“Griselda was great with Bruno! Our family dog is 12 y.o. has diabetes and is blind due to the sickness. We were worried about leaving Bruno home while we went out of town, but Griselda’s experience with dogs is amazing. She fed him twice a day and kept being persistent with his eating because Bruno tends to not eat while we’re away, but she was patient and fed him. She is also well versed in administrating insulin shots. Bruno needs his insulin shot twice a day, everyday, and Griselda was experienced and knew how to do it. My family and I will most definitely get her services again! Highly recommend.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Robert is absolutely amazing! He is super helpful, keeps us updated on our pup, and has been very patient with Juno! Couldn't recommend a better sitter than him, and we're so lucky to have him helping us out!”
“Karol was wonderful! Our dog and cat loved her from the second she walked in the door, and we received great pictures and updates as she did her drop-in visits. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
“Kellie rocks! She is patient and flexible! She helped me w doggie vet care in a pinch and always sends photos and updates about my pack! Thank you Kellie! Highly recommended!”
“Danielle always goes above and beyond for my fur babies. I will definitely continue to use her and 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely enjoy their pets!”
“Melayna and Zoe did a great job taking care of Poe and Ghost Pepper while I was away. They did everything I asked them to and got along great with Poe (Ghost Pepper hid the whole time which I expected- hence the name Ghost Pepper! 😆) They also sent daily pics! I would definitely recommend Melayna for cat sitting to anyone!”
“Vanessa is AMAZING!! Always keeping us up to date on the visit with Drekker and how he was. Very flexible and loving. Vanessa will be our go to girl for taking care of Drekker anytime we need!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been something I genuinely love. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies that require constant attention to senior dogs with unique needs. I’ve also helped train puppies, including teaching basic commands, reinforcing good behavior, and building positive routines. I understand that every dog has a different personality, and I take the time to earn their trust while making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. My goal is to build a strong connection with every pet I care for and provide the same patience, affection, and attention I would give my own. Whether your dog is playful and energetic or older and needs extra care, you can count on me to treat them like family. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work part time as a babysitter, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available on weekdays from 6:00 AM to 3:00 PM. This flexibility allows me to provide dependable care, whether it’s morning walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping pets company while their owners are away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to give each pet the attention, love, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I care for every pet as if they were my own by making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. With my own dog, I take him on regular walks, continue his training, keep him clean, trim his nails when needed, and even keep him light grooming. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I typically house sit so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I make sure they stay on their normal routine by taking them outside for potty breaks, going on walks, playing with them, feeding them on schedule, and giving them lots of love and companionship. I believe building trust with both pets and their owners is essential, and I’m committed to providing a safe, reliable, and stress free experience every time.
About: I have been caring for animals since childhood and have always had dogs as part of my family. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, administering basic care, and recognizing when pets need extra attention. I currently have four cats, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and routine. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I’ll care for your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. Whether it’s keeping them active, sticking to their routine, or giving them plenty of affection, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My availability is typically any time on weekends. I do my best to be flexible and can often accommodate requests with advance notice. If you have a specific schedule or timing in mind, feel free to reach out—I’m happy to work with you whenever possible! Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I’ll take the time to follow your instructions carefully so they feel comfortable and secure. I’ll provide plenty of love, attention, exercise, fresh water, and a calm environment while they’re in my care. I also believe in keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for.
“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.”
“⭐️5/5 STARS⭐️ I couldn’t have asked for better care for my highly anxious pup. I receiving daily updates with photos, which kept me informed and reassured. I know Goose is in good hands while I’m away at work. Cambria, spends quality time with him and makes sure he gets the attention and care he needs. Highly recommend Cambria to anyone looking for a caring sitter!"”
“Dani was great at accommodating our needs with our new 9-week old puppy and keeping us updated on how they were doing on their morning with her! we will definitely use her again and refer her to anyone we know ☺️”
About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and strong attention to detail. I make sure each pet feels comfortable and understood, and I take the time to learn their individual preferences, sensitivities, and quirks. Whether your pet needs structured play, slow-paced walks, medication given on schedule, or extra reassurance while you’re away, I’ve got them covered. I’m currently a full-time veterinary student, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m able to fit visits, drop-ins, and walks around my classes, and I always make sure I have dedicated time to give each pet the attention they need. I treat your home with the same respect I give my own. I keep feeding areas clean, tidy up any messes, and make sure the space is safe before I leave. I’m detail-oriented and safety-focused, and I never rush through visits—I want every pet to feel cared for, not just “checked on.”

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!
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!

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.

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.
