“Michelle is an excellent sitter. She kept our little Yorkie for 10 days and was obviously provided first-class care! I also appreciated the daily updates and pictures. I highly recommend Michelle and will use her again in the future!”

“Kelly is so caring and took amazing care of our Toby. She was super responsive and flexible with us as we had a family emergency at the drop-off time and horrible traffic at the return time. I would strongly recommend Kelly to other dog owners that want a loving, caring home for boarding or daycare.”

“Melodie took excellent care of our Doberman while on a weeks vacation. Gave updates and photos' Communication was excellent also. We definitely will use Melodie again.”

“We are so happy to find someone like Claudia. There were special services needed for our Greta. Claudia was very helpful and made sure that Greta received two insulin injections daily. We are so thankful for all she did for our Greta.”

“When we picked up Sadie, she was running around with the other dogs looking very happy. Sherrie is definitely our new dog sitter. Thank you for taking good care of my puppy.”

“From the moment we dropped off Scorch, Chuck was friendly and welcoming. Communication throughout was excellent, with regular updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. We felt confident leaving Scorch in such a clean and secure environment. Scorch came home happy and well taken care of, which really says it all. We'll definitely be using Chuck's services again!”

“Leanna was amazing with my little boy Achilles. Daily updates and pictures even a video to show how happy he was. I would definitely recommend Leanna for home boarding. Thank you, Merleana H.”

“Dina is a great conversationalist and big hearted woman. She is kind and sweet and it’s obvious she loves animals. Her two little pups are absolutely adorable and helped my pup blossom. I was hoping for a boarding care where my dog could open up more to other dogs, and this stay didn’t disappoint. I look forward to bringing my dog back to her again.”


“We picked up our guy today after being gone for 8 days. First time leaving him anywhere so we were nervous. Chris and Julia were amazing. They were so nice and made us feel comfortable. They sent us daily updates and we could see he was enjoying himself and getting along with their dog. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands. They’ll definitely be our go to sitters in the future.”


“Lilly was so good with our fur baby!! We met beforehand and Jax just walked right into her home and was immediately comfortable, rolling over for belly rubs. Jax takes a bit to warm up to people so this was very reassuring. She sent us regular updates with pics which was great. Most importantly, when we picked him up he was happy and calm - there have been times where I've picked him up from other places and he was so stressed out it broke my heart - not this time!! I would definitely recommend Lilly to anyone looking for someone to care for their babies!!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an amazing experience with Deanna as our dog boarder! She kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, making us feel at ease while we were away. Communication was top-notch, and her friendly demeanor made everything even better. Our dog, Boise, had a great time playing with her dog and her kids, which we know made his stay extra special. Highly recommend Deanna for anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog boarder!”

“Nick and Veronica were amazing. We left our dog in their care and not even for a minute we were worried about our dog. We kept getting updates and pics throughout the day about his food, activities etc. They showered so much love that he was missing them after coming home. We appreciate Nick and Veronica for giving him safe space and environment and a lovely home with such warmth. I recommend everyone to book them and I would keep rebooking them for our dog. Thank you so much for keeping our Rio like your own.”

“Kimberly was fantastic! Our four month old doodle loved her, her home, and backyard. She was kind and easy to communicate with and sent pictures and videos of our puppy’s fun day. I highly recommend using Kimberly. I know we will definitely use her again.”

“Mandy was outstanding!! Trunks and Nipsey came home so happy and well behaved as if they never left home. Thank you so much for loving my dogs while I was away on vacation. I recommend Mandy 1000% for your dogs.”

“Sonia was the best! I really appreciated the photos and videos, I could see that Tina was happy and wagging her tail 🤣 I loved that Tina got to hang out with Chuy, he’s adorable. Everything was great, I will 100% keep booking with Sonia.”

“Christina was great with Moose. I was so thankful to find someone that cared as much about my dog as much as I did. Christina would send multiple pictures along with updates through out Moose's stay with her!!! 10/10 would recommend!”

“Sean and his family took care of Jasper well and I was glad to receive photo updates of Jasper as well. I would not hesitate to use Sean again for dogboarding. Thank you Sean”

“Jed & Genevieve were Godsends! My dog Taz, was a rescue who had a history of extreme separation anxiety. He's also developed seizures over the last year, the first one being just after coming home from a stay at a boarding facility. I didn't want to have to board him at a facility again but didn't feel comfortable with leaving him at home and just having someone check on him intermittently. Their services were a great option. Because they don't have a pet of their own, they were a great choice for my dog who is wonderful with humans but aggressive toward other animals. They sent me updates and pictures while I was away, and I am so very appreciative of their love and care for Taz!”


“Kylea took absolutely wonderful care of my pup, Paco, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. From start to finish, it was clear how much she genuinely loves the animals she looks after. Paco was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable in her hands the entire time. I would absolutely be using her in the future and cannot recommend her enough.”

Andria & Family did a phenomenal job taking care of two our dogs on a long weekend family trip! From having a meet & greet, from photos and updates. Providing all the reassurance our family needed on their first Rover experience. The dogs came home, loved and excited. Would definitely return in the future. Thank you kindly 🐶🐶

Claudia did an excellent job dog sitting our Maltese for the day. She made sure that our dog was not overwhelmed by the new environment and the other dogs. She was very thorough and her communications were great, sending photos and videos several times during the day. It was clear that she cared very much for all of the dogs and her house and yard were set up perfectly. An excellent experience for our dog.

We picked up our guy today after being gone for 8 days. First time leaving him anywhere so we were nervous. Chris and Julia were amazing. They were so nice and made us feel comfortable. They sent us daily updates and we could see he was enjoying himself and getting along with their dog. We were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands. They’ll definitely be our go to sitters in the future.

Very happy with the care Milo got while we were out of town! Deanna sent pictures and kept me posted on how he was doing which I greatly appreciated. leaving Milo with someone else is always hard but knowing he was in good hands helped. I’d definitely use Deanna again !

Very blessed to have met this family on such a short notice. She was very responsive and sent updates with pictures throughout the entire time. Her communication gave me complete peace of mind, and it was clear that they provided a safe, loving, and welcoming environment. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and reliable care!

Michele was a great and trustworthy sitter for my dog during my time in the area. Very communicative and accommodating to ensure everything is comfortable for your fur baby. I don’t even think my dog missed me when I dropped her off with Michele! 🤗 I would recommend her to anyone needing a reliable sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Waddell on Rover is $37.74 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 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 July 2026, there are 2,189 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Waddell. 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.
95% of Waddell 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 Waddell 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 Waddell 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 Waddell.
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 Waddell 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.
