“Christina was great with my puppy! This was my first time leaving her, and she did so well thanks to Christina! I received photos and videos throughout her stay. I would definitely use Christina again.”
“Elisa and her family were fantastic! They took great care of our Yorkie and sent us updates with pictures every day, which really put our minds at ease. I could tell that she was loved and pampered. We will definitely be booking them again. Thanks again.”
“Samantha is truly a gem and cared for my dog like her own. She sent regular pics and videos. My dog felt at ease for 5 days with her. I wholeheartedly recommend her!!”
“Karen was extremely nice, very welcoming of our pup Milo! she kept me updated with videos and pics which really showed how happy and safe Milo was! I really recommend her and will definitely keep booking with her in a future😊😊”
“Poh Huey is absolutely amazing. She took great care of our dog Belle recently when we were out of town. She was responsive, courteous, and very professional. Huey was genuinely attentive to Belle, which was greatly appreciated. She provides video/photo updates. Her fenced backyard with artificial turf provides a safety and clean playground for dogs. Her two dogs are super friendly. Huey is the best!!”
“Jill and Sean were absolutely wonderful with our dog, Gideon. They graciously agreed to a day trial run, which meant so much to us as we navigate some changes in his life. Since the passing of our older dog, Dino, Gideon has struggled with being separated from us and can become quite anxious at drop-off. Jill and Sean were incredibly patient, flexible, and comforting when Gideon became upset. They took the time to help him settle in and made him feel safe and cared for. Throughout his 7-hour stay, they sent thoughtful updates and photos that reassured us he was adjusting well and receiving lots of attention. It was clear that they genuinely cared about Gideon’s well-being and understood that every dog has unique needs. Their kindness and compassion gave us tremendous peace of mind. We are so grateful for the excellent care they provided and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and loving pet sitters. Thank you, Jill and Sean, for taking such great care of our boy! 🐾❤️”
“Amanda was very communicative and took great care of my dog for a long weekend! I got regular updates, and he seemed to get along well with Amanda’s dog too. I would happily leave my dog with her again.”
“This is an absolutely fantastic choice for a dog-sitter, in my mind. Leslie was loving, caring and she treated Frances, my terrier-dachshund with the closest and kindest attention—plenty of walks, balanced diet, happy human company to sleep with when she desired, and various places to rest—so Leslie passed those all those important measures.She also sent me photographs with comments fairly often, which delighted me and made me know that Frances was safe and happy! But then, of Great value was the fact that she always could find positive human companionship—her cousin came, and let Frances and another dog, sleep on his knee, looking utterly content, her roommate really liked Frances and showed it, and Leslie did too. AND there was always her dog, and then occasionally a neighbor’s dog or another client’s dog visiting for a number of hours. That was Heaven for Frances, and just what I was hoping for. A place where Frances could be, as Leslie put it, a member of a pack. NOT a large, in any way overwhelming pack, but a small pack, consisting of one or two or conceivably three other dogs, which she could be with. THAT and the essential human warmth which was very much present—was all I could dream of—and Leslie provided it. Thank you so, so much. I will definitely use her services again! Leslie is cause for peace of mind, great happiness and satisfaction for Frances and me.”
“This was Duncans second visit with Ali, he stayed over two weeks this time. He came back to me happy, healthy and showed no signs of stress at all. The daily pictures sent to me indicated he was having a fabulous time, enjoying Ali’s family and all the love provided. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing he was being well taken care of. Once again I can highly recommend Ali, she is wonderful!”
“Gail and Kris took excellent care of our little guy and sent lots of adorable photos and videos! We were very comfortable leaving him in their care and 100% will book again. Thank you!”
“both of our dogs seemed well cared for. His property has plenty of space for the dogs to run and he took them for walks in the woods, which I’m sure they enjoyed. I would consider boarding our dogs with him again.”
“Katie and Adam were brilliant. We have an old dog and have had issues in the past with nervousness. Sam came home happy and content. We are so happy we've booked again for next month!”
“I wish I could give 10 stars to Karen and her family! Our dog, Casey, is a rescue who is a bit anxious when he is away from us, but we didn’t need to worry. Karen kept us updated and we could sense how happy Casey was during his stay. I highly recommend Karen; I know she will be our first choice for a “home away from home” for our dog!!!”
“Apollo had a lovely time staying with Sriju! She has such a peaceful, calm spirit and a cozy home. Apollo felt comfortable right away. Sriju’s house is located on a corner with a large yard next to it and there is a playground and dog park close by. We feel lucky to have found her!”
“Raghavi and her family were great. From the start, they made sure to get to know Archie and understand his needs, and Archie was very comfortable with the family as well as their dog, Simba. If you’re looking for a sitter who will love and care your pet like their own, I highly recommend Raghavi!”
“We love having Susanna take care of Ruby! She’s kind, prompt, and makes sure our pup is taken care of when we need a drop in or have to spend a night away. Thank you Susanna!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Poolesville
Kayla was wonderful watching our young pup. This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone, and Kayla made her feel right at home. She is so quick to respond to messages, sends picture updates and has a wonderful home setup for dogs to feel comfy. I also appreciated that Kayla asked if there were any special requests that she should be aware of when watching our dog. Our dog warmed up to Kayla immediately, which made us feel like she was in good hands. We would absolutely recommend Kayla as a sitter!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Poolesville on Rover is $39.38 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 6,719 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Poolesville. 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.
93% of Poolesville 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 Poolesville 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 Poolesville 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 Poolesville.
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 Poolesville 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.
