“Jeff was absolutely fantastic with our senior dog - thank you for taking such wonderful care of him! Very easy to work with from booking to pick up - incredibly helpful and accommodating for our last minute trip. We can’t wait to see him again!”
“Payton and Graham were wonderful hosts for our dog, Blue. He was obviously well taken care of and happy during his time with them. They communicated throughout and sent pictures and videos to keep us informed. They have a good space inside and outside for dogs to roam and play. We will definitely use their services again.”
“Tasha was great! Quick responses, she sent pictures, asked great questions, and made the drop off and pick up very easy. Would definitely want to use her again! The dogs loved her!”
“Nicole and family did an amazing job with Zack! He had such a great time that he's now exhausted 😴👍. Their kindness, responsiveness, and care were truly appreciated – thank you for making our experience so special!”
“I really appreciate Crystal’s timely communication and genuine care for dogs. She also holds a lot of insight on how to provide great care and train for dogs which I value. Crystal is a great dog sitter and would love to bring my pups back in her genuine care and love.”
“Ms. Pam is very patient and professional. Thank you for looking after our Sweet Fur Baby Boy Kishon while we were away. She made us very comfortable & sent us pics, and updates on his stay with her. We appreciate all you do. Kishon loves to play with Ms. Pam Sweet Fur Girl Cassie also. He can’t wait for the next stay🐶🦴”
“This was my first time using the app, and Estela answered all my questions before I booked. When I dropped off Coco, she immediately went to her. She also sent me pictures and kept me updated on how my dog was doing throughout the day and overnight. I appreciate how much she cares about animals, ensuring they return happy. I was pleased to see my dog happy when she came back, and we will definitely use her services again.”
“My active pug had a great stay with Colleen and family. I knew he was in great hands and they kept in touch with pics of Vinny and their lab Lily. Lucky to have found them!”
“I was really concerned about my fur baby because she’s never been without family, EVER! We met Paula and her daughter at our arranged meet and greet which went well. When I dropped her off her her new friend on Friday, I told her to be a good girl and she looked back at me and turned running off with her new friend. They contacted us everyday, gave us updates with photos. I really think it was a good experience for both of them as well as myself. I will definitely rehire Paula and her wonderful family as my permanent sitter! 5 Stars ⭐️”
“This was my second time leaving my rescue dog, Tao, with Rouday, and both experiences have been great. He was understanding of Tao's occasional timidity after being bounced between multiple shelters as a puppy. I also appreciate that he makes dog sitting a family affair, which has been great for Tao's socialization. I'd definitely recommend Rouday to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!”
“Christian had great communication and was very prompt in responses and updates. My dog stayed with her for a few days and seemed like she had a good time. It was my first time boarding her at someone else’s house— would recommend Christian!”
“Malvi and Andrej are amazing hosts and your dog will have the best time in their yard. We have appreciated their help when we have had to leave our girl. Highly recommend.”
“Precious and Devin did an amazing job with Deuce. This is his second stay in their home and from the pictures and messages they sent me he made himself at home. He was spoiled by all the belly rubs and attention and that made me feel so good to know he is welcomed and loved in their home. I really appreciate their care for him.”
“Stephanie was such a great host to my dog Bruno, she maintained communication/updates throughout the visit and was very attentive to my instructions for Bruno given he has a hard time adjusting to new places. Would definitely book with them again! -Lindsay”
“Cal and Kelly are amazing sitters. Bodie had a great time at their place. Lots of snuggling and playing with their two friendly dogs. We received lots of pictures and videos so always knew he was doing great. We will definitely use them again.”
“I could not give a more glowing review of a dog sitter. Our dog, Alba, is anxious, and Chad and Regina knew exactly how to help her feel calm. With more than 25 years of experience in veterinary medicine and related fields, Regina handled her with a confidence that put us at ease right away. They were also very communicative, sending plenty of photos and updates throughout our time away. We came home to a relaxed, happy dog, and we wouldn't hesitate to book again. Highly recommended!”
“It was such a pleasure meeting Fany! And took great care of Jade!!! I am so happy to know that Jade was being cared for by someone who knows how to care for little dogs!!!”
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! This was my first pet boarding with neighbor Alex. Our meet and greet was wonderful, and I knew then my fur baby, Lexi, would love staying at his home. Alex and Lexi enjoyed one another during my recent trip. Alex even got Lexi to eat during what is normally a hunger strike when staying with new sitters. I’ve already booked my 2024 trips with Alex keeping Lexi. Unfortunately my previous boarding facility just lost a client!”
“Nadia was a pleasure to work with, prompt responses, professional and courteous, sent pictures of our dog every day, we will definitely book with Nadia in the future!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Riverdale Park is $50

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Paula was absolutely wonderful with Duchess! I always feel completely comfortable knowing Duchess is in such good hands while I’m away. Paula was kind, dependable, accommodating, and went above and beyond. I truly appreciated the extra care and thoughtfulness. Duchess was happy and well cared for, and that peace of mind means everything. I would absolutely book with Paula again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring for their fur baby! ❤️🐾
10/10! Boozy loved it, and she sent me lots of pictures and updates throughout his stay. As soon as I dropped him off, I knew he was in an amazing environment because everyone in the house started playing with him right away. Boozy also loved her dog! I would definitely recommend her to anyone.
Katya was great! We did a meet and greet, and it was clear Lenny felt comfortable in her home and loved her yard. Katya was communicative, shared photos, and kept us updated on how Lenny was doing. Lenny came home happy and relaxed, having met some new friends. We will book again - thank you, Katya!!
Bettina and her family were amazing company for my Ozzy while I was on a short trip. My kid-loving boy got to love on her child, had some canine companionship, and came home happy and exhausted. I got regular updates and great photos. Looking forward to many more stress-free trips knowing Bettina is there to care for my boy!
Rene was wonderful and provided great care for my dog, Kolbe. She was kind, knowledgeable, professional, and warm. She provided pictures and updates each day and even arranged a meet-and-greet before Kolbe’s first stay to get to know us better and make sure she’d be a good fit. Would highly recommend! Kolbe will certainly be back in the future!
KG was amazing with our two dogs. They've come back with more training then they started with after one weekend. She gets dogs - who they are, what they care about, what's fun, what's scary, what's too much - and meets them where they are. Can't recommend enough. Big bonus is the pictures you get - you feel comfortable knowing how much fun they're having.
Ari and her mom (in lieu of Ame who was away at the time) were amazing at hosting Opal for our week away from home. We had a lovely meet and greet, and got to see where she would be staying and playing with other pups. Ari and her mom sent plenty of updates, photos and videos, which gave us a lot of reassurance that Opal was having a wonderful time. We’re already planning the next time we would like to have Ari sit for Opal!
I highly recommend Thalia as a pet sitter. Our dog had her first pet-sitting experience with Thalia and it was a great success. Thalia is kind and easy to communicate with. Our dog was very comfortable with Thalia. I was very stressed leaving our dog for the first time and Thalia made our separation stress-free. Thank you!
Javien was fantastic with both of my pups!!! He communicated daily, made adjustments when I forgot to drop off one of my pups anxiety Rx and kept my pups happy. First, he took my last minute request like 24 hours before my last minute family trip. Then, he was just awesome the entire time. I couldn't ask for anything more than that to be honest. He kept my babies safe, smiling & even when he took another pup in he did a gradual introduction to each other and made sure he kept my 1 pup with slight food aggression away for the others while eating. I will use him again!

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Riverdale Park can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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.
