“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.”
“Cameron and Tyson are fantastic and took such good care of my rambunctious catahoula while we were on vacation. I hope to use them for future overnight/ boarding for both my fur babies ☺️. Not only did Jackson have a great time, they managed his care instructions to a T and I had zero stress about his stay for the entire time we were gone.”
“Korrina cared for my two dogs for several days this past week. She took very good care of my dogs and was able to administer the medicine one of my dogs needed. She has a safe and comfortable environment for dogs. I highly recommend Korrina.”
“Julie was such a fantastic sitter for our two medium sized dogs. She provided daily’s updates and pictures, and was very responsive in all comms. She gave a detailed description of how the dogs did during the stay and was overall a complete joy to work with. She also was able to get us in on an extremely last minute request. Thank you Julie!!”
“I highly recommend Shiela! My dog is always happy to be with her. She sends pictures frequently so that we know that our dog is doing well. She follows all directions given regarding giving meds and general care.”
“This was our second time leaving the puppies with Sylvie. She always takes great care, and we love seeing the video updates of the dogs playing, eating, and having a good time.”
“We are passing thru and fortunately found Gina to take care of our fur babies. If we lived here Gina would be our go to sitter!!! Both pups were happy and healthy when we picked them up and it was clear they were loved by Gina and family 💝”
“Darlene watched our little Sophie for 5 days, she sent pictures and communicated fast and friendly. Her environment is safe and dog friendly. She treated Sophie as part of her family. She took excellent care of our 12yr old pup, and I highly recommend her!”
“Loren was fantastic! She was very accommodating and patient, and wrote beautiful check-ins to help us feel comfortable while away from our pups! One of our pooches was not the best-behaved and Loren was very calm and reassuring.”
“Jodi is an excellent pet sitter who gave my little Oso (pomeranian) lots of love and care. She was very attentive and integrated him into her family immediately. She gave me daily updates and sent pictures! I really appreciate the peace of mind she offered while my baby was away from him family 🥰 Thank you Jodi!”
“Gail was absolutely wonderful with my puppy. He is a very high energy Aussie but he came home so exhausted from a wonderful time with her. he got so much outdoor and play time which was perfect for him. I highly recommend Gail!!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for years and currently have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can actually trust with your pet. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, keeping up with routines, and giving dogs attention without overwhelming them. I’m pretty detail-oriented, so if your dog has a specific schedule, quirks, commands, favorite toys, or things they shouldn’t get into, I’ll follow what you normally do rather than changing their routine. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away. I work a regular weekday schedule, but I’m available before and after work, and I have more flexibility on weekends. I’m good about sticking to feeding, walking, medication, and bathroom schedules, so if your dog has a routine, I’ll follow it as closely as possible. I pay close attention to instructions, routines, and anything I should watch for with your dog. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, food, and medications are handled carefully, and I’ll keep you updated while you’re away. I want your dog to feel comfortable without changing what they’re already used to.
“She was absolutely amazing! She took excellent care of Simba and made me feel comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. She was caring, attentive, and very responsible. I truly appreciate the love and attention she gave him. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets. I would definitely book with her again! 🐾❤️”
“Kristie & Rick are wonderful! They cared for our sweet Maxine and Pedro like they were their own. Since they were puppies, this was their first sleepover experience, but they did great! Kristie & Rick ensured they followed a routine and clearly gave both dogs a lot of love. Will definitely request them again!”
“Kathy was great with my elderly chihuahua. I felt very comfortable leaving her for the night. Her home is very clean and dog friendly. My favorite part were the pictures and videos I received while I was away. Very reassuring.”
“Kathy is a wonderful care person for my dog. He was cared for in the same loving way he is at home. Photos every day showed him being himself. I can highly recommend Katherine for your "Fur Baby" when you are away.”

Jessica did a wonderful job taking care of Kona. Jessica’s kids really enjoyed playing with Kona and Kona enjoyed playing with them. Jessica walked her daily as we requested. would recommend Jessica as a dog-sitter anytime! Responsible and caring! Thank you Jessica and family for taking such good care of Kona.
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.
My usual Rover sitter has been filling up lately so I was looking for an additional person to use and came across Alicia’s profile. It can sometimes be worrisome when trying out a new sitter, but I immediately felt at ease when meeting her, and she was so easy to work with! They embraced my dog as part of their family while I was away, and it made my heart happy. He was very sad to leave upon pickup, which is always a good sign in my opinion. I would highly recommend Alicia and will be using her in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Vail is $41 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $60 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 502 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 routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Vail can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Vail home-away-from-home, 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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.
