“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.”
“We did boarding for our dog Marcel at Ana's home, and she and her family were fantastic caretakers. Ana was communicative, timely, and conscientious - from planning outings to make sure Marcel got the exercise and attention he needs, to sharing regular photo updates on how he was doing during his stay. Would highly recommend!”
“Maria is the best! This is second time she takes care of Miles and I trusted her blindly. She is a great communicator and hands on for all health/entra care needs.”
“I am so grateful to have found Ponyo to care for our dog, Tycho, and could not recommend her more. After our previous sitter had to cancel due to a family emergency, she graciously stepped in. We have a separation anxiety pup, and Ponyo did an amazing job helping him to feel comfortable, and also meeting him where he was at. She is was very attentive to him, keeping a close eye on his behavior and interactions with the other dogs, letting him be her carpool sidekick for after school activities, and providing ample walks throughout the day. She also gave us many updates each day about how he was doing. It gave us a lot of peace of mind while traveling. Again, so grateful, Ponyo was an amazing caretaker to our buddy boy!”
“I don’t think they left anything out! To sum it up: Great care Plenty of cuddles Lots of photo updates Good communication City adventures every day All with enthusiasm and love, so we returned to happy healthy pups.”
“Catherine was so wonderful with Pip! Sent lots of photos and updated us on all their activities. They did plenty of walking and playing! Catherine also knew the perfect times to take Pip outside to avoid crowds and other dogs. Highly recommend Catherine!”
“Devan was great! Checked in with us regularly to let us know how Blaze was doing and settling in. I could tell that Blaze was well cared for and had a great time with Devan and his partner! Will definitely use him again!”
“Jessica was an amazing dogsitter for our pup who stayed with her for a full week. Jessica communicated with us often while our dog was with her and cared for him as if he was her own dog. It's clear she has a love for dogs and a lot of experience caring for them. Jessica's care gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were on vacation. I would fully recommend Jessica without any reservations. ★★★★★”
“Brenda took wonderful care of our dog, Zelda, during our 4 day trip. Zelda can be a finicky eater and also chews up paper, so leaving her with a caring and attentive Rover really helps us be able to travel with ease. Zelda did great under Brenda's care, and came home happy and healthy. I definitely recommend booking with Brenda and will rebook in the future! Thank you so much!”
“Dominique and her son were the best weekend companions for my little corgi! It looked like they genuinely had a lot of fun, I got all the updates, and communication was great when I had to have someone else pick up the dog. Would definitely contact again.”
“Leslie was great taking care of our 5-month-old puppy Piper for a three-day weekend! Leslie was totally unfazed by our puppy's big energy, and gave her lots of attention. We also appreciated she was flexible about drop-off/pick-up time. Piper came back to us happy and tired from all the fun she had. We'd definitely book with Leslie again in the future!”
“We had such a great experience with Mrs.Hong. She sent daily photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the very beginning that she truly cared about my dog and treated him like family, not just a booking. Jax came home happy and clearly well-loved. Communication was excellent, and we always felt confident that he was in great hands. I will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter who genuinely loves dogs.”
“Randsell watched Milo while we were on a 7 day cruise. She sent lots of photos and videos, and took him on lots of walks and gave him a lot of attention. We would definitely rebook her when we're in the area again!”
“My pup, George, had a great time with Joseph when I was out of town for two weeks. I was traveling in remote areas of Alaska where I didn't always have service, but Joseph asked great questions before I left and I felt very comfortable that George would be well taken care of. I received lots of photos and updates, and George was a happy camper when I returned! My pup can be a little clingy, but he took to Joseph right away at our meet and greet, and had no problems when I left for real on the trip. I'd definitely have Joseph watch my pup again!”
“It was my first time using Rover, so I was a bit nervous, but Yusleni immediately put me at ease. She kept me updated throughout the stay and was great with communication. Most importantly, my dog absolutely loved her! I’d definitely book with her again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Seattle
Thư cared for our 9 week old puppy like her own. We were nervous to find a sitter so soon after adopting such a small puppy but she was so well taken care of. When I dropped her off she was nervous about going outside and on walks. After spending 4 days with Thư our puppy was so much more confident going for walks in her sling. It was truly incredible to see how much she was to grow in the couple days with her. I would 100% rebook!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Seattle on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,910 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Seattle. 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 Seattle 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 Seattle 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 Seattle 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 Seattle.
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 Seattle 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.
