“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.”

“My husband and I would like to express our appreciation to The Rover program. Without this great service we would have never met Bill and Debbie! They are now our official dogs sitters and the our pups- 2nd home! We are so Thankful! 🙏 Leaving our 2 dogs for 2 weeks was much easier than we expected. We give thanks to this wonderful couple, neighbors and new friends. They did provided a truly great atmosphere and daily loving care. Sharing videos, pictures and daily messages went a long way for us. Knowing that are dogs were eating well says it ALL. 👍 They were happy and content because they walked them several times per day! Plus, Following our instructions on their care is so note worthy. They allowed us to enjoy our trip with a real sense of peace. They met all our expectations by providing excellent and caring hands for our pups. We would definitely recommend this special couple to care for your fur babies! Blessings to all!

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.

“Monna and Clint were wonderful with our pups! They were loving and caring and sent lots of photos that made us so happy! Pups were tired when we got them home so we know they had lots of fun! ❤️”
“Toby came back a happy pup. I was at ease our whole trip knowing he would have a great time with the kiddos and all the attention he got. I received daily communication and pics : )”
“Darlene was fantastic! She took great care of my Lola while we were out of town. From the minute I met her to when I picked Lola up, I felt at ease and knew Lola was in good hands. I would and will definitely use her again to take care of Lola.”
“Best Rover experience ever! Mitra is the best! Frankie was loved and cared for as we do! Clean and spacious home and enclosed large yard. Endless games of catch with lots pictures. She truly goes over and beyond to make you and your furry babies feel at home! Thank you for taking such good care of our Frankie!”
“Jennifer was a true blessing! Any trips away involve stress, especially when pets and kids are involved! With all that I had to do she offered to pickup AND drop off, Captain. This may not seem to many like much, but to me - it was HUGE! Captain immediately fell in love with her (I know because he peed everywhere)! She kept me posted t/o his stay and even took him on his very first ever walk(s)! He seemed very content with her and came home happy! She also administered his UTI meds and given her schooling, I felt completely comfortable. I will definitely be utilizing her services again!”
“My husband and I were quite nervous looking for a sitter to leave our Cocker Spaniel and Senior Golden Retriever with for 5 nights. We are so glad we found Holly. We did a meet and greet before hand so the girls could get familiar with the environment and her dog, which put us at ease. During our time away we got updates with pictures letting us know how the girls were, what they were up to each day and that they were both taking their daily medication. My husband and I joked that our dogs looked way too happy without us lol but it was great to know they felt safe enough to let their guards down and have a great time in a new environment. We would definitely book with Holly again for future trips as needed. Thanks so much!”
“I’m so happy I found June and Junyeong! They were absolutely wonderful—sending us updates and pictures twice a day, which gave us such peace of mind. It’s clear they truly care, and our sweet girl was in great hands. We couldn’t have asked for better care and highly recommend them!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Today was our dogs first visit and this experience was amazing! Both hosts are fantastic and I’ve never used Rover or people that are not family to watch our dog and my husband and I are absolutely thrilled to find a family so great! They went above and beyond to take excellent care of our sweet old dog! I highly recommend them and will be using them for all of our future needs!”

Ginny and Andrew took excellent care of my dog, Norman while I was away.Ginny was reliable, communicative, and cared about Norman well being. I received updates and photos knowing Norman was comfortable and happy.When I returned Norman was relaxed and well cared for.
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!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Anthem on Rover is $41.17 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,021 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.
95% 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.
