“Jackelyn always takes care of my 2 babies! My frenchies have some medical needs and I completely trust Jackelyn to take care of them and communicate with me if she has any questions or issues. Extremely dependable and you will be able to sleep easy knowing your pets are being well loved.”
“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 was able to take my dad’s two dogs at a moment’s notice due to health issues. One was extremely old and struggled in the situation, perhaps separation anxiety. We ended deciding to euthanize him upon picking up and felt really bad about putting Shaun in that situation, he is such a kind person and did everything he could to provide comfort and care. I couldn’t have asked for anything more and he went above and beyond. Thank you!”
“Bonnie is excellent on all levels- she responded immediately for all correspondence; she was very accommodating and flexible since we didn’t truly set our times until we got to town. She told us to not worry if we decided to spend more time in Zion. It’s clear she loves her job and we felt 100% comfortable leaving our Maggie who is usually with family with her. She sent photos throughout the day. From start to finish, Bonnie was a joy.”
“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!!”
“Chandra was amazing with my pup! She and her husband treated him like their own! She kept me updated with pictures and messages through out his stay! I’ll definitely leave him with them again in the future!”
“Rebecca is awesome. We have used her several times to watch our Pup. Everytime he comes home happy and in great spirits. You can tell he has been well taken care of. Rebecca is a great communicator and responds quickly to all messages. We needed some adjustments and Rebecca went above and beyond to help us. She has been awesome at sending us updates on our puppy as well as sending pictures so we are not missing him too much. I highly recommend her services.”
“Wow! What a great experience. We were vacationing in the area and there were many activities we planned that weren’t dog friendly. Riley is a puppy and we were concerned about leaving him for the first time. Cindy was able to take Riley in to her home and she clearly is set up to care for the dogs she takes on. She has plenty of space, kennels, and dog beds for those she cares for. She kept in touch and sent plenty of pics so we didn’t worry about how he was doing. Wr could tell he was having a great time. If you’re in the area, Cindy is reliable, flexible and great with dogs. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again when I’m in town next.”
“It was my first time leaving my pup with someone over night. I was very nervous but I honestly could not have picked a better sitter. Mishell was incredible and sent me photos and updates every day. I 100% plan on booking with her in the future.”
“They were so good to our little puppy for the week we were out of town. Sent pictures and reassured us he was doing well. One of the sweet kids told me when we picked him up “I made sure to give him lots of hugs and kisses” so I know we left him with the right family!”
“Very pleasant experience, great communication during our dogs’ stay and our dogs were happy and received a lot of attention from the family throughout their stay. Will definitely book again on our next trip”
“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.”
“Amy watched my puppy last minute and did a phenomenal job! She took extra care for all her puppy needs and was a great communicator. She was very accommodating. I highly recommend her.”
“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.”
“Marlon and Luna are amazing! They took great care of Cody and Blue. This was the first time ever boarding our dogs as they usually took trips with us. I was really nervous about it but they were quick to set all my nerves at ease. They are very accommodating to answer your questions and address your concerns. Drop off and pick up is a breeze. Very clean and friendly environment. One of our dog had some medical issues and they were very mindful of his needs. Our dogs came home happy and healthy and seemed like they had a great time. We will definitely be using their dog boarding services again. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants the best care for their fur babies! Thank you, Marlon and Luna! We appreciate you both! ☺️❤️”
“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!”
“Jennifer was super sweet! She took great care of our dog when we were out. She was also very flexible and helpful when we needed to pick him up and drop him back off. Highly recommend and we would definitely go back to her!”

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!

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 October 2026, there are 122 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Rockville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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.
