About: Hi there! I’m Hailey, I currently work at an animal shelter and have worked at a dog & cat boarding place in the past. I am very experienced with caring for all sizes and breeds of dogs! I also have experience giving oral medications to dogs and am CPR certified as well. I work full time from 8-4 Mondays and 8-5 Tuesdays, Thursdays, & Sundays. So my availability would be before or after those times. Or anytime on Wednesdays, Fridays, & Saturdays. I am always excited to meet new animals! I always treat them like they are my own pets and will take great care of them!
About: We’ve always had dogs and cats growing up, so pet have always been a regular part of my everyday life! I know that sometimes this little things like walks or consistent feeding schedules can be the hardest part of having a pet! Allow me to take that weight from your shoulders! I have extensive experience with large dogs and puppies as well! I regularly housesit for homes with multiple animals and multiple species; dogs, cats, fish, bunnies, gerbils, and hamsters too! I’m currently working part time, but planning and scheduling are important to me. I am more often available in the mornings any day of the week. I value being consistent and reliable so I will only post availability that I’m sure will work! I will make sure to bring your pet everywhere with me! Clingy pets are my bread and butter! I have no problem hanging out as long as needed to always have an eye on your pets when they are in my care.

About: I've grown up around animals (cats, dogs, & snakes) and actively cared for them for as long as I can remember! I currently own 2 cats and foster three more, one of whom has special needs. My partner and I also have a room full of fish tanks, both fresh and saltwater, so finned friends are no problem. I have owned reptiles previously, so I am open to a wide variety of pets (or plants) in all shapes and sizes. My availability is very open, since pet-sitting is my primary job. Weekends or weekdays work equally well for me. I will structure my schedule around whatever pet I am house-sitting for, to give you the peace of mind that they're healthy and happy while you aren't home. Each animal is unique— I love spending quality time with them so I can get to know their individual personalities and quirks. I enjoy putting in the extra effort to earn their trust. I am experienced with elderly pets, and can give medications if necessary. I can help maintain long-haired pets' coats. I have seen all sorts of pet-related messes, and I have no problem cleaning them up. I will gladly learn the needs of each pet, and adapt to make them as comfortable as possible while you're away!
About: Hey y’all! I’m a kind, responsible, fun loving gal who loves the outdoors, sports, and animals! I’ve had dogs my whole life and have been pet sitting since middle school and house sitting since high school. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. I have even helped my old roommates dog give birth to a litter of 9 beautiful puppies and spent 8 weeks raising them. I would love to help you out any way I can! I’m currently working full time but am off everyday no later that 2:30pm. I have plenty of afternoon availability to play with your doggos and I am available to board anytime after 2:30. Or if you need someone to watch your house I’m absolutely able to do so. I workout and take walks everyday and would love to have a furry friend as company to walk and play with. I have a small fenced yard and live within 5 minutes from multiple different parks. When boarding I do prefer crate trained dogs. When visiting your home I am able to drive your pets to a nearby park, walk them through the neighborhood, or if you have a big yard even better! Whatever you are most comfortable with/prefer when watching your fur babies.
“Janelle and her sister were so attentive to my pets and their needs! I felt so comfortable while away knowing that that they were cared well for. My dogs weren't stressed when we got home. I loved get the pictures she sent while we were away!”
About: Im a mom to a 4 yaer old German Shepherd, she has taught me a lot, from taking care of her to taking care of me as my ESA. Taking care of my pet is a daily joy. From morning cuddles to evening walks, each moment spent caring for them fills my heart with happiness, just like our furry friends take care of us I wish to di the same for them. When caring for pets, whether in my home or at a client's home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and well-being. Here's how I typically approach it: 1. **Comfortable Environment:** I ensure that the environment is pet-friendly, providing cozy bedding, toys, and familiar surroundings to reduce stress. 2. **Regular Exercise and Play:** Pets need exercise and mental stimulation, so I schedule regular walks, playtime, and activities based on their needs and energy levels. 3. **Nutrition and Hydration:** I follow feeding schedules provided by the owner, ensuring pets have access to fresh water and appropriate food. 4. **Medication and Special Needs:** If required, I administer medications as instructed by the owner and attend to any special needs such as grooming or medical care. 5. **Safety and Security:** I maintain a safe environment by pet-proofing areas and keeping hazardous substances out of reach. I also ensure all doors and gates are secure to prevent escape. 6. **Regular Updates:** I keep pet owners informed with updates, photos, and messages to reassure them that their pet is in good hands. 7. **Emergency Preparedness:** I'm prepared for emergencies with knowledge of local veterinary services and contact information, as well as understanding any specific medical conditions the pet may have. Overall, I strive to create a loving and nurturing environment where pets feel secure and cared for, whether they are in my home or their own.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I’ve helped care for my family dog for the past 7 years, so I understand the daily responsibility, attention, and love that dogs need to feel happy and comfortable. In addition to caring for my own dog, I’ve also house-sat and watched dogs for others, including taking them on regular walks, sticking to feeding schedules and breakfast/dinner routines, giving them plenty of attention and playtime, and helping administer medications when needed. I know how important consistency and trust are when someone is caring for your pet, and I always do my best to make dogs feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owners are away. I genuinely love dogs and enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and routine. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or more calm and cuddly, I’ll make sure they receive attentive, reliable care and lots of affection. I work a full-time 9–5 job during the week, but I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet care in the evenings after work after 5:30. I’m also available for overnight stays during the week if needed, though I would be away during typical work hours (approximately 7:30 AM–5:30 PM). On weekends, I have much more flexibility and am available for walks, drop-ins, sitting, overnights, and extended care as needed. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and make sure they receive dependable, attentive care while you’re away. I’ve been caring for dogs for years through both personal experience and dog sitting for others, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. I do my best to create a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away. Whether a dog is playful and energetic or prefers calm cuddles and quiet time, I’m happy to match their personality and routine. I also understand how important consistency is for pets, so I take owners’ instructions seriously and always respect boundaries, routines, feeding schedules, walk preferences, medication needs, and any house rules. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible and provide care that feels like a natural extension of their home environment.
“Ember was so attentive and treated our kitties like they were her own. She also sent very thoughtful and thorough updates while we were away. I will definitely rebook with her in the future. Thank you Ember! ❤️”

About: Hi there! I’ve had worked as a veterinary rehab assistant for 3 years, caring for both dogs and cats as they heal and recover. This experience has taught me so much about animal behavior, comfort, and how to give pets the patience and attention they deserve. At home, I’m also a proud cat mom to two sweet kitties, so I know firsthand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family members. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or making sure they stick to their routines, I treat every pet like my own. ✨ Availability: • All week (Sunday-Saturday): Full-time availability for pet care so you can take a break and relax. • Overnights: I’m available to stay with your pets overnight. In your home, I follow your pets’ normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. That includes feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, and any medications or special care they may need. I make sure to keep your home tidy and treat it with the same respect I would my own.

“Sam is the only person that we trust to watch our dogs and he does such an excellent job each time. We've been using Sam for years and plan to continue to use him in the future.”

“Title: Amazing Care and Attention to Detail! Review: From the very first meet and greet, Kyra made a fantastic impression on both us and our pups! She has a warm and caring energy that our dogs picked up on right away. Our husky, who loves attention, was thrilled with the scratches and pets from Kyra, and my shy little puppy, who’s usually reserved with new people, even warmed up to her quickly. Kyra's check-ins are thorough and filled with thoughtful updates, which gives us peace of mind knowing our pets are in such caring hands. If you're looking for someone who will spoil your dogs and treat them like their own, Kyra is the perfect choice!”

About: I've had pets since I was born and as soon as I was able, I did everything I could to take care of them. Once I got old enough, I began pet sitting for family friends and neighbors which includes feeding pets, taking them on walks, bathing them, etc. I have moved recently and am living without pets for the first time in a while and feel as if I am missing a part of my life. I am a full time college student but have mostly open availability except for Thursdays. Otherwise, I am only busy after 5 on Wednesdays and before 1 on Tuesdays. When watching your pet, I will do everything I can to provide the same love and care that you do. I will give them my utmost attention, exercise them, love them, and take every step necessary to providing them with full care.

“Thank you so much for such a great first experience with this app! Seritta did such a great job taking care of my fur babies. She was great at communicating, sent pictures, gave my boys some play time and everything! Would recommend!”

About: I have cared for dogs all my life. I successfully raised two dogs on my own. Neighbors, friends, and family have always relied on me to help with their dog care needs. I have just graduated from pharmacy school and am studying for my board exam. I am available weekdays and weekends all throughout the day, whatever your dog needs. I will maintain daily routines with feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, and play time. I will uphold safety protocols and will respect your household’s boundaries.
About: I took care of my neighbors pets all my life. House sitting, sometimes just going over to let them outside. I’m trusted with pet care I work full time but off on most weekends, so I’m free most weekends. Usually off during the week by 3:30 pm. Major holidays I’m off as well I prefer to house sitting dogs at the clients place. That is preferred just because the dogs are already in a good environment at their house. I have two dogs currently and my mom lives at home as well.
About: There is not a time in my life that I do not remember having an animal in my life. I believe pets are family members and should be treated with love and kindness. I have over 5 years of experience as a veterinary technician and have worked with dogs and cats of every age and temperament. I am currently a stay at home mom of one human baby and 4 fur babies, so my schedule is relatively open! I am currently a stay at home mother of one. I available to walk or check in any time during the day every day of the week for any baby friendly pets or any evening after 4pm for any pets who are not baby friendly. On walks or check ins, my baby will be in a contained chest carrier and unable to interact with pets. I have worked in the veterinary feild for over 5 years and have always treated every pet like my own. I give lots of love and make sure all of their needs are met, while respecting any signs of fear or discomfort the animal may show.

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.
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!
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
