“First time leaving our fur baby and he had a great time. I was really nervous as our sr dog is on seizure meds 2x a day and raw food that has to be weighed out. But everything went great and Rukus meet some new friends ☺️”
“Our pups were very well taken care of while we were away at Christmas time! Our older, medium-sized dog loved lounging with Luna’s Great Dane, and our Malinois/Shepherd mix couldn’t get enough of playing outside in her big fenced yard. We had a bad experience with a previous sitter, but Luna gave fantastic care (including giving meds) to our guys and put as at perfect ease. They came home and slept more than I’ve ever seen them sleep before!”
“This is our first experience having Lucy boarded with Chonda and her husband Chad. Turn out to be a very positive experience!! Beside regular feedings, they also helped with giving her medication for her joint. We were also given photos updates daily. Lucy came home clean and happy. Thanks for doing a great job!!”
“Krishna was available last minute for us and was able to take in my two beagles for two nights. She kept me updated throughout and sent photos as well! Would highly recommend and book again if needed in this area again in the future :)”
“Stacy was very friendly and wanted to make sure our pup was comfortable before we left him for the weekend. We got lots of photos and our pup got lots of love and attention from Stacy. He even went on a special outing/walk. I would for sure book again with Stacy again.”
“Thank you Tamee for taking such good care of Chase. I’m sure he had the best time. It’s nice to know he has a home away from home with all those extra snuggles . I highly recommend Tamee and her family. Thank you”
“Very pleasant experience, great communication during our dogs’ stay and our dogs were happy and received a lot of attention from the family throughout their stay. Will definitely book again on our next trip”
“Jay and his family were great. They took our dog in during the Thanksgiving holiday. He is often shy but that was not the case with Jay. We were provided daily updates regarding Charlie’s well being. He was very much pampered. It seems Charlie has found his vacation home when we are in the area again.”
“Scot was fantastic! He showed such genuine care and affection for our dog, making us feel completely at ease while we were away. His kindness and flexibility with our schedule were much appreciated, and it's clear they truly love what they do!”
“Our Johanna was so well cared for at Kelly’s house. We received regular updates and she had great communication with us. Johanna loved her time there and played so well with Shelby.”
“Aubree was the best! She took in our puppy and cared for her and played with her with such love and kindness. We were in a last minute bind when we had to turn to Rover, but we lucked out with the perfect sitter and we were able to leave our puppy with peace of mind and happy updates :)”
“Our first time using this service to board our pup and it was AH-MAZING!! Chanelle and her family exceeded our expectations. They made our Coal feel right at home and he made a new best friend named Bear❤️. Daily updates and pictures helped to calm my anxiety. Super appreciative! I would 100% recommend allowing Chanelle care for your fur babies!”
About: I’ve been a caregiver, of pets and elderly on and off for 20+ years. My home is set up for dogs, with a fully fenced yard, dog door, and chill dog friendly home. We have two dogs of our own who are great with other dogs and are vaccinated. I’m a full time online student and mom, so I am home most of the time. We are all about dog play time and couch cuddles in our home. I have a fully fenced yard. We have two well behaved dogs that are good with other dogs. We try not to overlap dog families. Sometimes we will overlap for a couple days, if we feel we can make it work for us and all the dogs are comfortable.
About: As a dog mama myself, I understand what it means to leave your pup in someone else's hands. I treat every dog like family — with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. We go on lots of walks (there's a trail right next to my house) and have tons of play time and cuddle time. I work from home, so am able to give your pup the attention s/he needs and deserves. I go on frequent walks with my own pup and have a dog door so the pups can go in and out as they need. There is a trail right beside out house and we go on lots of walks throughout the day. They will get lots of love, snuggles, and exercise!
“It was my first time leaving my pup with someone over night. I was very nervous but I honestly could not have picked a better sitter. Mishell was incredible and sent me photos and updates every day. I 100% plan on booking with her in the future.”
About: Hi there! For years I’ve cared for dogs and cats for friends and family while they’re away, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in a calm environment. I have plenty of hands-on experience and truly enjoy giving pets attention, care, and consistency while their owners are gone! I do have 3 outdoor cats, but they are separate and will not interfere with your pet’s space, comfort, or routine. When I’m not caring for animals, you can find me at church, playing pickleball, reading my Bible, going to the gym, or grabbing an acai bowl! :) I play professional pickleball, so my day is structured around training in short blocks. I train in the morning and again in the afternoon, but I’m home throughout the day to care for pets and provide walks, attention, and consistency. I’m never gone for more than 2–3 hours at a time, so your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I’m available most weekdays and weekends when I’m not traveling for tournaments. I will only accept bookings when I’m fully available to provide proper care and attention! I have a spacious one story home and a backyard where pets can safely spend time outside. One side of the yard is not fully fenced, so I always supervise outdoor time or keep them on their leash. Pets will also get regular walks around my safe, quiet neighborhood for exercise. My home is clean, calm, and set up to make pets feel comfortable and secure!
“Bri was very communicative and so knowledgeable about dogs. Our pup warmed up to her quickly and was in great hands for three days. We got pictures and updates regularly and we’d love to have Bri pet sit for us again. She is phenomenal.”
“Joan and Gregory loved on my dog all five days she was there. They took her to the park and played with her and she came home happy and exhausted. They provided me with pictures throughout her stay so I could see how much fun she was having. I am so happy to have found my dog’s home away from home.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Washington is $45

Shawna and Chad are hands down the best sitter that we have found for our big boy Buddy. They keep in contact with photo updates and also worked with our schedule and was able to keep him one extra day with short notice. They are amazing and I know our boy loves hanging out with them! Definitely will be rebooking in the future!!
They were awesome! Super communicative and friendly. Our dog can sometimes take a while to warm up to people, but he did great with them! The vet school training was an added comfort as well because I know that means they really care about animals. I definitely recommend using them for your future pup needs.
Rebecca is a fantastic dog sitter. We are traveling and our dog is a little unpredictable. She is also old and doesn’t like to have a lot of changes in her routine. Rebecca was very welcoming and our dog settled right in. Rebecca was very flexible with our schedule and did a great job communicating. We hope to use Rebecca for future needs.
I was a little worried about leaving our 4 month old puppy with someone I hadn’t met, but Stacey had great reviews and she lived up to all of them. Her family was wonderful! Our goldendoodle pup had so much fun playing with Stacey and her kids. We got daily updates and photos showing how much he was being loved. I would definitely choose Stacey again!
This was my first time using a pet sitting service. I was nervous about leaving my dog with a stranger but I was quickly at ease with Lindsay. She sent daily updates and took my dog on morning hikes. My dog also seemed very entertained with her family and own dogs as company. What a great find. I will be using Lindsay again on future trips. Thank you!
Connor and Julia did an amazing job taking care of my little one! They were incredibly attentive to all of her special needs and made sure she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. They provided frequent updates with lots of adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she was in loving hands, and she came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I couldn’t have asked for better caregivers and would absolutely trust them with her again. Highly recommend!
We had such a great experience with Tiffany! She took amazing care of our dog and kept us updated, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable with her. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Washington is $47 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $65 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 112 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Washington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% 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, 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.
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 , 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 .
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 UT 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.
