“She’s amazing. She kept me updated on my pups, also if there’s any changes in schedule. Came home to happy pups. Really glad she was there to help us out.”
About: I have been pet sitting/dog walking for many years. My youngest has just graduated high school so I have a very free schedule. I have owned dogs and cats most of my life. I currently have an Irish Wolfhound and a small Pit Bull. I have spent many hours volunteering at the Humane Society and fostering. I am a stay at home mom in Cave Creek. My youngest has just graduated from high school so my schedule is quite free. I am available for drops in’s, walks/hikes, and overnights. I own an Irish Wolfhound and a pitbull mix. I am very active and run daily with my dogs. I am able to take dogs on long walks or hikes. I am comfortable with any size breed. I am respectful of any pet rules/schedules and follow accordingly.
“Jennifer took great care of our pups. She sent photos during every drop off and the dogs genuinely seemed happy to have her. Would definitely book her for the next time we go out of town.”
“We always have a perfectly wonderful experience with Jessica every time we have to go out of town. She takes such good care of our cat and is most dependable. We are most fortunate to be able to work with her.”
About: Hi! I’m Kristy, a reliable and caring dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I’m looking to care for some wonderful pups in my local area during the evenings. My availability is primarily in the evenings, and I’m especially happy to help with evening walks and drop-in visits. My schedule varies every other week, so I keep my Rover calendar updated with the specific evenings I’m available. I’m flexible when I have availability and will always make sure I can give your pup the time and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m dependable, attentive, and will follow your care instructions closely. I’ll make sure your pup is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention during every visit. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. 🐾
“Dallas and I had a great experience with Bianca! When I first reached out she was very easy to communicate with. She did a meet and greet first and Dallas was immediately comfortable with her. She did drop-in visits with him and sent a detailed report and lots of pictures each time. Definitely would book again!”
About: I have 24 years of hands-on pet care experience that has shaped how I approach every pet in my care. I've worked in veterinary hospital and emergency clinic settings, which gave me insight into animal health, behavior under stress, and the importance of following detailed care instructions precisely. That clinical background means I understand the nuances of how pets respond to different situations and how to keep them calm and secure. Beyond pet care, my background in health and wellness, private security, and farming has reinforced core values that directly translate to how I work with your pets: attention to detail, strict adherence to procedures, accountability, and the ability to manage multiple responsibilities simultaneously. These experiences taught me that consistency and reliability aren't optional, they're foundational. I have solid behavioral training experience and can seamlessly maintain whatever training regimen your pet is already on, ensuring continuity and progress while they're in my care. I'm comfortable handling multiple pets at once and can manage moderately complex care situations, though I'm clear about my boundaries, I don't take on intense medical/veterinary tasks. What I do excel at is creating a stable, attentive environment where pets feel secure and owners feel confident their pets are in capable hands. I've structured my schedule to prioritize pet care full-time. This means I'm available to work around your needs and your pet's routine. Whether that's consistent weekly sits, last-minute coverage, or flexible arrangements. I'm selective about the clients I take on, so when we're a good fit, I'm fully committed to providing the level of care your best friend deserves I currently provide in-home care exclusively: drop-in visits for feeding and playtime, sitting services, and overnight stays. Because I'm in your home, I treat it with the same respect and attention I give your pet. I follow your routines precisely: feeding schedules, training methods, house rules, and any special requests you have. Consistency is non-negotiable. Communication is built into everything I do. You'll know what's happening with your pet, and I'm accessible if anything comes up. My background in security and attention to detail means I'm naturally protective, both of your dog's wellbeing and your home. I've completed and cleared my Arizona Centralized background check, so you can have complete peace of mind. I understand that bringing someone into your home to care for your best friend is a significant decision. That's why I take every responsibility seriously, from the smallest detail about your pet's preferences to the security of your space. Your trust is everything.
“First time using Rover Katelyn who took care of my cat Sherbet sent pictures/videos, she was there every day to feed and even play with him. I was so relieved to know he was being taken such good care of! On Christmas, she even brought him some catnip and toys!! Katelyn went above and beyond our expectations, will for sure use again we highly recommend! Thank you !”
“Krista was wonderful with our two tabby’s. They both are usually shy around new people, however her loving energy won them both over immediately. I highly recommend Krista, she went above and beyond caring for our cats.”
About: I’ve had a dog since before I was 10. With the recent passing of our oldest dog, I currently have two dogs - one quiet & small (Gryffin), and one big & rambunctious (Charlie). I love them both dearly! My fiancée also has two dogs that I like to claim as my adopted pets (Presley & Rudy). I’m currently studying for the bar exam (certifying exam for lawyers) and am looking for some cash while I spend 40 hours a week studying as my full time job. This much studying is a lot of work and I’d love to have study companions get me through it! I have had dogs of all different dispositions (e.g., the reserved, the crazy, the explorer, etc.) and have the patience and compassion to love them all and ensure they all get the attention they deserve and need.
“This was my first time using Jennifer to watch my Daisy. I had regular communication and plenty of pictures showing Daisy having a great time. I will be scheduling Jennifer for my next trip.”
About: Hi, I’m Mya! I have a strong passion for animals and have spent the last seven years in 4-H caring for and working with a variety of animals. Through that experience, I’ve learned responsibility, patience, and how to properly care for animals of all personalities and needs. I genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just sitting with them and keeping them company. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away, and I always do my best to give them that same level of care and attention. I have experience with both dogs and cats, and I’m comfortable adjusting to each animal’s routine, energy level, and temperament. Whether your pet needs lots of activity and playtime or prefers a calm, quiet environment, I’m happy to meet their needs. My goal is to provide reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitting so you can have peace of mind knowing your animals are in good hands. I’m currently working part-time. I’ve been in 4-H for 7 years, working with a wide range of animals and people. I can do walks and help with medication I am respectful and can communicate within 24 hours or less. I am a certified equine light therapist and can do anything treatment and therapy you ask
“I searched for the right dog sitter for my English Bulldog Gigi and my little rescue mix Petey. I found Nicholas and was not disappointed! He has a calm, confident demeanor that works well with being a caretaker of dogs. In my instance it helped that he has English Bulldogs himself so he knows that they can be nippy, protective and scrappy. He demonstrated a keen sense of how to interact with Gigi and each visit he made progress with her. His detailed recaps of his visits gave me a great peace of mind while I was away. He is thorough, caring, responsive and trustworthy. He takes care of my dogs as if they were his own. I truly appreciate his ability to take care of my two and am looking forward to continued use of his services. I highly recommend Nicholas to take of your pets!”
“Lyla is the best pet sitter I have ever had. She went above and beyond to take very good care of my cat Alexia for 30 days. My cat is 18 years old, she previously had two seizures about seven months ago, and she had another episode while we were out of town. Lyla, acted very professional and cared really for Alexia. She called me to inform me, she called the Vet clinic, and the emergency pet hospital. She stayed longer with Alexia to make sure she was feeling better after the episode, and she helped her recover and calm down. Lyla, treated my cat and my house with a great respect, Alexia looked cleaned and happy and the house was tidy and clean. I will hire Lyla again and again, she is very nice, professional and reliable. She could literally handle any issues and she is willing to do anything to make your babies happy. Thank you very much Lyla for being such a great person.”
About: I am that girl that takes 20 minutes to leave the house because it takes me so long to say bye to my little friends. I love animals and have been around them my entire life. Grew up with little dogs and am now a cat mom. As a Realtor, my schedule changes from day to day, which gives me flexibility throughout the week. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or some extra attention, I can always find time each day to care for your pet and make sure they’re happy, safe, and well-loved. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise and playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of affection. I’ll also keep their space clean, administer medications if needed (with instructions), and provide regular updates with photos so you know how they’re doing. If I’m caring for a pet in my home, they’ll have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and supervised care. I always pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs to make sure they feel relaxed, secure, and loved while you’re away.
“Ashley & Benjamin were incredible care takers while I was on vacation!! I’m new to Rover and it was very reassuring to know that Kota was being cared for. Ashley was super easy to communicate with and she consistently provided updates, with photos and videos which was great to see! We couldn’t more thankful for the care provided. Thank you!!”
About: I have previous experience with dog/house sitting which include playing/walking, picking up after, feeding pet, & help retrieve mail/packages. I also enjoy just sitting with and making sure your pet is well loved while owners are away. I am currently working a part time job that I have had for 14 months in the restaurant business and am also an athlete, but all those activities range from 3-9 pm for 2 to 3 days a week. I am available early mornings, mid-day, and late nights. I can easily handle pets with love, care, and patience. I love going on walks with dogs and just live being around them. I had a dog throughout my whole childhood who was my best friend but sadly passed away 3 years ago.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Cave Creek is $20

Krista always does a fantastic job taking care of our cat while we are away. She also goes above and beyond when we need special help (while we were way on our last trip, she actually dropped something off for us). She is very pleasant to work with, responsible, responsive, and dependable! We could not ask for a better person to provide care in our absence!
Krista was a dream to work with. She made sure my cats were socialized for the full allotted time and went above and beyond to take care of my babies. I am so thankful Rover led me to find her because I had zero worries while I was gone to Mexico. I will definitely use her services in the future and would recommend her to care for anyone's pets.
Brandon was absolutely amazing with my dog! From the moment we connected, he was professional, responsive, and clearly experienced with pets. He provided regular updates and photos, which really helped put my mind at ease while I was away. My dog came back happy, well-exercised, and clearly well cared for. You can tell Brandon genuinely loves animals and treats them like his own. I’ll definitely be booking with him again—highly recommend!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Cave Creek on Rover is $23.54 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,728 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cave Creek. 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 Cave Creek 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 Cave Creek. On Rover:
- 95% 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.
