“Sherman was very happy and well taken care of while staying with Marla and BooBoo! He has medicines that he has to take and she gave them to him every morning. When is his medicines can be increased as needed for arthritis and she was able to see when Sherman was hurting and needed an increase in his medicine or a lower activity level… he’s an old boy ❤️. BooBoo was a great friend for Sherman to have an around during my extended vacation. Marlee kept me updated and sent pictures and Sherman just looked happy in all of them! She even gave him a bath before I picked him up!! And I broke my wrist while on vacation and she was more than willing to extend the stay by the extra day that I needed. I really appreciate Marla taking care of Sherman and I will definitely use her services again!!”

About: I’m a Samoyed owner with hands-on experience caring for large, energetic dogs. I’m comfortable with strong pullers, long walks, high-energy play, feeding, basic routines, and keeping dogs safely supervised. I understand that every dog has their own personality and boundaries, so I always follow the owner’s instructions and take time to learn each dog’s routine and preferences. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to provide plenty of exercise for dogs who need it! I’m usually available 7 days a week. Same-day bookings are welcome! Please send your request at least 6 hours before your preferred start time. My schedule is flexible, so feel free to reach out if you have any special timing needs. Your dog’s safety is always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including preferred walking routes, leash and harness routines, interactions with other dogs, and any behaviors or triggers I should watch for. I keep dogs leashed throughout walks unless specifically instructed otherwise in a safe and appropriate area. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos during or after each walk.
“Lani and her family are so very kind and accommodating. We are so pleased to have them as our dogs sitters. We never have to worry about our fur babies when she is caring for them. She gives them so much attention and affection. Our dogs are happy to stay with her and not stressed at all when we pick them up. We are so lucky to have found Lani.”
“Cookie has stayed with Sally & her family three time now, he enjoyed the stay and looks happy when I pick him up. Sally did good job taking care of Cookie and updated me with Cookie's photos every day. I'll use Sally again for sure. Thanks,”
“Carmen went above and beyond while watching our dog, Honey! From regular updates to genuinely thoughtful care, we felt completely at ease the entire time. I was very appreciative of all the photos and videos she sent! Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again! :)”
About: Hi! 🐾 myself and my husband have loved animals for as long as we can remember and have cared for dogs and cats since we were little. We are proud dog parents of three pups , and they truly are family! I work from home, so I’m home 24/7 and able to give your fur baby plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and LOTS of cuddles. ❤️ We potty trained all three of our dogs and have experience caring for pets with special needs, including administering insulin to our diabetic pup and keeping a consistent feeding and medication schedule. When your pet is with us, they’ll be treated just like one of our own with lots of love, patience, attention, and of course, plenty of cuddles! 🐶💕 I work full-time Monday through Friday from home and take my breaks and lunches as an opportunity to get outside in the yard with the dogs. We also love taking our pups on a long walk in the afternoon. We have a fully fenced in yard as well as two Shih Tzu‘s and a Staffordshire terrier that are extremely friendly and have never ever shown signs of aggression in the 9 to 4 years we have had them. Our home also has a number of gates to separate pups if needed. We also have a backyard camera as well as a front door camera. If your pups are outside they will always be supervised. We do allow our animals on the couch as well as our bed as we do have clingy babies who love to cuddle so we are more than happy to cuddle your baby if needed. We also have a six month old at home but we are already used to keeping her at a safe distance from any animals in the home.
“Audra hosted our 2 pugs for 3 nights while we were out of town camping. I felt at ease being able to drop them off and see the inside before we left. She sent a few pictures during the stay and we felt very comfortable having our girls stay there. The dogs seemed very happy when we picked them up so I know they had a good stay. Would absolutely book again!”
“Tony provided great care for my dog. He lives in a very nice area with a lot yard space. My dog isnt very social with other dogs and Tony understood. He sent pictures of my dog while I was away and Tony was very responsive.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Sumner is $60
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sumner
Odalys was fantastic with our dog, Kona. It was our first time using Rover and leaving him with someone outside our family, so we were a bit apprehensive. However, we received photos of him, and it seemed like he was having a great time. We’re definitely going to use Odalys again.
A family emergency had us traveling unexpectedly, Erika took in our little dog at the last minute. We got updates & lots of pictures. We knew our pup was in a safe, loving environment which made our situation a lot easier to deal with. We feel so lucky to have found Erika, she is truly wonderful.
We've used Gretchen several times now, and she has been wonderful every single time. She takes such great care of our pup, and it's obvious she truly loves animals. Our dog is always happy and well cared for, which gives us so much peace of mind when we're away. Gretchen is reliable and communicates well. We never have to worry because we know our pup is in great hands. It's hard to find someone you trust with your pet, and we're so grateful we found her. We highly recommend Gretchen and will absolutely continue booking with her in the future!
Jazzee is a wonderful dog sitter and a very friendly person. Great communications throughout our dogs stay. Extremely happy dog on pickup. I know he enjoyed his stay. If you need a reliable, professional dog sitter, Jazzee fits this need. You can trust her with your pets and her professionalism in caring for your animals. We will definitely be using her again.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Sumner 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 Sumner 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 Sumner.
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 Sumner. 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 Sumner 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.
