“Thank you for taking such great care of my beagle, Rocket multiple times! It means so much to have someone I can trust with him, and knowing he was in good hands gave me peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciate the care and attention you gave him. I’d happily book again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter!”
“Alex did an excellent job dealing with our dogs that have never been left for this long. The relationship started kind of tough but by the end the dogs loved her. We will have her back again if she is available.”
“Trinity was phenomenal with our dogs. Handled meds, food, and played to keep them from being overly bored while we were away. We work from home, so our dogs are rarely alone, making trips tough on them. They were noticeably more content when we returned than they have been after prior trips. Cannot recommend her enough.”
About: I’ve always loved spending time with animals! I grew up with several dogs and cats and helped with potty training and teaching our dogs fun tricks. As an adult, I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for many friends, family members, and neighbors. I’ve cared for puppies, energetic young dogs, and senior dogs, so I’m comfortable with all ages and personalities. I’m also comfortable with giving medicine or ear drops if needed. I love walking and running, so I’d be happy to give your pup some exercise and attention while you’re away! I have a special place in my heart for bunnies, too. I have a spoiled, free-roam 3-year-old bunny of my own. I’m happy to care for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and turtles. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own! 🤎 I currently have a very flexible schedule. I’ve been a stay at home mom for a little while and now my daughters are both in school. I’m available for morning, afternoon or evening drop ins or walks! If it’s an evening drop in, my daughters would love to come along with me occasionally and play with your pets as well, if that is something you’re comfortable with. I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow all instructions provided by the pet parent, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure pets are safe and comfortable throughout my visit. I’m respectful of the home, keep things clean and tidy, and always make sure everything is secure before I leave. I’m happy to send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!
“This was my first usage of the Rover App and it won't be my last. Emma was friendly, professional, prompt, efficient, and effective. Don't let her rates mislead you into thinking you are getting less of a service. I highly recommend her and will utilize her services in the future. Great job and Thank you!”
“Jessica was amazing! She was so accommodating when the app didn’t update my new address, and sent plenty of pics and updates! An amazing choice since I had to change my flight home last minute. She really cares about the wellbeing of your fur-babies 🐾 will definitely re-book with her in the future!”
“I reached out to Jennifer as a last minute booking forbmy cmvacation when my regular pet sitter had an emergency and couldnt watch my place. She was quick to respond and set up a meeting right away. She was very thoughtful and attentive to my cat. I appreciated the updates and photos.”
“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!”
“Lance is a good communicator who responded quickly to messages and sent photos of his visits with our dog. He’s also great at delivering on special instructions. Would definitely rebook again.”
About: I am happy to offer SAME-DAY booking requests! 😊 Hi, my name is Mackenzie, and I’d love to care for your pets. I grew up on a ranch surrounded by animals, including dogs, cats, horses, and cattle. I’ve even owned nine guinea pigs at once! I have experience caring for puppies, kittens, senior dogs and cats, following strict dietary regimens, administering medications, and much more. I’m also a dog parent myself to Juniper, my playful one-year-old French Bulldog who follows a specific feeding schedule and playtime routine, so I understand the importance of providing consistent, attentive care. I have a lifelong love for animals and would love to provide your pets with the same love, attention, and care I give my own! I am home full time so my schedule is very flexible to provide pet care services throughout the week. My dog is very kind and would love new friends to play with for doggy daycare as well! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I will follow their usual routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding on schedule, fresh water, potty breaks, walks/playtime, and lots of attention and affection. I also make sure the home stays clean and safe, including cleaning up after pets (litter box, poop pick-up, and even the occasional accidents, if necessary). If your pet takes medication or has special care instructions, I’m happy to follow those as well. In addition, I have experience in the medical field, so I know how to administer medications properly. I will always communicate with you via message and provide updates through photos daily so you feel confident that your pets are happy and well cared for.
“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.”
About: I've had animals since before I could walk! I grew up caring for four dogs and four cats - Yes, it was full house! I know what it's like having to leave your favorite furry friend with a stranger, but I can assure you this is not a job for me, but truly a passion. I will love your animal as if they were my own and I can't wait to start! I have experience in training puppies to not only become house trained, but also do some super fun tricks - Like roll over or dance/spin. I work from home, so I am able to be here around the clock for your animals needs. If that means more potty breaks for the still-in-training pup, then so be it! My weekends are often open and I love getting to care for animals overnight when I have the chance. I talk to animals like they are people! Of course caring for your animal will depend on their needs and what you let me know about them.
“Brooke is amazing! If I didn't know any better Id say Brooke had adopted my dog as her own! I'm happy to know that when Brooke is around my dog Kira is safe, happy and has all the love in the world that she deserves. Brooke is always eager to schedule visits and care for my pet, she has even involved her whole family to help! Im so lucky I found her and she is now part of our family. ❤️. Brooke would be a blessing to have as your Rover!!!”
“Melissa is great and cares about animals. My shy dog felt comfortable with her as she has a calm demeanor. We will definitely book her for more visits and stays while we are away.”

You are the BEST dog-sitter EVER! The pictures, the notes, ALL the LOVE you show them, I am truly grateful for you and what you do to bring joy and comfort to my boys and the reassurance you’ve given me. Sad to go, but I know you will continue to be the absolute best to many more beautiful pups out there. It’s good to know you are out there taking great care in all of our beloved companions. Thank you from the bottom of all our hearts 💕. All the best, Jenn, Picasso, and Remmy
Susan was wonderful with our cats. She took good care of them and sent regular updates and photos which we appreciated. She was also able to resolve an issue with our cat feeder that came up, and contacted us promptly. We appreciate the kind note and treats she left for our cats also. Highly recommend!
Shea is wonderful! She is very communicative, takes excellent pictures (I always looked forward to her Rover Cards), and sends thorough updates, which truly puts my mind at ease while we’re gone. All three cats and the house were well taken care of and we are looking forward to seeing Shea again next month!
Julissa is the epitome of what I was looking for in someone to care for my dog while Im not home. She is kind, super professional, responsive and on time. She took perfect control of my dog right from the start, asking all the right questions, and took her on a walk during our meet and greet. I cannot recommend her enough, if I could, Id give 10 stars!!
Tahlia was amazing with Luna! She was attentive, punctual, communicative, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving Luna in her care. Luna absolutely loved her, which says everything. I really appreciated how dependable and caring she was throughout the entire experience. Tahlia will definitely be my preferred Rover sitter moving forward, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and great with their dog!
This was my first usage of the Rover App and it won't be my last. Emma was friendly, professional, prompt, efficient, and effective. Don't let her rates mislead you into thinking you are getting less of a service. I highly recommend her and will utilize her services in the future. Great job and Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Gilbert is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 6,693 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gilbert. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Gilbert. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
