About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember! I am new to the Rover community but I am not new to loving on the pups as I have committed myself to learning the best ways to adapt and give the best care for them. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs, I will dedicate my time to loving them (which is SO easy for me to do). I would be honored to take them to a dog park where they can also interact with the other puppers while you’re away! While I have had dogs of all sizes my entire life, I do not have any dogs of my own at the moment. This means I am full of energy and love to give to you and yours! I currently work from home part time so I have lots of time and love to give! This is intentional as I would like to spend more of time around the doggos. I am mostly available M-F but can be available on the weekends as needed, spending time with your pup is something I look forward to! My apartment has a dog park for both small and big dogs, as well as a full park just down the street. I do not own a crate of my own at the moment but I am able to set up their home crate in my space if needed.
“Leslie took exceptional care of my cat, Sunny, while I was on vacation. From the beginning, she was reliable, professional, and genuinely caring. What I appreciated most were the regular updates and photos she sent, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to see that Sunny was happy, comfortable, and well cared for every day. I highly recommend Leslie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Hannah was great! Friendly, nice, and overall very easy to communicate with. We had no worries leaving our fur baby at home while we went on vacation as he was left in good care with Hannah. Definitely would recommend!”
“Once again we asked Betty to care of our cat and she did a wonderful job. We always feel good knowing Oliver is in good hands with Betty when we can’t be there to take care of him ourselves.”
“Kristine & Michael were great ! All around highly recommend - super sweet with with my pup, responsive & timely, and had open communication throughout my time away. I felt comfortable with their care and would rebook again next time.”
“Markie was dependable and really took time to interact with our cats. They really seemed to like her, which is rare for our little curmeowdgeons. We will definitely ask her to come by the next time we go out of town!”
“Nicole did a wonderful job taking care of my two older dogs while I was away for over a week. She walked them twice a day, gave them their daily medications, and spoiled them with lots of love! 💕 I highly recommend her to care for your fur babies! 🐶 🐾”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats all of my life and have spent the last two years regularly caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication schedules, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and committed to giving pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. Pet care fits well into my schedule, allowing me flexibility for drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays. I pride myself on being reliable and punctual, and I work hard to accommodate pet owners’ schedules whenever possible. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I understand that pets are happiest when their normal schedule is maintained, so I carefully follow feeding instructions, exercise routines, medication schedules, and any special requests. I always keep owners updated with photos and messages during each visit, and I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. My goal is to provide dependable care and give you complete peace of mind while you’re away
“Susan was fantastic! Her communication was great, and she was perfectly on time for every single visit. We absolutely loved the thorough reports she left after each visit. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing our cat was being so well taken care of while we were gone. We will definitely be booking Susan again!”
“Kayla is always THE BEST. We would not be able to travel to see family without her and our Emma absolutely adores her. She is one of her favorite people now 🤗 (and one of ours too!)”
“Ariana was amazing and communicative! She gave me total peace of mind on my recent trip, went above and beyond helping with things at the house, and took excellent care of my cat. 5 stars. Thank you!!”
About: Short summary: I am a certified dog trainer that carries exceptional insurance to make sure your dog gets a loving, safe, and peaceful visit in a large home. Long Version: My home is a spacious two-story house designed with your dog's safety, comfort, and enjoyment in mind. The entire first floor is dedicated to providing a safe, enriching boarding experience where dogs can freely explore indoors rather than being confined to kennels. Safety is a top priority. All exterior doors are equipped with automatic closing springs to reduce the risk of doors being accidentally left open, and indoor gates allow me to separate dogs when needed. This setup helps create appropriate play groups, provides quiet spaces for dogs who prefer more privacy, and ensures every guest receives individualized care. With experience walking, boarding, providing daycare, and training hundreds of dogs, I understand that every dog has unique needs and personalities. Whether your dog loves social play, prefers a calm environment, or requires additional structure and guidance, I can tailor their stay accordingly. For additional peace of mind, I carry pet care insurance and maintain high standards of supervision, safety, and cleanliness. My goal is to provide a professional, trustworthy experience where your dog is treated like part of the family while you're away. Rest assured, your dog will rarely be left alone in our home! I have a very hybrid work schedule and am usually present to provide continued companionship for your furry friend. Our commitment to your dog's well-being goes beyond just scheduled check-ins – we prioritize a consistent and loving presence throughout the day. Your pet will enjoy the warmth of human interaction, playtime, and comforting company, creating an environment that mimics the familiarity and comfort of their own home. Choose us, and your dog will experience significant attention and care from a family that is always there for them. In our two-story haven, your dog is not just a guest but an integral part of our family life. We provide unrestricted access to all the inviting accommodations downstairs, ensuring your furry friend can explore and find cozy spots to relax. Additionally, our commitment to your dog's well-being extends to a private doggy yard, offering immediate access for quick potty breaks or moments of solitude. But that's not all – we believe in the joy of outdoor play and sunshine! We've dedicated scheduled time for your dog to revel in the larger walled yard. This ensures not just exercise but also a chance for them to bask in the open air, fostering a healthy and happy environment. Choose us for a dog-sitting experience that combines indoor comfort with ample outdoor adventures tailored to your pet's needs.
About: I've been caring for animals my entire life, growing up with both cats and dogs and learning the importance of providing consistent, loving care. Throughout college, I pet sat for families while they were away on weekend trips, caring for pets in their own homes and maintaining their regular routines. I also worked as a nanny for families with multiple pets, where caring for dogs and cats was a natural part of my daily responsibilities. I'm comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy looking after a beloved family member. 🐾 I work a full-time job remotely from home, which gives me a flexible and structured schedule throughout the day. I’m an early riser by nature and like to stay active and on the move, so I’m usually up early and comfortable handling morning responsibilities like feeding, walks, litter care, or check-ins before starting my workday. Because I travel throughout the Phoenix Valley for work and errands, I’m already very familiar with driving routes and am able to reliably get to pet visits in the early mornings or evenings. Even though I work from home, I’m rarely sitting still—I prefer being active, getting outside, and staying busy. Pet care is a perfect fit for me because it gets me out of the house, lets me spend time with animals (which I genuinely miss having around), and fits naturally into my routine before 8 AM or after 6 PM. I’m very consistent, punctual, and used to managing responsibilities on a tight schedule, so I’m confident pets will get dependable, loving care every visit. My home environment is calm, clean, and organized, and I understand how important routine and stability are for animals. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening check-ins, I treat every visit like a priority and make sure pets feel safe, cared for, and comfortable while their owners are away.
About: We have taken care of all sorts of animals for many years. The more the merrier.

Hi, Im Kari in live on a mini farm in Gilbert with my 4 kids (13-22), 2 of whom still live at home full time and 2 who bounce from home to college. I spend most of my time at home with my kids and animals....2 dogs of our own, 3 goats (in pen), and 15 chickens (in coop). I have about an acre with a fenced yard and, with in that, multiple fenced areas. We are happy welcome your dog(s) to our mini farm.
“Lindsay takes super good care of my 18.5year old grumpy cat. He doesn't like many people, but she makes him feel comfortable and does a great job of getting him to take his meds without it being a stressful ordeal (very few cat-sitters have been able to gain his trust so well). I recommend her services to anyone nervous about leaving their furbaby alone.”
“Michelle was amazing, I wasn’t sure how to go about using this app, and she reached out to me to get everything started. We met up the same day and I gave her a walkthrough of my routine. She took fantastic care of my pets and updated me on everything, and took better pictures of my pets than I could ever take. I am grateful for the initiative that she took and the care she took for my pets!”
“Kameron was awesome with our doggo. We could tell in every photo, our dog was ecstatic and so so happy. Kameron was diligent about communication and was very upfront and honest, we felt like our dog was safe in her hands. Not to mention, Kameron came in clutch last min when our other dog sitter bailed on us 1 day before our flight out. That peace of mind means a lot thank you Kameron.”

We absolutely love having Ally & Joey care for our two dogs! They do such a great job keeping them active, entertained, and giving them plenty of attention. By the time the visit is over, both dogs are completely worn out and happily rest until their next visit! It’s obvious how much they genuinely care about our dogs, and we always feel confident knowing they’re getting lots of love, exercise, and attention. Our dogs get so excited to see them, and we couldn’t be happier with their care. We highly recommend Ally & Joey!
I have a super chill elderly cat named Layla and a doggy named Penny (Princess Penelope Lane) who is scared of her own shadow, and anyone who's not her family is automatically labeled as "stranger danger." I've never seen Penny take food or pets from someone other than us, but Jessica is a true animal whisperer who's more than able. There's nothing better than receiving consistent pictures and updates while outside of the country and knowing my furry little girls and house are safe in Jessica's capable hands. We plan on looking for a new puppy to bring into the family soon, and I look forward to asking for Jessica's help in caring for them in the future. Thank you so much Jessica 😆
Susan was excellent! When she came to meet Strider she brought a clip board and took plenty of notes. After her visit we returned home to find a very happy Strider and Susan even left a note for us in paper saying how good he was and how much she appreciated our business. Any pet owner would be lucky to have Susan watch their pet!
Kiersten was beyond amazing! This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely be asking for her help again:) Kiersten went out of her way to set up a meet-and-greet with our two dogs before she started dogsitting. She took great care of them, was always on time, and was extremely responsive to our messages. We felt no stress and knew our pups were in great hands. Thank you, Kiersten! So excited to have you help again soon!
Simon was great with my pup, Jack. He came by for a meet and greet, and I immediately trusted him. I knew Jack was in good hands, and Simon reassured me of this on each of his visits. I returned home to find an happy dog and everything else as I left it. I highly recommend Simon; I will be using him again.
Lindsey was a God send. She provided great service and great communication. It made our trip enjoyable and at ease knowing our precious pets are receiving great care. She did more for us than just care for our pets. Lindsey is reliable. We greatly appreciate and highly recommend her!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Gilbert stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.
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 Gilbert 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!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Gilbert with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
