“Amanda was a great sitter for my 4 cats. Lots of pictures helped me especially when i was missing them while away. Will definitely be asking for her help again in the future”

About: I’ve worked with pets my whole life! I worked at a pet resort all of highschool! I did flee and tick Medicine, dog walks, cat playtime. Baths. Speciality home owner meals, you name it! I will always make time for furry friends, I want all animals to always feel loved and taken care of, I’m here to help with any needs! I have a big backyard and home. I live right next to dog parks and thoroughly enjoy exercise and walking so let me take your pet for a good walk!
“Frydha did an outstanding job taking care of my dogs, Max and Bo, while I was out of town. One of my dogs knocked over a large picture frame that shattered, and without me even asking, she cleaned up the glass, vacuumed the area, and stayed longer to make sure neither dog had any injuries. She also noticed my trash bin by the curb and brought it back to the side of the house- not because she had to, but because she’s thoughtful and attentive. Her communication was great throughout, and she handled everything with professionalism and care. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and proactive sitter.”

About: I am very experienced with taking care of pets. I have been sitting for people since the age of 13-14. I absolutely love and adore animals and will make sure to do my absolute best to take care of them! Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I’m used to making sure pets are fed, have water, get plenty of exercise and attention, and that their space is kept clean. I also make time for play, walks, and making sure they’re comfortable and happy. I understand that caring for a pet is a consistent responsibility, and I’m comfortable building their needs into my schedule. I have a dog of my own that I love and adore very much. She is my best friend! I will make sure your pets feel loved and taken care of by taking them for walks, playing with them, and just hanging out.
“Courtney was wonderful with my kittens while I was away. She looked after them well and sent me updates and pictures daily. They were very happy as was I. I would definitely recommend Courtney to look after your pets and myself will be using her again if needed! 😊”


About: I have grown up with pets my entire life and have experience caring for dogs through every stage of their lives, from puppies to seniors. Over the years, I've learned how to provide attentive, loving care while understanding that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have also dog sat for other families. I like to ensure that each pet felt safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Whether it's playtime, walks, maintaining routines, or giving extra patience and attention to senior dogs, I always strive to treat every pet like they are part of my own family. I have a flexible schedule/work from home, which allows me to give pets frequent attention, potty breaks, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I am available 7 days a week and I make my own schedule so I am pretty flexible with the hours as well. Pet care fits comfortably into my routine, and I enjoy creating a calm, consistent environment for every pet I watch. I live in a house with a gated backyard where dogs can safely play and get exercise under supervision. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and pay close attention to each pet’s routine, comfort level, and needs. I like to focus on creating a safe, loving, and low-stress experience with plenty of attention, playtime, and updates for owners.
About: Hi! I’m Sig, current cat mom and animal lover. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s personality and quirks. I currently have two cats of my own, so I know how much peace of mind comes from having someone trustworthy and attentive care for your pets while you’re away. I’ve grown up with dogs and currently care for a friends dogs both big and small while they are away. So I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats and understand that every pet has their own routine, energy level, and needs. Whether your pup needs a good walk and some playtime, or your cat would rather have a quiet visit, some attention, and a clean litter box, I’m happy to give them the care they’re used to. I’m responsible, communicative, and will treat your pets and your home with the same care I’d want for my own. I currently work full-time with a flexible work-from-home schedule, which allows me to provide walks, potty breaks, and check-ins during the week. I’m also available for more extended visits and dedicated pet care on weekends, so I can give your pets plenty of attention and companionship while you’re away. I provide care in my client’s home, where I can keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. Depending on the pet and service, visits can include walks, potty breaks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, cuddles, litter box care, and general companionship. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and accommodate each pet’s individual needs and personality. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away, while keeping you updated so you have peace of mind
About: I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, and with cats of all attitude levels. I’ve been working with my own pets and others for about 6 years. I will spend quality time with your pets while using the instructed care you have provided me with! I would love to watch your pets! I am currently not on a specific work schedule and can accommodate to your pet’s needs and schedules- will accept offers on a case by case basis due to scheduling. I will come up with a routine for each pet I sit or take care of due to their needs and your instructions. Each pet is different and they all have and will need different care and I will accommodate as needed to take care of your pet in the best manner!
About: What sets me apart is the depth of experience I bring, even though I’m new to Rover and don’t have reviews here yet. Before joining Rover, I spent three summers in Arizona sitting for families who left town during the heat. Many of those stays were several weeks or several months, and the trust built there kept me booked through word-of-mouth alone. After that, I began traveling between Arizona and San Francisco for work and started using TrustedHousesitters. For the past 4 years, I’ve been sitting consecutively in San Francisco/Bay Area, San Diego, Los Angeles/Orange County and Arizona with no breaks. I currently have over 40 five-star reviews on TrustedHousesitters from families who relied on me to care for their dogs and homes. I work from home, so dogs get nearly constant companionship throughout the day. With 25 years of experience working in healthcare, I bring a naturally calm, observant, and empathetic approach to caring for pets, which helps dogs feel secure when they’re missing their owners. I’ve cared for puppies who need structure and patience and senior dogs who benefit from slower walks, medication routines, and extra gentleness. I now only sit for dogs and especially enjoy breeds like Bernadoodles, Goldendoodles, Labs, Golden Retrievers, Pitbulls, and Boxers. One thing that truly sets my care apart is enrichment. I love taking dogs to explore different parks, beaches, and neighborhoods so they get variety and stimulation. If you’re comfortable with it, I can safely transport your dog in my car for these outings. I send daily photos and updates, follow your routines closely, and treat your dog with the same care and affection I’d give my own. I am a spirited 45 year-old who now leads the life of a digital healthcare startup CEO, allowing me the flexibility to work from anywhere. Currently based in Silicon Valley but travel to Arizona/Los Angeles/Orange County monthly... I do prefer beachfront locations during the summer. A world traveler, I have lived in six different countries, most of them beachfront, and spent most of my adult life in the Marina district of San Francisco. I believe in embracing adventures and spending my free time with animals who offer unconditional love. Trust me with your pets, and they'll not just be taken care of, they'll experience love, joy, and a home away from home. I care for pets in a way that prioritizes safety, trust, and a calm environment, especially since I stay in the owner’s home for all sits and visits. In your home, I follow your routines closely so your dog feels secure and grounded. I take time to understand feeding schedules, walking preferences, health needs, and any house rules you want maintained. Because I work remotely and spend most of the day at home, your dog is rarely alone, which helps reduce anxiety and keeps their environment peaceful and consistent. I transport dogs safely in my car if you’re comfortable with that. I build trust through a calm presence, gentle communication, and daily updates. Dogs pick up on energy, so I make sure their environment stays relaxed, predictable, and loving. I treat your home with the same respect I give your pet, keeping it tidy and following all instructions so you return to everything just as you left it. My goal is always the same: a safe space where your dog feels cared for, understood, and comfortable until you’re home again.
About: I have always loved being around dogs and have plenty of hands on experience caring for them. I regularly pet sit for dogs in my building and take them on walks, making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and love. I also have a golden retriever puppy of my own, so I’m very comfortable with the energy, patience, and responsibility that comes with taking care of a dog. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. Im currently an online student and so im usually pretty free which provides me with a lot of time to hang out with the dogs! I live in a nice apartment and my building has a pet play area that’s always empty and a place for them to run around as well as a lot of trails for long walks!

“Sierra was very detailed, professional, attentive, and punctual. I have a chronically ill kitty that needs daily meds and I was really worried about leaving him while on my trip, but Sierra made me feel at ease and I could tell my babies were in good hands. I highly recommend her services!”

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I can remember. Even various other animals such as chinchillas, bunnies, and guinea pigs! I have potty trained, crate trained, house trained, and taught tricks. While I am dedicating my time to taking care of, walking, and spending time with your animal, I would gladly take them to the dog park or picking up some sweet treats! I also have a Siberian Husky, she’s about 8 months old and loves everyone. I would gladly bring her if it is comfortable with you to be able to play with your animal. I currently volunteer at the Arizona Humane Society from 7am-10am Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays and in September I will be a full time college student but I would be glad to dedicate some of my free time to hangout or walk some cuties! I am currently volunteering at the Arizona Humane Society from 7-10 am Mondays, Wednesdays and Friday’s. I also work a part time Job which is usually at night and on the weekends from 4pm -12:30am. As of September 8th, I will be a full time college student. The same days will still be available just different hours! I do live inside of an apartment, though we do have a dog park! I also have 2 dogs that LOVE to play at the park and meet everyone!
About: Retired teacher and lifelong dog lover. I regularly care for dogs of all sizes including an 80lb Golden! Experience with a range of breeds and temperaments. Comfortable and experienced with medication and senior dog care. I am retired so I am available all the time to give some love to your beautiful babies! I am an early rise and very prompt, so comfortable with morning walks. I am very detail oriented and will ensure your loved animals will feel like they are being taken care of by their own parent. If your dog stays with me they will get miles of beautiful walks along the lake and lots of dog park time!

“Julia went beyond the call of duty and stepped in for us in an emergency. We felt completely confident that our furry girly was getting all the loves while we were gone. Thank you, Julia!”

About: I genuinely care about every pet I look after, treating them like family. I specialize in offering personalized care, whether it’s helping puppies set boundaries, supporting senior pets with their specific needs and medications, or just providing plenty of love and attention. I work well with high needs pets, especially those on detailed medication schedules or those from trauma backgrounds. I focus on building trust, ensuring your pet feels comfortable and safe in my care. Your pet will always receive the best attention, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re in reliable, loving hands with many photo updates. I’m a graduate student with a flexible schedule allowing me to ensure your pets receive daily care and enough activity to keep them healthy and happy joining me on my daily walks. I provide in house visits and house sitting as well! I provide regular walks, playtime, and cuddle sessions. I make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent with feeding and any other specific needs they may have. If I’m caring for your pet in their own home, I maintain their regular routine, offering the same love, attention, and care while ensuring they feel comfortable and secure in their familiar surroundings.
“Tayler is the best! I'm always at ease when I know she is taking care of my dog when I'm away. She's so great with him and very communicative with me. Highly recommend letting her care for your pet!”

About: I know how stressful it is to leave your dog with someone you don’t know yet. That’s exactly why I always want to start with a meet and greet, get to know your dog, get to know you, and actually understand what they need instead of guessing. I’ve spent years around dogs of every kind. Different energy levels, puppies, seniors, different personalities, multiple pets in one house. At the meet and greet, I’ll ask real questions. What you need from me. What your dog needs from me. So there’s no guesswork once the booking starts. Your dog’s routine, your instructions, their comfort, that’s what guides everything I do. Safety and their wellbeing come first, always. Honestly? Petcare is my top priority. I love spending time with dogs enough that if I could just hang out with one all day, every day, I'd take that over almost anything else :) Here's what safety and consistency actually look like, service by service. HOUSE SITTING: I stay in your home for the full length of the booking. My default is to be there, fully present, one on one, the whole time. What that looks like in practice depends on your dog. Some pets do fine with a short window alone, others don't, and that's not something I guess at. We'll talk through it before booking so I know exactly what your dog can handle, and I'll always make the call that's right for them, not what's easiest for me. For example, I go to church on Sundays, normally about 2-3hours. If a dog is comfortable with that, I'll go. If I'm not confident they are, I stay, even if I've already been told it's fine. Meals, walks, medication, and playtime happen on the schedule you set. If you're not a schedule type of person, then just let me know what you would require in terms of responsibility on my end. Overnight, your dog stays wherever they normally would. If that's the bed, it's the bed. If that's their own spot, it's their own spot. I follow your house, not the other way around. If you have any plants that need watering, or mail and packages that need to come in, I'm happy to include that in my service. Pictures: I love taking them. I have an eye for capturing great moments, so unless you tell me otherwise, I'll be sending them your way. Communication: This is based on your comfort level. I typically send one update in the morning and one in the evening, but if you'd like more or less, just tell me. DROP-INS: Visits run 30 minutes, with longer time available. Potty break, feeding, fresh water, enrichment/play time would be my suggestion. But if you have a different routine you’d like me follow please let me know. Quick doesn't mean rushed. Calm, efficient, connected is the goal. WALKS: 30 minutes is standard, with longer walks available on request. The pace is set by your dog. Some days it's a slow "Snifari" kind of walk, where the neighborhood message board is filled with interesting updates. 🐶: "Wow, Winston got two pup cups in one day… hmm, how do I get the algorithm to put that on my pet parent's FYP page?" Other days it's a high-energy, work off those extra treats kind of day. I follow their lead and read what they need. Hopefully I've covered everything. If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out :)
“Kaylie did an exceptional job caring for our three [3] cats while we were on vacation. Kaylie was prompt in her drop-in visits, provided great updates / photos, and overall made us feel comfortable knowing our cats were being well-cared for in our absence. I would recommend Kaylie to anyone looking for a true professional and someone who will provide great care to your fur babies!”

John did a wonderful job taking care of Rocco. He was always on time according to our agreed schedule and kept me updated regularly, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while we were away. This trip was especially difficult because we had two Frenchies and had to say goodbye to our 10-year-old just two weeks before leaving. Rocco is 7 and had never really been alone, so I was understandably concerned about how he would adjust. John was very good with him, and Rocco seemed to really like and feel comfortable with John. I truly appreciated the extra reassurance John provided during a difficult time for Rocco and for us. I would definitely recommend him and would be happy to have him watch Rocco again.

Silvana was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly professional, reliable, and personable from start to finish. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my dog and treated him with so much love and attention. Communication was excellent, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in such great hands. I would highly recommend Silvana to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and fantastic dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Anna was absolutely amazing checking in on Sully while I was away! 🥹🤍 She kept me updated, made sure he was happy and comfortable, and gave him lots of love and attention. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was being taken care of by someone I trust. Sully loved her, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their fur baby! 🐾💕

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Scottsdale is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 7,239 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Scottsdale. 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.
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 Scottsdale 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!
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
