About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. Now, as a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pup when you can’t be there. I work in the medical field, so I’m very attentive, dependable, and comfortable following specific instructions and routines. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I also understand that every dog has their own personality, and I’m comfortable giving shy or more cautious dogs the time and patience they need to warm up. I’ll care for your pup the same way I’d want someone to care for mine and will always send pictures and updates so you know how they’re doing. I typically work about three days a week, which gives me flexibility on my days off for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I’ll also have much more open availability from late November through mid-January. I’ll care for your pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable and stick closely to their normal routine. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care needs. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.
“Ben was fantastic! Starting with our meet & greet, he went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and more importantly that he was prepared to give the best possible care to my pet which he absolutely did. I so appreciated his daily notes and photos and could tell how comfortable and safe my cat felt with him. I would absolutely rebook!”

“Carla is a dream come true!! She is always coming through for our cat Simon and giving us the sweetest updates and pictures. Thank you so much for putting our minds at ease while we are away ❤️”


About: I have had both cats and dogs in my care since i was 10 years old, my ex husband’s cockatiel, and a brief stint with a snake in my adult life, too. I also have 2+ years in pet sitting and dog walking experience. I treat every pet in my care with the same patience and attention I’d want for my own. I offer drop-in visits and walks, sticking to your preferred schedules and habits so your pet feels secure. You’ll get honest, regular updates with photos every time I visit. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My flexible availability allows me to spend quality, unhurried time during drop-ins or walks. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in or a longer midday visit, I’m able to stick closely to the timing they're used to. When caring for pets in your home, safety and security are my main priorities. I make sure double gates and doors are secure, stay observant during walks, and follow your exact house rules. I take care to leave your space just as I found it and keep you updated after every visit so you know everything went smoothly.
“Elena was awesome for drop-ins for my kitty! I really looked forward to her detailed drop-in updates. She was very courteous and was able to to work with my schedule. My kitty seemed to really like her! I will definitely be booking Elena next time I go out of town ?”

About: I have been taking care of my neighbors’ pets and volunteered at a local animal shelter since I was in middle school, but have since moved to GA. I have had my border collie, Cashew, since he was only a puppy and my cat, Hazel, since she was 4 months old. I would love to help others care for their furry friends as well! I am VERY much used to longer walks or physical activity to play with high energy dogs, but I’m also happy to swing by for just a short walk and a potty break if that’s all they need. I hope to just be an extension of the love and care you give to your fur babies! I will always try my best to give you same day availability if it’s needed. I am currently working per diem, which allows me to have a good deal of flexibility. I will do my best to stay consistent with your regular daily routine for your pets to avoid any major stress for you or them. I am more than comfortable crate training if that’s something you are working on. I’ve also put on more harnesses and different collars than I can count. My partner and I have trained our dog on our own and raised our cat from when she was a kitten, so we’ve seen all the stages!

About: I have been a frequent dog-sitter for about two years now but I have had dogs all my life, making me the perfect candidate to take care of your four-legged friends. I’m happy to take care of your pets because I enjoy being around animals! Most people would describe me as gentle and caring. I have worked with anxious dogs in the past and I believe I am able to make them feel comfortable and safe to alleviate any anxiety they face. I am a full-time student with classes on Monday, Wednesday, & Thursday so I am looking to watch your pets on the weekends preferably! But if you would need me for longer I will more than likely be open to accommodating :) I will follow any and all rules given to care for the pet. I love going on walks so if the weather allows it, I would love to take your pup on a walk! I am also a loving person who will be very affectionate towards the pet to affirm their safety. I have worked with both anxious dogs and cats in the past, and I believe I am good at soothing their anxiety.
“Cameron was wonderfull. She was very professional and I could tell she loves animals. I didn't have to worry, she sent updates and photos every day. I would love to use her again ! Thank you 😊”
“Grace was wonderful and attentive. I felt I could really relax on vacation knowing my cat was in good hands. Will most definitely use her again in the future for all of our pet sitting needs!”

“I am so appreciative of Morgan’s services. She’s tentative, caring and loving. I enjoyed the picture and report cards on juicy daily. I will definitely recommend and use Morgan again. Thank you!”


“Ryan is great with our dog Wylder. He drops in over the weekend and takes him for walks/potty breaks. He sends photos of him playing and info on what they did. Wylder definitely seems happier and calmer since Ryan has been dropping in.”


About: I’ve always had a natural connection with dogs. They seem to know that I genuinely love being around them, and I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, routines, and individual needs. My goal is for your pup to feel safe, happy, loved, and completely at home while you’re away. 🐾 I’m experienced with feeding, exercise, medications, playtime, and keeping dogs on their normal routines. I’m attentive to the little things that help them feel secure and cared for. I also take pride in caring for your home. I’m responsible, respectful, tidy, and detail-oriented, and I’ll make sure things are well cared for while you’re gone. You’ll come home to a happy, well-loved dog and a clean, cared-for home. I don’t just watch dogs—I get to know them. ❤️ Dogsitting is my full-time gig so if I’ve taken you on as a client, your dog will receive the absolute best care, with attention given to their routine, including walks, playtime, feeding and cuddles. In my home, your dog will receive the pet-centered care they deserve per your directions (feeding, walks, etc) They will have a room to feel safe, inside or outside a crate. They will be encouraged to sit on the couch or in a dog bed for chill time, receive frequent walks (I do not currently have a fenced yard) and will be left alone for 2-3 hours max.
“When my husband and I went on a 10-day trip, Jenn was wonderful with our two cats and gave me great peace of mind during such a long time away. Her reassuring messages and sweet photos were exactly what I needed to be able to fully enjoy our vacation! She's exceptionally responsive, very careful with details, and lovely to work with. I can't recommend her highly enough!”

About: I was originally pre-vet and also worked kennel technician jobs, so I have years of experience with dog/cat pet care and medicine administration. I am comfortable caring for any age of pets. I am currently working full time Monday-Friday from 7:30-4. I work from home Monday and Friday, so I have more flexibility those days. I am free every Saturday and Sunday. I also get all holidays off, and am usually available those days/holiday weekends. My apartment complex has a dog park area and I have a personal fenced back area. It is mostly concrete but has some flower beds. I have a cat in my home, and he has been tested with other dogs/cats and keeps to himself. He can be closed off in my room if needed. There is also a guest bedroom that has nothing of importance in there, so if there’s a situation where you’d prefer a safe quiet space for a potentially anxious pet, that should be perfect. I can cater my space to your pet and will give them all the love they want.

I had a great experience with Ella! I was away for an extended period and she was attentive, reliable, and took wonderful care of my cats. It was reassuring to know they were in such good hands while I was gone. I really appreciated her thoughtfulness and care and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy cat sitter!

Jessica did an awesome job looking after our cat. She was communicative throughout the whole process and sent pictures during the drop in. We could rest easy knowing our furball was in good hands. We will definitely look to use Jessica's services again next time!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Scottdale is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $29 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 7,486 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Scottdale. 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.

- 95% can help with daily exercise

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.
