“Great experience! This was the first time leaving our lab with anyone and we were nervous. April exceeded all our expectations and our dog was happy the whole time! Loved the daily picture or videos she sends as well.”
“Monica is the best! Juniper has stayed with Monica and Scott multiple times now- and they are reliably great. Super communicative and detailed with lots of photos to let us know how things are going. Juniper has a fun time going on walks with Monica and we love that she works on introducing her to new people and pets and experiences. Keeps us at ease when we can't be with her that she is well cared for and having some fun new experiences too!”
“Britt was very friendly and accommodating. Colbie seemed very happy upon our return. She even lost a few pounds which was needed because Britt took her on so many walks. Colbie really enjoyed Britt's dog who was very nice.”
“Yoda loved it there before we even left. They have all the toys and even a little coat for him. They took videos of Yoda going on walks and playing. Sherrie and Bill are a lovely couple and did a great job caring for Yoda. They have a closed-in backyard to keep dogs safe. When we go out of town, we hope they're available.”
“My dogs had a great time! One of our dogs has major stranger danger and Rachael was an expert at acclimating her to her home and handled her with ease. All dogs had a great time!”
“Omi was calm and comfortable with Elaine, which was was perfect for our nervous young chihuahua. She specializes in small dogs, so this was a perfect fit. We plan on having Omi stay with her in the future.”
“I could not be happier with Kayla and her kiddos! They took excellent care of Phoenix, he was loved and became part of the family. Kayla went above and beyond seeing to what he needed ( Phe needed addional medication which she arranged for and picked up from vet! ) Kayla sent many pictures which were delightful and reassuring. I was able to relax and not worry about where Phoenix was. Kayla is a gem!”
“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 .”
“Lana was great; very responsive and helpful. She was also very understanding when are arrival got delayed. If we need help again, I would book her especially since our dogs got along so well.”
“Kevin has a other great day with Linda. Kevin had lots of fun going on walks and taking naps. Kevin stayed a little later today which coincidentally was at the start of the storm. Linda played music for Kevin to keep him calm, which was very thoughtful. Linda also gave us a new client card and gift, which was so kind. Thank you Linda! ☺️”
“This was the first time I have left my fur baby for vacation and was so nervous at first to leave him with anyone. Art took care of Chevy for a week, and I was at peace the whole time. Art sent me updates and pictures everyday. Chevy was very well taken care of. So much he didn’t really seem too excited to come home🤣. I would highly recommend Art to care for your fur baby. He is AH-MAZING!”
“Emily took expert care of our two dogs and were able to accommodate last minute for us due to a family emergency. Emily was super communicative and sent lots of update photos frequently. We were never worried about our dogs being in her care and her pup Olive was a great companion that made sure our dogs had a fun playmate to tire them out! I couldn’t have been happier with Emily and Kenneth boarding our dogs, 100% would recommend to a friend.”
“Teri is wonderful with Louie. She sends us photos every day that often make us laugh because she understands his personality so well and he's sad to leave her place when we come get him. She's the best!”
“Angela was SO amazing. She was referred to me by my neighbor and did NOT disappoint. She was quick to reply to any and all messages and was super friendly and accommodating. She was picking up my neighbors dogs the same day and offered to pick mine up to which saved me so much time! She was great about updating me on my pup while we were out of town and even took initiative and gave him a bath when he seemed to be a little itchy. 10/10 recommend and will be booking her in the future! Thank you so much Angela and family! Ripley had the best time!”
“This was our first boarding experience with DeeAnna, and it exceeded our expectations, just as we anticipated given how incredible she is with doggy day care. She provided multiple daily updates with photos and exceptional care throughout their stay. Our pups love going to Deanna and did so great—enjoying daily outings, hikes, and walks, along with plenty of extra cuddles, love, and snuggles, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away.”
“Lyandra was an absolutely awesome! I had to go out of town for just under a week and left my German Shepherd, Lilly, in her care. From day one, Lyandra was extremely communicative and sent wonderful updates and photos that put my mind at ease. It was clear Lilly was having the absolute best time — tons of play, attention, and fun. When I came to pick her up, Lilly almost seemed sad to leave! I honestly don’t think you could find a better person to watch your dog. Lyandra is caring, reliable, and genuinely loves animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“A wonderful pet sitter! Very communicative and warm. She was able to accommodate our last minute request, sent us updates and photos of our doggy while we were away, which was very reassuring, and she was flexible and understanding when our ferry delayed our pickup time by almost an hour. We would recommend her and be happy to have her care for our pup again in the future.”
“Teri is Amazing. Kind, gentle and very caring. I highly recommend her. Addie told me she never wants to go anywhere else!! Thank you so much Teri. Nikki and Addie”
“Peaches had THE BEST time with Jill and Aaron. Jill was highly communicative, shared stellar photos of my beauty, and Aaron even carried Peaches a few blocks after she decided she isn’t a fan of freezing rain. Thank you both!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Arlington is $60
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Arlington
When I planned a week-long vacation, I knew I’d have to find a pet sitter for my puppy. For most pet parents, leaving your pet with a stranger can be daunting and anxiety inducing. Thankfully, I left my 6 month old puppy with Adena and her lovely family. Adena might have been a stranger when I dropped Cashew off, but after a day or two it felt like I’d left my sweet puppy with family. She was extremely communicative and answered any and all questions I had. Every day I got updates, photos, and videos of my puppy having the best week ever. Adena’s golden retriever, Glacier, was the sweetest, most patient playmate to my rambunctious puppy. Cashew even bonded with Adena’s daughter, following her around the house like a little shadow. Adena and her family will treat your pets with the same love, care, and compassion that they show their own pets. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that Cashew was safe, loved, and having a great vacation of her own! Adena will be the first person I reach out to the next time I need a dog sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Arlington on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,810 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Arlington. 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.
92% of Arlington 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 Arlington 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 Arlington 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 Arlington.
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 Arlington 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 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.
