About: I have grown up with dogs for my whole life. We have had three dogs over the years and they have all had different personalities. It has been fun to adapt based on the dogs personalities and provide them with the care they need. When I was 11 I started a pet sitting business in my town. I would care for and walk a variety of dogs in my town and really enjoyed it. I am a big walker/ runner myself so I love being able to take dogs out on my walks and play with them in whatever way they need. I am currently an occupational therapist working in a preschool. I typically work from 7-3. I would be available for evening walks and open to over night stays on the weekends or during the week if your animals are able to be left alone during the work day. I have many days off working in a school so will have more availability during those times as well. I am very respectable to other peoples homes. I will follow all directions given to me and ensure to provide quality care for your animal!
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!
About: I’ve had a dog most of the first 17 years of my life. My friends ask me to care for their dogs while they’re on vacation or traveling. I bathe dogs as needed, and take them for walks twice a day. I give them lots of love. Dogs really like me. I work from home, but occasionally step away for appointments. I prefer crate trained dogs for while I’m away but always reward them with treats when I get home! I have a comfy place. I take the dogs out for walks at least twice a day, often 3 or more times. And I make sure they have great care, anffection and attention! I have a comfortable home, yet do most of the dog walking in the grass near my condo, or with the permission of the owner, a dog park nearby.
About: I started dogsitting after my Australian Shephard, Kahlua, passed in April 2016 after 14 years. I have been enjoying watching all your pets. I have a 2 year old, 9lb micro goldendoodle but happy to watch dogs that are friendly. Let me love and care for your special baby as I do mine. I work away from home 3x a week for 7 hours. My dog is crate trained. Your pup should be house trained or crate trained so I know they will be ok when unsupervised. In your home, I am willing to take care of as many pets as you have as long as my pup is able to stay too. I am also available to do drop in visits for dogs and cats... feed, walk, water and play as needed. I will come and go as I would with my dog, social events never keep me away for more than 4 hours at a time. I will abide by all dog rules you have for your pet and be happy to have company on the couch or bed at night time.
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.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Scottsdale
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.

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 , 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.
