“Samantha is such a great caretaker! She really pays attention to my dog’s needs. My dog really enjoyed her stay with her. She got her one her routine well and her yard is a great sniff spot!”
“Karen was amazing with Jazzy! Our dog has significant separation anxiety, but Karen immediately understood her needs and knew exactly how to help her feel comfortable and secure. The farmland is a huge plus offering plenty of safe, private space for dogs to play and explore. Best of all, Karen and her family treated Jazzy like one of their own. We had complete peace of mind knowing our fur baby was so well cared for, and we're incredibly grateful to have found a sitter we trust. The ample pictures and videos were an added bonus! We'll definitely be back again and again!”
“May and Ally were excellent sitters for our two dogs while we went away on vacation. They are warm and welcoming everytime we interacted and my dogs were accepted into their family with open arms. We received multiple photos per day of their activities and were notified if anything came up. Thank you Nat and Ally for taking such wonderful care of my dogs we will definitely use you again when we're need to board our dogs.”
“Christa watched my 3 pups for 10 days and did a wonderful job. We were able to set up a meet and greet prior to my trip. She sent me photos and updates during their stay, and they all looked happy. Highly recommend booking with her!”
“Very good experience everytime with the sitter. They always send pictures and vedios and give all the updates. We know that our Shiner is always in good hands. We are very thankful.”
“Rachel and Jason were wonderful and accommodating hosts for our Aussie. I appreciate that they took the time for a meet-and-greet up front to make sure our dog would get along with theirs, and they were patient with her when she arrived very excited and barky. Also got to see another dog that they were hosting, and Rachel was super sweet with him. I'd go as far to say she's a dog whisperer! We received regular updates and photos to put our minds at ease. Would definitely leave our pup with them again.”
“Bella’s boarding experience with Mindy was great. I received videos / updates almost daily. Bella was very well taken care of. She enjoyed playing with the other dog, roaming around their big back yard, and going on walks. We will definitely board with Mindy again.”
“Priscila (and her mom) did an awesome job with our two pups! We got pictures and videos and updates on our week-long vacation and our boys looked very happy. You can really tell they are animal lovers. I would not hesitate to book with her again!”
“Always a pleasure having the spare humans watch Bun! A stress free sitting experience with lots of cute photos and an obvious passion for your furry friends!”
“I couldnt have asked for a better sitter than Eric! He took wonderful care of my dog on short notice, sent multiple adorable photo updates, and followed all feeding and walking instructions to the letter. My puppy came home happy and relaxed. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”
About: I have recently relocated to Frederick, Maryland from California after recently retiring & wanting to be closer to family <3 I have over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits, including senior and special-needs pets and animals requiring medications. I currently have a French Bulldog, four cats, and a rabbit of my own, so caring for multiple animals with different personalities, routines, and needs is part of my everyday life. I’m comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding and care instructions, providing walks and enrichment, and recognizing changes in an animal’s behavior or health. I’ve also volunteered with animal shelters in both California and North Carolina. I worked as a first responder for almost 14 years, I’m dependable, trustworthy, safety-conscious, and take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pets very seriously. I’m retired with a completely flexible schedule, so pet care can easily be accommodated throughout my day. I’m available mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays for boarding, doggy daycare, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I provide a safe, comfortable environment tailored to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I have a fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time and plenty of indoor space, including separate areas when a visiting pet needs their own quiet space away from my animals. I’m experienced with medications, senior and special-needs pets, and will closely follow all feeding, exercise, medication, and care instructions. I will treat your animals as if they were my own while I am trusted with their care. As a retired first responder, safety, responsibility, trust, and attention to detail are extremely important to me. 🐶😺🐰🏡🐾
“Sayuri was phenomenal. She and her husband took excellent care of our elderly dog and went above and beyond to make him comfortable. He was totally at ease there. Good communication. We will be happy to use her again.”
“I could tell from the first time we met that Gena loved the dogs she cares for. This was the first overnight for our 8 mo old pup but I felt comfortable leaving her with Gena. Gena sent me updates and pics through the day. I will definitely use her again.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Vanessa! Luna was so well cared for during her stay. I really appreciated the regular photo and video updates—they gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. When Luna wasn’t eating, she reached out right away to let me know and came up with a thoughtful solution that worked. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear she genuinely cared about Luna’s well-being. She even told me Luna was one of the easiest dogs she’s watched, which was great to hear! I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative dog sitter.”
About: For as long as I can remember, dogs have been a huge part of my life. With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, I’ve learned that every pup is different and deserves care that’s just as unique as they are. For the past 7+ years, I’ve also been fostering dogs through local rescues. Helping dogs transition from uncertain beginnings into loving homes has been incredibly rewarding and has given me experience with many different temperaments, energy levels, and personalities. The idea of boarding dogs in my home came from a challenge I faced myself — finding a place that truly felt safe, loving, and comfortable for my own dogs when I had to go away. I wanted more than just a place for them to stay. I wanted them to feel cared for, understood, and treated like family. When your dog stays with me they will enjoy plenty of safe, supervised playtime in a large, fully fenced yard, giving them space to run, explore, and burn off those zoomies. Whether your dog loves active play or relaxing cuddle time, their comfort, safety, and happiness always come first. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. We’re used to having dogs around and all the activity and responsibility that comes with them, so caring for pets feels like a normal part of everyday life. When we don’t have any extras here, the house actually feels a little too quiet—like something is missing! I want every pet in my home to feel as comfortable and at home as possible. I try to keep their routine and familiar comforts as much as I can—if they sleep in the bed at home, they’re welcome in the bed here; if they love curling up on the couch, that’s where they’ll be. My goal is to make their stay feel like a vacation, not a kennel stay. I want them to feel safe, relaxed, loved, and right at home while their family is away.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Monrovia is $50
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Monrovia
After a few disappointing experiences on Rover, I was understandably nervous about finding care for my two larger dogs during a three-week (20-day) trip. Her profile looked promising, but I was completely unprepared for just how exceptional the level of care would be. From the moment I met her and her husband, I felt an immediate sense of peace and trust. She was very attentive. My dogs took to them and their home right away. She gave them all the love and attention they receive at home—and possibly even more. She even let my pup snuggle in bed with her. It was clear that she loved and cared for them as if they were family. Throughout my trip, I received frequent pictures and videos of my dogs enjoying what was clearly a vacation of their own, complete with plenty of cuddles and belly rubs. I received updates frequently and any questions I had were answered quickly and thoroughly. When I picked them up, they were calm, happy, and completely content. As a busy professional who hopes to travel more, I cannot adequately express what it means to have found someone I trust—literally without a second thought—to care for my fur babies. A truly 100/10 experience. I could not recommend her more highly.
Glenn is amazing! He took wonderful care of Ovi and made the entire experience stress-free. He is friendly, thoughtful, and genuinely cares about the pets he watches. He is always responsive to messages, provides updates, and is ready to help whenever needed. Glenn creates a true home-away-from-home environment, and I felt completely comfortable leaving Ovi in his care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.
Oakley and Navea had an amazing stay with Dan over Christmas. I could tell they got tons of exercise because they were happily worn out when I picked them up. Dan was very friendly, kept us updated, and was flexible with our schedule. Highly recommend—would definitely book again.

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 Monrovia 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 Monrovia 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 Monrovia.
<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 Monrovia 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.
