you gave him. One small thing we noticed afterward was that all the food we prepared was gone, which ended up being a bit more than his usual amount. He had a couple more bowel movements than normal, so we think he may have been slightly overfed. Just wanted to mention this for future reference. Thank you again!
2nd time watching Mika! Brittney is so easy to work with and kept my puppy safe over night on a holiday! Mika boarded at her home and had a great time playing with their puppy. Brittney is super easy to communicate with and very responsive to my texts or calls. I'm looking fwd to having her watch my girl again for sure!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Gwynn Oak on Rover is $42.8 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 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 August 2026, there are 3,263 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Gwynn Oak. 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.
92% of Gwynn Oak 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 Gwynn Oak 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 Gwynn Oak 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 Gwynn Oak.
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 Gwynn Oak 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.
