“I love love LOVE having CiCi care for my fur baby Charli! She stayed four nights without her baby shadow, my other spoiled pooch, and she enjoyed outdoor play, made new friends, and even got a manicure and pedicure! I always feel confident leaving my dogs in her care because she cares for them as if they are her own. I recommended her recently to my neighbor for her puppy and she is also pleased with the care she received. We will continue to use her for our extended stay needs for sure!”
“We really appreciate your assistance during our family emergency. It is great to know your dog is safe and well cared for. Megan comes highly recommended. Thanks again. Jerome & Family”

“Ms. Lillian was great…! She sent updates on how my babygirl was adjusting/doing throughout our separation. She’ll be Coco’s sitter for now on! I’ll be recommending her to whom ever I come across that needs a CARING sitter…! Thx again Ms. Lillian”
“I’m so thankful to have found Anna! She’s local, accommodating, and Maisie had a wonderful time! Communication was easy, pickup/drop off were quick, and I have a happy, tired pup at home now! Our trip was a quick one, but I’ll book Anna for longer trips in the future!”
“Erin and Christina were awesome as always. Our furry baby Boris loves to spend time with his extended family. They are the best dog boarders in the business. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“This was our first time using Tanita & Terrence's boarding services for our Coco. Our trip was last minute and they were so accommodating. Coco had an AMAZING time and they treated her just like a member of their family! We were kept updated with messages and pictures throughout her stay. We have found another great family to trust our girl with! Thank you both for taking great care of my schloopy! 🩷🐾”
“Aaron and Tia are hands down the best ever. They are super friendly loves dogs and I can’t even thank them enough how they have helped me in last minute dog sitting but just the care they show with my dog.

“Robyn came through when I needed it! Very personable, professional and accommodating! Looking forward to establishing a long lived boarding a relationship for the very near future! ;-)”
“Highly recommend!! Extremely thorough and went above and beyond prior to our pup’s stay to ensure he would be comfortable in the new environment while we were out of town. Great communication as well which is ALWAYS a plus for us while we are traveling to include daily updates, and pictures. Could tell our pup had a blast and we will definitely be back again.”
“My family and I travel separately because we had not found the right sitter for our babies. We will never look any further, because Lindsey and her family treated my babies as if they were theirs. How do I know? They were full of smiles each time she sent us a picture of them, while we were away. We are now planning trips for the future, because Devin & Louie have another place to call home when we are away. Thank you so much. We look forward to future visits!”
“Does a great job giving updates when asked. Got some great pics. Treated Ilona like she was part of the family. They bonded with her so much they were sad to see her leave.”
“Brian and Carly are the BEST of the BEST! They are kind, competent, and genuine dog lovers. This trip was the longest I have been away from my beagle and I felt like she was with trusted friends. I didn’t have a single concern that she was getting anything but top notch care and love. Great communication and multiple daily photos! Brian and Carly worked through a last minute schedule change with me, and I am grateful for their flexibility. I absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for top quality care for their dog!”
“Rae took good care of Jax. She took him in after a very last minute request from me to board for a weekend and was communicative. Would recommend her for anyone needing dog care boarding.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in La Plata on Rover is $55.5 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 5,578 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across La Plata. 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.
95% of La Plata 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 La Plata 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 La Plata 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 La Plata.
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 La Plata 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.
