“Joanna was the first person we used from rover and the first stranger we left our pups with. She was so nice to us from the start and I could tell immediately that she was an animal lover. During my trip she sent is pictures and videos with a written message updating us daily! She loved our dogs like they were her own!!!”
“Although I've worked for Rover in the past, I was skeptical to leave my baby with anyone else. There is no one like me! That is until I read about, met, and saw where Phyllis lives. Perfect yard and perfect person for my picky Baby "Boomer". I am so pleased with Phyllis. I really appreciated the photos, video, and updates. Very kind and patient. Boomer and I look forward to using her services again. So glad I found her!!!!”
“We needed someone last minute after our plans fell through and they were able to take a Koda in and luckily their drop off and pick up times fit right with our schedule. They had no problems giving him his medicine and were in communication with us to make sure they were giving the proper dosage. We also received pictures during the stay which put us at ease about how the stay was going. Ariana and Alex were great!”
“Gaius was absolutely wonderful with my girl Lilith! I was so worried about her during the holiday but she had such a good time. Even made a new friend with his adorable dog He sent pictures and videos and kept me informed of how she was doing.. Prompt with pickup and drop off. Will definitely use him again.”
“Monica took really good care of my fur baby for 12 days. She is very good at communicating and sent me pictures throughout my trip. I was at peace and was able to enjoy my vacation worry free. Myles seemed to really enjoy himself and had lots of play time. I would definitely recommend Monica she is definitely the sitter. Myles will definitely be back !”

“After our meet and greet with Emily and Mowgli we felt good about leaving Luna with them for an overnight stay. The stay went perfectly. Luna was well cared for and we felt comfortable that Luna was in good hands! Have already rebooked for another stay.”
“I’m so happy with how she took care of my fur baby. This is the first time I had to leave him with someone outside my family for days and she was more then helpful and making me feel confident on my decision on doing this. She sent so many photos and updates, and it definitely made me so relaxed knowing she was taking care of my cat. Will definitely go back for my future endeavors”
“Dakota is excellent! You can really tell that she has a true passions for this and loves animals! I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with her during my travels. She even sent photos and updates of him! Would definitely book with her again!!”
About: I've cared for animals since I was a little girl. Taking in unwanted litters, and finally when I was 16 I began working at a doggy daycare. I now run my own doggy care center, own 3 dogs myself, and work closely with fosters and rescues in the area. My schedule is very accommodating as I am willing to go out of my way to ensure your pets are cared for. I have a flexible job, and a home that is equipped to care for animals! I love making report cards to track their eating, behavior, and fun stuff we did/learned while in my care! I also work for a dog treat company, and provide organic dog treats!
“We're familiar with Rover and we did Rover but we never had someone else watch our dog, we were skeptical about it. Natalie and Jorge were amazing!! The meet and greet went great they were nice and professional and we can tell they love animals! It is nice to see they treated Gunner (our dog) like their own! What makes things even better they gave us a picture magnet of our dog! Highly recommend and will be using them again!!!”

As of November 2026, there are 507 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across El Mirage. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.
97% 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in El Mirage. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 CA 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
