Tom took wonderful care of our Pup KC on his drop in visit. Our pup KC usually doesn't warm up to some one new right away, but when he met Tom he immediately approved with lots of tail wags and a big smile. .We definitely will be used by Tom in the future to care if our boy. 😀

This was our first time with Therese. We recently relocated and had to be gone for a few days. We have two very spoiled cats, one of which has not adjusted to the move. We were concerned about leaving them but Therese but all our worries to rest. She spent a lot of “love” time with them, made sure they had their medications, was prompt and communicative. We’ve now decided she needs to be our forever pet sitter😊 We are super happy with the care our cats received!

They where amazing, if your an anxious pet parent like me it can be hard to travel and to find the right sitter. They are really responsive and communicative with everything. I always got pictures and videos, and it made the trip way more relaxing. They followed the directions every-time and asked the best questions. As well as always being on time. Overall I felt good knowing they were taking care of my cat. This sitter is 100% anxiety/OCD approved🫡 I will be using them again in the future for sure.

This was our second time booking Sibel, and also the longest we'd ever been away from our two kitties, so we were definitely a little nervous. But once again, she was exceptional. You can tell Sibel really loves what she does, and it shows in the way she cares for the pets she's looking after. We felt completely at ease knowing our cats were with her. She kept us updated, sent lots of pictures and videos, and made sure they had everything they needed. She always goes above and beyond and is so attentive to their needs. She followed all of our care instructions carefully and even noticed things that came up while we were away, which gave us so much peace of mind. We're so glad we found Sibel and can't recommend her enough. We'll definitely keep booking her whenever we need someone to take care of our cats!

About: I’ve always grown up around dogs and getting to spend time with them has been one of my favorite pastimes! I’ve had the pleasure of meeting many new furry friends throughout the years and getting to know their own unique personalities! I always treat every new pup I see as if they’re my own. I hope I get the chance to meet your pups soon and give them a little extra company! Currently, my schedule is full open availability. I have no problem commuting for that reason:). I plan on focusing my attention on pet-sitting, as I’ve always had a love for animals! At my home, I have two super good boys! One is a Golden Retriever (11) and the other is a Shih-Tzu (15). They are fed every morning and taken out at least 3 times a day. Toys are never-ending and they are spoiled rotten (they get to sleep in the bed😉). Both of these pups are constantly getting attention…I mean come on, how can I not?!

About: I have a lot of experience caring for pups of all personalities. I’ve hosted friends’ and family members’ dogs for years, and I treat every dog like my own. What really sets me apart is the fun, kid-friendly environment I provide—my children absolutely adore dogs, and visiting pups usually enjoy all the extra love, playtime, and attention they get here. I work best with dogs who are potty trained and comfortable around kids, since my home is full of laughter, activity, and gentle little helpers. Whether your dog loves snuggles on the couch, playtime in the yard, or just having company throughout the day, I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work, but I’m usually home most of the day on Mondays, which provides plenty of time for extra attention, play, and walks. Tuesday through Friday, I’m out from about 9–3:30, but I’m home before and after that window for morning cuddles, potty breaks, and lots of evening family time with your pup. My schedule allows for a good balance of companionship, consistency, and a predictable routine—perfect for dogs who do well with a cozy home environment and plenty of love before and after the workday. In my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every dog I care for. I don’t currently have any pets in the home—my sweet dog passed away a few months ago—so your pup gets all the attention, love, and space to themselves. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play, potty breaks, and plenty of fresh air. Inside, dogs are welcome to relax with me, hang out with the kids, and be part of our daily routine. I keep a close eye on them, follow any schedule or rules you prefer, and make sure they feel right at home. I tailor their care to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is keeping your dog’s routine as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely—feeding times, walks, crate routines, medications, and any house rules you have in place. I know how important consistency is, so I make sure your pup gets the same structure and comfort they’re used to. I spend plenty of time giving your dog attention, play, and companionship so they never feel lonely while you’re away. I also keep your home tidy, bring in packages or mail if needed, and send regular updates and photos so you feel completely at ease. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, loved, and relaxed in their own environment, and for you to return home to a happy pup and a home just the way you left it.

She quickly responded to our pet sit request. She asked great questions about the care of our puppy. We are definitely booking Amanda again!

About: I know how to take care of animals that are highly reactive due to my sweet rescue. I was raised around lots of different animals since I was a toddler and often watched on them even as a small child. As I got older and my mother started leaving for weeks for work so I’d watch my dog, cat, and two tree frogs on my own for years. I currently have two dogs and cat I care for that are happy and healthy. I’ve also always participated in neighbor dog walking and frequently volunteer at shelters. I am in school Monday through Thursday but am available early morning and late night those days and can be flexible. Weekend are completely open. I always remain courteous and respectful in other peoples private spaces. A persons home is incredibly private and I would make sure that trust is kept. I will follow your instructions exactly and make sure your pet and you are happy!

About: I have been taking care of pets since before I could remember. I believe that pets are what make the world go round, and always strive to make them as happy as can be! I have a small, calm dog and cat here in Arizona, and two large, crazy dogs back in Maine. I definitely understand how both ends of the spectrum can be! All my pets have made it from early puppy, to late senior so I understand the vital importance and factors of taking care of a youthful/elderly pet. I am only working part-time at the moment so taking care of your pets on the weekend is not a problem for me! I also work early mornings so I am free in the afternoons/evenings during the week for all services except overnight stay! MY HOUSE: I have a small, calm/friendly dog that would love to keep your furry friend company. He can be locked away in a separate area of the house if needed! I also have a small, calm/friendly cat but she will be locked away for all visitations/overnights because she gets scared easily. I have a beautiful fenced in backyard with a pool and fake grass. All pet waste gets cleaned up so it’s always hygienic. I will take your dog for a long walk 2 times per day. I will follow your desired feeding/play schedule and administer any medicine if needed. YOUR HOUSE: I will do all the same as listed above! If you have no fenced backyard, I will take your dog on multiple walks a day to get their energy out. I will also follow any crate training instructions if desired.

Morgan did an amazing job with my dog Ria. I felt so reassured having Morgan there to watch her and give meds after her surgery while I had to work. She was very easy to communicate with, and she gave photos updates throughout the day. Thanks again Morgan!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Rio Verde

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Rio Verde on Rover is $29.97 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 6,198 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Rio Verde. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Rio Verde stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rio Verde. On Rover:

  • 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.

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.
