“Joanna was available to care for our dogs on a short notice and we are so thankful we found her! She was quick to respond to us and even came to meet our boys before dog sitting. We received photos and videos while we were away and felt so at ease knowing our boys loved having her in their home. We can’t wait to have her watch them again!”
“We went on a trip to San Diego for Comic Con and hired her about 2 to 3 weeks in advance for overnight care for cats. She sent pictures daily. She did cleanups she did the litter boxes twice a day mind you we have seven cats and a one year-old that ended up chewing one of our chords and she even replaced it. We thought he was out of this phase, but I guess New Kitty around new people regardless of that she stayed in communication. She always kept us updated New Kitty knew people regardless of that She always kept us updated with written notes, the place looks really good so I’m gonna rehire her again. Thank you.”
“Laura is a great sitter. She had great communication, was on time and left our house in good condition. She also followed all of the instructions for Elton. I think he really enjoyed his time with her as I am back from vacation and he seems exhausted from his mini vacation. I can only hope, selfishly, that Laura doesn’t get too busy so she is always free to watch Elton!”
“Maren is an incredible housesitter and dogsitter. She was responsive to texts and communicative about our dog's needs. We have a large breed and he can be very stubborn, and I appreciated her patience and flexibility with him. She made sure he had his medication, went to the bathroom, and went for walks. She closely followed our directions with his leashes, which I so appreciate. She also cleaned the floors and picked up the house before she left, and I cannot tell you how nice it was to come home to a clean house! Luca was happy and healthy when we returned. We'll definitely ask her to watch our dog again!”
“Alyssa was wonderful! She was available last minute and was so willing to help out. She made my dogs feel so comfortable while I was away. Would take them out to go potty, feed them when they needed, and gave them lots of pets and love. She even sent a few pictures of them throughout her care. I felt completely comfortable and stress-free knowing my dogs were in good care. I highly recommend Alyssa, she is wonderful.”
“McKenna did an amazing job caring for our pups in our home. She communicated well with updates and photos and videos. The pups received the utmost love and care in our absence, and I would not hesitate to recommend or book McKenna again!”
About: I've always brought home all the stray dogs and cared for the hurt animals. I have always been that friend that everyone counts on when they go out of town to take care of the pets. I love the ask honestly, because I love spending time with them. I am very patient and intuitive and will let your animal get to know me rather than force myself on then. I am retired, so I am free to take care of you animals as much or as little as you need. I am generally an early riser so I can take your dog out for an early walk or run. I'm also available 7 days a week. The care would have to be provided in your home at this time as my rental property will not allow pets at this time. However, I am very flexible about staying overnight at your place.
About: Animals have been a part of my life from a young age. I have experience with puppies, large breeds, senior pets, and hyperactive animals that need catered attention. I am an active individual who works remotely, and have ample time and love to pour into your pets. I am a fully remote employee who has the ability to cater to your schedule and pets care. Whether it be mid-day potty breaks/walk, or overnight care, my schedule can likely mold to accommodate your needs. I am available for in home care at your place of residence. I work remotely and can accommodate your schedule. Should a pet ever need to stay overnight with me, conversations can be had to determine whether my living quarters are a good fit.
“Amazing overnight dogsitter! Our dog normally is a really picky eater, but Emma managed this obstacle without any issues. She also administered her daily medication with no issues. We’ll continue to book her!”
“My house was clean, Pets were all well taken care of (and they are not the easiest with schedules and meds). Couldn't have asked for a better person to care for them.”
“She was always made a point to check in with me about what's going on. She would let me know what times she had to leave. She checked in to make sure that works for us. She took very good care of my babies. They were very happy with her. I recommend her to anyone. She is a responsible person, she would check in with me if she had any questions for me.”
“María José was a wonderful caretaker for our dog, Pepper! She stayed at our apartment with Pepper throughout our 5 day trip and took amazing care of our pup. María José sent so mahy pictures, gave frequent and thorough updates and made sure our dog was loved and cared for. We could not recommend her enough!”

Marianne was the best when it came to having peace of mind as to who was watching my dogs. She was able to accommodate staying in our apartment, which to me was very important as I wanted my dogs to be at home in a familiar environment. Marianne provided me with updates throughout the day & sent me photos of their play time and walks. Over all 5 ⭐️’s for communication and overall care. Really glad I came across her Rover profile, we plan on becoming returning clients of hers when needed in the future. Would definitely recommend hiring someone like Marianne to watch your fur babies. 🐾
We had Jai pet-sit our 2 dogs and cat again. This time we were gone for two (2) weeks. Jai certainly catered to our pets and took amazing care of them & our home. She kept us updated throughout - and we so appreciate her communication-style. She provides updates and asks questions where you can tell she is caring for your pets, wants you to know how they’re doing- but still allows you to enjoy your vacation. Jai is professional, caring, kind and a true gem.
Alyssa was wonderful! She was available last minute and was so willing to help out. She made my dogs feel so comfortable while I was away. Would take them out to go potty, feed them when they needed, and gave them lots of pets and love. She even sent a few pictures of them throughout her care. I felt completely comfortable and stress-free knowing my dogs were in good care. I highly recommend Alyssa, she is wonderful.
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.
Joanna was available to care for our dogs on a short notice and we are so thankful we found her! She was quick to respond to us and even came to meet our boys before dog sitting. We received photos and videos while we were away and felt so at ease knowing our boys loved having her in their home. We can’t wait to have her watch them again!
Rachelle was amazing! From my initial contact, all the way through to the end, she was excellent with communication and updates. This was our first time using a pet sitter in our home and Rachelle definitely took care of us! I would not hesitate to use her services again 👍🏼
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.
Madi was just amazing! We have two senior dogs and she jumped right in to love them while we were traveling. She was on top of all of their meds and sent lots of pictures keeping us updated on how they were doing. Thank you so much Madi! We will definitely book again!

The average cost of House Sitting in Mesa is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $84 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Mesa 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 Mesa 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Mesa 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
