“Our dog Benji stayed with Wendy for 8 days while we were away and I would highly recommend her for your dog sitting needs. She is super responsive, organized, and professional. Her kennel facilities are clean and well kept. She clearly loves animals and took great care of our dog. Wendy is super easy to work with and willing to go above and beyond when needed. I would not hesitate to rebook with her in the future!”

“Katherine was absolutely wonderful, and we will definitely be booking with her again. She is calm, patient, and truly understands how to work with reactive and anxious dogs. She made our dogs feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. She also had great communication throughout our time away, sending text and picture updates every morning and evening, which gave us peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and highly recommend Katherine!”
“We love Lindsey and Leland’s loving home for our dog! They always provide daily updates and genuinely care about our girl. We will continue to use them in the future.”
“Mandy is very thoughtful in her service. She sent me daily updates my baby fur girl and she gave me a bow tie wordrup in the end to dress up my dog. My dog as well enjoyed her stay at Mandy's home.”
“Brought Rusty back for her 2nd acclimation visit before the big trip. This time it was an afternoon and an overnight. She seemed more comfortable and relaxed. Julia sent lots of photos of Rusty wandering about the really great yard with other dogs. This made me happy because Rusty doesn't get to be around other dogs and I think she is enjoying the socialization. She goes back today for "the trip". I am glad that I have acclimated her. She is an old girl and is by nature fearful but she seemed quite comfortable with Julia when we picked her up this last time.”
“My dogs were well taken care of with Nicole. She kept me posted on how they were doing and has a great set up for housing pups, with property for dogs to walk and play. She was easy to work with and was able to watch my dogs with a last minute request. I highly ecommend!”
“Kara did an excellent job caring for our dog and took care of him as if he was her own dog. She was willing and able to keep his general daily routine which kept him comfortable, happy and healthy. She was attentive to his needs and sent regular updates with photos. Kara is a wonderful and loving sitter and I highly recommend her.”
“Lynda was wonderful looking after Nellie! We received pictures and comments about Nellie during our trip so we could see she was having a nice time while we gone! Lynda is a great dogsitter and Nellie did well in a home vs boarding kennel setting. She missed us but enjoyed playing with other dogs!”
“This was our first time ever using Rover, and we couldn't be happier with our experience! They took such incredible care of our dog and truly treated her like one of their own. It was obvious she felt comfortable, loved, and well cared for the entire time she was there. She got along so well with their dog, and they played hard every single day, which made us so happy to see. We also really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and communication while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to watch their dog. We wouldn't hesitate to book with them again!”
“Leslie was absolutely wonderful! She was very communicative throughout the entire booking, took extra care in checking in, and was fantastic for our pup. She made sure to provide daily pictures and took her out for walks and to the dog park. We would love to book again the future!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Elk on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 396 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elk. 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.
96% of Elk 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 Elk 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 Elk 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 Elk.
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 Elk 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.
