âBecky was absolutely amazing. She treated our two dogs like family of her own and sent many updates while we were away. We never had to worry whether or not they were in good hands. We will definitely be recommending Becky to anyone looking for a reliable, affordable and caring dog sitter!â
âAbsolutely awesome!! My two babies never had a sleepover before. She sent pictures throughout the two night stay and met videos of my boys being as happy and comfy as they are with us at home. When we picked them us, they were all relaxed just like we had family watch them. I recommend her 1000 times over again! Her little boy is the cutest bonus to their visit. Thank you!!â
âMorgan was fantastic! I contacted her relatively last minute to watch my puppy for a full day and she enthusiastically agreed to help me out! She kept my feisty pup safe, entertained, and tired out! Iâm very grateful for her. And as the cherry on top, she came home and slept all night (a much needed full nights sleep for me, as well đ)â
About: I have alot of experience with horse sized dogs and little obes alike, its important to me that they get the love they miss from their owners. Im currently going to school partime and learning the area so i have tons of time to go for walks or play with your fur baby and keep up their schedule. I want to make sure both of our spaces are respected, i like to keep places as nice as i left them so i try to take an hour to spot clean anywhere ive been or where your pet may have made a mess and leave it tidy. I do the same for my home, i clean after every visitor.
About: iâm going into my second year of college pursuing a degree in science and mathematics. my goal is to have a career in wildlife rehabilitation or veterinary care. i also have experience within EMS & firefighting as iâve been a volunteer since 16. iâve always loved animals of any kind and have been in aw by my own pets. i have 2 cats and 2 dogs, but currently live with only my senior cat (i brought her along with me for college). shes very specific but i make sure to keep up on her needs and do whatever i can for my baby. i live in a smaller sized apartment so I donât currently have my dogs living with me, but since being away i miss being around them. soon i will be an intern at a zoo for animal care so iâm really looking forward to this opportunity! i love looking after family and friends pets, everytime I just feel as joyous as can be. I would love to start taking care of more pets within my community and gain more experience! __________________________________________ little side note: i allow my pets on my bed and couch with me all the time, just for some reason I wasnât sure how to edit that off my profile lol so just know your pet is more than welcome đ iâm currently on summer break working a part time job, but have a flexible schedule. i like to go outside to parks, find good places to hike, and staying active. with bookings i will make sure to keep myself available or work with your schedule, whether that be for mornings, evenings, or even overnight. iâm also available the weekends. once school begins i will still be able to remain flexible. my senior cat sofia is specific with her needs, whether thatâs the food she eats, the places she sleeps, or the litter i get. whatever her needs may be, whether she likes her hard food or gets sick of and only wants wet food, i make sure to listen. when sheâs having a stomach ache or under the weather, iâm alerted and get her the best care i can provide. when it comes to family or friends animals like their dogs i like to spend a lot of time with them outside, taking them to parks, and even to hike depending on the kind of dog and their energy level. for clients iâll ensure to keep them updated on their pets and if their were special instructions on how they want their pet to be treated i will do my best to make sure they are safe and well cared for.
âVanessa took great care of our Lady, a 6 month old berner pup. She worked with her on tricks and socializing with the other dogs while allowing her to play outside in the snow and taking really good care of her. Would love to have her dog sit for us again and Lady would agreeâ
About: Had 3 jack russell terriers growing up, now I have a black lab/terrier puppy. I have a lot of experience with dogs. I have plenty of dog toys to play with and a nice grass yard out back. I work full time but come home for an hour in the middle of the day for lunch. I am free weekends and take my pup on walks on the nearby canal frequently I have a fenced yard out back of my house and a very dog friendly living space. My dog gets along great with others and loves to play.
âCassandra was amazing with my Sophia who is an older dog with a few senior issues. We were kept in the loop every day on how she was adjusting to her new sitter ( including pictures) and that made me feel confident we made a great choice. I would hope Cassandra will agree to watch Sophia again when she needs boarding. Anneâ

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kirkland
I canât say enough wonderful things about Becky and her sweet family. This was my first time using Rover, I was very nervous but right off the bat Becky made me feel super comfortable about everything. I left my Emma with them for almost an entire week and it seemed like she had a blast. Becky sent updates and pictures throughout the week and my girl got all the love and snuggles that we would have given her at home! They definitely treated her like their own âĄĚ I could go on and on but bottom line would ABSOLUTELY recommend booking with Becky, we definitely will be!
Laura welcomed our little Luna right into her family and she was great about keeping us updated whilst we were visiting our family and friends in Scotland. There wasnât any uneasiness or anxiety when we picked her up either which can happen when sheâs out of her routine. Great job Laura and family. Hope you enjoyed the shortbread.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 125 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kirkland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while youâre away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent youâd 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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dogâs regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
98% of sitters in Kirkland can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dogâs needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dogâs usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Kirkland 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 Kirkland.
Tip: You can upload your dogâs routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kirkland. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Kirkland sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of youâand 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 dogâs vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitterâs care.
Many sitters in NY 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, youâre 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. Youâll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
