“Olivia was an excellent dog sitter. We left our two dogs (Teddie/cockapoo & Chloe/chihuahua) in her care for 9 days. She was very attentive to every need we expressed about the care of our two pups. We typed up care instructions for each dog so there would be no misunderstandings. She went above and beyond to see that their needs were met according to what the instructions required. She sent video and pictures to capture just everyday moments of what was going on in their life while we were away. Everyday they seem to look happier and happier. I highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to care for your pet while you are away.”
“Ms.Tanisha was amazing with my girl Bella! She recognized that Bella gets a bit anxious when away from me and allowed her time to get adjusted with her household. She sent a bunch of pictures, updates, and fast replies. If Bella had to stay away from home again I would choose her! Bella was definitely in good hands :)”
“TayJuana did an excellent job with Coco! She was patient and understood this was Coco’s first stay with someone else. I can’t wait to use her again and would recommend her for sure.”
“Max, our 80lb Golden Retriever, loves staying with Kristin. We've had Max stay with Kristin over 3 times now and each time Max has a blast, is cared for, and comes home happy and healthy.”
“Kushantj was wonderful with my older dog. I received regular updates and photos and I felt great knowing she was well cared for. Will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Sandra and her family were absolutely amazing with Echo for her 17-day stay: they took her out on excursions, updated us daily, and even let us know about which dogs Echo got along best with. We could tell with each photo and video that our pup was having the time of her life, and we were a little worried she wouldn't want to come back home! 😂 Echo got all of the attention she needed and had a blast playing with all of the dogs. Would 100% recommend boarding with Sandra; she's an expert with dogs, and we totally trust Echo in her care.”
“Angela was amazing! She was so kind, attentive, and kept our dog active and happy while we were away. She is a true animal lover! We really appreciated all the updates, photos, and videos, it gave us so much peace of mind. Highly recommend her and would absolutely book again! 🐾”
“Eli was awesome! My dog is somewhat shy but she took to Eli right away. Eli picked my furbaby up and once he was back to his home he sent a picture of my pooch and where she had her kennel setup. Skittles was able sit and stare out the windows, which she loves to do. I received plenty of pictures to put me at ease. Eli also had a camera setup so I could see my dog if I wanted!!! I’m super happy with Eli as he was on time for pickup and drop off and overall is a very nice person! I will definitely board my dog with Eli again!!!!”
“Anthony did a fantastic job sitting for our pup! His communication was top-notch, and he kept us updated throughout the entire stay with photos and check-ins. Everything went super smoothly, and we couldn't be happier with the overall service. Highly recommend Anthony to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Rebeka took wonderful care of Izzy once again! We really appreciate the thoughtful updates, questions, and photos throughout her stay; they gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that Izzy had an absolute blast playing with Rebeka, her family, and another pup. Izzy came home happy, well cared for, and tired from all the fun. We highly recommend Rebeka and will definitely book with her again!”
“Marlin was awesome while watching my cat Buckeye. She really put me at ease about leaving her with a sitter for the first time. Marlin was quick to ask questions and respond when needed, even provided me updates on how my cat was doing. I would absolutely recommend Marlin as a sitter to anyone in need and will be booking again in the future. Thanks Marlin!”
“What can I say?!? Candace is a phenomenal dog sitter and my pup enjoyed getting pampered and taking walks. Look no further, Candace is amazing! She will send you pictures/updates and spend lots of time with your pet.”
“Priscilla was amazing with our little one! She made sure she felt right at home and spoiled. She kept us informed with pictures and stories throughout the stay. We will definitely use her again!”
“Robert and Pamela were amazing with my girl! They treated her as their own and she came back super happy! I received daily pictures and was overall really impressed. They have a large backyard that is perfect for playtime. I realized I didn’t have enough food for my girl while I was going to be gone, and they even offered to help pick up more food for her. Super sweet people! Definitely will be using them again!”
“Shane and his pack took great care of our buddy for a weekend away! Kept us up to date and was so easy to work with, will definitely look to board with them again!”
“Merritt had a great time staying with Jessica and Max. Jessica set me photos throughout the stay, which provided confirmation that he had settled in quickly and was having a great time. I will definitely be utilizing her services again.”
“Sharon is an excellent dog sitter, highly responsible and kind. She has a fabulous setup for small to mid-sized dogs --- great, fenced yard; extensive deck; and best of all, a homey family environment. Highly recommended!”

Bria was Amazing! She was able to assist us with an emergency reservation. Bria’s energy is friendly & reassuring. She provided daily updates about Rocki and was very responsive. We would definitely recommend Bria’s services! We look forward to Rocki’s next adventure with Bria! 🤗💖
I am the owner of a bichon frise – Shih Tzu mix puppy who is quite anxious and quite attached to my husband and me. We previously had only left him with family members when we traveled. That situation however was no longer feasible. So I became the anxious one looking for a dog sitter who would make my beloved pooch, feel comfortable. Jacqueline was the answer to my prayers. She only boards one dog at a time. She has a job that allows her to work from home. And she is calm, kind, and patient. Jacqueline and I communicated easily and she sent me photographs of my pooch every day that I was traveling. I really didn't worry about him a bit after the first morning – – I knew he was comfortable and safe. What more can you ask? I'm very happy to have found Jacqueline.
I would choose Annette anytime to take care of your precious fur babies! She truly treated midnight as her own and provided updates/videos multiple times a day. She’s very knowledgeable when it comes to knowing what’s best for your pet! Super thankful for Annette and her services!
Robert and Pamela are wonderful! Our dog Annie is an aussie mix. and is very anxious with many people. I could tell she loves these two and felt very comfortable at their home, and received wonderful care. They even sent pictures during her stay! Totally recommend Robert and Pamela (also they both have wonderful, friendly personalities.).
Tanisha is hands down the best dog sitter I’ve ever had! I’ve used her three times now, and every experience has been great. She is incredibly reliable, caring, flexible, and always willing to accommodate my last-minute requests, which I truly appreciate. Whenever I’m away, she stays in touch throughout my entire trip and sends daily pictures and videos of Kash. Those updates give me so much peace of mind because I can actually see that he’s happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. Most importantly, Kash absolutely LOVES being with Tanisha and her family! He’s always excited and in a great mood when I drop him off, and he comes home just as happy. That tells me everything I need to know about how well he’s treated while he’s there. After three stays, I can confidently say that I completely trust Tanisha with Kash. She treats him like part of her family, and I never have to worry when he’s in her care. I couldn’t recommend her more highly. **Best dog sitter ever!**
I’m so happy with the care Malik gave my pup! Great experience boarding my pup with Malik! He was very communicative, sending regular texts and photos, and followed my pup’s strict diet instructions perfectly. I really appreciated his care and attention. Thank you again, Malik! I would definitely recommend him! 🐾
We had a great experience with Lakshme! She took wonderful care of our dog while boarding her for a week. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in good hands, and it was clear that she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout her stay. We really appreciate the care and attention she gave her and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Kirti and her family were amazing sitters for my dog Joy! They went above and beyond and treated her like their own. Their dog Sunshine was also a wonderful companion for Joy. I look forward to having Joy stay with them again in the future and am grateful to have found such a loving and caring family for her to stay with when I travel. Their love for dogs is genuine and they have set up their home to meet every comfort for Sunshine and any Rover dogs they host.
Tianna was an OUTSTANDING choice for our fur baby Syre. She was very responsive and kept us updated during our trip which put our mind at ease. We did a meet and greet before the stay for Syre to become familiar with the house and Tianna was just as pleasant then as she was during the entire process. Should we need someone to keep Syre again, Tianna will be our first choice.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Laurel is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $67 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 7,818 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Laurel. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Laurel can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Laurel home-away-from-home, 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 Laurel.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Laurel 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 , 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 .
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.
