“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 highly recommend Molly for dog sitting in her home. She did everything possible to ensure my anxious Chihuahua was happy and comfortable. He ended up having a great time! We will definitely book with her again.”
“Another awesome Rover stay for our Hazel! Tamar treats Hazel as if she is her own and we couldn't be happier with the love and care Hazel received while we travel. We were in Europe and I didn't think twice about Hazel's happiness! Thank you Tamar for yet ANOTHER fantastic sitting experience! Planning a few future trips and the easiest part about our planning will be where Hazel is staying!”
“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.”
“We loved every bit about our experience with Debra! As a first time Rover user, we wanted to find a host locally that our Molly would love… and Debra nailed it! I’m pretty sure Molly didn’t want to leave! Long walks, daily photo and video sessions, positive open communication, snuggles! We scheduled a pre-visit to get acquainted and I was so thankful we did because it made the whole experience so much less stressful. We will definitely use Debra for our next Rover stay!”
“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.”
“Kirsten does an amazing job! I was apprehensive about leaving my dog Piper with someone I didn’t know since we just moved here but Kirsten made both of us feel very comfortable! She provided updates throughout the trip and piper had so much fun! I’m sure Piper is excited for her next stay!”
“Always kind and responsive! Had to add two different eye drops to our dogs routine right before visit. They were amenable and easy to work around our last minute change to her care.”
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.
“Thank you for taking excellent care of Plum!! It was a big help knowing she was in great hands with people who care about her. She’s looking forward to returning! Thank you!”
“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!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we were thrilled with the experience! Richard took great care of our 6mos old puppy and sent frequent updates so we didn’t need to worry how she was doing. Highly recommend!”
“Having your pup stay with Jennifer is amazing. I really appreciated the meet and greet prior to setting up time with her. Then we booked a practice day before leaving her overnight for a long weekend. We have never left our dog with anyone before and we felt really comfortable she was in a cozy spot. There were little dog beds all over the living room and Jennifer said it was okay for her to sleep in her bed too. She sent some cute photos while we were gone. And the second time we came, our little one was happy to go in. Now we feel more flexibility to leave our dog while we take a trip in future!”
“Leslie was truly amazing! Her communication was thorough before the weekend, and kept us updated through the weekend with videos and photos. She will be our first connection the next time we need a sitter. Thank you for your kindness and taking care of our Ellie, Leslie. You are wonderful!”
“We've got a quirky girl that doesn't naturally warm up to everyone, so we weren't sure how it was going to go, but she LOVED Erika and her time staying at her place. Erika sent us lots of daily updates and let us know how our girl was doing. I am so happy we found Erika and have a great option for fun homestay vacation for our dog.”

Melissa & Kyle took excellent care of my 8 year old Lab, Betty. They are knowledgeable "dog people", attentive, and great communicators. Betty joined their 2 playful & active Goldens for a week of fun. Kyle is always around as he works from home. Their yard is exceptionally well fenced and we'll maintained. Betty will be back.
Kelly dogs at for three weeks with our Charlie. She came early to get to know Charlie before we left, which was much appreciated. She sent pictures and regularly let us know how things were going. She also generously let a neighbor with construction stay with her for several days. That was not in her job description!
Alexis is a wonderful dog sitter!! She truly loves dogs and my dog Cooper immediately gravitated to her caring natures. She went above and beyond to make sure he was exceptionally well cared for. She sent regular updates with cute pictures and thoughtful observations that made me know she's was giving him lots of love and attention for the entire stay. I'll absolutely send Cooper to see her again soon!
Molly is an excellent option for anyone looking for a safe and fun spot to board their dog. They have two fenced yards and two fun, little dogs to keep your pup company. Molly was able to get my girl to take her oral medication, and she provided picture updates of her stay. Her location is super convenient for drop-off and pickup on your way in and out of Seatac, which is also a plus. Molly would be a great option for any dog, but maybe even better for dogs who don't like to be left alone or who appreciate company. Highly recommend!
Delta and River had the BEST time! When we picked them up today they slept all day from getting to be so active and play so hard. Leaving them with someone new is always scary, but this crew was great with communication and picture updates. When we were missing them extra, they even sent us some videos of their fun. We appreciated the feedback on the dogs’ time there and that they made sure they were paired with the right energies and friend personalities. If we lived in Seattle we’d definitely send them here often, but certainly for anytime we fly out of SeaTac. They even offer airport parking which is a short uber ride from the airport and a Starbucks gift card!
Our dogs had a great time with Tyler and Alexis! Tyler and Alexis sent updates twice a day along with lots of great photos. One of our dogs had never stayed with a sitter before and we weren't sure how she would do- when we picked her up, she seemed reluctant to leave! We can't wait to have Tyler and Alexis sit for us again in the future.
Jo took great care of Luna over the July 4th weekend. She was initially anxious to be left (she always is) but Jo took her for a walk to put her at ease and helped her settle in. She was in happy and good spirits when I picked her up. We loved getting the pictures and updates! We will book with Jo again!
Adejia took such good care of my dog while I was away on vacation - Rumi is a high energy dog and not the best on the leash and she was kind enough to take her to the off leash park a bunch. Her and Kona got along great and made great playmates! I got pictures everyday and was confident my dog was in good hands :) Thanks again!
Jonathan is a fantastic sitter who took such good care of our old special needs pup, Newton. Newton poses challenges and Jonathan was polite and courteous even after some soiling occurred. I really couldn't ask more of a sitter and Newton was relaxed and joyful when he came home. H8s boarding space for pups is lovely. Highly highly recommended!
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!!
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.
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!

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.
