“We had a great vacation, but Benson's was even better. We weren't sure he'd want to come home after spending time at Lance's. <g> I've already recommended Lance to other pet owners. We especially appreciate that he only takes a few dogs at a time.”
“Betty and David are wonderful sitters! They always provide my dog the best care and attention and provide so many updates! If I could use them all the time, I would!”
“Lily had a superior time with Kathy and Craig. She truly loves and understands dogs. Lily loved playing with all the dogs, and learned a few things about sharing. We have an 8 yr old cat, and they dont share much. We would recommend Kathy to anyone who wants a positive experience for their dog??”
“Doreen is incredible. Our dog has a lot of anxiety issues. We were so concerned about leaving her with someone we didn't know but Doreen went above and beyond. I can not recommend her enough. She is a dog whisperer. Thank you, Doreen!! It's so nice to know we have you! This won't be the last time you see our dog Margaux.”
“Maribel and her husband were the perfect match for my dog, Charlie. They have a dog-loving home with a fenced-in yard. Maribel went above and beyond to provide photos and updates during my trip. I got several photos every day, which assured me that he was having a great time and fitting in with her sweet dogs. I’m pretty sure Charlie didn’t want to come home! I also appreciated how flexible she was with drop off and pick up times. I would recommend Maribel to anyone!”
“If there were more than 5 stars I would select them all. I cannot recommend her enough! She took incredible care of Loki and truly treated him like royalty. Not only did she make sure he got plenty of walks and attention, but she also groomed him and made sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout his stay. What I appreciated most was her excellent communication. She sent frequent updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about Loki, and I came home to a happy, healthy, and well-loved pup. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Jessi was amazing! My dog seemed to have a blast with her and her family. She was very responsive and sent me daily photos and updates of my pup. She was very understanding and flexible when I needed to add an extra day due to an emergency. I am certain that my dog was loved and extremely well taken care of with Jessi. Jessi truly went above and beyond! I will definitely be using her again and I highly recommend her to others.”
“Kristina took wonderful care of our dog while we were away! Her communication is top notch and she was so accommodating and professional. Our pup returned happy, relaxed, exercised, and even smelling good 😊 We will definitely book with Kristina again!”
“Brandon is always great with Finn, and I’m not sure which of the two are more excited for the visit. Fantastic with communication and considerate of the time zones and my strange work schedules when I’m away for updates.”
“They did a great job taking care of our two dogs. They took pictures, walked them and communicated daily. Highly recommend and would use their house sitting service again, great family!”
“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!”
“Chloe is a Legend!! Our plans changed due to various reasons and she was very accommodating and adjusting to our modifying needs. We left our pup for more than a week. She sent plenty of updates and looks like he had a great time with some of the other dogs. She’s also very kind and great to work with. Will definitely go with her in the future :)”
“Leslie is wonderful! Very communicative and kept me updated throughout the day. This is our pups first time with an actual dog sitter rather than PetSmart. Because it was our pups first time, he was very anxious. She was super understanding and took note to keep an eye on him and made sure she was close to him to help calm him down. I highly recommend her. I will definitely continue going to her.”
“Danika is a sweet lady that truly cares about the animals in her care. Which is a relief when leaving my baby. He thinks he's supposed to go everywhere with me but loves going to Danika so it eases him as well. Thank you Danika ❤️”
“Amber is our go-to when we travel. She takes great care of my puppy and my pup too enjoys spending time with Amber and her family. His energy matches so well with Amber's dog that they just have the best time of their life!”
“Alyssa jumped in while Dane was out of town and made Lobster’s stay feel like a mini vacation. Lobster came along with his buddy Ren and they were straight into dog park adventures, backyard playtime, and running around with Lady (their adora-pup) like old friends. Between hanging out with Alyssa and her two daughters and all the fun outside, the dogs were clearly living their best lives. The steady stream of happy photos made it obvious they were having a blast and being so well cared for. We live 35 mins away from Dane and Alyssa, and the distance didn't bother us because we know our pup will be in good hands. We will book again and again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kent
We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Gizmo was well cared for, happy, and loved while we were away. We received regular updates and had complete peace of mind the entire time. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter! Booking and the drop off was super easy. Thank you!
Camille was so kind, thoughtful, and communicative. She is an experienced sitter with a lot of knowledge about dog breeds. She handled our dogs unique medications with ease and provided us regular updates of a happy, comfortable pup. We’d highly recommend her and hope to book with her again!
Sarah helped us out when we were in a bind, taking our boy for a couple days hours before a last second trip! She sent lots of updates and treated him like one of her own! He usually takes a couple days to wind down after a trip, but this time he came home, played with us for a bit, then settled right down like it was just another day! Thank you again: we’d happily send him your way again!
We are so grateful for Jenae! We connected with her after our long term sitter moved out to state, and we were nervous to find a new sitter to watch our shy, timid pup. Thankfully, Janae was awesome. She's kind and patient, and our dog quickly warmed up to her. We appreciated the daily updates and photos, and we 100% recommend her to anyone looking for boarding. We'll board our pup with her again for our upcoming summer trip in 3 months, and she'll be our go-to sitter from now on.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Kent
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Kent on Rover is $53.28 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 5,762 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kent. 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 Kent 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 Kent 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 Kent 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 Kent.
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 Kent 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.
