“Gina and her family made me feel at ease leaving my dog Chubbs in their care. I received many updates and pictures of how much fun Chubbs was having. I made me happy to see Chubbs having such a good time. Chubbs is an English bulldog and need extra attention with daily cleaning of his face folds or he will get an infection. Gina did a wonderful job keeping Chubbs’ face clean dry.”

“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!”

“Rene was so kind and understanding when we had an emergency and needed someone we could rely on with our boy. She was very flexible to help accommodate our needs and we know our boy was well taken care of in her home. We can’t thank her enough for everything she did to help us and care for him.”


“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kaitlin. She watched our 150 lb cane corso Bruce and cared for him like he was family. Bruce fell in love with her and Koko from the start and it made my heart happy that he was in a warm and loving home while we were away. Kaitlin’s communication was excellent and I loved all the daily updates and photos I received from her! Even when my large dog took over her bed for naps 😂 Kaitlin is very knowledgeable about dogs and their behavior and even did some training with our big guy during his stay. I whole heartedly recommend Kaitlin to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She is truly the best!”

“So glad to have found Diana. It was so nice to find someone who could provide a safe and calm environment for our dog and she took great care of her. Great communication and sent us updates with pictures which was appreciated!”

“Jennifer took great care of our senior dog. It was a peace environment for him and Jennifer sent regular updates along with pictures. I highly recommend her and will using her again soon.”

“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.”

“Keisha (and her children) took great care of my baby girl Raven. Highly recommend and will book her again.. She was very responsive to my messages and even sent a photo of my pet when I was missing her.”

“Heidi and her family are great with Gordie! We know he is treated like we would treat him when we leave him with Heidi. We will continue to have Heidi care for our dogs whenever we need to!”

“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.”

“Our 9 year old Lab had a blast during his 8 night stay! He was certainly loved and cared for. Don't think he wanted to leave! Great communication and flexible! We'll be using Eric and Christina again for sure!”

“Maria sends me lots of photos so I can keep track of my cat. She's very reliable, and I don't have to worry about the cat at all when I'm not home.”

“Amber and Ryan were amazing with my old, blind man Uno while we were gone for a quick trip to California for Soccer for the kids. They gave updates, photos and videos to highlight Uno’s time with them. Thank you for taking care of him like one of your own!”
“Booking with with Jackie was our first time using Rover and we're so happy with how it went. We had a handful of unexpected last minute changes to our schedule and Jackie was so flexible and understanding which we truly appreciated. Jackie is quick to respond and sent frequent updates/pictures of Sunny during his stay and he truly seemed happy and comfortable staying with her in her home. He even seemed a little bummed when we picked him up to go home, haha! Overall, we had an amazing experience with Jackie and would love to consider her for future trips. We think Sunny will for sure be ecstatic to see her again!”

“Thanks you Kristin for taking such good care of Lady and Toby while we we on Vacation. I really appreciated the pics and text messages throughout their stay with you. Toby really likes that rib bone you have him. Sure kept him occupied most of the night. ? I will definitely bring them to you again and recommend you to all my dog loving friends.”

“Sierra and Jason thank you for taking care of my Lilly and providing me with updates along with pictures. You showed my fur baby compassion when she was triggered by the storm. I truly appreciate that and would recommend your services to everyone! Thank you!”

“Great communication. Amazing facility. Dogs have access to water and AC at all times. Beautiful, clean, farm environment! I knew our dogs were in top notch hands! Will definitely be a repeat customer! Highly recommend!”

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.
