“Great communication, Lots of pics and videos, and Ozzy was SUPER happy when we picked him up. There were a couple of other dogs there for him to play with as well. Overall it was a great experience and we will be using Desiree again.”
“Jerrie is an amazing dog sitter. She is so loving to the pups and sends pics every day. She is very responsive and the pups have an big, beautiful area to play and run. Jerrie is the best sitter I have ever had and I would highly recommend her to everyone!! Our dogs LOVED her!!”
“Faye recently took care of our Daisy Dog. for 10 days. She was fabulous. She was very flexible with booking and made it easy for us. Daisy was very well cared for during her stay. Faye was very accommodating to Daisy's special needs and made sure Daisy was comfortable. Daisy was lucky enough to get to go for a couple walks and was even brushed a few times. Faye was great about sending texts and pictures to let us know Daisy was doing good. We are so happy we have found a great place for Daisy to stay while we are away. Many thanks to Faye & Sheryl. Daisy will definitely be visiting again in the future.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Roxana & Nathan and will absolutely book with them again! They took great care of our dog and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent, and they treated our dog like one of their own. We are so grateful to have found them and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets!”
“Kaylee and her family were phenomenal with our dog Harmony. We've always put our dog in a kennel when we're out of the area but have never had her stay at someone's house, so I was a little nervous. Kaylee quickly addressed any concerns I had prior to Harmony's stay. During her stay, Harmony received nothing but love and attention! Pictures, videos, and messages were sent throughout her stay and I was at ease knowing how well she was being cared for. I will most definitely use Kaylee for future bookings and highly recommend her for anyone else looking for their pet to be well loved!”
“One of our pups had a rough first impression at drop off but Cale was patient and willing to work with him. We received updates and great communication. Dogs were well cared for and happy when they came home!”
“Annmarie took wonderful care of our dog. We received several photos, videos, and other updates during our dog's stay. I also appreciated that she took the time to meet our dog before our trip”
“My dogs had a blast with James. He communicated well with us and double checked just to make sure that he was feeding them on the right schedule. Big back yard and when I picked up my dogs they were exhausted from all the playing outside. Thanks again and hope to board with you again in the future!”
“Jennifer is an amazing person who is understanding and communication is very good. She is always keeping me updated about my dog. She shows how passionate she is on what she does and I know for sure my dog is happy when she is in her home. I totally will continue to take my furry best friend to her as long as she allows it when out of town :)”
“Daisy was well taken care of, had lots of play time, and adventures! Marianne was a fantastic communicator - we appreciated all the pictures and videos of Daisy during her extended stay. She had a little ear infection and they administered all her medications. We would definitely rebook!”
“Our pup had a fantastic time with Christianna! She took wonderful care of our dog. A trip to the lake with her family, walks and lots of play time with her two dogs - even allowed on the furniture 😊. I really appreciated the pics and texts reassuring me. I absolutely would use and recommend Christianna to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Kristin is amazing! Left our 2 Frenchies with her for 5 days and they had a great time. Kristin was very flexible with our drop off and pick up times, great communicator, and sent us daily photos and updates. I’m so happy we found someone in completely comfortable to leave our babies with. 🥰”
“Jill is fantastic! If I could give more than 5 stars, I definitely would. She's so kind, caring, and communicative. She and Josie took such good care of our little pup, and treated her (and us!) like family. She sent us pupdates, photos, and video of our little dog having the time of her life. We felt so at ease and knew our baby was being adored and cared for. We all had a great experience and we couldn't be thankful enough to Jill for treating our girl like a little princess.”
“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!”
“Bailey and Kyle were a great find! I really wanted to find a home away from home for our dog child and we found it here! Stella seemed like she had a great time! Excited for future visits.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Shelton
Maria is wonderful with dogs. My three year old spoiled rotten ADHD golden retriever had never had a sleepover before (one of us appears to have attachment issues😃). I left her for 5 nights. Maria did such a great job, I booked her again for two nights. My Goldie was so glad to be back at Maria’s, she dragged me to her door on arrival. Pictures were great from Maria! She was very organized both times. My baby looked better when I picked her up than when I left her. Brushed and smelled good too. Maria is a gem. You won’t be sorry if you book her!! Just leave time for me!
Cambria has been taking care of our big pup for years now. He loves staying with her and her family. He always has a great time and gets plenty of attention! Cambria regularly sends pics of their many adventures and all the friends he’s made. She is also great about scheduling pickup and drop off. It really has been a huge blessing to have Cambria as a second home for our pup.

FAQs for Boarding - Shelton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Shelton on Rover is $43 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 927 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Shelton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
97% of Shelton 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 Shelton 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 Shelton 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 Shelton.
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 Shelton 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.
