“Charis and family were friendly to us and welcoming to Ariel. She was good about sending periodic updates and photos of how Ariel was doing during her stay. Ariel seemed happy and doing well when we picked her up.”
“Rachael was wonderful! She helped me out when I was stuck. I have an anxious dog at times and she seamed to transition well and did great with Rachael and her household! Thanks again!”
“A friend recommended David to me, and I’m so glad they did! My schedule is incredibly hectic, but they were so patient, understanding, and kept me updated with great communication the entire time. I absolutely loved getting all the picture updates. Most importantly, my pup came home so happy and he made some new friends. I highly recommend!”
“Really appreciate how attentive and caring Miranda was after our dog had a medical emergency. She communicated with us often and provided lots of photos and videos! It put our minds at ease knowing he was being so well taken care of.”
“Mckenna was absolutely the best! I felt reassured knowing my dog Sebastian was in good hands. Thank you for being kind, communicative, and keeping me in the loop with daily updates, especially daily Sebastian photos! 🐶 I’m really happy to hear he made new Shih Tzu friends as well. Sebbie and Ollie and Jaxx forever! Thank you for providing a safe and welcoming environment for my dearest pup. Thanks again for everything - I hope to stay in touch for future bookings on Rover. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“Melissa took great care of our pup while we were out of town. She sent daily updates with lots of pictures and kept our very active dog engaged with lots of walks and play time. Thank you Melissa!”
“Sent videos throughout vacation. Picked up Mister and he was fed, as well as in a happy mood. Good compliments about playing with other dogs we appreciate. Would book with Miriam again. Affordable and great location. ❤️”
“Our dog stayed with Sara for 10 days. She and her pup were a great match for us! Sara responded quickly to messages and Chevvy is as sweet as can be. Sara clearly loves the dogs she sits as much as she loves her own and we were grateful for that!”
“My dog LOVED her stay with Elizabeth and her family. It was a huge relief to know that she was well taken care of during my vacation. That knowledge allowed me to focus on my trip and enjoy myself. I’m definitely going to book with Elizabeth again.”
“Jenny is amazing. I have left my shi-tzu with her several times and always had prompt communication, and pet came back very happy. I can tell her family loves animals and I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my pup with her again!”
“Colleen and her husband were perfect. It’s clear they understand dogs and know how to make them feel comfortable. Odin enjoyed our initial visit, and when we came back two months later for the drop off it was clear he was excited and happy to be there. We will absolutely ask them to watch Odin again.”
“Marden was flexible and responsive, providing regular updates! I felt comfortable leaving my pup with him on a last minute trip I had to take - I would highly recommend!”
“We had an amazing experience with Leslie. She is so professional and caring. She treated our pup like her own by spoiling him with car rides to the park, walks, treats, and toys. She kept us updated with pictures and videos. We felt confident he was receiving attention and care while we were away on vacation for a week. We cannot recommend Leslie enough!!”
“Yuna was an absolute gem to have caring for Pixel! From the start she was proactive, thoughtful, and clearly put his wellbeing first. She always checked with us before giving him any food or treats, which meant a lot given how careful we are with his diet. She sent constant updates with photos, so we never had to wonder how he was doing. Pixel got plenty of exercise and came back happy, relaxed, and well looked after. You can tell Yuna genuinely loves what she does. Reliable, communicative, and caring. I would 100% recommend her and will absolutely book her again! A special shout out to Mocha who was an Excellent doggo, he and pixel became good friends :)”
“Vadzim was great with my sweet girl Lucy. He sent lots of photos, and was very communicative. My pup is very clingy and requires lots of cuddles and I feel very confident that she got that while I was away. Would highly recommend!”
“Heather took excellent care of my dog. I appreciated her responsiveness to communicating logistics and the updates she shared while caring for my dog. I would absolutely recommend her.”

Robin and her family were very accommodating and flexible with their schedule for pick up and drop off for Mia. We appreciated the daily updates, from the pictures we received it seems like Mia was relaxed and comfortable. She had other pups to play with which is great. Thank you for watching Mia!
Alex did a great job watching our 3 pups! She sent lots of photos and kept us updated on how they were doing. She was flexible with pickup and drop off times as well. We felt comfortable knowing our pups were staying with her! She has a large yard with plenty of room to play. Highly recommended!
We love Tiffany. We never go on vacation unless she is available. She sends pictures of my pups having fun, messages how they are doing, and gives them loads of love and attention while they are away from their family. Her home is always clean, the backyard accessible, and plenty of toys and pup sleeping spots. We highly, highly, recommend Tiffany! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Khayl is wonderful to work with and took such good care of my boys! My son-in-law recommended her to me and now I know why. Khayl has been so accommodating, friendly and gave us plenty of updates and videos of them while we were gone. Will definitely be using her services again! Thank you Khayl!
Melissa and her family did such a good job taking care of Luna for a LONG 17 days! Luna is high energy and needed a place to feel safe but also a home away from home, and Melisaa provided that. She sent daily photos of Luna. Luna loved playing with her sons and Wishbone, the family dog. We will use Melissa again and recommend you give her a try!
Emma is the best! I really appreciated the quick communication regarding drop off and pick up times, and the pictures and updates she sent throughout the day while watching my pup! He had so much fun with Emma and Lani, and I felt so at ease knowing how well he was being taken of!
I dropped my dogs off with Becca and Zach so that I could leave to go to Denver! I was very anxious due to not leaving for over a year and having to find a new dog sitter! I definitely did not give them enough credit for the amazing people they are! They answered all of my absolutely outrageous amount of “how are the dogs doing? Questions. During our meet and greet I came with a folder full of any question or piece of information I could come up with and they answered every one of them. I received more pictures than I had expected. They let me know how they were doing while I was on my way to the airport to ease my anxiety of leaving my dogs. Overall, when it comes to my dogs I’m a very very anxious person, I can’t recommend Becca and Zach enough! They went above and beyond to help me to feel better. I will definitely be booking with them again in the future.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Port Orchard
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Port Orchard is $48 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $61 per night. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 5,380 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Port Orchard. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
92% of sitters in Port Orchard 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 Orchard 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 Orchard.
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 Port Orchard 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.
