“Lilly was so kind and great with my dog, Sophie! She was communicative and sent regular pictures and updates. She was also incredibly flexible about getting Sophie back to me when my plans changed and I ended up being home earlier than expected.”
“I would like to personally recommend Xiao if you need an outstanding dog sitter. I boarded my baby Skip Marley with her for a week. She kept me informed on how he was doing sending me pictures and videos which helped put me at ease in knowing he was being well cared for. I believe Skip may have been afraid at the beginning and on guard, but by the time I went back to pick him up he was a happy and healthy guy. I am sure she spoiled him rotten. He did not want to leave. She has a big gated back yard where Skip could run around and explore. I will definitely use her again. Thank you so much Xiao for taking care of my baby!”

“Power Duo of Caretakers! My Wife and I entrusted our puppy King Shepherd with Gail and Kris and they did an absolute fantastic job. We received amazing photos of Claude everyday and a few videos as well. Claude, was taken on trails, car rides, and entertained daily. The peace we felt leaving Claude in their care was ultimately the best. Thank you once again for an amazing service.”

“I cannot recommend Tatiana enough! She took the time to learn about my dog’s personality and immediately made me feel like my dog would be in great hands. She sent regular updates and photos/videos that showed my pup was not only safe but genuinely happy and cared for. It’s easy to tell that she truly loves dogs and treats them like her own. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and kind who will treat your dog like family, Tatiana is the one. I will absolutely be booking again!”

I was in a pinch and needed to find a dog sitter for the weekend with pretty short notice and Jen not only made Toby feel really comfortable and took great care of him, but also made me feel very comfortable leaving him in their care. She sent photos and updates every day and Toby really enjoyed his stay with their family. I definitely will use Jenn again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Rockville
I have a tiny, wonderful and sweet, but very anxious dog. Because of her anxiety my dog has a challenge with any change in routine. Robin was very open to accommodating my dog's anxiety quirks and Robin was very gentle when caring for her. This get-to-know-you one-day visit went as well as could be expected given my dog's anxious nature. Yes, I would have my dog stay again with Robin.
We are super grateful for Rachel for hosting our senior sweetheart! She administered meds and helped her deal with getting adjusted to a new place. Ultra responsive and great communication throughout. Our dog is happy, healthy, and sleeping peacefully after an awesome 5-star stay!
Nicole was so wonderful with our dog who we left with her for the weekend. She was very communicative with lots of great photos and made sure our dog had a great time! We highly recommend Nicole and will be very happy to trust her with watching our dog again in the future!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

There are 8,234 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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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.
