“Viviana and her family are absolutely amazing! My pup, Ollie the Border Collie, absolutely loves them (maybe more than he loves me 😭) I have been working crazy hours, but I am so grateful for a safe and fun place to bring my dog. Viviana, thank you so much for your help the past few months–it would've been impossible without your warm and loving hospitality to Ollie. I appreciate your great communication and your willingness to forgive me when I was running a little late 😅”
About: As a dedicated and experienced pet sitter with a strong background in providing attentive care to animals, I bring years of hands-on experience, and am committed to ensuring pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. My professionalism, reliability, and ability to adapt to each pet’s unique needs make me an ideal candidate to provide top-notch pet sitting services. My background goes into a passion of taking care of stray dogs since I was 16, working in shelters and ASPCA during my high school education and walked and sat dogs in busy environments big such as NYC and LA to quiet subsurban neighborhoods, I can confidently say your pet is in good hands. I work from home. I’m completely available on weekends, and holidays as well unless my schedule changes otherwise it will be marked off in my calendar ahead of time. Use my code LYDIAS07383, with pet parents to get $20 off their first booking after you sign up and book with me! Caring for a dog with anxiety has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding in creating a safe and comforting environment. At home, I ensure my anxious dog feels secure by maintaining a predictable routine, providing a quiet space to retreat when overwhelmed, and using calming techniques such as soothing music, gentle reassurance, and interactive toys. These experiences have helped me develop a deep empathy for dogs with unique needs, which I apply when caring for other people’s pets. I am attentive to each dog’s behavior, ensuring they feel relaxed and comfortable, whether through structured activities, gentle walks, or simply offering a calming presence. My goal is always to prioritize their emotional and physical well-being.
“Ashlynn took in my two shepherds on very short notice, and they enjoyed their stay! She was very communicative and took the cutest pictures of our babies. We will very likely book with her again 😊 Highly recommend”
“Brianne was amazing, she was great at communicating and giving me updates throughout the stay. I had a lot of questions as this is my first puppy and I was nervous. She answered all of my concerns and made me and my puppy very comfortable. I will be using her as my puppy sitter again. 5 star service.”
“Carli was quick to respond to my booking request and answered all my questions at our meet & greet time. She has a very calm demeanor and relaxing environment in her home that is perfect for my pup who, admittedly, can range from anxious to overly excited. Carli sent updates throughout the day and Jake had a great time. This was our first stay with anyone outside of our circle and we'll definitely be booking again.”
“Emily was great with my dog Gojo! He had so much fun playing with her dog Peppa. She updated me on how he was doing throughout the day and sent pictures of his stay. He came home after a day of fun tired and it was reassuring to know he was in the care of an amazing sitter. I would definitely book again!”
“Kalen took very good care of my two little ones. He is very communicative and kept me up to date with photos and even some medical issues that arose regarding my girls spay recovery. Kalen made sure my babies were comfortable and accommodated their needs. Will definitely book with him again!”
“Kelly was fantastic with our playful boy Moose! She and her family are so sweet, plus their older pups, for keeping up with our guy. She sent many updates throughout the day and our pup came home happy and tired. Would 100% recommend and plan to have him visit again in the future.”
“I don't think I could have found a more entertaining place for Guido to spend his day. I'm just sad that they're almost an hour's drive for me, or I would continue using them. I think Guido is actually disappointed to leave.”
About: I'm a stay-at-home, homeschooling mother of four, and I have one dog (yellow lab mix) and two cats! I love animals and since we are home majority of the time, your pet will have ample love, attention, and care. MY entire downstairs is tile and we have a backyard, so puppies still needing house training would be acceptable. I'm happy to walk/run with dogs, care for cats, come to your home to do check ins, whatever you're looking for, just ask! I have taken care of animals for family, and I appreciate any details or notes you have so I can provide the very best quality of care for your individual pet. I am home majority of the day with my kids. I have young kids ages 5-11 and I homeschool, so we are home most of the time. I take our dog on a walk or run in the morning around 7am or earlier, and again in the evening if the weather is nice. I have plenty of time for loving and caring for your pet! I offer care in our home, or in yours depending on your needs. Your pet will be exercised, fed, watered, loved, played with, cleaned up after, and all around cared for and adored. I can only provide care to animals who are okay with children and other pets, to keep everyone safe from natural pet instincts to protect themselves. My children have been taught to use only gentle and loving hands with slow approach with adult supervision. In the event we need to leave the house I do require kenneling for dogs if they are known to chew/scratch. I am happy to provide pictures and updates, so that you can rest assured your pet is happy and thriving while you are away.
“such an amazing experience with alondra, i truly recommend her to anyone in her area! she sent pictures & videos throughout the whole day so we felt reassured that he was in good hands!”
“We are extremely happy and satisfied. Sanah took a great care of both of our dogs. We are absolutely rebooking this time overnight stay because of the super service our two dogs received. Sanah sent continues updates and photos during the stay. Can not ask for more than this amazing service, Thank you, Sanah.”
“Martin and his dog "Chewy" were a fantastic match for watching our 3yr old Bernedoodle "Cash". We were vacationing in the area and looking for some day care for our dog while we went to a preseason ballgame. Martin was very good in communicating back and forth and was agreeable to a meet and greet prior to booking through Rover.com. Our dog seemed happy and enjoyed playing with Martin & Chewy. The pictures and updates on how our dog was doing was heartwarming. We immediately booked a second playdate for our dogs and plan to use Martin's service again when we return in the future. He has our recommendation!”
“Noah took great care of our dog Gojo. He sent updates and pictures throughout the day and Gojo loved playing with his dog. He was also quick to respond and communication was easy. Gojo came home happy and tired. I will definitely be using Noah again and would recommend him to take care of your pet.”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Palo Verde commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AZ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 527 sitters in Palo Verde, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
