I was super nervous leaving Kaleah with Taylor. Just because it was her first time there, and I would be out of town for a few days. But Taylor did everything she could to ease my mind. She was super friendly, and she sent me plenty of pics and videos. When I got back, Kaleah wasn’t too excited to see me, which means she wasn’t thinking “get me out of here!” I know she was just fine and I was the anxious one, not her. I would recommend Taylor and I plan to use her services again when needed.

India was absolutely the best caretaker of my boy for the weekend! She sent frequent updates and really treated him like her own. Even sent him home with a goodie bag of treats! I am looking forward to booking her again!

We were traveling and planned a last minute stop in DC and Mount Vernon. Cameron was able to watch our Luna for 2 nights while we got to enjoy the city and not worry about Luna and the heat. Plus, Luna had other 4 legged friends to hang with. Would definitely recommend and thank you for taking great care of Luna.

Definitely will be rebooking with Garrett and Ana! You can tell from the first meet and greet that they love animals and they took such good care of Teddie. They sent pictures throughout the week and kept me well informed. I felt 100% comfortable with them and Teddie can’t wait for his next visit.

This was our first time using Rover, and it was also a last minute booking, but we were so lucky to find Kimberly and Michael. They are very friendly, trustworthy and professional from the start, which immediately made us feel comfortable. They took such great care of our dog Yomi and gave her so much attention. They sent us daily photos and updates while we were away. It was really reassuring to see how happy and relaxed Yomi was. We would definitely book with them again. Highly recommended!

This is our second time boarding our pup with Jona and once again it was a stellar experience. She sends lots of updates, photos and is super responsive. Absolutely love boarding our pup with Jona and our pup was so excited when we arrived at her place to drop him off which already shows how much fun he had the first time around. 10/10 as usual! 🩷

Lashelle was absolutely amazing with Rockie! From the moment I dropped him off, she kept me updated with thoughtful, detailed messages and plenty of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Rockie is naturally anxious in new environments, but Lashelle was incredibly patient and knowledgeable. She understood his body language, gave him the space he needed to adjust, and helped him build confidence at his own pace. I especially appreciated how she handled introductions with her family and pets, always putting Rockie's comfort and safety first. It was clear she has a lot of experience with dogs and truly cares about their well-being. She kept me informed about everything—from his eating and potty habits to his progress settling in, making new friends, and even his funny moments watching TV! She also went above and beyond by cleaning him up after an accident without hesitation. By the end of his stay, Rockie had gone from being nervous to relaxing on the couch, enjoying the yard, snuggling with the family, and even warming up to everyone in the house. Seeing that progress meant so much to me. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. Lashelle treated Rockie like one of her own, and I knew he was loved and cared for every step of the way. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who is compassionate, experienced, communicative, and truly dedicated to providing exceptional care. We will absolutely be booking with her again!

I had never used Rover before and couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter than Brian! I received updates and photos throughout the weekend, making me feel confident that I had left Bernie in good hands. When I picked him up at the end of my trip, I got a happy, tired dog. I would absolutely use Brian again next time I have to leave town!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - La Plata

Winnie was treated like the cat of the week, and quite possibly the cat of the year. While we were away, Winnie experienced the kind of cat care that can only be described as cat-tastic. When she returned home from the Cat Carlton, she looked wonderfully chill, pampered, and now expects cat service on demand. Winnie was not merely looked after, she was adored, spoiled, and coddled in every way. We suspect she may have been a bit cat-atonic from all the comfort and attention, but in the best possible way - no cat-astrophes at all! If you want your cat to be treated like the absolute royalty they are, this is the cat sitter for you.

Katelyn was awesome! She communicated with me regularly and although my little guy took some time to get acclimated, she was patient with him. She also gave me some tips and recommendations. He came home sleepy from the activity and alive…love it!

FAQs for Boarding - La Plata

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in La Plata on Rover is $58.25 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 5,763 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in La Plata. About 91% of La Plata sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
