“Crystal was phenomenal in every way for our little guy! Very professional and offered personalized service for our "fur baby" as she called him. Would definitely recommend her service and will use her again. 😎”
“This was my first time using the app, and Estela answered all my questions before I booked. When I dropped off Coco, she immediately went to her. She also sent me pictures and kept me updated on how my dog was doing throughout the day and overnight. I appreciate how much she cares about animals, ensuring they return happy. I was pleased to see my dog happy when she came back, and we will definitely use her services again.”
“Lucia kept us up to date with our dog activities by frequently sending us pictures and we really enjoyed them. From the pictures, we could see that our dog was happy. We will definitely bring our dog to her next time we are going out of town again.”
“Payton and her husband were awesome! Our dogs had such an incredible time with them, they almost didn’t want to leave. They provided updates regularly and lots of mental stimulation and walks for our pups. Can’t wait to use them again!”
“My dog, Pancake, had an exceptional boarding experience with Ms. Valeria. She was incredibly respectful and responsive, and her home was immaculate. I appreciated the regular updates she provided during Pancake's stay. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!”
“Kiki is the best! She is flexible, responsive, and gave me complete peace of mind. Finley clearly had a great time with her and Skittles, and I really appreciated the regular updates- it made me feel like he was safe, happy, and well cared for the whole time. Highly recommend!”
“My dog Effie had a 5 star experience while staying with Bria. She was both caring and attentive to my dog and treated her as her own. I received pictures/video updates while Effie was under her care. She was even understanding when my return flight was delayed, and worked with me to arrange an extension for the additional time. Would not only recommend, but I myself will be a repeat customer. Thx Bria”
“This isbout secind time leaving our pup with Kristy and this time it was for about 9 days, and she was absolutely wonderful. She was extremely proactive with updates and sent lots of pictures, which made us feel so comfortable and reassured while we were away. She was very communicative, transparent, and friendly throughout the entire stay, and truly made us feel at ease knowing our puppy was in such good hands. Traveling felt so much less stressful because of her, and we wouldn’t go to anyone else.”
“Asha is amazing! It was our dog's first time with a sitter and we were nervous. Asha updated us regularly and took special note of what was needed to help our girl feel more comfortable. We will definitely be booking with Asha again. Thanks for such a great experience!”
“Nicole and her family (as always) made sure the our two little ones were happy and well cared for while we were traveling on two back to back trips. Gives us peace of mind to know they are well loved and in a safe environment while we are away.”
“Mady and her family were the best! My pup enjoyed walks, a large backyard to run around in, and the company of dog playmates. Mady consistently sent pictures and updates. I highly recommend Mady’s services, and will be rebooking with her again!”
“We used Jeramy as a last minute sitter when our original plans fell through, and we were so happy with the experience! Our dog can be a nervous with new people, but she loved Jeramy and had a great time during her stay. She also sent lots of pictures and videos to keep us in the loop. We will definitely be using her again :)”
“Awesome service! He took my pups in at the last minute, sent pictures, took them for walks, and made them feel comfortable. Provided special attention to one of my pups that has really bad separation anxiety. I highly recommend if you want someone that will treat your pups as his own, this is your guy!”
“When I tell you I’ve never felt more relieved to have someone like Michele watch my fur babies while away for my wedding. She made me and my pups feel comfortable and I could feel that dogs are her passion, not just a hobby. I pray that every time I need a sitter she is available!!! You’re the best Michele!!! Thanks so much!”
“Sonia was fantastic with Murray and was extremely warm and understanding throughout his stay. She also sent the best dog-sitting pictures of anyone we've booked with and it shows how much she cares.”
“Stephanie was such a great host to my dog Bruno, she maintained communication/updates throughout the visit and was very attentive to my instructions for Bruno given he has a hard time adjusting to new places. Would definitely book with them again! -Lindsay”
“Tasha is a great sitter, she cared for my 2 babies while I was out of the country. She keeps me updated every day on how they're doing and she provides multiple photos. My babies love her. Keep up the good work.”

Tonya and her family took exceptional care of our Rottweiler, Hero, while we were away on vacation. From the start, they were communicative, attentive, and clearly experienced, which gave us great peace of mind. Hero was happy, well-exercised, and clearly loved during his stay. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos, which made it easy to relax knowing he was in such good hands. It’s obvious that Tonya and her family treat every pet like part of their own family. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, caring pet sitters.
Crystal is my forever sitter! Every time I get my lil man back he is calm and glowing. He has been coming out of his shell thanks to her loving care and creative enrichment. My shy, old guy even plays tug and initiates play with other dogs now! It’s so great to see this side of him. Thanks Crystal for always taking such good care of Scooter 🙏🏾
Ilia is an outstanding sitter! She came over and bonded with Tofu prior to our travels. We were also fortunate that he got along well with her two dogs. She provided me with daily updates with pictures. Tofu made himself at home with Ilia and settled in pretty well by the first night. I strongly recommend Ilia to sit your fur baby. She's caring, attentive, communicative, and overall compassionate. I was comforted to know that my dog was in the greatest care in my absence. Thank you, Ilia!
Marissa’s home is so welcoming that my pup settles in just like it’s her own house. She gets to play with her new friends. I know that when I pick her up she’s going to be both excited to see me but sad to leave such a great home! We will continue to have Marissa watch my pup knowing she’s in amazing hands!!
Karla was absolutely wonderful with Playboi! They were professional, reliable, and treated my dog like their own. I really appreciated the daily photo updates and detailed notes on their walks and playtime. Playboi seemed so happy and relaxed when I returned home, which gave me immense peace of mind while I was away. For those who have a gentle giant in their home, I highly recommend Karla and will definitely be using their services again!" Contact this sitter
Lily was so kind and accommodating. She took a last minute booking for my boy Kash. My first time booking with her and she was so professional, and kept me informed the entire trip. She was even able to keep him for an extra night when my trip was delayed, and dropped him off for me the next day. 10 out of 10, amazing dog sitter. Thanks Lily:)
I had a great experience! My flight was unexpectedly canceled at the last minute, which completely changed my travel plans. Thankfully, Charei was incredibly flexible and understanding. Charei worked with me to modify the booking and even allowed me to pick up my dog 9 days earlier than originally planned without any hassle. That level of flexibility and kindness meant a lot during a stressful situation. I really appreciate their communication and willingness to work with me. I would absolutely book with Charei again and highly recommend them to other pet parents!
Angela communicated excellently with me from our first interaction after I requested the booking. From setting up our meet and greet, dropping off and picking up my boy, and throught the period he was in her care, she was very engaged. While I was away, she was concerned when my dog was not as friendly (as he was initially) and she reached out to ask how she could improve his mood; which showed how vested she was in his wellbeing. It was a joy reading about, as well as seeing the videos and pictures of her family getting along with my dog, and I will surely use her service in the future. Thank you for taking good care of my boy, Angela!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lanham on Rover is $47.1 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 8,002 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lanham. 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 Lanham 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 Lanham 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 Lanham 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 Lanham.
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 Lanham 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.
