Ashley and Snoopy are absolutely amazing hosts! Pookie had a fantastic stay and came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Ashley treated Pookie like one of her own and kept us comfortable knowing our furry family member was in such loving hands. Snoopy was a wonderful companion, and it was clear Pookie had a great time. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy sitter for their four-legged kid. We wouldn't hesitate to book with her again!
Abigayle was wonderful! Woody stayed with her for over three weeks, and she took great care of him. She kept us updated with frequent photos, communicated promptly through the app, and made the entire experience stress-free. She was also very accommodating when our schedule changed, which we really appreciated. We would definitely trust her with Woody again and highly recommend her!
Roxanne was great and I will be rebooking for future sits. She was very flexible with the last minute request to watch Posie and even for a meet a greet prior. I knew Posie was in good hands from the update after drop off and I appreciate how she took the time to send me daily updates every day without fail. It really alleviated any worries I had of how Posie was doing. I could tell Posie had a blast with her as well and appreciated all the ball time she got. Thanks again and till next time!
Brooke was great to work with. We did a very nice meet and greet ahead of time. I brought my girl to her place and we all got a chance to get to know each other. She answered any of my questions. Then the actual stay was very easy. Drop off was simple. I lingered of course and she let me. I got photos of my girl throughout her stay. It was great to get updates. Pickup was also super easy, Brooke was very accommodating. I'll be booking with Brooke again!
Elena took amazing care of Teddy, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was kind, professional, and treated him like her own dog from the moment I dropped him off. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and when I picked him up, Teddy was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious that she truly loves animals and goes above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and safe. I highly recommend Elena to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter, and I will definitely be booking with her again!
Mac had a great stay with her and I’m super grateful for how flexible and accommodating she was with my crazy schedule. I ended up having to extend his stay twice from the original booking, and both times she didn’t hesitate at all to keep him longer, which helped me out so much and took a ton of stress off my plate. She sent me updates while I was away, and it was obvious she genuinely cared about him and loved having him there. I felt really comfortable knowing he was with her and being taken care of the whole time. I’d definitely trust her with Mac again and would absolutely book with her in the future. 😊😊😊
Krystal was great! I really appreciated her taking on my last minute dog boarding request. It was a huge life saver and allowed me to go see my family out of state for a few days. She has great communication and kept me updated with pictures of how my dog Dutchie was doing. I knew he was in great care!! 🙂🐶
Andrea was so helpful and sweet with our boy! She kept us updated throughout the weekend with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. She also made sure everything was clean and tidy when we got home. We truly appreciate all the love and care she gave him. We highly recommend Andrea to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter ❤️
Rachael and Tim were amazing with our Corgi. From the moment we had our first visit with them, we knew it would be a good fit. Rachael did a fantastic job of keeping us updated throughout our dog’s stay with her. She is one of the best I’ve seen and always communicates. We will def use them again!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Tempe
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Tempe on Rover is $40 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 3,407 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Tempe. 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 Tempe 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 Tempe 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 Tempe 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 Tempe.
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 Tempe 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.
