“We appreciate you so much. What I love the most about trusting you with our babies is seeing their body language in the photos you provide. They are clearly so fond of you and that gives me so much peace. Thank you for going above and beyond you are truly the best.”
“Jane was so attentive with our sweet boy while we were gone. She sent lots of pictures and updates to help keep our minds at ease. Will definitely use her services for our kitty for all our future trips 😊”
“I love coming back to my home feeling the same way it was when I left it. Even more so I love knowing my cats felt comfortable enough to eat their food while we were gone. Emily always makes sure to get everything done on the list I leave her, and always does everything the way I ask, which is so appreciated!! Thank you Emily!!”
“Katie was great!!! I just met her for the first time today and she spent extra time with our 2 dogs and we really appreciate it. The dogs love her and we will be using her again real soon. Janeth”
“Daisy is an excellent care taker and I am so happy to have found her. She always goes above and beyond to make sure my kitty is taken care of. I trust her completely and never have to worry when I leave my kitty with her because I know he’s in good hands. Thank you daisy!”
“Jaylah was absolutely amazing with my dog Luna! This was my first time using Rover, and she made the entire experience so comfortable and stress-free. She dropped in for the last three days to hang out with Luna, feed her, give her potty breaks, and spend quality playtime with her. Luna instantly loved her, which says everything because I can always tell when my dog feels safe and happy around someone. Jaylah was attentive, caring, patient, and genuinely sweet with her. I could tell Luna was getting lots of love and attention while I was away. I truly appreciated the updates, care, and effort she put into every visit. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and loving to care for their pets. Thank you again, Jaylah! 🐶✨”

“We will definitely book Ava again for our boy!! She was very communicative, super easy to work with, and took great care of Mac and our boys. She took a variety of pictures to send and I appreciated it a lot since I miss him. Mac loved her!!!”
“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!”
“Patricia was truly amazing, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her care. She took extra time to help my dog warm up and feel safe, which meant everything to me. My pup was extremely difficult at first, but Patricia was so patient, gentle, and kind- never rushed, never discouraged. She went above and beyond by taking my dog on long walks, giving medication exactly as requested, and even working with her on training (she helped her learn to lay down!). The constant photo updates were so reassuring and showed just how much love and attention she was giving. It’s clear Patricia genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such thoughtful, capable hands. Thank you so much, Patricia — you’re incredible, and I would trust you again in a heartbeat!”
“Christine was great. Ours was a slightly complicated situation and Christine seemed to go with the flow and deal with whatever was tossed her way. We really appreciated her flexibility. Easy to work with. Pleasant. Bright. Fast. Goes above and beyond. (Took in our Amazon deliveries).”
“Heather is simply amazing! She is incredibly thorough with her visits and always makes sure my pets are well cared for and comfortable. She is friendly, dependable, and very responsive, which gives me so much peace of mind when I am away. I truly appreciate the updates and attention to detail. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a kid. Including dogs, cats, iguanas, turtles, and aquarium fish. I’ve had many different pets along the way, but currently only have one cat Penny. My kids are grown and out of the house so I have lots of flexibility. I work as a teacher but available most weekends, and maybe even during the week depending on the circumstances. You are opening your home to me and that is something that I do not take lightly. I am neat and clean and will leave your house that way too. I will love on your fur baby whatever way they need. Snuggles, treats, a passing glance at the grouchy kitty, I’m there for ya!
“Daisy is kind, considerate and communicative! We’ve booked with her many times, and will continue to do so. It’s nice to know we don’t need to stress about our fur babies when we’re out of the area 💛”
“Maddie was absolutely the best choice for a care taker for my babies. She played with them, sent sweet pictures of them to me daily. They absolutely adore her and she will forever be our person!”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Avondale is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Avondale
Lindsey was amazing!! She was able to take our crunch time last minute booking when our other sitter plans fell through. She came over for a meet & greet within 2 days of first contact & our dogs loved her! They were well cared for and Lindsey was so punctual & attentive to them. We will definitely use her again!
Rachel is absolutely amazing. She is the only rover we will ever use. She is a genuine and kind person, and our cat adores her. Rachel is dependable, has great communication, and plenty of experience. We received messages every visit and our kitty even gave her kisses!
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!
Destiny was great with my 4 cats for 2 full weeks! She sent updates and pictures each day and was very fast to respond to any questions or concerns. She also helped with a couple extra things, like bringing in my Amazon packages. She was amazing!! I would highly recommend her! I will definitely be asking for her again in the future! Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Avondale on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 6,446 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Avondale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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 Avondale. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 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.
