“Matt took great care of our pups, properly spoiling them for us like we would and kept us updated with great pics. We never worried and were happy the pups had as great a vacation as we did. Top notch!!”

“Sheri is amazing, amazing and even more amazing! She took care of my little pal just like I would. I received daily pics and updates and I can't say enough great things about her care. Thanks again for everything!”

“Alexandra watched my kitten, Louis at her home for a couple of nights and was absolutely wonderful! Her dog was also super sweet and got along wonderfully with Louis. Alexandra was very communicative and sent tons of updates and pictures of Louis. I felt completely at ease leaving him in her hands and I would 100% have him stay with Alexandra and her dog again! 😊”


“What a wonderful family!!! They were so welcoming of our big Akita and took care of him just like he was their own. And their dog was also great with mine. They were so accommodating and happy to have Rocko. I would 100% recommend them to anyone and will be using them again. Thank you again Zach and Kelsey!”

“My dog had an amazing time with Michelle and Milo - She liked it so much it seemed she didn’t want to leave! Seriously, Michelle took great care of my girl and made sure all of her needs were taken care of.”

“Ashley was amazing. She and her family took fantastic care of my two dogs while I had to leave town unexpectedly for a family emergency. She updated me with pictures and videos of them every day. Will definitely use her again the next time I have to leave my fur kids behind for a little bit.”

“Grace was so welcoming for Oliver's first stay. He enjoyed her yard and hanging with her dogs and their toy basket. Grace shared lots of updates and made sure Oliver was able to settle in quickly. I felt he was in great hands while we were out of town and I look forward to Oliver spending his next stay with Grace.”


“I felt very good about leaving my dog with Amanda. I was gone almost a whole week but because of all the pictures and texts it didn’t seem that long. Amanda will definitely be my go to sitter the next time I need one.”

“Damacia was excellent to work with. We met her a few days before we left on vacation. Very clean and well behaved other pups. Nice environment for our younger pup. She updated us through the time Maggie spent there and was great about meeting us to pick her up. We would highly recommend Damacia for your pet sitting needs!”

“Thank you so much to Le’Quitta and her family for taking such great care of Boss ☺️ She kept me updated with pictures and communicated well. Will definitely be rebooking! We knew he had a good time when he slept the majority of the day when we got him home❤️ Thanks again!!!”


“My dog had an excellent stay with Hilary! I was very happy with the care and attention my dog received and I will definitely book with Hilary again if she's available. Hilary sent the best pics of my dog and she took him to the doggy park as well. She was very careful and thorough with my care instructions and I highly appreciate this. Thanks so much!”
“Christian was absolutely fantastic! He was very easy to work with. He took great care of dog family member... Christian communicates well and is very responsive. We're happy to book with him any time! Highly recommend!”


“We are so grateful to have found Ayme! We have an anxious dachshund named Newman that we haven't been able to leave with anyone but my mother. Ayme set up two meet and greets with Newman to garner a relationship with him prior to an overnight stay. Newman was still a bit anxious and fearful when we first dropped him off but both Amye and Andrew went above and beyond to make him as comfortable as possible and everything was great from there on out! We received lots of photos allowing us to relax on our trip knowing that Newman was doing great and with people who truly cared about his well being. I can't say enough good things about our experience with Ayme and Andrew; it meant so much to us and we will definitely re-book.”

“Elizabeth is the best communicator about Tulley’s stay I’ve ever experienced on Rover! She contacted and sent photos twice a day which was so reassuring! He looked so content in the photos, especially when he was snuggling beside her on the couch. That showed me how happy he was. He also has digestive issues that Elizabeth managed perfectly. Totally recommend her to care for your dog!”
“Becky was such an amazing dog sitter for our little guy Uno. I was so lucky to book her last minute! She has a lovely home with a backyard for the dogs to enjoy the sunshine. She sent us plenty of cute pictures to keep us updated on our trip. Would 100% book with her again.”

“Ashley took excellent care of my dog while I was away! She made him feel right at home and sent lots of picture updates throughout the stay. It was a relief knowing that my dog was in such good hands while I was away! I would highly recommend her.”

“James was absolutely amazing! He kept my mom’s senior dog for over a week and was extremely flexible due to us being away on an international vacation. He provided regular updates and photos/videos. We know that Maisie was in amazing hands, thank you so much, James!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Laurel
Susan and her family were great with our dog, Haley! They were very prompt with communication and even sent several pictures throughout the day. They have a nice, large fenced in yard, which was great for Haley to run around. We would definitely recommend Susan and her family to anyone who needs a sitter!

I had the pleasure of leaving my puppy with Shanisse and Kim for 1 week while I went away. I can't lie leaving my puppy that long was extremely hard for me. She sent me pictures and videos of Coco multiple times of the day. They have a really big closed in backyard and she seemed to love running around in it. As far as Coco being in the she house she was in her own space that was sort of "fenced" in with appropriate pet friendly gates. She had her own "condo" space. They did have one dog and a cat that coco got along with but I do not believe they had much interaction. I left food, toys and instructions that I do believe they followed. The communication was very good with Shanisse and Kim. I did not have much communication with Shanisse in person but more with Kim. They seem to work well together one for caring for the pets and one for the online support. Overall my experience was very good and I will be booking again. For reference my puppy is a cavapoo and is an out 15lbs. She did very well in their home. The posting says dogs allowed on furniture but I am not sure if she was in their furniture or not because I left her own bedding and she had her own little condo.

Grace took such great care of our puppy Myla. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay. Taking on a puppy is not an easy venture and we appreciate her willingness to not just watch Myla for the week but also give her lots of love and attention too!

This was our first time using a non-family pet sitter so we were cautious. Amy was great at communicating, arranging a park meet-up and then a home visit. While we were away, she regularly sent updates and photos. It helped us feel at ease knowing our dog was well cared for. We were very happy with Amy!

We highly recommend James! This was our first time leaving our dog overnight with a non-family member, so we were very nervous! It couldn’t have gone any better. James provided us with great updates during our time away and put our minds at ease! We could tell that our guy was having a blast. He cried the entire way home because he was sad to leave! Thank you taking such good care of him, James!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Laurel is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $72 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 853 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.
96% 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, 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 Laurel.
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 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 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 VA 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.
