“All my worries about leaving town for a few days were laid to rest - Griselda did an absolutely phenomenal job taking care of my fur baby! Every visit had a wonderful report/update, I could truly tell my pup was in good hands. l definitely plan on requesting Griselda for my dog sitting needs in the future.”
“Kellie did a fantastic job taking care of my cat while we were away. He warmed up to her quickly and seemed so happy in the visit photos. This is the third time we have her take care of him and we’ll continue to request her services whenever we need!”
“Madison was so sweet with my baby! My pet is super shy, but Madison was very patient with her and they ended up playing together a bit on the last day! Also super communicative and reassuring. Also left everything cleaner than it was before. Would definitely book with Madison again! (:”
“Danielle took wonderful care of Cleo for my elderly father while he came for a visit. She generously offered to modify the visit schedule based upon Cleo's needs, which was much appreciated. Daily updates and photos kept my dad at ease during his travels. I highly recommend Danielle and will seek her out again in the future for Cleo's care.”
“Vanessa was awesome with my cat Wilson! I had zero worries while I was away. She was always on time, great with communication and above all took really good care of Wilson. I’m sure going to reach out to her in the future!”
About: I ran a dog boarding and daycare business out of my own home in Ohio for 2 years prior to moving to Arizona. My family ALWAYS uses me for their pet needs, whether that’s in their home or in mine! Dogs are family, and I make sure to treat them that way! I work from home so I can give your pet all the love and care it deserves! My life already revolves around my dog, so why not take care of other people's pets? I have a fenced in yard (with a pool). I can crate your dog if needed, but welcome to roam free as long as they don’t chew and are house trained.
“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!”
“Alison does a fantastic job every time. Professional and tender with our dog. It is great to be able to go on vacation knowing Alison is taking care of our dog and home.”
“Pamela did a absolutely great job taking care of our two cats while we were gone. Really went above and beyond. Sent great updates each visit. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her in the future!”
“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.”
“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.”
About: I have more than 20 years of experience caring for cats and 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes. I have cared for small, medium, and large dogs, including shy, skittish, and anxious dogs that need patience and time to feel comfortable. I am also a meditation teacher. That background has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and ability to bring a calm presence to new situations. I take time to notice each pet’s behavior, respect their boundaries, and let trust develop at their pace. I love walking and spending time outdoors. I am happy to provide relaxed neighborhood walks or more active outings based on your dog’s energy level and needs. With your approval, I am also open to taking suitable dogs for outings at Catalina State Park. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting for dogs and cats. I follow each pet’s established routine and pay close attention to their comfort and individual preferences. My goal is to help your pets feel safe and settled while you are away. I am comfortable handling feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box care, and detailed written instructions. I also respect the privacy and cleanliness of every home I enter. Communication matters to me. I love taking photos and will provide regular updates so you know how your pets are doing. I welcome a meet and greet before the first booking so we can review their routine, needs, and personality. My schedule offers flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week. I often work remotely, which allows me to spend substantial time with pets during house-sitting stays. On some days, I may need to leave for short periods for work or appointments. I will always discuss my schedule with you before booking so we can make sure your pet’s routine and care needs are a good fit. I treat your home with care and respect. I keep pet areas clean, bring in packages or mail when requested, and make sure your home is secure whenever I leave. You can expect regular photos and clear updates throughout the booking. Please let me know how often you prefer to receive them.
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Rachael provided for our two felines. They are usually very hesitant around new people and prefer to hide, but Rachael’s patience and dedication quickly won them over. After only a few visits, they were literally eating from her hand. Rachael was thorough and consistent in her care, sending prompt daily recaps that included a checklist of each visit—food, litter, playtime, etc.—and thoughtful photos. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and her updates gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It’s evident that Rachael treats pet sitting as a profession, not a side job. We felt completely confident leaving our pets in her care and will absolutely be using her again for future trips.”
“Kiersten is the best sitter I’ve ever had! She truly gave me peace of mind when I was out of town. She sent me so many videos/pictures of them and gave the fur babies so much love. They really love her! I will definitely book again if I need a sitter”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Oro Valley
Kellie (and sometimes Harper) did a great job taking care of Cooper ! I received a daily report and pictures reafiriming all of his care It was so comforting to leave him and know that all of his needs were being met and he was in good hands. It made being away so much easier.
She did great after not seeing the dogs for quite some time. Our dogs are 2 young golden retriever and get very excited and she handles them well, we got updates for every visit with pictures. She is always on time which made me feel more at ease when we were on vacation.
Lucille was great! She took great care of my Doberman. She took my pup for walks and play fetch with him on her drop in visits! Her communication was excellent and she provided pictures/videos as well! Will definitely be my go to when I need someone to help out with my pup!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Oro Valley on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,406 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Oro Valley. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.

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.
