“Karli saved us at Zion when we couldn’t bring our poodle in. At the last minute she quickly responded to our request, and went above and beyond to help us. We can’t thank her enough!”
“Honeybun (my dog) was happy and exhausted after I picked her up both days I had Jackelyn watch her. Great communication and I never worried about honeybun being in her care. Would book again (and I did).”
“Our Good Boy, Beemie, loved Bonnie & her family. They treat & love him as one of the family, and that makes all the difference. Booking again when our Boy needs a tender.”
“Conrad was so great with our anxious pup and took great care of her. He did a great job sending us pictures and promptly replying to our questions and messages. We are grateful for his awesome care!!”
“Holly is wonderful!! This was Rascal’s 2nd visit and he was a very happy lil guy. Holly and her family treated my dog like family. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her to everyone!!”
“We love Cindy so much and feel so lucky that we were able to find her for our Charlie Bear. She is a fantastic and super communicator and provides us with daily updates about our furbaby and what he's up to throughout the day. I completely felt at ease after our initial visit to meet. She was professional, warm and fuzzy all in one! We're excited that we now have a go-to person for all our dogsitting needs.... we're just hesitant to leave this review because that means her bookings will increase and her availability will decrease! BOOK FAR IN ADVANCE! Thank you Cindy for giving us the peace of mind to really enjoy our time away knowing that part of our family is left in your care. THANK YOU THANK YOU!! And I am pretty sure that Charlie is missing you since coming back home. Looking forward to his next stay!!”
“Marlon was great! It was the first time Izzy had ever been away from us and she had a little trouble adjusting. He kept us informed of how everything was going and by the second day, she was playing with the other dogs. The fenced in back yard was a definite plus.”
“Stacey and her family were so great with my dog! They made me feel comfortable from beginning to end. She sent lots of pictures and kept in contact the whole time. My dog loved being with them! I would definitely take him back to them when we travel again.”
“I needed a dog sitter last minute. She was able to help me within 30 minutes of me looking! She took pictures every day and sent them to me! She also washed my dog, wich was very nice and didn't even mention it! That's what I call going above and beyond as a small bissness owner! There need to be more people like her in this world! I would highly recommend her to everyone! Thank you so much! I'll definitely be using Kari many more time! For all my pet animals.”
“Amy is great! We have left our dog with her two times and she does a great job sending us pictures and updates. She even watched our dog within an hours notice- thanks again! We will definitely be using her in the future.”
“Stacy was AMAZING!!! I can’t think of a better person to watch my dog. She even sent pictures updating me throughout his whole stay. My dog was so happy when I picked him up and so grateful to have found her.”
About: I've cared for a number of dogs and cats of all temperaments. Shy or nervous rescue dogs are no problem! I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, so you can rest assured knowing you have one of the best looking after your pets. I have a wealth of knowledge, experience, and patients to ensure the best possible stay.I work from home so I have the ability to be with your pets 24/7, walks and/or runs are optional depending on your pet and your comfort level. I work remotely, which allows me to be available for extended stays with your pet. While I'm away, my partner cares for our own dogs and cat so I can fully focus on your pet's needs. When I stay in your home, I care for your pets as I would my own. It's their space and their routine, and my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at ease while you're away. I'll follow their routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, comfort, and care. I also treat your home with the utmost respect.
“Liz was great! She sent me photos regularly and updated me on how Callie was doing. I would definitely use Liz again and highly recommend her for anyone looking for a pet sitter. She responded immediately to any questions I had leading up to the stay and was accommodating with drop off and pickup times. I had no hesitations leaving my pup and will definitely use her again if she is available.”
“Dexter was so comfortable, it was like he was staying at a resort! He loved being the only dog in the house and was so well cared for. We will definitely bring him back next time we leave town!”
“Scot was amazing! We came in from salt lake and needed a sitter for the day. Winnie had fun and was worn out! Scot sent pictures and was very easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!”
“Aubree was great. Good communication along with pictures throughout the stay. My pup is a little reserved in particular situations however Aubree did great. I will definitely use Aubree again to take care of my pup.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rockville
Liz was absolutely wonderful! We had a last minute trip to Zion and really wanted to hike the narrows but be respectful of hotel rules re leaving dogs in the room. However, we recently had someone bring an aggressive dog to our home, which has or may have altered how our big male views other dogs. Not wanting to chance it, Liz agreed to meet us the day before and, of course, everything was fine. The dogs were happy, we were able hike the Narrows without worrying. She sent pictures and was just super. Great communication! She is also conveniently located in town and has a separate room and fenced yard where our pups could be kept if they didn’t get along well. **this was also our first time using Rover. Will use it again!
I was able to book Liz last minute for my very timid/fearful of many things, pup. It went better than I could have asked for! She sent plenty of pics with Phyllis looking happy & warmed up to their household (unusual for her to relax so quickly). I would most definitely use Liz again to safely & lovingly watch my girl. Highly recommend!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Rockville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 117 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Rockville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Rockville 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 Rockville.
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 Rockville 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 UT 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.
