âKellie was wonderful overall. She was quick to respond and wonderful with our pups! Two, one-year-old dogs, are a lot to keep up with, and she did great. Especially with communication when she visited them I really appreciate her professionalism and her enthusiasm for animals and will definitely look to ask for her help again!â

âI got a daily text upon check in and check out with details of activities, and a picture of my kitty. Communication was ongoing throughout my trip and I felt ok about leaving my pet knowing how she was doing everyday. Will request again.â

âMy 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.â


About: My name is Kat Johnson! I am available for house-sitting stays for cats and dogs of all breeds and care levels. I have several years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. Iâm a graduate student at SNHU and I previously worked for PetSmart as a groomer. Iâve been trained in pet care and safety, with new updated training on a regular basis. I have experience pet sitting with pets of all breeds and ages. I love animals and I can promise theyâll be more than pampered under my care. Iâm looking to make a little extra money here and there while Iâm in school. Customer satisfaction and pet safety are among my top priorities. Iâm incredibly flexible and I will work with each and every Pet Parent to provide the best service possible. I look forward to working with you! â¤ď¸ I'm currently working under the USFS in the Red Rock Ranger District! I work 4 days per week which are standard 8 hour days. This means your pet won't be left alone for long periods and well supervised! Updates and close montoring will always be provided to your pet. Every pet is different and it's my goal to ensure that your pet's individual needs are met. I have pets of my own and several years of experience pet sitting. In that time, there has never been any safety incident under my care. Even so, I'm prepared for any scenario and always have emergency plans in place with each pet parent to give you peace of mind while you are away. Customer satisfaction and care of both your pet and your home can be ensured when you book with me!
About: I have walked dogs and taken care of animals since I was young. As a nanny, I walked the families dogs daily and house sat for them. My family and I traveled for the past two years throughout the US to discover new places and experiences. Our daughter (7) and our dog (9) were along for the ride! We housesat, long term, in a few places and love taking care of animals. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages along with cats, chickens, horses, and other animals. We are artists who work from home so if boarding with me, your dog will never be alone for long. We are active and our dog gets two walks a day. Please be mindful that we do have a 7 year old child and our dog does need to do a meet and greet with any boarders. I currently have a very flexible schedule with lots of availability to stop in to play, take walks, and board your best friend. Message me if you need a time not offered. Caring for a pet in your home is a responsibility I take seriously. Its great to be in their own environment and I strive to keep them on their regular schedule as best as possible. My family and I traveled the country from house sit to house sit so I understand how important it is to respect everyone's space, home, and peace of mind. Typically, a house sit on Rover would be just myself coming to take care of your pet with the possibility of meeting up with my husband, daughter, and dog outside of the home if it were okay with the owner.
About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart. I have been pet sitting since my early teens through Facebook inquiries and I previously had been pet sitting through Wag. (I still pet sit through Wag, but I wanted to give Rover a chance!) I have dogs and cats of my own, so I understand that every animal has different needs and different boundaries. I believe in being respectful, attentive and patient as I want all animals to be comfortable while Iâm in their presence. I will never push an interaction or push a pet beyond what they are comfortable with. My goal was very simple! I just wanna make sure that they feel safe and happy even while their owner is away. Iâm currently going to school while working full time at at hospital while ALSO saving for my wedding so naturally that makes my budget very tight. so, Rover is a way to earn extra income while doing something I geniunely love. Being a young adult working toward big dreams can be challenging, so I am grateful for the opportunity to turn my love for animals into something meaningful. I typically work night shifts Sunday-Tuesday so outside of that, I have lots of free time. during the nights that I work, I would of course communicate to the pet parent my limited hours in the evening. But outside those days, I am completely free and I am able to do as many check ins as the pet parent needs. I ensure I read any instructions the pet parent leaves for me. My main goal is to ensure the pet is as comfortable as possible and of course the person to know that best, is the pet parent! I would hate to stray from any schedule a pet has as itâs already stressful enough when a parent is gone. I am really big on communication so if the pet parent wants me to stay in the home the whole time during the visit, or to only have check ins, I will make sure that is communicated.
âRachel 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!â

âAlexis was the perfect dog sitter for my dog. She is very timely, accountable and communicates promptly. My dog is older so I worry more about him when I am away, she put my worries to ease. Would highly recommend her if you are looking for services!â
About: I am an avid hiker and walker that loves to have a dog companion with. I have 40+ years of pet care experience including- vet assistant, boarding kennel and other pet hospital jobs. I have also bred and showed multiple dogs. I am in great physical shape and can handle all dog breeds and ages. I treat every pet like my own and want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they are in good hands! I am semi retired and volunteer at a state park nearby. I am typically available Wednesday through Saturday between 6AM and 6PM and can be flexible. Monday and Tuesday I am available after 2PM. I never bring a pet into an environment where they would be uncomfortable, and if I am dropping in for a visit at a clients home with a pet, I care for the pet as if it is my own. I love getting to know dogs personalities and finding out what they enjoy.
âMegan accepted my last minute booking with amazing communication. She took my call and followed my instructions to perfection. Would rebook in an instant. Thank you again Megan.â

âAnder came to our rescue after a last-minute cancellation left us scrambling to find someone to drop in! Thankfully, Ander was incredibly quick to respond and eager to help us out despite the quick turnaround, so our anxiety was short-lived. Throughout booking to drop in, Ander remained responsive, kept us in the loop, and saved my pups from an uncomfortable day cooped up at home alone. We hope to work with Ander again soon!â

About: I understand the responsibility and trust that comes with caring for someoneâs pet. Iâm someone who takes commitments seriously, pays attention to details, and believes that every pet deserves patience, kindness, and consistency. My background has taught me how to be dependable, organized, and calm in unexpected situations. I work in an environment where communication, problem solving, and taking care of peopleâs needs are part of my everyday routine, and I bring that same mindset into caring for pets. Iâm also someone who enjoys staying active and spending time outdoors. I understand that many dogs need more than just a quick walk they need attention, exercise, and someone who is willing to be present with them. I enjoy walking, being outside, and creating a positive experience for pets while keeping them safe. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. Whether itâs a young pet that needs extra patience and attention, an energetic dog that needs exercise and playtime, or a senior pet that needs a calmer approach, Iâm willing to learn their needs and provide care that makes them feel safe and comfortable. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being treated with respect, attention, and genuine care while theyâre away. Pet care would fit well into my routine because Iâm someone who values responsibility, consistency, and taking care of things the right way. I currently have a structured schedule and Iâm used to managing responsibilities, solving problems, and making sure people can count on me. Even though I havenât had a pet in a long time, I understand how important pets are to their families. I know they are not just animals, they are part of someoneâs home and daily life. I would treat every pet with patience, attention, and respect, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I enjoy being active, spending time outdoors, and building trust with others. I would bring the same level of commitment and care that I bring to everything else I do into taking care of someoneâs pet. When caring for a pet in my clientâs home, I would treat their home and their pet with the same respect and attention I would want for my own\. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I would take the time to learn their schedule, feeding instructions, walking preferences, and any special care they require. I believe consistency is very important for pets, especially when their owners are away\. I would make sure they receive attention, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and a safe environment while following all instructions provided by the owner. Iâm someone who is organized, responsible, and pays attention to details\. My goal would be to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being cared for by someone who is dependable and genuinely wants them to feel comfortable and happy.

âVery very very good service overall. Extremely trustworthy and showed up exactly when she said she would. Returned to very happy pets. Only request would be a little more attention spent to keeping the floors cleaned as discussed. Would absolutely book again in a heartbeat!â


About: Iâve been an animal lover my entire life and grew up with both cats and dogs. Caring for animals isn't just my jobâit's something I'm truly passionate about! I have 3.5 years of hands-on veterinary experience, including 1.5 years as a general practice veterinary technician and 2 years as an emergency and specialty veterinary technician. During that time, I've cared for countless pets with a wide range of personalities, medical needs, and agesâfrom playful puppies and kittens to senior pets requiring extra patience and attention. My veterinary background allows me to recognize signs of illness or distress, administer medications if needed, and provide attentive, knowledgeable care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone keep them company, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'll treat your furry family members as if they were my own and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages for peace of mind. I am currently a full-time veterinary student. I have class every weekday from 7-8am until 3-5pm. I am flexible around my schedule and can care for your pets before and after class during the week. I am also available all day Saturday and Sunday to schedule care. I am able to carry out many requests. If you communicate your needs, I will provide the best care for your loved ones and your home!
âWe are truly grateful for Sheila. We could not have imagined a more perfect person to watch our cats while we were gone. If you are looking for someone who is going to love your pets and your pets will love, Sheila is who to ask.â
About: Iâve been caring for cats and dogs for several decades, as both an owner and pet sitter. I have always been an animal lover. I also have experience in volunteering as a foster parent for the Humane Society of Southern Arizona, taking in both dogs and cats to prepare them for adoption. As a pet owner, I know how important it is to feel that your pets are loved and cared for while youâre not at home. Iâm dedicated to providing reliable care so that you can relax. I am currently working nearby full-time, during the week, however, I am able to look after your babies mornings, evenings,weekends, or overnights. I am available for long walks in the morning or evening as well. Because I have my own pets, I really prefer taking care of pets in their own environment in which they are most comfortable anyway. I feel that itâs important to also make pets feel seen and appreciated during the time youâre with them.
âCan't recommend enough! They were very friendly and got along immediately with my pets. The Rover cards gave me peace of mind and when I noticed a scratch on my cat they responded quickly, remaining very attentive throughout the remainder of the check ins. :)â

About: I have taken care of dogs for over 5 years. Whether it is for family or family friends, I have taken care of many different dog breeds. I am certified in animal CPR. I just graduated nursing school from ASU and would love to watch your furry friends! I wonât start work until october so I am available all day every day to be with them! I will treat your pets just as you do! Whatever you do for them, you can count on me to keep doing that for them! I will happily walk your dogs, or continue any training mechanisms you are trying! I want to make my stay as comfortable as I can for you pets because I know how hard it can be on them for a stranger!

âI'm so glad to have Kaitlynn as our pet sitter, she is so great with our dog! Our dog is a bit anxious and can be standoffish, and Kaitlynn is always really sensitive and knowledgeable. It means a lot to have Kaitlynn caring for my pet and home when I have a long day at work out of the house, Kaitlynn is so comprehensive and professional in her care and work. It's wonderful to be able to trust Kaitlynn's expertise and experience!â

âAllyson is lovely, my grandfathers dog Pegsley who had to stay with me for a month before being rehomed needed walks 3 days a week while I was at work. She adored Allysonâ

Absolutely Wonderful Pet Sitter! Griselda is simply outstanding! We couldn't ask for a more caring, dependable, and trustworthy person to take care of our beloved Jack. She treats him with such kindness, love, and attention, and it gives us tremendous peace of mind knowing he is in such wonderful hands whenever we're away. Griselda is reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely devoted to Jack's well-being. It's obvious that she truly loves animals and takes great pride in providing exceptional care. Knowing that Jack is happy, comfortable, and well cared for makes all the difference to us. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Griselda and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter. She is an absolute gem, and we look forward to having her care for Jack again and again! Thank you, Griselda, for taking such wonderful care of our sweet boy!

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!
Laura took really good care of our pug and kitty (who needs daily medication). Great communication, we got updates on how they were doing. I also appreciated Laura coming over before we left to make sure she knew all of our instructions etc. I would definitely have her watch our pets again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Oro Valley is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your petâs specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,395 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Oro Valley. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your petâs routine and the sitterâs availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your petâs usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while youâre away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent youâd 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, donât 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 Justiceâs 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 Roverâs 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.

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 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 sitterâs 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, youâll 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.
