“Louie had the best time with Crystal! We loved all of the photo updates we got of him playing and going on long walks with the other pups! He had an absolute blast and we will definitely continue to use her for future stays!”
“Tasha is so amazing! She’s such a wonderful sitter. I boarded my dog with her sometime last year and she gave updates and took such great care of him and so when I needed to board him overnight I didn’t need to give a second thought on who to choose!”
“Sonia and her family were a perfect match for my dog who likes to lounge around. Sonia was flexible with time and my dog seemed very comfortable in her home and around her.”
“Nicole and her family (as always) made sure the our two little ones were happy and well cared for while we were traveling on two back to back trips. Gives us peace of mind to know they are well loved and in a safe environment while we are away.”
“Stephanie and Luis are the absolute best! They provided fantastic care for Toto. The communication was outstanding and frequent. The reassuring updates made my time away completely stress-free. Toto came home incredibly happy and well-cared for. Highly, highly recommend!”
“She was great with Rock as she also was very patient with us being delayed by flights. He looked happy over there and well taken care of. Will definitely book again”
“Christian was awesome with Hazel! She sent multiple pictures and very quick to respond. She was very accommodating when we needed to change the pick up time. Great experience!”
“Payton and her husband were awesome! Our dogs had such an incredible time with them, they almost didn’t want to leave. They provided updates regularly and lots of mental stimulation and walks for our pups. Can’t wait to use them again!”
“Estela did a great job looking after Jack while I was away. She frequently sent pics and closely watched and attended to him that enabled his small tail wound to heal without wearing a cone all day. She treated Jack as one of her own.”
“Geneen was a fantastic host for our dog. Multiple updates per day, great communication and coordination, and above all a house filled with love. We will definitely use her again!!!”
“Amazing! My dog and I are joined at the hip and I don’t love leaving her just anywhere! Rouday was so kind and my dog took good care of him right away. His flexibility and graciousness with me almost stood out more than his professionalism and care with my dog. Highly recommend!!!”
“Cal and Kelly are absolutely fantastic! When looking for someone to take care of my two aussiedoodle pups, I could tell that Cal really knew what he was doing. The dogs were at ease during our meet and greet and I felt super comfortable leaving my pups with them. During their stay, Cal was super communicative, maintained us up to date with the dogs and sent lots of pictures and videos. He also managed to give them their allergy med without any issues. The dogs looked super happy when picked up. I will 1,000 leave my pups with Cal and Kelly without hesitation! Thank you for an awesome stay!”
“Amani and her family went above and beyond for my dog, Millie. She was attentive, responsive, and very engaged with Millie. At a time when Millie’s behavior became surprisingly unruly, Amani was calm and handled the situation like a pro. We are repeat clients for a reason!”
“Our very social and attention-craving lab mix loved his stay with Natalia and Edward. We were out of town for seven days and received adorable pictures of him playing with their dog, lounging in the living room, or romping with the family. We especially liked the big backyard that allows for built-in outdoor space and the very walkable neighborhood which allowed for going further afield. It was clear they perfectly understood what our Milo needed and were more than happy and ready to accommodate. Relieved we’ve found a go-to Rover we’d be happy to use again. Highly recommend.”
“Haydenn was an awesome sitter for our Bulldog! He was super communicative and accommodating even when our travel plans changed. We’ll definitely hire Haydenn again!”
“Lia was so attentive to my dog Violet! So great to know she was in such good hands, Lia asked great questions and clearly cared to make Violet comfortable and happy during her stay.”
“Pamela was very kind, understanding, and responsive. She took the time to get to know our dog and us in person before we dropped him off for the first time. I also like that she's home most of the day — especially useful for dogs accustomed to constant human companionship. Thumbs up! We'll definitely come back.”
“Mckinley watched my kitten Cashew over the July 4 long weekend, and she was awesome! A week before Cashew’s boarding stay started, she proposed a phone call to learn all about his care and any concerns I had. She sent consistent updates with photos/videos of Cashew throughout his stay, and he clearly had a blast playing with her cat!”
“I could not be more thankful to have found Malvi and Andrej. About a week before my pup was supposed to have her first stay w them, my dad was rushed to the ER. I reached out to see if they could take her- basically immediately. Not only did they take her in, they offered to keep her an extra day when I needed to stay longer and sent regular updates and photos of my girl having tons of fun that brought me joy in a difficult moment. While their kindness is in front of mind- they also have a super safe environment, great yard, and sweet playful pup. Big thumbs up ??”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Riverdale Park
Fany was wonderful with Cassie. She was friendly, responsive, and easy to communicate with throughout the stay. She kept me updated, and I felt very comfortable knowing Cassie was in good hands. Cassie is an older dog with some mobility issues, and Fany was kind, patient, and attentive to her needs. I would absolutely recommend her and would be happy to book with her again.
Absolute lifesaver! Aniya saved the day by stepping in for a last-minute request and took absolute best care of Bruno. Very responsive, attentive and clearly loves animals. Came home to a happy dog. Couldn't ask for a better sitter—10/10 recommendation! Thank you!!!
Dear Reeda - thank you so much for taking care of our Percy! He was so happy being at your home under your care, thank you again for being so kind and caring towards our Percy. I am sure we'll contact you again when we are out of town. NO more pet HOTELS! that is for SURE!!! I highly recommend Ms. Reeda, she is so responsible and best of all, she only takes one pet at the time, giving them all the attention they need.
Cody is a 2 year old Pitbull who has a high energy level. Rouday was a good fit because he was able to control Cody. Rouday was very professional and well prepared to receive Cody. Rouday was extremely good with our youngest pet so we are using him again to care for our oldest pet.
This is our second time with Rita and nothing but GREAT things to say. Not only does she prioritize my baby’s needs but also making us parents feel comfortable throughout the stay. My baby was sick a few days prior to his stay and she made sure to accommodate so he could get back healthy. The communication is always on point. We will continue to book with Rita!
We booked with Pamela while we were in town visiting for America 250. She took great care of Riley and it was comforting to know he would be safe and well taken care of during all the fireworks. He did well and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Pamela for anyone who needs a sitter in the DC area.
Emma is a great dog sitter. She took care of my dogs carefully and sincerely. I asked her services for my vacation and my whole trip schedule was constantly changed because of the weather in the destination. Emma was always responded timely and flexible. She send me pictures everyday and that made me relieved while I was away from my dogs. Thank you Emma!
I'm so grateful for a second wonderful time with Paula with Scout. He was in such great hands that his vacay was probably more amazing than mine. Loved on, squirrel shouts, and all the belly rubs and hugs a pup could want. Thank you, Paula, for the regular updates, photos that both helped me both smile and know he was in great hands!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Riverdale Park on Rover is $44.4 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 8,055 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Riverdale Park. 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 Riverdale Park 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 Riverdale Park 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 Riverdale Park 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 Riverdale Park.
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 Riverdale Park 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.
