“Briana was wonderful taking care of our fur kids. She went above by making sure our 16 yr old cat was safe after not being able to find her in the morning. She went back to make sure she was safe and found her. My routine with my pets is a bit crazy because they take pills other supplements. She did everything right and even watered a plant that's out back, every day! I'd have her sit for my pets again in a heartbeat!”
“Jennifer did a wonderful job taking care of our cats and they warmed up to her immediately. Her great notes, pictures, and video updates while we were away put our minds at complete ease!”
“Melissa is the BEST! She is truly the cat whisperer, especially with our old dude. We so appreciate the patience and kindness she gives them. Her communication is wonderful & she is so accommodating. Recommend 100%!!!”
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.
About: I grew up on a farm in Wisconsin. We had dogs, cats, and all sorts of animals. I love my pup and will take great care of yours. I am available on weekends and late afternoons / evenings. I have a full time job, 7 to 4, so would have to work around that for home sitting. I will take great care of your pet, I am attentive to their needs, and am familiar with different types of dogs and their behavior.
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.

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.

About: Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a pet parent to two dogs, Duke and Smokey, and my cat, Zuri. I’ve also cared for family pets, so I know how much it means to have someone you trust looking after them. I’m playful and loving, but I also pay close attention to each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. I’ll follow your instructions, keep you updated, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is already part of my daily life with my two dogs and cat.

About: I am happy to offer SAME-DAY booking requests! 😊 Hi, my name is Mackenzie, and I’d love to care for your pets. I grew up on a ranch surrounded by animals, including dogs, cats, horses, and cattle. I’ve even owned nine guinea pigs at once! I have experience caring for puppies, kittens, senior dogs and cats, following strict dietary regimens, administering medications, and much more. I’m also a dog parent myself to Juniper, my playful one-year-old French Bulldog who follows a specific feeding schedule and playtime routine, so I understand the importance of providing consistent, attentive care. I have a lifelong love for animals and would love to provide your pets with the same love, attention, and care I give my own! I am home full time so my schedule is very flexible to provide pet care services throughout the week. My dog is very kind and would love new friends to play with for doggy daycare as well! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I will follow their usual routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding on schedule, fresh water, potty breaks, walks/playtime, and lots of attention and affection. I also make sure the home stays clean and safe, including cleaning up after pets (litter box, poop pick-up, and even the occasional accidents, if necessary). If your pet takes medication or has special care instructions, I’m happy to follow those as well. In addition, I have experience in the medical field, so I know how to administer medications properly. I will always communicate with you via message and provide updates through photos daily so you feel confident that your pets are happy and well cared for.
About: I have various experience with dogs and cats from veterinary clinics, volunteer work at a shelter, regular pet sitting opportunities, and from being a pet owner of two dogs and co-mom to a kitten. These experiences have allowed me to acknowledge when a fear free methods can be applied, what behaviors to monitor, and how to watch for heat exhaustion since living in a desert environment. I am also qualified to administer medications if your pet requires it. I work weekly at a veterinary clinic for dogs and cats. I take care of my own pets when home. I volunteer at a local animal shelter twice a week or three times a month. I make sure my pets have enrichment. This could be tossing a toy, exercise, practicing different training commands, or feeding a treat. I pick up after them, refill food and water bowls, give them a bath when necessary, will go for a drive to change environment, and lots of cuddles.

“Last minute I needed a Rover and Nikkole popped up on my recommendations. She was GREAT! She followed the instructions to a T, was on time, and extremely communicative. My 4 year old Australian Shepard can be a lot and Nikkole did a great job playing fetch. My black cat was being initially shy and Nikkole climbed under our bed with churu to show her she was safe, and within 10 minutes the cat was sitting on her lap. Nikkole has become a new go to sitter for me and can’t thank her enough for the last minute help!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Apache Junction
Jasmine was wonderful! She was dependable, followed all of my instructions, and kept me updated by sending lots of pictures of my dogs. It gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I would definitely recommend Jasmine to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
Sarah watched our two dogs for us for 3 days, she was very prompt on her arrival times and sending pictures and notes updating us while we were away. She was very kind to our pups and made sure they felt comfortable while we were away, walked daily, fed and watered, she was fantastic!! If you have the chance to use her for your dog sitting needs, we recommend her very much!
Jennifer was a godsend for sure! Taking over for another service that left my babies uncared for. She jump right in like she knew them already. And they loved her, of course! The communication was fantastic! Lot's of video, pictures and notes all helped me feel better about leaving my girls. They were in the best care I could have asked for! I will use Jennifer and Rover every time from now on!!
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Apache Junction is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 5,535 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Apache Junction. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Apache Junction. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
