Jody (Jolene) was very quick to respond and took great care of our lab! He had double ACL surgery in previous years so she ensured he was not roughhousing with other pets. Thank you!

Colleen was amazing! She was flexible and responsive throughout the whole process and shared photos during boarding. Most importantly, she was great to our pup! We highly recommend using her if you’re looking to board!

Our 2 dogs had a great time during their 1-week stay with Alysha and her family! She was consistently quick to respond and sent pictures daily, which we really appreciated! Our dogs enjoyed the mini pool in her backyard and many treats. We have no complaints from their stay with her! Would re-book if needed in the future!

Sara was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and also having a sitter for our dog that wasn't a family member. Sara made us feel comfortable right away. She kept us updated all weekend and sent us pictures and videos of our dog. He looked so happy in all of them. Rizzo had so much fun a lot Sara's, he was exhausted when we brought him home! We will definitely ask Sara to watch Rizzo again and recommend her to everyone!

Savannah was amazing! She went above and beyond for our dog. She provided pictures and videos during our vacation, and let us know how everything was going. You can truly tell how much she and her husband care. Our dog was sad to leave her and her dogs behind.. shows how much love he received! Highly reccommed!!

Our first time leaving our dog with anyone and we were nervous about it, but we couldn't have chosen better people to leave her with. They were very friendly and they kept us updated with pictures and messages and were flexible when I needed to adjust our times. Our dog had a great time with their sweet doggie. Will definitely book again.

About: I am an avid animal lover who worked as a vet tech for five years. My spouse and teenage girls are also animal lovers! We LOVE to have animal visitors! We have small dogs of our own who enjoy making new pet friends. I am a full-time nurse with very flexible hours and my spouse is home all summer! My teenagers are also available to help with our guests. We have a fenced in yard, and love to take our dogs for walks. Our dogs are very friendly with other cats and dogs. We have a special needs dog, so we are very comfortable with giving medications and other special needs.

About: I have had a lot of experience with dogs over the years and am just getting started with pet sitting. My priority is providing a safe and caring home for your pup while they are in my care. I currently have a yellow lab mix who loves other dogs. I have some experience with high energy dogs, nervous dogs, giving medicines, and helping finicky dogs eat. I work full time, but have a flexible job that will allow me to let your dog out as needed. Our routine includes three walks a day so I will make sure your pup is exercised. I am home evenings to spend with your dog. Weekends are the best times for me to board and your pup will be sure to get a lovely walk or hike! I have a comfortable and dog friendly apartment and access to a fenced yard/private dog park to play in. My yellow lab will love to keep your dog company, play, or show your dog the best places to nap. I can be flexible with whatever care instructions you need.

Nicole and her family were so great with our 6 month old cavachon. They loved on her like she was their own. We knew from our first visit to their home, that they were a perfect fit! Piper was so worn out from all the love and attention she received, she fell asleep on our 5 minute drive home. We will definitely be back!

About: Animal lover and owner for 15+ years, with experience caring for dogs, cats, snakes, and a crested gecko. I genuinely love caring for pets, whether they’re mine or yours! I’m always happy to help keep them safe, loved, and well cared for As a stay-at-home mom, my schedule is naturally flexible, which allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. I love being able to use that flexibility to help care for other families’ pets whenever they need it. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space and your animals with the same respect and attention I give my own. I follow all routines closely, provide plenty of love and supervision, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar environment.

About: I grew up with all sorts of animals and livestock, so I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and providing care based on each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and am happy to follow training routines, feeding schedules, and any special care instructions you provide. Whether caring for a playful puppy, a senior pet, or a shy animal, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel loved and cared for. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and will keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away if wanted! ☺️ Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work in an office from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. most weekdays, so I’m available before and after work, on evenings, weekends, and many holidays. On days I work from home or have flexibility in my schedule, I can often accommodate additional visits as well. When caring for your pet, I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure they’re cared for according to their routine. Whether it’s morning walks, evening playtime, drop-in visits, or overnight care that fits my schedule, I’ll provide dependable, attentive care and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages. I have a securely fenced backyard where dogs can play, explore, and get plenty of exercise under my supervision. I also have a friendly, well-socialized dog who enjoys the company of other dogs, but I’ll always introduce pets gradually and make sure everyone is comfortable. If a dog needs their own space for meals, rest, or simply feels more secure in a crate, I have a kennel available and will follow your preferences and your dog’s normal routine.

I think Missy has got to be the best sitter my dog Bella has ever had. Not only did Missy welcome the challenge of a spicy chihuahua but she mastered it. By the end she let her hold her! And if any of you are owners of little anxious dogs you know this is a big deal!! Missy also did a great job communicating with us and sending tons of photos which we appreciated. Having Bella stay with Missy made us feel at ease, allowing us to enjoy our trip to the fullest knowing Bella was in good hands. Would highly recommend booking with Missy and I’m sure Bella looks forward to her next visit!

Stephanie boarded 2 of our dogs for a weekend and was such an amazing sitter for them! She sent updates with pictures several times a day, letting us know about specifics like eating/potty/walks and also just lots of great commentary about how they were enjoying themselves. They were clearly so happy and comfortable with her, living their best dog lives all weekend! Her dog was very calm and friendly during introductions and ended up being best buds with our playful Golden. We never had any doubts that they were in the best hands, and will definitely hope to use Stephanie again in the future when we visit Ankeny!

Ashley and her family took such great care of my Ruby. I appreciated the updates and photos so much while I was missing my fur baby. Her kiddos definitely gave her lots of love and belly rubs. She got her medicine twice a day as instructed. Would definitely use Ashley again to watch my Ruby.

About: I've grown up with pets my whole life - dogs, cats, cows, horses, hamsters, mice, you name it I probably had it at one point. I have a dog of my own as well. I like to say I've had animal experience my whole life, but formally I have had over 8 years of experience in the animal care industry. I have spent time in veterinary clinics, grooming, boarding, doggy daycare, dog training, permanent sanctuaries, rehabilitation facilities, and farms. I have also fostered multiple dogs from local rescues. I recently earned a bachelors degree in animal science and currently attend veterinary school at ISU. I really really love animals and everything about them, and I would love to spend some time with your pet when you're not able to! Pet care is built into my schedule and comes as second nature to me now after being immersed in it for so long. On average, a minimum of 3-5 hours of my day are dedicated to my animals. I enjoy taking my dog on multiple walks a day, of varying lengths, to ensure he has enough mental stimulation and exercise to meet his needs. Training is also a constant in my household, whether that be scheduled training sessions, or simply consistent work throughout daily tasks. I find it important to build a bond with my animals as well as those I meet, and training helps strengthen that bond. Outdoor activities (walks, meeting friends dogs, swimming, fetch, etc.) and training exercises are my primary methods of exercise and activity with my pet, and would be with clients pets as well. On days it's not so nice I like to work on training inside or find new enrichment activities to keep my pet occupied and stimulated. I take pride in keeping my environment and my animals’ clean, so I regularly bathe and brush my dog, as well as clean food and water bowls. I will care for my clients pets as I would care for my own.

Kat and her kids took great care of our 11 year old beagle. When our pup got anxious because mom wasn’t coming back at bedtime, Kat and her daughter gave cuddles and love. They sent pics and updates!

Katrina and her family were great! They watched our dog Lucy for about 4 days, and during our time was extremely communicative and accessible for photos or updates. She was also extremely flexible when our travel plans had to change due to flight problems during our trip. Felt like our dog was well cared for, and had a great time with her pups and family as well! We will be back for sure!

Tiffany was great with our 2 shih tzus. Fast response time from the beginning, provided multiple updates even though we were only away for about 24 hours. We really appreciated how attentive she was during the meet and greet - it helped us feel confident that the visit would be successful! Definitely looking forward to the dogs staying with her in the future.

FAQs for Boarding - Gilbert

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Gilbert on Rover is $36.63 per night (as of August 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 298 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Gilbert. About 90% of Gilbert 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 IA 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.
