“Although we have used and been happy with Rover pet sitters in the past, we feel in finding Adriana we hit the Jackpot!!!! From our initial contact with her we were impressed with her lovely and caring demeanor. She related so naturally and comfortably with us and our little Brynnley, demonstrating her kindness and obvious love of these little fur-babies. Our plan always when we need to leave Brynn in someone's care is to provide a safe and positive experience for him and we certainly were assured of this through the many messages, pictures and videos Adriana sent several times a day! And I would be remiss if I didn't mention her beautiful home and yard...what a fun place for puppers to run and play...and comfy couches to cuddle. Great experience...thank you Adriana & Kayla”
“Veronica and her family always do a great job watching our boys! It's conforming to know that we can rely on them and don't have to worry about how's our dogs are doing. Thanks again!”
“We always love to have Ash watch Millie! She is amazing with her and I feel so comfortable knowing Millie is with her! She always takes such great care of Millie!”
“They accepted a last minute 2 night booking for my golden and she was well cared for. They respond to messages very promptly and kept us updated with photos. They have an awesome back yard too!”
“I have engaged John and Donna's service a couple of times and they are just terrific sitters. They took care of our Bruno as if he was their own. Our dog has become comfortable staying in their house and I wouldn't hesitate to bring him back again, when the need arises, as I know he will always be loved there.”
“David was so great to Rudy & Leahy. He communicated well, took phenomenal care of them (multiple walks daily) and gave them all the puppy love! I will request David to watch them every time moving forward. He is a great guy who cares about your animals like they are his own.”
“Jerron had incredible communication and responded very quickly. He agreed to watch our dog on short notice and kept us in the loop during his stay. Our dog is very energetic which he didn’t mind and took him on several mile walks.”
“Tracy is a very kind loving dog sitter. I have already booked her for my next trip. I finally found a dog sitter who I can trust with my sweet girl. Thank you Tracy for snuggling with her. I appreciate you.”
“I’m glad that Alex makes the meet and greet part of her process, because I was able to meet her on Thursday and drop my dog off on Friday feeling very comfortable that my dog was in good hands. Alex is home is very neat and clean. If you didn’t see the dogs, you wouldn’t know she was hosting multiple dogs by the cleanliness of her home. Alex puts the needs of the dogs first and makes sure to introduce them one by one and make sure any dogs that she’s hosting fits within the pack. I never had to worry about how my dog was doing because Alex sent me pictures throughout the day each day that my pup was with her. I’m glad to know I have a trusted pet sitter for when I need to board in the future.”
“My Happy The Corgi ❤️🐶🐾 enjoyed his 1 week of stay. Julia was nice and sweet. She took good care of my Happy. Great communication, I received daily updates, photos, and videos. My HAPPY was definitely HAPPY with the pet care and stay. Thank you Julia! 😊”
“This is the second time we boarded our dogs with Clara. She was great as usual and went above and beyond to make sure they were doing well. ! Thanks again Clara!”
“Alani and her family took great care of my dogs. My oldest dog is blind and has diabetes. He needs insulin every 12 hours; nonetheless, Alani handled him very well. Both of my dogs typically come home after being boarded at a dog hotel with some weight loss, but with Alani that was NOT the case. 10/10 dog sitter.”
“Teresa was great! She communicated well and sent us updates on our pups, which we love! Her home was clean and tons of space for our pups. We will absolutely be rebooking with Teresa in the future. :)”
“Brandon is awesome. This was the first time I boarded my dog and Brandon knew I was very nervous, he made me feel comfortable and as me Canyon was doing fine by sending me daily pictures of her. I would use him agzin.”
“If you are looking for someone who can take care of your pups for couple of days, I definitely recommend Rachel. She has been very accommodating and she has definitely gained our dog’s trust.”
About: Hi! I’m Patience ! With over 10 years of experience caring for pets—ranging from energetic puppies to senior cats—I treat every pet like part of my family. As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets need tailored care to feel comfortable while you're away. A typical day in my care includes a morning walk, plenty of play sessions with chew toys, and quiet cuddles in the evening. For seniors, I focus on gentle, short walks and ensuring they have soft bedding and a calm environment. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will have company throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, allowing for frequent potty breaks every 2–3 hours and mid-day play sessions. I usually take a longer walk in the late afternoon to help them burn off energy before dinner. Your pet's safety is my top priority. I require a meet-and-greet to ensure we are a perfect match. I only communicate through Rover for your security and mine. I am highly observant of behavior, ensuring pets are never put in stressful situations and that their environment is secure.
“We had a great experience with Christal and her family. Our dog was well taken care of, friends with their dog and lots of pictures were sent to us. 10/10 will use again”
“Susan and Peter were amazing! Coco was so comfortable and well taken care of at their house. They provided frequent updates and photos, which we really appreciated. We are planning to have Coco visit Susan and Peter again in a few weeks. I would highly recommend them to any pet owner looking for a trusted sitter.”
“Angela and her family really care about the service they provide for your pets, they treat them like their own. We love all the updates with pics that Angela sends. I would highly recommend Angela.”

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!
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!
Susan and Peter were so caring and communicative. Coco was so comfortable and happy in their home. My husband and I were out of the country for 9 days and were nervous to be so far away for so long, but we were continually reassured that Coco was safe. Susan and Peter were also very thoughtful in sending us daily updates with photos and videos (and they would kindly avoid sending these in the middle of the night due to the 8-hour time difference). They are amazing and we would 100% recommend them to any pet owner!
Absolutely amazing experience! My dog was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for during the stay. I received frequent updates, photos, and thoughtful communication throughout the booking. I truly appreciated the care and attention given to my dog and would not hesitate to book again. Highly recommend!!!!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Tempe on Rover is $39.96 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 3,466 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Tempe. About 92% of Tempe sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
