“We are so grateful to have found Aayla! She stayed in our home and cared for our senior cat for an extended length of time, we felt so at ease and relaxed knowing she was there. She was incredibly thorough as our cat needs daily medication and other necessary special attention due to her age that Ayla handled with extremely compassionate care. Beyond her expert pet care she is incredibly courteous and left our home sparkly clean, and even brought in packages and took a delivery for us while we were gone. She does a wonderful job communicating with photos and videos daily and is just an all around delight to work with. We couldn’t recommend Aayla more strongly and will book her for all our future needs!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to every pet. I understand that each animal has a different personality, comfort level, and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m very reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, and I know how important trust is when someone is caring for a beloved pet. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with different energy levels and needs, including shy animals, high-energy dogs, and senior pets who may need a gentler approach, extra patience, or medication reminders. I focus on creating a calm, positive experience for both pets and owners by providing consistent care, updates, and lots of affection and attention. Pet care fits very well into my routine because I have a flexible part-time schedule that gives me plenty of availability throughout the week. I’m available after 5pm Monday through Thursday, available all day on Fridays, and completely open on weekends for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, or extended care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any household rules or routines the pet is used to. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and exercise while also keeping the home clean, secure, and respected. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means active play, reinforcing basic routines for younger pets, or providing a calm and comforting environment for more anxious pets.

About: I got my first dog at age 11 and fell in love! I’m having withdrawals with my dog being in illinois. My sister is a vet tech and I’ve had many pets throughout my life. I don’t have a yard, but I live near a park that I can drive your baby to. I don’t smoke or have kids so I will treat your pet like a baby! Pets are allowed on furniture and are able to sleep with me. I will spam you with pictures and will do whatever I can to make your baby as happy, safe, and comfortable as possible. I am currently a mental health counseling intern and am in the office most days of the week, but I am able to come visit and let your bestie out if/when I am in office I am currently an intern to become a mental health therapist! I work on site most days of the week, but am able to come visit your baby throughout the day to make sure they aren’t lonely. Since I don’t work a traditional 9-5, I will be able to spend lots of time with your bestie I have a small gravel area behind my house for immediate potty breaks, but can drive your fur baby to a park that’s two minutes away twice a day for long walks.

“Dina was the right choice to care for my beloved Violet (cat). From the start of our interaction, she was very communicative and enthusiastic about boarding Violet in her home while I was out of town for 5 days. I had never boarded Violet in the past and it's safe to say that Dina made me feel comfortable right away. I received frequent updates and she made time to do live video calls at my request as well which gave me peace of mind in my absence. Most importantly, when I returned from my trip and retrieved Violet, she was safe and healthy. If you are considering boarding your cat with Dina, you have my highest recommendation based on my recent experience.”

About: Hi! My name is Juliann and I’m a 23 year old that has spent her entire life dedicated to many pets. At the moment I have two bunnies, two dogs and two cats, but I have also owned/cared for guinea pigs, hamsters and chickens. I am very patient with all animals and would love to help keep your pet safe while you are away, whether it’s on a vacation or just everyday work. I know what it takes to care for different breeds and ages, as puppies and kittens have a lot of extra energy and need time to be trained. If you need any medications or special needs/concerns for your animals I am great with following directions and giving your pet what they need throughout the day. I work from home and my hours are flexible so I can take care of your pets whenever you will need! I have a lot of time and attention to give them! I have a fenced in small yard and I also have my own cats, dogs and bunnies! My home is very pet friendly and whenever I pet sit in your home I’m very good at keeping things clean and making sure your home is better then how it was when you left! I love to send updates constantly such as photos and videos of your pet so that you know that they are doing good and are being loved and attended to!

About: Hi! I’m María Camila, a veterinarian from Colombia and a passionate animal lover. I have experience caring for dogs and cats and run a small business providing personalized attention, fun walks, and lots of love while their owners are away. I treat every pet as part of my family, making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved at all times. Your furry friend will be in good hands! I make sure every dog’s day is structured, happy, and safe. This includes regular walks, playtime, and mental stimulation according to their energy and needs. I follow their usual feeding, bathroom, and rest schedules, so they feel comfortable and secure. I also provide plenty of love and attention, and if a dog needs special care like medication or a specific diet, I am experienced in giving it. When pets are with me at my home, I create a warm, safe, and loving environment where they feel like part of the family. Depending on the service, I can provide one-on-one attention, supervised playtime, cozy resting areas, and consistent routines. I always make sure they are comfortable, happy, and cared for according to their individual needs, whether it’s a short visit, daycare, or overnight stay.

“Alicia was absolutely amazing while we were away! She took such thoughtful care of our cats - sending plenty of updates, sharing the sweetest photos, and making sure they felt comfortable and loved while we were gone. She even went above and beyond by bringing in our outdoor cushions during a storm to keep them from blowing away - such a kind and proactive gesture. We felt completely at ease knowing our home and pets were in her hands. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: With over a decade of experience as a nurse and a lifetime of loving and caring for animals, I bring compassion, reliability, and attention to detail to every pet I care for. My own cat, Mellie, is 11 years old and has been my travel buddy across the country on countless assignments – so I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. Whether your pet needs belly rubs, a calm presence, or someone confident giving medications or handling special needs, I’m here to help. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, affection, and plenty of love. Let me know how I can make your time away easier for both you and your pet! I work 4 days a week at the hospital and have been looking to get in the extra steps. I am free evenings after 5 on week days and flexible most weekends and holidays. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your animals and your space with the same care and respect I give my own. Whether it’s cats, dogs, or both, I follow your routine closely to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible—feeding, walks or playtime, medications, litter scooping, cleanup, and all the love and attention your pet needs while you're away. I’m also happy to bring in your mail, water plants, and keep an eye on your home to give you peace of mind. As a nurse, I’m detail-oriented, reliable, and understand the importance of trust when someone is caring for what matters most to you.

About: I grew up on a farm in South Dakota, so caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember! I own a marketing agency and work from home, which allows me to be present throughout the day and provide your pets with plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and personalized care. I’m also an avid runner, so if your dog enjoys a little extra exercise, I’m happy to incorporate runs into their routine! I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while keeping you updated and giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet in my care with the same love and attention I give my own! I also have a mini dachshund and a Balinese cat who are both well-socialized and comfortable around other animals. 🐾 I own my own marketing agency and work from home, so I have a super flexible schedule! I’m home throughout most of the day and can easily work feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention into my day. Your pets won’t be left alone for long periods of time! I have a dog and cat of my own, so I completely understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets! I’m very attentive to each pet’s routine, boundaries, and any special instructions you give me. My pets are friendly with other animals, and I’ll always make sure everyone is comfortable and has their own space when needed. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own! 🐾

I’ve completed numerous stays through TrustedHousesitters, caring for dogs with all kinds of personalities, routines, and needs.

I’m very used to working with all types of animals and adapting to whatever their care routine looks like. I’m a college student with a completed bachelor’s degree, and pet care has been the one constant I’ve kept up with throughout school and work because it’s something I truly enjoy. I’m reliable, communicative, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, sticking to a specific routine, or just keeping your pets company, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. My Schedule is very flexible and i am doing full time animal care. I work at a dog training facility so around the clock I am with animals. I care for your pets as specifically and uniquely as you need me to. I do understand that each pet has their own personality and specific care instructions. Whatever you need as far as walking, playtime, feeding, bathing instructions I could follow as closely as necessary. I often travel as well, and I understand how important it is to have your furry everyone cared for and loved while you’re gone.

Kaleigh watched my two cats and was absolutely wonderful. She provided photos and checked in to clarify information about their food. My one cat liked her immediately at the meet & greet and my super shy cat even let her pet him (which is huge)! I felt like my cats were well taken care of and I would hire Kaleigh again!

Maria was absolutely wonderful taking care of four kitties! Managing our three cats—plus a temporary visitor—along with each one's individual needs and a few household tasks is no small feat, but Maria handled everything with grace and exceptional care. She kept us well-informed throughout our trip, giving us total peace of mind. Our family loves Maria, and we couldn't recommend her more highly!

Natalie is my dream pet sitter. I had a good feeling after our initial visit that she’d give my kitty attention and care beyond just feeding her and providing other basic services (I.e., cleaning the litter box) while I was away. Since it was a longer trip, it was importantbto me that it would be someone who really cared and someone trustworthy as I’ve had some not so great experiences with pet sitters. Natalie exceeded my hopes— she was absolutely wonderful, sending me daily updates, asking questions about concerns (my kitty had some eye ‘buggers’ that developed, she was reliable and consistent and this helped my cat trust her. When I came back, I came home to the kitchen counter that had been tidied up and the bathroom hand towel carefully folded — little touches that mean so much. Thank you for everything Natalie, for going above and beyond, and for allowing me to relax while I was away, knowing my cat was in good hands! 😻

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Phoenix

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Phoenix is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $30 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 pet’s 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 986 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Phoenix. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Phoenix. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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.

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 sitter’s 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, you’ll 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.
