“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Book. Her. Immediately. Brea took exceptional care of our FELV kiddos, Cecil and Carla, and we truly could not have asked for a better sitter. From day one, her updates were thoughtful, detailed, and downright joyful to read — we looked forward to every check-in. She somehow immediately won over our extremely shy Carla (a true miracle), and Cecil — who is known for avoiding dinner — happily ate the food Brea put out for him like an absolute champ. That alone speaks volumes. Brea has such a natural, intuitive way with animals. She built genuine relationships with our cats, gave them so much love, snuggles, playtime, and reassurance, and treated them as if they were her own. Every update left us feeling calm, confident, and so grateful. We came home to happy, settled, well-loved kitties — the ultimate sign of a fantastic sitter. We cannot wait to book Brea again, and we recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone kind, attentive, and truly special. 💛🐾”

“Jennifer was amazing! I have three cats and went away for a week. They’ve never been left alone that long and I needed someone to care for them and to give me peace of mind. Jennifer did just that! She even checked my mail for me when I didn’t ask. She visited twice a day, she was on time and my cats warmed up to her quickly. I’m thankful we met and will definitely use Jennifer again!”

“She's awesome! My shy cat that interacts with no one and I mean NO ONE other than me can right out to play and visit with this sitter. She is reliable, on time and an excellent pet caregiver.”


About: Please note: there is a glitch in the Rover platform in terms of star ratings. Support is working on it. I have an excellent history and will take great care of your pet. Please contact Rover support for clarification as they work on resolving that issue. I've always been a huge dog lover! In addition to helping pet sit for friends and family, I’ve been lucky enough to take in four foster pups of my own. Unfortunately, I lost three of them in the past few years, which has only made me want to spend even more time with dogs. In lieu of getting more of my own, I decided that I want to be of service to the animals and their owners. I’ve always enjoyed the experience and I’m happy to help out other owners and pooches in need. Over the years, I've cared for dozens of dogs and have rescued four. My last of the four is Gizzy, a little Shitzu. I take him with me to work and out and about. He's my little buddy! I love having a connection with dogs, and Gizzy and I have definitely fused a very strong bond between us. He is very friendly and loves other pups, so your pooch will always have a friend around. Making sure that both you and your pup feel completely comfortable and well taken care of us my number one goal. I always make sure to treat you and your pup with the utmost respect. During a stay, I’ll make sure to keep in daily contact by way of text and picture messages so you can know exactly how your pup is getting along and what we’ve done that day. I’ll treat them as if they were my own! I’ll keep your dog on a schedule as close to what they’re used to as possible. We’ll play with their favorite toys. They can sleep with me and will get a lot of snuggles and pets from me. I don’t have any breed restrictions, but I always like to schedule a meet-and-greet for new clients. I always try to get to a dog’s level and make them feel as comfortable as possible with me by letting them smell my hand, finding their favorite scratch spot, using a soft, fun voice to talk to them, and letting them take their time to get used to me.
“Thank you Diane for fitting this unexpected need into your calendar. Truly appreciated the additional note out lining your experience with my pup. That personal note told me much more than a picture of her and a list of the chores that were requested. Thank you for your thoughtfulness.”

“Morgen has been amazing watching my dog for the past month! She goes above and beyond whether it’s keeping me updated on my dog, or if something is happening in the neighborhood while gone! She truly cares and is passionate about taking care of animals!”


“Suzy was great. She came and took care of Pepper, fed her and made sure she had plenty of exercise before she left. I was so happy that she was there for Pepper. I would recommend her.”
“Robyn is incredible. She came to the rescue during an emergency without even blinking. Extremely Grateful for her kindness towards Hudson, and her excellent communication skills. ❤️🐾”
“Sarah was available with a shorter notice than I would typically give, so that was great! Her calm demeanor was EXACTLY what I look for. She sent great photos where my dogs were literally smiling, and had great communication. Definitely book her! 🎉”

About: Hi! I’m Hannah. Have had animals since the day I was born. 28 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I am a bartender 3 nights a week so I have plenty of extra time during the day for walks, play time & potty breaks. I have a fenced yard with dirt and a doggy door to access the yard whenever they feel necessary. Shade & sun to accommodate their sun bathing routine. Lots of parks and grassy areas for walks when it cools off.
About: I owned a golden retriever dog for the first half of my life. I have strong skills in caring for dogs and providing the absolute best care as possible. I'm currently working part-time and would love to work with any animals in my off time! My availability is a little bit all over the place so please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask, I’m usually pretty quick at getting a response back whether the timing works or not. I can provide walks, hangouts, and interactive fun times for your pets! I can do drop ins, sitting, and overnights, just let me know what you need and we’ll make it happen!

About: Our background is heavily centered on all breeds (including working breeds and large, powerful dogs). We know that strong, high-energy pups require confident handlers who understand how to maintain clear boundaries, structure, and a calm environment. If you have a large dog or a breed that other sitters might find intimidating, they are completely safe and welcome with us. Our Expertise Includes: ● Behavioral Understanding & Training: We have a deep grasp of behavioral principles and positive reinforcement. We focus on reading canine body language to prevent stress and keep a multi-dog environment completely harmonious. We even implement advanced mental enrichment and communication systems at home (like word-button training!) to keep smart minds sharp. ● Structured Routines: We know how critical consistency is for a dog away from home. We strictly mirror your feeding, crate, and medical schedules to ensure a seamless transition. ● Valley Heat Safety: As locals, we are experts in managing desert summers. We know exactly how to look for signs of heat stress, protect paws, and keep dogs thoroughly entertained indoors when it's too hot to be out. Whether your pup needs a structured environment to burn off working-breed energy or a patient, gentle approach for a shy dog, we have the skills and experience to make their stay a 5-star experience. Our Availability & Service Schedule: Because I am a stay-at-home mom, our schedule is incredibly flexible, allowing us to offer top-tier care whether your pet is staying with us or we are visiting them at your home. Here is how our routine works across our different services: 1. For Boarding & Doggy Daycare (At Our Home) Round-the-Clock Supervision: I am home full-time during the day, meaning guest pets enjoy constant companionship, frequent potty breaks (every 2–3 hours), and strict adherence to their feeding schedules. Beat the Heat Routine: Mid-days (8:30 AM – 4:30 PM) are strictly for indoor relaxation in the AC, puzzle toys, and mental enrichment. Outdoor playtime is kept to the cooler morning and evening hours. Drop-off & Pick-up Flexibility: Since I am anchored at home, we can easily accommodate flexible drop-off and pick-up windows between 7:00 AM and 8:00 PM to match your travel or commute schedule. 2. For Drop-ins & Check-ins (At Your Home) Flexible Daytime Visits: If you need someone to check in on your cats or dogs, feed them, scoop litter, or let them out for a midday potty break, I am available for local neighborhood visits during the day. Tag-Team Coverage: My husband, Juan, tags in during his off-shift hours and weekends. This team dynamic means we have excellent availability to cover early morning, evening, or weekend check-ins when you are stuck at work or out of town. Real-Time Updates: For every check-in, you’ll receive an immediate update, photos of your pets, and confirmation that they are safe, fed, and happy. Weekends & Holidays We have fantastic coverage for weekend boarding and house check-ins. While Juan handles a couple of overnight work shifts, I am home sleeping right alongside our boarding guests, and Juan is fully available during his weekend daylight hours to help manage the routine or conduct visits. We treat your pets and your home with the utmost respect, providing a structured, safe, and loving environment every single time! We believe that peace of mind is the most important thing we can give a pet owner. Our home is set up specifically to prioritize structure, security, and absolute transparency. When your dog stays with us, they aren't just crashing on our floor—they have a space tailored entirely to their safety and comfort. The Dedicated Dog Room & 24/7 Camera Access We have a fully dedicated, climate-controlled guest room in our home exclusively for the dogs we watch. Individual Kennels: The room is equipped with high-quality, sturdy crates. Every dog has their own secure kennel for sleeping, structured downtime, and feeding. This prevents any multi-dog friction and gives your pup a quiet, safe space to decompress. Your Personal 24/7 Live Feed: We believe in complete transparency. We have a secure, high-definition pet camera set up in the dog room, and we give you direct access to the live link 24/7. Whether you are at work, at a dinner, or on a flight across the country, you can log in at any second of the day or night to see exactly how your pup is resting and relaxing. Backyard & Home Security Fully Fenced Yard: Our backyard is completely secured with a sturdy fence and locked gates. Dogs are never allowed outside unsupervised; either Lesly or Juan is always in the yard monitoring playtime. Separate Feeding & High-Value Items: To eliminate any chance of resource guarding, all dogs are fed completely separately inside their own kennels. Toys and treats are strictly monitored and handed out individually. Child-Safe & Pet-Safe Environment: Because our home is run by a full-time stay-at-home mom, our living spaces are kept meticulously clean, organized, and free of any hazardous items or loose chords. Health & Heat Safety Protocols Living in the Valley, we take heat safety incredibly seriously. We actively monitor the indoor temperature of the dog room to ensure the AC is running perfectly. We strictly adhere to your specific medication schedules, dietary restrictions, and emergency contact protocols. We maintain a low-occupancy, high-attention home. By capping our guest list, keeping a dedicated space, and giving you an open window into their room via our live camera, we ensure your dog gets a safe, luxury boarding experience while you get total peace of mind.
About: I have had dogs most of my life. Senior dogs love me. Compassionate and quiet household where all dogs are welcome. I am very active and would be happy to take your pet for walks. I work a very flexible schedule and I am able to meet most needs easily, whether that is in my own home or in yours. I have a small yard and a portable pet fence for outdoor time. Inside, pets are welcome to roam but I do have a pet porter available. Loving, quiet home will help make your pets feel safe.
About: I believe cats are part of the family. I provide dependable, attentive, and compassionate pet care services tailored to each pet’s personality and routine. My services can include daily walks, drop-in visits, feeding, fresh water refills, administering basic medications if needed, playtime, companionship, litter box cleaning, overnight stays, and maintaining your pet’s normal schedule while you’re away. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, patience, and positive interaction, so I focus on creating a calm and comfortable environment where they feel safe and cared for. I also make communication a priority by providing updates, photos, and check-ins so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are in good hands. My experience with pet care comes from both personal and hands-on experience caring for animals with different temperaments, sizes, and energy levels. I have cared for dogs and cats with varying needs, from energetic pets that require active play and long walks to older pets that benefit from a slower pace and extra attention. Through experience, I’ve learned the importance of reading animal behavior, being patient, staying alert to changes in mood or health, and building trust with each pet individually. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and believe that quality pet care goes beyond basic responsibilities—it’s about making sure pets feel loved, secure, and happy while their owners are away. In terms of availability, I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate meaningful time and attention to the pets in my care. I understand how important reliability is when trusting someone with a family pet, so I work hard to be dependable, punctual, and responsive. Depending on the service requested, I can accommodate walks, check-ins, evening care, weekends, and extended visits. I balance my schedule carefully to ensure pets are never rushed and always receive the attention they deserve. Whether it’s keeping an active dog engaged, spending quiet time with an anxious pet, or simply maintaining a consistent routine, I aim to provide professional, trustworthy care while creating a positive experience for both pets and their owners. I work but I do have family home at all times. I clean the litter box every other day and feed as often as you do.

Thank you Diane for fitting this unexpected need into your calendar. Truly appreciated the additional note out lining your experience with my pup. That personal note told me much more than a picture of her and a list of the chores that were requested. Thank you for your thoughtfulness.

I was pleased with Karsyn taking care of my Maggie while I was gone for a few days over Thanksgiving, She arrived on time and stayed the hour that she was assigned. She made sure to send me pictures and updates on the days she was here. I used her as a drop in caregiver for just a few days to cover during the days my regular sitter wasn't available. The only problem I had was when I contacted her I didn't realize her profile information hadn't been updated. I wanted someone to do overnight coverage which she wasn't available to do since the birth of her little boy. It all worked out as I had another gal covering the rest of the time. She and Maggie seemed to get along just fine and she was reliable. I would use her again without hesitation.
Stephanie is great. I’m overbearingly protective of Chloe given her handicap status. Stephanie took the time to absorb everything about Chloe’s background and was attentive to every detail discussed. I’d highly recommend her for both her empathy for animals and for being exceptionally good hearted. I thank you.

Inez is a friendly and warm person. She gives our dog Ember lots of attention. Ember adores her. While we are away Inez will also feed our wild birds, and bring in our mail and newspaper. We leave home knowing Ember and our home will be well taken care of.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Apache Junction stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Apache Junction choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Apache Junction with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
