“I am sooooo happy that I found Ashley! She's amazing with Gracie and I am fully at ease while traveling knowing that she is being well taken care of. She keeps me updated daily and I so appreciate that she does it without me having to ask. Ashley is now my go-to sitter!!”
“Michelle is amazing! I'm always anxious about leaving my fur babies but Michelle put my mind at ease! She kept me informed and provided my Bella with so much love and attention!! I'd give 10 stars if I could”
“Leaving our Shichon, Shipley, for three weeks while we traveled internationally was something we were very nervous about. It was our first time using a pet sitter, and because Shipley has some anxiety, we worried about how he would adjust. Shane and Brittany completely exceeded our expectations! From the very beginning, they made us feel at ease by sending regular updates with photos and videos. It was such a relief to see Shipley happy, relaxed, and having so much fun. He bonded with their entire family and loved playing with their dogs. Seeing him so comfortable made our trip much more enjoyable because we knew he was in the best hands. We were so impressed with the care, love, and attention they gave him that we’ve already booked them to watch Shipley again when we travel in August. We honestly can’t imagine using another pet sitter. If we ever have to, they’ll have some very big shoes to fill because Shane and Brittany have set the bar incredibly high. Thank you, Shane and Brittany, for taking such wonderful care of our sweet boy. We are so grateful and highly recommend you to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and exceptional pet sitters!”
“Shuling always makes me feel so much better about leaving my needy dog, manny, when I go for vacation. He always comes back with a huge smile and has so much fun playing with her dog, Bear. Thank you so much, Shuling!!”
“Remunalila was an awesome dog sitter! She looked after both of our senior ladies, provided updates and made sure they were comfortable and happy. Would absolutely rebook her in the future!”
“This was the first time Ginger boarded with James and we couldn’t be happier with how it went. We received detailed notes, photos and videos of our girl while we were away. He was able to accommodate the special chicken and rice diet and medications easily. When the weather turned especially cold, James even put a cozy sweater on Ginger. Ginger was clearly happy, well cared for and got along well with Xena and Rogue too.”
“Tiffany is a kind, responsible, and very thoughtful sitter. Great communication before and during the stay. I appreciate the lengths she went to in order to ensure that my pups were taken care of. Truly went above and beyond!”
“Ended up needing a last minute sitter and Liz & Jeff were able to accommodate. Had great communication leading up to a meet and greet with our girl and their resident pups, and a few days later dropped off Goose for her stay. Super responsive, gave great updates and photos and videos galore for my girl. Knowledge with dogs overall and their interactions with people and animals was great! Their family and resident dogs were exactly what I’d want for someone watching my own while I’m away. Will definitely become a return client😊”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our pup in Carla's home! Our dog was so well cared for, and Carla sent daily updates with pictures and videos. Her dog was incredibly sweet and got along great with ours. She did a great job balancing exercise with being mindful of our older dog's past surgeries and individual needs. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!”
“What can I say?!? Candace is a phenomenal dog sitter and my pup enjoyed getting pampered and taking walks. Look no further, Candace is amazing! She will send you pictures/updates and spend lots of time with your pet.”
“Hester was absolutely wonderful! Sent us updates on our boy while we were out of the country and shared about all the fun he was having. Would definitely rebook and recommend!!”
“We have had Sari watch Rusty twice now and she has done an amazing job! It was a weight off of my shoulders going into the second time because I knew he'd be well taken care of and have a great time with her. She does incredible long walks and even took him to a park on the water, which was a new experience for him! I cannot recommend Sari enough.”
“Becca was wonderful. We just adopted our dog 2 months prior to our trip and this was our first time leaving her with anyone. We were really nervous, but Becca's natural love for dogs put us right at ease; she was so kind and patient with our dog. She sent us daily updates and pictures - my daughter loved it! Knowing that our dog was so well cared for, really allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation!”
“I was left in a bind, and I messaged Kelly and George for the first time the night before we left for vacation. I got a response almost immediately saying they were able to watch our Darcy girl. They were super friendly, communication was excellent, and I received pictures and videos of Darcy all throughout her stay. I definitely recommend Kelly and George, and we’ll be using them again in the future!”
“Cristhian did a great job watching my dog Nami for a day. I have a lot of anxiety about leaving her and he sent plenty of photos as requested. He kept me updated on her food/bathroom habits which was much appreciated. Thank you!”
“Katie and her husband Anthony were the perfect hosts for our Sadie girl! She had so much fun and many cuddles (her favorite). Katie was very responsive, easy to book with and schedule a meet & greet, and sent us updates every day. We definitely plan to have her care for Sadie again!”
“So grateful for Julianna she watched my 10 week old puppy which I don’t know where to begin our puppy usually we just clean to my daughter but went to Julianna with ease she was very thorough and asked anything. If there was anything that we forgot that we could message her. She sent pictures and updates and text my daughter the whole time yes glad I found her it was a little different circumstances with a 10 week old puppy because he wasn’t fully vaccinated and could not be around any other dogs so she work out perfectly for us definitely will use again in the future”
“Had such a great experience! She made me feel comfortable by arranging a meeting with my dog beforehand and answered all of my questions. Also sent a lot of pictures and updates which was helpful as it was out first time using the app. Very friendly, knowledge and went above and beyond. Will use again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Yorktown
Jasmine was more than accommodating with my dog Yumi and was extremely flexible. I had a 5 hour delay on my return flight and Jasmine remained professional and attentive to my dog Yumi and accommodated my unfortunate circumstances. If you’re looking for a responsible dog sitter whose also flexible look no further than Jasmine.
Elizabeth was wonderful with our pups Penny and Reggie, and she was great with communicating to us how their days went and how they were settling in, etc. She also sent tons of pictures and you can tell from the pictures that the puppers were having the times of their little lives! We’ll definitely be repeat visitors!!
Brittany was absolutely phenomenal with our sweet ole lady Maple! She sent pictures and took such great care of her. She even accommodated us an extra night last minute due to our cruise getting back late. She is wonderful and I highly recommend her! Maple didn't want to leave! 🤣
Finn now has 2 new human friends and 2 new dog friends! Tanya and John were WONDERFUL to Finn and kept us updated daily with detailed notes and videos. It is so comforting to know that Finn is being well taken care of (and having a good time) when we are away. Highly recommend.
We had such a great experience! She took amazing care of Kodak and made sure he felt safe, comfortable, and loved while we were away. She sent us lots of pictures, and he looked so happy in every one! He also got along wonderfully with her family, which made us feel even more at ease. Her communication was great throughout his stay, and we were extremely pleased with the care she gave him. We would absolutely trust her with Kodak again and highly recommend her!
James is always wonderful with my girls! He is easy to work with, offers super convenient extras like pick up and drop off, and treats them like family. I appreciate the thorough and excellent communication as well as the amazing photos he sends while they are in his care. They are not the easiest dogs, but he acts like they are and they love him. I never worry when I know James is taking care of them.
Top notch pet care for my old boy! I got daily updates including pictures and videos showing that she not only cared for my dog but loved my dog. I was incredibly nervous to leave my dog due to his age but he s eyed to fall right into a home routine from day one with her. Knowing at his age he was relaxed and happy was beyond a godsend! Trust this pet sitter she is a gem!
Lanese was absolutely amazing. She was responsive, flexible, and kept me informed every step of the way, which gave me real peace of mind. This was my first time using Rover, and she made it such a great experience. She took great care of Bluchi making sure he felt safe, comfortable, and loved. I really appreciated all the updates and pictures too. Lanese is truly a beautiful person and already feels like family. I would definitely book with her again. Five stars all around highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Yorktown is $48 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $72 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Yorktown 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 Yorktown 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 Yorktown.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Yorktown. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Yorktown 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
