“1000% recommend Shaun.... have used him a few times now and Maisel absolutely loves him. Great communication, very accommodating and an obvious genuine caring for the pets in his charge.”
“Holly and her family took great care of my nervous mini labradoodle. She sent updates and pictures of my pup each day. I could tell she was well loved. I am so glad I found Holly and will definitely use her again!”
“Cindy took such good care of Wally. This was our first boarding experience and she was so helpful and patient with us and our shelter dog who is still learning about the world. She is very communicative and you can tell she loves what she does! We will definitely book with Cindy again.”

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.
“Harley truly enjoyed his Rover stay! Chenelle kept me updated with pictures, and every single one warmed my heart. It was such a joy to see Harley having a blast and being so well taken care of. I’m incredibly thankful for Chenelle and her family for treating him like one of their own. 💕”
“Sheila did such a great job watching my sweet puppy. She responded to my questions and requests in a timely manner and was so sweet and gentle with my dog. She also sent pictures and gave updates while I was gone. I will definitely call on Shiela again!”
“MaKayla did a great job. We left our Italian Mastiff with her and she was able to handle all that dog! She has a great set up to keep dogs of all sizes safe and happy! I would definitely use her again to watch our pup.”
“Gizzy seemed happy with their family. She updated us a couple times. This was our first time using Rover. Hard to leave our dog with a stranger, but Melissa answered all our questions and made it easier to leave her.”
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 Greg were the best sitters ever! They communicated early on their pet-sitting process and made sure they had all of the vital information to provide the best possible care to our cat. Throughout the stay, they provided many photo updates (always our preference) and put us at ease leaving our pet with them. While they watched our cat, I’m confident that they would provide equally awesome care to a dog or any other animal as well. Definitely I would go with them as sitters again! They made my pet and I feel like family.”

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.
