“Kelly was timely and immediately bonded with my cat on her first visit! She was sure to send me lots of pics to make sure he was ok. Will certainly seek her services again!”
“My second time booking with Griselda and everything went wonderful (as expected)! Great updates during her visits and I always return to a happy and well cared for pet! Five stars - I absolutely recommend booking with Griselda!”
“My doodle Luna had a blast playing with Seth and family. Enough of her puppy energy was dissipated that she had a good, long sleep. She was sad to see the drop-in visit end but will now be happy to be dropped off at the "fun family's" house for day-care and in-home boarding.”
“Pam is so great with our cat, Pippin. She took the time to find his hiding spots and coax him out and get to know him the first time we booked her, and ever since he comes running to greet her when she comes to look in on him. I love that he has someone to give him snugs and playtime and to listen to his stories when we are away. Pam is the best!”
“Danielle is fantastic! She has been caring for our dogs at our home for a while now, and we’ve never had a single issue. She’s incredibly reliable and trustworthy—we couldn’t ask for a better dog nanny!”
“Amanda is great! Our senior dog, Luna, can be a little finicky and loves Amanda. We can tell when we get home that Luna has been well taken care of and our house is in great shape. We have used her for house sitting and drop in visits and couldn’t recommend her more.”
“Simple: Danika is awesome. You will not regret booking her. She cares for our pets as if they were her own. Our pets actually are exited to see her and even our nervous nelly Jyn warmed up fast.”
“Outstanding job and excellent communicator. So thankful to have finally found an excellent pet sitter who I can trust. Melayna is terrific and my dog absolutely loved spending time with her. Worth every penny, can’t wait to book with her in the future.”
About: I have watched pets for friends, family, and others off and on for about 4 years. I have helped raise 2 puppies with my family and have aided in end of life care for 2 family dogs that passed away from old age. I have one dog right now, so I am familiar with the ins and outs of having a pet and what that entails. I also did a brief stint at a doggy daycare, so I am comfortable with dog handling, feeding, routines, cleaning up and anything else needed. If I’m being honest, I really don’t do much and I am trying to do more! I am interested in possibly working with animals as a career and I feel like this could be a great stepping stone. And i would also love something to fill my time! I love animals and getting to know them and their parent/s. I have a dog of my own that I help take care of with my mom and brother. I’m excited to make new furry friends. I will be taking care of your pet the same way I would mine! Feed and walk on whatever schedule is best and play as much as they would like. I also don’t yell at my dog, meaning I don’t raise my voice if she does something wrong, I don’t feel like that’s helpful or positive, so no raising voices to other pups either. I am eager to learn anything I need to in order to properly take care of your furry family!
“Rachel came and met our pets before we left home to learn about them. She sent detailed updates throughout our vacation! We will definitely request to rebook the next time we take an extended trip!”
“We had a great experience with Lauren. She came by to let out my dogs Presley and Kovu and took such good care of them. She was reliable and communicative. The dogs seemed happy and comfortable with her. We really appreciated the updates and care she gave them and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oro Valley
We couldn't be happier with the care our dog received! Griselda provided dependable drop-in visits, and it was clear from the very beginning that she genuinely loves animals. She took the time to make sure our dog had fresh food and water, plenty of attention, exercise, and lots of affection during every visit. One of the things we appreciated most was the excellent communication. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Finding someone you trust with a beloved pet is invaluable, and we felt completely confident knowing our dog was in such caring and capable hands. We came home to a relaxed, happy dog, and that says everything. We highly recommend Griselda to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and professional pet care. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
Olivia is amazing!! She dropped in several times over the past few days and took such good care of my senior pup Stryker. She even came by last minute for a visit when there was a conflict with the work schedule. Communicates very well and sends pics and videos. Will absolutely book her again!
We loved Kayla! We hired her to water our veggie plants twice a day while were were out of town. She showed up on time the morning before we left. She was polite, attentive, and had lovely manners. After we returned from our trip, it was clear that she had taken excellent care of our plants. Everything looked great! I would absolutely trust her with pets and would hire her again in an instant.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Oro Valley stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Oro Valley. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
