“Joe was great and we would be happy to leave Dakota in his care again. He was super flexible and provided daily updates which were really appreciated. Dakota made some dog friends and seemed to enjoy his lengthy visit. Joe lives near a wooded area so it was nice for Dakota to be a little bit out of the chaos of the city.”

“Kayla and Adam were wonderful hosts for our little Bonnie! This was Bonnie’s first time staying anywhere without us, but Kayla and Adam obviously love dogs and were simply great with her. Kayla sent reports with pictures several times a day, putting our minds at ease. And the fact that our dog, a very nervous and picky eater, was relaxed enough to eat on her first day told us very clearly that she was doing fine and felt at home with Kayla and her family. Thank you Kayla and Adam - we’ll be back!!”

“Found Melonie on Rover and first met her back in January for a meet and greet before a trip I had been planning. That trip ended up not happening, so this was actually our first time using her services. The original meet-up went so well. My dog Sky isn't very socialized and tends to be anxious around new people and places, so how quickly she took to Melonie was a great sign. This was also the first time we'd left Sky with anyone outside of family, so that mattered a lot to us. Since some time had passed, Melonie graciously offered to do another meet and greet before this booking. Sky warmed up to her right away again. This time I brought my daughter along, and she felt just as confident in Melonie as I did. We both knew Sky was in good hands. Melonie has such a calm, pleasant presence, and it clearly puts Sky at ease. She sent us daily updates with pictures throughout the stay, and Sky looked happy and relaxed in every one. We'll absolutely be booking with Melonie again in the future!”

“Zulma took such great care of my two Shitzus Louie & Zoey. I got regular photo/video updates which I really appreciated. She asked for permission, which I gave, to bathe them, they were most likely smelly due to the weather. Can I tell you when we picked them up they were so silky, shiney and soft! Even more so than when they come from the groomers. I really must ask her what is the product she used! We will most definitely book her again!”

Jade is very warm and inviting. We agreed on a 2 hr. meet and greet visit for our pet to be with her, given her separation anxiety and not being with her regular sitter. Jade reported our pet whining for the first hour being with her. When I asked Jade if she would be open to a future visit in hopes of my pet becoming lass anxious. She was immediate in saying yes.

Again India was super great. India kept communicating during Kuhlua’s stay and sent pictures. India made sure Kahlua was comfortable and even though I’m going through a move that has her stressed India made sure she ate and updated me a little after midnight and that shows she really cares. I will never use another sitter as long as India and her sons are around because she is the only sitter my baby has been this comfortable with and she loves India’s spunky baby Prince. I want to thank India for all the great care and we will see you again in less than 2 weeks.

Melissa was simply an exceptional Dog Sitter! She took care of our three big dogs in such a sweet personal way as if they were her own children! Ours are big dogs and they are super good natured, but they can be a handful and Melissa did not skip a beat with them and offered up her whole house as their own. They loved her and she even took care of one of them who ended up needing special attention because of a hotspot he had developed. Melissa was on it, caring for him and making sure it did not get worse before we arrived. We absolutely give her the highest recommendation possible! Thank you, Melissa!

We were incredibly grateful for Shelby's responsiveness and flexibility during a truly last-minute situation. She stepped in without hesitation to board our dog, kept us fully updated with regular photos and thoughtful notes, and made sure we always knew how Oslo was settling in. When our flights were unexpectedly delayed she went above and beyond by extending the boarding free of charge..an act of generosity that meant the world to us. Her professionalism, compassion and genuine care for our dog Oslo made a stressful travel situation so much easier. We couldn't recommend Shelby more highly and will absolutely book with her again.

We had a wonderful experience with Rasida! She was reliable, responsible, and incredibly caring throughout the entire time she watched our dog. She was very communicative, flexible, and willing to accommodate our needs, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dog and treated her with the same love and attention she would give her own. We truly appreciated how dependable and easy to work with Rasida was. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy,and caring dog sitter. We’d happily have her watch our dog again!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Hillcrest Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Hillcrest Heights 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 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 September 2026, there are 7,543 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hillcrest Heights. 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 Hillcrest Heights 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 Hillcrest Heights 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 Hillcrest Heights 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 Hillcrest Heights.

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 Hillcrest Heights 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.
