“Melissa was AMAZING with my dog. Cass is very shy, but her dog, Daisy, made the transition much easier. I appreciated that she sent me pictures of Cass daily and he looked so happy. Melissa was very understanding when I was caught in traffic on my way to her and allowed for it. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Janelle and Joanna were amazing! We have a puppy who is definitely in training. I was very worried about leaving him, especially since he was still newer to us. Janelle met Remy and me a few days before with her adorable pup Zoey. She had great communication prior to visit, during, and after. Remy felt very comfortable at her place. I am thankful for the extra TLC and patience she showed our boy. We will definitely being calling again for future needs! Thank you ?”
“Steph is wonderful! She did a meet and greet with Oaklee and myself which is nice we knew where she was staying. She kept my mind at ease the entire time Oaklee was in her care by sending pictures and videos. Oaklee and me say thank you so much Steph! 100% would bring Oaklee back and use Steph!”
“Erin is wonderful! She is so friendly and we trust her completely to take good care of Gracie our mini Goldendoodle. We have already rebooked her while I recover from knee replacement surgery.”
“Ms Olga was so nice. She sent videos/pics often. Bruno had a good time she even let him stay an extra day when my travel plans got disrupted. Can’t wait to have Bruno there again.”
“Nicole is very nice, easy to work with. Her updates with pictures gave us peace of mind. She always quickly texted back. Our dog seemed like he had a good time. Thanks!”
“Shannon has been our dog's sitter for a long time. Drop offs and boarding with her are always very easy. Our dog can be a puller yet Eileen handles him well on walks-- AND walks him often throughout the day. And of course, the photos she sends are priceless. Our dog clearly is having a blast and always makes new friends each time. (A huge feat for a timid/ anxious rescue). Thank you Shannon!”
“Theresa helped us feel comfortable leaving Louis for the weekend while we travelled out of state. She was warm and friendly when we met and she made friends with Louis right away. She asked thoughtful questions about him and gave us the confidence that he'd be ok. He loved her so much he sat at the back door waiting for her to come back after she dropped him off! 💜”
“Roxy has a second home for life! Hands down the best Rover experience...actually, all dog sitting experience EVER. Everything from drop-off; acclimating Roxy to her new environment, to reuniting Roxy with me at pick up was seamless. My heart and mind was at ease having Roxy with Di and her beautiful home...and loving family!! I hope you will take us aguan!!! Thank you!!”
“Rich provided a clean, comfortable and happy environment for Libby. She got plenty of exercise, playtime and potty breaks. He was gentle with her and learned how to manage some of her quirky behaviors. I felt very comfortable leaving her in his care and am thankful to have found him through Rover!”
“We truly value the care and love Linda provides our buddy Biscuit. We know he loves his walks in the woods with her! Great communication throughout his stays, too.”
“Veronica did an amazing job taking care of our girl! She is very knowledgeable and is able to take care of a variety of small dogs. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future.”
“Year in & year out, we trust Ginnie & Steve with our pups. We stumbled on them in the Rover app almost 7 years ago when our Dogsitting fell through for our wedding and we are so thankful it did. They are the most wonderful sitters; so kind, attentive, and treat our girls as if they were their own.”
“Jessica was great with my baby. She sent me pics. My baby looked happy from the meet and greet even when he went back 2weeks later like they never missed a bit. Jessica was attentive n lovable. Big thanks Jessica, he will be back. ❤️”
“I think Lois was my best Christmas gift! We had a big family trip planned over the holiday and I hated the thought of my dog locked in a kennel. I just happened to check the Rover site for the first time and saw that Lois was willing to take in a “guest” for Christmas. We set up a meet and greet because Lois also has a dog. I trusted her knowledge of dog behavior and she was confident the two dogs would get along. They were like brothers! During the stay, she spoiled Milo with extra attention, special treats and toys, long walks, and he got to be part of the family on Christmas Day. She sent me photos and was a great communicator. I would highly recommend Lois - she does an amazing job and I look forward to taking Milo back.”
“I thought I’d left a review for this and realized I didn’t so wanted to add it asap, o literally had a calm, happy , totally differently behaved dog after my energetic pittie stayed with Jill and her partner when I went on vacation last summer. This was the first time I’d gone away without my pup and she was in amazing hands with them both. They took her on so many of their walks to help her energy and she loved playing with other dogs. I like how when I picked up, Jill’s boyfriend made sure my dog recognized me and ran to me as the owner, to make sure I was really the person supposed to be picking the dog up. This makes me feel safe leaving the dog with them in the future,”
“My dog Luna seemed to have enjoyed her time at Linda’s home and playing with the other dogs. Linda was communicative and flexible.i appreciated the daily photos and sometimes even videos. I will be booking with her again.”
“Danielle, her family and her two dogs were the best of hosts!!! Danielle works from home so she was always there to take care Juney and all of her food needs, walking needs and taking her out back to her fenced yard to play and get all the energy out. She also kept us updated every day with how she was doing and also with great pics to show the fun she was having or just relaxing. We couldn’t be happier. Danielle is awesome! I look forward to using her again for Juneau!!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Parkville
My pup Strawberry enjoyed her stay with Elizabeth. Elizabeth cared for my pup like she was her own dog. She kept me abreast of how Strawberry was doing and sent lots of pictures and videos. She was flexible about pickup and drop off times which is definitely appreciated since I travel by plane a lot and have no control over my arrival time back home!
Heather watched my dog Nova for a week, and everything went smoothly. Nova was kept safe, fed on schedule, and returned home healthy and in good spirits. All of the core instructions were followed as requested, and the stay was completed without any issues or complications. I appreciate the dependable care during my time away.
Halimah was a great sitter for my dog. Despite it being a longer stay, she took the time to meet with my dog and I, decide if we were a good fit, and reassured me of any concerns I may have while away (pictures/videos sent, very communicative). Zada is a great dog as well and I wish them the best of luck on future endeavors, a very nice pair!
Absolutely wonderful experience. We were nervous leaving our 4-month-old puppy for the first time, but Linda made the entire process stress-free. He watched our dog for three days and went above and beyond to keep us updated. The videos and pictures she sent weren't just quick snaps, they showed our pup playing, napping, and looking totally relaxed, which meant the world to us. It was obvious Linda took the time to make our young pup feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. Thanks to her, we actually got to enjoy our vacation without worrying. We will definitely be booking again.
Irma was great! She was very friendly and personable took such great care of my 70lb boxer/lab, and he came home happy and healthy. She has a nice sized fenced yard for all the dogs to roam and play in. She sent daily pictures and videos of my dog's activities. I would definitely use her again and recommend anyone else to also.
We were in a bind and had to find someone who could watch our pup last minute before a work trip, and I’m so glad we found Erin. Erin was responsive, flexible, and sent updates with pics the whole time our pup was staying with her. Our pup looked cared for, loved, and happy the entire stay. I would absolutely recommend Erin!
Melissa was great! She allowed my dog and I to do a meet-and-greet in her backyard with her 2 dogs before I booked. She sent me a picture of my dog each day and let me know how he was doing. She also gave me a summary when I picked him up. Would definitely recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Parkville on Rover is $43.33 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,085 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Parkville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Parkville sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Parkville landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Parkville 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 Parkville.
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 Parkville 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 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.
