Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Waddell
I had a great experience with Michelle. She took excellent care of my two babies and consistently communicated with me, which made everything feel a lot less stressful. As someone new to the area, it can be difficult to get settled, but Michelle helped me through the process and made it much easier. I’m very grateful.
Dina was wonderful with my dog over the holiday weekend while I was out of town. She provided loving, attentive care and kept me updated, which gave me great peace of mind. My dog was clearly happy and comfortable with her. I highly recommend Dina and would gladly have her care for my dog again!
I can’t rave enough about Andria, Jonathan and family! They accepted my request on short notice and allowed me the opportunity to bring Denim and Zara over for a meet and greet. I received daily updates and photos “every” morning on my girls and they were treated like family. Andria kept me well informed on my oldest and ensured she had her meds as required. If you’re looking for an excellent sitter and an amazing family to care for your fur babies, I highly recommend Andria and Jonathan. I will definitely re-book over and over!!!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Waddell on Rover is $37.74 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 2,231 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.
96% 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.
