“Great guy, no complaints! His dogs play well with others and the house is nice. He kept in good communication and sent pictures of my dog during the stay, would re-book and recommend him to others!”
“Jerrie was wonderful! She luckily had last minute availability for my pup and was very responsive. She sent pictures every day and it looked like Sage was having a blast!”
“Jennifer and her family were absolutely amazing! She sent updates and pictures every day and told us how he was doing always! Our golden is super shy and skittish, and him being around other pups his age was so good for him. So glad we found them!”
“Pamela was amazing with our dog Jasper, she exceeded any expectations we had. Her daily photos and communications were wonderful as well as her flexibility on drop off and pick up times. I could see by the photos that Jasper enjoyed his time with her pups and I felt he was safe and secure with her. She has a beautiful home and fenced yard providing a very loving environment. Jasper was very well cared for. We had him stay with her during the 4th of July, I had calming meds on hand as the noise from fireworks can make him so nervous. Pamela gave him the meds and he was a champ, she updated me to let me know he did very well. I would highly recommend Pamela for anyone seeking exceptional care for their pet. I will most certainly use her again. Thank you so much Pamela, We are so happy we found you on Rover!”
“Yvonne was absolutely amazing with our high-energy lab pup, Bailey. She had so much patience and understanding, and many skills to help make for a positive and comforting stay for Bailey. I highly recommend for not only boarding but any training needs. Will be using Yvonne for all of our future boarding and training needs!”
“This was our first time using Rover, Darby was very sweet and took great care of our dogs , we would 110% use her service again. My dogs enjoyed exploring her property during the day and getting snuggly in the evenings. Thank you Darby!”
“Lauren and Dalton took great care of Triton. They were very friendly, responded to me quickly, and sent pictures every day to show me he was having fun with his new friends. I would definitely recommend them, and they'll be my first choice next time I'm in need of a dog sitter.”
“Margaret recently watched our pup Reece and was fantastic!! Reece is a special pup and needs extra care due to his diabetes. He takes insulin 2x daily and although Margaret hadn't done so before, she was open to learning the process and took great care of Reece. He was happy & healthy the duration of his visit (6 days) and we received many updates. We found a great dogsitter in Margaret!!”
“Highly recommend. They have a beautiful home with a nice, spacious backyard. Marianne and Josh are kind and have a lot of experience with dogs. With two sweet dogs of their own, my dog had built in companions while I was away. They are warm, welcoming, and sent lots of cute/funny pics & updates. Your dogs will be loved open arms. So grateful my dog could spend the holiday with such a thoughtful, warm, and fun family! Thank you so much for loving Chai!”
“Jennifer was such a loving and caring sitter!! Bruce was happy to go to her house. She was very attentive to all the dogs’ needs, and gave regular updates and photos. She’s a real dog lover ❤️.”
“My husband and I would give 10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ no hesitation! We boarded our shy diabetic cat with Qing while traveling overseas, and we've never felt more at ease! We received dozens of pictures AND videos every single day along with detailed care notes and it felt like we never left our cat! Medications and injections were done PERFECTLY and closely observed by Qing! Because we had sitter messed up the meds before and can't risk it anymore with a non-professional. It is even better that she has indoor and outdoor security motion cameras, so our kitty is always safe and comfortable in her calm home when we go on next trips. We highly recommend Qing for special and complex needs!”
About: Pet Care Experience 🐾 I’m a dog lover and proud Westie dog mom, so caring for pets is just something that makes me happy. I have hands on experience with small breeds, including dogs with sensitive skin and allergies, and I understand how important the little details are when it comes to their routines, diet, and comfort. From daily walks to fresh meals and playtime, I make sure each pup feels safe, happy, and loved just like at home. What Sets Me Apart 💛 Having two Westies of my own has taught me patience, consistency, and how to balance fun with structure. I treat every dog in my care like family, paying close attention to their body language, comfort levels, and unique personalities. Whether it’s helping a shy dog feel more confident or keeping a playful pup entertained, I adapt to each dog’s needs with warmth and understanding. My goal is to make your pets feel as secure and loved with me as they do with you because they deserve everything in the world! I work full time, but my schedule is flexible which means I can easily make time for drop ins, walks, or evening visits. When I’m not working, I’m a total homebody who loves spending time cooking, relaxing with my dogs, and enjoying quiet nights in. Your pets will always get my full attention and care, just like my own. 💖 I share my home with two sweet Westies who are a little shy at first but quickly warm up and love making new friends. They’re great at helping visiting dogs feel more comfortable and relaxed while away from home. I keep a camera inside the house so I can check in on everyone when I’m at work and make sure all is well. My dogs follow a consistent routine, but I’m flexible and happy to adjust to your pet’s schedule and needs. I always supervise outdoor time to ensure everyone stays secure. You’re welcome to bring along anything that helps your dog feel right at home their favorite bed, toy, or blanket is always encouraged!😊
“Yang and her family were wonderful to our dog, Xiaolong, while we were away for a few days. We know Yang will be the first Rover we contact the next time we are away and need a loving home away from home for our dog.”
“Alison was great! She took wonderful care of our sweet Chocolate lab who is 10.5 years old. She took him out on multiple walks, and would send us updates. She’d send pictures of him smiling! When we picked him up, he was content and happy. We’d board our dog with her any day knowing he’d be well cared for. Thank you, Alison!! 🐶🐶”
“My dog only stayed with Kim for one night but I am super happy with the care he got, I received multiple photos and updates that put my mind at ease. Will rebook with Kim in the future!”
“I had an unusual situation in that the dog (Tabitha) belonged to my deceased father (in another town) and I needed to bring her here to get her spayed and re-homed. Tabitha was going through a lot of adjustments and Cierra and Tanner took Tab in and loved on her and made her feel safe! In the few days under their care, Tabitha quickly became more comfortable and clearly felt safe! I will forever be grateful for the love and support you gave Tabitha during these tricky times!! You two have been our personal angels. Thank you, thank you!!”
“Katey was wonderful! She took great care of my cat, so much so that I'm not sure Starfall wanted to come home. :) She updated me with photos and videos, and was very attentive to Starfall's needs. She's very friendly and easy to work with. I plan on having Starfall stay with her in the future!”

Jennifer and her family were very loving to my dog. He has a hard time being away from me but I felt good knowing he was being loved on while I was gone. Jennifer had great communication and gave me updates throughout the weekend. Would highly recommend her to watch your pet :)
It was great to work with Kristin, She was flexible with our requirements, quick to respond and sent back cute pictures while we were away. Of course, our dog is cute. It was a very comfortable process and I felt like we were leaving our dog with extended family. She did very well for her first time away from us. Good to have this resource for future trips.
Yvonne took awesome care of my puppy Hazel. It was the first time we were away from her and was worried about her adjusting to a different environment. She did great and Yvonne shared pictures and videos everyday so we could see how she was doing. I would recommend Yvonne and will definitely book her again when we travel.
We’re so grateful to Scott and his family for taking such wonderful care of Benson! A big thank you to his son and his kids as well for making sure Benson got plenty of walks and attention. We really appreciate everything you all did to make his stay so comfortable and welcoming!
We appreciated how communicative Tonya was while watching our pup. She sent us lots of pictures and gave us regular updates. We knew our girl was well taken care of and having lots of fun with other animals and family members! We’ll definitely have Tonya sit our dog again!
I can’t recommend Pamela enough! She took such wonderful care of our sweet George. She’s truly unmatched in caring promptness and will give your pup a consistent mix of exercise, play, and rest. She was also so helpful and accessible when we had a last-minute change of plans. Thank you for being the best 🫶
Jo is fantastic. She is detail oriented, gentle, kind, and thoughtful in caring for my pup. She communicates concise and effectively letting me know how my pup is doing. I would rate her 10/10 and she is highly recommended. To be honest, I wish I can rate less because if she gets too popular she might not be available for me, haha...
We left our dog Buckey with Bradley for the night of the 4th of July, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. He followed all the care instructions perfectly and took Buckey on an adventure to a dog park, sending us pictures that showed just how happy and comfortable Buckey was. Buckey got along really well with their dog, which was also amazing. The fact that Buckey didn’t try to escape tells us he felt safe and at ease. We highly recommend !
I’m so glad I found Leanne! I needed a last minute sitter and she was available and very accommodating. My dog requires some extra care and Leanne provided that without hesitation. I felt immediately that my dog would be safe and comfortable in her home and she was! I will definitely book with Leanne again.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Lacey is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $60 per night.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Lacey can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s 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 dog’s 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 Lacey home-away-from-home, 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 Lacey.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Lacey 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 , 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 .
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.
