Elise and James took such good care of Moss. She got many walks a day, got to play with the neighbor dog, and got lots of cuddling. It was so nice to know she was in such good hands!

It’s Zoie’s first time to sleep over for 2 nights and Daisha and Tam did a fantastic job of taking good care of my pup. They welcomed the guidance I gave them on how to handle Zoie and followed them diligently. When I picked her up, she actually wanted to go back to their house lol. Zoie didn’t miss me at all which is a good thing, that means that she had a great time with them. Zoie is such a happy camper when she’s with Daisha and Tam as she gets lots of playtime and tender loving care. I have booked another onboarding with them for a week next month! Thanks Daisha and Tam for treating Zoie like your own dog.

Laila, fit us in at the last minute and was absolutely wonderful! My chihuahua is a bit much for a lot of people and he has a very strong bond to me. He liked Laila right away and I was able to leave him with a peaceful heart. She sent me so many pictures and videos that I never had to wonder if he was being cared for and happy. She showed me without me ever having to ask. I have never picked him up from a sitter when he did not run to me and jump in the car ready to go home. But, when Laila brought him outside to go home he wanted to go on their usual walk and was genuinely sad to leave. 11 out of ten! He is so calm and happy I’m so glad Laila was able to watch him for me this weekend!

Leah and Leio (and their kids) were so loving towards Luca and went out of their way to treat him like family during his stay :) We received updates and photos often, which we loved! When I mentioned that Luca likes to look out windows during the day, they made efforts to ensure that he could do just that at their house :) Another thing I appreciated was how much info they asked upfront in our meet and greet in order to meet all of Luca’s needs and understand the manners/rules he follows when he’s at home (e.g. no table food, sitting & waiting before taking his food). This was very considerate and showed a lot of respect for Luca’s norms :) Luca got lots of love, lots of walks, and lots of space to roam during his stay! We would bring Luca back to stay with them in a heartbeat! If you’re looking for a family that will love your dog like their own and do everything they can to make your pup at home while you’re away, Leah and Leio will be the right fit for you.

She sends me daily photo updates, is always quick to respond, and truly cares about Simon’s well-being. I always feel completely at ease knowing he’s in her care. I can’t recommend her enough!

While this 5 star review may read as alarming, we were in fact very pleased with Christopher and his response. We had a good meet and greet with Christopher and his dogs, our dogs played together and our dog Demi explored his yard area which we examined. Unfortunately when boarding her we learned something critical about Demi, the discovery process for which was very stressful for everyone involved. Our dog turns out to be able to jump to the top of a 6 foot wooden fence and walk along the top. We know this because Christopher was supervising and saw it happen. After she jumped down to the other side, he sprung into action. He was then able to corral her into another neighbor's front yard and called us as Demi was avoiding his attempts to recapture. We drove over and quickly located Christopher and the neighbors he had recruited and collected Demi who was happy and healthy. While Demi temporarily escaping to the neighborhood was shocking, Christopher's actions leading up to that were in line with our expectations and his actions in response were commendable.

Alora gave me a scare and stole chicken bones from the trash right before we were going to drop her off with Kirsten! We double and triple checked Alora wasnt going to need a vet visit, and Kirsten kindly accommodated a slightly later dropoff & some fasting + bland food requests the next day from the vet. That's thankfully as complicated as it got and Alora's stay was uneventful, but Kirsten kept this pet parent happy that Alora was in good hands and I was across the country for a few days 🙂 can't thank her enough.

Daria's the best! Took great care of my fur babies -- she sent lots of pictures and kept me up to date on how they were doing. They got walks and lots of attention! When I picked them up they didn't seem stressed at all. In fact, I think they had such a great time that I don't think they wanted to leave! I highly recommend Daria and will definitely book with her in the future.

We used Jennifer for boarding our dog and on the first night our dog started having some serious medical issues. Jennifer was very proactive about contacting me to let me know what was going on and sending pictures. My sister in-law ended up picking up my dog to take her to the vet and was able to work with Jennifer to arrange a pick up time. Since our time was cut short Jennifer was also proactive about helping me get a refund for the partial stay. Jennifer went above and beyond what I expected and I am very grateful! I am hoping to use her again in the future.

Rosalind was amazing with dog sitting my Shiba inu. He is a very high energy dog and she was able to make him feel right at home. Pictures were always provided and she'd frequently take him on dog walks. I believe he enjoyed his stay and would certainly book another boarding with Rosalind in the future, very appreciative of her help and service with caring for my dog for several weeks.

It was my first time using Rover, and I could tell my dog enjoyed staying with Chuk. She sent daily updates and was responsive to all my questions. I had to drop my dog off early in the morning and pick her up late at night, which can be challenging, but she was incredibly flexible with the timing. Thank you so much!

Vivian took care of my two nine year old Shar-Pei mixes for the weekend. The whole process was seamless, from the initial meeting to picking them up at the end of our weekend Vivian was always in contact with us. We asked for pictures and Vivian had no issue with that as we received daily updates. The dogs seemed to really enjoy their stay so we will definitely use Vivian again.

Jamie was so wonderful! The dog sitter we had lined up had a last minute change and couldn't watch our dog and Jamie was able to swoop in and take our dog! My dog came home rested and looking like she got a lot of cuddles and fun times chasing rabbits. Her house is just perfect for dogs to hang out outside. Thank you so much!

My dog gets nervous when staying with new people. She was especially upset when I dropped her off, waking Chris up throughout the night. Chris was so super kind and patient about it and my dog got so comfortable so fast and ended up having a great time! So grateful to Chris for taking my girl on such late notice and loving on her so good! Also the photo and video updates he sends are top notch.

Taylor was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Flossie, during an 8-night boarding stay while we were out of town in Florida. From the very first message, Taylor was kind, communicative, thoughtful, and incredibly reassuring. You can genuinely tell she has a heart for animals and creates a calm, loving environment for them. She kept us updated consistently with photos and messages throughout the trip, which gave us so much peace of mind. Flossie clearly became comfortable very quickly — cuddling on the couch, relaxing under blankets, going on walks, and getting lots of love and attention. Taylor even figured out a little trick to help with Flossie’s picky eating while away from home, and it worked perfectly! What stood out most was how attentive and caring she was. Flossie wasn’t treated like “just another dog” — she was cared for like family. Taylor was patient during the adjustment period, incredibly responsive, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving our sweet girl in her care. Her home was calm, clean, and welcoming, and I truly appreciated the individualized attention Flossie received with no other pets in the home during her stay. I would absolutely trust Taylor again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for compassionate, reliable, and genuinely loving pet care. Thank you again, Taylor, for taking such amazing care of our girl 🤍🐾

Scout has stayed with Natalie & Jeromy through a handful of random work trips that have popped up lately (and I have them booked for a few more throughout the summer!), and every single time I’ve felt so grateful to have found them. Leaving your dog is hard. But somehow they make the sting hurt less. The best feeling is seeing Scout absolutely light up and run straight into Natalie’s arms when she arrives. You can just tell how loved and safe she feels there! Natalie is also unbelievably communicative — thoughtful updates, photos, little check-ins — the kind of care that gives you total peace of mind while you’re away!! Cannot recommend them enough.

Experience can vary widely from sitter to sitter, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing sitters available in Rainier Beach.

Rover makes it easy to find Rainier Beach dog boarding sitters to provide loving care from their own home. The background-checked, 5-star sitters you can find on Rover will welcome your dog into their home when you’re away—whether it’s just for the weekend or longer. Dog boarding is great for:

  • Dogs of all ages and abilities, including puppies
  • Pet parents looking for a safe, loving alternative to a kennel
  • Dogs who’d love to socialize with their sitter’s pets

Yes! Sitters joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services.

What Is Seattle Dog Boarding Like On Rover?

Worried about your dog’s comfort while you’re away? Rover helps you choose from over 3,200 dog boarding environments hosted by vetted and reviewed Seattle sitters. Turn your dog’s stay into a canine vacation in popular Seattle dog-friendly neighborhoods like Queen Anne, Fremont, Capitol Hill, or West Seattle. Rover makes it easy to find affordable dog boarding in Seattle and surrounding areas like Bellevue, Redmond, Kent, Tacoma, or Bothell. The cost of dog boarding in Seattle, WA, ranges from $65 to $70 per night.

Convenience to SeaTac

Travelers flying through Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SeaTac) can choose from 160+ dog boarding locations within 15 miles. Some sitters may also meet you at the airport for an additional fee.

Tailored Dog Boarding Options in Seattle

  • Solo dog care: 1,682 sitters offer one-on-one attention for anxious pups
  • Fenced yards: 1,378 sitters have outdoor play areas for high-energy pups
  • Boarding + daycare: 1,937 sitters offer daycare for playful dogs
  • Grooming & bathing: 710 sitters provide light grooming for long-term stays
  • Multi-pet boarding: 1,536 sitters welcome multiple dogs or cats
Unlike traditional kennels that follow a strict group schedule, dog boarding through Rover is customizable to your dog’s emotional needs. For most sitters, services such as additional walks, playtime, and one-on-one attention are included in their daily rate.

A Day In the Life for a Rover Pup

Dog boarding with an active Star Sitter on Rover will follow the sitter’s schedule and set routine, which may look like:
  • Morning neighborhood walk, such as a stroll around Green Lake or Belltown waterfront
  • Mid-day supervised yard time and rest
  • Afternoon enrichment outing or indoor play
  • Potty walk and nighttime winddown
When booking, factor in your dog’s habits and needs to your sitter’s location. Does your dog need off-leash playtime? A sitter who lives in the U District may visit Magnuson Park Off-Leash Area. Well-socialized dogs may enjoy staying with sitters who live by dog-friendly outdoor patios, like Bark!Espresso, a dog-themed café with fun treats for pups, or The Barking Dog Alehouse in Ballard.
Need more routine stability? If your pup thrives on routine, Seattle house sitting services may be a better choice. For about $75 per night, a Seattle sitter will stay in your home and follows your care instructions.
