“I was worried about using Rover for the first time and having a stranger in my house while I was not there but Emily was everything I could have hoped for! She was very nice, quick to respond, on time, sent me pictures on every visit, and went above and beyond. 10 out of 10 stars for Emily. Thank you Emily for your professionalism and taking care of Ivy!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, big and small. I currently have a 5 year old Golden Retriever who means everything to me! I currently work from home so I am home all day! Perfect for multiple walks every day and I also live by multiple dog parks! I have a fenced in yard. I also work from home so I am always around for multiple walks and anything the dogs would need!
“Heather was absolutely amazing with my two dogs, Winston and Jack. From the start, she was professional, friendly, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving them in her care. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which really gave me peace of mind while I was away. Winston and Jack both looked happy, relaxed, and very well cared for when I got back. It was obvious Heather spent quality time with them and treated them like her own dogs. She paid attention to their routines, made sure they got plenty of care and attention, and went above and beyond to make them comfortable. I would definitely book with Heather again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets.”
“Ava was great! She was very communicative, sent updates and photos during every visit, and took wonderful care of my dogs. She quickly earned their trust and handled them really well. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life in the household. When I was a young teen my first job was dog walking the neighborhood dogs as well as dog sitting for vacationing families. As an adult my love for dog sitting continued to watching all my friends pets while they traveled or led busy lifestyles. I currently have a flexible schedule daily. I am available mornings, mid days and evenings I have a few children that I take to school in the morning. I live in an apartment and make sure my dog is walked on long walks 3-4 times a day to receive the fresh air and exercise needed.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Avondale
Lindsey was absolutely incredible. Our boys loved her and she did an incredible job with them. She really went above and beyond and helped care for our cats, with one of them being very sick and gave us updates on him. Her communication was always thorough and she always sent us pictures and videos! It was a great experience!
Jane is always perfect ❤️ our dogs are so much more calm when we get home when Jane watches them vs anyone else. They love her. We have a senior who is approaching more problematic years. And Jane has been so interested in her and her condition. We trust her to be the one with her when we are gone.
Thank you for checking in on the pups! I’m glad you were able to spend some time with them. Would it be ok if I out you in a group texting chat with four other girls only for the purposes of using the chat in the future if called out of town for that transplant? If yes, please confirm your phone number . And if you’re uncomfortable with that no worries, I’m happy to contact you on rover. I just figured it will be easier to coordinate something last minute with the group of emergency pet care roster I’ve created. Thank you for being willing to jump in if you’re available when that time comes!
We had Allyson do a drop in when we took a day trip to Phoenix. She had stayed with our pets for a long weekend, so we were perfectly comfortable that all would go well. And it did. She’s a great communicator and really cares about our animals. Highly recommend her!

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 Avondale 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 Avondale 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. 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.
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 Avondale 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.
