“Absolutely the BEST dog sitter ever! Reliable, friendly, responsible and my dog adores her. I am very lucky to have asked her to watch my little dog while I was out of town!”
About: I have taken care of and owned many types of pets, big and small! I have always been trusted to watch neighbors’ dogs, cats, birds, and even the occasional reptile. I’m currently a college student so early morning and evenings would be my prime time. I have plenty of open evenings to walk dogs, play with pets, and make sure they are getting good care. I will be able to dedicate the necessary amount of time to your pet to make them comfortable! Wether this be walking, playing, or just staying in (for any older dogs) I will be there!
About: Loving, caring home with dogs of my own. I've been a part time pet sitter almost all my life and my passion is dogs but lover of all animals. I can take care of any breed or size dog, no restrictions. There are no children in my home and everyone here loves dogs so them being comfortable here will not be an issue. I always have plenty of different kinds of toys and treats for your specific dogs needs. I can even help teach your loved ones a trick or two, should you be so inclined. My care is top notch and hard to beat! Pet care seamlessly blends into my routine because my daytime job is highly flexible. This open schedule gives me total freedom to dedicate blocks of time to walking dogs, completing drop in visits or checking in on boarding fur babies. While I am starting school in a few weeks, my classes only take up 2.5 hours on two or three evenings per week. This minor commitment ensures I still have maximum availability during high demand daytime hours, plus plenty of completely free nights each week for attentive overnight house sitting! When caring for the animals in your home, my main focus is security, cleanliness, and minimizing separation anxiety. I follow your household rules precisely, ensure all doors and gates are securely locked, and collect your mail or water plants upon request. Each visit includes fresh food and water, a thoroughly scooped litter box or yard cleanup, and plenty of one on one attention through focused playtime and comforting belly rubs!
“This is our second time using Ally & Joey and won’t be our last. They’re amazing, very professional and really love our dogs. They went the extra mile and brought puzzles for our dogs in lieu of going on walks because of the heat. Our dogs love them and we feel no worries having our dogs cared for while we’re gone.”
“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.”
“Lacey took great care of our Bella! She showed up to the house on time and when she said she would. It's so hard to leave your little fur babies so but she sent lots of pictures, which was reassuring. We will definitely be using Lacey's services when we have to go out of town.”
About: As a Kennel Technician, I provided daily care and supervision for dogs of various breeds and temperaments, including feeding, exercise, enrichment, and group play. Maintained clean and safe kennels and play areas, monitored and documented pet health and behavior, reported concerns to management, and assisted with boarding check-in/check-out while providing professional customer service to pet owners I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of availability in the afternoons for check-ins and potty breaks. Sundays and Mondays are my days off, so I’m available to spend the entire day with your pup! I have been caring for my own dogs since I was a kid, my current dog is on medication so I have no issues admistering meds if needed. I also have no problem taking dogs to appointments if needed.
“I couldn’t recommend Madison enough! She left great updates and pictures for us each day of our cats while we were away. I felt so confident and at ease knowing they were in great care. She also took the time to bring in a package, and even left us a personal note congratulating us on our wedding! She’s the absolute sweetest and will take great care of your pets!”
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.
“Fiona was THE BEST and took great care of our babies! We had a last minute issue and had no one to watch them, she came in and made it work no problem. It was so comforting knowing they were taken care of while we were away. Huge thank you!! 🤍”
“Courtney has provided excellent care for Sonic over the past few months. She is attentive, caring, punctual, friendly, and reliable. The first time she ever cared for Sonic, she had to do wound care for his leg injury. She followed all the directions to a "T" and provided detailed updates. This was just one example of Courtney's excellent and professional care. Sonic is an anxious dog but he seems to adore her every time she's here! We enjoy working with Courtney and can't recommend her enough!”
“Shea is absolutely amazing! She took such good care of my Thena while I was away. Athena took such a liking to her, she was cuddling and showing all her tricks to her. She made Athena comfortable, she made me feel assured. She completes all the check lists, communicates well, clean, super sweet and loving! The perfect cat sitter! Will definitely reach out in the future!”
“We were in an emergency and reached out to Rover and found Sheridan and Adam P.. So happy we did. They took immediate available care of our critical short term needs then continued super care of our 3 large dogs and cats! Snuggle time, walks, food time all went unbelievably well. And we loved all the pictures. Thanks so much!”
“Rochelle was kind enough to do a meet and greet with my Luna. Everything went smoothly and she even brought in some packages I forgot were coming in during my trip. 10/10 would book her again! Thank you Rochelle!”
“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!”

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!
We had a great experience! She was able to accommodate us very last minute, which I really appreciated. She did a wonderful job making our dogs feel comfortable and cared for, and it gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. She was dependable, kind, and clearly made an effort to make sure they were happy while we were away. I would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets!
Emily is fantastic! She took great care of our three cats and I’m not sure they even missed us that much 😅 the updates and pictures were wonderful and I looked forward to those every visit, but didn’t worry at all while we were gone, which was such a relief. She followed all our instructions and was communicative, which I appreciated very much! We would definitely work with her again. Thank you, Emily!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Gilbert on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 6,730 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gilbert. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
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. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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:
- 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.
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.
