“Our pups enjoyed their stay with Jackie. She sent daily pics so appreciated seeing how they were doing. The other pups she was taking care of were sweet and it was a calm setting. Thanks Jackie and we are happy to recommend you and will rebook soon!”
“Lorinda was great! She sent me lots of updates and pictures of how my dog was doing and I could tell she had a lot of fun. Would definitely use Lorinda again :)”

“This was our first time using Rover and Gabriela was amazing! Reece didn’t want to leave when I came to pick him up. Very responsive. Nice clean home. Definitely recommend her to all my friends”


“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.”


“Julia was so awesome! I have a dog with anxiety who can only be around certain small dogs and she was totally fine with Julia! The dogs came home happy, tired and missing their new dog friends that they made with staying over. Julia is chill and you can tell she truly loves animals and treated our pups like her own. I highly recommend her because she was courteous, professional and very kind.”


About: I have grown up with pets my entire life and have experience caring for dogs through every stage of their lives, from puppies to seniors. Over the years, I've learned how to provide attentive, loving care while understanding that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have also dog sat for other families. I like to ensure that each pet felt safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Whether it's playtime, walks, maintaining routines, or giving extra patience and attention to senior dogs, I always strive to treat every pet like they are part of my own family. I have a flexible schedule/work from home, which allows me to give pets frequent attention, potty breaks, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I am available 7 days a week and I make my own schedule so I am pretty flexible with the hours as well. Pet care fits comfortably into my routine, and I enjoy creating a calm, consistent environment for every pet I watch. I live in a house with a gated backyard where dogs can safely play and get exercise under supervision. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and pay close attention to each pet’s routine, comfort level, and needs. I like to focus on creating a safe, loving, and low-stress experience with plenty of attention, playtime, and updates for owners.

“Brandon & his family did a great job with our dog Buck. It was a last minute situation and he graciously took him in. Brandon has a great way with dogs. He had a big yard that is fenced in and a doggie door which let Buck go in and out, smell things and run. He was also taken on walks and given lots of attention. I highly recommend Brandon as a dog sitter. We also received pictures twice a day.”

“Im always anxious about leaving japa with anyone but I was so at ease with him staying with Nicole and Rose! They took amazing care of him and treated him like he was their own. He had a blast and I loved the updates of him playing and lounging around. I highly recommend!!”


“Darbi and Nate were great! We had a few schedule changes post-booking and they were so flexible and accommodating. They took Finny in and just loved on him so much! Sent updates and pictures which was great! In fact…we’re convinced that the poor dog is mad we brought him home 😂 Highly recommend!!”

“Thida was great with Ralphie! She sent me so many pictures and videos during his stay and communicated with me about how he was doing. I felt much better about leaving him after seeing how happy he was with her, she's amazing!”

“Ezra and Reina are fabulous. I went on a 3 week trip to Europe and was quite anxious to leave Aurora because she has a few issues. Their description of their home and way they take care of the dogs sounded like I would take care of my dog. I explained what I wanted including 3 meds and specific food requirements. They were not fazed at all with my requests; including walking Aurora each morning. I received photos and updates regularly throughout my 3 weeks away. They are now go to folks when I need to leave Aurora. Thank you.”

“We had the best experience with Lana! She treated our dog like her own and welcomed her with open arms. I loved the photos Lana sent of Leila sleeping on the couch and even enjoying some knitting! She looked so happy and relaxed, I felt great knowing she was having the best time. Our dog is a rescue and Lana took extra time & care to ensure she was comfortable. She has a wonderful fenced in backyard which we prefer for overnight stays. Lana is an amazing pet sitter & we look forward to using her again in the near future!”

“My Pip always has such a great time with Adriana! She sends me the sweetest videos and updates every day and it looks like he has the best time with the other pups she cares for :) I’m sure Pip can’t wait to stay with her 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!”

“Sara is the best sitter! I've had Mack stay with her several times now and she's always my first stop when looking to see who's available. She and her family are very warm and welcoming and do a great job with my pup.”

“Barbara, cared for my small dog Chloe, while I was out of town. She sent photos and kept me in the loop how Chloe was doing, this was great! This was the first time I've traveled and didn't take Chloe. With Barbara I didn't have to worry about Chloe at all. I will book with Barbara again. Thank you.”

“This was Nova’s second stay with Angela & the family and I’m so grateful to have found them! She was showered with lots of love from the moment we arrived, and I loved seeing pictures throughout my trip. She always looked very content and well taken care of, it’s so much easier to be away knowing she’s in good hands! I will definitely reach out of town the next time I’m away :)”

“Zach and Maddie were the absolute best! From the moment I met them I knew my dog was in great hands. They are genuine dog lovers. I got lots of updates while I was away. It was such a relief being gone for a week and not having to worry about my dog. They even took him on a picnic! 10/10. Highly recommend.”

I was nervous about long-term boarding for my 2 dogs. Huaqing immediately put me at ease and treated my dogs like family. She communicated well, sending us updates with pictures while we were on our trip. She is so kind and was great with our dogs--she provided not only care for our dogs, but peace of mind for us while we were traveling. I highly recommend her services!

This was Maverick’s first visit with Pamela and he did well. She was so kind and flexible when I needed to add a couple days to his stay. Maverick is older so the fit is very important to me. Pamela was patient with him until he calmed down which I really appreciate. Would definitely recommend and use her again.

Ashley was exceptional to work with and showed genuine care for our boy while we were away. She kept in touch every day with photos and updates, and anytime she had a question, she reached out to make sure he stayed as comfortable and well‑cared‑for as possible. When our flight home was delayed over an hour, she remained patient, understanding, and communicative throughout the return. We would recommend her to anyone needing reliable pet care—she truly gives you peace of mind while you’re gone. I would absolutely book with her again, and I hope her schedule is open next time we need her.

Susan and Peter were absolutely wonderful with our Golden Retriever, Elliott. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt confident that he was in caring and capable hands. Throughout his stay, they regularly sent us photos and updates, which gave us great peace of mind. The pictures clearly showed how comfortable, happy, and well cared for Elliott was. It was obvious that they genuinely love animals and treat them like members of their own family. We truly appreciated their excellent communication, attention to detail, and the genuine care they showed Elliott. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Susan and Peter again, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate pet sitters.
Rachael is a superstar and a true professional. Her place is set up perfectly for pups. They get a lot of attention and easy access to the outside. Larry had a bonus and made some friends while he was there…I was gone for a week and received a happy video every day. Highly recommended Rachael

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!

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.
