“We always love booking with Alex and Daniel! They provide us with frequent updates and are incredibly responsive. Our dog seems like she is right at home at their place.”
“Natalia and Edward were wonderful with my dog, Olly! From the start, they were kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with, which made me feel completely comfortable leaving Olly in their care. Throughout the week, they sent me regular updates and lots of cute pictures, which I really appreciated, it was so nice to see how happy he looked. They clearly took great care of him and made sure he got plenty of attention and love. When I picked him up, he was calm, content, and clearly had a great time. I’m so grateful for the care they gave him and would absolutely book with them again. Highly recommend Natalia and Edward to anyone looking for reliable, caring sitters!”
“Our pup stayed with Chad and his wife for two weeks while we visited family. It went absolutely smoothly with no issues. We will definitely reach out to Chad the next time we go away.”
“With a senior dog, we do get nervous about leaving mango new places. I would say within five minutes of the meet and greet it was clear that Shanilka and her husband would be taking great care of him. They asked all the right questions and during our stay sent regular updates to make sure we knew he was in good hands. Would definitely use again!”
“We’ve been using Nadia’s dog sitting services repeatedly and couldn’t be happier. Our dog is always well cared for, and Nadia goes above and beyond when it comes to communication and accommodating our needs. We’ll continue booking with her and recommend her without hesitation.”
“Aashna and Sidanth took excellent care of our dog. Communication was fantastic – they sent updates and photos twice a day. We felt very comfortable leaving him with them and would definitely rebook.”
“Cal and Kelly are amazing sitters. Bodie had a great time at their place. Lots of snuggling and playing with their two friendly dogs. We received lots of pictures and videos so always knew he was doing great. We will definitely use them again.”
“My fur baby has a great time every time I leave him with Kamille. His last stay with her was short and I could tell when I picked him up he was not ready to leave her and his new friends. ❤️”
“Very responsive and attentive to my dog—I also appreciate that Haydenn requires meet and greets before accepting the booking. I would definitely book again!”
“Derek is an exceptional sitter and certified dog whisperer! My pup Charlie immediately felt at home with him and his own furry friend Terp! He sent me frequent but not pestering updates and check in photos, so I never felt I had to worry about anything. Would recommend and book again!”
“Mickinley was absolutely great. She was very kind, polite, and full of positive energy. She was also incredibly flexible and willing to adjust to my changing schedule, which I really appreciated. Before the booking, we scheduled a meet-and-greet, and she was happy to come to my home to meet Flash and start building a bond with him. While I was away, she took wonderful care of him and regularly sent me photos and updates, which gave me real peace of mind knowing he was happy and doing well. I would definitely recommend McKinley to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable to look after their pup. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”

“The entire stay was smooth and enjoyable. Chloe made sure to update me during zula’s stay by sending videos and pictures. Drop off and pick up both also went smoothly. Definitely recommend this stay!”
“Abigail did a great job caring for my dog over the 4th of July weekend. I was able to relax knowing my dog was in good hands. As a bonus my pup had a great time playing with sweet Stella. Abigail was easy to coordinate with, gave regular updates and also was very knowledgeable about dog play styles/dog behavior. Highly recommend!”
“Christian was awesome with Hazel! She sent multiple pictures and very quick to respond. She was very accommodating when we needed to change the pick up time. Great experience!”

She sent several updates with lots of photos of our puppy playing with her kids, on walks, and even learning new tricks. So adorable… and comforting! Will definitely book with Diana again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Silver Spring
Tiffany was absolutely amazing and incredibly kind to our furry son, Ziggy. He bonded with her so quickly that I honestly wondered if he’d even want to come home. He was so happy, relaxed, and well cared for the entire time. Tiffany’s gentle energy and attention made us feel completely at ease. Ziggy adored her, and because of the wonderful experience he had, Tiffany will definitely be his permanent sitter. We’re so grateful to have found someone who treats him like family.
Derek and his wife provided excellent care for my elderly pitbull while I traveled abroad. They provided regular communication and photos and really showed love and concern for my pup. He had incontinence issues and they swiftly informed me, kept me apprised of any potential medical issues, purchased doggie diapers (which I reimbursed) and handed all of it professionally and with the utmost care. I was relieved that I did not have to worry about my dog while I was so far away and I knew he was in good, experienced hands.
Mega and Jared we're great! Lila really seemed to enjoy her stay with them. She was surprisingly not all that thrilled to see us when she was brought home! Mega sent lots of pictures as well as regular updates. Lila is looking forward to hanging out with then again soon!
Madeleine helped me out in a pinch when my sitter canceled on me less than 24 hours before I was set to go out of town. She was so understanding, accommodating, and warm, and my dog clearly enjoyed spending the week with her. Edie was very content and happy in all of the photo updates as well as when I went to pick her up at the end of the stay. I l’m so grateful to Madeleine for taking good care of my pup and I hope to book with her again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Silver Spring on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 7,947 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Silver Spring. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover 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.
94% of Silver Spring sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Silver Spring 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 Silver Spring 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 Silver Spring.
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 Silver Spring 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.
