“If there were 10 stars I'd select that for our experience with Ash T. She couldn't have been more kind or accommodating! She came to the hospital and picked up Bella, and took excellent care. Updated us consistently on how our baby was doing. Bella's mom suddenly had a stroke and the sitter who was keeping her had a family issue so we were stranded with her at the ICU. Ash T to the rescue! Our girl was in living hand within an hour. She couldn't have done anything more to help Bella and us. I just can't say enough good things about her. She was a God send for Bella and for us. Thank you just doesn't cover it. But, thank you so very, very much.”
“Christian and Hana were very nice and took great care of my dog Oreo! I got daily updates and photos about how he was doing. They gave him lots of attention and he seemed very happy when I picked him up.”
“Amazing and humble service! Received photos and videos everyday of my pup having fun. Instant messages back and forth. Felt super comfortable with Zinnia and will hope to use her in the future!”
“Cindy was amazing! First time boarding Tommy for the weekend and Cindy gave great updates and pictures. Really felt at ease and Tommy came home happy and relaxed. Highly recommend.”
About: I've been around dogs my whole life. I grew up with two chihuahuas and a beagle. I now have a German shepherd and a mini Dachshund. I can definitely say I get the best of both worlds!. I have great passion for the welfare of all animals in general and enjoy caring for people’s pets. I work from home and am usually available after 2pm. Please send message and we can work something out. I am willing to accommodate if possible. I like to interact and play with your active pet or just chill out with your calm pet it. It all depends on what your pets needs are.
“Teddy was very happy staining with Natalie. She took great care of my dog. I trust her and that's why it's the 3rd time I booked her petsitter service. Thank you, Natalie!”
“Brooke and her family are amazing! They take amazing care of my Izzy and I swear she gets so excited when we are close to their house because she knows it will be a great time. If you book with Brooke and her family you will find a sitter that you will want to use anytime you need one!”
“It was a wonderful experience boarding my dog Rico with Tricia. There was always open communication and Rico seemed to really enjoy himself. I look forward to booking with Tricia again in the near future.”
“Ollie has a great time will Niki!! She was responsive, respectful and patient with him. He's not always the friendliest, but when he finds someone he can trust he's super loving. Thank you for you care and attention. Would recommend!”
“Xavier did great with my 15 year old lab/collie mix! I was travelling out of the country for 10 days and everytime I got service I had new photos to view. He kept me well informed and I knew my dog was enjoying himself and the nice big yard Xavier has to offer.”
“Brandy took such great care of our puppy, Sammy, while we were away. She kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. It was obvious Sammy was happy, comfortable, and getting lots of attention. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Brandy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
About: I’m a retired animal lover who is home most of the day, which means your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and affection—not just quick check-ins. I will care for your animal as if they were my own to give you peace of mind. I am retired and available nearly anytime to check in on or care for your pets either in my own home or yours. Central Phoenix I have a fenced in yard for dogs to run and play. My home is quiet and peaceful and a great place for your pet to feel right at home.
“We love how much Dawn & Andrew love on our Tito! Every time we go back he runs right in the door and they treat him like family! We are so grateful!”
“What an amazing sitter!! She sent us photos of our bean and gave updates! Also sent him home with a little goodie bag, photo and paw prints of bean! Such a wonderful person!”
“I would highly recommend Kim when looking for dog boarding. Kim watched my dog, Darby, for one week and I consistently received photos/updates daily. Darby can take a minute to warm up to some, but was immediately excited to meet Kim when we went for our "meet and greet", which put me at ease seeing her so comfortable. Kim was also more than willing to accommodate us with special instructions and quirks that Darby has and I wouldn't hesitate reaching out to Kim for future dog boarding help. Thanks Kim for keeping Darbs so happy while we were away!”
“I knew our little guy was in good hands with Miriam! She’s super sweet, great communicator, and truly a caring compassionate person. 1000% Will be booking with Miriam again!”
“Kristine and her family were wonderful with our two dogs! They treated them like their own and our dogs seemed so happy and comfortable in their home, with their kids and their dog. I loved getting updates/pics of them and communication was great. we will definitely book again!”
“Emily was great with Honey. She was very accommodating, provided lots of updates and photos, and most importantly was loved by our dog. We will certainly use her again and we can’t recommend her enough!”
“Ashley is such a sweetheart! She really loves my little Timmy and it's so comforting knowing he's happy and being well cared for. He can't get out of the car fast enough when we pull up to her house and he runs up the stairs to greet her, tail wagging.?”

Susan was an absolutely wonderful sitter for Bert! I would recommend her without any hesitation. She went above and beyond in making sure that Bert was comfortable, even teaching him to be comfortable getting into an elevator for the first time! Susan also provided detailed updates full of cute photos and videos every day to reassure us that Bert was having a great time! We have already booked another stay with Susan because Bert had such a wonderful time, and we feel 100% confident that he will be safe and very well cared for!
Kenzie is an exceptional pet sitter! She is highly organized, meticulous about safety, and follows all instructions as outlined. Once I communicated all of my pets' needs, she was incredibly thoughtful and proactive (even made a ramp for my dog who's recovering from a hip injury so that she could go outside). It is clear she has a lot of experience—especially with housing senior dogs—and she truly understands the nuances and stress pets can feel when left in a new environment/are apart from their owners. She anticipated every need to keep my dog calm, and she was visibly comfortable under her care. She also did house visits for my other dog, handled the logistics, communicated questions/concerns/observations promptly, and was incredibly timely with photo updates. It was clear to me that Kenzie knows how to navigate animals and genuinely loves them. I really felt at ease entrusting my pet and home to her. I highly recommend her!
We’re so thankful for the wonderful care Jasper received during his 10-day stay! ❤️🐾Jasper had a little trouble adjusting at first, especially at night, but they were incredibly patient, understanding, and caring. They made sure he felt comfortable, loved, and safe throughout his stay.I really appreciated the regular updates, pictures, and videos. It gave me peace of mind knowing Jasper was in good hands. He also had a great time making new furry friends! Sarra, Thank you so much for treating Jasper like part of your family. We truly appreciate all the love, attention, and patience you gave him. We would definitely recommend you to other pet parents! ❤️🐶
Amber was amazing my older dog summer stayed with her and her amazing doggo for 4 or 5 days and she was sending me pictures and videos and updates on how my chihuahua terrier summer was doing. Leaving five stars would leave more if I could and definitely would book again and I think you should do the same!
Jamie was amazing! She has the cutest set up for pups that she watches in her home. She was so sweet, kind, and my pup warmed up to her immediately. She sent me a few of her favorite photos she took of my babygirl and was so communicative during the whole thing. Definitely will be coming to her in the future!
I can’t say enough good things about Jordan as a dog sitter! She has taken care of Jacoby on two separate occasions now, and both times have been fantastic. Jordan checked in with me frequently, sending adorable pictures of Jacoby having the time of his life. You can tell she loves him like one of her own. Every time I pick him up, he’s full of energy and happiness, which speaks volumes. I am so sad we’re moving out of state, as I would have loved to keep Jordan on as Jacoby’s permanent sitter. If you’re looking for someone who is caring, trustworthy, and truly devoted to your pet, Jordan is absolutely the best. I can’t recommend her enough!
Flexible, accommodating, and so professional. We were in a bind and she made herself so available to us last minute when we needed to go out of town same day. We have w senior dog who can be reactive with other dogs. She kept him so safe and happy. I can tell he had a great time with her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Phoenix is $43 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $63 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 3,412 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Phoenix. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Phoenix 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 Phoenix home-away-from-home, 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 Phoenix.
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 Phoenix 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 , 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 .
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.
