“Bob and Valerie are our go-to when we are leaving town! Our 2 dogs get so excited when we turn on their street, and they are so reliable. Thanks for taking such great care of our pups!”
“Kim and Deanna are truly amazing. They took such good care of our fur babies when we went on vacation for a week. They would send daily photo or video updates at the perfect time, as I missed our dogs and was so glad to see how happy they were. I would 100% be rebooking in the future. Oh and the icing on the cake was they made a photo collage of the pups and printed them out for us as a keepsake. You ladies are amazing. Thank you!”
“Michael was great at communicating with us. He sent us pictures of our dog playing and help me not feel so guilty about leaving our dog. When we picked up our dog after 4 days stay you could tell he was well kept and happy. I would not hesitate asking Mike to watch our dog again.”
“She’s awesome!! she helped us out when we needed a sitter last minute and was so accommodating and communicative we felt so great having her watch our dog and she was able to help us when we needed another night! Definitely recommend her!”
“This was the first time Heidi watched Athena and she did a wonderful job! They clicked right away. Heidi is such a sweet person and a true dog lover. Athena took to Heidi like she knew her for ever. When I came to pick Athena up she acted like she was in no hurry to go. I will diffidently be using Heidi again. Thanks Heidi, you did a great job, Athena loved you.”
“Savanah took great care of my pup Roxy. She provided updates throughout her stay, took her on walks, and got her some play time with other pups! My girl was so happy when I picked her up. I would definitely have her watch my pup again!”
“Tatiana has been a great sitter for my dog for drop-in visits and boarding. She has been accommodating of any changes, and always provides updates and pictures. She has been great with my dog who can sometimes be a handful- would definitely recommend.”
“Alicia was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs while we were away on vacation! One of our dogs is pretty skittish and nervous around new people, so we were a little worried about how she would do, but both dogs did incredibly well with Alicia and her family. It was such a relief knowing they were comfortable, happy, and well cared for while we were gone. Alicia was also great about sending us pictures and daily updates, which gave us so much peace of mind and made being away much easier. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dogs and treated them like her own. We’re so grateful to Alicia and her family for taking such great care of our pups and giving them so much love and attention while we were away. Thank you so much, Alicia! We truly appreciate everything you did and would absolutely trust you with our dogs again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and reliable sitter! 🙏❤️”
“Lissandra was a godsend during our recent trip. She kept Prince comfortable and happy and sent multiple pictures and updates multiple times a day. Her communication was so reassuring and Prince truly enjoyed his stay. We fully intend to use her in the future. If you’re considering booking her, know that your pet will be in great hands.”
“Sajwa & Jason were so caring and sweet with our dog. They were kind, attentive and sent lots of video and updates. I would use them again for my sitter and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her as a great sitter for others.”
“Alex was great! Unfortunately I had to book someone last minute and being new to the area I didn’t really know who to contact. Luckily Alex was able to confirm his availability quickly during a holiday weekend. He even sent some pictures while we were gone and my dog seemed in great spirits when I picked him up. Just a great experience overall. Thank you Alex!”
“I had a great experience! I got updates and pictures of my dog the whole stay and I will definitely be booking again ! I really appreciate the time and attention that was given thanks again 😊”
“Kelly was amazing! She was able to take my dog Toby on short notice and treated him like her own. She communicated daily and sent lots of pictures. We sent Toby with food but unfortunately we didn't send him with enough. She went out of her way to get more . She is a genuinely nice person and asked the right questions to make sure Toby was as comfortable and happy as can be. I would definitely use her again in the future. Thank you Kelly!”
“Kristin was absolutely great . This was my first time leaving my Bruno baby with someone while I went on vacation to Mexico with my husband and she definitely eased my nerves . She sent many updates/pics throughout my whole trip. I can definitely tell she loves animals and this is more than just a job to her . I will definitely use her again. Thank you so much for the great care to my fur baby.”
“I would like to tell an unbelievable story. Mya has been a great part of my dog family. To make a long story shorter .... I did not know my Angel was pregnant until Tuesday and I took all thee of my dogs to Myra's house. The following Monday Myra messaged me by phone and by way of "DOGVACY". She delivered four beautiful puppies! She was wonderful. ( I really thought I had at least six weeks )when I returned from my trip the mom and pups were snuggled in a suitcase only Myra would have come up with such an ingenious plan. I love my dog family and their dog whisperer. Myra really does know exactly what to do. My word of thanks does not even come close.”
“We LOVE Brittany! She was super understanding of our last minute request, and had excellent communication. The second that she open the door Sake went right up to her and her tail was going a mile a minute she was so happy. She has a super cute small dog that was sweet and didn't mind having a new friend to play with. Brittany sent multiple pictures, which made me so elated! Getting to see how much fun your dog is having allows you to be able to focus on work and not feel bad that your pug is lonely. Thank you so much! We will be calling her regularly!”
“I was very comfortable leaving her with Briana for some reason, my dog just went straight to her and just like she felt comfortable. Briana made me feel comfortable. She sent me pictures and updates and I really appreciate it. I will leave my dog with her again if I have to do something like this ever again.”

Francesca provided outstanding care for our 3 pups! Everyday she sent lovely photos (better than I can take) & feedback about how they were doing! She fed & gave meds on schedule, took them for walks & ball throws, they had a BLAST!! When one of them hurt her paw, she let me know & kept me apprised of its progress. Your pups will love being with Francesca & her two dogs. We are 100% satisfied with the customer service we received and plan to request her anytime we need to board our dogs.
I honestly cannot express how grateful I am to have found John! After years of struggling to find a reliable sitter who genuinely understands the individual needs of my three rescue dogs, I was beginning to wonder if I’d ever find the right fit. When my original sitter unexpectedly broke her leg just two days before my scheduled trip, I found myself scrambling to find someone I could trust with my girls. Each of them has a very different personality, background, and social temperament, so finding someone patient, understanding, and willing to care for only one client’s pets at a time was especially important to me. Somehow, with less than 24 hours’ notice, I found John, and I couldn’t be more thankful that I did! From our very first interaction, he was incredibly kind and accommodating. I ended up arriving a couple of hours later than planned because of all the last-minute chaos, and he couldn’t have been more understanding. When I arrived, I was immediately impressed with his home and the surrounding neighborhood. It’s a beautiful, spacious, welcoming environment with plenty of room for the girls to explore, relax, and play. The large backyard was an added bonus, and I could already tell they were going to enjoy themselves. As someone who tends to be a bit of a helicopter dog mom (okay, maybe more than a bit, lol!), being comfortable with where my girls would be staying made a huge difference. Throughout their stay, John sent me daily updates and photos, which I genuinely looked forward to receiving. He took all THREE girls on walks together every day, which is impressive in itself, lol! They had plenty of opportunities to enjoy the backyard, were allowed to roam freely throughout his home, and were even welcomed onto his beautiful cream-colored couch! I’ll admit, seeing my black dogs on that couch initially had me a little nervous, but John didn’t seem the least bit concerned. He genuinely enjoyed having them around and even told me how entertaining and well-behaved they were. Monster apparently discovered a new favorite pastime, too—jumping into his Jacuzzi! Hearing about her daily adventures absolutely made my day. What meant even more to me, though, was how attentive John was to their individual needs. Monster has separation anxiety because of her difficult past, and I had explained how important it was to give her some extra exercise and attention before leaving her alone. John took that advice seriously and made sure she had additional walks and activity before he left for his recreational sports league. The girls were never left alone for more than two or three hours, and he reported having no issues whatsoever with any of them. Knowing that he listened to my concerns and made an effort to keep them comfortable meant so much to me. Then, about halfway through my trip, I realized I’d accidentally booked their stay one day shorter than I actually needed. John was incredibly gracious about keeping them the additional day, and when an unexpected highway accident delayed my return even further, he was just as understanding about our later pickup. At no point did he make me feel like I was inconveniencing him, even though I know the scheduling changes weren’t ideal. What really stayed with me, though, was how the girls behaved when I finally picked them up. Normally, after being away from me, our reunions are incredibly chaotic. They’re so overwhelmed with excitement that I usually have to greet them individually just to settle everyone down. This time was different. They were absolutely happy to see me and excited to head home, but there was also this noticeable calmness about them that I honestly don’t think I’ve ever experienced after leaving them with a sitter. It’s difficult to explain, but seeing them so relaxed and content gave me a tremendous sense of reassurance about how comfortable they must have felt during their stay. And for someone who has spent years worrying about finding the right person to care for them, that feeling is priceless. John provided so much more than a safe place for my girls to stay. He gave them attention, affection, freedom to be themselves, and a comfortable environment where their individual needs were respected. His communication was wonderful, his flexibility was greatly appreciated, and his rates were more than reasonable, especially considering the level of care he provided. I know how difficult it can be to find someone you genuinely trust with your pets, particularly when they have unique personalities or special needs, and I don’t take finding someone like John for granted. If you’re another overly protective pet parent who considers your dogs family, I would absolutely recommend him. I went into this trip feeling anxious about leaving my girls with someone new, and came home feeling like I’d finally found someone I could confidently leave them with again. John, thank you so much for your patience, kindness, hospitality, and for treating Monster, Ruby, and Ari with such care. We truly appreciate everything you did, and I’m already looking forward to booking with you again! ❤️🐾
Megan was so sweet and communication with her about care for my Ollie was genuine and easy. She sent pictures throughout the day and provided me with updates about his meals daily. I would definitely recommend her to watch your fur babies and I plan on having her care for mine again in the future!
Leanna & Berlin B. took an excellent care of my dog, Trixie, during my vacation. I was given daily reports and I could see that Trixie was looking happier as time went by. I strongly recomment Leanna & Berlin if you need to have someone take care of your loved one while you are away.
Kim is amazing! My dog isn't the easiest dog to deal with and is was her first time being away from me. But she handled her very well and sent me pics and videos to let me know how she was doing, which made me feel less stressed. I have highly recommend using her! Thanks, Kim!
Jennifer was amazing with my 2 pups. She was prompt when replying to the potential last minute booking as my family could not assist with care during this trip. She was fabulous at sending update photos of their activities. They were truly safe with her and they showed it upon my return. Tilly knew it was time to go home and made her way over giving Jenn a hug and kiss goodbye, her way of saying thank you and I love you! Impeccable care and love given during my time away. Jenn is gold!
Tammy was very responsive and helpful as I looked for a temporary home for my aunt's dog. Pearl obviously felt very comfortable with Tammy and Lola which showed in the several photos that were shared. I would arrange a stay with Tammy again. She provides a friendly home away from home.

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 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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AZ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
