“You get what you pay for! We did not expect our puppy to have continued training or even learn new things while we were gone but he did! I did not expect to receive pictures, updates and videos but we did! Jackelyn did all this and more! Highly recommend. She calmed my nerves about leaving our puppy and even gave me some tips and tricks for our little handful.”
“Karli is professional, easy to work with, responsive, and caring. Our dog doesn’t like to be boarded usually which is why we brought him along on our Zion trip. But he quickly adjusted and enjoyed his time with Karli and family.”
“Shaun watched our two pups for a long weekend and we were very happy with him, and so were my pups. He was very responsive, sent daily emails and photos, and really made our pups welcome in his home. He won over our shy female which made all of us very happy. We will definitely contact Shaun as a sitter in the future.”
“Bonnie was wonderful with my dog! She was sweet and kind. She sent me updates and pictures daily, which I loved! Then I knew my little one was having fun and doing great! I’d recommend her and I’d take my dog their again. Thanks again! ???”
“Absolutely incredible! I cannot recommend Conrad highly enough, especially for multi-dog households. Leaving our three pups Reggie, Remi, & Billy is always so hard to do. This was my first time using Rover so i was nervous of the unknown, but after reviewing Conrads profile I had such a good feeling about him. He sure did handle our energetic trio with complete professionalism and so much love. It was clear from the daily photos and detailed updates that they weren't just supervised, but truly enjoyed. Communication was prompt, and we got hilarious pictures that showed how happy and relaxed the dogs were throughout their stay. They truly treated our dogs like family. If you are looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring sitter for your dog (or three!), look no further. We will definitely be rebooking again with Conrad!!”
“Holly provided wonderful care for Watson. She sent me pictures and has great communication. It put my mind at ease while being away and I am very appreciative of the care he received.”
“Very attentive to my boy Maximus. Sent me videos and pictures and I loved that he was walked everyday! I would definitely use her services again. Max was happy to have so much attention!”
“12 stars if I could!! I dropped off my dogs in a bit of a panic, and they were nothing short of amazing. One of my pups had an accident in the car on the way over, and as soon as we arrived, they had cleanup supplies ready—total lifesavers! Not only were my dogs well taken care of, but I was blown away at pickup when I learned they even got a little Easter dinner. Talk about above and beyond! They really helped ease my anxiety about leaving the dogs on such short notice. I’ll absolutely be bringing my other pups here in the future. Thank you for treating them like your own!”
“Brody always has the best time with Cindy! We were gone for an extended period of time and we never once worried about our pup. We know he’s always in the best care!”
“Amy took such great care of our dog for over a week. Our dog has abundant energy and it was so good he could get good exercise playing with her dog Bronx in their spacious back yard. We felt so comfortable that he was in good hands and their family showed such love and attention to our dog. Amy kept us up to date and sent lots of videos . We would recommend her to others!”
“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.”
“Amazing experience! I was so not prepared well and they handled everything like true professionals! The kids are so sweet and made the time for the dogs fun and memorable I’m sure!”
“Liz provided visual instructions which helped in locating her home. We appreciate taking our pup on short notice and close proximity to Zion national park. Liz was communicative and provided photos. My Nala seemed to have a wonderful time and was well taken care of. Thank you, Liz!”
“The Bestest Family & Sitters around! She is so thoughtful, seems me adorable pics of my doggie. Beam our 🐕 doggie, loves her and muchly. We appreciate her great care of our best buddy 🐶 and pal!”
“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.”

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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 127 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.
