I truly appreciated the care and attention given to my dog and would not hesitate to book again. Highly recommend!!!!!!”
“We got so many updates & pictures while away & our dog was so happy staying with Madison. We felt way more comfortable leaving him with her than boarding at a kennel. We would definitely use Madison in the future :)”
“Marina is awesome! You can tell that she loves dogs and understands their unique temperaments. She sent many pictures and videos during my pup’s stay, which were always a treat. Also, she has the most beautiful, big, grassy backyard for the dogs to play in. My pup came home happy and tired, which is always a good sign. Thank you, Marina!”
“Alex is awesome! Our family had to go out of town for couple days and first time to be away without my dog. I was glad to found Alex to take care my dog Mochi. Alex would always send updates on what Mochi is doing, so I would not worry and felt at ease. Thank You Alex!”
“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.”
“Ana and her boyfriend were absolutely fabulous!!! They took care of my dog like their own pet and I could tell at the time of pickup my dog had become really fond of them. All instructions for food etc were well followed. Ana was amazing at sending me pictures everyday which eased my anxiety. I would definitely use their services again and highly recommend them to all pet owners looking for an amazing 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.”
“I’m a first time user of the app and having some stranger care for my babies was nerve wrecking not to mention that one of my dogs was having skin allergies. I’m extremely thankful for finding Jackie while visiting Arizona for a conference. Jackie eased my worries and my two dogs felt at home with her and her sweet dog Bella. Jackie provided me daily updates with photos and texts which eased my anxieties. She also provided my dog with her medication and supplements to her food. They stayed with her for four days and when I picked them up, I felt a little jealous because they didn’t seem to want to leave. I look forward for coming back and leaving my babies under her care again. Thank you...thank yo,! thank you, Give Jackie a shot you won’t regret it, unless your dog decides not to leave. Jackie as her new owner??????”
“My first impression of Julia was that she was very warm, kind and loving person and my dogs fell right in with her dogs. I received many picture updates during the stay with comments on how they were doing. This was my first stay with them definitely not the ladt.”
“Brandon is amazing! Can’t recommend more. Great communication and kept me updated with so many photos. My dog was so peaceful and relaxed on the way home, you could tell he was well cared for and felt right at home.”

It was our first time leaving her so we were so stressed but once i got updates of her she was very happy with her, playing, eating sleeping on bed with her, overall, she was so happy. When we got there to get her she was not even ready to come back she was missing her!I Thats shows she was treated very well! highly recommend!!”

“Ash took great care of my boys. Oliver needed medication and special attention during his stay since he was recovering from a minor procedure. Ash willingly took them on. My boys came back happy and healthy.”
“Rachel took great care of my Allie while I was traveling over the holidays. It was Allie's first time staying away from home so she was a bit nervous at first. Rachel sent me updates & pictures to let me know how Allie was doing each day. Allie got lots of attention and was very happy there. I will be calling Rachel to watch Allie again on my next trip.”

I am so grateful to Christal and her family for opening their home and taking such wonderful care of my two girls for 10 days. From the very beginning, Christal made me feel completely comfortable and reassured. She sent me daily pictures and updates, which meant so much to me and gave me peace of mind knowing they were happy, safe, and being well taken care of. Her entire family welcomed my girls and cared for them as if they were their own. It was clear that they were not just being watched, they were genuinely loved, spoiled, and treated like part of the family. Christal was also incredibly understanding and flexible when we had to pick them up later than our scheduled time because of unexpected luggage delays. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Knowing my girls were in such loving hands allowed me to enjoy my time away without worrying about them. I am beyond thankful to Christal and her family for loving and caring for my girls so well. I would absolutely trust them with my girls again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets with the same love and care they would give their own. ❤️
Susan and Peter gave my pup Scout the best vacation while I was on vacation. They were so easy to communicate with. I loved seeing how happy Scout was in the pictures and videos the videos they sent I while I was away. They absolutely love having fur guests and we’ll definitely be using them again in the future.
We had a wonderful experience with Rachel and Tim! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and we really appreciated the frequent pictures and videos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pup was happy, safe, and well cared for. We would definitely recommend them and will gladly use them again!
Really sweet family and just overall perfect experience for both me and my pup. Before boarding: Alani and her families invited us to do meet-and-greet, asked questions about my dog’s usual routines, sent information about other two dogs mine will be staying with ahead of time. During the stay: Alani sent photos and updates daily. Informed me if anything was unusual. They took her to a dog park when the weather got cooler. Pick-up: They were very accommodating while my flight schedules changed. Alani gave me an update on how my dog stay went, anything she noticed, etc. My dog seemed well-played and happy. I felt like they understood how stressful and nervous it can be to part with a pup for extended period, and did everything to help. Alani and her family will always be my first choice to sit my pup going forward. Thank you.
Brandy was very communicative throughout our dog’s stay and kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. We could tell our pup had so much fun, was well cared for, and received lots of love and attention. We would definitely trust Brandy to watch our 🐶 again
Jazmin was absolutely fantastic! I had a longer trip and she was great with having my kitty in her home and him constantly following her around. She gave regular updates with pictures. She really loves kitties and took amazing care of my kitty. Highly recommend and will be hiring her again in the future!
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.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Tempe on Rover is $39.96 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 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 3,450 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.
