âRonnie was great. He came over and met my pups before our visit. Set realistic boundaries and stuck with me to get setup on my garage door opener to get access to my home. The pups did really well with Ronnie and our short trip was wonderful and I was super relaxed knowing Ronnie would be there to watch over my babies.â

âVicki seemed very kind and gentle when I met her and made me feel comfortable with her watching my cats, she sent pictures with each drop in, and responded promptly to the few questions I had. Iâm very happy with the service.â

âShe was amazing, checked in everyday on time and with pictures of my animals. Everything I asked her to do was done and a little more. I appreciate her taking care of my animals and spending some extra time with them to play. I would go with her again the next time I go out of town! :)â

âLast minute I needed a Rover and Nikkole popped up on my recommendations. She was GREAT! She followed the instructions to a T, was on time, and extremely communicative. My 4 year old Australian Shepard can be a lot and Nikkole did a great job playing fetch. My black cat was being initially shy and Nikkole climbed under our bed with churu to show her she was safe, and within 10 minutes the cat was sitting on her lap. Nikkole has become a new go to sitter for me and canât thank her enough for the last minute help!â

âWe went out of town for 13 days and we had Rachel do drop in visits for our cat, Bella (we have to take our 2 older dogs with us). We did a meet & greet with Rachel coming over to meet our kitty and Rachel also agreed to feed our fish every other day! (We just returned home yesterday) She did a great job for us and our babies left behind, I very much would Love to use her again! Our cat Bella doesnât at all like when we leave and so he was very elusive but we did get updates and pics of the fish ? they were more outgoing LoL (& captive in a tank..haha) anyways if Rachel would be willing to help us again in the future it would be great with us!! Rachelâs super sweet, down to earth, friendly and made me feel comfortable! And I highly recommend her for anyone who needs to feel at peace with a sitter or in our case to do drop in visits!! Thanks Rachel â¤ď¸???â

âI canât even begin to explain how amazing Willow is! Sheâs so great with my puppy AND me. She gives great training advice, helped me with tips and tricks when my puppy was having separation anxiety, teaches him new tricks, and is sooo patient with him. He adores Willow and looks forward to her visits. đ Thank you, Willow!!â

About: We donât have any special skillsâwe just really love dogs and cats ! Our friends often leave their dogs with us when they travel. The only âproblemâ is that sometimes the dogs have so much fun, they donât really want to go home when their owners come back! My schedule is pretty flexible right now. I'm usually home all day on Mondays, Fridays, and Saturdays. On Wednesdays, I'm home until about 1 p.m. On weekends, I'm generally at home except for Sunday mornings when I go out. We live in a single-family house. The first floor has tile flooring, and my office downstairs has a doggy door so dogs can go in and out freely. The second floor has wooden floors, but we have a gate at the stairs to keep the dogs from going up. We also have a backyard thatâs about 1,200 square feet, and thereâs a swimming poolâbut itâs fully fenced off for safety. We donât have kids or other pets, and the house isnât super crowded with furniture, so thereâs plenty of open space in the living room for dogs to play and for their stuff.
âKayla did an amazing job on a few check ins while we were out of town. Our cat Desi has really taken a liking to her, probably because Kayla will brush her out when she stops by. Kayla also went above and beyond and helped revive our plants. Will continue to hire herâ

About: I always grew up with pets in the home! I have had two doggies growing up that I had since they were puppies and we grew up together! I also have experience fostering dogs as well :) I currently work part time in the restaurant industry so my schedule is pretty open and flexible so I would love to spend that time with your pets. I currently live in a spacious condo with a fenced yard in a very safe area as well. Everyone is very friendly and the community has a grass area.
âIâve had Rachael watch my cats a few times now. She always goes above and beyond. Sheâs not just checking on them but actually playing with them and spending time with them. And does little things like bring out my trash to the curb.â

âI will never stop singing Brittanyâs praises! She takes the best care of our cat and sends the most wonderful updates. I canât thank her enough â¤ď¸â¤ď¸â

âMichael did a great job with a drop in visit this time. The pups were ecstatic to see him. He he took them out and also played ball with them for a while in the backyard. I can always be confident that during my longer business days that our dogs are happy and well cared for.â


About: Iâve taken care of all sorts of pets and farm animals growing up; dogs, cats, fish, chicken, and ducks. I have the utmost care & respect for all animals and people alike, I would love to take care of any pet for the pet parents out there who need an extra hand! I have two lovely cats at home, and I will treat your babies with as much care, respect & love that I provide for my own fur babies. Iâm in a new part-time position that only requires 24 hours of my time per week, the rest of the time I can be flexible with. Mondays are definitely open for me. I follow directions very closely, and can quickly adjust to any pet care instructions. You can count on me being thorough with any care needed.
About: Hi! Iâm Dezi- a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and even household plants. Iâve raised three puppies of my own and have plenty of experience with senior dogs and cats, giving me a strong understanding of different temperaments and care needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just a cozy cuddle buddy, Iâm here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while youâre away. I offer check-ins and house sitting, and Iâm very flexible with scheduling, pet types, and location. Based in the Chandler area, I know all the best walking spots and make it a priority to keep your pets active, comfortable, and stress-free. I truly enjoy building bonds with the animals I care for; pet sitting is something that brings me just as much joy as it does the pets! Canât wait to meet your pets! I currently have a pretty flexible job that allows for working from home and various hours. I am pretty flexible and willing to fit in a check-in or pet sit anytime I can, as I have a reliable form of transportation. I am currently not able to take pets in my home as I have a few of my own, however, I can definitely do house visits and stays when needed in order to make your pet comfortable. During this time I will make sure the pet has all the basic needs (food, water, walks, snuggles) and then some!
About: Hi there! We're Stephanie and Joseph, and we've been passionate pet sitters for over 6 years. Our experience spans all breeds and sizes! In October 2021, we adopted and welcomed our own four-legged family member, Shyla, an American Terrier. Sheâs been an incredible addition to our lives and absolutely loves making new furry friends. Shyla has a friendly and welcoming nature, and sheâs yet to meet a dog she doesnât get along with. Whether your dog is playful or prefers a calm companion, weâre confident theyâll feel right at home with us and Shyla. We both work hybrid schedules with our full-time jobs, which gives us the flexibility needed to care for your pup. We typically schedule our work commitments between 10am-3pm, so we aim to have drop-offs and pick-ups outside of those hours. However, with prior communication, we can typically accommodate different times as needed. The great thing is that there are two of us, so we always have more hands on deck, and one of us is almost always home or near home to ensure your pet gets the attention and care they need. At our home, we have a fenced-in backyard with high brick walls where your dog is welcome to roam and play safely. We believe in maintaining your dogâs normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure, so please share any specifics about their habits. Whether your dog is crate-trained, has couch restrictions, or loves daily walks, weâre happy to accommodate! Walks are already part of our routine, as our own dog enjoys them daily, so your pup will get plenty of exercise and fresh air. Our goal is to ensure your dog feels at home while staying with us. Let us know about their unique quirks, personalities, and any preferences they have. Weâll do our best to make their stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible!
âI found Brian when my full time pet sitter had car trouble. Brian is fantastic! He sent daily reports and pictures. He is extremely detailed and made sure the dogs were in excellent company and care. He's wonderful!â

âKelsey has been great with our two puppies! Very reliable on drop-in visits. We always get thorough notes and pictures, they look like they are having such a great time!â

Mission Ridge pet parents share their Rover experiences
Last minute I needed a Rover and Nikkole popped up on my recommendations. She was GREAT! She followed the instructions to a T, was on time, and extremely communicative. My 4 year old Australian Shepard can be a lot and Nikkole did a great job playing fetch. My black cat was being initially shy and Nikkole climbed under our bed with churu to show her she was safe, and within 10 minutes the cat was sitting on her lap. Nikkole has become a new go to sitter for me and canât thank her enough for the last minute help!

Ryann was amazing and would 100% use her again. She took great care of Louise, Tilly and Pancake. Sent pictures and summary of every visit. Extremely fast to respond to any questions or requests. Book Ryann for your pets, you will not regret it. Top tier service provided.

This is the second time we have used Shannon! Shannon continued to come back multiple visits after our dog exhibited territorialness and even scratched her. She adapted and was flexible during the holidays while we were across the country so that his needs could still be met while we were away. We are extremely grateful for her persistence. She even bought him treats herself for christmas!

This was the first all day/night routine for Alicia with our boys. Alicia is such a natural with pets. There are a few tricks we use to get the cats to eat almost immediately, but we did not want to burden Alicia with any unnecessary steps for feeding time. Without fail, Alicia took the initiative to implement them herself. We were simply blown away. Alicia really makes it worth while to keep your pets at home, in their environment when the family needs a small getaway trip. Thanks Alicia!
