“Jennifer goes above and beyond with every visit, not just doing her duties but making sure our pets are happy, safe and healthy. She's also so helpful with any other requests we gave. Amazing job!”
“The cats seemed happier and less stressed this trip. Appreciated extra help with bringing in a package and garbage can without being asked. She sent pictures of all 3 kittys in some of their favorite but hard to find hiding places, even under our bed. Instead of leaving the keys under the front door mat where someone might find them before we got home, she messaged me she'll drop them off when we're home. I would highly recommend Kylee if you're looking for someone who gives the best pet care but who also cares about things not necessarily expected of her.”
“Kate was great with our pups! This was our first time using Rover and we felt very comfortable with her. She was easy to get ahold of, replied quickly, lefts us wonderful updates and photos of our dogs! Very trustworthy and will be using again in the future! ❤️”
“Kristina is first rate! She listened to our pups needs and went over and beyond to show them love. She played with them, shared a photo, and gave them extra care during her visit. I will definitely use her again.”
“Courtney is absolutely incredible! Our fur girls absolutely adored her and immediately went to her for cuddles and treats! If you are looking for someone who your pets will immediately connect with, Courtney is the pet sitter for you! She is friendly, a wonderful communicator and gives the best daily updates and photos ever!!! We are so grateful to have found her and look forward to our next adventure knowing that our girls will be well cared for”
About: Hello! I am a pet lover who grew up with Boston terriers for 20+ years. I also grew up working with dogs (Border Collies) on ranches, working side by side on various tasks. Because of my experience and comfort with dogs, I have been dog-sitting for friends and family my whole life. I have some experience caring for cats, including my sisters' and friends' cats (5+ years). I am very active and can exercise or entertain your pet with play or runs. I have rarely met a dog I couldn't build trust with. I am working a full-time position at the University of Arizona. I am free from 5 a.m. to 8 a.m., 12 p.m. to 1 p.m., and 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. on weekdays. I have full availability on weekends. I ensure to follow all the rules the pet owner has established. I will use commands and language the dog is familiar with to avoid confusion. I make sure the pets are exercised 2-3 times a day. Cleaned and brushed if needed. I am mindful of water intake and make sure that all pets are kept on their usual schedule.
“Alexis did a great job. Plenty of pictures of the dogs and when I returned there was great note with little Polaroids of them, which was a nice touch. Really appreciated it.”
“Wonderful and always communicated and sent pictures. Have already rebooked with her. Cant say thanks enough for her willingness to drive to a decent remote area of Arizona to help with my dog and cat. It takes a lot of stress off regarding my busy schedule.”
About: I have had pets all my life, and have been fostering with PACC (Pima Animal Care Center, a local animal shelter), for almost 12 years now. I have extensive experience with cats of all ages, dogs from puppies to seniors including extra experience with large and giant breed dogs, and many reptiles including bearded dragons, geckos, snakes, and more. I love animals and love keeping up to date with new science and research on their their health, behavior, and best practices for their care and training. I also have taken the Red Cross pet first aid course in addition to my years of experience working with medical cases with my fosters and my own medically complicated pets. I work full-time, but because I am at a bakery I am out by late morning to mid-afternoon at the latest so I generally have all afternoon and evening to spend with your pets. I have a fenced yard for my own Great Dane mix rescue. He is excellent with cats, and with careful introductions is friendly with other dogs. I have cats of my own that have free roam of the house, but I do have a room kept separate that I use for quarantine and kitten and cat fostering so they have their own space away from the other animals.
“We used alternating "day-care" and "drop-in" for the last 3 weeks. Kaitlynn is very responsive, always on time, and taking very good care of our dog. Pictures and notes follow immediately after a visit or the whole day stay. Our dog is happy meeting his new and old friends weekly.”

About: I've been house-sitting and dog-sitting for families in my neighborhood since I was a teenager, and it's something I've always genuinely enjoyed. Over the years, I've built lasting relationships with both pets and their owners, and many people continue to trust me because they know I'm reliable, responsible, and attentive. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so I do my best to make sure every dog feels comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away. As a pet owner myself, I have three cats and a dog, so I understand the level of care, patience, and attention that pets need every day. Whether that means sticking to their routine, going on walks, playing, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet like they're part of my own family. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease and know they're in caring, trustworthy hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have pets of my own and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I currently work part-time as a nanny on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 9 AM to 3 PM, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive care before and after work, as well as throughout the rest of the week. As the owner of three cats and a dog, caring for animals is already a big part of my daily life. I'm used to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box maintenance, and making sure pets get the attention and companionship they need. Whether your pet prefers lots of activity or a calm, comforting presence, I have the time and flexibility to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I always strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet in my care. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel at ease. I have a fully fenced backyard, which provides a secure area for dogs to get exercise, play, and enjoy time outside under supervision. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I tailor my care to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. My goal is to ensure that pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for, whether they're staying with me or I'm caring for them in their own home.
About: I grew up on a farm, surrounded by animals of all kinds from energetic puppies to senior dogs, barn cats, and even livestock. That experience taught me how to read animal behavior, respond calmly in unexpected situations, and provide gentle, consistent care. I also picked up a lot of practical skills, including how to support animals through stress, illness, or injury. Whether your dog needs extra patience, a structured routine, or just some good old-fashioned love and playtime, I’ve got them covered. I truly understand animals and I treat every pet like part of the family. Caring for animals has always been part of my everyday life. Whether it’s early morning walks, playtime, or keeping a routine for feeding and medication, I naturally build my day around what pets need. I’m used to adjusting my schedule to fit each animal’s routine whether it’s a puppy who needs extra attention or a senior dog who needs a slower pace. Pet care isn’t just a task for me it’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to every day. I follow each pet’s routine closely whether I’m in my home or yours. That includes feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs like meds or crate training. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in a clean and calm environment.
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind for as long as I can remember. I would walk them, play with them, and feed them. I’m currently working part time as a caregiver but I have plenty of free time and availability to come take care of your animals even if it’s last minute I currently live in an apartment but if you have a backyard or even an opened backyard I’ll always make sure your pet is on their leash or has eyes on them at all times. Even if you live in an apartment I’ll make sure they have their leash on and are being well cared for
“Cris was fantastic! Professional, caring and attentive. She bought Bon-bon toys, sent me pics of them playing together and it was wonderful to know my treasured pet (family member) was in such good care while I was away. Thank you Cris and you’ll be our first call in the future 😻😊”
About: As a lifelong dog owner with a genuine passion for canine companions, I offer personalized care that goes beyond the basics. I create custom routines based on your dog's unique needs—whether they require special diets, specific exercise, or simply extra cuddle time. My fenced yard provides a safe space for supervised play, and I send daily photo updates so you can see your happy pup enjoying their stay. I limit myself to caring for only one family's dogs at a time to ensure focused attention. With years of experience handling dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, I understand that each pet has distinct personality traits. When your dog stays with me, they're not just a client—they're part of my family. "While I work full-time Monday through Thursday at the office, I work from home on Fridays and have weekends completely free. This schedule allows me to provide attentive care for your dog during weekend getaways, with drop-offs available Thursday evenings through Sunday/Monday mornings. Your pup will receive consistent, dedicated attention throughout their stay." "I offer a secure, fully-fenced backyard where your dog can safely explore and play under my supervision.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Avra Valley is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $26 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 1,051 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Avra Valley. 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.

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.
