“Tanya and her whole family were absolutely wonderful with our dog, Pippa! She felt right at home from the moment she arrived, and they provided the best care possible. We loved receiving the photo updates Tanya sent—it was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Pippa was while we were away. Thank you, Tanya, for creating such a kind and loving environment for our pup. We were able to truly relax and enjoy our trip knowing that Pippa was safe, happy, and so well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“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.”
“Shasta and her daughter took great care of my pup, who seems to have had a grand time staying with them. Shasta also took the time to do a meet and greet prior to us booking our stay; she also sent updates and was responsive to messages.”
“Max took wonderful care of our doggies and they will definitely stay with her again! She made them feel right at home and was really great helping each dog get comfortable in their own way. The dogs were happy and healthy when we picked them up. Wonderful place!”
“We are so grateful to Pam! She treated Mikko incredibly well. And he played with toys for one of the first times (he’s a rescue and an older dog so this was amazing). His food has multiple steps to it and she was very detail oriented regarding this. Thank you again Pam!! 💌”
“Our dog Bonnie stayed with Theresa for 10 days. She is amazing! I didn’t worry about Bonnie for a second. Theresa was communicative, sent photos, and took great care of our girl. Highly recommend!!”
“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.”
“Andy was awesome! Chapo was so excited when we pulled up! Andy took Chapo on Walks & sent photos each day! Our pooch was pooped after playing with Andy’s dog. Great experience!”
“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!”
“Cindy was great with Murphy. Friendly, easy to communicate, We appreciate her flexibility, prompt and clear communication, and her overall attentiveness to our dog. We could not be more pleased with her work and would be happy to recommend her services to our family and friends.”
“Rachel is wonderful! Great communication throughout, sent lots of updates, and Leroy came home happy and tired from playing with her dog all weekend :)”
“Masha and her family were awesome! We have a dog that is reactive to other dogs and requires medication. We really appreciate the care and attention they gave our dog. We got updates and pictures letting us know all is well with him and that was very reassuring. We would definitely love to leave him with Masha and her family again.”
“Lilly was fantastic! She was flexible. She was attentive. She was very communicative and I would highly recommend her to anybody looking to have their pup well taken care of.”

“Arianna was fantastic with our dog! She took great care of him, made sure he got regular walks, and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout our vacation. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup. Reliable, communicative, and attentive—highly recommend!”
“Ming was perfect! Sent pictures, kept me updated, and my dog came back happy, healthy, and snored like a baby that night. Haha. Thanks again everyone at Capital Animal Rescue. ”

We appreciated getting pictures and updates and we highly recommend.
Churro stayed with Viona and John for a week and had the best time. They have a big backyard where he got to run around and play, became best buddies with their Golden Retriever, Maxie, and also had so much fun with their kids. What we really appreciated was how comfortable they made us feel while we were away. They clearly know dogs and have a lot of experience, and they kept us updated every day with pictures and videos. Churro got lots of walks and attention. Honestly, he was spoiled in the best way. We could tell he was happy and well cared for the whole time. We’d definitely book with Viona and John again!
Marissa and her son were wonderful! They took us on as a last minute sit job and saved our weekend. She was so friendly and kind and laid back. Her energy is what I loved for my dog, because we are training for calm and chill and that’s what she came off as being. She was flexible and her dog got along great with my dog. I felt comfortable and at ease leaving our pup with her and this was our first time using a pet sitter. I highly recommend Marissa and if ever in town again will call her up.
It was a real pleasure working with Bianca! She is a very professional, responsive, responsible, and nice dog sitter. She always updated us with photos and did activities with our dog. And the most important thing, due to our flight delay, she also agreed at the last minute to keep our dog for an extra night. We highly recommend working with her. We relaxed on our vacation, and our dog went back happy and safe, and this is the most important thing for us. Thank you Bianka!
Kasey was great with both my dogs. All the images show how happy they are. It looks like both dogs trusted him, especially for Oreo who is very timid and takes time to warm up to someone new. Kasey handled the dogs well and shows a great deal of experience with dogs. I will definitely reach out again the next time we need to go out of town!
This was our first experience using Rover and leaving our puppy, Zorro, in someone else’s care, and we couldn’t have been happier. He was clearly well cared for, had a great time, and we loved receiving photos and updates throughout his stay. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and we even received helpful puppy-parenting tips that we really appreciated. We felt completely at ease knowing Zorro was in such good hands. We will definitely book again and highly recommend!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Rockville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Rockville on Rover is $51.85 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 8,237 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 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.
