“Jessica was an amazing sitter for our 12 year old lab who needs daily medications and some extra attention. She watched her for 4 days and sent us plenty of updates / pictures. Our pup got all the belly rubs, attention, and affection while we were gone. We had little cell service on our trip and had no worries leaving our senior pup in Jessica's capable hands. Would highly recommend and plan to use Jessica for future sittings when we're back in Tucson.”
“Jessica was GREAT! Her home was welcoming, she was welcoming and from the meet and greet i knew my zaydo was gonna have a great time and be cared for properly. She sent videos and pictures and by the first day he made himself at home which is not usual for him. She kept me updated on all things going on including what they did during the day, How his eating habits were, how he was handling the adjustment and even new things about my doggy i didn’t even know. Her dogs welcomed him with sniffs and lots of playtime. I will definitely be booking again and jessica will always be my #1 recommendation for those needing the help with their fur baby.”
“Taylor was wonderful. She welcomed my pitty with open arms and no breed stigma, and when she (the dog, not Taylor) got an upset stomach just days before our week-long trip, Taylor accepted the unexpected dietary changes with grace and experience. I will not hesitate to book with her again when it becomes necessary.”
“Daniel is awesome! He clearly loves pups and showed that to our service dog Nacho. The photos he sent each day gave us comfort knowing Nacho was in a warm and loving place while we traveled. Will certainly be asking Daniel to look after Nacho again and takes my mind off knowing I have to find other places to take care of Nacho. Thank you Daniel!”
“Carina was wonderful! We’ve never left our dog anywhere before so we weren’t sure what to expect, and she took very good care of him. He got lots of attention and she was very accommodating with his desire to be around her all the time. I got some photos and updates while we were done which was wonderful. I’d definitely ask here to watch our dog again!”
“Maisie’s 2nd stay with Ron was great! She was happy and comfortable when I dropped her off and when I picked her up. Ron sends great pictures and movies. We are so happy to have Ron, Lily and Canoli.”
“Water and John were so pleasant to meet and allowed us to see where Rosie could roam and play with other dogs. Many pictures and status of how she was doing were sent. We appreciated tbe constant communication. Can't wait to have Rosie come back”
“Sylvie is so incredible with her dogs including Sherman. Sherman is just six months old so she gave him special attention to help him socialize. I continually showed her videos to my golfing buddies because they asked what I was chuckling about. I’ve had dog sitters before but none compare to Sylvie. She is a gem🐶”
“Shawna and Ethan are a blessing! Forget a pet hotel and where it’s cold, lonely and your fur babies aren’t loved. With Shawna and Ethan it’s like your pets are on vacation too. So much space for them to run and lots of loving care and pictures and updates! Can’t say enough!”
“Cameron and Tyson were excellent sitters for my small dog. They treated her like family and Jasmine was happy and content at their home. They took her daily on her walk and sent me pictures and updates daily. I highly recommend these two and will definitely use them in the future!!”
“Korrina was the sweetest! She asked all the questions and sent me daily updates. My puppy came back looking so happy and rested. Thank you so much for taking care of my Daisy. I will definitely be rebooking 🤗”
“Sheila is amazing! My dogs loved their stay. From the moment they arrived they were very comfortable, and they usually take some time to warm up to people. I would not take them anywhere else!”
“Kat was great and very patient when we didn’t know how to use this app, and our flight was delayed overnight, and I’m sure we made the whole deal annoying for her, but she was kind and patient and very responsive to communication. And Paris really seemed to enjoy being there and playing with her dogs. Thank you, Kat!!”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I found myself being the one to watch the dogs the most. I have done many overnight sittings. I've done day time dog sitting for my sister as well. Making sure to follow my better judgment and any instructions left behind for me. I watch my sister's dogs almost every week for two days, originally it was three days but her schedule changed. I'm mostly available any day of the week. Well I make sure to try and keep the space as clean as possible. If I am given instructions for pet care like how to feed, when they should have treats, etc I make sure to follow. I am very communicative when it come to pets, I will send pictures and ask questions if I need to. I try to keep everything as the same as I arrived.
“David took great care of Birdie! She was very happy and healthy when I picked her up. I would highly recommend David and hopefully he will be available in the future when I need someone to watch her!”
“We’ve booked Miriam before and were so happy to have her watch our pup again—this time for three weeks. She took incredible care of her and sent photos and videos every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our pup clearly had a wonderful time with Miriam and her family. She loved playing with Miriam’s golden retriever, and it was especially sweet to see how much our pup adored Miriam’s daughter. It truly felt like our pup was part of their family while she was there. We’re so grateful for the care and attention they gave her and would happily book with Miriam again. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“Amazing dog family. I had to go out of town for a few days and didn't have any problem at all with fear or apprehension because I knew my animal is cared for. Extra playtime and walking because my dog is super energetic and needs the exercise. Thanks for the great job.”

This was Charlie’s first stay with Lorena and her family. I am so excited to have found her! I got daily updates and pictures of a Charlie. I think I was missing him more than he missed me by all the fun and love he was getting. Will def be reaching out to her again!
Joann is the only reason we can go on our annual vacation that is usually scheduled during monsoon. Our sweet Luna has severe anxiety during thunderstorms. Joann is so great and kind, treating Luna like we do during storms. We are able to relax and enjoy our time away because we know Joann is going to take great care of Luna. She is absolutely the best!!
We had to find a sitter on very short notice, and Devin & Hailey were absolute lifesavers. They responded quickly, were flexible with our timing, and made the entire process stress-free from the start. Our dog Boomer settled in comfortably right away, which says a lot. We really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and the clear care and attention given throughout the stay. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our dog was in such great hands. We’re incredibly grateful for the last-minute accommodation and would not hesitate to book again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone dependable, responsive, and genuinely caring.
Lori was wonderful!! She took excellent care of Gwen, sent updates with pictures and made us feel comfortable right from the initial meet and greet! It was so nice to find someone who we can trust to take care of our girl while we are out of town. We will absolutely leave Gwen with Lori again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Vail on Rover is $41.07 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 493 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Vail. 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.
94% of Vail 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 Vail 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 Vail 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 Vail.
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 Vail 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.
