“Shannon and Bert are wonderful. Rat has stayed with them several times over the years, and she is always genuinely happy to see them. They take excellent care of her, communicate clearly, and have been incredibly accommodating when unexpected travel plans have come up. It gives me tremendous peace of mind knowing Rat is with people who are so kind, attentive, and trustworthy. We are very grateful for Shannon and Bert, and recommend them wholeheartedly.”
“Alison and her family are amazing! They take such great care of my dog...actually too good because she barely wants to come home when I pick her up! They are very flexible with scheduling and always line up such fun activities for my dog while I am away. I never worry when I drop my little Princess off with this wonderful family! I highly recommend them!”
“Kevin was awesome! He was wonderfully communicative, send tons of photos, took the dogs on lots of walks and was an all around great person to work with. I recommend him to those who want their fury friend to be well taken care of!”
“Peter was great 🤩 Birdy is an active dog who loves her walks in woodlands and the chance to play frisbee and ball. Peter made sure she was well looked after and had a wonderful time while we were away. We had to extend our trip and Peter was very accommodating in having Birdy for longer than expected.”
“Akiko was awesome! She was so responsive from start to finish— from my inquiries before booking thru pickup. She was so good at giving updates, answering questions and sending photo updates. Having her own dog in the house helped because my dog had a playmate and friend. Will definitely book Akiko again!”
“I’m very grateful to Lindsey and her family for taking amazing care of my highly playful, energetic pup. This was our first boarding experience. Lindsey immediately put my worries at ease with timely communication, updates and photos/videos. My dog returned to me in a state of pleasant exhaustion, after a weekend full of walks and playtime. Lindsey and her family are excellent, reliable hosts!”
“Truly amazing!!! He went above and beyond to help me out and I will be forever grateful! I had a dog I saved while in Mexico who was hit by a car and needed her sent up to the states when she was healthy. I sent him a message of my predicament as I could get her a flight into Seattle(I live in Southern Oregon) and he stepped up and helped me get her from the airport and kept her a couple days before I could make the long drive! I received lots of updates and pictures and knew I made the right choice! He treated her like his own, taking her for walks and spoiling her rotten! I wish I lived closer because I would use him repeatedly to watch my babies!!!”
“Joshua is always so attentive to our little guy! He gives regular updates, takes multiple walks, and even had a rain jacket for our guy that we didn't pack. He is prepared for things you may have missed. This is our third time booking with Joshua, and Geddy loves him! We are so fortunate to be able to have our guy spend time with a dog lover! Thanks again, Joshua!”
“Anhelina is the best cat sitter! She’s watched my cat, Simon, three times now, and every experience has been amazing. She sends me daily photo updates, is always quick to respond, and truly cares about Simon’s well-being. I always feel completely at ease knowing he’s in her care. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Marina & Richard were absolutely amazing with our dog!! We’ve never left her anywhere before, and they went above and beyond with her. We were always in the loop and they welcomed her into their family while we were on our trip. You can tell she misses them already! :-) We cannot recommend them enough. We will absolutely ask them to watch her again!!”
“Kenny is the BEST! Our dog can be very anxious, but Kenny made him so comfy and feel so loved. We got great updates and a nice sleepy pup at pick up. Will absolutely be using him again! Thank you!!”
“Fiona is simply amazing! I felt confident leaving my pup in her care for the long weekend. She is very communicative and asked questions that allowed her to best care for my pup. I 100% recommend booking Fiona, she is a pleasure to work with!”
“Macaley was very communicative and friendly to us. She was so sweet to our dog and attentive to his needs. She sent pictures every day. We will definitely bring Ziggy back.”
“Eric was fantastic! He was able to accommodate me last minute after our previous plans fell through, and then was able to keep my pup for a few extra days after our return flights were canceled multiple times. He provided daily updates and pictures and took great care of my pup. I will definitely be using him again in the future!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Elan was absolutely amazing with Yoda while we were out of town for 6 days. She provided regular picture updates, and you could genuinely tell he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. The last couple times we used traditional kennel boarding, Yoda came home very depressed and stressed. This experience was completely different. With Elan, it truly felt like he was staying with family. We came home to a happy dog, and that gave us so much peace of mind while traveling. We would absolutely trust her with Yoda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring and dependable.”
“This is the second time we have Tyler and Alexis take care of Lyra Bear. They did amazing! We got lots of photos and videos and she came back happy. Definitely would recommend them!”
“Richard took care of our dog for a week. He sent us pictures and videos of our dog everyday and she looked very comfortable and relaxed at his house. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying :)”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Tukwila is $60

Josh and Mario have been an absolute godsend for us. we have two large dogs. one is the typical lovable goofy sweet dog (Rosie). the other is more coyote than dog (Raiden). Any sitter can watch a happy fluffball but a rare sitter who understands fear aggression and recognizes dogs are not babies with fur is extremely appreciated. Raiden is very selective in who he trusts and usually takes weeks to earn that trust. Josh was in Raiden's family/friends plan within hours. that's a miracle. And lastly the dogs were very happy during their stay. The daily updates and pictures were much appreciated and gave us peace of mind. Do yourself and your dog a favor and choose Josh for your famiky member. big or small, sweet or ... not so sweet these two accommodate all. oh and someone was always there which is perfect for separation anxiety. Thank you Josh will absolutely use again.
Loved using Qilian! This was my first time using Rover and Qilian was so kind and took such good care of both my babies for over a week. I got regular updates and photos and was told day by day if anything happened or if they made new friends, it was wonderful. The most kind thing however was when I was flying home, my flight was delayed 4 times and Qilian was so accommodating and generous with me. She told me not to worry and that she would take care of my pups until I arrived. This put me at ease on a very stressful situation and I couldn’t me more grateful. Thank you Qilian! I will definitely be using her again!💜
Thank you Kendall so much for your love and care!! So special to find someone who will love Gabi girl the way I do! And a household that embraced her! Can not express how grateful I am with the communication and ease Kendall provided, I was very nervous for Gabi’s first slumber party! We will definitely be back, Gabi loved it! 🐾🐾💜💜
Daria was absolutely fantastic. Not only did she make me feel so secure by sending me pictures throughout the time I was gone, I could tell they were enjoying themselves and weren’t stressed. My dog Iggy doesn’t even like men that much and here I see Daria’s spouse giving him kisses and cuddles and Iggy was blissfully happy! You can tell how much they love pups. I am so glad I found Daria! Thank you!
We’ve boarded Noodle before, but wanted to see if our senior pup, Monty, would do well. We’re always nervous about him with new pups, as he can be a little grumpy, but he had such a great time this past week while we were on vacay. He had CCL surgery earlier this year, so we didn’t want to board him at Dogtopia like we usually do, as we know he doesn’t rest as much there. We felt so much better knowing he had his sissy with him, and that he would be spoiled silly especially during his bday week. Thank you again for taking such great care of our furbabies!!! ☺️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Tukwila on Rover is $49.44 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 5,991 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Tukwila. About 91% of Tukwila sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
