Elena was truly amazing in every sense of the word. Our babies loved her and she loved them. She made us feel comfortable while we were away from them for the first time in a long time and sent us so many updates and pictures! It was our puppy’s first vacation and Elena took the utmost care of her (and all of our fur babies). I’d so highly recommend her to foranyone at any time. We cannot wait to have her come stay again.

About: My home has never been without pets. I currently have 4 loving dogs of my own. They are a mixed breed pack of all ages. I care for one senior dog at the moment. I’ve raised several litters of puppies and found them great homes. I was a preschool teacher before so I know patience better than most. Animals have a big place in my heart. I run a business from home so I have super flexible hours and availability to tend to any and all care needs. Your pet will be my priority. I prefer to care for the pets in their own home and familiar areas. I find this gives them a good sense that nothing is changing and reduces stress for the animal. I am very familiar with crates and crate trained animals. I pay close attention to instructions given for food and medications. I will spend time with them not just drop by for 5 minutes, giving love, attention, exercise(if permitted).

Kaitlin did an incredible job with my 2 dogs. Constantly kept me informed as to how they were doing and sent multiple pictures every day. The boys were well taken care of. Took care of everything in the house and did a great job of walking the dogs both morning and night. Would definitely recommend her looking for someone to stay with their dogs.

Robert was wonderful! He was on time, very kind and took special care with our elderly and blind dachshund. She needs extra attention on walks and outside around our pool, he was very patient and understanding with this. He provided photos and detailed updates on how she was doing. Our house was spotless and our dog was calm and content when we arrived back home. We will be booking Rob for future dates.

About: I've been taking care of pets for neighbors and family friends for the past 4 years, and loved every second of it! I've been able to cuddle with puppies while watching a movie, wrestle with some teens pups and begrudgingly let them win, and I've taken calm walks around the backyard with a senior dog. I'm currently in school, so my day doesn't begin until 4 on weekdays, perfect for house sitting and sunset walks! On weekends, my schedule is completly free! I do have some Sunday morning commitments, as I work childcare for my church, but it has a flexible schedule for whatever you or your furry friend might need! I love to match the energy of pet and owner, so I can always provide the best experience. I'm able to lounge with some calm cats or play in the yard with some energetic puppies. I can take walks around your neighborhood, or go for drives if that's your pets vibe. In the end, if the pet is happy then so am I 😊

About: I am passionate about animals and I am working towards a degree in Bio-sciences with a goal of becoming a veterinarian ultimately. I have been caring for animals since I was 8. I am comfortable with all temperaments, and animals. I'm a online student at ASU so I'll have plenty of time to care for your animals. I'm available at all times and days with appropriate notice. I have a fenced yard and 1 dog friendly dog at this time. I would prefer to offer services directly to my clients home where possible other arrangements should be discussed in advance.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience! She did an amazing job watching our dogs and went above and beyond by also taking care of the house and watering all of our plants. She was incredibly responsible, reliable, and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs were happy and well cared for, and everything at home looked perfect when we returned. We will absolutely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!

Danielle stayed in my home for 5 days with my 2 dogs and 2 cats. She took great care of them- one of my dogs needed unexpected antibiotics which she just worked into their routine with ease. The house was in perfect order upon my return, my animals happy and healthy. Fantastic job and lots of pictures and feedback! Thank you so much Danielle!

About: Hi there! I’m Zandra, an animal lover with over 9+ years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I take pride in being calm, clean, dependable, and fully present with the pets I care for. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy their companionship and love making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. Every sit, walk, or drop in is important to me—it’s a chance to provide steady care, companionship, and peace of mind for both pets and their humans. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I work remotely, I’m home and available for plenty of attention, walks, play, and snuggles throughout the day. I keep a calm, clean environment and love having pets as my companions while I work. Feeding, potty breaks, lap cuddles, or a good game of fetch all fit easily into my schedule. I’m also working toward my Dog Trainer certification, so every interaction with a pet is a chance to practice patience, consistency, and lots of love. When house sitting, I treat your home and pets as if they were my own. I follow your routines for feeding, potty breaks, walks, and any special instructions, giving pets plenty of companionship, cuddles, and attention while you’re away. I also keep your home clean, organized, and secure, so you can relax knowing everything is taken care of. For dog walking, I provide safe, fun, and engaging walks tailored to your dog’s energy level and personality, making sure they get exercise, mental stimulation, and lots of love along the way. I aim to make every walk enjoyable and stress-free for your paw pals.

It you're on the fence and not sure if Rover is the way to go, I highly recommend you book Dakoda. I was really worried it was going to be a mess. I was pleasantly surprised when he offered to meet before hand and discuss the details of our upcoming trip. He immediately made me feel at ease and was very comfortable with my large dogs. Dakoda also notices the little things that needed to be cared for in our home. He changed our Christmas countdown while we were out. It's the little things that make a real difference. I can tell he not only cares about the pets but also cares about the family he stays with. Book Dakoda, he is truly a remarkable young man.

About: A true professional will provide you with unparalleled peace of mind so you can focus on family, fun or work while traveling. I'm Brit, an independently insured pet sitter and local Tucsonan. Pet sitting is my full time job! Booking with me will make it as easy and stress free as possible to be away from your beloved pet(s). The Kitty Cottage is a lovely garden studio where your feline friends can relax in peace without the worries of traditional boarding solutions that involve sharing ventilation and space with pets from other households. It has 128 sqft of floor space as well as a 32 sqft loft. The cottage has been designed for excellent bird watching opportunities from every level - floor, cat furniture and loft. Accessibility can be modified based on your kitties' needs. Cats of all personalities and physical ability love the climate-controlled cottage overlooking a garden which hosts many birds, butterflies, and lizards daily. We have every kind of pet enrichment to offer so your cat will benefit from novel, mentally satisfying experiences every single day! Music made for cats softly plays throughout the day, with the soundtrack changed daily. A tablet plays games and videos for them. New toys, tunnels and rugs are brought in daily to provide novelty. The kitty cottage will be your cat's ultimate vacation! I am very comfortable caring for diabetic and aging or grumpy cats and my calm energy puts them at ease. Everything in the cottage can be moved or modified to suit kitties with mobility issues. Your beloved furry companion(s) will be happy and well cared for if you trust them with me! I visit the cottage several times a day, depending on your cat's social and medical needs. Frequent visits provide kitties with plenty of time to play, give and receive affection, engage with enrichment items, and enjoy some human company. Mealtimes and medications will be followed to the letter. Your cat will also see me in the backyard throughout the day, and I also check in on them via camera. The camera records all movement so I can review every moment of your kitty's day, ensuring they always have fresh food, water, and litterboxes. Camera access is available via the Ring app so you can check in on your kitty throughout their stay. Pet parents will receive professional-quality photos from every visit each day, as well as a 5+ minute video showcasing the highlights of your cat's day. If preferred, I can send clips throughout each day showing the highlights of their vacation in the cottage. Pickup and drop-off are free anywhere within 20 miles of Ina/Thornydale, but please note that I will not assist in finding or catching kitties for pickup. Cat(s) must already be in their carrier or crate at the pickup time scheduled. The standard cancellation policy may apply if your pet is not ready or able to be safely transported to the cottage. The cottage is safely situated behind locked gates on private property, and only accessible for dropoff or pickup with a scheduled appointment. A fee of $10/hour will be charged if pet parents are late for pickup. Circumstances requiring an exception to these stipulations must be discussed prior to booking, otherwise our standard fee and cancellation policies may apply. As for more info about me: I began cat sitting at 6 years old when I offered to feed my next door neighbor's cat lunch and scoop his litter box every weekday in exchange for a jar of dill pickles per week. Since then I have provided routine, kitten and elder care for the feline companions of friends, family and clients. I have 5 cats of my own who live in our main house, and being their Mom is a great source of joy in my life. Each has a unique personality and their own routine with me throughout the day, and I love spoiling them! Booking me will enable you to focus on fun, family or work while away because you have countless Instagram-worthy photos, lengthy high-quality videos and detailed notes from every single drop-in that really highlight the professional level of care your pets are receiving. When you contact me for a booking, I will want to know absolutely anything and everything you can tell me about your pet. Health history, personality, likes, dislikes, quirks, and concerns are especially important! There is no detail too small. There is no other boarding or drop-in sitter experience like this in the greater Tucson area, so book early to ensure your cats' next staycation is absolutely purrfect! If you want your pet to experience social and physical enrichment, genuine TLC, and consistently high quality care then please do book with me as soon as you have your schedule confirmed. From me you can always expect utmost safety and cleanliness, respect of your home and privacy, all requests dutifully followed, enriching playtime, exercise and affection for your pets, multiple high quality videos & pictures sent throughout walk or stay, all dietary and behavioral notes followed to the letter, never a last-minute cancelation or no show, and all health and safety precautions dutifully taken EVERY single time. You will rest easy knowing your pets are in the best hands because I only accept bookings for which I know I can provide the best possible care!

About: I’ve been dog sitting and house sitting for about 4 years now, caring for all kinds of pets from chill, low maintenance dogs to super high-energy ones that need a lot of attention and exercise. I’m very comfortable with daily routines like feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and even giving medications if needed. I’ve also cared for multiple pets at once, so I know how to manage different personalities and keep everything running smoothly. Since I’m active, I make sure dogs actually get real exercise and attention not just the bare minimum. Whether that’s longer walks, play sessions, or just keeping them company, I adjust based on what your pet needs. I also have a lot of experience staying in clients’ homes, so I understand the importance of keeping things clean, secure, and exactly how you left them. I treat both your pets and your home with respect. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels comfortable and you feel completely at ease while you’re away. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m able to give pets a lot of attention throughout the day. I’m active and like being out, so walks, playtime, and check-ins fit naturally into my routine. I’m available most days for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, and I do my best to work around your pet’s normal schedule so everything feels consistent for them. I always treat every home and pet with respect, like it’s my own. I make sure doors are secure, routines are followed, and your pet is always safe and comfortable. I pay attention to details like feeding, behavior, and surroundings so nothing gets overlooked. Whether I’m in your home or stopping by, my goal is to keep things clean, calm, and stress-free for your pet.

FAQs for House Sitting - Avra Valley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Avra Valley on Rover is $36.63 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 761 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Avra Valley. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Avra Valley walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Avra Valley maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

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 Avra Valley 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!

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.

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 .

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Avra Valley. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
