“Sophia is amazing! We’ve trusted her with Tako for years now. Her photo updates and quick communication always show just how happy Tako is in her care. She truly knows dogs and genuinely cares about them. Having Sophia look after Tako gives us complete peace of mind every time we're away. Thank you, Sophia!”
“Huan was the best dog sitter I’ve EVER had! She gave me prompt updates, and I felt so reassured and comfortable that Stella was well taken care of the entire weekend. She will definitely be my regular sitter from now on!!!!”
“Churro stayed with Viona and John for a week and had the best time. They have a big backyard where he got to run around and play, became best buddies with their Golden Retriever, Maxie, and also had so much fun with their kids. What we really appreciated was how comfortable they made us feel while we were away. They clearly know dogs and have a lot of experience, and they kept us updated every day with pictures and videos. Churro got lots of walks and attention. Honestly, he was spoiled in the best way. We could tell he was happy and well cared for the whole time. We’d definitely book with Viona and John again!”
“Xiao took very good care of Oso. Oso immediately became close with her, even during the meet and greet. Oso looked so excited to explore her home and backyard. lt was very clear Oso was loved and had a lot of fun. I will certainly book with Xiao in the future.”
“Rong was fantastic! She communicated regularly and Ralphie came home happy. I can’t ask for much more than that! Her dog, Lucky, is also a sweetheart and made a good companion for my dog.”
“Huey took wonderful care of Ziggy. She is great to work with - good communication, daily videos/photos, and you can tell she really loves caring for the animals. Will be booking her again soon!”
“Dawn was a terrific choice for our dogs. Both our dogs felt at home and were treated with the best care! Dawn kept us informed throughout the entire weekend with updates and pictures. We definitely will book again!”
“Piero took great care of our two dogs during our two-week vacation! He provided photo and video updates and was flexible with pickup and drop-off times. Both dogs were happy and healthy at the end of their stay. We’d happily leave them with Piero again in the future!”
“Gail and Kris took such good care of Mochi! He had so much fun on his own vacation and was super happy! We’re so glad to have found such good caretakers for him and will definitely use their services in the future.”
“Great stay for our dogs! Chris went above and beyond to care for our dogs. He was responsive and flexible. We are looking forward to many more bookings with him. Thank you, Christopher!”
“I couldn't have been blessed with a better sitter. Diana and her family totally exceeding my expectations with taking care of my Apollo. I received updates and photos multiple times a day, that showed the love he was getting, the amazing care he was getting, and he was happy. This was the 1st time using Rover and I was extremely nervous, but Diana and her family took away all my worry. She and her family celebrated Apollo's 3rd birthday with him. We were greeted with balloons. How awesome was that! Diana's love has for dogs shows immensely as well as her good character, and I would absolutely use her again and strongly recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter for their dog. Thank you Diana, I appreciate you and your family. Until we meet again...”
“We were delighted with the care our dog received while we were away. From the outset, it was clear that Anne-Marie clearly loves animals. She enjoyed playing with Scooter and was attentive to his needs. Scooter was completely relaxed and content when we returned. It’s such a relief to find someone so trustworthy and attentive. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”
“Kathy was amazing. I would get constant updates which made my trip a lot more comfortable. Much better experience than dog hotels. I would highly recommend Kathy.”

“I’ve used Marco before and our Dior seemed to have a good time so when a last minute need came up, I reached back out. While we prob want a few more pics of Dior, I will let Marco know in the future so we can see how she is doing throughout the day. Thank you Marco and Margaret for taking great care of our little loved one!”
“Teddy had a great time staying with Christina while we were on vacation. Christina kept us updated and shared pictures of Teddy's stay with her. We always appreciate Christina's open and warm communication and flexibility. Thank you!”
“We had a great experience with Camilo. He is super friendly and my dog had a blast. My dog has some dietary restrictions and he fulfilled our needs. He sent pictures of my dog every couple hours which was very helpful. I honestly have no complaints and would definitely recommend booking with him as I will be too in the future.”

Tracey and her family were really wonderful with our pug Lily. Tracey is very easygoing, and made us feel very comfortable that Lily was well looked after and given lots of love and attention. This is the first time we have put Lily in a house with children and it was a great decision. Lily loves children and the girls had fun playing with her and cuddling up, which is Lily's favorite thing to do! We look forward to booking with Tracey again in the near future!
I really can't praise Huan enough!! She was the absolute best dog sitter I've ever had. She keeps in touch with texts, photos and videos. This was the first time that my dogs stayed at someone else's house without me, so I was a little worried about how they would do. But Huan made sure they were eating, spoke to them so sweetly, and gave them lots of attention, walks and love. They looked so relaxed and happy in all of the picture and I think they loved having the company and people around vs. being in our house all alone for most of the day with a dog sitter stopping by occasionally. Huan is amazing and is so incredible with the dogs!!!
This was our second time using Nathalie and she was just as wonderful as the first. She communicates very well and sent photos every day, which made us feel so much more at ease while we were away. Our dog was clearly well cared for, and we already know we’ll use her again. Highly recommend!
Tatyana is fantastic! Our pup was a bit nervous at first, but she was able to quickly calm him down. It’s clear that she is very experienced with dogs. She sent lots of pictures and it was great to see how he was doing throughout the stay. We will definitely book her again!! So grateful to have found her!
Buddy had a great time with Wenyan and Purple as always! It’s so sweet to see how excited Buddy is to see Wenyan when we drop him off. He even came home with the cutest little bow tie this trip! So cute! Wenyan really takes care to the next level and we always feel comfortable with buddy staying with her!
Sean and Eve and their family were so great looking after my dog. We had a meet and greet at their house to make sure it was a good match. Sean and Eve will only look after one dog at a time, and they don’t have any other pets. They watched my dog for a week and sent pictures and videos, as well as texts throughout his stay. They were very caring and I’d definitely recommend them!
Isabel was wonderful! She cared for our Golden Retriever, Daisy, for a week while we were out of town. She sent us daily updates and pictures, which gave us such peace of mind. She lives in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood, and Daisy was very happy and well cared for. I would definitely book Isabel again!
We left our 6 yr old golden doodle with Jayendri for 4 days. She managed him very well specially his food as he is a picky eater. The best part of leaving my pup with Jayendri was that I got transparent updates about food and walks and even if the walk schedules were modified. This is something I have not seen with other sitters. Gibbs came back happy and I would love to leave him back again when we go on holidays.
Monika was such a great sitter for our Bernese Mountain dog, Samson. Communicating with her was so easy, and it was clear that Samson was in very good and caring hands. I would highly recommend her and I'm sure Samson is looking forward to getting to spend time at her house in the future, and especially seeing the rest of her family again.
My little bichon had a wonderful time in Peko’s house. He seemed to settle down with her family so quickly. She updated me frequently and very flexible with schedule. It is always so hard to find a right person when I leave my furry family behind. I think we found the right place now.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in North Potomac is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $79 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 October 2026, there are 7,717 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across North Potomac. 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 North Potomac 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 North Potomac 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 North Potomac.
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 North Potomac 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.
