“Ms. Cynthia was very attentive to Uno. She was very good at keeping us updated with his activities and took daily photos of him. She made sure he was comfortable and safe knowing he's a senior dog with some with growing blindness especially with other dogs. We felt at ease and that he was in good hands as we were away.”
“Jael was a great Rover find and we will definitely book her for future stays! We received regular updates and photos while we were gone. Gus got lots of attention from Jael and her family (as seen in photos). We are happy to have found a new Rover home for Gus. Thank you Jael and family!”
“Jennifer was really kind and upfront about caring for my dogs who have some anxiety. She has such knowledge and skill she could manage them with aplomb and it allows me to feel comfortable leaving them with her.”
“Aarika was very responsive, polite and flexible. I felt that she was easily accessible. My pup was very happy and clearly well taken care of. It was clear to me that she treated him as if he was her own and that’s exactly what I’m looking for in a Dog Sitter . I almost don’t want to leave her a good review because I want to keep her services all to myself! Haha .”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Brianna! She boarded our two dogs for several days and went above and beyond in every way. She sent frequent update photos, which gave us so much peace of mind, and was incredibly attentive to all of their needs. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. Brianna was accommodating, reliable, and genuinely caring. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional dog care!”
“We highly recommend Lisa as a pet sitter! She took care of our dog, Mr. Beckett while we were out of town. Not only did she provide excellent care for Mr. Beckett, but she also went above and beyond to ensure he felt loved and comfortable while we were away. We enjoyed the daily texts and pictures showing us he was safe and having a great time. Our nervousness about leaving Mr. Beckett for the first time was greatly reduced after we saw how well he was doing with her. Lisa would take him and her dog Ollie on daily adventures at the local parks. He enjoyed playing with Ollie and seemed very happy there. We will gladly use Lisa’s services in the future, she is trustworthy, loving and very in tune to our dog’s needs.”
“Leslie was wonderful with my 4 year old lab mix, Scarlett. My dog can be a little shy at first, but a couple of day care visits before my fishing trip seemed to help her become comfortable quickly. Scarlett seemed to have a great time. Playing and dogging with her new friends. She also formed quite the bond with Leslie! She was ecstatic to see her when we ran into each other at the dog parl! Leslie sent daily pictures. I couldn't be more pleased with Leslie's care for Scarlett.”
“Adrienne and her two boys provided the kind of love and care I want my dog to receive when we are away. Adrienne is flexible, responsible and a delight to work with and accommodated us upon our return due to a delay in air travel. I received many photos and was immediately assured that our sweetie was in a great place. Thank you Adrienne ( and your sons) for being so darn nice.”
“Sheena took great care of our 4-month old puppy and 4-year old Moodle. We did a meet and greet and our nervous puppy liked her immediately. During our trip, we got pictures and updates whenever we asked for them as Sheena responded quickly. When we picked them up, we got a full report of everything they did with a wonderful update on eating, playing, pooping, etc. Sheena is very experienced and provided dog and child socialization for our puppy in a safe and structured environment. The pups came home tired, well-behaved, and very happy. As a bonus, we paid Sheena to do a little nail trimming since she is a professional groomer as well. Highly recommend Sheena and we will certainly be back!”
“Our fur goblin Vivi had a fabulous stay with Kara and her pup Doc! Vivi is an energetic gal who loves play and walks, and had a good time with the toy basket at Kara’s place. We appreciated Kara’s updates, photos, and even a video of Vivi and Doc playing together. We felt very comfortable leaving Vivi in Kara’s care.”
“Michelle was our sitter for Rango on a very special day, our wedding! The best sitter we’ve had on Rover. As the bride & groom we were running around all day and it was such peace of mind that Michelle was so caring and sending photos without having to ask so we knew Rango was ok after being very tired from lots of things going on the past few days. Thank you for being part of our wedding day and alleviating one more thing off our list of worries!”
“Dakota is very experienced with working dogs. She provided my dog with lots of exercise, and was very communicative with questions to make my dogs stay comfortable, and in answering any questions I had. Highly recommend!”
“The best dog minder ever. Our Toby loves playing with Archie and gets excited when I mention going over to stay with him. Holly has become almost family to us. Very reliable, friendly.”
“Chelsea was very responsive and accommodating. I called at the last minute she had no problem taking our Airedale Terrier. Such a help know that Zeus would have a good place to stay while we were away - thank you Chelsea.”
“Sofia was great! She sent us photos all the time of our dog which we loved seeing. It seemed like Milo had a great time and we really appreciate Sofia watching him over the holidays.”
“Shannon is super communicative and quick to respond. Best sitter I’ve ever found on Rover. She actually walked my dog multiple times in one day while I boarded my pup with her. Shannon is really flexible with time and put a noticeable effort to be available at the times you need for pick up and drop off.”
“Casey took such incredible care of our dog. We got detailed and thoughtful updates the whole time we were gone alone along with lots of photos. We will be using her every time we got out of town now. Thanks for treating him like your own ♥️”

Another great experience with Virginia. She was very flexible with pick up and drop off times and even allowed a later pickup time due to flight schedule. Will continue to book with her, I always feel comfortable knowing my dog is well cared for and loved. Thank you!
Jael was a great Rover find and we will definitely book her for future stays! We received regular updates and photos while we were gone. Gus got lots of attention from Jael and her family (as seen in photos). We are happy to have found a new Rover home for Gus. Thank you Jael and family!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Anacortes is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 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.

As of October 2026, there are 291 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Anacortes. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Anacortes 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 Anacortes home-away-from-home, 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 Anacortes.
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 Anacortes 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 , 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 .
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 WA 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.
