“Our dog Winston absolutely LOVEs staying with Sarah! This is the second time we hired Sarah to watch our dog and she was fantastic. Great communication and fast responses. Will hire again!!”

About: Friendly, reliable pet care that puts both pets and their parents at ease. With over 5 years of experience caring for cats and dogs, I provide attentive, conscientious boarding in my clean, pet-friendly apartment. Cats and dogs are always supervised and safely separated when needed to ensure a calm, stress-free stay. Pets enjoy a structured routine with plenty of one-on-one attention, enrichment, and regular updates while you’re away. I treat every pet like family and focus on making their time with me comfortable, safe, and loving. A daily routine is more than a schedule it’s a promise to your pet. Through intentional care, exercise, love, and attention, you build a relationship that grows stronger each day. And as your pet thrives, so does your bond. Every pet is unique. I adjust my routine to fit their needs, energy levels, and personality. I do sitting inside my apartment where there’s me and my 14 year old son we love animals and just wanna play apart in making someone smile knowing there fur babies are in good hands. I’d greatly appreciate it if you could help by leaving your experience with me by leaving a review at the end of your boarding 😊
“Aida was a great sitter for my pup. She was very communicative with me and very attentive towards him. I was able to have peace of mind while on vacation as I was updated with pics and activities throughout each day I was gone. I highly recommend Aida for any of your dog sitting needs.”
“Makhayla has been caring for my pup, Boots, since he was a puppy and now I’ve adopted his sister and she cares for her too. She is reliable and always keeps me informed and sends pictures often to let me see how my little fur babies are doing.”
“Meagan, Chris, and pups, Butter, and Lucy took great care of Ozzie. Ozzie does not always warm up to strangers immediately but felt at home with them burrowing under their blankets and sleeping in their pup beds. They provided daily report of Ozzie antics and photos keeping me posted. Meagan really loved Ozzie and animals in general, and adjust to them easily. It was evident Ozzie enjoyed his staycation. We will definitely board Ozzie at their place in the future.”
“She was absolutely incredible with my dog Prince. She is very passionate about animals as she way and beyond my expectations. My puppy came home relaxed and happy.”
“This was my first time boarding my 3 month old puppy and I'm glad I could do it with Lady. She was very friendly, and fell in love with Goose right at the meet and greet. She texted pictures every morning and was very prompt and friendly with my inquiries about him and his stay. She was a great sitter and I'd definitely utilize her again! Thank you, Lady!”
“Veronica is the most genuine and dog-loving person I have ever met. I knew that my pup was in great hands (and that he was being spoiled!). Her experience with dogs should put anyone at ease and take this as your sign to book with her!”
About: I love dogs and in addition to growing up with dogs and pet sitting, I’ve been a volunteer at local animal shelters and have experience with a variety of dogs - young and old, different breeds, behaviors, etc. I’ve lived with dogs my whole life, and when I adopted my boxer/beagle mix, Sasha, from the shelter at two years old, she became my greatest teacher, showing me how to love deeply, be patient, and make the tough calls that come with being a devoted pet parent. I have experience caring for dogs at every life stage, from bouncy puppies to sweet seniors. Special food requirements? Daily meds? I’ve got it covered. I pay close attention to each dog’s unique personality ... some thrive on extra snuggles, others prefer long walks, backyard playtime, or peaceful naps in the sun on the deck. I think it’s important to set up a meet-and-greet with new clients. It’s the best way for us to see if we’re a good match and to go over your pet-care needs in person. It’s also a great opportunity to get all those questions answered, and chatting face-to-face just makes things smoother. And honestly, meeting a new pup is the best part! At the end of the day, we know who’s really in charge: the dogs. Our job is to make sure they’re happy, healthy, and surrounded by love. I work from home and have the flexibility to play in the backyard, take walks, and provide personalized care as needed. In the last year I became especially skilled at taking care of our senior dog so am ready to provide any specialty care if needed. I have a fenced yard and quiet neighborhood with walkable sidewalks and lots of opportunities for sniffing out the perfect spots. No other pets or children in my home.
“Our bud always has a great day with Linda. She knows he loves being outside so spends extra time with him in the park and in her yard. Very sweet, we appreciate her care!”
“So glad Nathaly was available to watch Pedro again! I knew I didn't have to worry about him while on vacation. Nathaly sent photos of Pedro getting lots of play and snuggles during his stay with her. He came home a very happy and tuckered out doggo!”
“Robert was fantastic! He cared for our two dogs for 5 days while we were away. He was easy to communicate with, and he sent us lots of pictures and updates daily. Our dogs came home very calm and happy. We will absolutely use Robert again for future dog sitter needs.”
“Elizabeth was an amazing dog sitter. She watched our newly adopted dog Donkey for 3 nights when we had to travel unexpectedly for a funeral. She gave Donkey exceptional care. She kept us updated multiple times a day with pictures and really left us at ease especially during an already stressful time. I would highly recommend Elizabeth!!”
“Karla was absolutely amazing with Molly. I got daily updates and Karla was so conscious and considerate of when to walk Molly during an intense heat wave. My pup came back happy and I will absolutely rebook with Karla!”
“I can't say enough how wonderful Irene is! This is the second time we have boarded with her. My husband and I went for a 10 day trip abroad and our pup had never been away from us for that amount of time. She sent lots of updates and pictures and I could see how happy she was. Irene truly treated her as if she was one of their family and did everything she could to make sure our girl was comfortable. Thanks to her I was able to enjoy our trip without worry. I knew she was in excellent hands. Plus her beautiful sweet dog Benny was a great companion for her.”
“April was the BEST! She was super accommodating and sweet with Yani. Sent pictures and regular updates. She was thorough with Yani’s care and super responsive. Her sweet fur baby, Penelope and Yani got along so well making the experience more of a play date than boarding. Definitely reaching out when we have our next trip and I would highly recommend!”
“We absolutely Love Mrs. Barbara. I was so nervous for pal, but he fit right in. She really took care of my dog. I also like the fact that she kept me informed everyday and sent pictures.”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Parkville is $50

Dotsie took such wonderful care of our dog while we were away for 10 days. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such loving, capable hands. She sent daily updates and photos, which made it easy to relax and enjoy our trip knowing our pup was happy and well cared for. It was clear that Dotsie genuinely loves animals and treated our dog like one of her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate care!
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!
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.

There are 2,139 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Parkville. About 93% of Parkville sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
