“Dawn took fantastic care of my baby! She came home beautifully tired out from playing with Dawn's own fur babies. Dawn provided informative daily updates that kept my mind completely at ease. I highly recommend her!”
“Lia and Jonathan came through like champs! I only gave them a 1 day notice and they were gracious enough to fit Rogue in for the weekend. The communication throughout the stay was once again fantastic, so many pictures and quick notes on how the days were going. Definitely our go to place for Rogue❤️”
“Katie was amazing! She made me feel so at ease and comfortable knowing my Fiona was in her care. Fiona was so happy to get to Katie’s house and looked so happy in her pictures! I can’t thank Katie enough for taking care of my girl!!!”
“Kayla took excellent care of Jamoon, making sure he was comfortable, well fed, and got plenty of attention. Jamoon enjoyed his stay at Kayla’s. We really appreciate the regular updates and photos which gave us peace of mind while we were away.We highly recommend.”
“Kadi was so sweet and attentive. You can tell there’s a lot of love in their home for their dogs and leaving Oliver felt easy. She kept me up to speed with how the stay was going. Easy to communicate with and was flexible. Oliver had so much fun and was exhausted after his stay.”
“Thank you Jungmin, my family had a truly comfortable trip with your support. You kept us updated with photos from time to time, so we were able to travel without any worries. And it seems like Seoul also enjoyed staying with your dog, Taco. Thank you again!”
“Whitley was absolutely phenomenal, and I truly cannot recommend her highly enough! She cared for our senior cat, Panda Bear, for almost a month while we were relocating, and knowing he was in her care gave us complete peace of mind. Panda Bear is an older cat, so leaving him for an extended period was incredibly difficult. From day one, Whitley treated him as if he were her own. She was patient, attentive, and genuinely caring, making sure he was comfortable, well-loved, and happy throughout his stay. One of the things we appreciated most was her communication. She sent us regular updates, photos, and messages about how Panda Bear was doing, which meant the world to us during such a stressful time. It was so reassuring to see him relaxed, receiving affection, and settling in so well with her. When we picked him up, he was healthy, content, and clearly had been very well cared for. It was obvious that he had received plenty of love and attention while we were away. If you're looking for someone who is trustworthy, compassionate, and goes above and beyond for your pet, Whitley is the person you want. We are beyond grateful for the exceptional care she gave Panda Bear, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Thank you, Whitley, for taking such amazing care of our sweet boy!”
“Deena took great care of our pup while we were on vacation and was flexible and accommodating when we had significant travel delays. It was such a relief to know that our pup was being loved and cared for while we were away. We received daily updates and pictures. We will definitely be using Deena’s services again.”
“We had a great experience with them and we will definitely be using them again! They offer a really welcoming space for your pets and you can tell that they care about every one that they take care of. My dogs stayed with them and I could tell by the pictures they had a great time. They weren't even excited to see us when we picked them up after being gone for a week! I was slightly offended but so happy they enjoyed their stay.”
“Cynthia was amazing with Ella! She usually has a tough time adjusting to new environments, but she felt right at home here, thanks to Cynthia’s care! She ate all her meals and medicine, spent time playing outdoors, and given loads of love. I never had to worry about Ella while I was away.”
“Best decision I ever made to book not only through Rover but with Mayrannie. She was absolutely wonderful sent me pictures and updates on how he was adjusting everyday. She was so so sweet to my boy!! I know he had a great time there because when I picked him up he was so happy and he was so exhausted from playing with her dogs. He's been passed out since we brought him home. We will definitely bring him there again. Thank you so much for everything we were able to enjoy our vacation with no worries knowing he was happy and being taken good care of.”
“She is really awesome! It is my first experience and my dog needed boarding immediately because of my business travel. but she responded very quickly even if I requested about 7am. It was very appreciated. She also has a dog and cat. They were very nice to him.( Thank you guys!) Her house condition was good enough for boarding dog. Clean and organized. I am so happy to find perfect place at once. I think I am lucky.”
“I cannot express in words how incredible of an experience we had with Brittany. Our original sitter fell through very last minute and Brittany was more than willing to accommodate a two week stay for our pup. Not only is her home environment perfect for a dog; lots of physical activity, snuggles, love, low stress, daily obedience training, etc., but it is also the expertise and confidence Brittany provides that makes for an ideal situation. She knows temperaments of breeds through her years of training and uses her knowledge to create a controlled, safe and fun experience. The daily pictures and updates gave us a worry-free vacation and we absolutely loved seeing the fun our guy was having. The pick up/drop off option is also a game-changing bonus! Seeing Brittany get a little teary-eyed saying goodbye to Clarence was complete confirmation of the genuine love she has for dogs. Clarence now has a beautiful second family for when we are gone, and we are forever grateful!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Washington
Hailey was just amazing. It was so obvious she loves dogs and knows how to approach them and make them comfortable. I was so nervous about leaving Gretel for a week as I've never had to and was worried about if she would eat and be okay. Hailey made me so sure that Gretel was in good hands with her updates and photos and the way she would ask questions about Gretel's little quirks. Every picture I got revealed a more comfortable and happy dog. Gretel went from sitting alone on the floor to snuggling in bed and giving many kisses and being her bossy self. Thank you, Hailey, for taking such wonderful care of my baby and treating her as if she were your own. I know who I can trust with pet sitting, and Gretel has a new safe place now.

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.
95% of sitters in Washington 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 Washington 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 Washington.
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 Washington. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Washington 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 MI 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.
