Kelly is so caring and took amazing care of our Toby. She was super responsive and flexible with us as we had a family emergency at the drop-off time and horrible traffic at the return time. I would strongly recommend Kelly to other dog owners that want a loving, caring home for boarding or daycare.

Celynda was amazing with Liv. She took care of her like she was her own. We never had to wonder how Liv was doing as Celynda was very good about sending updates and photos. I would definitely book with her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone else in need of a pet sitter. She is sure to provide excellent care!

We couldn't be happier with the care and treatment Maxwell received while in the home of Myron and Pat. He is still in the puppy stage, and I don't know who wore out quicker...them or Maxwell. We would not hesitate to leave Maxwell with them anytime the need arises. We absolutely give this couple an A+.

Mitch, his wife, and his pup Shelby were amazing! I felt very comfortable leaving Tuna with them. I think she had a little mini vacation. Lots of walks and playing. I got lots of photos and messages from Mitch. Two things Mitch does that not many others do: 1. Mitch let my dog sleep in their bed. 2. Mitch only takes 1 dog at a time. I felt comfortable knowing that my dog would not be around any not so nice dogs. I would highly recommend Mitch. I would not hesitate to use him again. My dog came home happy and healthy.

This was my first time using rover and I’ll be using him as my sitter from here on out. Thank you so much!

From the moment we dropped off Scorch, Chuck was friendly and welcoming. Communication throughout was excellent, with regular updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. We felt confident leaving Scorch in such a clean and secure environment. Scorch came home happy and well taken care of, which really says it all. We'll definitely be using Chuck's services again!

We picked up our guy today after being gone for 8 days. First time leaving him anywhere so we were nervous. Chris and Julia were amazing. They were so nice and made us feel comfortable. They sent us daily updates and we could see he was enjoying himself and getting along with their dog. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands. They’ll definitely be our go to sitters in the future.

Nick and Veronica were amazing. We left our dog in their care and not even for a minute we were worried about our dog. We kept getting updates and pics throughout the day about his food, activities etc. They showered so much love that he was missing them after coming home. We appreciate Nick and Veronica for giving him safe space and environment and a lovely home with such warmth. I recommend everyone to book them and I would keep rebooking them for our dog. Thank you so much for keeping our Rio like your own.

About: Dogs are family, and I’ll treat yours like one of my own! 🐶❤️ From zoomies and long walks to belly rubs and couch snuggles, I’m all about keeping pups happy, safe, and loved. Plenty of attention, playtime, treats, and tail wags guaranteed! 🐾🎾🦴 Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because we both work remotely, giving us plenty of time and flexibility to provide attention, walks, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. We also have two friendly dogs of our own who love having new furry friends around. Your pup will have lots of company, attention, and love while staying with us! 🐶🐾❤️ Safety and comfort are very important to us. We have a spacious home with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and enjoy some fresh air. We also have separate rooms available if your pup prefers some quiet time or needs their own space. Since we’re home throughout the day, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, and love while still having space to relax and feel at home. 🐶🏡🐾

Kylea was amazing with our Australian Shepherd, Tiger! She treated him with so much love and gave him all the care (and energy outlet) an Aussie needs. Her communication was prompt, reassuring, and professional throughout. We felt completely at ease knowing Tiger was in such capable, loving hands. I couldn't recommend her services more highly to anyone looking for top-notch pet care!

We always feel at ease when our pup stays with Sebatián and his family. Our dog is nervous girl, but we never worry that she isn’t given all the love, fun, and care she needs to feel comfortable during her stay. He is very responsive, flexible and makes the whole process a breeze!

Jennifer was amazing with my 2 pups. She was prompt when replying to the potential last minute booking as my family could not assist with care during this trip. She was fabulous at sending update photos of their activities. They were truly safe with her and they showed it upon my return. Tilly knew it was time to go home and made her way over giving Jenn a hug and kiss goodbye, her way of saying thank you and I love you! Impeccable care and love given during my time away.

I couldn't be happier with the care my dog receives whenever he is in Peter’s care. Peter is incredibly responsive - always quick to answer messages and provide updates. He is dependable and I never have had to worry about my dog being in good hands. What impressed me most was the genuine care and attention Peter shows my senior dog.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Surprise

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Surprise on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 2,449 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Surprise. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

96% of Surprise sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Surprise landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Surprise 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 Surprise.

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 Surprise 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.
