“Bobbi is the best sitter I have had! My dog fit in perfectly at her home and was comfortable to entire visit. Bobbi kept me updated and was very flexible with our situation. Will most definitely book with her anytime I need a sitter in the future!”

“Jennifer made my Karlie feel so welcomed in her home from the first meet and greet. I'm so glad I chose Jennifer to board and care for my Karlie and she just loved playing with her dogs so much. I love the way Jennifer went out of her way to send many special pictures of my Karlie's activities there and special tips from Jennifer. Once again thank you and hope to use your services again in the near future.”
“Great service all around. I will be recommending Ethan to friends and family. Next time we go out of town Ethan will be my first call when our little furry friend needs a second home.”
“This is our first time leaving our dog with a sitter. In the past we have always used family or friends of the family to watch our dog. It could not have gone better!! He was well taken care of and we even got pictures sent to us. I don’t think he wanted to leave when we came to pick him up. I would highly recommend Rebecca.”
“My dogs love spending time with Jeremy! He is such a great sitter, super nice, and always available to watch my two dogs. I can tell he treats them as if they were his own and I know they feel comfortable and safe in his care!”
“Melody did great job talking care Max . She sanded me pictures and write the notes about the Max and how he loves to cuddle with her and follow her around. Melody is very nice and she loves being taken care of Max . I’m really appreciate her.”
“We have two little dogs , one of which is handicapped hence we were very selective in the process of choosing someone to board them with; Kana and her husband were fantastic!! They send pictures to us and bathed them and even washed their bedding!! Can’t thank them enough for caring for our fur babies while we were on vacation. We are definitely booking with them again.”
“It was great to be able to leave Lily with Kaitlin when we were gone for 4 nights. We had only left Lily alone once before, but she had a lot of fun playing with Fletcher. We really appreciated Kaitlin's text updates and photos. When we picked her up she was tired from all the fun, but not overexcited, which told me she had really enjoyed spending time with Kaitlin and her sweet family. Thanks for taking care of our baby so well Kaitlin!”
“Dani’s care exceeded any expectations we had. From introductions, communication, follow ups, there were so many details she provided. We received updates and photos of our pup, a nice treat for us. We thought pup may not want to come back as she was living her best live ever. Definitely will recommend Dani, and she will be our first thought for future care.”
“Meredith was incredible! I will definitely be returning to her when we need care again. It was evident the genuine care for my pup, and the communication throughout the stay was top tier. I felt so comfortable knowing my dog was in good hands/ on his own little vacation while I was gone!”
“Took fantastic care of Mimi! Mimi can be an anxious dog but she warmed up to Kelly real quick🩷. The frequent updates kept us reassured during our trip that she is in great hands.”
“Darcia, Thank you for the great care of our family member, Boba! We’re glad Boba had a good time with your dog. Your calm and reassuring attitude really helped us know that Boba was in good hands. Thank you again! Andy”
“Duke and I are so glad we found Kayle! We have booked two stays with her, one being an 11 day stay (with a 3rd one coming up soon!) and she has been nothing short of amazing. She is very attentive to Duke and has treated him like her own since the first night. She is very flexible which is a bonus for me as I am active duty military (100% recommend). We have definitely found our Washington sitter in Kayle and will continue to book with her for as long as she will have us!! You can feel very comfortable and confident in Kayle’s ability to care for your pet. She keeps open communication through the entire stay and gives your fur baby lots of love while you’re away!! ❤️❤️ 🐶”
“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!”
“Taylor was absolutely fantastic! We boarded our German Shepherd with her for 16 days while we took an extended trip. She communicated with us frequently to let us know how he was doing and sent many pictures, which we greatly appreciated. We will absolutely book with her again.”
“First time using Rover. Molly, her pups and home environment were very welcoming. My old dog has an expensive dislike to the crowded and noisy concrete boarding facilities. She seemed to enjoy staying in a quiet home like setting with a great backyard and a calming human. I will definitely use Molly again. Convenient and quick drop off and pick up. Thank you!”
“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! :)”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Steilacoom is $55
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Steilacoom
Louann is the best! She had my older dog at her home for two weeks. He was showered with love, had happy, slow walks, and even got to sleep in her room! She asked all the right questions beforehand, texted me when another question came up, and sent sweet pup pictures to make me miss him even more. I would absolutely recommend her for a home stay, or just regular dog walks. She pays careful attention, makes them feel very cared for, and gave me peace of mind.
Jennifer was absolutely wonderful! She is incredibly knowledgeable about dogs, and I really appreciated that she required a meet-and-greet beforehand with her own dogs. It showed me that she genuinely cares about the well-being and safety of every dog in her care—not just filling bookings. She came up with a thoughtful plan to make sure my dog would be comfortable and safe with the other dogs, which gave me so much confidence leaving him with her. Throughout his stay, Jennifer was friendly, communicative, and sent lots of pictures and updates that really put my mind at ease. I could tell my dog was in great hands, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jennifer again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and trustworthy dog sitter!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Steilacoom
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Steilacoom on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,308 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Steilacoom. 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.
94% of Steilacoom 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 Steilacoom 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 Steilacoom 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 Steilacoom.
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 Steilacoom 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.
