“Jackie was amazing with my Zuri! Jackie’s communication was excellent and I appreciate her attention to detail to keep Zuri’s routine as consistent as possible. This was my first experience using Rover and I am happy to have found Jackie as my sitter. I will definitely book again!”
“Ari was so kind and considerate. I loved that her house was setup for dogs and they're was a huge space for the dogs to play. Ari touched base with me every day, sent pictures and videos. Izzy had a great time with other dogs Ari was watching. I definitely will use Ari again for future dog sitting. I trust her and her family completely with my dog, Izzy.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Eric‘s dog sitting service! He cared for our puppy, Izzy for 16 days and truly went above and beyond. From daily walks to giving her medicine and making sure she felt safe and comfortable at home, he treated her as if she were his own. Eric‘s home is spotless, welcoming, and perfectly suited for dogs. Izzy was pampered the whole time, and we loved receiving the constant stream of photos and videos that kept us connected while we were away. This with a surprise was the custom-made poop bag pouch with a cutout of Izzy - such a thoughtful gift! We felt completely at ease knowing Izzy was in his care and will absolutely turn to Eric again whenever we need help. Highly recommended!”
“Once again Allie returned home from her staycation with Richard healthy and happy. We are grateful that she is so well cared for and will continue to seek out the Rover services of Richard in the future.”
“Took very good care of our dog Luna while we were away on an extended trip. Sent pictures daily, gave her walks each morning, and kept in communication throughout the trip. I would definitely book with Catherine again.”
“Brook and her family took my pup in for a long weekend and she looked after him as her own. Brook gave me updates of Junior’s stay and put me at ease my entire trip!!! 5 ⭐️ & much 💖!! Thank you!!”
“Michelle and Cyrus were so wonderful with our dogs. They have an excellent set up at the house and in their back yard for the dogs. Michelle was very responsive and attentive. She sent pictures and videos every day which helped ease our minds being away from our babies for a week. They took such great care of our pups and we are so grateful! We highly recommend Michelle and Cyrus.”
“I felt instantly comfortable with this family and was able to go on vacation without a worry. They sent me photos on updates and just to let me know how things were going. I can’t recommend this family more. Their lifestyle and space is perfect. Will definitely use them again!!!”
“Iori service was simply amazing. She sent me updates and pictures without me having to ask. My fur baby has a lot pinned up energy bc he’s not around a lot of dogs or ppl! So he’s extra energetic when he 1st meet a person! Iori, however was able to handle him with ease and was even able to get him to stop pulling when we take him on walks! I will definitely be booking with her again 😊‼️”
“Melissa and her family took great care of my dog. They made sure she had a lot of attention and play time! Melissa also sent updates and pictures so I would know how things were going, helping to not worry about how things were going. I really appreciate the care they gave and recommend them!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Amber! My husband and I recently moved to Arizona from California and had to make a last-minute trip back for a wedding. From the start, Amber was incredibly responsive and flexible. She quickly agreed to a meet and greet, but when bad weather made that difficult, she was happy to do a video call instead, which I really appreciated. I have two Boston Terriers, one is a playful one-and-a-half-year-old, and the other is seven with some health issues. I explained everything to Amber, and she was not only understanding but very willing to accommodate my older pup's needs. She followed my instructions carefully and was genuinely caring with both dogs. Throughout their stay, Amber sent regular updates and photos, and anytime I had a question or reached out, she responded within the hour. It was such a relief knowing my dogs were in good hands. They both had an absolute blast, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Amber again!”
“Super sweet couple! We were concerned about leaving our new rescue pup, but they sent pics and sweet words every day and made us feel very comfortable that she was in the right place!”
“Camille was great and took excellent care of Aria! It always causes a little anxiety for us leaving our dog behind when we travel but Camille sent us plenty of pictures and helped ease our stress! Would highly recommend using her and will definitely re-book in the future!”
“Sara took good care of Hermee for almost a week while we were out of town. We enjoyed getting the pictures showing him having a good stay. We will be happy to have Sara watch him again if the need arises.”
“Andrea is an absolute Super Star! We have used Rover several times and she has been the most wonderful and caring person to ever take care of our Fur Baby! For those of you who want your sitter to only have one client at a time, search no further than Andrea! She is the Angel for which you seek!”
“Macy was in great care and Pamela kept in contact with me over concerns about Macy not feeling well. Macy ended up being fine, but her communication with what was going on was much appreciated! Would definitely love to bring Macy back.”
“Su and her family were so good to our Finnley! They were very attentive and loving. Su shared daily updates which made us feel good about the care our dog was receiving. I would definitely highly recommend Su!!!”
“Kim was amazing and I can’t thank her enough! Our regular sitter had to cancel on us and she took in our three dogs (including our 1 yo puppy) after a meet a great at the last minute. She was very patient and understanding with our puppy and his potty training challenges (aka accidents) and took care of our elderly dogs like they were her own. So very happy we found Kim and would not only recommend but would book again in an instant if she will have us! :)”

Dylan was great watching our baby for the first time. He was excellent at communicating and sending photos/updates. Our girl loved his home and felt very comfortable right away at our meet and greet, then again when we brought her over for our week stay. We would absolutely use Dylan again!
Kelly came highly recommended from a friend and did not disappoint. She communicated quickly, was friendly and professional, and sent pictures daily (some of the best photographs of any Rover pet sitter we've used). Our golden had an amazing time and was well taken care of... I swear he looked disappointed when we showed up and he realized he had to leave. Thank you, Kelly!

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.

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.
