“So happy I found Charis to take care of my dogs. They were very well taken care of while my family was out of town. Charis is a “dog person “ and very understanding of my elderly dogs needs. She was good to send pictures and updates. I can tell when my dogs are stressed but they were very relaxed when I picked them up! I will definitely use Charis again!”
“James is hands down the best dog sitter I have ever had. He is communicative throughout the whole process, he’s a true animal lover and he actively shows his love to your pet while under his care. I could tell by my pet Apollos behavior that he didn’t want to leave James when I picked him up. They went for hikes, walks and he got tons of snuggles and cuddles. James is not your typical dog sitter, he’s above average in every way and I wish I lived closer to him to use him every week!!!”
“Scooby was treated like a king! Kayla’s kids always made sure he was nice and comfortable. Her husband took him on runs and he was made to feel like part of the family. We will definitely use Kayla again.”
“Lorelei is amazing! She makes sure that my dog eats (which has been a problem when he is away from home), he gets plenty of exercise and enjoys spending time with other dogs. Lorelei really takes the worry out of leaving our sweet boy. Highly recommend her! Thank you!”
“Mousse enjoyed himself so much he’s still sleeping this morning! We know he was well cared for and had a mini-vacation himself while we were away for the weekend. Thank you!!”
“Mike was great at communicating leading up to and during the boarding. Our dog Frankie warmed up to Mike and his wife Sherri very quickly. She got lots of exercise and was in such a happy mood when we picked her up. We were very happy to meet Mike and will be excited to have Frankie visit again.”
“Jordan and Trenton were awesome. We got tons of communication with photos and videos for the duration of the stay and when we picked our pup up he was super happy and tired out. Will definitely book again!”
“Awesome pet sitter, treated our pup like his own. Great communication and very inviting. Our pup didn’t want to leave. Definitely top tier pet sitter he’s worth the money!”
“It was my dog's first time boarding since I adopted him in January. He was so excited to see Kha and even happier to be able to run around a big yard with her dogs. Kha took great care of Wolfgang, treated him like he was past of their family and sent me lots of pictures and videos of his time there.”
“Hank had a wonderful time with Wynona and family! He was taken such good care of and went on lots of walks, socialized with people and pets and Wynona sent photos of my baby throughout his stay. It was the first time I've ever had anyone babysit my puppy and it could not have gone better. Thank you Wynona and family for taking such wonderful care of Hank!”
“Christie was a wonderful host to our 2 pugs. This was out first Rover experience and we could not have been happier. Christie sent us pictures and updates every day and even sent us home with portraits that will have us laughing and enjoying for years. We definitely plan to have Christie watch our babies again. They had so much fun and were very loved.”
“Kevin and his partner were fantastic! They took excellent care of Edgar while I was gone, and pampered him to boot! Edgar was very sad to leave Kevin's side, and he had to be carried out.”
“Thank you for taking excellent care of Plum!! It was a big help knowing she was in great hands with people who care about her. She’s looking forward to returning! Thank you!”
“Another fantastic experience with Maria! Her care and attention are truly a reflection for her love of animals. She provides an exceptional environment of well-being and support and is highly responsive, providing great updates and focusing on the details that make boarding for my pet and absolute delight and peace of mind. Highly recommend and will continue to frequent!!! Thank you so much Maria! We love you!!!”
“Terrific in every way. Our dog was clearly happy and healthy upon pick-up from a boarding stay. Excellent professional clear communication from the meet and greet on.”
“Melissa did a wonderful job caring for our dogs while we were away for two weeks. I loved the photos and videos she sent of the dogs playing and hanging out with our family. I’ve already rebooked her for our next trip!”
“Donna was great with my 10 year old Lhasa while I was on vacation. She is well educated on animal care and made sure Henry took his daily medication and got regular snuggles. She sent pictures every evening and the images of him napping on her lap and lounging in her backyard were so comforting. I highly recommend Donna and will definitely use her services again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Port Orchard
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!
John is a saint and Remy loves him so much. This was Remy’s first stay at John’s new location and it went extremely well. John kept him safe on all drives and walks. He even gave him a bath. We are truly lucky to have John in our lives and plan to keep working with him (Remy can’t wait to go back).
Lisa went above and beyond!! She always gives our girl the best experiences. She was kind enough to keep Sopa for extra time to accommodate our needs. She is reliable, friendly, communicative, responsible, and timely. She’s our go-to every time! We love Lisa! Sopa especially loves her stays with her!
I’m so glad we booked with Alex! Junie is a super shy dog but she looked comfortable and happy in Alex’s care. She loved exploring the big yard and snuggling with the pack at night. Alex sent as lots of pictures and updates to tell us how things were going. She was very sweet with our girl and we’re excited to book with her again. Thank you, Alex!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Port Orchard on Rover is $47.73 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 5,433 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 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.
91% of Port Orchard 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 Port Orchard 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 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.
