“Crystal is so knowledgeable about Dogs! She is an amazing rockstar!! She sent pictures and videos and gave me and my daughter a full itinerary!

“This was my first time using Rover and I am very happy to have come across this site and even happier to have come across Ms. Estela. We had an absolute wonderful experience with her. From the beginning she was very friendly, helpful, and communicative. She provided updates and daily pictures of Santy and kept us informed of his well being. As much as we were anxious leaving our dog behind for few days, she made us feel comfortable that he was in good hands. There are no words that could describe my gratitude for Estela’s service. I would definitely be using her service in the near future and 100% recommend her to anyone that needs a loving animal care taker.”
“Luisa was incredible with our pup who was staying with her for the very first time. From the consistent updates (photo AND video) to the text updates of how he was managing, she let us have a full trip with a peace of mind! Could not recommend enough!”
“Lola found a home away from home with Jeff in his lovely home in Hyattsville. We received daily updates on her adventures including walks and hikes, even her lounging on chairs and the front porch. Lola shared lots of love with their family, including the family dog Ted. We would be happy to have her spend more weekends or vacation times with Jeff later this year.”
“Nicole was amazing! She communicated very well, sent texts with updates, she sent pictures and she answered every call and text. I was nervous for my first boarder experience but she made it SO easy and comfortable! Her energy and aura will make you feel at ease! I will definitely be using her again💯”
“She was great with Rock as she also was very patient with us being delayed by flights. He looked happy over there and well taken care of. Will definitely book again”
“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!”
“Bria was the best! She has a loving and caring personality. I was a little anxious since this was my first time leaving our Schnoodle, Bonnie with someone other then a family member. Bria is now extended family! She sent updates and photos daily, which was really appreciated. We will definitely use her services again and recommend her to friends and family.”
“Payton is awesome and she truly cares for my dogs. She takes really good care of them and gives me plenty of updates (pictures, video, and messages) while they're in her care. She is the only one in this area that I trust to watch my dogs!”
“Thank you Tabatha for welcoming my feline baby into your home again and for patiently helping him get adjusted to his new environment. You allow him time and space, provide him comfortable accommodations and send me regular updates and photos of him. Thank you.”
“Tasha was great! Quick responses, she sent pictures, asked great questions, and made the drop off and pick up very easy. Would definitely want to use her again! The dogs loved her!”
“Pam is a gem! Her and Cassie (an adorable chi mix) welcomed Cherry for a week long stay while I was on vacation. Cherry came home tired but relaxed and happy. Pam was a nice big yard where pups can hand out and explore during the day. I would definitely leave Cherry again with Pam.”
“Yasheen took excellent care of our high-spirited lab mix pup. He sent daily pics and was communicative throughout our trip. When Milo returned to us he was happy and healthy. We plan to use him again when next we’re out of town!”
“Colleen took wonderful care of our cockapoo for 3 days. She sent photos several times and provided photos. She also was able to give some eyedrops several times per day that our dog required. My dog seemed content and well cared for. Thank you.”
“Kiki was amazing with my corgi pup, Mushu! She's a true professional and kept me updated every day with adorable photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind during Mushu's first extended boarding stay. It was clear that Mushu was happy, well cared for, and having a great time. Mushu and I can't wait to book with Kiki again!”
“Christin & James went above and beyond with my dog’s exercise needs. Plus sooo many update pics and videos. They let me drop her off last minute while I was dealing with a life changing emergency. And I’ll forever be appreciative of that.”
“Asha was so great with my 2 month old, Eni! She prioritized her safety my making sure to wipe her feet after being outside while also make sure she had loads of fun and sent a bunch of pictures.”
“I really appreciate all of Sabrina assistance and the proper support with the care of Kamara my fur baby, Sabrina understood the assignment needed for the caring attention that Kamara needed being that Kamara is a elderly dog and my little heart beat. Thank you for your Service Sebrina, God Bless you.”

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.
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!
Yasheen did an amazing job caring for my two large dogs over the holiday. It was their first time staying with someone else, so I was a little nervous about how they would react. but he was so patient and took the time to sit with them, offer different treats, and help them feel comfortable. He kept me updated throughout the stay and truly cared about making them feel safe. I really appreciated how calm and dedicated he was, especially with two big dogs. I would absolutely trust him with my dogs again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter! 100/10 he did a really good job!! Thank you so much!!
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 🙏🏾
So happy to have found Estela. She is very good with Dexter, who is not open to everyone. I go away on vacations knowing that he is in good hands. Estela is wonderful to work with and responds quickly. I appreciate that she lets me modify my booking when needed to extend the time. She stays in contact with photos. I am grateful to have her care for Dexter.
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!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Lanham
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lanham on Rover is $48.84 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 8,052 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.
