“I couldn’t have found a better sitter for our Paisley. Kathy is definitely an animal lover. I couldn’t stand the idea of boarding her for a week and was looking for someone that would treat her like their own. Kathy did just that. I actually enjoyed my vacation without worry about my dog. I will definitely be calling on her again. Thanks Kathy!”
“She was great! She treated Chaplin as if he were own pet. I received daily texts and pictures so I didn’t have to query about him. He was well treated and he bonded well with the entire family. Thank you for taking good care of him. I highly recommend her!”
“Precious has went and stayed a few times and it’s always super easy and they always stay in contact! I love being able to take her to them on our trips away from home ! Pick and drop off are always a breeze. We will definitely be back ! 10/10 recommend !”
“Always a great stay @ Yusen's for our Remmie. Remmie is still a puppy, but will be 1 year on April 8th and Yusen understands puppies and high energy dogs. She is very good with him. Highly recommend her”
“Desiree was great with Shadow. She kept me updated and informed on his visit. Shadow fell in love with her and her dogs. I will use her again in the future when the need arises. I would recommend her to others.”
About: I grew up on a 10-acre ranch surrounded by animals of all kinds, so caring for pets has been a natural part of my life from the very beginning. I went on to spend 15 years working as a veterinary technician, which means I’m not just an animal lover I’m trained to handle medical situations and emergencies with a calm, experienced hand. Your pet will be in safe, knowledgeable care with me. Whether it’s administering medication, recognizing signs of illness, or simply knowing how to read an animal’s behavior, I bring a level of expertise that goes beyond your average pet sitter. I offer boarding and walks in a safe, comfortable environment. My home has a fully fenced yard, plus a separate fenced side yard — perfect for keeping pets apart if needed. I have a dog of my own who is friendly, but I’m happy to keep him separate from your pet for their comfort. I also have two kids at home, so your dog will get plenty of love and attention! I'm currently home full time homeschooling my 8-year-old daughter, so my days already have alot pf built in flexibility. I'm available for boarding most days and weekends, with weekday flexibility for drop-ins or walks. Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I'm already home with my kids and my own puppy throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard, with a separately fenced side yard as well, so dogs have secure space to play. My pool is also fenced off separately, so pets can't access it. I have my own puppy who loves company, so your dog won't be alone. With 15 years as a veterinary technician, I know how to read a pet's body language and catch early signs of stress or illness, and can crate separate, or supervise closely depending on what your pet needs to feel safe.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Golden Valley is $38
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Golden Valley
Here’s a polished, warm, and clear version of your review that keeps your voice while making it flow beautifully: --- Left my two pups with Marla, and from the moment we arrived they felt right at home. She has a large, fully fenced backyard that immediately gave me peace of mind knowing they’d be safe. Her pups are incredibly friendly and welcomed mine right away. My two had an absolute blast running around, exploring, and settling in. Highly recommend Marla if you want your pups to feel loved, safe, and entertained.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Golden Valley is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
100% of sitters in Golden Valley 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 Golden Valley 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 Golden Valley.
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.
You and your Golden Valley 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.
