“Terry and Fernanda are great! My dog was happy and well cared for. He had a couple of other dogs to play with which he loved. They took great care of my dog and I'll definitely take him back.”
“Molly was seriously the absolute BEST!! She sent me so many pictures and updates throughout Kota and Azalea’s stay, which made me feel so comfortable knowing they were happy and being well taken care of. She and her family are incredibly kind, and my dogs clearly felt right at home. They got lots of walks, attention, and love the entire time. I’m so thankful I found Molly and would absolutely trust her with my dogs again. I could not recommend her enough!! ❤️”
“Very kind and attentive. She asked lots of questions to make sure she understood and met my dog’s needs. She also sent plenty of pictures and kept me updated throughout the stay. I really appreciated the communication and care she provided. Honestly, I think my dogs received even more attention and love than they get at home! 😂”
“Janet is great. Both our dachshunds were happy to stay with her and she had no problem assisting our blind dog and administering meds. One of our dogs is a picky eater and a little afraid of smooth-surface flooring but Janet was able to accommodate him with no trouble.”
“Jaelyn took very good care of my dog! I was gone for 10 days. She gave me text updates and sent pictures. My dog loved her dog, Nova. She has a nice backyard the dogs can play with each other in. They played together well and were sad to leave each other! Jaelyn has a calming presence which is exactly what my dog needs! I recommend her services :).”
“We had such a great experience boarding our dogs with them over Labor Day weekend! They took amazing care of both of our girls and made us feel completely comfortable while we were away. My Ellie was on medication during her stay, and they gave every dose as directed and kept her right on her normal feeding schedule, which I really appreciated. They also sent us plenty of photo updates throughout the weekend, and it was so nice seeing how happy the dogs were. They had an absolute blast swimming, playing, and hanging out with their three Labs. 🐾💕 You can tell they genuinely love dogs and treat the ones staying with them like part of the family. We came home to two very happy, well-cared-for pups. I would absolutely trust them with our dogs again and highly recommend them!”
“We were so happy with the care our dog Nito received! Angela & Ashlyn gave him plenty of playtime and attention, which was exactly what he needed. We especially loved the picture and video updates, it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
“I’m so glad I found Beth. She did an amazing job taking care of my dog on a last minute trip, was communicative, and friendly. My dog had a comfy stay with her. Thank you so much. Highly recommended.”
About: I’ve always had a huge soft spot for dogs, they truly are family! I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality, whether they’re playful and energetic, a professional cuddle-bug, or a little more shy and independent. I’m a caring, attentive, and responsible pet lover who will treat your dog with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. From walks and playtime to belly rubs, cuddles, and keeping their routine on track, I want every pup in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby with someone else, and I don’t take that trust lightly. My goal is simple: happy dogs, happy humans, and lots of wagging tails! 🐶❤️ I work full time, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of love, attention, and care throughout the week. Monday and Friday are remote-work days for me, which gives me extra flexibility and more time at home with your pup. Tuesday through Thursday, I’m able to come home as often as needed depending on your pet’s routine and care needs. I’m happy to work with you to keep your dog’s normal schedule as consistent and comfortable as possible. I’m also available for weekend boarding, so your pup can enjoy a cozy, loving home environment while you’re away. 🐶❤️ My goal is to make pet care fit seamlessly into your dog’s routine—not disrupt it! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have a clean, comfortable, minimalist home with no current pets, giving your pup a calm environment where they can enjoy plenty of attention and feel right at home. My fenced backyard is park-like, providing a beautiful, secure space for outdoor play, exploring, and relaxing. I’m also situated right next to a park with easy access, making it convenient to enjoy longer walks, fresh air, and plenty of outdoor time. Before any stay, I’m happy to arrange a meet & greet so you and your pup can get comfortable with me, see the space, and make sure it feels like the right fit. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s routine, personality, and specific needs so I can provide care that feels as close to home as possible. Most importantly, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby with someone else. I’ll treat your dog like family, with patience, love, attention, and lots of tail-wagging moments. ❤️🐶
About: I have been caring for dogs for over 14 years. I have 2 now, and have fostered for Wags to Riches Animal Rescue for over 10 years. Family and friends also rely on me to care for their pups. I work full time from home. During the work day I am able to monitor the dogs in my home and let them outside as they need or want. I have a secure fenced in back yard for pups to play. My dogs are friendly and used to having other dogs come and go.
“Brooke did amazing with Joey. We set up a meeting beforehand to let the dogs meet, and they all got along swell. She left me pictures and updates on how Joey was doing. My dog looked happy and healthy when I picked her up. I would recommend her if you need your dog taken care of and want peace of mind.”
“Heather and family took excellent care of my 2 year old yellow lab for ten days. She has two large labs herself and they all played delightfully. My lab also learned the joys of being around young children (or grandchildren), which will serve him well in the future. Heather was flexible about a false alarm health issue my lab had around departure time, which I much appreciated. My dog was returned trim and happy. He misses his play buddies.”
“Love the energy she bought. You could tell she loved dogs and her golden, Luke, was a wonderful play mate. I enjoyed all the photos of them playing together and I thought it was super cute that Juno had a bandana on. We've decided to get him one after seeing how adorable he was in it.”
“Joseph was very helpful during our visit to The Gorge Amphitheatre. He was very communicative and flexible with our schedule. Would highly recommend and definitely book with again ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Maria made everything so easy, flexible with drop off and pick up timings! She sent us constant updates and pictures and Teddy sure made lot of friends during this stay!! We will definitely book with her again!”

Angela and Ashlyn were so wonderful with Remi! Sending daily updates and pictures and/or videos was so reassuring. Unfortunately Remi wasn’t feeling good one day and they took such good care of Remi and kept us in constant communication throughout. I recommend Angela and Ashlyn for all the comfort and love your fur baby may need. A bonus was the adorable Christmas pictures they took of Remi, how special for us! Thank you Angela and Ashlyn for all the care and love!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Yakima on Rover is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $56 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 61 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Yakima. 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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Yakima 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 Yakima.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Yakima 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 WA 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.
