Help With Sarracenia Purpurea and Pinguicula Weser Arizona Dormancy

I live in the Gilbert-Chandler area. I have a Sarracenia purpurea and Pinguicula Weser and I was wondering how to handle their dormancy and succulent phase respectively. I am currently growing them indoors at the moment since it is so hot outside, aside from the recent coolness due to the rainy weather. The Purpurea is under a grow light and the Pinguicula is in an east facing window sill. I am still watering them like normal.

Do they need a dormancy/succulent phase? I have seen some things that say its fine to not trigger the dormancy/succulent phase and some things that say it can stress them out so I am not sure whether it would be detrimental to not let it happen.

How do I ensure that they enter the dormancy/succulent phase? How do I know when they have entered it? And how do I care for them during it? I found some info on this when I Googled it, but I would feel better hearing it from people who have experience with it.

Looking for Arizona plant shops

I live in Arizona and it is currently getting up to 100°F or more everyday so I am concerned about any plants I order online surviving the trip. Does anyone know of any plant shops in Arizona that sell carnivorous plants other than the Venus Fly Traps sold at places like Lowes and Home Depot?
