“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.”
“Hermes had a long stay with Kelly, 17 days! Kelly took such good care of him including tick check and wiping his tear marks due to mild allergies. She sent me pictures and updates on Hermes on regular basis and Hermes was definitely a happy dog under her care and playing with her two lovely kids. I will book Kelly again no doubt! Thank you so much Kelly, Hermes loves all three of you!”
“My dog Tako was extremely well taken care of and I got frequent updates. Shanilka was very easy to communicate with and she was very flexible as my travel plans changed due to the weather. I will absolutely be using her again if I ever need!”
“Diana and her family were amazing! This was our first time leaving our puppy with a sitter from Rover and couldn’t have asked for a sweeter 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!”
“Cal and Kelly were great with our two little ones. They sent pictures and updates daily. We felt safe and happy knowing that they were in great care. Will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Melissa took excellent care of our Teddy! Will definitely use her again for future bookings. Constant updates and photos showed just how much she cares and truly appreciate how Teddy was taken care of!”
“Cindy was awesome. She addressed the initial anxiety of Lightning , made sure he is comfortable, and sent pictures and videos . We will not hesitate having her board Lightning again.”
“It is impossible to explain how amazing Angie was with our dogs. It felt more like a friend watching our dogs with the amount of love and care she provided which showed through all of her many pictures and messages to us. One of our dogs is 15-years-old and while I was nervous leaving her anywhere while we were gone I am thankful I did. Angie even discovered how to easily have her take her daily meds, something we have struggled doing for the past 12 years. A miracle! Our flights were delayed and cancelled causing us to arrive home a day later than expected and Angie took it in stride, being available to watch our dogs until we made it. I could continue for days listing all of the reasons why Angie is the perfect doggie sitter. I have zero complaints in any regard to our experience and I cannot imagine having anyone else watch our dogs in the future.”
“Christopher took excellent care of our boy and provided frequent updates. He even bought a bone for our boy to chew on while he looked after him! I would definitely use again.”
“Thomas took such good care of my dog and updated me with pictures several times a day. He’s very responsive and made drop-off and pick-up easy for my little fur baby.”
“My active pug had a great stay with Colleen and family. I knew he was in great hands and they kept in touch with pics of Vinny and their lab Lily. Lucky to have found them!”
“Great photos of our elderly cat, relaxing, cuddling, and enjoying her pampered visit. Sonya went above and beyond to swing by our house and pick up medicine we'd forgotten. Great peace of mind knowing Maya was in safe, capable hands!”
“Khadija came thru last minute and was able to take care of our little guy. He enjoyed his time there and even played with her cat! She’s very reliable and sent us pictures. Would book her again!”
“I have a great feeling of peace, knowing that my Marcel is being cared for by Elisabeth. She is attentive, loving and gives great care to our dog Marcel. Marcel was right at home with Elisabeth and did not want to leave. It’s important to me that Marcel not be stressed or anxious and she provides that type of calm atmosphere needed. I needed a later time to pick him up and Elizabeth accommodated me and told me not to rush or worry. Marcel was very happy with his long walks! I want to keep her all to myself. She is truly a wonderful person and can be trusted with the care of your special pet.”
“My baby came home healthier and happier than with any past sitter. She’s also exhausted! Evidence of how much love and attention she got from Meri. Thank you Meri for taking such great care of Billie and for the excellent communication!”
“Kamille was absolutely wonderful for my dog Bella. We did a virtual meet and greet & I immediately felt comfortable with having her care for Bella. Though it was a weekend stay, I believe Bella had a great time. Kamille was consistent in sending updates, videos, and was so thorough and responsive. She even gave me a goodie bag with a pic of Bella at the park, that I thought was a nice touch. I’ve been looking for a go-to dog sitter close to me, and I think I just found her!”
“Bianca was a wonderful sitter. I knew the moment I met her that my pooch was in good hands which put me at ease. My dog takes time to warm up to people but he was well acquainted with Bianca so quickly. She provided frequent updates and I could tell my dog felt comfortable with her in photos. When I picked my dog up he was crying when she left and was searching for her. I would absolutely recommend her to look after your pet.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wheaton
Ana took wonderful care of our dog Olive during our recent trip! Olive particularly appreciated her time in Ana’s fenced backyard and we greatly appreciated the updates and photos that Ana regularly provided as well as her willingness to accept our booking request with short notice.
Our pup was very happy in Fiorela’s care. Her home was clean and in a neighborhood designed for great walks. Fiorela was very communicative and sent great pics throughout the stay. Our pup even came home with a cute bandana and homemade treats. We will definitely consider rebooking with her next time we need it.
Really appreciated Stacy, Jeff, and fam taking care of Layla - during a heat wave and fireworks season no less! Really easy to coordinate with, got great updates throughout the stay, and I felt confident that my pup was safe, loved, and well taken care of. Thank you!!
Kelly took such great care of our dog Charles! She sent lots of updates - including both photos and videos every day. She was also able to give him his meds every night, no problem. Charles looked like he was right at home at her house - to the point I wasn't sure he was going to want to come home! Haha. Highly recommend Kelly if you're looking for someone to care for your dog.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Wheaton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Wheaton on Rover is $49.35 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 8,097 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Wheaton. 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.
95% of Wheaton 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 Wheaton 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 Wheaton 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 Wheaton.
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 Wheaton 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.
