“Barbara is great! Outstanding communication from start to finish. And most importantly, our quirky little Molly seemed immediately at home. She can be unpredictable in her eating and eliminating habits, and also needs a daily medication but Barbara was understanding, patient and took it all in stride and I was fully confident that Molly was in good hands and we could enjoy our pet free holiday. I highly recommend her and she will be our first choice to care for Molly.”
“Belinda has dog jedi skills. they just know she's the best. my pup was really happy when i picked him up. she runs a very organized business and is a professional. can't go wrong with this one! A+”
“I felt very comfortable with leaving Willow in Reagan’s care. She is the first one that stood out to me on Rover. Her smile and reviews of others that have left their pets with her, let me know she would be a good choice! She was super good about letting me know how Willow was doing, by sending pictures and telling me what she has done. Willow has to take meds twice a day and Reagan made shire I knew it was going well with that too. I will definitely use her again!”
“This was my first time booking Rover and I was extremely nervous to have someone looked after our dog overnight. I picked Kelsey as her profile seemed a good fit for Boo. Kelsey was proactive and offered to have a video call with us before the actual onboarding date. Kelsey is very professional and caring and welcoming to Boo! Not to mention, her cute and friendly dog Frankie! They have a nice sized yard for Boo to run around and play. Kelsey kept us updated about Boo’s trips and activities. My anxiety and fear went away- we just want the best for our fur baby when it comes to proper care. Boo returned with a huge smile on his face and a wagging tail. I highly recommend Kelsey.”
“We are so lucky to have Daisy & her family take care of Corkey again. He’s always so happy and well-cared for. I especially like that the whole family is involved in the care. No hesitations with asking them to take our Corkey again!”
“Even though my dog caused them a lot of trouble, Kevin&Kayla still loved my dog until the end. I'm grateful to them. They are very nice people. If they would allow me, I would like to ask them again.”
“Pepper had the best time with Debra over the last couple days! Debra was a great communicator and sent some cute pictures during the stay. Pepper loves running around her property and interacting with all the new smells and animals! We will definitely be reaching out to Debra again for our overnight dog sitting needs :)”
“Alisa was great! We felt out dog was very well cared for and looked like he had a great time, fron the photos that were shared. We recommend Alisa and she would be our first thought when needing someone to care for our dog in the future.”
“Bianca took great care of my dog! We got daily updates and she was wonderful with communication. It was clear our dog was happy and well cared for. We really appreciated everything and highly recommend Bianca!”
“This is the 3rd time I have left Loki in Dawn’s care. Dawn has became a trusted pet sitter for us. As always she has looked after Loki as if she was one of her own. I greatly appreciate Dawn’s regular updates and photos during Loki’s stay that help to keep my mind at ease & see how much Loki enjoys her time with her. 5 “woofs” from Loki & 5 stars from me. I’d definitely recommend Dawn’s services! Thank you very much, Dawn!!”
“Lauren was so kind and loving with my Gus! It was the first time I've left him with a pet sitter, and he loved it! I appreciated the video & photos that Lauren sent to keep me posted, Thanks Lauren - Gus will be back! :)”
“Gus had the most amazing week! Lots of updates, I always knew how he was doing and didn’t feel the need to check in more. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! You will not be disappointed choosing Anqian and Alexandre!!!”
About: While I may be new to professional pet sitting, my husband and I have been dog owners for nearly 10 years, and our kids have grown up loving and caring for animals, so having pets around is a normal part of our family life. Caring for our own dog has given us a lot of hands-on experience with special dietary needs, administering medication, daily walks, and basic grooming. We understand how important it is to trust the people caring for your pet, and we will treat every pet in our care like they’re part of our own family. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom and homeschool my 3 kids, so we’re home quite a bit! Daily walks are already part of our normal routine, and we’ll be happy to include your pup. There will also be plenty of time for play, attention, and snuggles throughout the day. The longest we typically leave the house is about 3–4 hours, and that’s no more than twice a week. We have a fenced backyard. It is on the smaller side, but there is still plenty of room for a little play and fresh air. We also have baby gates in place to keep our toddler safely in areas where we can supervise him, and those will also be used to help keep pets safely separated when needed. We want every pet in our care to feel comfortable, safe, and at home while they’re with us.
“Christie and her little pal Jax took great care of Rosey for 2 nights and 3 long days. I felt that Rosey was in good, caring hands. I got updates throughout the day and I could see that Rosey was in a beautiful cozy environment with a new doggy pal by her side to pass the time, including adults around to ensure she was tended to which was all so reassuring. Thank you again Christie!”
“Allan is amazing. Every day our dog was with Allan, Allan took him for walks and he would send us photos. Our dog looked so happy. When we picked up our dog he was happy to see us but wouldn't get in our car to go home until he said goodbye to Allan.”
“Bill and Gerie have the personalities and environment that make a dog in their care instantly at ease and happy! Finn and I have been very fortunate to meet them and look forward to seeing them again.”
“Alanna was an amazing sitter for my dog Hunter, he is a senior dog with mobility challenges and she worked so hard to accommodate his needs. I loved the updates and pictures she send. I would definitely recommend Alanna as she was so understanding and caring.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Old Town is $50
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Old Town
Jennifer took exceptional care of Nora! We couldn't have been more pleased and to hear our puppers became part of the family made being aways from her a bit easier. We received daily updates and photos. Jennifer also took the first steps in carrying for a medical that arose just before we got home and continued with concern afterwards. We don't go away often without Nora, but it's great to know that there is another place she can call home when needed.
I recently entrusted my precious fur baby, Annie, to Jennifer, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. From the moment I dropped Annie off. Jennifer's calm, attentive demeanor set me at ease. Jennifer noticed small needs and cues from Annie, ensuring she was comfortable and content. She maintained a safe, clean environment, and promptly reported any concerns. Annie seemed genuinely happy and at ease with Jennifer, which is a testament to her warmth and patience. Jennifer was punctual, organized, and kept us updated with friendly, reassuring messages and photos. Having such trusted care gave us peace of mind and allowed us to focus on our day. If you’re looking for someone who combines professionalism with genuine love for babies, Jennifer is an excellent choice. We’ll definitely book her again.
Dilly was so well cared for while we were away. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was in loving and capable hands. I received regular updates and photos, which made the whole experience even better. Dilly came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. I would absolutely recommend and look forward to booking again with Jennifer.

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Old Town 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 Old Town 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 Old Town.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Old Town. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Old Town 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll 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.
