“This is Hammer’s 3rd time staying with him, and once again we’re so happy and satisfied with the care he received. Hammer always comes back happy, clean, and smelling so good! even his bowls were washed and clean when we picked him up. You can really tell he’s well taken care of and loved. We truly appreciate the extra care and attention and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dogsitter!”
“So, this was our first time leaving our puppy with someone and I was pretty nervous about it. But let me tell you, our puppy absolutely LOVED staying with David and Betty! We were away for 6 days, and even though I was worried, they took such good care of our pup. They were super attentive and loving, and we could tell that they treated our furry friend like their own. They were also really punctual, flexible, and friendly, and their communication was top-notch. Honestly, I can't recommend them enough to anyone in the area who needs reliable and trustworthy people to look after their fur babies. Thanks a million, Betty and David, for giving us such peace of mind while we were away!”
“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!”
“She was amazing with Rima. She sent me cute pictures and videos everyday showing me how much fun Rima was having. I really appreciated her professionalism, care, and love she showed with my babygirl. I definitely recommend letting her look after your dogs. Spacious home and a sweet family that includes her own fur baby!”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Bringing our dogs to Kathy and Craig is like taking them to extended family. Our girls love them and are very happy to be with them. I trust Kathy and Craig with our sweet girls, and never worry. Thanks for all you do, Kathy and Craig!”
“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!”
“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!”
“I can’t recommend Michelle enough! She took exceptional care of my dog, Bowie, for a week. Throughout Bowie’s stay, she was proactive in sharing photos and videos, which really put my mind at ease. Michelle was also incredibly thoughtful and flexible with my pick-up and drop-off schedule, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Bowie came home happy and well-cared for. Thank you, Michelle!”
“Amber was fantastic! From the time she first met our two dogs until the time she coordinated with our daughter to pick them up after a week of sitting, Amber was a professional with a great attitude who treated every canine she watched with kindness. I will definitely turn to Amber the next time we need a dog sitter, and I recommend her your dog sitting needs. Thanks, Amber!”
“Jessi and her family are so wonderful! This is the second time Jessi’s watched our dog and we can’t say enough wonderful things about her. She goes above and beyond. We hope we’re lucky enough to have her babysit again.”
“In my first experience with Rover, I recently boarded my ten-year-old cat with Maggie. She was a marvelous host, going to great lengths to provide a comfortable, caring environment for my little buddy. Maggie has a genuine love of animals, and truly understands cats. I look forward to boarding with Maggie again in the future.”
“Wow. Just. Wow. Cyndi was so communicative and Caspian was so well cared for. I was nervous at first because we'd never left him with anyone before but my fears were nullified by the end of the first day. So amazing.”
“Cooper had a great stay! Marina and Richard provided many pictures throughout, which helped me know that Cooper was having a great time while I was away. Thank you!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kent
Sourabh and his wife have been the best Rover sitters we have had yet! They took such incredible care of our Sadie and she came home tired and happy. They sent photos and videos regularly and were very responsive and prompt with all their interactions. I will definitely be booking with them again!
Chloe was absolutely wonderful! After a previous bad boarding experience, I had a lot of anxiety about leaving my dogs, but she completely put my mind at ease. She was incredibly friendly, professional, and communicative throughout the entire stay, sending me regular photo and video updates where my pups looked like they were having the absolute best time. She effortlessly administered my dog's medication with no issues at all, and my dogs absolutely loved running around in her great backyard. I have officially found my go-to dog sitter moving forward. I cannot recommend her enough!
Jenae is a fantastic, trusted sitter. She watched our nervous, shy dog during the 4th of July weekend, and it went very well. We got regular updates, and we were comfortable and assured leaving our pup with Jenae. This was our second time booking Jenae, and we'll choose her again the next time we're out of town.
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!

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.
