“We used Robert for the 2nd time to house and dog sit our German Shepherd. Robert provided prompt updates and was always quick to respond. He provides unparalleled care and treats our home as if it was his own; the neatest houseguest I’ve ever had! Robert was extremely reliable in following instructions for our dog’s care and medications. He’s an experienced handler of dogs and treats our dog as if it were his own. Quite simply the best anyone could ask for! I look forward to using Robert again knowing that everything will be professionally attended to and our dog will be thoroughly entertained and well taken care of. He provides the utmost piece of mind while we’re away.”
“Once again Marry took excellent care of my fur babies and home. She truly is an exceptional pet sitter Sami, Ms Cleo, and Fiona are always in good hands when Marry takes care of them.”
“Joanna was amazing! My typically shy dog loved her immediately which made it easier for this nervous momma leave without worrying. I will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Amy was super attentive and caring towards our sweet boy. Great communicator as well as fantastic at sending a few photos and updates while we were gone…that gave us peace of mind knowing he was in good hands and we could fully enjoy our time away. We fully trust her and will book again in the future. Thank you so much, Amy!”
“Daniel is spectacular! His energy immediately attracted our dogs. After losing our past sitter to moving away, it was difficult to leave town outside of work. We are so glad that Daniel is now in our lives. He took great care of our pooches and our home. Highly recommend Daniel.”
“Mercedes did a great job and went above and beyond to care for our dogs. Even going as far as making sure we had a clean home to come home to after traveling. We will definitely book with her in the future!”
“Kelly came for a meet and greet, and was engaging with both of our pups within minutes. We are new to the area, and so for our first sit just had a day out in town. She kept us up to date with pictures and notes about what the pups were doing, and was good about asking questions when needed. We will be happy to have Kelly sit for us again!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets within the family and they always love coming over. Pets are like family in my home. Taking them out for walks or keeping them active I believe is crucial for every pup. Their safety is my priority and making sure they feel comfortable at my home. I’m currently a stay at home mom and I’m always looking out for my dog when I’m home and playing with or taking her for afternoon walks. My schedule is currently mostly open and flexible! I have a fenced backyard and one pug who loves to play. Summer(my dog) will want to play with your pup but, if she notices the dog isn’t interested she will back up and do her own thing. My neighborhood is really safe area and there isn’t much traffic. I do have an extra crate where your pup can nap.
“Carmen was an amazing dog sitter! She kept in communication with me on a daily basis, as I asked, she followed all the instructions I left her for my dog and the house such as taking the trash out and watering the plants. When she wasn’t sure of something, she would check in with me to ask which I really appreciated. I would absolutely recommend Carmen as a sitter and I will definitely use her services again! My dog loved her and was well taken care of.”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple pets at once. Some in my home and some at their home. My friends and family have relied on me to help them with their pet. I’m currently open to any sitting right now since I’m currently not working. I have a lot of time on my hands to help out. I am a stay at home mom. I do not have any pets of my own. I have a fenced back yard. Not too big but big enough for furry friends. Furry friends are welcome in my home as well and on the couch.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Britt stayed overnight with our two dogs for six days and took amazing care of both our pups and our home. She treated our dogs like they were her own and kept us updated with frequent messages and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She also went above and beyond when our AC unexpectedly stopped working. She immediately let us know, and set up fans to keep our dogs comfortable until we got home. We were so grateful knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She left our home spotless, was incredibly reliable, spent lots of time playing with them and giving them exercise, and made the entire experience completely stress-free. We would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pets.”

About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’m patient, attentive, and responsible, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of care, attention, playtime, and affection. I’m comfortable following specific routines and instructions from pet parents and want every animal to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. I’m able to give pets dedicated attention throughout the day, including walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I’m happy to work with each pet’s normal routine and make sure they receive consistent care while their family is away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications if applicable, routines, and anything else your pet needs. I’ll keep a close eye on them, provide a calm and comfortable environment, and communicate with you about how they’re doing. I want pet parents to feel confident that their pets are being treated like family while they’re away
About: Hi! Available for (much of) Santa Cruz and Cochise Counties, including Ft Huachuca. I grew up on a farm, worked at a vet clinic, and have always had animals and pets when my life permitted. I have a passion for our furry "family members" as well as learning all different types of animal behavior. Dogs, cats, horses, cows, donkeys, fish, and even took care of a camel a time or two. My professional and athletic life has taken me around the world, and frankly, caring for pets of family, friends and neighbors throughout the years has still always been a most gratifying highlight! I have the patience and energy to match dogs of all temperaments, so let me know how I can support you and your family! If my profile is visible, it means I have plenty of time to help out with your furry family members, be it pet-sitting, walking, or just checking in on them. I have a highly-flexible schedule and a vehicle large enough to crate/transport if needed. As far as housesitting, depending on the proximity, would be flexible on either daily check-in and/or possibly overnights. Please reach out in advance to discuss. I live on a large ranch but do prefer to keep them leashed when walking (until I know they heel well AND to keep YOU more confident). I'm flexible on this based on consults with you. They would sleep indoors, and if you prefer, I could easily crate as well. Non-smoking home. You can bet I'll treat them as my own!

FAQs for House Sitting - Madera Canyon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 695 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Madera Canyon. 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 Madera Canyon 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 Madera Canyon 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 Madera Canyon 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.

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.
