Maria is amazing! She took care of my pup for 8 nights while I was on a business trip, and I couldn’t be happier. She made sure my energetic 11-month-old puppy felt welcome and comfortable, and she was a fantastic communicator. Maria is now my go-to person, not to mention she’s a true dog lover!

Ponyo took such good care of our senior dog while we were home for the holidays. We had flight delays and she was so flexible and communicative and went above and beyond to make sure our pup was cared for. He got so much love and attention while we were gone; would highly recommend her dog sitting services!

Jerica is great! We found her on Rover 3 weeks before our 8-day trip when our regular dog sitter would not be available. I was nervous leaving Archie with a new sitter at first, but she took great care of Archie. Jerica works from home. She has a yard and an adorable corgi so our beagle had someone to play with. Jerica took Archie on walks with her corgi and let Archie snuggle with her at night. It worked out great. She kept us updated every day and sent us lots of photos. We would definitely book with her again in the future.

I would highly recommend Sharon and Akira, especially if you have senior dog needs. When my 15yo dog had a difficult night, they were very accommodating to learn more how they can help him settle in better. They were very thoughtful in their questions and because of their patience and focus on care, our pup had a great stay. Thanks again!

Sebastian is great with my dog! She can be nervous around new people, but she warmed to him quickly and now gets excited when she goes to stay with him. He has been her regular Rover for several months now from a walk in the day to a week+ stay, and I feel safe leaving my pup in his care.

They were amazing in every way! Very communicative, easy pick up/drop off, and active as can be. Pups got plenty of exercise and lots of care. One of my pup’s had her paw pads get a little roughed up on the gravel after swimming in the lake, and they took extra care to make sure she wasn’t licking too much and put ointment on her wounds. Above and beyond what others might do. Can’t recommend enough!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My dog Ollie had a great week-long stay with Zach. He did an excellent job of making sure Ollie was comfortable while getting acquainted and becoming buddies with his dog at the beginning of the stay, and he sent lots of photos and updates throughout the week of the fun adventures he took them on. Communication with Zach was easy, and he was very accommodating with drop offs. Overall great sitter!

I was in a total pinch and needed last-minute care for my pup, and I am so incredibly lucky I found A.J.! She stepped in and made the whole process stress-free. What I loved most were the daily updates and photos. It was the absolute highlight of my day getting those little glimpses into my dog’s vacation. Honestly, he had such a blast that when I went to pick him up, he almost looked disappointed to be heading home! It is such a relief knowing your pet is not just being "watched," but is genuinely having the time of their life. If you are looking for someone who is professional, reliable, and treats your dog like their own, book A.J.! Just be prepared for your dog to come back with a new best friend.

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.
