“Best puppy we've ever had. Pepper looked so happy when we picked him up. I could tell he was treated very well, and Mila spent the entire time with him. She sent pictures and texts with updates. She was so kind and gentle with him, he hesitated when we came to pick him up... like he was making a difficult decision. Luckily, he chose us! We will definitely use Mila when we need services again.”
“Wonderful experience. Highly recommend Jeanne & her husband. Our dogs didn’t want to leave. Jeanne was very responsive to my many texts throughout our trip and sent us photos each day. We will definitely be rebooking for our upcoming trips.”

“Once again, our dog Benny had a great time romping with Rodney's pups. He always comes home exhausted we can tell he was well taken care of. He gets so pumped when we turn down Rodney's street! I'm so happy we have found a reliable sitter and I can rest easy knowing Benny is in good hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of various friends and families cats over the years and have two family cats. I love playing with them and providing a friendly face for them. I have also taken care of friends and families puppies and young dogs as well. I always treat everyone’s animals as if they were my own and strive to make sure they feel safe and loved while they are with me. I’m currently working part time so I have time to watch and attend to your animals any time of day. I am also available for boarding and sittings at houses when needed. I have a fenced yard in a family friendly neighborhood with no other pets in my home. I can crate your dog if needed at my home for boardings and they will have a comfortable space to be in.
“Lisa was fortunately available on short notice, was quick to respond and very kind, putting our concerns to rest (it was our first time using a non-family member to watch our dog). Our energetic dog probably drove her nuts, but Lisa was a champ! Our family loved the daily pics & videos she sent. If we ever need someone to watch our dog, Lisa will be our first call. Thanks Lisa!”
“Ruth and her family were so amazing with my pup! My pup was excited the moment she got there and she was very comfortable with Ruth and her whole family! I needed her to be somewhere where she would have a family to love and play with, and they did not disappoint! Ruth stayed in constant communication with me by sending lots of pictures, and updates on their daily activities. Would definitely recommend and I’ll be rebooking again. Best sitter ever!!”
“I firstly would like to say Thank Leydis. I am very pleased with the great care you took in caring for my daughter Johnell. I felt that Johnell was in safe and loving hands and I was right. Thank you for treating Johnell as if she was your own, your love for animals was evident in how you cared for Johnell. I 100% recommend Leydis to watch and care for your fur babies as she did for my girl. I will be using her services again and again. Thank you”
“Deanna is such a great dog sitter! She and her lovely family took such great care of Romee. Romee had walks, plenty of playtime—just a perfect situation. Knowing Deanna was taking care of Romee allowed me to truly relax and not worry a bit while I was out of town. I’ll be rebooking with Deanna! Absolutely recommend.”
“i had a really good vibe from erin when we talked on phone; I was right she was wonderful, she communicated w/me during the week sending me videos of Betty playin etc She seemed so knowledgeable about cats and training them; she was very reassuring a couple times when i got sad for leaving her. When betty got home i axpected that she may act out by going places not allowed etc. but betty was fine no bad behaviors it was like she nevr left!!! I do believe that is called success and erin reported that there were no issues and that she would sit again if & when needed.”
“Kassandra and her little guy took amazing care of my fur baby, Jax. From the photos, I could tell he was super comfortable and happy with them. She kept me updated every day with pictures and little check-ins about how he was doing, which I really appreciated. I truly can’t thank her enough! If you’re thinking about booking or even just browsing, DO IT. You won’t regret it!”
About: I was raised with all sorts of animals and love to be around them. I have currently 2 big dogs and I’ve been a sitter for 3 years. I have plenty of time within my schedule.

I make sure to keep spaces clean and tidy. I also send pictures to keep you updated
“Amazing. Dawn and her family took great care of our guy for a week while we were out of town. We received periodic updates and pictures. Our golden doodle gets anxiety, however with Dawn's lively house with loving kids, other cats, dogs, rabbits, chicken etc.. Bruno had a whole wonderful crew to hangout with day and night. We will definitely recommend her 100% and board our dog with her going forward. Thanks again for taking such good care of Bruno.”
“We had recently moved to the area and needed someone to care for our dog while we were out of town. Carla sent pictures every day and really treated our dog like her own. Carla’s care and communication are top notch. We are so lucky to have found her!”
About: I've cared for dogs my entire life as an owner. Ive had small dogs, terriers, and their strong will and playfulness to large dogs, ie German Shepard, and their willfulness and loyalty. I love them all and understand how to build trust with a pet. Ive also become a cat owner to tow boys bringing our home pack to 2 dogs and 2 cats. Currently I have a flexible schedule for drop ins during the day or evening. I am glad to feed them, play, and take out for breaks. Available any day except Sundays. Our home has invisible fence and our dogs are trained to remain in the years. We have also had fenced yards in the past. I can and do walk smaller dogs.
“Our girls were treated so well!! Updates with photos/videos everyday. They always looked very happy and comfortable. They almost seemed like they didn't want to come back with us for a second!😆😆”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Sherwood is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $56 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,059 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Sherwood. 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.
94% of sitters in Sherwood 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 Sherwood home-away-from-home, 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 Sherwood.
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 Sherwood 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 , 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 .
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.
