“Mollie did a fantastic job. Our dog was well cared for and loved during her stay. Mollie sent lots of update with photos of our dog happily playing and hanging around the house. Easy to recommend Mollie.”
“Duke and I are so glad we found Kayle! We have booked two stays with her, one being an 11 day stay (with a 3rd one coming up soon!) and she has been nothing short of amazing. She is very attentive to Duke and has treated him like her own since the first night. She is very flexible which is a bonus for me as I am active duty military (100% recommend). We have definitely found our Washington sitter in Kayle and will continue to book with her for as long as she will have us!! You can feel very comfortable and confident in Kayle’s ability to care for your pet. She keeps open communication through the entire stay and gives your fur baby lots of love while you’re away!! ❤️❤️ 🐶”
“Val did a great job with boarding my two huskies. She kept me updated about their meals and sent me pictures of everything they were doing. They were so tired from exercising at her place that they fell asleep as soon as I brought them home. I’m so happy to have finally found a reliable and caring dog boarding place.”
“Tony and Krista are fantastic sitters. They are genuine and reliable, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. It’s great to feel free to travel and know that your pet is well cared for.”
“Highly recommend. Had full confidence having Marlo stay with Priscilla while we had to fly out of town. Updates were great, so many walk pictures that I know Marlo had a great time! You can tell Priscilla loves these pups, it shows and it is appreciated!”
“Gisella always takes great care of my bulldog Walter. He loves going there and getting to play with Gisella’s dog Brownie. Gisella is always communicative and flexible, would 100% recommend.”
“Rupert had such a great time with Loc. He updated me daily with multiple videos and photos. This was the first time I boarded Rupert over night with someone who wasn't a family member. With the updates and knowing Rupert got outside and walks in I was very comfortable. Will be using him again!”
“Jenn is my go to dogsitter anytime I travel! It’s lovely to be able to enjoy my travel knowing my dogs are safe and having a great time. My dogs love Jenn and her family, plus her playful pup!”
“This is our 3rd time using Kristin and we have her booked again for May. She's amazing with Weatherly! Attentive, caring, kind, and my dog truly is part of the family. So much so that when we come to get Weatherly, she's always sad when we get home. Kristin is fantastic, you're pet will be loved & well cared for with her.”
“We have used Rover sitters several times now and Diahann has been by far the best we’ve used and we will definitely use her in the future for our two small dogs. Our dogs are picky when it comes to food and admittedly kind of spoiled and high maintenance but they did great at Diahann’s and she provided us with plenty of pics and videos so we didn’t worry about them. They eat special food (mainly human food) and when they ran out Diahann took it upon herself to cook them chicken and rice (which is one of the main dishes they eat). We highly recommend Diahann — her rates are a bargain considering she is by far the best dog sitter we’ve found on Rover.”
“Kyley is so wonderful!! She took such great care of our elderly dog and always kept us updated so that we never had any worries. I could not recommend her enough!! I really am so appreciative to Kyley, she’s the sweetest!!”
“Peggy and Bob are so awesome, I loved receiving updates and pictures about my little fur baby. He just loved them and was very comfortable hanging around them. I will definitely have them watch my little guy again.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Brent and his family cared for our little Dottie like she was his own. His daughters are great with Dottie, and his dogs are friends of hers now too. We had a long time away from home, and we were at ease knowing that she was happy and well take care of with Brent and crew. Thanks for the updates and sweet photos!”
“Brittany took great care of Bert! She knows dogs which is extremely helpful having an old man doggo. Her and her husband are cool and collected and love animals. This shines thru. I fully recommend them.”
“First time using rover and found Noelle to be a great fit for our 2 bigger dogs. She has years of experience with animals and it shows in her attention to detail and the level of care she provided. We got updates with pictures and videos all through their stay. She took them on walks, they got a chance to play with her own dogs. They came back to us happy and worn out! We will definitely use Noelle again!”
“Second visit and there will definitely be more. I knew my pup was happy when he was so excited to be back and left a little present from his excitement! Loved the daily photos and communication. Made a work trip so much less stressful.”
“We were nervous about getting a pet sitter for our dog, Daisy. She can be dog - and people - selective, and can be skittish around new people, or even a bit sassy if she doesn't like them. She is also a "velcro" dog who has separation anxiety when we have to leave her. She took to Tobi and her family right away, and even liked Tobi's dog, Rocky. She was content to sit with her "new pack" on the couch and even slept with them in bed! She also loved Tobi's back yard and garden! I am so glad that both Daisy and Tobi had a good experience. We will definitely book with Tobi again, and recommend her, especially for small, anxious dogs!”
“Keana was a life saver this weekend and she and Milo just clicked. I was nervous about their interaction since it was the first time meeting but milo was a good boy per usual. We will definitely see her again ❤️”
“Duri and her entire family were incredibly loving and caring towards our little girl. Ellie's days were filled with multiple walks, playtime and snuggle time! Ellie is 19 months old, VERY energetic and VERY curious. She wants to be in the middle of everything and Duri and her husband made Ellie feel like she was part of the family. Duri immediately put my husband and I at ease because she has a quiet confidence and comfort around dogs. She is obviously very experienced with all types of dogs and she immediately knew how to handle Ellie with gentle firmness. We met with multiple sitters before we met Duri and we feel so fortunate to have found her! We highly recommend her - she dog sits because she loves dogs, first and foremost, payment is secondary. Thank you Duri (and husband and son and granddaughter and grandson)!!!”

This is our second time booking Vonnie and Kevin and they took great care of our girl while we were gone. They sent pictures daily and had good communication. Our dog recently started new medications and she is a bit picky about them and rhey did a great job ensuring meds were administered. When we picked up our dog it was clear to us that she was well cared for and enjoyed the attention and care she was given there.
Toby gets so excited arriving at Dina and Irma's home that he forgets I'm even there. 😅 I'm never worried about how Toby is doing because of their consistent communication and seeing how happy and healthy Toby is when I see him again. Toby just loves them and their home!
I had such a great stay! I loved running around the yard, playing with the other dogs, and getting lots of treats and attention. My humans said the communication was excellent—they received updates and knew I was having a wonderful time. I’d definitely love to come back for another stay!
Rebecca is fantastic! She is the first and only person we have left our puppy with. The first stay was around 8 months, and we have since scheduled multiple. She is very reassuring, communicative and nurturing. We get lots of updates and her family is genuinely excited for Bogey to visit. Gives me great piece of mind, he always comes back tired and happy from a stay full of stimulation and cuddles!
Cats Upstairs was a perfect place for our two cats while we were away for a week. Renate took excellent care of them, played with them daily, and sent frequent updates with photos and videos, which gave us real peace of mind. The space is clean, comfortable, and clearly designed with cats in mind. I would absolutely recommend Renate and Cats Upstairs to anyone looking for a caring, reliable cat sitter.
Dee Anne is such a sweetheart and we're so grateful for how she takes care of Max! He is so excited to spend time with her with all the quality play time and rest and adventures they have. It's a little vacation for him to stay with Dee Anne when we can't take him out of town with us and it's so meaningful to us that she's so genuinely loving, thoughtful, and kind!
Oly-dog had a great time during his week-long stay. Xavier helped put me at ease through clear communication, responsiveness, and follow-through with Oly's care plan. I'm myself a sitter with about 1,000 bookings through Rover, so I know a good-one from a lackluster-one; Xavier makes the cut. Oly would stay again.
This was our first time using Rover and Aliesha and we’re really glad we did. She took great care of our two boys. We knew after our meet and greet that her and her sweet dog Otto would be perfect for our pups. They seemed to fit right in and got along perfectly. Our boys came home happy healthy and exhausted from all the play time! Will definitely use again!!
Trina is awesome! She takes such great care of Max, helps him have lots of play time with her pups who he loves, and is very communicative with me on what he's up to which I really appreciate. She has helped when Max needs daily eye drops and gives him his daily dental treat which is so helpful so he can have consistency. Max has an amazing time and is always so excited to have sleepovers with Trina, Bruiser, and Peaches.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Lakewood on Rover is $42.08 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 3,834 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lakewood. About 91% of Lakewood 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.
