“We LOVE Shea! She was absolutely wonderful to work with. She is as pet friendly as one can get, and she is as thoughtful, communicative, & efficient as she was kind. We had some setbacks due to weather and flight delays, and she was able to accommodate us and was not only flexible, but understanding. Which was such a relief. We have a bit of a skiddish furbaby, and Shea immediately got on her level to introduce herself and gave her the time she needed to warm up to her and was not at all put off by her slow to warm tendencies. Our house was cared for, clean and more importantly the pups were loved in our absence. I would highly recommend Shea for anyone who is in need of pet sitting and pet care needs. She was professional and she put us at ease even with the stress of inclement weather and flight delays. Thank you, Shea! We appreciate you. Ruthie & Phoebe miss you already.”

“Tamantha provided exceptional care for both my dogs and my home while I was away. As a first-time Rover user, I was a bit anxious—especially since one of my dogs is 13 and requires special medical attention. Tamantha was incredibly patient, responsive, and consistently positive throughout the entire experience. The peace of mind she gave me was truly priceless. I would absolutely book with her again!”

“Our very anxious beagle warmed up to Nicole very quickly. She stayed with her and kept us updated throughout our time away. This was our first time using Rover and so we were initially not sure what to expect. We did a few meet and greets prior to our leaving and we felt very comfortable with Nicole and her calm presence. She was patient and warm with our dog. We would recommend her to anyone with a dog that needs a lot of extra love and attention. Thank you for watching our dearest little Stella.”

“Markie was wonderful with our 4 rescue dogs that have some behavioral issues! One is blind since birth, so he is very selective who he likes and trusts. He was comfortable with Markie right away during our meet and greet, so that put me at ease. While we were away we received pictures and detailed updates daily. Upon returning home, our house looked just as we left it. Markie washed the sheets and towels that were used and even mopped the floors where the pups chose to not use the doggie door. We were very happy with our house sitting services.”

Jessica was amazing. I’m very picky of who stays in my home and watches my pups while we are away. I couldn’t have asked for a better rover. She gave updates with pictures and anytime I asked a question I got a timely response. The house looks great, my instructions were very long as I’m an anxious dog mom and she followed every routine I listed out! She is great and I will be having her watch them again soon!

The cats were so chill and relaxed when we got home, so I know they were at ease with Alexa. She sent an update message and photos multiple times a day which put me at ease while I was out of town. It's so nice to know that there's no reason to worry when I'm away from my fuzzy ones.

Nicole was great! She was very friendly and attentive during our meet and greet, even with both of my kids being loud and distractive. She sent photos every day which my toddler loved and our animals were well taken care of. My dog has to have a few pills and can be difficult, Nicole was able to get her to take them so my mind was at ease. Nicole left our house in great shape as well which is very appreciated!

My 2 senior pups seemed to enjoy their time with Laura. She seemed to understand them even though they don't adjust very easily to new situations very easily. I felt confident that they were in good hands while I was away. She sent updates and pictures periodically so I was able to feel connected while I was away. She did a good job dealing with them.

Emily is terrific! We were gone for 2 weeks & felt so at ease knowing our dogs were in good hands. She walked our younger pup every morning (despite the heat) because he has a lot of energy to burn, sent regular photos of the doggos snuggling, and left our house so clean. She also sent text updates, which really helped since we were 9 time zones apart. I can’t recommend Emily enough — she went above & beyond, and our dogs were so well cared for.

This was the first time Ariana watched my dog Libby. She took care of Libby in my home. I was so impressed with Ariana‘s great communication, care provided to Libby, and how much she respected my home by leaving it just like I left it. While she was staying at my house, we got a bad storm, and my neighbors tree branch fell on my roof. Ariana took great pictures and informed me right away of what was going on. I was so impressed with Ariana and I will for sure ask her to care for Libby again. Thanks again, Ariana! 💕

This was our first time choosing the house sitting option but we are glad we did. Tamantha followed our instructions (there were many) and took care of all our pets (even fed the stray cat that visits our house). She was responsible and courteous and we were happy to have someone on site while we were away.

FAQs for House Sitting - Gilbert

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Gilbert on Rover is $42.27 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 4,598 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gilbert. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Gilbert walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Gilbert maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

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!

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.

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 .

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gilbert. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
