“Danielle was fantastic! She took excellent care of my dog during his overnight stay. She was attentive and sent me picture updates frequently. I would definitely book her for another stay.”
“Elizabeth took great care of my dog. She gave lots of updates and was a pleasure to work with. My dog loves her and seemed so happy while she boarded with her.”
“Steph took great care of Jill and kept us in the loop on the great time she was having with her two dogs. Jill was very happy and very tuckered out from a great couple days of playing when we picked her up.”
“Melissa was a perfect fit for our pup. Her two dogs are wonderful, and our dog had a great time. I’m not even sure she missed us!! Would definitely have Melissa watch our dog in the future.”
“Jess is simply amazing with my elderly and very high maintenance Havanese. He has serious separation anxiety but I never worry about him when I drop him off. She’s very attentive and patient and will go out of her way to make him comfortable. She’s really the only one I trust with my baby 🥰”
“I really want to thank Janelle, Joanna and Gwendolyn for the excellent love they gave my Broc and Remi. You could feel from the first meeting your fur babies would be in good hands. They asked very good questions about your pets, so that they could render the best care. I received updates, pictures and videos showing the fun Broc and Remi was having. I could tell Broc and Remi were having lots of fun playing with their dog Zoe. If I ever need a sitter again, I'll definitely reach out to them and hope they're available. Thank you Ladies again and thank you Rover for your service.”
“Andrew is so great with our dog Poppy - she is an energetic pup but he makes sure she gets all the exercise and love she needs! We love having Andrew as our go-to to watch Poppy so we can have peace of mind when we’re out of town!”
“Leydi and her family did a excellent job keeping Nova for a week while I was out of town taking care of personal family business. Nova enjoyed having other dogs her size to play with. I will surely use Leydi again in the future.”
“Our Bellatrix's first time with Crissy and she had a wonderful time. Crissy was great keeping in touch and sending pics. Thank you Crissy. Bellatrix will see you and Dublin again soon ☺️”
“What an amazing experience for my dogs! From the moment I first spoke to Theresa to the moment we picked our dogs up, I knew this was an exceptional experience. Theresa goes above and beyond to make your pet feel comfortable while they are away from home. She customized their feeding, treats, and even their lounge time. It’s so hard to know if someone will love your pet like you do, and no question Theresa does. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter while they are away!”
“I can’t say enough positive things about Keiwana and her family. They took great care of our Coco. Lots of attention and social connection, which was important for us. They provided updates and pictures to reassure us that she was being well taken care of. Very responsive to questions. They maintained a schedule our dog is familiar with. Plenty of walks, time outdoors and adequate feedings. We will definitely board with Keiwana and her family again.”
“Dorothy made us feel very good about leaving Penny. She looked very happy and content. We will definitely reach out next time we go on vacation when we can’t take her with us. Thank you Dorothy for taking such good care of our fur baby. 🥰”
“Casey and Marwa were so great! After a thorough and thoughtful meet and greet, they watched my Lulu for the night while we moved. It was a great first experience leaving my pup with someone not family. They always make sure someone is home with the pups and sent lots of updates. Kevin was a total gentleman and Lulu was thrilled that he shared his favorite spots with her. Lulu can’t wait to go back in a few weeks and I can travel easy knowing she’s being taken such good care of!”
“Molly was fantastic! She was patient and welcoming despite my dog’s high energy level and kept me updated throughout the stay with great pictures and regular communication. She was very knowledgeable, well-prepared, and even taught us a few new things. It was clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care. I highly recommend her and would happily book with her again!”
“Marissa is extremely caring and flexible and treats the dogs she watches like family! I consider her house to be a second home for my dog. Unlike a kennel I always know Marissa will be there to snuggle and play with the dogs and the dogs will get tons of time to play together.”
“My husband & I were ever so grateful to have our dog, Star, board with Rich. We had never been away from her for 2 weeks before and we hated the idea of leaving her in a cold, cinder-block kennel. Rich provided a warm, friendly home where we could trust that Star enjoyed her stay. We were happy to get updates and pictures of Star throughout our vacation. Even though these made us miss her all the more, we were happy to know she was being cared for with love. We will definitely contact Rich the next time we need to board Star.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Parkville is $50

I could not be happier with the care and love my girl received from Erin and Cassey while they watched my dog while I was away. They are true animal lovers, and it shows. They sent me updates and pictures that I appreciated. I know without a doubt I made the right decision by choosing Erin to watch my dog at their home while I was away. I would rate them an A+++, and I will 100% use them again and recommend them to anyone I know. Thank you both very much!
Gary and his wife Karen took wonderful care of my dog, Finn, while I was away at the beach for a few days. They were great with communication, sending updates and making me feel at ease knowing Finn was in good hands. It’s clear they truly know and love dogs, and they have a welcoming home where Finn was well cared for. I came home to a happy, relaxed pup. I’ll be booking with Gary again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
Shoniece was our dog Nutmeg’s preferred sitter. She always took great care of her. She recently watched Nutmeg during a 2 week trip of ours where Nutmeg unexpectedly fell ill due to an unknown cancer diagnosis. While we were away Shoniece went above and beyond to take Nutmeg to the vet for an emergency surgery after she noticed she wasn’t acting by like herself and cared for her during recovery. She treated Nutmeg like she was her own and that was more than I could have ever asked for.
Quinn was amazing (and a great photographer!) She was phenomenal at updating me twice a day about how their stay was going, and prompt to let me know when Riley had an upset stomach. I really appreciate and recommend her! If possible I will definitely book with her again. I know Riley enjoyed herself as well!
Dorothy and her husband took such wonderful care of our pup! He is 2 years old and full of energy, so we were a little nervous leaving him, but they did an amazing job. It was clear he was well cared for, happy, and got plenty of attention and love. They kept us updated and gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to leave him with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and reliable sitters!
Keiwana is amazing! She did a great job keeping us updated with messages and photos throughout our dog's stay. She treated our dog as if she were her own, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. I'm so glad our dog enjoyed her stay. We will definitely be booking with Keiwana again in the future. 💕
Cassie did an amazing job watching are sweet babies this past week! She took such care to ensure we were kept up to date with pictures and updates on how they were doing! This was our first time doing an in home sitter and I am so pleased with how it went and with Cassie! We can’t wait to have her back the next time we travel!! Would highly recommend!!
I recently had the opportunity to book a pet boarding for my dog Bruno with Shopie. It was a great experience overall, she was kind and friendly, she kept me in touch with my dog by sending me pictures and videos on multiple occasions I want to thanks her for everything , Sophie is someone that I really recommend to anyone who is looking for a person to take care of their pets.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Parkville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Parkville on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,102 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.
