“Our dog loves Elizabeths home. Our third time there. Such a great yard to run in and her dog is ultra-friendly. Great communication too. Top notch Rover!”
“Another great stay with Greg for my pup, Baloo! He had a super fun time… I could tell by the updates and pics from Greg, which are much appreciated, and based off how fast he fell asleep when we picked him up. 🥰”
“Absolutely fantastic. First time boarding my dog anywhere and I was pretty nervous. She took great care of him(sent some photos of him of him by the pool relaxing lol). Will definitely be coming back :) thank you Menaj for giving my boy a great experience.”
“Shahla was absolutely amazing. From the very beginning, she was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring. You can tell she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. The attention to detail and level of responsibility she showed really stood out. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pet, but Shahla made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, kind, and attentive. Thank you again, Shahla — you’re the best!”
“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!”
“Lacey was great with an incredible back yard for Louie. She and her family were very welcoming to Louie and I felt Louie was getting great care with Lacey and her family.”
“Debbie & Bill are amazing! They find out what your dog likes and make sure that they taylor the stay to what your dog wants and needs are. Thank you for taking such great care of our Lexi.”
“Great experience! Our Tutu seemed very happy, and it's nice because Jennifer keeps only one dog at a time along with her own two dogs. So, whatever guest dog is staying gets plenty of attention. Also very accommodating when we were late because of an accident. Will definitely use again.”
“Terry was so wonderful with Rhea! I got photos throughout my trip and it put me at such ease knowing that she was with someone who cared about her! Terry was patient with all of Rhea’s quirks and I know Rhea will be excited to go back.”
“Heidi was easily the most communicative sitter we’ve found on Rover! she sent multiple updates every day with lots of pictures and videos, we felt as though we left our pup with a family member. Will definitely be using her services again”

“Kelli and her family were absolutely amazing - she eased my anxiety about leaving my dogs with someone I didn’t know last minute, sent updates and provided them attention as though they were her own! I could not have asked for a better experience ❤️ especially because I have a puppy and a very anxious adolescent pup!”
“Maria was fantastic! We were new to Rover for our cat and she was so responsive, sent so many photos and updates. Upon pick up our cat was reluctant to come with us because she created such a great space. We will definitely send our kitty to Maria again!”
“I cannot recommend Jeremy and his family enough! They have such kind hearts and such a love for animals. The set up that they have built for dogs is every dog and dog owners dream. Last minute I had to bring my dog the night before my reservation and Jeremy was more than accommodating. My dog stayed for 5 nights and Jeremy sent me pictures of him during the day playing in the field. I have a puppy and asked for some pointers and Jeremy was so helpful guiding me with tips to better train my dog. The most professional family with hearts of gold. Whiskey had the greatest time and I did not have to worry about him once while I was gone. I cannot wait to bring Whiskey back to play with them! Thank you sooo much to Jeremy and his sweet wife, daughter and son for treating Whiskey like their own the past few days.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Carefree
Brenda did a great job watching our dog for over a week. She was fantastic with accommodating our dog the entire time - from letting us do a meet and greet to managing her medication schedule, she was very trustworthy and kept our dog safe and happy while we were out of town. She even let our dog sleep on her bed. She also sent pictures/updates throughout and was very responsive whenever we reached out to her. She went out of her way to make the drop off and pick up process a breeze for us, which was really appreciated. We will definitely use Brenda the next time we need a dog sitter. Thank you Brenda!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Carefree on Rover is $47.08 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 2,638 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Carefree. About 92% of Carefree sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 pet, 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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
