“Leanna and Berlin were great! Wrigley is 14yo, blind and partially deaf, which gives him a lot of anxiety. We picked him up and he was so calm! He has eating issues and they went above and beyond to find food that he would eat, even making him special mixes. They were very communicative. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
“Kathleen and Steven were a delight to work with. I had a crazy schedule and they were so helpful with changes I had to make. Charlie loved staying with them and Darla, their dog. I plan to use them again next month. I highly recommend them.”
“Myron and his wife Pat did a great job caring for Skye’s stay. I received several pictures of her and many updates while I was away. This was Skye’s first time away from home and she did just fine. She appeared to have made good friends with Myron and fit in just fine ?”
“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.”
“Stephanie was awesome. Super easy to work with and you can really tell she loves your pet as if it were her own. Queso had a great time and can’t wait to go back.”
“Francesa made us feel very comfortable about boarding our pup Gus with her. She’s very responsive and was very caring and sent us photos and updates. We’d definitely work with her again.”
“Rae was great with Olive! She sent picture updates and I know she got her walks in! Rae made Olive feel right at home with snuggles and keeping to her schedule. She’s a dog lover and I had no worries! Thanks Rae! Olive will be back!”
“We are so grateful I found Michele to petsit our golden doodle Chella on Rover. She was so nice and caring with our dog. Michelle had no problem with my special requests to feed Chella her Raw frozen beef formula which is a bit more work than kibble. And to be understanding about her anxiety and over excitability. She quickly came up with ideas of how to accommodate our dog’s particular needs. So helpful! Our dog loved Michele’s big backyard, especially drinking from the creek water feature! We had to cancel and reschedule our trip start date due to bad weather, then extend few days and she was able to accommodate our schedule changes. I would highly recommend Michele due to her flexibility, kindness and willingness to take our large dog despite normally only petsitting small dogs. Her and her family gave Chella much love this past week. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Absolutely wonderful sitter. He replied quickly to both my boyfriend and my messages, allowed us to do a home visit, and sent regular photos and updates for our dog's 5-day stay! He took him to the park, regular walks, was extremely responsive, and even taught Scout some new tricks! Their home and dog, Shelby were amazing and I can not recommend Mitch and his wife enough!”
“A great family who our girls immediately opened up to. Nick was extremely responsive, flexible on times and provided picture updates. My girls loved their kids and their little pup Nova! I will definitely book them again for future trips!”
“Sierra was very flexible and accommodating to my young puppy! She sent me daily updates on how he was doing with pictures, I would 100% be confident in housing him there again, or even for a longer stay. She’s awesome!”
“Michelle and her sons truly make you feel like they care for your dog and love them as their own. They send fun photos and thoughtful updates frequently and communicate concerns appropriately. We are so grateful for them taking such great care of our Caamp!”
“Kimberly was amazing! She welcomed us into her home at drop off and was so patient with this anxious pet mama. Marty had a great time and we got lots of pictures and updates. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Sonia was amazing with my little chihuahua! She kept me updated many times throughout the day with photos and videos and my dog looked so happy. You can tell Sonia really loves dogs and will care for them like they are her own. I highly recommend Sonia!”
“Sherrie was flexible, i had to make a couple of changes to our reservation and she accommodated. Izzy seemed to loved it there. I received updated photos, videos, and messages throughout my vacation, which put us at ease. Large yard, other dogs, and she let Izzy in the house, on the couch like she was her own dog. Thank you Sherrie!”
About: Hi I’m Kylea! I’m a stay-at-home, homeschooling mom and lifelong animal lover. Animals truly bring me so much joy and happiness and I would love to care for yours! While in my care, your pet(s) will receive tons of love, attention, playtime, and snuggles. Daily updates will be given as well as pictures! I have a lifelong experience caring for dogs, cats, and other small pets, and I will follow any special feeding schedules. I can administer medications if needed, and will accommodate unique care instructions. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I can care for any age whether it’s a puppy and still potty training or a senior dog that needs assistance and gentle care. I know how important our pets are—they’re family. That’s why I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pet(s) is receiving the best care possible. I can’t wait to meet you and your amazing pet(s) and give them a fun, loving home away from home! 🐾💕 I will always be home to love and care for your pet(s). Your pet(s) is my top priority and your request is highly respected for the care of your sweet pet(s). During the AZ summer, dogs will remain inside for the majority of the day but will still get tons of playtime because in our home- we play ball in the house! :) Your pet(s) will have frequent potty breaks and tons of playtime outside when the weather isn’t extremely hot to prevent your sweet pet(s) from being overheated. I have a double fenced yard and tons of space for your pet to play. Artificial grass, a doggie pool for those dogs who love to play in water, tons of toys, an outdoor cooler with pump, & misters and fans (though dogs will never be left outside for a long period of time). As for cats- I will keep them separated in their own, quiet space with their own litter box, food, water, and accessories until they seem to feel comfortable. Then I will introduce the cat(s) slowly to the other cats and the to home.

Leanna & Berlin B. took an excellent care of my dog, Trixie, during my vacation. I was given daily reports and I could see that Trixie was looking happier as time went by. I strongly recomment Leanna & Berlin if you need to have someone take care of your loved one while you are away.
Our dog had an absolutely wonderful stay with Kylea and her family! She was so well loved and taken care of as though she was their own. Kylea sent frequent updates and communicated quickly and was always available. I highly recommend her for pet care and will definitely be rebooking with her if we need pet care in the future! 🙂
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!
Kim is amazing! My dog isn't the easiest dog to deal with and is was her first time being away from me. But she handled her very well and sent me pics and videos to let me know how she was doing, which made me feel less stressed. I have highly recommend using her! Thanks, Kim!
Susan was the absolute best for our pups! Our female can take a while to warm up to strangers and Susan understood and then she loved Susan by the end of the weekend. She communicated and updated us often over the weekend which we love. Would absolutely book her again.
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!
Rachel has been amazing! We’ve utilized her multiple times. She is extremely accommodating and flexible, even accepting with only a days notice! I love that my boy is in a home environment, roaming freely with outdoor access and getting so much care and attention! Rachel sends the most adorable updates with photos and videos that completely light up my day! I am so glad we found her🐾♥️

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 July 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 July 2026, there are 2,402 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.
