Adding custom domain to Azure Web App (new portal) won't verify

I have been trying for 3 days now to link custom domains, caretopets.com and www.caretopets.com, to an Azure Web app - the issue is that I am was not able to verify it (I get both Domain ownership and Hostname availability errors).

The domain is newly purchased from godaddy. I read several articles, and also have other web app with different domain linked. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong.

I added the required A, TXT and CNAME records as seen here:

GoDaddy Records

I checked the records with digwebinterface:

DigiWeb Results

The only thing is that there are some strange additional CNAMEs.

I also tried to verify a domain that is already linked to another web app in the same subscription, and even that one won't verify as well.

Any suggestions on where to go from here would be helpful.

To map custom domain to web app, I create the DNS record(s) like this. I could validate Domain successfully.

Please make sure whether you point to correct IP address and Azure app's default domain name.

Besides, this article shows us how to manually map a custom domain name to web app with detailed steps, please refer to it.
