“Meet and greet allowed us to have the pets meet and plan. Our Dogs stay was great. She fit in easily and was happy to play with their family. Pictures daily were cute. We will book again when traveling.”
“I recently utilized Wendy’s pet boarding services and was very satisfied with the experience. She is incredibly caring and made my dog feel right at home. Wendy was also very responsive, ensuring that all of my questions were addressed. I highly recommend Wendy to anyone looking for a dependable, loving, and professional pet sitter.”
“Pam and her daughter were so great with Pancho. They sent me many pictures and updates, it was obvious he was getting lots of love, attention and fun active time. Highly recommend and hopefully Pancho will get to pay another visit to their place!”
“Cindy was awesome. She addressed the initial anxiety of Lightning , made sure he is comfortable, and sent pictures and videos . We will not hesitate having her board Lightning again.”
“Andrea was great to work with! Very easy going and flexible which was helpful when traveling in an unknown area. But best of all were the updates on the two dogs. You can tell she is a pro and a dog lover. My dogs didn't miss a beat being with Andrea! I would highly recommend Andrea!!”
“Cooper enjoyed his time with Huan, her family, their dog and the daycare dog. She fussed over him and let me know of any concerns immediately. We also got daily pictures and videos. He came home exhausted.”
“This was our first time with Yi and we will be repeat customers. Yi was very helpful as we had many questions and initial concerns, but she was able to answer and assure us. Nala had the BEST time, Yi sent us photos daily and it was obvious to us from the photos that Nala was very happy and comfortable during her stay. Thank you so much!”
“Marina maintained excellent communication with me throughout Suga's stay. Suga was happy when I arrived and made two new doggie friends. I'll use her services again whenever it's needed.”
“Anne and family were great with our dog. She was very easy to communicate with, has a great house with a fenced in backyard, nice neighborhood, and parks nearby, etc. Her own dog was adorable and got along well with our high-energy 2-year old dog. We never know about how our dog will get along since, although he is quite friendly, he does have a lot of energy and loves a lot of running, chasing, etc. We had various special instructions for feeding, walking, playing, and the like, and Anne was great in taking care of those requests. We appreciated getting pictures and updates and we highly recommend.”
“I had a wonderful experience boarding my dog, Hazel, with Bryn. At the meet and greet, Hazel obviously liked Bryn (which is not always the case when meeting new people) so I knew we were off to a great start. Bryn has a calm personality and definitely is knowledgeable about dogs. She has a lovely home and a great fenced in backyard where the dogs can play. Her dog, Kepler, is very sweet. Bryn sent pictures and updates during Hazel's stay and reported that she did very well. She followed my instructions as far as giving Hazel her medications. I'd happily recommend Bryn to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog.”
“Rachel was awesome with Kira! Super responsive and sent lots of photos. Kira is difficult to warm up to at times but she and Rachel were quickly able to get off on the right foot.”
“Calvin and Vanessa were wonderful caretakers for our dog, Snickers, during our vacation. They sent us pictures of Snickers throughout his time boarding at their home. We would highly recommend Calvin and Vanessa!”
“My pup enjoyed his stay at Ben's. He sent me frequent updates and photos. The big plus was the fenced backyard where Dude could play and release his energy. I will definitely choose Ben next time I need someone to take care of my pup.”
“Marissa was truly incredible with Sumo! She kept in constant contact, sending pics and videos so I always knew he was happy and cared for. When he wasn’t feeling well for a couple of days, she even went above and beyond by making him fresh chicken and rice—something I appreciated more than she knows. She is an excellent sitter, incredibly caring, and someone I would 100% recommend and rebook without hesitation. Thank you so much, Marissa!”
“Cheza loved her stay with Masha! She got to have her own mini vacation while we had ours. Masha was very communicative and kept in touch and sent pictures. And she was also helpful with navigating using Rover too. We will definitely be booking again the next time we need a sitter.”
“This was the first time we used Rover and we couldn't have found a better dog sitter for our Peppi than Adva and her husband Steven. Peppi is a very shy dog and doesn't get along with strange people too easily, but we could see in her that she had really enjoyed her stay in Adva's home. The next stay with them is already booked!”

Mahamat took excellent care of our dog. We left Harley with him for two weeks, and he was kind and flexible enough to extend the stay for an additional week when our plans changed. Throughout Harley’s stay, Mahamat sent us photos and updates almost every day, which gave us great peace of mind. He and his family created a warm, caring environment, and it truly felt like Harley was part of the family. We highly recommend him to anyone.
We had a wonderful experience with Alice! Her house is very neat and full of points of interest. My cat didn’t fully adjust to the resident cats, but she had a loving, safe room with lots of points of interest. A huge window, two cat trees, a space under and on the couch, toys, and so on.
Chai had the absolute best time with Marissa! She stayed for 8 days and was so well loved and cared for. Chai completely bonded with Marissa's dog, Kobe—they had a blast playing together, and Chai especially loved trying to steal all of his toys. Marissa sent regular updates and plenty of photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Chai was in fantastic hands. I will absolutely book with Marissa again and highly recommend her!
John, Viona, and family took the best care of our pup, Hanks! They took him in as if he was their own while we were gone for almost 2 whole weeks. We were anxious about leaving him for that long, but once we met John and Viona, we felt at ease. While we were away, he got tons of love and attention and was treated as part of the family while with them and their own dog, Maxie. We were stress-free while traveling knowing Hanks was happy and well-cared for and we enjoyed getting photos and videos of him regularly. We would absolutely recommend John & Viona and they will definitely be our go-to, first contact when we travel from now on =)
Ivy did a fantastic job caring for my dog Zuko, and the whole experience was amazing! Before the sit even started, she took the time to ask thoughtful questions about Zuko's routine, play style, care needs, and personality. You could tell right away how much she genuinely cares. Zuko is high anxiety and usually wary of strangers, but he and Ivy bonded instantly. He loves her! Throughout our time apart, Ivy was incredibly communicative, sending photos and daily updates so I always knew how his day went. She truly goes above and beyond to make both Zuko and me feel comfortable. This was my first time being away from Zuko, and Ivy's care and attentiveness put me completely at ease. I can't recommend her enough. We'll absolutely be booking with her again! Thank you, Ivy!!
Carlos and Travis took care care of my two boys over a weekend, and were very accommodating when I had a flight cancelations and had to extend another night. My small one had nervous stomach issues and they were communicative and took care of him. Thank you for the peace of mind and loving hands!
We had such a wonderful experience with Oyin Damola! From our very first communication, she was incredibly responsive, professional, and kind. She took the time to do a meet-and-greet beforehand, and she was so friendly, welcoming, and accommodating that I immediately felt comfortable leaving our dog in her care. Our dog had an amazing stay and was clearly well cared for and loved. Oyin was attentive, caring, and made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was in such good hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely continue using Oyin in the future. She was absolutely amazing, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!

There are 8,184 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Rockville. About 91% of Rockville sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

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.
