“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!”
“Alejandro took such great care of our old girl. We knew it was a perfect match the moment we walked in for the meet and greet. Our dog was so excited to meet Alejandro and his partner and got to exploring and cuddling immediately. She had no qualms about being dropped off for her staycation (it seemed like she couldn’t wait for us to leave). When we picked her up, it was clear that she missed her time with Alejandro.”
“Cal and Kelly were beyond excellent! They were always quick to respond and sent tons of pictures and videos! We never had any worries about our pup, and it seemed like she had a great time. 10/10 recommendCal and Kelly!”
“Our very social and attention-craving lab mix loved his stay with Natalia and Edward. We were out of town for seven days and received adorable pictures of him playing with their dog, lounging in the living room, or romping with the family. We especially liked the big backyard that allows for built-in outdoor space and the very walkable neighborhood which allowed for going further afield. It was clear they perfectly understood what our Milo needed and were more than happy and ready to accommodate. Relieved we’ve found a go-to Rover we’d be happy to use again. Highly recommend.”
“Chad and Regina are the best and our go to caretakers for our pup when we go out of town. They keep us updated and take great care of him. Highly recommend!”
“Kamille gave our pup a loving home for the week and we are so grateful. The videos she sent us ware the whole so sweet and made us feel so relaxed that he was taken care of. She is also incredibly knowledgeable on collapsing dog cages! Will run to request dog sitting from her and her family in the future!”
“I was nervous about leaving Chilson since we only adopted him 3 months ago and he’s only just begun to feel at home with us. Haydenn had his heart when they first met and Chilson warmed right up! Was happy and content when I picked him up and I hope to ask Haydenn to watch him again next time we’re in DC.”
“Cori is always great with my pup Lily! They have basically been my dog's vacation home all summer with how many trips I had to take XD Cori is always quick to respond, sends pictures, and overall is an amazing pet sitter. She already knows I'll be contacting her for any new stays, thanks again!”
“I’d definitely book with Christian again. She took great care of my dog. Sent pictures everyday and was very attentive during my dog’s stay. Sometimes with other Rover stays, my dog acts differently or shy for a few days. My dog was in perfect spirits after her stay with Christian.”
“I am becoming very concerned every time Lisboa stays with Nicole: I fear my pup wont want to come back home! Thank you Nicole, Coco and family for taking such a good care of my girl!!”
“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.”
“Aashna and Sidhanth were great! They’re were very responsive and accommodating when I had to adjust the schedule. They sent pictures and updates twice a day. Will definitely be using them again!”
“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.”
“2nd time booking with Rodrigo for Watson and again it was a seamless experience. Rodrigo sent regular updates and clearly took great care of Watson. Thanks again Rodrigo and Luna!”
“Joseph was very communicative and shared pictures of our pups with us daily. He followed all directions we gave him and made sure our pups feel at home under his care. I would recommend Joseph as a pet sitter and would entrust him with watching our pups again in the future. Thanks for taking care of our babies!”
“Drea is a great sitter. I always feel confident that my small dog will be well taken care of when she’s with Drea. We get pictures every day and my dog is happy to see Drea at drop off!”
“I've booked with Julia a few times now and always have a great experience. She spends lots of time with my dog and sends lots of photos. She has multiple spaces so she can group dogs by energy level and individualize your dogs experience. I love that my dog gets to socialize with another chihuahua, without being overwhelmed by higher energy dogs. And she has a great yard for the dogs to sniff around.”
“Austin and Majid have watched my dog 3 times and been soooo wonderful. They are loving and considerate of her, and they kept me updated! My dog has some anxiety and behavior challenges, and they were very understanding and patient. Highly recommend!”
“Anne Marie took such great care of Danny, she was patient and kind to him as a senior dog and just loved on him! I will definitely be asking Anne Marie to care for him again when I need it.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Takoma Park
I appreciated that Nadia and Benjamin were like a home away from home for my senior dog Hank. I had unexpected travel for work come up and am so appreciative of this family’s flexibility, willingness to help, and attention to detail. Nadia listened intently to the care instructions and sent lots of pictures. I felt he was in great care - a truly trustworthy caregiver, and in a loving and safe home environment with a big yard. When my return flight moved, they were again flexible and understanding. I always felt that Hank was in the best care.
Danielle has watched Oakley so many times now and is our go to sitter (and one of Oakley's favorite people)! Every time we pick up Oakley he comes back tired from all the fun he had with Danielle and her family. Danielle always provides pictures and updates on all the adventures Oakley and Ernie have while he is with him. Danielle will remain our go to person and we cannot recommend her enough
Tania took wonderful care of my Lucky who is anxious in new environments. He was comfortable, happy and well taken care of. She was flexible and understanding about his anxious behavior which put me at ease so I could enjoy my vacation. I definitely plan to rebook her in the future.
Jesse and family are the BEST! We were able to schedule a meet and greet beforehand where we met them and felt instantly comfortable leaving our baby girl with them. Jesse was proactive with scheduling and details and provided daily updates/pictures/and videos of our jojo with her new bestie Lucy. (Their pup) I cannot recommend Jesse enough and I will be reaching back out whenever we need a sitter for Jolene. A random side note: our girl is a crate hater and they got her sleeping in a crate, no problems, they are miracle workers as well 😆. They treated her as part of their pack and I was so grateful to feel at ease while out of the country!
Terrence was phenomenal. Took my booking last minute and was very professional. He kept me up to date everyday and had no problem with my staffs Koda. Size doesn’t matter to him small dogs, big dogs and anything in between. I will be using his services in the future. My biggest take away was peace of mind. Not once was I worried if everything was ok. Also his response time is impeccable. Literally look no further, this is your dog sitter right here.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Takoma Park on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 7,931 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.
