Kevin and his partner took great care of our dog, Ozzy. We got nice pics everyday, so we could see how he was doing. They took Ozzy on walks, and the communication was excellent. The whole process was smooth and easy. I highly recommend Kevin.

My 2 year old Springer Spaniel Boxer mix, Edie, had a wonderful time with Jana and her family! When I normally leave Edie at her doggy daycare to travel, she barely eats and seems anxious when I come to pick her up. Not the case this time! Edie ate all the food I had packed for her along with all the treats! She loved running around and puppy style wrestling with Hazel! Jana gave me updates twice a day with pictures and videos of the ladies playing. I truly do believe that Edie had a dog vacay with Hazel and Jana!

Einstein have been going to Matt's for almost 10 years so obviously we love Matt! We recently just adopted a second dog who is a 7 months old puppy and we took her to Matt for the first time. He was so awesome and patient with her even though she's not potty trained and is still learning her social skills. When we first dropped her off, she was very timid but about an hour in we got a video from Matt. She was having a blast! All of our dogs loves Matt and we trust him completely with our fur babies!

My quirky pup, Poppy, had a wonderful time staying with Mimi over the weekend. Mimi was very communicative and provided lots of updates, pics, and videos. Poppy is leash reactive and not the most social dog, but Mimi is very experienced with nervous or anxious dogs and quickly brought Poppy out of her shell. Poppy is already looking forward to her next stay!

Greg was a phenomenal sitter to my best friend! He sent daily updates, pictures, and clearly devoted a lot of 1 on 1 time with my dog throughout his stay. He was quick to communicate and my dog fell in love with him immediately. I would highly recommend Greg and will absolutely request him in the future without hesitation.

I’ve booked them several times for two dogs. I could tell my fur babies get a lot of love and affection in their home (e.g., cuddling on the sofa together). They are highly responsive, friendly, stay connected with photos, and accommodating. I’m so glad l have a reliable sitter close to me. I can always count on them if they are available.

Maria went above and beyond in every possible way to care for our dog, Biscuit. She did a thorough meet and greet and read through all of my lengthy instructions for him to ensure she understood his quirks and felt confident going into his stay. She sent thorough updates with photos throughout his stay, and he honestly looked so calm, happy and at peace with her. Her love for dogs and attention to detail make her the perfect pet sitter. We will certainly be booking with Maria again!

Thuy and her family were absolutely wonderful with our 8-week-old kitten, Nova. From the start they treated Nova like part of their family — gentle, attentive, and full of affection. We received consistent, thoughtful updates while traveling, which put us completely at ease during our first time leaving Nova with anyone. Thuy showed genuine love and care, and we trust her and her boys fully. Thank you for the outstanding support and kindness — we will definitely book with Thuy again. Highly recommend Thuy and her family for you and your pet family. Thank you so much again.

Eileen was amazing with our little Charlie! This was our first time leaving her to travel since we lost her big brother last year, so we were anxious to leave her. Turns out we had nothing to worry about! She ate regularly thanks to Eileen taking time to make her comfortable and hand-feed her, and we received tonssss of photos and videos so we could see how well she was doing. By the end of our trip, we were a little worried she wouldn’t want to come home with how spoiled she was at Eileen’s house! 😂 1000/10 recommend, we will definitely be rebooking for our next trip!

Our older dog can be anxious when she's outside of her routine, but Jennie's calm demeanor helped her to feel comfortable. Jennie's home is also very relaxing and the neighborhood is perfect for walks throughout the day. We look forward to booking Jennie's services again soon!

Micaela was a wonderful sitter for our beloved Frenchie! Her daily updates and photos showed a very happy puppy enjoying walks and play, and her home was clean and very welcoming. I really appreciated her flexibility with a later pick up time due to a delayed flight. I would definitely recommend Micaela, and would be happy having Hugo stay with her again. Thanks!

Elvis had a great time with Matt over a long holiday weekend trip - I got plenty of photos and videos of him hanging out with other pups and getting as many rubs as possible. Thanks for taking such great care of Elvis while I was away and for the updates - it was a relief to know he was having a blast!

What Is Seattle Dog Boarding Like On Rover?

Worried about your dog’s comfort while you’re away? Rover helps you choose from over 3,200 dog boarding environments hosted by vetted and reviewed Seattle sitters. Turn your dog’s stay into a canine vacation in popular Seattle dog-friendly neighborhoods like Queen Anne, Fremont, Capitol Hill, or West Seattle. Rover makes it easy to find affordable dog boarding in Seattle and surrounding areas like Bellevue, Redmond, Kent, Tacoma, or Bothell. The cost of dog boarding in Seattle, WA, ranges from $65 to $70 per night.

Convenience to SeaTac

Travelers flying through Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SeaTac) can choose from 160+ dog boarding locations within 15 miles. Some sitters may also meet you at the airport for an additional fee.

Tailored Dog Boarding Options in Seattle

  • Solo dog care: 1,682 sitters offer one-on-one attention for anxious pups
  • Fenced yards: 1,378 sitters have outdoor play areas for high-energy pups
  • Boarding + daycare: 1,937 sitters offer daycare for playful dogs
  • Grooming & bathing: 710 sitters provide light grooming for long-term stays
  • Multi-pet boarding: 1,536 sitters welcome multiple dogs or cats
Unlike traditional kennels that follow a strict group schedule, dog boarding through Rover is customizable to your dog’s emotional needs. For most sitters, services such as additional walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention are included in their daily rate.

A Day In the Life for a Rover Pup

Dog boarding with an active Star Sitter on Rover will follow the sitter’s schedule and set routine, which may look like:
  • Morning neighborhood walk, such as a stroll around Green Lake or Belltown waterfront
  • Mid-day supervised yard time and rest
  • Afternoon enrichment outing or indoor play
  • Potty walk and nighttime winddown
When booking, factor in your dog’s habits and needs to your sitter’s location. Does your dog need off-leash playtime? A sitter who lives in the U District may visit Magnuson Park Off-Leash Area. Well-socialized dogs may enjoy staying with sitters who live by dog-friendly outdoor patios, like Bark!Espresso, a dog-themed café with fun treats for pups, or The Barking Dog Alehouse in Ballard.
Need more routine stability? If your pup thrives on routine, Seattle house sitting services may be a better choice. For about $75 per night, a Seattle sitter will stay in your home and follows your care instructions.
