“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! 😁”
“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.”
“Heather was fantastic with our finicky cat! He often doesn’t come out for new people but came out and ate for her everyday. We were thrilled with how everything went with Heather”
About: Hi! I’m Maddy, and I’m excited to finally join Rover after years of being the gal who’s friends, neighbors, and people in my community have trusted to take care of their dogs. I’ve cared for dogs of all different sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s individual routine and quirks. Whether your dog needs a good walk, a midday check-in, some company while you’re away, or just a little extra attention, I’m happy to help. I recently moved from California to the Scottsdale area and decided that this was the perfect time to officially join Rover. I have some extra flexibility during the week and would love to spend that time getting outside, meeting some new dogs, and helping local pet parents. I’m dependable, communicative, and very attentive to the little details that make your dog comfortable. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you don’t have to wonder how your pup is doing while you’re away. I’m new to Rover, but definitely not new to dogs! I’m looking forward to building some new relationships with Scottsdale’s dogs and their humans. 🐾 I recently moved to the Scottsdale area and have a flexible schedule during the week, which gives me plenty of time for dog walks and drop-in visits. I’m available throughout the day and can work with different routines and schedules. I treat every pet as an individual and take time to learn their routine, personality, and needs. I’m attentive to safety, keep owners updated, and always make sure pets are comfortable and cared for.
“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!”
“Elisa is amazing. One of our cats managed to get locked in a closet and Elisa found her on day 1 of a 4 day trip. Our cats usually hide with new visitors and if it wasn’t for Elisa’s attention to detail I don’t know what would have happened to our cat. I highly recommend Elisa to anyone looking for a fantastic pet sitter.”
“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!”
“I came back home to a very happy kitty!! I was so nervous to leave Loki for the first time, but Bridget sent me a ton of photos and made me feel at ease throughout my trip. She spent a lot of time playing with him, brushing him, and chilling at his favorite spot on the balcony. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!💗”
About: I have years of hands-on experience with dogs of different sizes and temperaments. I've had 2 dogs of my own, a terrier and a Yorkie, and as a teenager, I regularly looked after pets in my neighborhood. I currently help care for my roommate's dog, but have no pets of my own. I offer dog walking, drop in visits, and pet sitting, including walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and cuddles. I will follow your routine as closely as possible and take time to learn what makes your dog comfortable. I work part-time Monday through Thursday with short days, so I am flexible on weekday afternoons and fully available Fridays and weekends. I'm happy to send photo and video updates so you can see how your dog is doing while you're away. I would love to schedule a meet and greet so your dog and I can get to know each other first! I am currently working part time (Monday - Thursday) with short days. I would love to help out with pet care on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and the weekend. I am good at following directions, and I will care for your pet however you would like. I keep pets leashed at all times, and I will be paying attention to their behavior. I will give you updates on pace and energy.
“Nancy was such a great help with our cat, Hugh. She asked lots of great questions and was very attentive to the details for Hugh’s check-ins. I recommend Nancy to others on Rover!”
About: I’ve always had a genuine love and appreciation for dogs and have about 10 years of experience caring for them. Throughout college, I volunteered at local animal shelters, where I spent time caring for dogs, taking them on walks, and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I also fostered dogs and participated in programs that allowed me to take shelter dogs out for the day, giving them a fun and relaxing break from the shelter environment. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, breeds, and personalities, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. Most importantly, I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and truly enjoy making sure dogs feel safe, loved, and cared for. I work during the week, but my schedule is flexible and I’m able to make plenty of time for pet care. I’m available for morning and evening visits, walks, and check-ins, with more availability throughout the day when I’m working from home. I’m also open to house sitting and overnight stays, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable with me. I’m happy to stick to their normal routine, whether that’s walks, feeding, medication, playtime, or just hanging out and giving them some extra love. I’m also respectful of your home and will treat it like I would my own.
“Veronika is the best! Very responsive, & always sends me Rover cards, photos & updates while I'm away! I know my Stache is in good hands with Veronika, & can highly recommend! ☺️”
About: I’m a reliable, active, and loving dog caregiver. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I also walk about 7 miles a day, so I’m very comfortable keeping up with active dogs and making sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. Most importantly, I treat every dog like they’re my own! 🐾❤️ I currently work 9-5pm with 3 days in office and Tuesday and Thursday from home. I can do overnights, dog walking/feeding in the morning and evenings! I’m also open to boarding small dogs at my apartment. I have an apartment in a safe, dog-friendly community with a nice neighborhood nearby for walks, and my complex also has a dedicated dog park for exercise and play. If caring for a pet in my home, I would provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, fresh water, and a safe, comfortable environment while following their normal routine. If caring for a pet in the client’s home, I would make sure they feel comfortable and cared for in their own space, follow their feeding, walking, medication, and potty routines, and give them lots of attention and companionship while respecting their home.
About: Hi, we’re Zach and Maddie! We are true dog lovers! We both grew up with dogs our whole lives and have cared for many others through friends, family, and other clients. That means we’re comfortable with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, ages, personalities, and of course, their favorite scratch spots. We genuinely love being around dogs and miss having them in our daily lives—which is the reason we started Rover! Since we both live together and work from home, your dog gets double the care, attention, and supervision throughout the day—basically 2-for-1 pet care! This also means your dog will rarely, if ever, be left alone during their stay. We live in a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with a backyard in Scottsdale 85251. We provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles, and care based on your dog’s routine. We’re reliable, communicative, and always send photos and updates. We’ll treat your pet like our own and make sure they feel right at home! :) We both work from home, so at any given time there’s almost always at least one of us home. Your dog will get plenty of attention and will rarely, if ever, be left alone! All dogs are welcome to hang out wherever they like—whether that’s on the couch, sleeping with us in bed, or anywhere else they feel comfortable! We also have a spacious fenced backyard with a grass area. We keep our home nice and cool, especially during the summer, so you never have to worry about your dog overheating.
“Aleksandra was absolutely amazing! She was on time, very communicative, and went above and beyond for our pups! One of our pups can be shy around new people, but he warmed up to her very quickly. Would highly recommend her to everyone and anyone looking for pet care. Will definitely be utilizing her services again in the future :)”
About: Hi, it's nice to meet you! I have been raising dogs from puppyhood for the last 12 years, and I LOVE animals. My friends consider me the "dog whisperer" because I tend to be able to connect with even the most stubborn of dogs. I have raised all different sizes and activity levels including Australian Shepherds (I have one now!), Huskies, Dalmatians, German Shepherds, etc. I work from home and my job is flexible, so it is no problem for me to care for your dog and give them lots of love and attention all throughout the day. I have raised all of these from puppyhood, so I am well versed. We have dogs beds all throughout our house, so there are plenty of comfortable places for them to lay too. I work from home full-time, but my job is very flexible and I have essentially raised from puppyhood and had two dogs my whole career. I take lots of breaks to stretch my legs, and go for lots of walks and am very active. I currently have one miniature Australian Shepherd who is 10 years old and easy to get along with. She mostly keeps to herself and is not particularly social, but is very friendly. She typically sleeps/lives outside of a crate, but she was crate trained and I have crate trained all of my dogs. I recently lost a German Shepherd who loved his crate and slept there in the evenings, but I’ve also babysat/hosted many dogs who don't sleep in crates. I'm open to any situation, so long as they are well-behaved, but I'd ask that if they don't do well when you're away to stick to crates! I have baby gates and an easy layout to our house, so very easy to keep them in the living room and make sure they don't get into anything. My yard is fenced with real grass for them to play on in the back. The home is very peaceful and quiet during the day, so I've tended to find that all the dogs we babysit find it relaxing and nap throughout the day with plenty of breaks for potty and attention.
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.
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!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Scottsdale
Trisha was AMAZING! She was fantastic as a drop in caretaker of my 3 cats and their unique needs. I was able to leave town for nearly 3 weeks and Trisha’s care for my cats put me at ease. She sent tons of photos and is a great communicator. I would 100% book Trisha again and definitely recommend her to others. Thank you Trisha!
Best cat sitter in Scottsdale! 😸✨ I’ve tried a few sitters in the area and have had others from Rover in the past but Stephanie is my favorite by far. She is easy to talk to and welcomes all the minute details about your pets likes, dislikes, needs, and wants, and goes out of her way to make sure they are happy while you’re away. She has much needed common sense that can sometimes be hard to come by, and I feel comfortable trusting her to look after my space and my Squirrely. Thanks Stephanie!!
Thank you Elisa for this great service! We have three cats, all with different personalities. Only the two females don’t get along at all. We’ve practically divided up our house, and it’s become “normal” for us to switch the cats between floors. Can you ask a stranger to do this? Will they understand? Yes and yes! Our first impression of Elisa was immediately positive. Her loving nature was paired with the highest level of professionalism. Our cats came first. Elisa kept us updated the whole time with photos of our furry friends. We were able to enjoy our trip with peace of mind, knowing our cats were in the best hands. We highly recommend Elisa and would book her again anytime. Special thanks to Elisa for this very positive experience with a great heart. And all our plants survived:)
Claire did such an amazing job with my two kitties!! My cats are pretty shy with people but absolutely LOVED her. She really went above and beyond and cared for them like they were her own. Would highly recommend to anyone who feels hesitant when booking a sitter, I had zero stress about my kitties for 5 days of being away. 1000% rebooking Claire :)
Bri was a great cat sitter! She did a great job attending to the litter robot, cat food, and water and she also sent amazing photos of her playing with the cats. It’s great knowing that my boys got a lot of attention while I was away on vacation. Would definitely book 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!
Where do I start with Shelby? From stellar communication to being a clear animal lover to going above and beyond, she exceeded expectations! My daily updates were thorough, including so many great pictures and details. Really made me miss my little guy a bit less knowing he was getting tons of love and attention!! Run, don’t walk, to booking Shelby!! I will book with her in the future without hesitation. 13/10 !
Another wonderful booking with Nancy! Our kitty was still healing from an injury and I was worried to leave her but knowing Nancy was taking care of her, I knew she would be great!!! Always thankful for all of Nancy’s updates and everything she does that goes above and beyond for us!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Scottsdale is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 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 7,441 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Scottsdale. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
