“Vincent was fantastic with our doggies. We are so grateful to have found him to watch the dogs when we are going somewhere the dogs can’t come with. We would feel good about leaving our fur babies with him again. Thank you Vincent!”

“Sarah did an amazing job with a last minute booking. She took on 3 working dogs, one of whom has heart issues, medications, and special feeding instructions. She and I stayed in communication the whole time and it went off without a hitch…on my end anyways. Sarah was willing to come back in case of any travel issues which I greatly appreciated. Will definitely use her again as I came home to 3 happy dogs!”
“Our 2 dogs and cat were happy and well taken care of. The house was exactly as we left it. Great communication before, during, and after the 3 night stay. We will definitely be using Remus again.”

“Alyssa did a great job taking care of my dog while I was gone! I got pictures, updates, and she even went to get him a new leash because his snapped, so that my boy could still enjoy his walks while I was gone! She went above and beyond and I would highly recommend her to care for your pets. 😊”

“Anna was a wonderful cat sitter for our cat, Yuki, while we were away for a week. We came home to a happy, relaxed cat who had clearly been well cared for and enjoyed Anna’s company—she cuddled with her, which is always good to see! Anna was attentive, responsible, and left our home in excellent condition. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and trustworthy sitter.”

“Gabrielle was wonderful while my husband and I were away for the weekend! She was very communicative and incredibly patient with our cat, who isn’t always the friendliest with guests. She was also very understanding of our dog Teddy’s anxiety and took great care of him, even when he had a few anxious accidents. Our home was exactly as we left it, and she followed all of our instructions perfectly. We would be happy to have her watch our pets again!”

About: Hello! My name is Gabby, and I'm an experienced pet lover with a passion for providing top-notch care to dogs, cats, reptiles and rodents. With 8 years of personal ownership and hands-on experience, I understand the importance of finding a reliable and caring pet sitter. Rest assured, I am here to provide a safe and nurturing environment for your furry or scaly family members. I currently have a 5 year old golden retriever, two indoor cats, and a crested gecko! I love going on long evening and morning walks with my dog(recently I've had to avoid walking at midday due to the heat) or playing with a feather toy with my cats. I am patient and detail oriented. Dog Experience: I have owned and provided dog walking services for 5 years. I am well-versed in handling leash walking, basic training, administering medication, and maintaining a consistent routine. Your pup will receive plenty of attention, exercise, and love during their stay with me. Cat Experience: I have been a cat owner for 8 years and understand the unique needs and many personalities of different kitties. I will make sure your cats feel comfortable and entertained while you're away. Litter box maintenance, feeding schedules, and providing a stress free environment are among my priorities. Reptile Experience: Alongside my love for dogs and cats, I also have experience caring for reptiles. Whether it's monitoring temperature and humidity levels, maintaining clean enclosures, or following specific dietary requirements, I am familiar with the care and attention that reptiles require. I work part time as a barista so my schedule can be a bit random at times! I usually work three days a week, although I'm never away for more than 6 hours at time. On my days off I have full availability and can give as much time as I have to your pets! Sadly I am not able to offer boarding, my house just isn't set up for it at the moment, maybe some day! House Sitting: I am available for house sitting. I'll ensure that your home is well-maintained, while also giving your pets the care, companionship, exercise, and security they need. Drop-In Visits: I offer drop-in visits. Whether it's feeding, administering medication, walking your pets, cleaning a litter box or cage, or simply providing companionship, I'll make sure your pets are well-cared for during my visits. Reptile Care: If you have reptiles that require specialized care, I'm experienced in maintaining their unique habitat and dietary needs. From monitoring temperatures and humidity, to providing a proper diet, your reptiles will be in capable hands. Other animals: I have some experience with rodent care and would feel comfortable caring for your smaller furry pets, my experience is with mice and gerbils but as long as I'm given proficient instructions I would be willing to care for other types of rodents
“Sandra, Thanks for the great care you showed Poppy on her first ever 24 hours without me. She enjoyed her playtime with you and I was so pleased with your awesome communication during my time away. Thank you for making it less stressful for me and so easy for her. Your years of pet caring are fantastic. Jennifer”

“Elise was great. My dog is sweet, but has a rigorous schedule that she was more than willing to accommodate. She left my house perfect and look forward to booking with her again.”

“Ana was a great dog sitter for Hank! She took great care of him and left our house spotless. She was communicative and also very flexible with our timing and an unexpected Internet outage. I would highly recommend Ana to anyone!”


“Laura was wonderful! After meeting her we were very comfortable with leaving our two Shelties with her and having her stay in our home. It was a great relief to find Laura! She was very affectionate with our dogs and showed great attention to understanding the details of caring for them. She bonded with them immediately, and we are sure they missed her after we returned home. Laura stayed in touch while we were away and sent us some really great pictures. We recommend Laura without hesitation!”
“We are very happy Madison agreed to watch our fur army in our home. Her communication was fantastic. She kept us updated on how they were doing and when we arrived back home, our house was very neat and tidy and our fur babies looked like they had a great weekend! We highly recommend Madison and we hope she will be available for the next time we have to go away!”

About: My background in animal care extends well beyond traditional pet sitting. I completed extensive veterinary technology education while working full-time in a large, multi-department veterinary hospital, gaining years of hands-on experience with animals ranging from healthy puppies and routine-care patients to senior, hospitalized, post-op, and medically complex dogs. My subsequent transition into “human” healthcare has further strengthened the attention to detail and standard of care that I bring to every animal entrusted to me. My veterinary experience provided a comprehensive foundation in safe animal handling, canine behavior/temperament recognition, medication administration, medical-condition awareness, post-op care, and the identification of subtle changes that may indicate pain, anxiety, or physical distress. I am comfortable recognizing changes in behavior and overall presentation that may warrant closer observation or communication with a pet-parent. I am comfortable caring for dogs across all ages, sizes, and levels of need, including puppies, senior dogs, animals requiring additional behavioral consideration, and pets with established medical or mobility needs. My experience includes oral and injectable medication administration, incision and wound care, mobility assistance, post-operative monitoring, and incontinence-related care. Whether providing a walk, drop-in visit, extended sitting, or boarding, I approach pet care with the same principles that have guided my professional healthcare experience: attentive observation, appropriate precautions, consistency, clear communication, and respect for individualized care requirements. My goal is not simply to supervise a pet while an owner is away, but to provide knowledgeable, responsible care while maintaining the routine, safety, and level of attention each individual animal requires. I recently completed my Bachelor of Science in Respiratory Care and am currently preparing for my board examinations, which allows me a highly flexible schedule and the ability to be home much of the time. At present, I have considerable availability for walks, drop-in visits, boarding, and other pet-care needs, and I am able to adjust my study schedule around confirmed bookings. Once I begin working in the hospital, my anticipated schedule will consist of three scheduled shifts per week, leaving the remaining four days largely open and predictable for pet care. I do not have children or other routinely changing obligations that would interfere with confirmed bookings. Any known limitations to my availability will always be communicated in advance, and with clear communication regarding your pet’s schedule and needs, I am currently able to accommodate a wide range of scheduling requests. Safety and attentive supervision are priorities in our home. Between my husband and me, our dogs are never left home without one of us present, and I maintain that same standard of supervision for pets entrusted to my care. I would not leave a pet unattended while I am responsible for their care. We have a fully fenced backyard and maintain a clean, organized, and uncluttered home and outdoor environment. With a five-month-old puppy of our own, our home is consistently kept pet-safe, with unsafe or inappropriate items secured and inaccessible. I am also careful and deliberate when managing interactions between animals and never assume unfamiliar dogs can simply be left together unsupervised. Introductions, outdoor access, feeding, and shared spaces are appropriately supervised, with the safety and comfort of each individual pet remaining the priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain the same standard of supervision, respect for their environment, and attention to safety.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Phoenix
Sophia is an exceptional pet sitter. She stayed at my house and took great care of my dog who felt comfortable with her right away. She took him on walks, played with him in the backyard, and gave him plenty of snuggles and attention. She sent me photo and video updates of my sweet boy. When I came home, everything was taken care of and my dog and my house looked great. I highly recommend Sophia for any pet sitting needs.

Kristen is terrific! I was visiting from out of town and needed a sitter to spend an entire evening with my four Frenchies while I attended a Britt Festival concert. Her responsiveness and communication was exceptional. She is very thorough and ensures she has all the information necessary to provide outstanding care. My dogs loved her immediately and they had a great evening together. I highly recommend Kristen and will definitely request her help again on my next visit.

We were so happy with Atlas (Alyssa) and the care she provided for our dog, Marvin Gayy. As a French Bulldog with a few extra needs, Marvin requires a little more attention, and Atlas was confident, attentive, and never hesitated to ask questions when needed. She kept us updated with photos, and Marvin seemed to really enjoy getting to know her. We felt at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We'd happily book with Atlas again!

Sarah was incredible with our squishy-faced girl! She even saved our bacon with some extra check-ins when our flight unexpectedly changed/severely delayed. Sarah helped with our HelloFresh delivery and went above and beyond to tidy up. Very impressed, and beyond grateful for her help & care!

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!

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 .

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.
