“Lillian is amazing! She took great care of my two small pups. I was nervous leaving them as they are small (3 and 7lbs) but our meet up went well and I loved her reviews and I see why!! Lillian didn’t just “watch” my dogs but she cared for them as if they were her own. She provided lots of photos and feedback while I was away. She was flexible when I became ill after travel and I was able to extend my pups stay without worry. I am really pleased with how my pups were treated, it means the world to me because they are literally my kids. I would absolutely use Lilian again!! Thank you a million times over!”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Marco and Polo! From the moment we dropped them off, we felt completely comfortable knowing they were in caring and loving hands. She kept us updated, treated them like family, and clearly paid attention to their individual personalities and needs. Marco and Polo came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for — which says everything. Sarah went above and beyond, and her kindness and professionalism truly stood out. It’s hard to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, but Sarah made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and attentive sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you again, Sarah, for taking such wonderful care of our boys!”
“LaTasha provided such great care to Deuce. The videos and pictures sent each day helped me in knowing that he was having fun and in a safe place. I will absolutely use her services again.”
“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”
“We met with Erwin to do a meet and greet with Jameson. Immediately felt comfortable with the home and backyard they provide for the dogs. Both him and his spouse put us at ease knowing that Jameson would be in good hands. We had to cancel due to a scheduling conflict on our end but will definitely be using his services in the future!”
“Dasia was fantastic again! It’s so great to find someone you feel comfortable to watch your pet. Dasia provided updates and pictures throughout the stay. She was amazing.”
“Leaving my fur babies with Dana was the best experience for my fur babies and myself. Dana sent us videos every morning and was extremely accommodating. I will definitely be booking again with Dana.”
“A Home Away From Home for Milo! Tanita and Terrence’s care for your fur baby is truly unmatched! Milo had such a wonderful time at their doggy day care. I received regular updates and adorable pictures showing just how happy and comfortable he was. It wasn’t just what they told me — I could see the joy in every photo. When I picked Milo up, he was so content that he fell asleep before we even pulled out of the driveway — a true sign of a day well spent! This experience was a complete success, and I couldn’t be happier with the love and attention he received. Highly recommended! We’ll definitely be back — this is absolutely Milo’s home away from home. 🐾❤️”
“Gucci had a great time as always and the daily updates including pictures is an exceptional value added to his stay and my comfort with his 2nd home 😁. He is taken great care of and I am worry free the entire time.”
“If you love your dog, you want this family to pet board/sit while you’re away. Phenomenal to work with. They love animals and it shows with the care they take. I am very particular about what sort of people are allowed to watch my dog (commutative, social, can follow the walking scheduling etc) and they passed with flying colors.”
“Shadow had thee best time staying with Seyla! I was able to really enjoy my trip knowing my dog was in great hands and being kept abreast of the walks and feedings definitely gave me peace of mind. Shadow got to socialize with other dogs and got plenty of daily exercise! Because he was walked in the woods and forest, he did bring home about 5 or 6 ticks but I will get him on a preventative in hopes that it will help for future visits with Seyla. As a fellow dog sitter/walker myself, I highly recommend Seyla and will definitely be booking with him again in the future!!!”
“Matthew with family is very accommodating and will entertain your dog for a great price! They went swimming and on long walks. Executed Ozzie’s food plan and supplements no problem. They sleep in the bed with their dogs which my dog liked. I’ll be a return customer if they’ll have us.”
“Excellent, loving care was provided. I greatly appreciated his regular updates via pictures and videos. Fritz always looked content or he was having the best time playing with his new doggy friends. We will most definitely be using Emmanuel again!”
“Mac was in great hands, once again! Everytime I leave Mac with Gio and Vanessa, I know he will be well taken care of. Their knowledge and understanding of pets is what keeps me coming back. There is no other sitter, I've met in 15 years, better than this dynamic duo. Thanks for providing Mac with another awesome stay!!”
“McKinely had a great time with Tammey! She was very flexible and coordinated pick-ups/drop-offs with our friends. Since we were traveling internationally sent photos and updates via email throughout his stay. We will use Tammey in the future and highly recommend!”
“My 1st time using Rover. I chose Beauty for her multiple 5 star reviews and the fact that she lived in the same city. Beauty took amazing care of our Kenge; who is not very good with strangers. It was his first time away and ours away from him. The photos and videos sent helped ease any anxieties that we had. He looked so loved and at ease. I would highly recommend Beauty for Rover services.”
“Tara is amazing!! She and her family were so loving and attentive to our Diesel! Tara took great care in making sure Diesel was comfortable and safe with her dog and another dog in her care. Her home was clean and well organized, and her sweet family was icing on the cake. The love of this family shined through in everything from their warm welcome at the meet and greet to the consistent updates and pics sent throughout the stay. I highly recommend Tara and I am sure Diesel can't wait to stay again!”

If I could give Tanya more than five stars, I would. She was responsive from the very first inquiry and kept me updated throughout my dog’s stay. She suggested a meet and greet before I did, which was reassuring. She treated my sweet girl like she was her own. If you are looking for a sitter who will be attentive, responsive and kind, I suggest Tanya!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in La Plata 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 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 July 2026, there are 5,608 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.
