Steph and her family took great care of my girl treating her like a queen. Mia very much looks forward to seeing them all again. I highly recommend Steph for anyone as she is professional, very communicative (lots of pictures) and easy to deal with. I will definitely be using her services in the future.

I highly recommend Kathleen and Steve if you need someone to take care of your furr-baby. My puppy had a great time and I'm sure he loved his walk to the Starbucks!

Celynda and her partner did a fabulous job taking care of Daisy. Daisy was walked, taken to dog park. She even went above and beyond by giving Daisy a bath. My absence was extended and Celynda bought extra dog food and vitamins for Daisy! No dog sitter I know has ever done that Kudos to you. Daisy played with the cat toys and Celynda bought a larger toy just like the cat toy, stuffed Lam Chop which Daisy loved. She got to bring it home I highly recommend Cylenda for dog boarding and sitting. Your dog will be better off than when you dropped it off.

This was our pups’ first time boarding with Myron and Pat. The dogs are rescues from a bad situation and are wary of new people, but warmed up quickly to them. Myron and Pat made the dogs feel very comfortable and at home. It was a great experience!

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!

First time I ever used Rover and first time I ever left my dog with a stranger. Rae was extremely kind and loving to my dog. She sent me text messages and pictures that I very much appreciated. My doggie was very well taken care of from Rae. She kept her safe and followed the instructions I reviewed with her. I would recommend Rae and will use her 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.

Melodie was exactly what we were needed for our boy Rocket when we went out of town for the holiday. She did a great job at communicating, sending messages and photos throughout our trip to let us know he had settled in and was having fun! Rocket was happy and exhausted when we picked him up! We will definitely call Melodie the next time we head out of town!

Claudia is a true dog whisperer! Our elderly, picky, skittish, timid chiweenie ate without issue and even began playing with the other dogs there. Claudia sent us regular updates and photos. And Paris, who is afraid of everyone, warmed up to her right away. We have already scheduled our next visits!!

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. Jenn is gold!

FAQs for Boarding - Surprise

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Surprise on Rover is $38.85 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 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 August 2026, there are 2,391 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.

95% 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.
