“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!”

“Tally, my cocker spaniel, had the best vacation ever! She got to play ball in the backyard, go for walks and even went to Starbucks for Pupachinos. Thank you for the photos and updates while I was fishing in Alaska - it gave m peace-of-mind to know that she was happy.”

“Cynthia did a great job watching Sparky. She took him the dog park nearby where Sparky and her dog played and had a great time. They also ran around and played a lot in her fenced backyard. She also sent a lot of videos of Sparky, which was nice.”

“Kimberly was amazing with my dog. She is friendly, kind and very understanding. My dog had a great experience with Kimberly, I had daily pictures and updates. My dog was in good hands, I will recommend Kimberly to others and will use her service again.”

“This was 15 month old Annebelle’s first boarding experience and she was nervous and cautious. Sarah met us at the door, got down to Annebelle’s level to greet her, and slowly introduced her to new surroundings. We could see Annebelle perk up when Sarah's children met Annebelle. Sarah sent photographs to show how Annebelle was adjusting. We could tell from the photos that Annebelle was having a good time p]laying with other dogs. We would not hesitate to leave Annebelle with Sarah in the future.”

“Deidre is the best! She took care of our two very energetic dogs for four days and it went great! Deidre is an excellent communicator and a wonderful dog whisperer. We’ll definitely be asking for her to care for the dogs again.”

“When Beebe lost her bonded pair, she experienced separation anxiety and is challenging to leave on her own or with other care givers. I appreciate Kelsey's willingness to care for her very much.”

“Our dogs love staying at Rachael’s! They are super tired from all their play when we pick them up. Rachael keeps me updated and sends pictures. We will keep bringing our pups!”

“Teri is Amazing. Kind, gentle and very caring. I highly recommend her. Addie told me she never wants to go anywhere else!! Thank you so much Teri. Nikki and Addie”

“I was blown away by April's positive attitude and dedication to caring for my golden retriever. She meticulously created a safe, pack-like environment where the dogs felt at home, and the areas were exceptionally clean. Even more impressive were her plans to enhance her already wonderful outdoor space. As a side note, April is a certified dog trainer. Shortly after dropping off my dog and running errands in town, I noticed her diligently and patiently leash-training my dog during a walk, as my GPS took me back past her location. April never mentioned this task on Rover or in person; she simply did it on her own time, free of charge, without boasting. Her quiet integrity and humility are extraordinarily impressive. Best Rover experience so far!”

“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!”

“So glad we found Elizabeth her place was perfect for our 5 year old husky. She kept in regular communication and sent great pics while we were away to reassure us things were going well. Will definitely be using in the future!”


“My dogs always have an amazing time with Kendra! She sends pictures and is excellent at communicating. I feel really comforted that when I drop my dogs off they RUN to get inside and are just so excited!”


“Top notch intuitive sitter with a keen eye for my dog's unique mental and physical wellbeing. I feel confident in her ability to provide the care and support for my Dog with a severe food allergy. I was also pleased that her partner also was aligned with providing a watchful eye for her too.”

“Mo was well taken care of and really enjoyed being at Michaels house with Ruby. It was so nice to be able to trust that she was in good hands! He sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend & she was a happy puppy when picked up. Michael may become Mo’s go-to friend when it’s time to go out of town again!”
“Angela is amazing! My dog, Sadie developed a medical issue right before I was supposed to drop her off. After getting Sadie treated, Angela was very accommodating and administered her medication while in her care and kept me updated on her condition. I appreciated the special treats, pictures, and updates. You can immediately see Angela’s love of animals when you meet her. I am very happy with the level of care Sadie received!”

“We did a trial “doggy day care” with Reagan prior to a weekend boarding with our dog, just to make sure it was a good fit — when we brought our pup back the following weekend she was very excited to pull up to the house! Reagan is a very efficient communicator, and appears to be a responsible dog-sitter! We will happily be using her services again!”

“THE BEST FUR BABIES SITTER EVER!!!!! Belinda was amazing with my girls. Sent me daily updates and photos. Both of my Dachshunds looks so happy in the photos she provided me I was a little concerned they would want to come home! 😅🤗. I am sure my Violet and Dahlia are missing Belinda very much. I am sure both of my girls are looking forward to me leaving town for another business trip so they can be under her care again.”

“Conor is awesome! Highly recommend. He was super attentive and made sure Finn had a great time. It’s nice knowing my dog gets a little vacation of his own when I’m away :)”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Port Townsend on Rover is $66.6 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 .

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.
