“Audrey was excellent! Our regular pet sitter on Rover was unavailable for our most recent trip, and we were initially a little nervous about finding someone new to care for our pets and be in our home. However, Audrey quickly put us at ease. She came over beforehand to introduce herself, communicated clearly throughout, and sent us adorable pictures of our furry family while we were away. We felt completely comfortable and confident in her care. We will absolutely use her again in the future. Thank you, Audrey!”
“We’ve been lucky enough to book Mady twice now, and both experiences have been absolutely perfect. She sends the sweetest photos of her adventures with Bailey, and you can truly see the love and care she puts into every visit. I feel 1,000,000% confident that Bailey is in great hands when she’s with Mady. That kind of peace of mind is priceless. We highly recommend her!”
“My babies love Stephanie. Even the one who is skittish about anyone other than his Mom. This was the first time I was gone a week and there were no issues. I am completely comfortable with Stephanie taking care of the two.”
“Amber was great! I let her know in my initial instructions that the dog only needed to be let out and she took it upon herself to walk her anyways! She took great care of both our dog and our cat! We will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
About: I have over 2 years of experience dog sitting and walking, and I genuinely love getting to know each pup’s personality.I’ve mostly worked with small to medium dogs, but I’ve also cared for big breeds like Great Danes—so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes! Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping them company, I always stick to your dog’s routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I’m reliable, patient, and will treat your dog like my own 💛 You can also expect lots of updates and cute pictures while you’re away! Pet care fits easily into my routine as a Radiologic Tech student. I am available anytime Friday through Sundays for walks, check-ins, and housesitting. I keep pets safe and comfortable based on the client's home and backyard. I follow instructions closely and can crate dogs if that’s part of their normal routine.
About: I’ve taking care of dogs and cats my whole life. I live in an apartment and have two cats. I love dogs and I can’t have one here in the apartment complex. So this is my way I can get my needs met. I’m a very caring and dedicated person to my clients and their dogs and cats. I have two cats and they love sitting with me and watching TV. I mean it they watch TV with me. My one cat has to smell every food that I eat. She won’t always eat it but she has to smell it or she won’t leave me alone. Love that girl. I live in an apartment but I can easily drop in feed, walk them and play with them. Staying overnight is fine with me as well.
About: Hi! I've spent many years caring for a wide variety of animals, including cats, dogs, birds, horses, and goats. My experience with both household pets and larger animals has taught me how to recognize different personalities, understand animal behavior, and provide attentive, compassionate care. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, feeding, playtime, exercise, companionship, or extra patience and attention, I'm committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I understand that trusting someone with your pets is a big decision, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I pride myself on being dependable, detail-oriented, and communicative. You can expect regular updates and photos during each visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. I work from home Monday-Friday. I have a few brakes throughout my day. I can stop by on one of my breaks or after I get off work at 2pm. I have a fenced in yard surround by a block wall. We live on a quiet street in a quiet neighborhood. I have 2 pretty good doggos. We will go on walks when its cooler in the day. We have some toys to play with. We will play tug o war and fetch.
“Excellent cat sitter! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of my cats while I was out of town. She followed all instructions and kept me updated throughout the trip, which I really appreciated. Everything was handled exactly as expected, and I returned home to two happy cats. Highly recommend, and I'll definitely be using her again for future trips.”
About: Since age 12, I’ve provided 11 years of loving pet sitting for dogs, cats, and horses. Farm-raised with 4 dogs (one ESA-trained), I comfortably watch up to 6 at once. Currently available weekends all day and weekdays after 4:30pm. In a few months I’ll add full weekday availability. As a new mom, I offer reliable, loving pet care. I provide attentive, personalized care for every type of dog, faithfully following each owner’s unique standards and routines so your pet feels right at home.
“Thanks for taking such great care of our cats. Everyone is happy and healthy. One of our cats was under the weather and Melissa was very observant and on the ball and took great notes for us. We could tell she was actively engaged and not doing the bare minimum.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was very young. For 20 years, I have cared for four dogs of my own, 2 pit bull terriers, a chihuahua, and a 5-month-old pitbull husky mix, all rescued from the humane society. I have also cared for multiple breeds of different ages and sizes in my lifetime of friends and families. I enjoy caring for different types of dogs including training, bathing, feeding, playtime, and walking. I am currently a graduate student at the University of South Dakota (online) and have a part-time job. Here are my available days/hours: M - F: 7am-11:30am ; 6:00pm-9pm I currently live in a pet-friendly apartment surrounded by parks. A little yard outside of the apartments is available to all residents and pets. I provide a bed for the pet and if the pet prefers a bed or couch, I am also open to those options. I do live with my boyfriend who is a student-athlete at the University of Illinois. He also has 10+ years of experience with dogs. We very much are dog lovers so your dog will get the care and attention he/she needs.
About: I have had a wide variety of pets that I have cared for. I love cats and dogs of all sizes and varieties! I have cared for pets just out of surgery as well as older pets with various issues. I am retired and need something to occupy my time! I am available day or night. I am willing to help however I am needed. I want to keep the closest routine as possible for all pets for the least amount of disruption so I will cater to them! I will need detailed instructions and expectations to make sure all visits go as planned.
“I can't say enough great things about Therese! She took such amazing care of my dogs, and it was clear they absolutely loved her. She provided detailed updates during each visit, along with plenty of photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Knowing my dogs were not only well cared for but also happy and loved made all the difference. If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter, I highly recommend Therese—she truly goes above and beyond!”
About: Animals have been part of my life for decades. I currently share my home with three small dogs, a senior rescue dog, and a backyard hen, and over the years I've cared for large breeds, rescue dogs, chickens, fish, birds, cats, and hamsters. Every animal has taught me that each one has a unique personality, preferences, and way of communicating. I'm especially comfortable caring for senior companions and understand that they often need extra patience, a slower pace, medications, and a consistent routine. I know how important it is to earn an animal's trust rather than expect it. When I'm caring for your companion, my goal is simple: to make them feel safe, respected, and loved while you're away. I'll pay attention to the little things that make them who they are, follow your instructions carefully, and keep you updated so you can travel with confidence, knowing they're in caring hands. I still have a couple years until retirement and work during the week, so I am currently only offering weekend house drop-ins, no overnights at this time. I understand that every companion has their own routine, personality, and comfort level. My first priority is to learn how you care for them at home so I can provide as much consistency as possible while you're away. In your home, I'll carefully follow your feeding schedule, exercise routine, medication instructions, and any special requests. I'll keep doors, gates, and leashes secure, pay close attention during walks and outdoor time, and always be mindful of your companion's safety and well-being. I'll also keep you informed with regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. My goal is for your companion to feel safe, cared for, and respected, and for you to return home knowing they received the same thoughtful care I would want for my own animals.
About: I had a dog since I was 13-28. The dog lived to be over 16. Recently, my ex took our dog because he has better availability to let her out and give her the best life. Anyways, I love pets. I feel like i’m supposed to hype myself up more, but I feel like your pet will tell you whether or not i’m worthy. I work 8-5 M-F. W-F I could probably let a dog out. I’ll mainly just be available weekends, though. Thank you so very, very much! In my home I have a small backyard they can potty in. I also have a dog park nearby. In your home I will do whatever walk or potty schedule you would like.
“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.”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Apache Junction is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Apache Junction
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.

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
