“Barbara is the perfect sweetheart to leave your pup with. Uly felt so at home with her …immediately! Her back yard is divine for zoomies and she even took Uly different places for walks… like a surprise daily field trip!! He was such a happy kid we we picked him up. Barbara’s a gem you can trust :) with your pup!”
“BEST ... PET … SITTER …. EVER!!! No worries while away!!! You pet is in great hands. Thank you so Rachel!!! Especially the pictures ? and communicating promptly!!!”
“Lauren is seriously the best. My pup had a great time staying with her, as usual! You can really tell that she loves and cares for animals. I feel very comfortable leaving my pup with her and would recommend her to anyone!”
“We left our five year old English Cream Golden Retriever (Jake) with Matt and Sander for a week while we were travelling. Prior to our trip we did a meet and greet so that all parties would feel comfortable when it came time for our trip. We were very impressed with the thought and care that were put into planning a space that would allow visiting dogs to feel comfortable and as close to home as possible. The property is spacious with a fenced area for the dogs to play or just hang out. Inside the home the dogs are free to wander, snooze or play with the resident golden retriever (Artie). One of the many things that we really appreciated was knowing that Jake would have at least one dog companion during his stay. We also appreciated Matt and Sander's policy to limit the number of dogs staying at any one time. This allows the dogs to get the proper attention during their stay. Matt and Sander's son Logan loved playing with Jake and Jake can't get enough kid companionship so this was a real bonus. The photos of Jake that we received during our trip assured us that Jake was enjoying his time at doggy camp. We look forward to the feeling of comfort the next time we leave Jake with Matt, Sander, Logan and Artie! Many thanks to all of you! Tim and Kim”
“My "Ivy" is always happy to go to Lori & Gary's home. She gets good care. They have a beautiful home & fenced property that she can run in. I highly recommend Lori & Gary for excellent dog care!”
“Angela was SO amazing. She was referred to me by my neighbor and did NOT disappoint. She was quick to reply to any and all messages and was super friendly and accommodating. She was picking up my neighbors dogs the same day and offered to pick mine up to which saved me so much time! She was great about updating me on my pup while we were out of town and even took initiative and gave him a bath when he seemed to be a little itchy. 10/10 recommend and will be booking her in the future! Thank you so much Angela and family! Ripley had the best time!”
“Mike is an excellent pet sitter and I would not hesitate to call on him again! He treated Fox like he was his own. He got plenty of walks and potty breaks, and individual attention he would not have had elsewhere. Fox loved his stay, no bones about it! Thank you, Mike, for taking such good care of our senior pup.”
“I am so thankful we met Wan and her family. Wasabi stayed a few days said he was very happy with walks and treats. He made new friends 🧡 I trust Wan and hope we get to visit again soon. All the pups she watches seem very happy. I love she sen daily pics of Sabi and friends. It helped us be at ease during vacation. Sabi can be picky eater he loves snacks but not so much his kibble Hope she will have him as a guest again He thoroughly enjoyed his vacation!”
“Our dog had an excellent time as evidenced by the photos and video we received. Karissa and team listened to our concerns and provided a great experience for a week long stay. Our dog had never been boarded before and the team bent over backwards to make sure it would be a good fit before the boarding took place.”
“Melody is awesome! She sent me tons of pictures and even took my dog to Mudbay. My dog was very at home there, got her own dog bed, and was able to cuddle on the couch for movie time. I would highly recommend Melody :)”
“She took such great care of my pup for a week long stay. Their dog Mack is very social and friendly and my dog LOVED playing with him. Knowing he always had a playmate made me feel even more confident in this whole experience (first time dog owner and boarding him longer than a day). He also got lots of snuggles from them and vice versa, I got regular updates, and we’re all happy. :) I’ll be booking with Kyah in the future, that’s for sure. 🫶”
“Thank you so much Isaac. Looked like Emma loved playing with your sweet dogs. She came home happy. We will most definitely your your boarding services again. We appreciated all of your updates and puctures. She certainly took advantage of all your amenities. She rules our house too. Im sad to say ;) Have a great Christmas. Ann and Emma”
“My Aussie Lucca had a wonderful stay with Jared and his family! She’s usually pretty nervous around new people, but Jared and Ronda were so patient and helped her feel comfortable. They took great care of her and kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout the day. I’d definitely recommend them for boarding nervous dogs!”
“Benny had such an incredible time with Denise! She was such an incredible sitter and I was completely worry free the entire time I was away. She regularly sent me updates and pics several times a day. Don’t even hesitate in leaving your pup with Denise. She’s incredible and I know Benny is looking forward to staying with her again! Thank you Denise for taking such good care of Benny 💕”
“They were wonderful with our little pomeranian. I was worried about leaving her overnight because she gets separation anxiety, but they sent me lots of videos and pictures and it looks like she had a blast! I would definitely recommend them, they are such a kind and caring couple.”
“Michael was great with our dog, and provided constant updates and pictures to us for the duration of the stay. Would highly recommend and will certainly use again.”

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Port Discovery 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 Port Discovery 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 Port Discovery.
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 Port Discovery. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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 Port Discovery 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.
