“Deanna is such a great dog sitter! She and her lovely family took such great care of Romee. Romee had walks, plenty of playtime—just a perfect situation. Knowing Deanna was taking care of Romee allowed me to truly relax and not worry a bit while I was out of town. I’ll be rebooking with Deanna! Absolutely recommend.”
“Marwa and Casey are fantastic sitters! Sadie is immediately at home with them! We love getting the fun photo updates while we were out of town. We came home to a very happy and well-cared-for pup.”
“Melissa is great! Our dog loved staying at her place! He wanted to keep the fun going even when it’s the time to go home. She has a wonderfully fenced in yard, Winnie and Daisy are friendly and they get along really well. Will definitely be our go to sitter”
“Felice and her family took great care of Ollie and she kept me posted every day with photos and comments of how he was doing. I felt that he was being treated like a member of the family and he was very happy (and tired!) when we brought him home. Ollie looks forward to his next visit. Thank you, Felice!”
“We booked Ashley to watch our dog as we were going out of town for the Christmas holiday. We couldn't be happier; Ashley was responsive, sent pictures and it looked like our doggie might have had a better vacation than we did! Our dog was recently diagnosed with diabetes and Ashley handled the insulin administration with no concerns and even went out of her way to get more insulin from our vet! Ashley and her family were welcoming and they have a beautiful property for your dogs to roam. We look forward to booking with her more!”
“Jena is the best!!!! Whenever we are leaving our dog Ellie with Jena, we tell her she is going to camp because she loves it so much! She always makes a new friend and is totally exhausted from playing by the time we bring her home. Jena truly treats her like a pet of her own, and we are so grateful!”
“This was the first time I had a sitter watch my dog for an overnight stay. I was nervous but after communicating with Melanie and during the meet and greet I was put at ease. While Shiloh was staying with Melanie and her family I was completely comfortable. Melanie provided daily updates via txt, pictures, and videos and was extremely responsive to my questions/comments. I will definitely use Melanie again and highly recommend her.”
“This family treats our pet like she literally is one of their family. They are so natural with her and everyone is so loving to our Dog. We have complete peace of mind sending our pet to Jill And Chad. 1000% recommend”
“Ariel was great with Milo and kept me updated since I’m nervous with leaving my fur baby for long periods of time. But she assured me Milo was ok and sent me cute pictures. Milo and I will definitely use her again!”
“Keyona was great with my 6 year old Shih Tzu. My mind was at ease with knowing he was in good hands, considering he’s never been with anyone other than a family member. She sent pictures and videos each day, which was a plus. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Steven gave us great feedback on our dog's stay at his home. He walked her, provided photo and message updates during her stay, and was interested to hear about our normal routine before we dropped her off. It is clear that he cares!”
“Kimberly was absolutely wonderful! My dog, Cooper, has anxiety when it comes to being away from me, which can make leaving him difficult. Kimberly made the entire experience so much easier by sending photos of him relaxed and comfortable, along with thoughtful updates on his care. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We were so pleased with Kimberly that we’re already hoping she’ll be available again in July. Thank you for taking such great care of Cooper!”
“My 63 pound Australian Labradoodle loved Darby and her family so much that he looked back at Darby and paused and walked toward her when we picked him up and we could tell he would miss her. She sent reassuring videos, photos and updates morning and evening. From the videos, I could tell how much our dog loved being with Darby and how good she was to him. He had plenty of potty breaks and outside time and Darby stayed with him in the fenced yard while gardening. He was involved in home daily routines and did not need to be crated at bed time. We will plan our vacations around Darby’s availability the next time we go away.”
“There's a reason we returned to Carla, and this visit was just as wonderful as the first. Communication, pet pictures, clarity of instructions make our time away worry free. Thank you!!”
“I’m so grateful that I found Kassandra to board my dog, Benji! The consistent updates and photos provided throughout, gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Kassandra and her adorable son will love your dog like their own to make the absence easier on your pup. Oh, and benji got spoiled with that amazing fenced in yard! 10/10 recommend.”
“We had a great experience with Julia & Jacob. They took such s wonderful care of our dog while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind to receive regular updates, pictures, and videos — it was clear our dog was happy, safe, and well-loved. Communication was easy, and everything went smoothly. They truly went above and beyond by picking up and dropping off our dog, which made everything so much easier for us. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”
“We were extremely happy with Jim and Mary. They sent us numerous pictures throughout our dog’s stay and were easy to get in touch with. We could tell Jim and Mary have a love for dogs and it shows. Would highly recommend Jim and Mary.”
“I am most appreciative of the kind care that Alexis gave to my pup. And am even more grateful for the pictures and messages that he sent to me to put my mind at ease. Knowing that she was doing well helped me to enjoy my time away.”

Chris was an incredible sitter! He was very thorough and kept me updated throughout the duration of my pets stay with him. I knew that my dog was in great hands with Chris and I didn’t have any concerns. It was a huge relief to be able to leave my dog with a sitter that I didn’t have any worries about. The stay with Chris was incredibly smooth and I would recommend Chris to everyone!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Parkton is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $43 and $61 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 1,761 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Parkton. 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 Parkton 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 Parkton 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 Parkton.
<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 Parkton 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.
