“Sheila was very accommodating! I had a short-notice request and she was flexible with her schedule allowing us to enjoy our time away. She sent us updates of our fur baby enjoying himself. Thank you so much!”
“Cameron took excellent care of my pup while I was away! He is a great caregiver and I’d definitely allow my dog to stay with him again! He also took amazing photos of my dog which was a plus!”
“My first time using Rover and very pleased! Jessica was very attentive to our dog and from the pictures she sent, he seemed to settle in nicely at her house and with her dog. I would recommend her in a heart beat and plan to use her again in the future. Thank you for taking care of our fur baby.”
“Our Mickey went on vacation while we went on an Alaskan cruise. He has stayed with Melanie previously and we are always at ease knowing that he is comfortable and very well cared for. Thank you for being such an animal lover and sharing that love with our lil guy, too!”
“I had a great experience with Saranya. They were communicative, reliable, and clearly cared about my pet’s well-being. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My pet came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to others!”
“Tara took great care of our precious dog. We could not of asked for better care. We highly recommend that her services be used if you want your beloved dog to be well taken care of”
“Loki (European Doberman) spend the day and night with Kelly. She was very good with communicating how he was doing throughout the day. I would recommend her for your pet sitting needs”
“Jill was communicative and shared pictures daily. She was patient with my dog who had a little separation sadness initially. It was apparent that she cared for Coco the same way we would at home. We returned to very happy dog. We will definitely use Jill in the future.”
“Taylor & Sam were amazing! Communicative, treated the dogs so well. Daily updates & lots of exercise. Also flexible because of my hectic schedule. I haven’t felt this comfortable with someone watching my dogs for awhile. Great job!”
“Repeat customer here! My baby and I absolutely LOVE Emily and her babies so much. Emily is truly in a league of her own. Her love for dogs is unmistakable. You can tell she isn’t doing this just for the money. She genuinely enjoys caring for them, making them feel at home, and giving them the attention, affection, and fun they deserve. Emily gives me complete peace of mind. She treats Soup like one of her own, keeps me consistently updated, and goes above and beyond to make his stay special with fun experiences and little adventures. She was also incredibly flexible and did her best to accommodate my short-notice request, which I truly appreciated. Every update shows him happy, relaxed, and clearly living his best life. At this point, I honestly feel like he has found his second home. And please don’t let Emily’s big babies intimidate you! They are incredibly sweet, gentle, friendly, and well trained. It’s obvious how much love, time, and care Emily pours into her own dogs, and she extends that same warmth and attention to every dog in her care. I truly couldn’t recommend Emily more highly. Knowing Soup is with her means I can relax and enjoy my time away without worrying, because I know he is safe, loved, and having an amazing time. The only con? Your baby might not want to come home. 😂 Soup certainly doesn’t seem to!”
“Rachel and her family are amazing! So warm and friendly that I instantly connected with them and so did my male Maltese Mickey! Mickey is treated as a member of our family so when I look for a dog sitter, I want it to be a ‘ home away from home’ experience. I am so grateful to have found this with Rachel. Mickey has stayed with them twice already and we are sure to book again in the near future. I trust that Mickey is well taken care of and appreciate the picture updates I receive. Thanks So Much, Rachel!”
“Melissa and family kept us constantly updated with our pup during her stay and were incredibly understanding when our flight was delayed and pivoted to doing a drop off. We cannot thank them enough for their care of her.”
“I don’t know where to begin because Wendy is so awesome! She welcomed my request for a meet and greet, worked with my late night pick up, and sent super sweet photos of my fur baby daily. She was so attentive to his needs and mannerisms. This was the first time I could relax and not worry about my little ones well being while I was away. Wendy is a blessing and my number #1 choice for a sitter going forward.”
“Alicia was an amazing sitter. She sent a ton of updates and pictures/videos while caring for my pup. She took him on several walks, which I'm sure he was very happy about!!”
“We picked up a very happy girl. Finda obviously enjoyed the stay and was spoiled as we could see on the pics and videos shared with us. Thank you for taking care in such a good way!!!”
“Our dog spent 10 days with Sara and her family and when we picked him up he was his same happy self. Sara sent a daily picture that helped us to know he was in good hands. She even took him for a car ride :) Would definitely recommend! Thanks for taking good care of our Loki!!”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Washington is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $47 per night. 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.

As of November 2026, there are 616 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Washington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
93% 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:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 MO 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.
