“Jacquline was very efficient with feedback and she sent pictures of bailey enjoying her time with Jacquline family. Jacquline is kind and loves animals. She and her daughter was the perfect match for bailey while I was on vacation. I would definitely work with Jacquline again.🥰🥰”
“Bria was Amazing! She was able to assist us with an emergency reservation. Bria’s energy is friendly & reassuring. She provided daily updates about Rocki and was very responsive. We would definitely recommend Bria’s services! We look forward to Rocki’s next adventure with Bria! 🤗💖”
“Ms.Tanisha was amazing with my girl Bella! She recognized that Bella gets a bit anxious when away from me and allowed her time to get adjusted with her household. She sent a bunch of pictures, updates, and fast replies. If Bella had to stay away from home again I would choose her! Bella was definitely in good hands :)”
“Brittany and Shane were great sitters for our dog Rowan! They sent daily updates with photos and treated him like one of their own dogs. Rowan seemed to get along and enjoy playing with their dogs too! They have a large fenced in backyard and plenty of space for the dogs to play. We know Rowan is excited to go back to stay with Brittany and Shane again!”
“Our pup always has a great time with Patricia and her family. We think of it as a little vacation for her while we're away, which helps alleviate our own anxiety. Our dog is always excited to see us when we pick her up, but she never seems like she's ready to leave. She doesn't do well in unusual situations, so it's very reassuring to know that she feels comfortable and at ease even when we're not around.”
“I cannot recommend Natalia enough! I was in a last-minute bind before my graduation and had to leave town for four days with no plans in place for my sweet (but very energetic and feisty!) Pomeranian, Brownie. As soon as Natalia reached out and I met her, I immediately felt at ease. She was confident, knowledgeable, and had a thoughtful plan for introducing Brownie to her other dogs and helping everyone adjust comfortably. Throughout Brownie's stay, Natalia sent so many photos and updates that I quickly stopped worrying and was able to focus on my graduation and trip. The pictures made me laugh, and it was obvious that Brownie was having a great time and receiving lots of love and attention. Her home is incredibly pet-friendly, welcoming, and clearly a place where dogs are treated like family. Natalia is kind, patient, and genuinely cares about the pets in her care. She even sent Brownie home with one of his favorite items because he loved it so much, which was such a thoughtful gesture. Finding someone you trust with your fur baby can be difficult, but Natalia exceeded every expectation. I'm so grateful she responded to my request, and I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Brownie came home happy, loved, and well cared for. She is truly a gem! 🐾❤️ Thank you, Natalia!”
“So grateful for the care she provided our girl Quinn, who is a ball of energy, especially with other dogs. She kept me updated and treated my girl like the diva she is. I would recommend her and will use her for future bookings”
“Karla did an awesome job boarding our 2 cats for the weekend. She was responsive and provided frequent updates and we could tell our cats were getting lots of love and attention from the photos she provided. Highly recommend for boarding!”
“MeiMei’s stay with Michelle was above and beyond. Michelle was very on top of applying medication and made sure Meimei had tons of attention and snuggle. My picky eater seemed to enjoy eating during her stay. Would definitely book again with Michelle!”
“Once again, Mrs. Sherie's care for Cyrus was nothing short of exceptional! She went above and beyond to make sure Cyrus felt at home. I was able to enjoy my vacation in peace knowing Cyrus was being well take care of. He looked so happy in each picture and video she sent. Mrs. Sherie will be my 1st choice to take care of Cyrus as she is an amazing!”
“Bo and I feel so fortunate to have found Felice! We used her for the first time this past weekend. I was nervous because Bo has the worse separation anxiety and would literally stop eating while he is away from me. But as soon as we met Felice I could tell he liked her and her home. Well, Felice took such great care of him that he finished the food I sent with him! (Which is a first!!!) Felice kept me updated with lots of pictures of him and he looked very comfortable and HAPPY! He came home vibrant and content! I could tell he really enjoyed his stay in her home! I already told Felice I plan to use her again.”
“Our pup spent one night with Jaicy last winter and we had a great experience. We quickly booked Jaicy for a much longer stay this spring. As before, Jaicy asked questions about our dog’s routines and needs and was very communicative during the entire week. She sent daily updates, pictures, and videos. We knew our pup was sad when we left, but we could tell she quickly adjusted and was having a wonderful time playing with Jaicy’s dog. As with our last stay, we were reassured by the welcoming home and environment that Jaicy and her family offered; they truly treated our dog like one of their own, showing her lots of affection. Leaving our dog for a week was tough, but we honestly didn’t worry about her while we were gone. We will absolutely board with Jaicy again and cannot recommend her enough.”
“Absolutely wonderful experience that Star had with Eli. Eli did an amazing job taking care of Star and we will return to him every time we are in need of a sitter for our dog. Thank you Eli!”
“Kristin is amazing. Her house is set up great for boarding and she really takes care to learn all the uniqueness of each pet. You can tell from the moment you meet her how passionate she is about animals. Book if you get the chance.”
“Erika was so amazingly kind and patient. My pup felt so loved and happy as shown by his happy trot every time we arrived. We were very pleased with and blessed by Toby's stay with Erika and her lovely family.”
“Victor has watched our pup several times and has always been dependable, caring and attentive. We receive daily updates and pictures. Our dog definitely has a great time at Victor’s!”

I would give 10 stars if I could! Qingbo was absolutely wonderful and treated our pup so well in our absence. She sent updates, videos and photos regularly, which helped me since I’d never left our pup with anyone before. I can’t say enough great things about Qingbo, if you’re considering booking her, she’s amazing!
Malik was very friendly and took great care of Teddy during his stay. I especially appreciated his excellent communication! He was very responsive, answered all my questions throughout the booking process, and kept me updated with pictures and messages during Teddy's stay. Teddy seemed happy and comfortable with him when I picked him up. I highly recommend Malik and will definitely use his services again! 🐾
I truly enjoyed meeting and having Lorna to care for my little fur-baby this past weekend. She is kind and selfless. She welcomed Tori into her home, kept in touch with me throughout the day with pictures and notes of how she was doing. I will definitely book Lorna again.
I am the owner of a bichon frise – Shih Tzu mix puppy who is quite anxious and quite attached to my husband and me. We previously had only left him with family members when we traveled. That situation however was no longer feasible. So I became the anxious one looking for a dog sitter who would make my beloved pooch, feel comfortable. Jacqueline was the answer to my prayers. She only boards one dog at a time. She has a job that allows her to work from home. And she is calm, kind, and patient. Jacqueline and I communicated easily and she sent me photographs of my pooch every day that I was traveling. I really didn't worry about him a bit after the first morning – – I knew he was comfortable and safe. What more can you ask? I'm very happy to have found Jacqueline.
Kirti and her family were amazing sitters for my dog Joy! They went above and beyond and treated her like their own. Their dog Sunshine was also a wonderful companion for Joy. I look forward to having Joy stay with them again in the future and am grateful to have found such a loving and caring family for her to stay with when I travel. Their love for dogs is genuine and they have set up their home to meet every comfort for Sunshine and any Rover dogs they host.
Alexis took great care of our Bella. It was a late request but we are so glad it worked out for her to watch Bella. She was shared photos, asked questions, and was very responsive. We will certainly take Bella to her again when we need her services. We highly recommend her!
I truly can’t say enough great things about this experience! From the very beginning, she was warm, attentive, and incredibly compassionate—it was clear that caring for animals isn’t just something she does, it’s something she genuinely loves. Leaving Ralph can sometimes be a little nerve-wracking, but she immediately put me at ease and made me feel completely confident that he was in the best hands. Her communication was outstanding—she kept me consistently updated with thoughtful messages, pictures, and little check-ins that really meant a lot. I loved being able to see Ralph happy, relaxed, and fully himself while I was away. It gave me such peace of mind. What stood out most was how engaged she was with him. Ralph got plenty of playtime, attention, and exercise, and it showed—he came back happy, well cared for, and clearly loved on. She didn’t just “watch” him, she truly cared for him like he was her own. I would 1000% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet with genuine care, attention, and love. Ralph and I are both so grateful!
Tiffany is amazing!! I went on a family vacation and Tiffany updated me with plenty of pictures and videos of my baby Rocky. Rocky can be very selective of who he likes and he fell right in love with her haha! He was definitely spoiled and that’s okay with me! Will be booking again. 10/10

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Savage is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $72 per night. 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.

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Savage can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Savage 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 Savage.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Savage. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Savage 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 MD 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
