“We had a great experience with our dog sitter, Wanny! From the beginning, communication was easy and reassuring, and it was clear she truly cares about the dogs she watches. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which made it so much easier to relax while I was away. Norman came happy, relaxed, and clearly cared for. It’s such a relief to have someone we trust with him.We’ll definitely be booking with Wanny again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”

“Ginny and Andrew watched my Abby for a week. They treated her as their own. She was very happy and well cared for. Abby became part of the family for the week she stayed with them. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Ginny watch her again. Thank you.”

“Debbie and Bill were absolutely fantastic! Our dog loved being with them! Our dog loved all the walks with Debbie. They kept us informed with photos and comments. We will definitely use them again!!”

“Abby had a great time at Jeanne’s house. Jeanne is great with dogs, lots of outdoor play time. She sent pictures and updates twice a day. Abby fit right in with her family. I will gladly use her again on my next trip.”
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover and experienced pet caregiver with a home full of personality including my two Shar-Peis (Dior and Hercules) and two tortoises(Cleo and Franklin). Caring for my special needs Shar-Pei Hercules has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important individualized care is for every pet. I know pets are family, and I treat every animal with the same love, safety, and attention I give my own. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, routine, or extra patience, I’m committed to making them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I work part-time (8 days per month), which allows me to dedicate a large portion of my time to pet care. My daily routine already revolves around caring for my own pets, including two Shar-Peis—one with special needs—and two tortoises. Because of this, I’m experienced in maintaining consistent schedules, providing attentive supervision, and adapting care based on each animal’s individual needs. I’m able to offer dependable, flexible care and give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a loving, calm, and attentive environment where pets are treated like family. I understand that every animal has different needs, personalities, and routines, and I make it a priority to follow their schedule as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, supervised play, potty breaks, exercise, and affection. I have experience caring for my own two Shar-Peis, including one with special needs, which has taught me patience, awareness, and the importance of individualized care. I also care for two tortoises, giving me experience with animals beyond dogs as well. I’m attentive to behavior, eating habits, and overall comfort, and I’m happy to follow any feeding, medication, or care instructions you provide. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and at home while giving you peace of mind while you’re away.
“He took my last minute needs and had my labs for a week. I got pictures frequently and my dogs were happy when we got them. My dogs just need someone who understands their breed and he does. I will use him again”

“Brandon and his wife are the best! They took great care of Joaquin. We didn’t have to worry and he kept in touch throughout his stay. He sent pics and even framed one for us as a parting gift. I would recommend Brandon and will be using his service again in the future. He truly had a great heart.”

“This was our first time using a pet sitter for our dog and it was a great experience! Page was so patient with our quirky Golden. She went above and beyond to ensure our girl had a great stay. Page was easy to reach anytime and she sent frequent updates on how things were going. Her home is beautiful, clean, and inviting. I would not hesitate to book Page as our pet sitter again.”

“Our dog Tucker bonded with Melinda and her family almost immediately. Her dog Murphy is easy to get along with and was a good companion to Tucker. Melinda walked them regularly, sent us frequent updates and gave Tucker loving care. Melinda is the perfect fit for Tucker and us.”

“Monna is by far one of the greatest sitters we have found. Monna treated our fur baby like her own and was very quick to communicate with! She went above and beyond, made our little one feel right at home and gave her all the love while we were away! I will definitely be booking with her for our future travel plans. Thank you again so so much! We appreciate you!”

“Kaitlyn and her family were absolutely amazing with our very large pup. They were extremely welcoming and accommodating, greeted us with open arms and smiles and were very reassuring when we dropped him off. She sent pictures and updates daily which was above and beyond. We can tell our dog had an amazing time and we cannot wait to book with her again.”

“Could not be more pleased nor thankful to have found Mitra! She and her husband, Phil, watched our puppy and we could tell immediately upon meeting them that they are true "dog people": caring, attentive, knowledgeable, genuine, and loving. They have a beautiful home and plenty of yard for the dogs to explore, run around, and play. We felt comfortable and confident in our decision to have them watch our guy, and the experience did not disappoint: Mitra sent daily updates with pictures, and it was evident Connor was safe, happy, healthy, and getting plenty of exercise. It is typically difficult to find the right people to care for one's pets as we would ourselves--especially when new to an area, as we are--and thankfully, Mitra and Phil are it!”

Wanny was absolutely wonderful! She was attentive to Luna’s needs and sent me updates with pictures and video every day. I could tell that Luna was very well taken care of. We will definitely be using Wanny again for our future needs. Luna had a great time. Thank you, Wanny!! ❤️
What a warm & loving environment- Missy couldn’t be better adjusted after her 5 night stay over the 4th with Ginny & family. And the sweet artful necklace collar gifted by the girls is adorable! The consideration & kindnesses warm my heart! Thank you, and for sending pics & updates! Missy is snoozing while we have new windows installed… I know she played hard to be this relaxed!

Jennifer is wonderful! She took the time to do a public meet up, so our pups could be introduced on neutral ground. She let us come over prior to boarding, so my pup would feel more comfortable during his stay. In addition to boarding our puppy, she also came to our house to check on and feed our cat. Everything was left just as it was before our trip. She even went above and beyond and took the kitty litter trash outside to our bins. She provided multiple daily updates with pictures and captions of both our boys. They were happy and healthy upon our arrival home! We will definitely be reaching out to her in the future (if she's willing to watch our crazy puppy again)!

We had a great experience with Debbie and Bill! Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay, and they took amazing care of our two beagles. They kept them busy with walks, attention, and plenty of activity. We could tell they were happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!

Vicki and Paul were absolutely amazing taking care of our two dogs for almost a week. We were pretty nervous about leaving them, but Vicki went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. She sent us daily photos and updates, which meant so much and really helped ease our minds while we were away. It was clear our dogs were being treated with so much love and care—they truly treated them like their own. You can tell they genuinely care about the animals they look after, and that made all the difference for us. We’re so grateful to have found them and would absolutely trust them again in the future. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Anthem on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,018 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Anthem. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Anthem sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Anthem landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Anthem 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 Anthem.
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 Anthem 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 AZ 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.
