About: I've owned dogs most of my life and they are such a huge part of the family. I know how hard it is to leave them because I experience the same thing and rely on trustworthy people to watch my dog. I will treat your dog like I treat my own With lots of love, care and attention. I live in a friendly safe environment and your dog will feel at home here. I am retired and have time to care for your dog. Also my husband works from home so there is always someone around. I would enjoy looking after your dog. I enjoy walks and playtime and cuddling. Dogs truly bring happiness to every home. I just love them! I live in a community with a fenced in yard. I have a five year-old 23 pound cavapoo. He is very social and loves others. We have a nice community for walks and my dog looks forward to them all the time. I do have a crate if that was needed but it is not necessary if your dog is behaved and potty trained. My dog uses bells on the doors when he needs to go out. We Never let our dog outside unattended. They're allowed up on the furniture and to sleep with us. They are part of the family.
“Jeanne is a wonderful dog sitter! This was our first time using Rover and Jeanne made the entire process so easy. She was extremely accommodating to our specific needs for Nairobi’s daycare. Nairobi and her dog Kona got along so well and Jeanne sent us pictures and updates every day. We know we have found our go to dog sitter and we look forward to having our pup stay with her again.”
“Great communication, very friendly, and did a fantastic job looking after Gunner. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing a dog sitter, and would use again if the need arises.”
About: Hi, I’m Erika! I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have years of experience caring for pets of all sizes. While I happily care for dogs and cats of any breed, I especially enjoy working with large, high-energy dogs. I currently have a rescued Husky/Shepherd mix named Dune, and we’ve spent hours training, hiking, walking, and working on mental enrichment together. Whether your dog loves long walks, trail adventures, fetch, or simply plenty of attention, I’m happy to tailor my care to their personality and energy level. If your pup enjoys canine company and you’re comfortable with it, I’d love to bring them along on one of our walks or hikes! Growing up, I had a German Shepherd/Lab mix for 11 years, followed by helping care for a Husky/Lab mix and fostering another Husky before adopting Dune. These experiences have made me comfortable handling strong, intelligent breeds and given me a deep appreciation for each dog’s unique personality. As a millennial dog mom, I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat them and love them like one of my own and keep you updated every step of the way with photos and messages so you can have complete peace of mind, exactly as I would want when I’m away. I am available before, sometimes during, and after my 9-5 job, or on most weekends, to walk or check in on your pup! I’m also happy to host pets in my home, but would love a meet and greet to make sure they get along with Dune. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I know every pet has their own routine, so I take the time to learn their schedule, preferences, and any special instructions to help them feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll treat both your pet and your home with the same respect I would my own. I’ll follow your feeding, walking, medication, and training routines, keep your home clean and secure, and always make sure doors, gates, and leashes are safely handled. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you’re away. If your pet is staying with me, they’ll be treated like part of the family. They’ll have plenty of exercise, playtime, enrichment, and, of course, lots of love and attention. I believe in positive reinforcement, close supervision, and creating a calm, safe environment where every pet can feel at home. And yes, they are allowed on furniture in this household :)
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover and experienced pet caregiver with a home full of personality including my two Shar-Peis (Dior and Hercules) and two tortoises(Cleo and Franklin). Caring for my special needs Shar-Pei Hercules has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important individualized care is for every pet. I know pets are family, and I treat every animal with the same love, safety, and attention I give my own. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, routine, or extra patience, I’m committed to making them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I work part-time (8 days per month), which allows me to dedicate a large portion of my time to pet care. My daily routine already revolves around caring for my own pets, including two Shar-Peis—one with special needs—and two tortoises. Because of this, I’m experienced in maintaining consistent schedules, providing attentive supervision, and adapting care based on each animal’s individual needs. I’m able to offer dependable, flexible care and give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a loving, calm, and attentive environment where pets are treated like family. I understand that every animal has different needs, personalities, and routines, and I make it a priority to follow their schedule as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. In my home, pets receive plenty of attention, supervised play, potty breaks, exercise, and affection. I have experience caring for my own two Shar-Peis, including one with special needs, which has taught me patience, awareness, and the importance of individualized care. I also care for two tortoises, giving me experience with animals beyond dogs as well. I’m attentive to behavior, eating habits, and overall comfort, and I’m happy to follow any feeding, medication, or care instructions you provide. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and at home while giving you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and horses since I was 8 years old. I grew up in a rural area, running around farms and have always had a special place in my heart for animals. Now as an adult I have over 23 years of experience as a pet owner. You can trust us to provide exceptional pet sitting services for your furry friend. We work remotely and will be with your dog throughout the day. We have medium cattle dog mix of our own that is extremely friendly and loves to play with other dogs of all sizes. I am currently working in a hybrid position with a flexible schedule. This allows me take breaks to play with the dogs and ensure they are able to go outside to potty during the day. We have a fenced yard and own one medium sized dog. We do have a doggy door so they can go in and out as needed. I have a crate if your dog needs to be crated and we need to go out of the house. We have several soft dog beds for them to nap in as well.
About: My first dog I got when I was in the 4th grade. She changed my life. Now I’ve never been able to connect with a dog on that level since her but I still love them. & hope some day I will be able to give my kids that. I am a single mom with 3 kids under the age of 6. Adding a fur baby to the mix just isn’t in the cards for me right now. & after this year I’m looking to get back on my feet. So I thought this could be a good way to make some extra money to help us. We are a very active bunch. Love hiking, walking, and pretty much anything outdoors. Like I said before we are always outside. I like to take walks in the morningsevenings. Love hiking. I work from home so I can make my own schedule. Depends on the dog. Just like my kids each one is different. What works for one might not work for the other. I would like to mimic as much as the dogs normal as possible.

“Clare was wonderful! She provided everything we needed for our dogs. She was accommodating when our transportation plan to pick up at the end of the days was seriously compromised. She communicated throughout the day about how the dogs were doing and also responded immediately when informed that we would be delayed by quite a bit. She was gracious and kind as well. I have already recommended her to friends and will use her again when we return to this area.”
About: Hi! We’re a husband-and-wife team who both work from home, which means your pup will have lots of company, attention, and love throughout the day. We recently lost our own beloved dog unexpectedly after an illness, and while we miss her dearly, we have so much love left to give. Becoming Rover sitters feels like a meaningful way to welcome other dogs into our home and treat them like family. Our home is very dog-friendly, with a fenced backyard and a pool for pups who enjoy swimming. Dogs are welcome on the couch and can sleep in bed with us if that’s what makes them happiest.

This was my first experience leaving my dog with a sitter. I couldn’t have made a better choice than Lisa! I could tell she loves dogs as soon as she met Jake. During his first stay with her, she send pictures and reassurance that he was doing well. I plan to use her in the future for my dog sitting needs.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Anthem commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
