“Carlie was outstanding. We had some blips in our plans and she was extremely accommodating. Her communication was great and it was apparent she cared for our pup. We would highly recommend her.”
“Margit and Bill were amazing! We got to OC and the hotel we booked a year prior as we checked in said no pets allowed which put us in between a rock and a hard place. I contacted Bill and Margit exchanged a few text messages and determined Dude would fit in perfectly with their dogs and family. We asked if they would mind picking up Dude from our hotel and they said sure no problem! I could not have been more pleased with the texts, picture updates and just how sweet they both were with my Dude! If you are looking for a sweet home for your pet family member and you are in OC please don't hesitate to reach out to them. It was the best experience for our entire family and instantly put my nerves at ease! Thank you Bill and Margrit we will definitely use your service again!”
“So grateful that he was not only able to take care of my dog Ruby but also my bunny baskoota and the way she was hopping around her cage and eating her hay when I saw her showed that she was living her life. Ruby was so happy being with them and enjoyed her time there. Definitely going to rebook if we go back again to ocean city. Thank you so much!”
About: I cat and dog sit for my family members regularly. I have cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve been riding horses since I was 10 and started working on the farm when I was 12. I am available wherever, whenever. Whenever you need me there, I’ll be there. I will figure out a way for your animal to have top tier care. I would care for my clients home just as I would care for mine. I would never want anyone to disrespect my home therefore I would never disrespect anyone else’s.
“Collen was great. Wiyot is was so relaxed when I picked him up and he us usually a hyper type doodle. I would not hesitate to have Wiyot stay again. Thank you so much for a worry free visit.”
About: I currently have a cat and a golden retriever and would love to help you take care of your dog while you are in need. I work from home Monday through Friday so my schedule allows me to be very flexible for potty breaks and general playtime while I'm taking care of your best friend. We have over 3/4 of an acre of property and are also located in the heart of Berlin...So a walk or outside playtime is no problem.
“Beth and Ron took Alice in on very short notice and took very good care of her while we had to work. Alice liked playing with Riley and we enjoyed the pictures of them while we were away!”
About: Ive taken care of dogs of different breeds and sizes since 11years old. I’ve had pets dropped off at my house to dog sit, I’ve gone to others houses for the weekend to dogsit family, friends and neighbors that have entrusted me with their pets. I’m currently working and doing online classes from home. So I have plenty of time to focus on the pup/dog. I work wells with schedules so I can work around the normal schedule you have your dog/pup at. I don’t have a fenced yard but I do have a yard, which I walk the dogs around town to get their walks in. I have 3 cats but depending on the dog they can stay on the 3rd floor. I also have a neutered male husky and a unspayed cattle dog mix (she’ll be fixed in a few months) we have 4 adults at the house as well. I’ll do onboarding , walks , and also checking in on them if you’re away.
“We moved to the area recently and searched for a new pet sitter. My husband and I could not be anymore happier with the care Karen and Sean provided to our Molly! Our Molly felt right at home on her first stay. Karen and Sean took Molly on walks and gave her plenty of playtime. Definitely will be using Karen again in the future ❤️”
“Bailey had a great time staying with Brenda. She was wonderful sending pictures to me. Has a very nice fenced yard--perfect for the dogs to play. I will definitely have Bailey stay there again!!”
“Lauren did an excellent job taking care of Tuco. I really appreciated the multiple updates with videos and photos. Lauren and her husband could not have been nicer. Tuco is looking forward to his next sleepover!”
“Our 1 year old pitbull mix with a strong dose of anxiety had an amazing time with Denise, her wonderful family and Rocket, their dog. We received videos and pictures throughout the stay. They were so patient with our pup that she didn't want to leave when we came to pick her up!! Glad to find such a wonderful sitter so close!”
“Debra was incredibly sweet. This was a last minute booking with the holidays 1-2 days away. Debra was incredibly responsive throughout he process. She took our dog on frequent walks, provided photos/videos and updates how he was doing. Simply put, we couldn’t have asked for more. We’d definitely recommend.”
“I would definitely recommend and book again. Keeps you updated with pictures and videos. Took care of our dog like if it was her own. I had no worries during my trip about my dog being cared for b/c I know my dog was in good hands. I dropped a list minutes book and she responded quickly, which we are very appreciative for.”
“Marvina and her pups are amazing! Our dog, Koda, loves going there and always has a great time/comes home exhausted! Marvina communicates extremely well and sends plenty of pictures/updates regarding Kodas stay. We're so happy we found her!”
About: Ive been taking care of little to small pups ever since a little girl. Our family has had breeds anywhere from chihuahuas to lab to boxer. Im looking forward to meeting new pups, as well as giving them the exercise and cuddles they need or desire. If you have any specific questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out anytime! I love puppies, so anytime is puppy time. But, I'm currently available only early mornings, mid day and evenings. I do have a child at home so that will have to be taken into consideration. I work a 8-4 schedule, but I am free to leave if I absolutely need to. I can definitely do grooming. Your pet will be fed based on owners normal schedule. Dogs can be let out ever 2-6 hours depending on availability. Any rule you apply for your pet to adhere to, I will delegate that.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and my family currently has four, so I’ve had lots of hands-on experience caring for them over the years. I’m a huge animal lover and I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, potty breaks, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet with the same care I give my family’s dogs. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, and I’m happy to make time for pet care around my classes and other commitments. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet gets the care and time they need. I will always treat your pet and home with care and respect. I’m comfortable following specific feeding, walking, crate, and daily routine instructions, and I’ll make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times. I’ll give your pet plenty of attention and can also send updates and photos so you know they’re safe and happy while you’re away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ocean Pines
Highly recommend Carlie to care for your fur baby. She cared for our Corgi mix for 6 days while we were on vacation. Carlie sent us pictures of our baby taking walks and having treats. He was happy and well cared for and the peace of mind knowing he was so well cared for was priceless. So grateful for the love and care she gave to our sweet boy.
We have an older dog and hate leaving her at the kennel. We decided to try Rover. We booked Robert & could not have had a better person take care of our Bella. We received pictures and regular updates of her activities. For once she ate while away from us. We will definitely book Robert in the future.
I was in a bind and needed a sitter for less than a week out. Curtis was available for our pup. Everything worked out great and Krypto had a great time. Our dog can be a little skittish, but you could tell everything was good. He wasn’t anxious or anything when we got home. Curtis was very responsive to any question or text I had. Highly recommend and you can tell he really loves animals!!!
Alyssa was perfect for watching our standard poodle, Fin, for four nights. She sent several pictures while we were away and informed us of their daily walks and happenings. When we picked up Fin he was very happy and had eaten, which showed he was very comfortable being with Alyssa (and her cat which Fin had never experienced before :). Fin was well taken care of, we highly recommend Alyssa and will be using her as needed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Ocean Pines is $58 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $50 and $69 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 139 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ocean Pines. 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.
95% of sitters in Ocean Pines 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 Ocean Pines 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 Ocean Pines.
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 Ocean Pines 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.
