“This was our second time having Tanita and Terrence care for our fur baby. It's a good feeling when you are pleased with the care and service Tanita and Terrence provide, but when our fur baby expresses excitement before they opened the door I knew he was in good hands. Will use their services again”
“Absolute lifesaver!! She is extremely understanding and accommodating with our flights leaving REALLY early and landing REALLY late, and we couldn’t be more appreciative. Our 4 year old pup is (normally) super attached to us and tends to escape from the places we bring him to. After the meet and greet, we knew he’d be in good hands. He was so happy to be there and I’m sure loved every moment of it. Despite the fact he has his stubborn tendencies, I believe they enjoyed their time with him. The pics we received were great and helped us know he was good. We would absolutely love to have her watch our pup again x 100000. ? Thank youuuu !!”
“I had a last min emergency and Rebecca was great for helping me. She sent me a picture everyday that she had my baby. Everything seems to have gone fine. I appreciate her willingness to work with me last min and to help.”
“I booked Megan for a long term boarding for my pup while I was away for a few months. She treated him as if he were one of her own. He looked so happy in all of the photos and videos she sent. She’s an amazing sitter, very responsive and provides constant updates 😊”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our pup Coco! Taylor took such great care of Coco, especially knowing she experiences separation anxiety. They made her feel right at home, gave her lots of love and attention, and kept us updated throughout her stay with pictures and videos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I highly recommend Taylor and would absolutely book with her again! 🐾❤️”
“Stephanie was very responsive and receptive to a meet and greet before booking. I was nervous, as our dog was still recovering from surgery, but at the meet and greet, Stephanie made me feel very comfortable and was very accommodating to Sasha. She was very open to our weird schedules for drop off and pick up. We will definitely book her again!”
“Left us daily or every other day picture updates. Due to her neighborhood restrictions, she has to pick up and drop off the dog, in which cases can be convenient for most people. From what I could see her dogs were well trained which is a good sign to see in your sitter.”
“Danny and Damaris are absolutely incredible. They made Max feel so comfortable and constantly provided feedback / updates throughout the stay. We’ll continue to regularly use them!”
“Team Hopkins are truly a blessing! I can leave Chloe and know that she is in good hands. They take such good care of her and are very accommodating. I was able to to go on my trip and not worry about my Chloe and that means the world to me. Thanks sooooo much Team Hopkins!”
“I give Cadence more than a 5 star rating! Our first meet and greet went really well! We all got along well (including Keiko) with each other and understood one another. Keiko adjusted well being with Cadence as well as Scully! I received pictures and updates daily. I was very satisfied and happy that Cadence was able to watch Keiko and will definitely go through her as long as she's able to. I highly recommend Cadence. She is definitely very friendly and humble.”
“Chelsea-Jo and her family were great to Coco. We had a great first experience with Rover. She was available last minute when our original sitter cancelled on the night we were to leave town for a Funeral. Her house was clean and her and her husband were super friendly! She updated me many times, including pictures, on how Coco was doing. From the photos, they played with her and she was happy and treated as she was one of their own. I would highly recommend using Chelsea-Jo and will definitely see if she’s available in the future when we need a sitter.”
“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!”
“Bella had a great stay and wanted to stay longer! Tara and her family are very sweet and accommodating. Tara sent photos and updates about Bella throughout her stay as we requested.”
“I absolutely recommend Seyla for your Dog Boarding needs. He kept us informed of our baby's care everyday, and sent videos and pictures. I think he was better to our pup than we are, LOL! He took our baby to the water and sent us a video of the trip. Smokey looked so happy and full of excitement. Seyla will be re-booked again and again by us. Excellent Dog Care provider!”
“Mickey and his family are awesome! They treat my my fur baby as if she was theirs. Love getting pictures and videos during her visits. The kennel will now only be used as my “back up” place. Highly recommend!”
“Paula watched my Oso for 9 days & I could not have asked for anyone better. We did an initial meet & greet with her two dogs who were friendly and playful. Paula followed all instructions: feedings, meds, leashes etc. she was very communicative keeping me up to date with multiple photos a day and tracking of their walks. Just above and beyond care! Super happy with the care given & cannot recommend her enough! 🐾💛”
“Rena was outstanding! She took great care of my puppy and sent photos and videos. She took him out for walks several times each day. I will definitely use Rena for any future boarding needs.”
“King was very well taken care of! It was obvious that he had a great experience! I received updates and photos and also the items that I sent with him was returned, which I’m thankful for. I definitely recommend using Kimberly!”
“Jenny takes great care to treat your pet like family and is always our number one choice to watch our energetic lab, Junie, when we go out of town. Thanks again Jenny!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in La Plata on Rover is $58.93 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 5,600 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.
