About: I spent pretty much my whole life with pets. My family got 2 cats when I was 2 and our first dog when I was 8. I started helping my mom take care of them around age 12 and took over primary care for the cats at 14. I have since dog and cat sat for numerous friends, family and coworkers and just love getting to spend time with pets. I am in school and work part time but am fully available on weekends and holidays for any pet sitting needs. I love both cats and dogs and really enjoy getting to play and hang out with them. I am used to being around all sizes of dogs and cats. I would love to set up a meeting prior to get to know the pets and you can show me what you like to do to keep them safe and comfortable.
“Kim was fantastic to communicate with. It gave us a peace of mind knowing she has experience with energetic young dogs. Our pup had a great time with her and she gave us consistent check ins and photos. She was flexible, prompt, kind and warm. We highly recommend working with Kim.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have taken care of dogs of family members and friends since my late teens. From August 2024 to February 2025, I supervised a friend's senior dog alone after years of drop-in visits and ensured adequate food and water availability, as well as adherence to feeding schedules. I am currently an online student with a flexible schedule. Preferred availability is evenings and weekends, but I can adapt during the day as well. I can watch pets while completing schoolwork. I adhere to instructions and routines, including ensuring the safety of the environment and pets. I also maintain cleanliness, punctuality, and consistent communication with owners.
“My cats are super anti-social but one of our kitties came up to Sophia for pets almost every day she came by. The first person she’s ever done that for! Sophia was great and I’d definitely recommend her services.”
“Trisha took great care of my cat, Mars. She was flexible when I asked her to make extra visits and skip others. She kept her appointments, sometimes stayed overtime, and made sure he was fed and cared for. I can highly recommend her.”
“Devinnie was such a great friend to Theo while I was away. She sent lots of photos, spent plenty of time with him and overall did a fantastic job. Devinnie was also very respectful of my home and I felt completely at ease having her there. I would recommend Devinnie to any pet parent!”
“Heather is awesome! She’s been helping watch my 12 week old puppy and has helped with my cat. She’s reliable, trustworthy and great with animals. ❤️”
“Bridget was amazing! We have a diabetic cat that needed shots twice a day and two others. Bridget was super communicative, had great summaries and took lots of pictures to help us feel better about being away for so long. All of our instructions were followed and the cats were well taken care of. We will definitely be using Bridget's services in the future.”
About: I've owned my dog, Sparrow, for just over 2 years now. Additionally, I spent most of college watching my friends' pets, taking them out on walks/hikes and providing extended care when they were out of town. I work most days from home allowing me to provide constant care and attention. When your pet is with me they will be constantly cared for and attended to. I have a large fenced backyard giving your pet space to roam and explore safely. My dog Sparrow is very friendly and will love to have a friend to spend time with.
“Lauren was fantastic with all of my pups!! Paid great attention to detail and all my pups were so happy to see her. Would highly recommend her to anyone!! thank you so much!!”
“Michelle was amazing and took great care of Zen and Leo while I was away on my business trip. She was very friendly and flexible about times and instructions and was very communicative throughout the whole process. Will definitely be using her again the next time I need to go out of town! 😁”
“John is amazing! He is very communicative and takes great care of my cat Oliver. He sends lots of pictures and updates. Will definitely be using him again!”
About: I started dog walking and petsitting in 2022. I'm great at reinforcing recall and working with all kinds of dogs, from independent off-leash to dogs that are prone to separation anxiety. I’m the perfect person to hang out with and cuddle your furry friend while you’re away. I am currently working from home and part time at that so I have plenty of energy to devote to making sure your furry friend is well taken care of. I'm fairly active and get at least 2 walks in a day and enjoy hiking as well. I usually take dogs on walks 2x daily unless otherwise instructed. I am home for most of the day and am typically not gone from the home for more than a couple hours at a time. Love having the pets sleep with me and venture out to hiking spots or day trips if that is something that suits them.
“Heather was so great with our lab Cali. Cali is shy with new people and she was very patient with that and very attentive to Cali. She brought us much peace of mind with having her come check on Cali during the day. Definitely would use her again!”
About: I have 12 years experience pet sitting & dog walking, both professionally and for friends and family and am also a former dog owner. I love getting to know dogs of every age, size and personality! I am able to provide ample time and love for your pets as I have a very flexible schedule! I am very reliable and provide a loving and calm atmosphere for your pets! Available both weekdays and weekends. I have a flexible schedule and I have plenty of time to play and spend time with your fur babies. I am able to visit your pets at your home for lunchtime or dinner time breaks and dog walking, as well as stay overnight at your home.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Scottsdale
Trisha was beyond awesome!! She is so sweet and caring and seems to truly care about animals. We needed some help and Trisha completely delivered and went above and beyond. She was dedicated to ensuring the kitties were safe and followed all directions to a tee. We could not have been more thankful to find Trisha and were so appreciative of all her help, kindness, and dedication. Thanks so much Trisha again and again!!!
Matthew was an amazing cat sitter! Our cats seemed comfortable with him right from the start, which is rare! He asked a lot of great questions during the meet and greet to make sure all of the cats needs would be met while we were gone. We got a lot of great pictures too! I highly recommend Matthew for any cat sitting needs!
John was flexible about when we started and ended, since our travel departure and arrival home was dependant on airline seat availability. He seemed to establish a rapport with our cat. She is a long hair, and needs to be brushed daily, and was well groomed when we arrived home. John also sent multiple photos of our kitty daily, never less than three. I would highly recommend John for your pet!
Nancy always does a spectacular job communicating with me and sending me updates, pictures, and videos of my kitties while I’m away. She’s helped out when I’ve unexpectedly extended my trips and has given me so much peace of mind while I’m away, I couldn’t recommend her more!!
Michelle was amazing and took great care of Zen and Leo while I was away on my business trip. She was very friendly and flexible about times and instructions and was very communicative throughout the whole process. Will definitely be using her again the next time I need to go out of town! 😁
Elisa is my cat’s primary sitter and is the absolute best. The care, concern, and time she shows my baby girl is incredible and very much appreciated. Elisa is also very detail oriented and responsive, which gives me peace of mind. If you’re looking for a sitter, I highly recommend Elisa. She loves animals and makes caring for them a priority. When Elisa watches my cat, I know she is in good hands.
Cody was great with Jake! Jake was excited to see me when I got home, but then immediately laid down and relaxed, which tells me Cody did a great job exercising his mind and body. Cody was patient, communicative, and clearly made Jake feel comfortable. Jake loved him, and I’ll definitely be booking Cody for drop-ins again. Thank you, Cody! 😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Scottsdale on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 3,432 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Scottsdale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Scottsdale. On Rover:
- 93% 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.
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.
