We could tell that our dogs had a great time as well! This was our first time using Rover and Lisa made everything so easy! We will book with her again!”
“I love the fact that Maria takes care of small dogs only. My little Layla loves coming to her house! In fact, after staying there just one time, she pulled her leash towards the house the moment she saw it again. Maria’s house is spotless and she takes wonderful care of her guests. I highly recommend her to anyone with a small dog.”

Lindsey and her family are excellent, reliable hosts!”
“This was first boarding experience at sitters home for my pet and Kenny took real good care and made sure to provide updates almost everyday and also provided good insight into my dogs behavior especially with another dog.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Renton
Everything about our booking was amazing. Communication was quick and constant, Quang allowed a meet and greet, and they even sent constant quick pictures throughout the 8 days our dogs stayed. I can't recommend them enough and would give 6 stars if I could because their dog was also a very sweet host when we met him.
Simba had a great time with Jiwon and her partner! They were super communicative and sent us lots of updates and photos of Simba every day. He looked so comfy and spoiled the whole time, and even made friends with one of their stuffed toys that they kindly let him play with. It was really nice knowing he was in such good hands, and we’d definitely book with Jiwon again!
We had such a wonderful experience! Audrey was incredibly caring, responsible, and easy to communicate with. She and her family treated our dogs like their own, taking them on lots of fun outings, brushing their fur, and even trimming their nails. Our dogs absolutely adored her whole family and seemed like they didn’t even want to come home! It was so heartwarming to see how happy and loved they were throughout their stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend!
Jermaine was great with Lulu! Communication was always incredibly quick since my initial message. He has a really good setup with multiple areas for the dogs to spend their time, as well as a backyard for them to run around and play. Lulu is a timid dog, but she felt very welcome at his place, and Jermaine made sure she was comfortable throughout her stay.
Iksy takes such wonderful, personal care of Chester! Chester is very sensitive to his surroundings, so seeing him come home happy and full of energy means a lot to me. I love the daily photo updates, and Iksy always follows my care instructions closely. From his safe, welcoming home to outings and picnics, Chester gets to have his own little vacation!
Our two beagles always have the best time with Quentin and his house full of pup friends! We have been booking stays with him for the past year. We appreciate his quick responses, daily video updates, and generous flexibility in making our schedules work. Looking forward to our boys’ next stay!
Jose did a great job boarding Kuma for 7 days! This was my dogs first time boarding and he made sure she was comfortable and familiar with the environment before boarding began which I really appreciate. She received so much love, care and attention. The daily updates and photos gave me peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely use Jose again!

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
92% of sitters in Renton 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 Renton 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 Renton.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Renton. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Renton 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
