“As always, Sheri & Bill are a great comfort. Roscoe recognizes when we pull into their driveway and is happy when we see him run right up to their front door!”

“My two tiny ladies LOVE Tyler and Emily! It’s their home away from home. Puts my mind at ease knowing they’re well cared for and loving their vacation at Tyler and Emily’s.”

“I highly recommend Rachael!! She did amazing with my high energy, 1.5 year old, 60lb puppy! She sent many photos of him looking very happy playing with all the other dogs. She even did some leash training with him as well (with my request/permission)! I left with some helpful tips and pointers on how to better walk him. Also, she always responded immediately every time I had a question. Thank you Rachael!”

“Cynthia was absolutely wonderful with our pups! She sent us lots of photos and updates throughout their stay, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for. She truly goes above and beyond. She even gave our dogs a bath before we picked them up, and while they were there, they got to join in celebrating her dog’s birthday! She did the cutest birthday photo shoot and even sent our pups home with little goodie bags. Such a fun and thoughtful surprise! It’s clear Cynthia genuinely loves dogs and treats every one like family. Our pups came home happy, clean, and loved. We will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing sitter!”


“I highly recommend Sarah as a sitter! Our Australian Shepherd can be a little shy and Sarah gave her lots of attention and took her to the dog park and for long walks. What a great sitter, and really nice person too!!”

“He spoiled our boy! He took him walking daily. We got pictures of him walking and playing with other dogs. He brushed him. We felt our boy was loved and pampered. We would 100% recommend David.”
“Jennifer was really kind and upfront about caring for my dogs who have some anxiety. She has such knowledge and skill she could manage them with aplomb and it allows me to feel comfortable leaving them with her.”

“Lauren took such great care of Fox while we were gone. She and her son asked us great questions at our meet and greet that let us know he was in good hands. Her last minute flexibility was so appreciated so we could enjoy our trip. The photo updates let us know he was relaxed, cozy, and not anxious or distressed. Thank you Lauren!”

“Aarika was absolutely amazing!! She was flexible and communicative through our entire last-minute planning process. She sent daily progress updates and photos of our sweet boy smiling and having so much fun (and getting lots of pats, which he loves!!) We will absolutely be booking with Aarika again! :)”

“Barbara was great, she sent pictures while we were away, and I could tell she really cared. She answered all questions. Barbara's response was immediate, which is very nice when your doggie is somewhere else. Would book Barbara again. Dorrit Jensen”

“Haden is the best! Sam hasn’t spent much time away from the family, and he was instantly comfortable at Haden’s house. She sent us amazing pictures all weekend—the Sammers was positively (pawsitively) grinning in every photo. Her dog Merlin is the handsomest, sweetest welcoming committee, too. Dogs have tons of room to run at Haden’s and she is such a dog lover. Ten stars!”
“Our dog was well cared for and had fun while we were away. Brit made everything easy for us and helped make us feel comfortable leaving our dog for the first time. We will happily reach out again the next time it’s needed.”

“Belinda was my angel these past 7 days, she was wonderful with Gaia, accepted my request with very short notice and took care of my little one just like family. Definitely she is a animal lover, very profesional and kind. I was terrified of leaving Gaia with a stranger, but spent a full week out receiving daily pictures and updates of how she was doing, and she was very very happy. Last and very important, big fenced backyard, very well equipped for the service she offer. I highly recommend Belinda with my eyes closed.”

“April is amazing and her boarding is top notch. We're excited to have found an incredible teacher and can't wait to learn from her so we can get the same amazing results on our walks with our pups. She took the time to get to know us and each of our dogs. Her approach is structured and supportive. I can't recommend her enough!”

“Teri is truly the Dog Whisperer. I will never go elsewhere. Addie loves visiting/staying - which is Addie’s growling at me when it’s time to go home!! Wink!! Adore you, Teri”

“Nancy and Simon (her adorable pup) are the perfect hosts! Nancy took the best care of our older Annabelle and was so great about updates and pics. I would highly recommend Nancy! So happy that we found you! Thanks again, Diane P”

“Sarah was a wonderful caretaker to my pup. She took special care to follow his normal routine, kept me updated by text with photos and a small description of how that way went, and truly kept my pup happy. I wish I could give her more stars and im happy to have a permanent sitter choice on this app”

“This was our first time to board our dog with Mary and we couldn't be more happier. Mary was very responsive and took such a good care of our boy. We feel like our dog had planty of play time and a lot of love and pampering. Mary is someone that genuinely loves dogs. We and our dog were very happy!”

“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 :)”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Port Townsend on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 775 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Port Townsend. 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.
92% of Port Townsend 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 Townsend 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 Townsend 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 Townsend.
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 Townsend 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.
