“Mariana was a great sitter for our pups. She was very transparent in making sure it was OK if she had other dogs at the house. She was very thorough and made me feel like she really cared for the boys. She sent tons of pictures which were great! They came home happy and sleepy! :)”
“10/10 recommend Katrina and her family!! They showed my fur babies the best care and love :) I felt extremely at peace with them being there! Katrina also sent updates of them everyday making my experience even better than expected! We will definitely be using her again :)”
“Our dog has done daycare and boarding with Ethan and it’s been a wonderful experience. He is always well cared for and gets lots of interaction and activity. We enjoy receiving photos and videos of his fun. We highly recommend Ethan :)”
“Kate is AMAZING! First time we’ve needed to board out dogs and we were so nervous. Kate quickly made us feel comfortable and welcomed our 2 Chihuahuas like family. We got many photo and video updates throughout their stay. They were spoiled rotten and got lots of attention. Kate goes above and beyond to create a pet friendly atmosphere at her home. We highly recommend trusting your pets with Kate.”
“Bella usually has a hard time and is very anxious while I’m gone. Victoria took amazing care of her sent lots and lots of photos and Bella didn’t seem anxious at all. Will definitely be using Victoria again.”
“Kaitlin and family were sweet to our pups. Kaitlin also advised that we bring something they like to snuggle that smell like home. I think it made a great difference for the girls.”
“Jennifer is just the kindest sitter ever. She and her doggie Champ are wonderful and kind humans. My little guy got his paw injured before I left on my trip and she did his best to help coordinate his care. She regularly communicated how he was doing to me, and when he needed to go to urgent care she was wonderful about getting him to a trusted family member to continue his care elsewhere. We love Jennifer and Champ and hope to see them again when Cosmo is all healed up!”
“Thank you MIranda!! I was a very high maintenence customer and Miranda stood by me the whole time! She sent regular updates on potty walks and poops, nap times, and meal times. She was so gracious and flexible with my up and down schedule. She is an above and beyond sitter! Your fur baby is in good hands.”
“Kelly did an amazing job helping my quirky dog feel very happy and comfortable during the week she stayed with her! Kelly was communicative and sent great photos of Goldie every couple of days. She obviously has a lot of experience with rescues, and is very kind and patient. We will absolutely use her again when we travel!”
“Very please with using Dorian to watch our dog. I have zero complaints. We have a very active pit mix puppy. He had no problem calming him and making him feel at home. Took him for walks often and treated him kindly. Will definitely be the first person I ask next time I need someone.”
“Dennis and Lynn watched our 8-month old golden retriever for just over two weeks and absolutely loved every part of their accommodations!! They even sent us daily updates and videos, took her for daily walks, played in the yard with her, and were very accommodating to us first-time “parents”; much more personal than a typical boarding situation. We will definitely be reaching out to Dennis and Lynn again if we need an overnight sitter. Thanks again!”
“I was able to board my dog Tex at Leslie’s on short notice and it turned out to be a great fit. Her dog Bruce is very well trained and got along great with my dog, who’s more interested in human friends than other dogs. She was able to administer his medication with no issues and kept the pups happy and active. She’s reliable, communicative, and took great care of Tex. I will definitely board my dog with her again! :)”
“Marla watched our dog for 3 weeks, and he had a great time! She sent many picture updates and it’s clear that our doggo had as much of a vacation as we did. He even got a bath from her after romping around and getting dirty. Would definitely recommend and will book with her again the next time we go out of town!”
“Maria did an amazing job watching our little Luna. She was great with communication which was really important to us. She would sent us updates everyday on our week long trip. Luna really enjoyed staying with Maria and felt right at home with her.”
“Danielle and Alexander were great with Samson! He felt right at home and comfortable for his stay! They sent over multiple photos and updates which showed he was being taken care of so well! Grateful for their care of my fur baby and highly recommend them!!”
“Kirsten and Nathan went above and beyond to make sure our pup felt right at home while we were away. They kept us updated with great communication and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. So grateful to have found them! Highly recommend.”
About: I have always been in a home with pets. Currently have our dog (6yr) Cooper, 2 cats (Tobi and Lola), as well as a guinea pig. I work in office these days and only available evenings and weekends. During the summer my kiddos love to want money so have taken up some walking and daycare. My dog and I enjoy a good nature walk/hike during the day while the kids are at school and then sometimes a big adventure on the weekends. Our cats and guinea pig couldn't be more loved and cared for. They all thrive and enjoy each others company as well as my kiddos.
“Dee Anne is so great with my pup and he always has a great time! She’s communicative with me, so thoughtful and supportive of his needs and high energy, and Max gets so excited to spend time with her which is so sweet. It’s a lovely experience every time!”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Ruston is $60
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ruston
Mandy & Greg were awesome with our dog! They were quick and easy to schedule and communicate with which I appreciated. You can tell they really love dogs and do this with a lot of care! We also received many photos and updates which made me feel more at ease while away from our dog. Our dog is anxious and somewhat reactive and they were very attentive to that and handled him with care. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter!
Jennifer Took care of Ella my little Poodle. Two days before i was to leave for my Granddaughter's Wedding in Hawaii Ella had an Injury to her back. Jennifer who is very experienced with dogs said don't worry go to the wedding. Ella required much care two different medicines. Ella needed to stay quiet and as still as possible. Jennifer trained her to use stairs. Follow the instructions I gave her. Her whole family helped in taking care of Ella. Ella was feeling much better when i picked her up. What more could you ask for in a sitter. I recommend highly Jennifer and family for care of your special pet.
Miranda did a wonderful job watching my dog, Moose, for a 2 week long vacation. I trusted her to take good care of him and based on the photos she sent, it seems like he had an enjoyable time with her dog, Fynn. She was communicative the entire time and accommodating when I needed to extend my trip by 2 days. I would recommend her as a sitter!
We had been struggling to find the right boarder for our anxious dog, and we’re SO glad we found Tobi. We really appreciated that she checked in with updates as he settled in, and before long, he was clearly happy and relaxed! He usually takes a long time to warm up to strangers and isn’t a big snuggler, so it’s a testament to their skill with anxious dogs that I got multiple pics of him snuggling with different people on their big cozy couch. We loved the photo updates, and we had a relaxing trip knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely rebook!
Absolutely outstanding dog sitter! Reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. Communication was excellent, and our dog was happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned. I especially loved receiving the happy photos of Gunner while we were away. We felt completely at ease knowing everything was handled so well. Highly recommend on every level!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
