“Alex and Daniel were wonderful to work with! They kindly gave us updates on our dog while she was with them and it really seemed like she warmed up to them quickly. We are so greatful to have met them and we look forward to working with them in the future.”
“Chad and his family took wonderful care of my dog while we were traveling internationally. They were provided consistent and detailed updates, letting us know how Luna was doing which made us rest easier while we were away. I would highly recommend for any of your dog sitting and boarding needs, thank you so much for your kind care of our fur babe ☺️!”
“Great experience leaving Oliver with their family. The two of them were conscientious and considerate about understanding Oliver's needs and ensuring that I felt comfortable leaving him in their care while I was out of town. I wouldn't hesitate to leave Oliver with them again!”
“Nadia was a pleasure to work with, prompt responses, professional and courteous, sent pictures of our dog every day, we will definitely book with Nadia in the future!”
“Our dog Hugo has stayed at Haydenn’s apartment a few times and loves it there. He has separation anxiety but always seems happy to hang out with Haydenn, which is a great sign to us! I really liked that before our first booking, Haydenn requested a meet and greet to make sure he was only accepting well-behaved dogs. While we were gone, we got regular updates about Hugo and he came back happy and healthy. :) Haydenn was also very flexible with drop off and pick up. Our flight was delayed coming home and he was very accommodating. We will definitely continue using Haydenn in the future!”
“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.”
“Kamille is the best! Very communicative and flexible. Robi is always happy to see her and that’s a reflection of how loved on he is while in their care.”
“Chloe and her husband were really great sitters..Bella had a wonderful time with them and we got pics and updates of Bella regularly. We are so thankful that Bella got to have fun while we were 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!”
“I had a great experience booking with Amani! Bella came back really happy and clearly loved on — she also was able to drop off Bella which was really helpful for me. I plan on rebooking with Amani again soon! Thanks for taking care of Bella.”
“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!”
“Mckinley watched my kitten Cashew over the July 4 long weekend, and she was awesome! A week before Cashew’s boarding stay started, she proposed a phone call to learn all about his care and any concerns I had. She sent consistent updates with photos/videos of Cashew throughout his stay, and he clearly had a blast playing with her cat!”
“Nicole was amazing! She communicated very well, sent texts with updates, she sent pictures and she answered every call and text. I was nervous for my first boarder experience but she made it SO easy and comfortable! Her energy and aura will make you feel at ease! I will definitely be using her again💯”
“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.”
“Austin and Majid took great care of our dog, Maisie over the holiday. They were amazing at keeping us in the loop, and Maisie came home happy and healthy.”
“Would 100% recommend Christina she made my baby boy feel comfortable and safe. He had such a great time I could tell from all the pictures and especially when I picked him up. He’s only 7 months old, still potty training, a picky eater and this was my first time leaving him with anyone else so I was EXTREMELY worried but Christina took such great care of him, ensured he was comfy at night time and could sleep well and he didn’t miss a meal which is amazing as sometimes he refuses to eat. Thank you so much Christina!”
“Erin took wonderful care of Sully. She comforted him during some loud storms, which I’m very grateful for. To ease my worry, she was very communicative and sent lots of updates & pictures. Would happily rebook her again!”
“Our dog had a great weekend with Coralis! She was happy when she arrived, and happy when we came to pick her up. Coralis kept us updated all weekend with photos and text messages. She met us promptly and was accomodating of last-minute time changes as we were stuck in traffic.”
“Lia was so attentive to my dog Violet! So great to know she was in such good hands, Lia asked great questions and clearly cared to make Violet comfortable and happy during her stay.”
“Mike is an excellent choice to care for your dog. He’s friendly, knowledgeable, and makes sure pups get plenty of walks and attention. He’s also a great option if your dog enjoys companionship—he sometimes hosts a few dogs at a time, which creates a fun, social environment. Another big plus: he’s located near a wooded area that’s perfect for safe, enriching adventures and outdoor exploration. I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable, caring dog sitter. Highly recommend!”

We loved Daniel! It was very easy to communicate with him often on how our dog was doing, and he was flexible and accommodating to our dog’s needs and our travel schedule. Getting daily updates with pictures was very reassuring and our dog seemed super happy! Will definitively book again and strongly recommend him!
Maggie just had her third stay at Rebecca's home. Maggie knows where we are once I drive into Rebecca's neighborhood and she got SO excited, she cried and barked to get out of the car as soon as we pulled up. She ran to Rebecca and smothered her with kisses and wags. Rebecca is a great communicator and I loved the updates she sent, which gave me peace of mind when I was far away. I know she loves my dog and takes such good care of her, and I never have to worry.
Aleyda accepted the booking last minute with no problems. She was great with my dog. She gave us updates every day that we were gone and asked questions on how to make sure my girl was comfortable and that they were providing the best care for her. My dog slept for a good 24 hours after coming home which tells me she had a blast playing at Aleyda’s house lol Will use again. Thanks Aleyda!
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!
I have a 16 year old dog who had just had a hip injury when Joseph watched him. He was conscientious and understanding about the injury, including carrying the dog up and down stairs, He was diligent about medication and watching how much the dog ate. Most importantly, he genuinely cares about dogs. He did a great job taking care of an elderly dog with health problems and reassuring his owner. I’d recommend him to anyone.
Maria took great boarding care of Chiquita while we were out. We know our dog felt super at ease with her, got lots of love and attention, which ease her way to quickly adapt to the environment away from our home; even got to explore around the city and other fun activities! We’ll definitely book Maria again for our future needs!

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 7,941 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Takoma Park. 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 Takoma Park 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 Takoma Park 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 Takoma Park 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 Takoma Park.
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 Takoma Park 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.
