“Daisha and her husband were amazing!! My dog Xena does best in a household where she is the only dog and I’m so glad we found Daisha! We did a first introduction about a week or two before the dates booked so they could meet and get familiar with each other which went well. While Xena was boarded they sent pictures and updates at least once a day explaining how she was doing and adjusting. Thankfully Xena was comfortable and there were no problems but I’m certain if there was, we would be able to find a solution. Overall I am extremely happy I booked with Daisha and her husband and would definitely book again!!”
“I can’t say enough amazing things about Tamar. Not only was she super helpful before the boarding process but she was also in on my fiancé’s secret engagement proposal. This was our first time boarding our dog and using Rover and we will only come back for Tamar. She is super responsive and sends multiple pictures and videos of your pet on a daily basis. She is also super knowledgeable and you know you can trust her with all your pets needs. I appreciate that she gets the dogs out to play at parks as well. Thank you Tamar for the amazing experience and I highly recommend anyone use her for their pets boarding needs!!”
“Milton loved staying with Maria over the weekend! She was very communicative and sent great photos & videos while I was away. I could tell Milton was very comfortable with her and her pups, so I did not have to worry about him. Highly recommend Maria and will be rebooking with her in the future. Thank you, Maria!!”
“Maria and Kalyan (and Nikko) made Millie feel so welcome and treated her as their own during her 6 night stay with them. Her and Nikko seemed to really get on, and we got lots of cute pictures of walks, play time, treats, and relaxing time! I felt so relaxed leaving Millie in their care. She’ll be back for sure!”
“Molly was great! We got plenty of updates and pictures throughout the day. One of our boys is slow to warm up and can be grumbly/barky with new people and she was very patient with him and both dogs seemed to have a great time!”
About: My 3.5 y/o corgi, Kiko, would tell you I love all dogs, almost too much. For the last 13+ years, I’ve been fortunate enough to be responsible for at least 1, and most of the time 2 dogs of my own. While I have no formal training or certifications , I’m great with puppies still learning a routine, senior dogs who need a strict routine and everyone in between. I’m a very calm human so even nervous dogs are comfortable with me. I currently work from home, so I’m really good for dogs who require a little extra attention or struggle being left alone for long periods. I have a spacious two bedroom apartment with one flight of stairs and a nice balcony/patio for bird watching and sun bathing. When Kiko is here, we go on at least 3 walks a day, weather permitting, and make regular trips to various dog parks to see his friends throughout the week. When he’s not, we’ll still walk a lot but maybe fewer dog park visits unless that’s your dog’s thing too. If the cheapest sitter you can find is what you’re looking for, I’m not your person. However, under my watch, your dog will be safe, extremely well cared for, and loved like they are my own. Your dog will get the same care if I’m at your place and I share custody of Kiko, so his presence is not always guaranteed.
“Ashley was awesome! I had major oral surgery and needed him cared for so I could heal without having to worry about my dogs care and she took such good care of my migi and sent me lots of updates and photos in the 6 nights she had him. She was very accommodating as well when we needed to change or do things differently in migi’s favor. Will def book her again in the future! Highly recommend 10/10.”
“Kirsten is the best and our pup CJ loves staying with her family! She is very thoughtful, very caring, and sends the cutest pictures. We love having her as our Rover!”
“Colleen and her husband were perfect. It’s clear they understand dogs and know how to make them feel comfortable. Odin enjoyed our initial visit, and when we came back two months later for the drop off it was clear he was excited and happy to be there. We will absolutely ask them to watch Odin again.”
“Lindsey and her beautiful family took such great care of our pup for a few days! We loved the pics and updates while we were away, we can’t wait to book with Lindsey again.”
“Jennifer was one of the best hosts we’ve used on Rover. She was flexible and responsive when it came to organizing a meet and greet with her Junebug. She responds instantly, there’s no waiting to hear back from Jennifer. She’s got a great fenced backyard for the dogs. We will definitely rebook with her again!”
“Carl is an amazing sitter! Very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and I could tell our boy was very comfortable and having a great time while we were gone. Carl’s space is fantastic for any pets, our dog loved being there. I will absolutely reach out to Carl first in the future for any sitting needs.”
“Richard took such good care of our elderly odd couple. His photos and communication set us completely at ease knowing that our pups were well-loved and cared for. We’ll definitely book again the next time we venture out into the world!”
“It was my first time using Rover, and I could tell my dog enjoyed staying with Chuk. She sent daily updates and was responsive to all my questions. I had to drop my dog off early in the morning and pick her up late at night, which can be challenging, but she was incredibly flexible with the timing. Thank you so much!”
“Left our dog with Erica for a week and she was awesome. Had really great, caring questions for us prior to the stay that made it clear she really cares about the dogs she watches. Got daily updates with photos, would definitively have her watch our pup again.”
“Martha and her family are just the best. Charlie had the best time spending the week with them. Martha sent pictures of Charlie and he settled in nicely there. Charlie got really attached to Martha’s daughter and it brought us comfort knowing he was truly treated like their own. Martha first watched my previous schnauzer 9 years ago! We’ll definitely use them again and highly recommend them!”
“Ben and Sarah were amazing and so great with Oliver!! It was clear Ollie felt comfortable around them and was given plenty of attention. I received daily updates with pictures of Ollie looking happy as ever! They made sure he was very well taken care of and gave me a very detailed synopsis once I got back to pick him up. He was walked, given lots of play and outside time, well-fed, and given LOTS of attention and cuddles! Would definitely use them again!”
“Samantha did a great job with Mac for a 9 day visit! He returned home healthy and happy, and she kindly provided him toys which I forgot to pack. Since she has no pets of her own, Samantha is ideal for the dog who likes to be the "only child."”

Maria treated our girls like they were her own. They are generally scared of everything and Maria had no trouble making them feel welcome and safe. We received great photo and video updates that showed the girls were living their best life with lots of doggy friends and daily walks on the beach. I think they miss Maria and all the furry friends she hosts. Whenever we have to go out of town or just need extra help, we'll be asking Maria if she is available!
Alexis is truly the best dog sitter on Rover!!! She took the best care of our boy Huey, sent us 10+ photos a day of him living his best life at dog parks, long walks, hanging at their place, and everywhere else they went together. I can't reccommend her enough, truly the best dog sitter around. Feel like our dog was genuinely sad to leave.
First time I have left my babies with anyone from Rover and I am SO happy I went with Lindsey and Jason. They have a perfect set up for dogs, they made sure they knew the dogs eating/potty schedules and they sent many photo updates and were quick to respond anytime I had a question. Highly recommend - will be using them in the future!!
Maria & Kalyan are always quick to respond to requests which I appreciate, as we booked a short notice day trip over a weekend! I appreciate their regular updates and pictures on how Luna is doing, especially considering that this was the first time she stayed overnight at their place. :) I truly feel like they love and care for Luna as if she were their own dog. Thank you for being so patient with Luna, making sure she is taken care of and feels safe and loved. I appreciate you going on so many walks despite the weather being rainy/not the best at times. It has been sweet to see her get more comfortable with each visit.
Isabelle was great! She attended a meet and greet ahead of our booking, was very responsive about our dog's first evening nervousness, and provided an overall low-key, relaxed experience. The yard was beautiful and had a reassuringly tall and solid fence. Our dog clearly had a great time, we would book with Isabelle again.
Very communicative about my dog! Gave updates and pictures throughout the day. When my dog had a problem with allergies she immediately took him to the vet and made sure he was okay. She thoroughly made me feel okay during a stressful situation! Will definitely rebook on a long trip.
Colleen was absolutely wonderful! As a first-time Rover user, I was pretty nervous about leaving my pup with someone new, but she immediately put my mind at ease. She was so kind and caring with my baby and kept me updated throughout the stay with the cutest photos and videos of their playtime. It was clear Bella was getting lots of attention, love, and care while I was away. The best part was seeing how happy and comfortable she was when she came home. I couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience. I would absolutely book with Colleen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!
Akira had such a fun time with Stephanie whilst i was away on vacation. I knew Akira would be in great hands with Stephanie & Antonio from the meet & greet. During her stay I got loads of pictures & videos of Akira being cuddly, goofy, funny and just living her best life. She was a very happy girl to say the least! Stephanie is very communicative, punctual & helpful. Would recommend & would book again! Thank you!!
My two dogs, Coco and Coors, stayed with Meredith for five days of boarding at her home. I reached out less than 12 hours before leaving town, and she replied within minutes and accepted our request. She made everything super easy. I loved getting photo and message updates while we were gone. Meredith clearly loves dogs, and her home is perfect for them, with comfy dog‑friendly furniture and a big yard. When I picked up my pups, they were relaxed and clearly well cared for. I’d absolutely book with Meredith again and recommend her to anyone looking for care for their dogs.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Burien
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Burien on Rover is $49.95 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 5,810 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Burien. 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.
91% of Burien 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 Burien 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 Burien 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 Burien.
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 Burien 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.
