“We’ve used Lois to housesit for our pets twice this summer! She’s been really wonderful dealing with the hectic mess that is a young puppy who is still potty training and a grumpy cat. We appreciate her care and time spent with each of our pets and feel comfortable having her in the house each time! Will always be looking to use her in the future.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ James was absolutely amazing with Meiko! From the beginning, he was incredibly attentive and communicative, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. He kept me updated, was very responsive, and most importantly, Meiko absolutely loved him! He was also extremely respectful of my home and just genuinely so friendly and easy to work with. I really appreciated the care and attention he gave Meiko while I was away. It’s such a relief finding someone you can trust with both your pet and your home. I will absolutely be booking with James again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and caring sitter. Thank you so much, James! 🐾💕”
“Amanda was awesome! She took great care of my senior dogs and left my home cleaner than it was when I left for vacation. Amanda communicated with me during my trip to let me know the pups were ok and even picked up a few toys for my sweet boy. Will definitely work with Amanda again!”
“Hannah was fantastic! I am incredibly particular as are my dogs. I have high needs dogs, particularly seniors that require extra patience and attention to which Hannah provided exceptional care. She came through to care for my dogs on short notice and went above and beyond to care for them. I trust her and really appreciated how thoughtful, compassionate and patient she was I highly recommend Hannah. she was incredibly attentive and communicative. Again I am someone who’s incredibly particular and she exceeded my expectations. Thank you for everything Hannah.”
“I was so very anxious to leave my little Mocha for the first time. Turns out she had a vacation while my family did the same!! Janelle was wonderful with Mocha, she even stopped by a couple of times, pre vacation, to get acquainted with her before the big day! I received texts and pics while we were away and started to wonder if Mocha even missed me…gladly, of course. Five Well Earned Stars⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Jeff went above and beyond! We needed a last minute house sitter for our 2 dogs for one night and Jeff came in clutch. He was communicative and kept our dogs happy and active. He even watered our plants 😀 10/10 would recommend!”
“Haile was absolutely wonderful! She connected with my dog so easily, and you could tell right away that she truly loves animals. My dog felt comfortable with her from the start, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was attentive, caring, and communicative throughout the entire time.”
“Marlo did an amazing job with my two senior dogs. She went above and beyond my expectation. One of my senior dogs wasn't feeling well and went out of her way to attend to him. She kept me updated the whole time and sent pictures. She is super friendly and trust her completely to contact her again for a house sitting.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats in home settings. I’ve watched dogs for multiple days, including both weekdays and weekends, handling feeding, walks, and maintaining their normal routine. Occasionally watched over more than one dog at a time. I also have experience with watching cats and ensuring they are taken care of multiple days at a time. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and respectful of both your home and your pet’s routine. Since I work full-time during the day, I’m best suited for pets that are comfortable being alone during work hours and thrive with consistent morning, evening, and overnight care. My goal is to keep your pets safe, relaxed, and on their normal routine while you’re away. I work full-time during the day, so I focus on providing reliable morning, evening, and overnight care. My mornings and evenings are structured and consistent, which allows me to stick closely to your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, and attention. On weekends, I have much more flexibility and can spend additional time with your pets while maintaining their schedule. I keep my calendar organized and only take on a limited number of clients to ensure each pet receives dependable, consistent care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping everything as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, walk routines, and care instructions carefully to help your pet feel comfortable and secure. I provide morning and evening care, along with overnight presence when booked for house sitting. I also make sure your home is respected and kept clean while you’re away. You can expect regular updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, relaxed, and well cared for.
“Was great working with Rachel - especially appreciate the last minute support! Our 2 English Bulldogs, Hank and George, we’re excited to meet her and they all got along immediately. Rachel sent pics throughout our time away, took the dogs for walks, gave them medicine, and stayed at the house. Will def use her again!”
“Keira is so fantastic! My dog is still a little bit nervous because Keira is new, but she really takes it in stride and seems to magically make my dog more comfortable. Keira is so patient, kind, and gracious, highly recommended if your pup tends to be the nervous kind.”
About: I'm reliable dependable and dogs always seem to like me. I'm very flexable with my schedule, and have no trouble housesitting as well as dogsitting I have a full time job. Right now I'm teleworking, while our office is being revamped, but will soon return to the office. Once that happens I'll probably be gone from 7:30AM - 6:00PM on weekdays. I usually walk your Dog around 6 AM when I first get up, make sure he has water food and a chew toy when I head out to work, and walk him/her as soon as I get home, and once more before bed. I live alone so I can focus on your pet I live in a 1 bedroom apartment in a clean safe neighborhood. It's a very dog friendly community, and there's a fenced in play area where your Dog can run and play fetch. I also live fairly close to a walking trail. As far as housesitting, I'm willing to go anywhere in the Baltimore metro area. I'm very respectful of other people's property, and as I mentioned I live alone so it's not an issue to spend a week or longer at your house
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful with my difficult puppy for over a week! She kept me updated, sent me pictures, and made me feel comfortable. I cannot recommend her enough for your pet care needs. Thank you so much Sarah!! Alfie and I appreciate you!!!”
“Josephine was reliable and responsive. She very clearly adores animals and this was like a vacation for my dog to walk and hang out with her overnight. Would definitely book again.”
“Samm is amazing with our 4 (yes, FOUR) dogs! All members of our furry family are adopted and come from varying backgrounds. Samm is SO patient with each and every one of them, to include our big (115 lb) baby Scooby, who always needs a few minutes to get close to people. Scooby can take a lot of patience when he's getting to know someone and has taken MONTHS to warm up to people in the past (some people he will NEVER get near) - but not Samm! In just a few minutes, Samm had Scooby snuggling with her and even letter her walk him. Totally unheard of! We are so glad to have found Samm to take amazing care of all of the dogs when we're out of town and we know we can trust her to make sure everyone gets lots of time to play and exercise. Plus, knowing that we worry that Scooby might give people trouble, Samm thoughtfully sends us regular updates to reassure us that everything is going great! We cannot ask for more! :)”
About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for animals! I’ve grown up with lots of cats, dogs & more! I currently work at my local animal shelter as a Behavior trainer, and I treat all of the fur babies as if they were my own until they get their furever home. I care about each of them and only wanna make them feel love special and cared for! Since I'm working part-time right now, I have plenty of open time to dedicate to your fur baby. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. My days are flexible, so I can give your pup my full attention - whether that's a nice long walk, playing fetch at the park, doing food puzzles for mental enrichment, or just hanging out for lots of love and pets while they enjoy a bone. I'm happy to stick to whatever routine makes them most comfortable. As the owner of a 1.5-year-old rescued Doberman mix, I understand how much care, exercise, and enrichment dogs need to thrive. My boy gets daily physical exercise plus mental stimulation through enrichment, puzzle toys, and Kongs. I bring that same standard of care to every pet I watch - just let me know your pet's routine and needs, and I will follow it to the T. As for Safety is always my #1 priority - whether we’re out and about in town or on a quiet hike in the woods.
“Kate was so wonderful to work with. Provided regular updates, and was super sweet to our girl when she was having some tummy issues. Went above and beyond to address it and was so wonderful. It really took the stress out of going away on a trip, and she took great great care of our place. Highly recommend Kate!”
“Jasmine did a great job watching Joey at our house for the weekend we were gone. She followed all instructions, was highly communicative, and we came home to a happy, healthy dog and a clean house. Highly recommend her!”
“Amanda did a great job with our anxious and reactive dog. She handled all of his meds well and even gave him extra breaks and walks outside. He was happy and relaxed when we got home for our trip.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Phoenix is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Phoenix
Victoria became fast friends with our dog, Oscar! Her care was exceptional, even brushing his teeth and administering medications. She communicated with us daily with photos and updates. She even washed and changed towels and linens, and watered our numerous plants. She’s a winner!
Sabrina stayed with my 3 dogs and cat for a week. She took wonderful care of them and the house. She was very responsive, cleaned up everything she used, and even painted adorable pictures of all the animals for us during her stay. Definitely would hire again as she took great care of our needy crew and recommend to anyone else!
Sadie was wonderful!! 10/10! My dogs loved her. She was so proactive and offered to come for a visit to meet them but respectful and also said she could do just a phone call. The dogs just loved her. She sent updates and the most beautiful pictures of them. She went above and beyond! Will use her again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Phoenix
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,966 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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 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.
