“We loved Angela! It was our first time using someone from Rover to do boarding at our home, and she was amazing! We have two dogs with one being slightly special needs, and Angela got him to warm up which is no easy feat. Between giving him his meds, and making sure the dogs got lots of exercise; the boys were in great hands and we will absolutely be asking Angela to dog sit for us in the future!”
“Aayla is actually my dream pet sitter. She was the perfect level of communicative, she kept me in the loop about anything she felt I should know about, and was so respectful and responsible towards my home on top of being super sweet and responsible with my pets. I was gone for stressful family wedding weekend and Aayla made sure I did not have to worry about my pets for even a second while I was busy with that. Highly recommend hiring Aayla as your pet sitter!!”
“Brianna was our first sitter and gave us a great experience! She took a few pictures and communicated how our pup was doing while we were away. She also left our home the same way we left it. I would book with her again!”
“Alissa did a great job! Our pup had a hard time with us being gone but she took great care of him! Alissa communicated with us while we were gone and made me feel better about being away! Our house was in perfect condition when we got home and our pup was happy!”
“Alyssa was fantastic. Her communication was amazing from start to finish and she went above and beyond to make sure my pets were comfortable and cared for. This was my first experience with Rover and I was nervous, but Alyssa made me feel so comfortable. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing Beau and Augie were well cared for and safe. 10 out of 10 experience. Thank you Alyssa!”
“Meghan took great care of my rescue dog, Mysty while I was away for 5 days. Mysty was chill, well rested and delighted to see me when I got home - but not at all anxious or stressed out. Mehan is so loving and attentive, sending pics of my pup while I was gone. She also took great care of my home while she stayed and made use of the dog puzzles. Will be looking to her for future Mysty-sitting!”
“Kim was a great sitter! She was punctual, communicative, courteous, clean, and clearly cared about our dogs. Moreover, our dogs took to her immediately! I highly recommend her if you need someone to take great care of your doggos. She will do a fantastic job.”
“Alyssa was amazing! She took the best care of our boys and sent regular updates so I knew how they were doing. She has extensive experience with pets and I had every confidence in her ability to handle anything that came up while we were away.”
“Vincent was fantastic! He came over on his morning break to meet my dogs and I was out of town by noon with peace of mind. I will be booking him again and I cannot recommend him enough. He left my dogs happy and my house clean! Thank you so much Vincent!”
“Another successful stay with Will! Our pups were genuinely excited to see Will…so much so, I don’t think they even noticed we left! Will was consistent with his communication, sending photos & videos & went above and beyond to ensure pills were administered on schedule while we were away. We had a trip free of anxiety thanks to Will & his care. We found a gem in a sitter!”
“Rosa was amazing with my 1 year old Pug at my home! She was very caring and detail oriented, followed my instructions well and left my apartment looking amazing! Definitely recommend:)”
“Patrick is always a pleasure to have take care of the pups when I’m away. I know they’re in great hands, and they absolutely love him! He also leaves the house as I left it, which is such an added bonus. Highly recommend!”
“Alyssa is absolutely amazing. We’ve used her a few times now. Recently our dog sitter cancelled the day we were suppose to fly out and Alyssa stepped in and helped us immensely! Can’t thank her enough!”
“Hilary was fantastic! Our pups were immediately comfortable with her at the meet and greet and were not anxious when we got home from vacation. Our trip was extended one day due to illness and she was able to be flexible and stay an additional day, which was a lifesaver. She snuggled so they wouldn’t miss us too much, went for walks, cut fresh veggies for treats, and even had to give an unplanned bath to our mischievous girl. I highly recommend Hilary for competent pet sitting, professional communication, and outstanding helpfulness and flexibility. We appreciate her care and attention to detail so much and we had no concerns with leaving for a week after her first daily update and the content looks on the our puppers’ faces.”
About: Hi there, my name is Jacob, and I have been caring for pets since I was a child - I have owned both dogs and cats, and first started pet-sitting when I was in my teens. I dearly love all animals and can’t wait to meet your furry pal - rest assured, we’ll have a great time together, and you’ll be able to relax knowing your best friend is well taken care of! I am a teacher on summer break, so I have lots of time to look after your furry friends, and I am new to Phoenix so I am very keen to explore with your dog! I am comfortable with fur babies of all shapes, sizes, breeds, and ages and understand the importance of daily play, exercise, and companionship for all our critters.
“Dane was a great pet sitter. He sent plenty of update pics, listened to instructions very well, and took good care of the house. My pets seem like they were at ease with him there and they were healthy and happy once I got back home. I will definitely hire him the next time I go out of town.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Phoenix is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Phoenix
Brianna took such great care of Charlotte this weekend! She was incredibly accommodating by coming to our apartment and even bringing Rolo so Charlotte could spend time with a friend. Communication was quick and easy throughout the stay, and she left everything clean and tidy. Most importantly, I know she gave my baby girl Charlotte lots of love and attention. I felt completely at ease knowing Charlotte was in such caring hands. I would absolutely book with Brianna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and loving pet sitter!
Rachel is the most caring and attentive petsitter. We always come back to happy, well cared for pups and an immaculate home. During her stay she is always super communicative and provides photos. Rachel is the best and we always use her for our pet sitting needs!
Sherry was amazing. She took such good care of our girls. We have a laid back 10 year old and a rambunctious 1 year old. Sherry handled the two of them with such good care. The house was well taken care of too. It was a long time to be away but Sherry sent daily updates with numerous pictures so we knew what was happening at home while we were away. We would highly recommend Sherry to do house sitting. Simply amazing!!
Sydney was a pleasure to work with. She was professional, organized sent updates and pictures of her and Gus on walks and play. I felt very comfortable with her watching Gus and my house while away. When I arrived home everything was clean orderly and Gus was happy 🐾🐾
Thank you Harrison for the great job you did taking care of our pups for 18 full days and nights. You even helped with keeping the pool maintained after a storm that would have caused havoc if not addressed. You kept us always updated and even cleaned the house before we got home. Can't say it enough. Thank you.
Mark was amazing and we couldn't have asked for a better companion for Maisie! He took excellent care of her, and was extremely communicative, sending us sweet photos daily and giving us detailed information of her meals, walks, etc. He went above and beyond, helping with household chores as well. What a gem! We would hire him again in a heartbeat!
Ynez was absolutely wonderful, and we couldn’t have asked for a better house and dog sitter. She stayed in our home for eight nights, took excellent care of our dog, made sure he received his daily medication, and gave us complete peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. She sent us daily updates with photos, which we really appreciated. She also went above and beyond by watering our potted plants every day and taking care of our home while we were away. When our travel plans changed at the last minute, Ynez was incredibly flexible and agreed to stay an additional two nights, which we really appreciated. She was reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring throughout the entire stay. Overall, it was an outstanding experience, and we would absolutely book Ynez again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter.
Angela is amazing! Very caring and amazingly attentive to our dog who's on a limited activity restriction as they recover from TPLO surgery. Angela followed all of our notes and kept me informed throughout the day. We look forward to having her take care of our dog again.
Hilary took wonderful care of my dog, Gracie, while I was away. Although there were a few scheduling challenges due to her unexpectedly starting a new job, she was upfront about everything, communicated well throughout, and took full accountability. I really appreciated her honesty and willingness to work through the situation. Most importantly, Gracie absolutely adored her. It was obvious she received so much love, attention, and excellent care. Hilary followed all of my instructions carefully, kept me updated, and made sure Gracie was comfortable and happy. Knowing my pup was in such caring hands gave me real peace of mind. I would definitely recommend Hilary to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and trustworthy pet sitter.
Vincent is the BEST! He is kind, communicative, and made me feel so comfortable leaving my ba ies with him. He didn't bat an eye at the quirks of my animals. And I came home to animals that were not stressed out, but comfortable and calm which is not usually the case. Thank you Vincent, for your gentle care of Maggie and Wilbur. :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Phoenix on Rover is $51.06 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 5,055 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Phoenix. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Phoenix walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Phoenix maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Phoenix choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
