“Shaun was wonderful! He was there to help while I was in a pinch for doggie care. I was running late and he met us with kindness and understanding. I even got a few cute pics of my besties time with Shaun. 10/10 would stay again.”
“Another wonderful day for our Cava at Rebecca's house! Cava was so excited when we pulled up and even gave Rebecca kisses which is a rare occurrence so for that to happen after just one day of care is amazing. We got cute photos of Cava relaxing and we know she was well taken care of.”
“Unbelievable service and attention. We received pictures and videos of Hope during her stay and our family couldn’t be happier with Jay and his family. I cannot recommend them enough”
“Scot accepted our request for day care services over a holiday on short notice. He was gracious, responsive, and a strong communicator. Our pup seemed to do great and enjoyed his time with Scot. Will book again the next time we need pet care in St George!”
“Angela was great! Our girls were treated like queens, Angela sent pictures of them laying on their own pads. Also took them for a walk. In the morning before it was too hot. Would highly recommend and would use again when in UT.”
“Second time using Jennifer and it was awesome! My dogs love her! They always come home happy (vs the other boarding places, they come home scared and nervous.) can’t wait to use you again!”
“The Hintons accommodated my early drop off and my sometimes rowdy puppy so flawlessly! So thankful to have found them. My puppy is happy and exhausted from playing all day. I will definitely use them again when we need dog sitting! Thank you so much!”
“My Lucy had so much fun and met a new doggy BFF while with Skylar. Communication was great and made me feel very comfortable leaving my pup for the first time. Will be booking again!”
“Cindy looked after our baby for the day and took amazing care of her, sent us updates/pictures every few hours, and only charged us a few dollars extra for almost 12 hours of daycare!”
“Here’s a review you could post on Rover: “I want to thank Amy for taking such great care of my puppy, Blu, for the day! It was my first time leaving her, and Amy made me feel so much more comfortable. I loved the updates and adorable pictures she sent—Blu looked like she was having such a fun time! It was clear that Amy genuinely cared for Blu, and I could see how happy and relaxed my puppy was in her care. I truly appreciated the peace of mind knowing Blu was in such good hands. Thank you, Amy!””
About: My family LOVES animals and will make sure your pet feels right at home! We want your pet to be excited to come back to stay with us! We have a fully fenced backyard with lots of room for playtime. We will play fetch, go on walks, and make sure your pet gets plenty of fun! After they’re all tuckered out from play, we’ll make sure they’re given lots of snuggles, love and attention. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I take the time to learn your pet’s unique routine, personality, and needs so they receive the same love, attention, and care they’re used to while you’re away! I’m a stay-at-home mom with two kids, ages 9 and 14, who share my love for animals. Being home most of the day allows me to give your pet the time, attention, and care they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and a friendly Goldendoodle who loves making new friends. Whether your pet enjoys playtime or prefers a quiet place to relax, we’ll make sure they feel comfortable and secure.
“Jackelyn was fantastic with communication and sending pics with updates. Our Husky/Shepherd mix had such a fun day playing with the other dogs at Jackelyn's house.”
“Gigi did a great job! We needed a last minute sitter for our pup Koda. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. She sent us photos keeping us updated on how he was doing and took great care of our little guy :)”
About: I have fifteen years of experience as a kennel technician, dog groomer, and trainer. Pets being such joy, I can't help but give back to them. I currently work part time, for hours shifts in the middle of the day, four days per week. This means I can offer both boarding and daycare. Eventually, I'd prefer to work with your pets full time, spending all of my days getting to know them, working with them, and acting as your partner in maintaining their good health. I have a fully fenced backyard and a room in my house dedicated to kennels, food, and medication. I have two dogs of my own who are very friendly, and seven cats who have spent their whole lives watching other cats and kittens come and go since my husband and I were, until recently, an active foster home for cats and kittens. My own pets have the run of the house when I, or my husband, are at home. Your pets will have the same unless their needs dictate otherwise.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for about eight years now. I grew up with, a Doberman miniature version and a Chihuahua I love them! I do live in Washington now with my own pets so my childhood dogs do not live with me anymore! They love me I click with dogs really well and am very patient. I truly love animals. I now have my very own dog a great dane and two wonderful cats ! I am currently employed as a part time gymnast coach and I couldn’t be happier with my job. I have been in love with animals since I can remember, I love their personalities and souls! I have a yard (it is not fenced in) i do live right next to a church with a very large grass area I would love to play with your dog!! I have clean running water I also had a dog that I had been taken care of for my whole life but most recently passed but he lived with diabetes and is blind so I have a little bit more experience in that area. I did provide him with insulin and the proper care that he needs.(My diabetic dog does not live with me anymore as now I live in my own home) I love animals and I am very patient and love to learn about all their personalities and needs.
About: I’ve had many doggies in my family since I was five. Since I’m a paraplegic (going on five years now) and I have an ESA medium sized doodle, we would love a low-key playmate to share our adventures with—even if it’s just cuddling up on the couch, watching a movie. Being a paraplegic, I have access to my own door to the fenced in backyard from my bedroom. My parents are always home—which is where they also work—and would provide help with cuddles during our nightly movie fests. (Note: we prefer well trained, good natured, willing-to-be-low-key, but able to run at least two miles doggies. A love of Charlie Chaplin, like my dog, is optional) Daily, my Hairy and I go on walks—me on a three wheel scooter OR a three wheel bike, and never ever if it’s more than 100 degrees. If it’s 90-100 degrees, I thoroughly hose down my doggie and bring lots of water, and aim for a trail or park with lots of grass. If your dog is well mannered, I will let them loose and we can play with the ball.) My parents and I all work our individual jobs at home. I’m a writer in a wheelchair with my dog Hairy, who is in every respect like the hero we all have read about and adore. As I work on my computer, Hairy sits on his bed in the corner, waiting for another doggie boarder to play with! Yet, daily, your dog and mine would get at least two walks/bike rides/3 wheeled scooter rides so they get exposure to the world outside. (Some soaking down may be required for heat purposes.) Lots of treats, loves, cuddles, and relaxation provided with a varied fenced-in backyard are always at hand. Fenced yard, fountains, maybe 25 trees, no cats (bleah!), grass galore, and stairs to explore! Inside our environment is a working from home angelic nurse practitioner mom, a hard working engineer dad, and a writer (that’s me! Find my first book on Amazon called Prelude in N Minor as well as my other books!).

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Washington
Shaun was amazing! We needed a last-minute sitter for the day while we hiked The Narrows, and he took such great care of our dogs, Messi and Sedona. He was responsive, reliable, and gave us complete peace of mind so we could fully enjoy our hike. They both came back happy, well cared for, and clearly had a great time. We would absolutely book with Shaun again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter!
Jennifer was very responsive to my Rover request which I greatly appreciated. She was very nice and I didn't feel worried about leaving my dog with her. My dog is an energetic puppy, and I could tell that Jennifer was very experienced in taking care of dogs. I would love for Jennifer to take care of my dog again.
Teisha and family were great with George. They provided a safe, clean and fun environment and he was happy and tired upon pick up! I appreciated Teisha’s timely communication and flexibility with drop off and pick up. Highly recommend and will definitely rebook in future!
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience—5 stars all the way! Over Easter weekend, he truly went above and beyond while taking care of our 10-month-old Bernese Mountain Dog, Cody. Not only did he keep Cody active and engaged, but he made sure he had an absolute blast the entire time. He took him hiking by the lake (which Cody clearly loved), and even had other dogs over so Cody could play and burn off that endless puppy energy. What really set this experience apart was the extra thought and care he put in—he organized an Easter egg hunt for all the dogs he was sitting on Sunday. It was such a creative and fun touch, and it showed how much he genuinely cares about the dogs he looks after. On top of all that, he kept us completely at ease by sending frequent pictures and video clips throughout the stay. It was great seeing Cody having so much fun and being so well cared for while we were away. Cody came home happy, tired, and well cared for—which is exactly what every dog owner hopes for. We’ll absolutely be booking with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your dog like their own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Washington on Rover is $36.63 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Washington commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 90 sitters in Washington, 80% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
