About: I grew up around animals and am comfortable working with various breeds of dogs and cats. I also have experience working with younger animals and senior animals. I currently work full-time, but I still love spending my free time caring for pets! I’m available before and after work on weekdays, with full availability on Mondays and flexible availability on weekends. Please free to reach out with your requested dates! I will be accommodating to any of your pets needs. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions that you may have at any time.
“Kaleigh was great! My first time working with Rover, but she made my vacation less stressful because after a couple days I had no concerns. She was responsive and communicated very well. She helped with any special requests which definitely made me feel better about leaving for a trip. I would definitely recommend her and would work with her again!”
“Cristina looked after my dog Snickers for several days. She was always on time for her check in and gave me pics and updates on how things were going with my special pup. Highly recommended her for anyone needing a responsible person to look after their fur babies. Will definitely request her the next time I have to go out of town. Thumbs High!!”
About: I’ve have multiple dogs through out my life, I currently only have one. He loves play dates and I take him out constantly to go potty and on walks, I do let all pets on my furniture and plenty of toys for them to play with. I am currently a student but since the semester is over I am available all week at any time. I am in central Phoenix so I can easily get to places around the valley to check in on your pets or house them ☺️ I have a crate for my dog and would be able to crate yours if needed, I can adjust play time and walk time depending on the needs of your dog.
“Kim was fantastic to communicate with. It gave us a peace of mind knowing she has experience with energetic young dogs. Our pup had a great time with her and she gave us consistent check ins and photos. She was flexible, prompt, kind and warm. We highly recommend working with Kim.”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I grew up with both dogs and cats, and now have three very spoiled (and very loved) cats of my own. I’ve also worked as a kennel technician at a vet clinic, so I’m comfortable caring for animals with all kinds of personalities, routines, and needs. I’m the kind of sitter who will treat your pet like they’re my own through lots of love, playtime, snuggles (if they’re into that!), and plenty of updates while you’re away. Whether your pet is shy, silly, high-energy, or just wants someone to hang out with, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. 🩷 I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care throughout the week. I work remotely two days a week, making it easy to fit in lunchtime visits, walks, and check-ins. On my three in-office days, I’m available before and after work, and I have more flexibility on weekends. I know pets aren’t “just pets” they’re part of our families and an extension of the people who love them. I take that responsibility seriously and will always treat your pet with the same care, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. Their safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I also know that, just like people, every pet has their own personality, preferences, routines, and quirks. I’m more than happy to accommodate whatever helps your pet feel happiest and most secure in their own home, whether that means sticking closely to their usual schedule, preparing meals a certain way, giving them extra playtime or cuddles, or simply respecting that they prefer a little space. My goal is to keep their world feeling as familiar and comfortable as possible while you’re away, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re safe, loved, and genuinely well cared for.
“Alma was great with our 2 kitties. She quickly responded any questions we had and went out of her way to come back to make sure our cats medication was successfully administered. Would book again!”
“I was lucky to find James on Rover. He accepted my last minute urgent situation and kindly provided excellent sitting and care for my little Papillon. Extended his time and services to get dog food and treats while I was gone all week. He is someone to trust and I recommend him !!! Denise P.”
About: I’ve taken care of pretty much any kind of dog since I was 7 years old - beagles, dachshunds, my current mini golden doodle. Spending time with dogs is really one of my favorite things to do, and I seem to be approachable for them because they often gravitate towards me! I’m a medical student in the middle of interviews for residency programs, so I have spare time and need money to pay off my loans! I don’t have a set schedule at the moment because of this, but am usually available most weekdays and weekends with flexible hours to largely do walks and check-ins. I am pretty much willing to do any services you require for your dog if communicated appropriately! If you’d ever like, they’re welcome to interact with my 3-year-old mini golden doodle, Solo, who is as shy and gentle (and probably fearful, even of the puppies) as they come.
“Alyssa has watched my baby girl, Maple, several times while we were out of state and she’s done such a wonderful job. She has wonderful communication, is very polite and takes such good care of our dog as if she’s her own. Maple loves her so much and always looks so happy in all the photos Alyssa sends. I 100% recommend her and will be using her for all our future pet sitting as long as she’s available ❤️”
“Sherry was so wonderful with Brodie! I had someone fall through last minute and she was willing to help and I could tell Brodie enjoyed her a lot! It was the first time having someone be regular with him and she was so communicative and took lots of cute pictures! Highly recommend and will continue to use her for my future needs!”
About: I have 2 dogs of my own that I take care of and have dog sat for neighbors and friends before! I work well with both big and small dogs! As a nursing student, my schedule is flexible and allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I’m generally free all day on Mondays, most Wednesdays, and weekends, and I can also provide evening/night care depending on my availability. I’m happy to work pet care into my weekly routine and make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need! I care for pets with patience, attention, and plenty of love. In a client’s home, I follow their routine and instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any specific preferences they have for their pet. I also make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and receive plenty of companionship while their owners are away.
“Susi was AMAZING! Our little Scarlett is a rescue and can be apprehensive with new people. You could immediately see Susi’s experience and knowledge during the meet and greet. Susi’s communication and updates were so helpful and sweet. The family loved the photo updates! Cannot recommend or thank Susi enough.”
“Lil is the best and always takes such good care of my babies. I hire her everytime I am away and it gives me piece of mind knowing what a great job she does!! I will always highly recommend her”
“Madison is punctual, trustworthy, and truly has a love for animals! She took great care of our pup and sent photos which is always the best. I would absolutely recommend her to others.”
“I had a great experience working with Samantha! She is very responsive and took the best photos of my cat while I was out of town. I would 100% recommend booking with her for your pets and I would be happy to work with her again in the future!”
About: I have experience caring for pets of many types, sizes, ages, and needs, including senior and special-needs animals. I’ve owned and cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, hamsters, chickens, tortoises, lizards, frogs, and fish. My pup has one eye, and I previously had a dog who was both deaf and blind, which has strengthened my patience and adaptability. I also have a cuddly calico cat that I absolutely adore. All of my pets have been rescues, I have spent time volunteering at animal shelters, and I love attending dog adoption events. Animals bring me so much joy, and I’m always the person asking to give some love to the pets I meet! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll provide attentive, dependable care while following their individual routines and meeting their needs. I currently work part-time as a behavior therapist for children with autism while pursuing a Master of Science in Applied Behavior Analysis. My schedule allows me to provide pet care between client sessions and my graduate classes. I’m able to build pet care into my weekly routine and make sure each animal receives the attention, exercise, and love they need while their owners are away. When caring for pets in their home, I follow owner’s instructions closely and maintain their usual routines as much as possible. I understand that every pet has different needs, preferences, and personalities, so I am sure to provide individualized care based on what makes each pet comfortable and happy. I will always be reliable, attentive, and respectful of your home while making sure your pet receives plenty of care, attention, exercise, and companionship. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

When I come to your home to take care of, play with, and walk your babies I will make sure I am present and showing them love!

I have a cat and had 2 chihuahuas of my own, Isabel and Princess - so I would love to treat your babies as I do mine. When I’m in your home, I will treat it with care and make sure your pets feel safe! I am currently doing this full time and I am available for drop ins and house sitting.

Sherry was so wonderful with Brodie! I had someone fall through last minute and she was willing to help and I could tell Brodie enjoyed her a lot! It was the first time having someone be regular with him and she was so communicative and took lots of cute pictures! Highly recommend and will continue to use her for my future needs!
This was the longest we’ve ever left our cat so we were a little nervous how she’d do, but Nicole took such good care of her while we were away!! She was communicative, took lots of great pictures and gave great updates on feeding and litter box. We will be using Nicole again!!
Julia was amazing! Super kind and calming presence. My husband and I knew that Archer would be safe and sound on our away trip. She’s very responsive to messages, followed all notes, and is flexible with scheduling. We can’t thank her enough and will definitely be rebooking!
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!
Gigi was wonderful! Our first time using Rover and she came over to let our dachshund out and play with him for a bit before putting him back in his crate. She also came by the day before to meet him to make sure he was comfortable! Will continue to book Gigi :)
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! 😻

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Phoenix is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $32 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 October 2026, there are 7,429 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Phoenix. 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 pet’s routine and the sitter’s 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 pet’s 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 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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Phoenix. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
