“Wanny was absolutely wonderful with Matcha! She sent us frequent updates, along with so many beautiful photos and videos (honestly better than the ones we take ourselves!) It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Matcha is still a young puppy, and she was incredibly patient and understanding with him. She kept a close eye on his playtime, made sure he was comfortable, and clearly put a lot of care and attention into his routine. When we picked Matcha up, he looked happy, healthy, and well cared for. We truly appreciate everything Wanny did for him and would absolutely book with her again in the future. Highly recommend! 🐶✨”
“I needed a one-nighter as I am camping near by and wanted to see a show. I think it may have been one of the better nights that Jax had on this trip. It wasn't just an overnight stay he was adopted into the family for 24 hours and he was loved on a lot. I highly recommend Andrew and Ginny.”
“Jason was very easy to communicate and work with. He was flexible with drop off and pick-up time, responsive over text/messaging, and he sent great pictures that made us feel at ease. Highly recommend Jason for boarding!”
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.
“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.”
“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.”
“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!!”
“Holly was absolutely wonderful with our elderly dog! She was so caring & patient with him, even though he won the early riser award. Thank you so much Holly! We hope you were able to sleep in this morning ;)”
“Melinda & her family are the best! Our anxious boy had the best time and we never had to worry about him while we were away. We’ve had not great experiences with Rover sitters in the past but we will 1000% be using Melinda again. She will love and spoil your pup like they are her own and she was great at sending pictures and videos!”
“My dog Molly stayed with Mitra for three days recently. I could not have been more pleased with her attention to my dog's needs and staying in contact with me as well. Molly came home rested and relaxed. I will definitely be booking with Mitra for my next trip. Laura B.”
“Darlene and her family took great care of our fur babies while we travelled to France recently. They were happy and enjoyed playing with Benny. We really appreciated the great care, updates and photos which allowed us to enjoy our time away. Thank you so much!!”
“JY and June cared for Twig for over one month. They took Twig out multiple times per day. They brought her to the dog park daily with their own dog to play. They have a lovely place with a doggy door to a fenced in yard. They sent pictures and a video everyday. It was so nice to see my little girl everyday playing and resting. It gave me some peace that she was doing well. I’m so happy to have found them to care for Twig for such a long time! They were great!”
“She’s definitely a dog person, I have one little stinker in my bunch and he didn’t even bark at her at all when I arrived which Is rare, she sent photos and my dogs were definitely taken care of!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Gina. She’s reliable, trustworthy, and truly caring. She treats my dogs like her own. They always come home happy and well cared for. She’s my first choice every time and I highly recommend her!”
“Monna is The Best! She took such good care of our little shih tzu —walking her, feeding her and most of all loving her.! Our doggie was missing Monna when we brought her home!!”
“Shushma did a great job caring for our dog Rosie while we were out of town. She sent many picture updates which are my favorite. Would highly recommend.”
“We left our 1-year-old Dachshund with Lyndsey for a day visit to see if it was a fit and he loved the attention she gave him and the walks. We then booked a week-long stay, and our pup had the same great experience. Lyndsey provided daily updates with pics... she just loves animals and enjoys taking care of them. Thank you, Lyndsey! We appreciate the great communication. It sure put us at ease, it was our first time being away from Franklin. We will book again!”
“I had a great overall experience with Larry & Tiffany. They took very good care of my dog, giving her plenty of love and attention. They followed all the instructions I provided and also did a great job of keeping me posted, sending timely messages and pictures. I would recommend them for anyone who has a dog like mine that struggles with separation anxiety. From the pictures they sent, I could tell that my dog was having a blast while staying with them.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Anthem
Debbie and Bill was very attentive and loving with our Furbabies! We are going to start socializing them so that they warm up to people quicker. Daily we would receive updates and pictures numerous times. It put us at ease that we found the perfect sitters. They took them on walks a couple of times a day and let the pups enjoy their fenced in backyard.
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)!
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 $42.28 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,065 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.
