“Benjamin was great with my weenie dog. Holmes had a fun time and I got lots of cute pictures and video updates. He really went above and beyond to make sure Holmes felt comfortable and was safe. This was my first time using rover and I’ll be using him as my sitter from here on out. Thank you so much!”

“We were so happy with our first experience, Cooper is a little shy and we got a couple of times a day updates letting us know what they were doing and how he was adjusting. By the end of the first 24 hours it looked like Cooper had made himself at home. This was our first real time away from both dogs and we could not have been happier. Photos everyday updates on activities it was like leaving our kiddos with family. Thank you so much for your support in preparation and for the flexibility as we had flight delays and did want to get our little ones back. Thank you for all you did to make this trip for us perfect leaving our little ones with you was easy. :)”

“Great experience with Claudia caring for our two dogs while taking a long weekend vacation. She kept us posted on how things were going, and they were happy and healthy when we picked them up.”
“First time I ever used Rover and first time I ever left my dog with a stranger. Rae was extremely kind and loving to my dog. She sent me text messages and pictures that I very much appreciated. My doggie was very well taken care of from Rae. She kept her safe and followed the instructions I reviewed with her. I would recommend Rae and will use her again.”
“Kelly and her family love dogs! They were so happy and excited to take my dog, Buddha, into their home and give him the 1 on 1 attention he needs. My dog does not like me leaving him, but he felt comfortable with them from the very start and didn’t even rush out of their house to leave! I was very surprised and that tells me that Buddha enjoyed his stay. Kelly’s house is set up very well for dogs and their safety. They played puzzles, got Buddha in the play-pool, and cuddled him. Kelly is detailed and communicates really well. I will be taking Buddha back there next time I have to leave town!”
“As always, Nick and Veronica take the best care of our girl, Sadie! They manage her medication and other high needs and their family is so kind to give her extra love! She is in paradise at their home. We appreciate their communication as well.”
“From the moment we dropped off Scorch, Chuck was friendly and welcoming. Communication throughout was excellent, with regular updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. We felt confident leaving Scorch in such a clean and secure environment. Scorch came home happy and well taken care of, which really says it all. We'll definitely be using Chuck's services again!”
“Kim was absolutely amazing! We had never left our dog at somebody’s house before, so we were a little nervous. Kim quickly put our nerves to rest, as she provided frequent updates, along with photos and videos. She really treated our pet as one of her own and actually got him to do some things that we haven’t been able to do (like eat vegetables!) we will use Kim again, and highly recommended her.”
“Sonia was the best! I really appreciated the photos and videos, I could see that Tina was happy and wagging her tail 🤣 I loved that Tina got to hang out with Chuy, he’s adorable. Everything was great, I will 100% keep booking with Sonia.”
“My dog Molly had a great time. I loved the daily pictures and updates. It was a great feeling that Molly was getting loved while we were away. We will definitely use Gillian again when we are away.”

Leanna & Berlin B. took an excellent care of my dog, Trixie, during my vacation. I was given daily reports and I could see that Trixie was looking happier as time went by. I strongly recomment Leanna & Berlin if you need to have someone take care of your loved one while you are away.
We always feel at ease when our pup stays with Sebatián and his family. Our dog is nervous girl, but we never worry that she isn’t given all the love, fun, and care she needs to feel comfortable during her stay. He is very responsive, flexible and makes the whole process a breeze!
Kim is amazing! My dog isn't the easiest dog to deal with and is was her first time being away from me. But she handled her very well and sent me pics and videos to let me know how she was doing, which made me feel less stressed. I have highly recommend using her! Thanks, Kim!
Jennifer was amazing with my 2 pups. She was prompt when replying to the potential last minute booking as my family could not assist with care during this trip. She was fabulous at sending update photos of their activities. They were truly safe with her and they showed it upon my return. Tilly knew it was time to go home and made her way over giving Jenn a hug and kiss goodbye, her way of saying thank you and I love you! Impeccable care and love given during my time away. Jenn is gold!
Tammy was very responsive and helpful as I looked for a temporary home for my aunt's dog. Pearl obviously felt very comfortable with Tammy and Lola which showed in the several photos that were shared. I would arrange a stay with Tammy again. She provides a friendly home away from home.
Rachel has been amazing! We’ve utilized her multiple times. She is extremely accommodating and flexible, even accepting with only a days notice! I love that my boy is in a home environment, roaming freely with outdoor access and getting so much care and attention! Rachel sends the most adorable updates with photos and videos that completely light up my day! I am so glad we found her🐾♥️

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in El Mirage can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their El Mirage 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 El Mirage.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 El Mirage 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.
