Our dog loved his stay! Kris was very gentle and calm with Nimbus. He is great with communication and even sent us pictures of Nimbus while we were away. Great experience and would highly recommend Kris!

What an amazing individual and her little doggie, Zoe. Marybeth is super casual, interested, caring, and flexible. She understands pets and their importance. I loved her tree-lined neighborhood and the HUGE fenced backyard available for my little pupper to play. I've decided Marybeth's the one to trust with my little pup, Mia.

Elizabeth and Sterling were fantastic. I booked last minute without much time for a meet and greet, and not only did they oblige and still meet same day, they made me feel comfortable leaving my dog with them. Their dog Lilo is such a sweetheart as well! They provided updates and exercise and I knew my pup was in good hands. Thank you so much for your great care! And I'm sorry again for the late plane arrival on my return!

We are so grateful for Linda! She took such wonderful care of our dog, who has a spunky personality. Her daily updates were very thorough and gave us a great picture of his stay. Sometimes, it takes our dog a day or two to recover, but after his stay with Linda, he came home healthy, happy, and unstressed. It was his way of saying he had a wonderful time with Linda and can't wait to see her again.

After just moving to Oregon, I was put in a pinch. Had to travel back east for a funeral. I don't know anyone here yet and needed a dog sitter. Back to ROVER I went. That's when I found Amanda. On short notice she invited us over for a meet and greet. I always get worried when I have to leave da pooch behind. She's like my child. Amanda was warm and welcoming. She greeted us with a smile. After a short time, I knew she was the sitter for us. I was only gone for 4 days. The communication was great. She sent pics on a daily to give me the comfort knowing my Pooch was doing OK, and most of all HAPPY 😊. I have to travel again next month, and have already reached back out. Definitely a great choice. You won't be disappointed. I give ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and 👍👍

My experience with Sandy was excellent!! It was my first time boarding my dog at Sandy. She welcomed me and my dog, and we had a chat about my dog. She showed me where my dog would be going to stay and introduced other dogs. On the first day, she sent me my dog's photo and a little observation report about my dog. This was very kind of her. I did not have to worry how my dog was doing at a new place with other dogs. She seems to be very attentive and has a great awareness about dogs (e.g., how old ones act differently, eye sight, sleeping, etc.). She takes care of dogs like taking care of human babies.

Chelsea was an amazing sitter and I would definitely book with her in the future - she made our golden doodle feel right at home during our time away. She sent pictures everyday of the great time he was having with the other dogs & family and also kept me updated on how he was doing overall. When I needed to extend our time away due to unforeseen events, she accommodated with no issue at all and even dropped off our dog at a new sitter until we returned. I would highly recommend Chelsea as a great dog sitter!

We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter, Melody! She took excellent care of our two Border Collies, Finnegan and Olive, while we were away. Despite their energy and strong bond, she handled them with patience, kindness, and genuine care. Melody kept us updated with messages and photos, giving us peace of mind that they were happy and well cared for. We returned to relaxed, healthy dogs who had clearly received plenty of love and attention. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. Thank you, Melody, for taking such great care of our pups!

I can’t say enough good things about Kathy! She was wonderful, communicative, and very good to my senior boy. She sent updates with cute pictures and videos everyday. She even went above and beyond doing shorter more frequent walks for my pup and going the extra mile to make sure he ate (he’s the PICKIEST). My pup loved her and we will definitely be rebooking for future trips!

FAQs for Boarding - Milwaukie

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Milwaukie on Rover is $44.4 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 2,354 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Milwaukie. 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.

93% of Milwaukie 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 Milwaukie 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 Milwaukie 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 Milwaukie.

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 Milwaukie 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 OR 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.
