“I can’t even believe how lucky we got in finding Maria. We have two small, nervous, not terribly well socialized dogs, and I can genuinely say that she cared for them as if they were her own. She send the sweetest videos and pictures and kept me up to date on whether they were eating or playing or cuddling, with the kind of genuine warmth and kindness that you don’t see a lot of in today’s world. She’s a wonderful, thoughtful human who truly cares about the animals in her care. Anyone would be lucky to have her take care of their babies. I felt such a sense of comfort knowing they were with her. I can’t rave about her enough. Thank you so much, Maria. Sending love to little Olive.”
“Mia had such a good time staying with Kirsten. She made so many new friends. The communication with Kirsten was great. Lived the photos and videos. We’ll definitely book with Kirsten again.”
“Really appreciate how attentive and caring Miranda was after our dog had a medical emergency. She communicated with us often and provided lots of photos and videos! It put our minds at ease knowing he was being so well taken care of.”
“Kayla and Jacob took amazing care of our energetic lab. The property was great for our dog to play and explore. Their family treated our dog as one of their own, making us feel at ease while we were away for an extended time. Would definitely use again!”
“Kizzie provided top notch, specialized care for my cats! I have two Persians, so I was looking on Rover for someone who specialized in caring for cats, and was familiar with the needs of different breeds. It was also my first time leaving my cats with a sitter, so I was extremely anxious to leave them. But Kizzie allowed me and my cats to come over for a meet and greet prior to their stay to familiarize them with their surrounds, and put my mind at ease. It was at that time when we were able to go over their routine, needs, and personalities. When the day came for me to leave them, Kizzie didn’t skip a beat. She had everything prepared and ready to go. The space that she has for the cats she cares for is like a little cat Oasis. It is clean, secure, there are cat trees, toys and places for them to relax for a cat nap. During my trip she sent daily updates and pictures of my cats. These updates gave me peace of mind, so I was able to relax and enjoy my time away. Kizzie’s service is 10/10! I will be using her again for my trips in the future!”
“Ashley was absolutely incredible with our energetic puppy! She spoiled him with attention and play throughout the whole stay. The daily updates and photos were wonderful and she was extra flexible when our flight home was delayed. Will absolutely book her again!”
“Kristin was great to work with and she was very reliable and happy to have our dog in her home. She was very responsive and worked with us on any special needs for our dog. Kristin sent us pictures during the visit and kept us updated and was great about flexible drop off and pick up. We will definitely be using her again soon!”
“Leslie was truly amazing! Her communication was thorough before the weekend, and kept us updated through the weekend with videos and photos. She will be our first connection the next time we need a sitter. Thank you for your kindness and taking care of our Ellie, Leslie. You are wonderful!”
“My dogs had a wonderful time at McKenna's house! They got along great with Jaxx, and I could tell how happy they were from McKenna’s daily updates. Both of my dogs are seniors who need extra care and medication, and McKenna took good care of them. She was easy to communicate with and always attentive to their needs. Highly recommend!”
“So, this was our first time leaving our puppy with someone and I was pretty nervous about it. But let me tell you, our puppy absolutely LOVED staying with David and Betty! We were away for 6 days, and even though I was worried, they took such good care of our pup. They were super attentive and loving, and we could tell that they treated our furry friend like their own. They were also really punctual, flexible, and friendly, and their communication was top-notch. Honestly, I can't recommend them enough to anyone in the area who needs reliable and trustworthy people to look after their fur babies. Thanks a million, Betty and David, for giving us such peace of mind while we were away!”
“Kevin and his partner took great care of our dog, Ozzy. We got nice pics everyday, so we could see how he was doing. They took Ozzy on walks, and the communication was excellent. The whole process was smooth and easy. I highly recommend Kevin.”
“Kristina took wonderful care of our dog while we were away! Her communication is top notch and she was so accommodating and professional. Our pup returned happy, relaxed, exercised, and even smelling good 😊 We will definitely book with Kristina again!”
“Joshua was the perfect sitter for our shiba Cudi! Cudi is selective with dogs and people, but instantly fell in love with Joshua at our meet-and-greet. Cudi quickly made himself at home and loved roaming the enclosed yard. We enjoyed receiving daily photo updates during his boarding, and Cudi was clearly so happy. Also, Joshua’s close proximity to SeaTac made it super convenient for us to drop Cudi off and head straight to the airport for our trip. Would definitely book again!”
“Meagan was awesome! Peanut could not have been in better hands! Meagan was very communicative and sent a lot of great photos. Both the quality and quantity of pictures were 5 stars. I will definitely book her for Peanut in the future.”
“We left our 2 yr old lab puppy - Butter with Alexa. Alexa was considerate about needs of Butter as a young and energetic puppy and she made sure her house was safe for Butter. While staying with Alexa, Butter went on new adventures, made new dog and cat friends and a wonderful time staying home and playing with her daughter. Thanks Alexa for taking good care of Butter.”
“David did a fantastic job with my pup! He was very professional and communicative from start to finish and went above and beyond to make my dog feel comfortable.”
“Piotr had a great time staying with Liz! She is very detail oriented when asking questions about our furbaby. Anything that could help her get to know him and aide her in giving him the best care tailored to him. She even sent us pictures and updates on what they were up to, which I genuinely appreciated. She also has a plethora of different toys and stimuli to challenge him mentally as well. He came home with two new tricks, shake/high five AND hide and seek with a stuffed ball! I can't wait to keep working with the foundation she was able to lay with him. Thank you for treating our little boi so well, I look forward to having you watch either or both our pups in the future.”
“Our dog Bourbon stayed with Julie for 3 weeks while we were on vacation. Julie has been so great with Bourbon during his whole stay and we were able to enjoy our vacation without having to worry about him. We got constant update from Julie about Bourbon and we knew that Bourbon was in good hand. There was no other dog during that time at her place so we knew that Bourbon was getting full attention from Julie all the time. We are very satisfied with her care and would recommend her for anyone who needs someone to take care of their dog.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Vashon on Rover is $45.27 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 5,690 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Vashon. 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.
91% of Vashon 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 Vashon 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 Vashon 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 Vashon.
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 Vashon 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.
