“Marla is awesome! She did a fantastic job caring for my pup and sent me lots of updates while I was away. She was so kind to take my dog in at the very last minute. I would definitely recommend her!”
“I strongly recommend Cyndi! I had a last-minute cancellation by another ROVER sitter, and found Cyndi who was willing to watch my dog for a week with very little notice. She took wonderful care of Jax and treated him like her own. Cyndi kept me updated by sending me photos. I knew my dog was in great hands.”
“Judith was great! Very communicative and was very good at working with me on times(I had a late flight coming in). She was great at giving me updates on Leo and he seemed like the happiest dog in the world when I picked him up. Thank you very much, and will book with her again when I need a sitter!”
“Molly and her husband took such sweet care of our pup. They were so relaxed and we felt like they would love piper like their own! We got lots of picture updates and we were able to meet their pups before we left ours with them for a night. Our dog came back calm ready for a nap after having lots of play time with her new friends. We are so excited to be able to leave piper with them again and we are so glad that we found a safe place for our dog to go to when we go out of town! 100% would suggest Molly and her family to others!”
“Taylor was amazing from start to finish! She provided timely updates and photos of my dog and he looked like he was enjoying every moment in her home while I was away. I would definitely recommend her as a sitter you will not be disappointed.”
“Sourabh took great care of Veeru. He send daily updates and pictures. My dog seemed to get along well with them and their pets. They took care of Veeru like their own dog evident from the pics. Veeru was definitely loved and spoiled. I had to make a modification to the itinerary after 5 days and he was extremely accommodating. Highly recommended Sourabh to care for you fur baby. Bonus point for house with back yard and for working from home so he was always able to keep an eye on veeru.”
“Jordin was so awesome she kept me up to date and sent pictures on a daily this was my first time doing something like this I was nervous and scared. But jordin had reassured me greatly I will definitely be back for future bookings with her ! ❤️”
“Sammy and her roommate took excellent care of my old pup! They let him roam the house, sleep wherever, and be himself. They did great with his medication and feeding schedules, and even took him for a car ride! I will definitely board with them again! My old guy loved spending the weekend with them and it was obvious when I picked him up!”
“Alyssa was so wonderful to work with. She is very personable and communicative about all of our dogs needs. I appreciated that she has a great set up for animals, clean, and warm hearted with our dog. I recommend her and would be happy to book her again.”
“I can tell that Onyx had an amazing time with Ricardo and his wife. He had other friends to play with and they told me that he loved a ball that he was playing with. I am so happy that I found Ricardo for Onyx. I feel so at peace with leaving my pup with him.”
“Katie and Mike, you are the best hosts for our pup! Thank you for putting up with his crazy behavior and teenager ways and loving him anyway! We are so blessed to have you guys!”
“Keri took exceptional care of my dog when I went out of town for a quick overnight vacation. Keri graciously met my dog before his stay to help him become familiar with her, and when I dropped off my pup at her house, she was warm and welcoming and was able to recall every detail and quirk about my dog that I had described in the care instructions. Indeed, her preparation, generosity, kindness, and updates/pics throughout my dog's stay kept me at ease and have easily guaranteed that Keri will be my first choice for all of my dogsitting needs. Thank you!”
“As always we are so grateful for maafatu. Right from the start my dogs couldn’t WAIT to get out of my car and Maafatu remembered my husband and I and even our dogs names!

“Carmen is an absolute dream and was incredibly helpful and the perfect fit to care for my iggy! Communication was smooth, fast and seamless. The photos and videos she sent were awesome, showing my ‘lil guy having a blast and “living his best life” ! She even had adorable little outfits that he wore during his stay! I can’t rate her professionalism, caring and thoughtful communication high enough! Especially as my iggy was not accustomed to being away from me, I was blown away how contented he was from the very start.”
“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.”
“Buddy had another great stay! We love the update selfies and texts to let us know he's ok. My kids look forward to these! They love seeing Buddy with his new friends. We also like the flexibility in drop off/pickup times, and the ability to make a quick departure. Most of all, we appreciate the personal attention he gets each stay. We know he's well taken care of because he's so relaxed when gets home. ”

All wonderful things to say about Maggie! We had a great meet and greet and got to meet her awesome fur babies and super cozy home. She sent so many pictures of Milo throughout his stay. He didn’t even look like he wanted to come back to us haha! She’s probably the only person who can take care of my baby just like I do.
Alex and her lab are fantastic with my pup. She has a dog that my pup loved to play with in the large yard and a young child that my dog enjoyed splashing in a pool with! Alex is quick to communicate and easy to work with, very responsible with instructions and items sent- like a special harness and food timing. Thanks Alex!
Judith was great. She and her husband really care for dogs and it shows with how they cared for our dog. She provided daily updates on how our dog was acclimating to her new environment and with the other dogs in her care. The large backyard and doggie door were a huge plus since we knew our little girl loves to go outside a lot and run. We won’t hesitate to book again.
Coguie will miss her favorite sitter auntie Rachel and Chris. As always, this last stay of Coguie with Rachel before our move was a pleasant one and full of care and love to our princess. If you need to be away from your fur baby for a couple of days, I highly recommend Rachel as a pet sitter. You will be at peace knowing your fur baby will be well taken care of and spoiled.

Ari and his wife Linda were absolutely wonderful with our two dogs. They were very communicative throughout the stay and regularly sent photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Their two dogs helped ours feel comfortable and at home right away, and it was clear our dogs felt safe around Ari, his family, and the other dogs. We really appreciated how responsible Ari was in suggesting a trial run before we left our dogs for a couple of weeks—it showed how thoughtful and experienced he is. He also has a great yard where the dogs can run around and play. We’re so happy to have found Ari and Linda and feel confident knowing we have someone we trust to look after our dogs in the future. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Federal Way on Rover is $73.83 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 5,829 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Federal Way. About 91% of Federal Way sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
