“Trinity did a great job taking care of our dog and was so respectful of our home! She sent many pictures and updates, and genuinely enjoyed our dog, which every pet owner hopes for!”
“We are so fortunate to have found Jacob to take care of our 8 year old dog at home. He is a kind soul that allowed us to really enjoy our long weekend without any worries. We have already booked him for our 9-day trip to the East Coast in September. He is very responsive and easy going. I'm grateful for his attentive care of our best boy!”
“Camryn is great! My dog has a terminal illness - it’s super hard for me to leave her and harder still for the person who cares for her. Civvy has special diet requirements, daily medications and eye drops. It’s a lot of care. Camryn came in without hesitation and took over with confidence. Because Camryn works full time I had set up a team of care givers so Civvy wasn’t left alone for too long. Camryn was flexible and accommodating. She maintained communication with the ‘team’ and helped organize visits - my neighbors loved her! I recommend her completely and if she’s available and willing I would book her again in a second.”
About: I bring over 10 years of hands on pet-sitting experience caring for both dogs, cats, rabbits, and goats for family and friends. I’m dependable, communicative, and highly organized. I truly adapt to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic, shy, or senior, and I care for every animal as if they were my own. Hi, I’m Crystal from Fort Worth, TX. I’m a mom of three teens and a professional Realtor in the DFW area, so reliability, trust, and clear communication are extremely important to me. My career also gives me a flexible schedule and dependable transportation, making it easy to fit pet care into my day. I’m a devoted dog mom of a 9yr old mini schnauzer and a 6yr old pocket bully that I raised from birth. I adapt to each pet’s unique needs and treats every furry friend like family. 🐾 I care for pets in my client’s home by following their routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get proper potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention and affection. I adapt my care based on each pet’s personality, energy level, and any special instructions. Safety is always my top priority, and I provide reliable communication and updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.
“Dawna was truly amazing. My husband and I were in Fruita from Steamboat for the week and needed a dog sitter for our two hound pups on a day we couldn’t be around. Our dogs had no problem warming up to her from the moment she walked through the door. Dawna helped my husband load our car to come meet me, I was doing florals for a wedding nearby so we had a ton of flowers and materials to load and take to the venue. She went out of her way to make sure he had everything he needed before he left. She then cleaned our entire Airbnb while we were gone. The place was a disaster after arranging flowers for a few days so coming back to a clean house after the mess we were staying in was unbelievable. She did our laundry and ironed our clothes and sat to chat with us, getting to know us and our doggies. She went above and beyond in every way. We never imagined having a dog sitter so friendly and passionate about making our experience seamless. I would recommend her a 1000 times over again. We will be giving her a call again in the future!”

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.
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 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 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 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.

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.
