“Lucy was awesome with Lola. It was very comforting to me to know that she was home being taken care of while I had to be away. I’ll never use a kennel again after our experience with Lucy! She’s a wonderful young lady, and will definitely contact her again in the future.”

“Monica was a pleasure to meet and I instantly felt confident in her ability to care for our cats. One gets oral medication, and although he put up a bit of a fight at the beginning (as he often does), Monica was ultimately successful. I got daily photos to know they were doing a-ok, and we came home to happy kitties. Would absolutely hire her again!”

About: I have been caring for animals since my childhood and have several of my own. I am a veterinary assistant and am comfortable with animals of all ages and sizes, as well as with responsibilities such as administering medication, walks, special diets, etc. I work and go to school part time. I have the most freedom on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, but can also periodically check on your pet on the other days of the week. I can do overnights as well. I will work with your pets needs whether that is specific feeding times, a walking schedule, or other routines that you and your pet typically do.
“Monique took excellent care of my dog while I was away! Shoelace took to her immediately and seemed very happy in all of the pictures Monique sent. It was so great to come home to a happy, relaxed pup and know she was well looked after. I will definitely hire Monique again in the future! Thanks, Monique :)”

“My cat adored Ali. They played and cuddled, and of course Ali fed her well and groomed her and took good care of her and the house. She reliably kept her appointments for two weeks and sent me great photos and messages twice a day. I will absolutely use Ali's services again!”

“Sarah did a great job with taking care of my pets. She followed all the instructions and really cared for them. She is dependable and very caring. So glad she is a rover for me and my pets!”


About: I grew up surrounded by a family of dogs and cats. Since I was a kid I have owned or taken care of puppies all the way to senior dogs. My 16 year old Brittany Spaniel recently passed away. I had her since she was a month old. I like to think I gave her an amazing adventurous life. Dogs are angels and I love spending time with them. I currently have a full time job Monday through Friday. My hours however are only 7am-2pm. Most evenings are open including weekends. I love being active outside of work so this opportunity fits well. I have a front yard surrounded by a tall adobe wall and locked gate. I have one energetic 3 year old dog at the moment who loves playing and running. I take her to a nearby field where I throw a ball and she plays fetch like crazy. My neighborhood is safe and quiet and my main priority is my dog’s safety.

“Joel has been a life saver for my dog Epi and I! He is very willing to work with my schedule, is dependable, on time, and most of all, enjoys taking care of my dog. They have been even known to cuddle together, which makes me so happy! Joel is the best kind of dog sitter anyone could ask for. We are so lucky to have him take care of us!”

“wonderful job once again. Second time I’ve used Alyssa and my cat Max has already started accepting her. He is normallyquite picky and usually afraid of everyone.”

“Terrance was able to step in at the last minute and come watch my pup for two days. He did a great job and was very responsive. On time. And a pleasure to have watching my dog. I’m definitely going to keep him as a contact for future bookings. Highly recommended.”

About: I’ve had dogs of my own since I was 5. I was made to be responsible for any pets I had, so I had to make sure I they got food, water, cleaned up after, played with, walked(once I was 10 I started doing this), gave medication, and gave them baths. I started working for a pet sitting/doggie daycare when I was 22 and Blue Buffalo pet food where I was put through pet nutrition courses. When working with the pet sitting company I did work with reactive dogs often because I have the skills to be able to work with these dogs as I myself had a very reactive dog. I can also work with puppies on basic commands. I am currently pretty open and free to come all days of the week except for Sundays. My preferred time range would be from 9am- 8pm. I will clean up after them, walk, play, cuddle, give bath if needed, administer medication, feed and make sure they have water. If it’s fish I can do tank maintenance and feed. If it’s other animals such as small animals, domestic birds, and non venomous/legal reptiles I can feed, clean enclosures, and socialize.
“Madelyn did an amazing job looking after our cats when we were gone for Thanksgiving week. She was also kind enough to bring in the mail. The cats were well taken care of. It was a great worry off my mind knowing someone was there to ensure they had food water and treats every day. Would definitely book again.”

“Brigit was prompt with communications, kind, knowledgeable, and my cat was happy when I returned home! I would call her again and suggest her to others.”


About: I am an experienced dog owner, rescuer and caregiver. In addition to owning pets, I have vast experience with rescues including fostering and working in a shelter environment. I can work with difficult dogs including fear and aggression issues that other pet sitters may not feel comfortable doing. I work from home so I can easily care for pets for drop ins close to my central Phoenix location. I will accept overnights close to central Phoenix and can even spend some of the work days at your home with your pets if you have high speed WiFi. I will walk/exercise your dogs when the weather is appropriate and give all the snuggles they could ever want! Please contact me and I'd be happy to meet with you to see if you think it's a match! I do give discounts for additional dogs in the household based on needs. I can discount the rates after you request the booking if we chat a bit before we confirm to see what the household needs are. I will also care for other pets such as cats, birds, fish, etc as well as water plants, bring in mail, etc. I am currently fully available for pet care and ready to help out clients. I do have one dog of my own so I am unavailable for overnight stays unless it’s an established client with special circumstances. I only have a fenced courtyard at home so I am already used to daily walks, leashed potty trips, etc but also have had large fenced yards in the past and understand supervision is still a necessity in off leashed areas.
“Christie was absolutely amazing with Kitty. She brushed her and gave her lots of attention. Kitty really enjoyed Christie’s company. I would definitely have her come in and watch kitty and my dogs. She gave me peace of mind leaving Kitty for 9 days. Thank you Christie.”

“Rachel did an amazing job taking care of our 3 kitties over the holidays! She was never late and communicated well. She ensured one of our cats got his medicine each day and cleaned up any messes. We would definitely use Rachel again in the future!”

“Leslie was so wonderful to my babies. I cannot praise her enough! She helped me when I was in a bind which will not be forgotten. She took pictures of her playing with them with frequent updates, as well. She is definitely worth 5 stars. If there was 6 stars, she would get them!”

La Luz pet parents share their Rover experiences
Thank you Kristin for looking after my boys over the holidays! I sincerely appreciate your flexibility as travels are always up to change. I also appreciate that I can keep booking you, I am certain Linus and Fergus are more comfortable with your repeated care.

Tracy was great! She very clearly has behavioral training. My dog has her quirks - she’s a little timid, rarely stops moving, and can be bossy around meal times. Tracy was really patient with her. She let her set the pace in getting to know each other and re-directed and entertained her by playing brain games. She sent me detailed updates and followed instructions the way I would hope someone caring for my dog would. I would definitely recommend her, and will be booking with her again when needed.
Andrea is the best. She is so caring and took wonderful care of my senior dog Gus. He has special needs and Andrea is very mindful of them. She is very organized and communicative. She provides pictures and updates. If you need a great Housesitter look no further!

Our cat really seem to enjoy having someone stop in and visit with him while we were out of town with family. Julie was very respectful of our home, always made sure our house was locked/alarmed when she left after the visit and treated our fur baby really well. She's very nice, a good communicator and was accommodating, not that we asked for a lot. She also agreed to water my plants on one of the visits during the week that we were gone. We even got adorable pictures of our cat on our Rover cards during her visits. We had a really reassuring experience having her as our pet sitter. We highly recommend her and will absolutely be contacting her for our next trip out of town.

Highly recommend. Margaret was great with both my high energy pittie and my super skittish boxer mix. She kept me updated and sent lots of cute pictures. She even went above and beyond by noticing that it was trash day and taking the trash out for me. It’s always stressful leaving my dogs behind while I travel, but Margaret eased my concerns. I would definitely use her again!
