“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Lauren! My son Joshua recently got Penny, and I have my dog Melo. We had been trying for weeks to get the two of them together before having to leave them with a sitter, but unfortunately, we didn’t get the chance until about an hour before drop-off. Needless to say, we were pretty nervous about how they would interact, especially since we were heading out of town on a business trip. Lauren did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of both of them. She kept us updated every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was especially great hearing that Melo and Penny were getting along so well. Lauren even commented that she was surprised they had just met because they acted like they had been friends forever! There were no mishaps, the dogs were happy, and the communication and care were excellent from start to finish. Lauren truly went above and beyond, and we couldn’t be happier with her service. We actually have another show coming up in November, and we will definitely be using Lauren again to watch our dogs. Five stars all the way! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We highly recommend her!”

“Such a great and flexible couple. My dog enjoyed his stayed and we had such a peace of mind leaving him with Jeannette and Richard. We had to add an extra day due to a change of plans and they were able to accommodate and so nice. This was our first time using Rover.com. Jeannette and Richard sure made this first experience so wonderful for us that we will return to this service and use again - of course our preference is ALWAYS to first see if Jeannette and Richard are available. : )”

“Brynna is AMAZING! She took such great care of my boxer. She had lots of toys and took him for regular walks. I received adorable check in pics and a very cute video of my dog playing with hers. Brynna took the time ahead of my dog's stay to understand any special needs or quirks about him so she could take the best care of him. My dog has never looked happier!”

“Yanelli was friendly and flexible with pickup & drop-off times. Her yard was big and my medium-sized dog was returned healthy, had been exercised, and seemed comfortable when I picked her up, not exhibiting any tell-tale signs of a bad experience. My dog and hers didn't play but co-existed comfortably (although my dog acted out a little by taking over her dog's kennel). I'll bring my dog back again.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all kinds since I was 9 years old. My specialty is fragile seniors with special needs, meds, diets and gentle care. My three girls are not dogs but sweet babies who give us unconditional love and are treasured. We will welcome yours the same way and keep them safe <3 I work out of my home office so this gives me the ability to supervise your pet. They can join mine in my office, we have plenty of comfy spots. I give frequent breaks, time for treats, cuddles and can take them on short walks to our little park (if desired) I also have a pet stroller. I have a fenced in yard with critter fencing and a gate guard. A large turf area perfect for zoomies! My two friendly little malti-pos and a Chinese Crested will be their play pals. They are low key and gentle.

“Lauren and her family were wonderful! They reassured me regularly that Vinny was happy, comfortable and had everything he needed. I could tell when I picked him up from their home that he felt a part of their family. It was so helpful to know he was in good hands. We will definitely be availing ourselves of their warm and welcoming services again. Thank you SO much for making both myself and my dog Vinny feel great about our vacations!”

About: I have lots of experience with dogs and cats. Throughout my childhood animals were my escape from reality. My dad bred dogs and I always loved them so much it was hard to say goodbye. In high school I took in a stray cat and it kept getting pregnant so I raised like 5 litters of kittens as well. To be honest I like animals more than people your babies are in good hands. I like to walk and get my steps in everyday so it won’t be much different walking with the doggos. I have dog and catsit for close friends and family but never strangers. Excited to do it! I work from home and my job is very flexible. I am my own boss so I can pretty much take breaks whenever I need to take your fur baby on walks or feed them as well as give them lots of attention when needed. My availability is very open and I love all animals. Since I work from home I’ll always be here to make sure your animal is well cared for and happy. I also go on multiple walks daily anyways to try and stay active so its perfect!!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Picture Rocks

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Picture Rocks is $28 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $39 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 November 2026, there are 525 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Picture Rocks. 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.

94% of sitters in Picture Rocks 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 Picture Rocks 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 Picture Rocks.

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 Picture Rocks. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 Picture Rocks 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.

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.
