“Kimberly was absolutely amazing , gave me constant updates of my boy and pictures and made him feel at home . By far the best person you can have watch your animal while you’re gone . God bless”
“Rachel has met my expectations; my husky enjoyed his stay. I had no issues with communicating, dropping off, or pick up times with Rachel. I would recommend and continue having Racheal as my husky Dog-sitter when she's available.”
“Annmarie did a fantastic job taking care of our 3 month old fur baby!. Her communication while watching our fur baby was great and we appreciated receiving pictures of her playing and getting all the cuddles. We will absolutly book Annmarie for any future dog sitter needs and highly recomend her!!.”
“She was very wonderful! We requested same day boarding to house hunt! Bambi loved it she was able to get her energy out and play with other dogs! Every picture I receive Bambi had a big smile ! We will be contacting Jerrie again if Bambi needs another lovely stay for a few days!”
“Our two pups just completed their first stay with Deidre and we couldn’t be happier on the care they received and the communication she had with us. We hope that she will have the availability to care from them in the near future but anticipate that she will grow in popularity due to her 1st class service!”
“We picked up our healthy and happy pups after their week-long stay with Lauren and Dalton. They ensured a safe meet and greet at their house prior to booking and were just such sweet people. I'm sad that they're moving, because that means we won't be able to have them watch our doggos again. They sent updates and pictures while we were away. Truly a wonderful experience.”
“Great service all around. I will be recommending Ethan to friends and family. Next time we go out of town Ethan will be my first call when our little furry friend needs a second home.”
“Leslie was lovely to work with and she took great care of our pup! She sent updates/photos, took suzie on lots of walks, and suzie came back to us healthy and happy. Already booking with her again!”
“Kaylee treated my pups like her own and spoiled them with love and affection during their stay. They got lots of play time. It was such a great stay for them and a huge relief for myself. I could relax knowing they were in good hands.”
“Odaly’s did amazing taking care of our two dogs for our trip. She gave plenty of updates while we were gone and the pups really seemed to enjoy her. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Marianne took great care of our doodle, Teddy, for a week of boarding. They took Teddy for frequent long walks, let her sprawl on their couch and sleep in their bed, and treated her like their own. Communication was great, and we received daily updates with photos/videos. We would definitely book with Marianne again!”
“Jasmine was awesome! She took great care of our dog and we will be using her moving forward, she sends lots of pictures and even took our dog on a few runs! She has a nice backyard so he can play too.”
“Taylor was absolutely fantastic! We boarded our German Shepherd with her for 16 days while we took an extended trip. She communicated with us frequently to let us know how he was doing and sent many pictures, which we greatly appreciated. We will absolutely book with her again.”
“It’s always a relief when you can leave your pet in good hands. Our dog Millie got lots of attention, was able to lay out in the sun (her favorite thing). And got lots of exercise. Excellent care.”
“Rebecca and her family were a great match for my dog who gets so sad when I am gone for a long period. They took good care of his needs and there was always lots of activity and attention for him from Rebbeca, her three sons and her husband. Thanks for taking good care of Loki, so I didn't have to worry about him.”
“Angela was the most excellent sitter for my newly deaf Westie. She was flexible (could extend if needed, dropped off at my location), personable and Keili fit right into the chill house vibe with her friendly pugs. Took on the daily meds and feeding instructions (substantial) and sent regular updates and pix. I cannot say enough good things about Angela as a sitter. If she is still doing sitting I will definitely be seeking her out next year when I return. Thanks, Angela!”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Rainier is $27 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $34 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.

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.
96% of sitters in Rainier 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 Rainier home-away-from-home, 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 Rainier.
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 Rainier 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 , 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 .
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.
