“She’s amazing with our Bo! She was very communicative and let us know what’s happening good or bad. This is my second time booking with Michelle and I would book her over and over again! 10/10”

“Adam took great care of my two pups. He was so patient and calm with my anxious dog and friendly and playful with my eager dog. He showed great intuition and I’ll definitely be asking for his help again in the future.”
About: I dog sat for multiple family's throughout high school and after. I was regularly staying at the homes for either a weekend or a full week. I love all animals and will always respect the home I stay at. I have some knowledge of how to train too I won't say I'm a professional by any means, but growing up with dogs and taking care of them I have picked up a few tricks. I will also get the best pictures of your fur baby's to send you ofc. I'm currently just a student at Scottsdale Community College, so I have plenty of time to provide you with the best care for your pets. I have lot of experience staying in clients homes, and I am very good with respecting the home and schedule of your dog. I also love going on walks with them in the nice weather.
“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. ❤️”
“Sophia is awesome! I had no worries at all when I left my cat in her care. My cat warmed up to her very quickly and she was very respectful of his boundaries and needs. She played with him everyday and gave him lots of hugs. I will definitely re-book!”
About: I have had animals in my home since before I was born. I have volunteered at animal shelters for several years where I would walks dogs and spend time with both dogs and cats. I have fostered many dogs and one litter of cats, including some medical fosters. I have pet sat both dogs and cats for 4 years. I am currently a full-time student with some breaks throughout the day. I am available Wednesdays after 3:30pm, Thursdays after 12:30pm, Fridays from 11am-1pm and then after 4pm, and Saturdays and Sundays all day. I have a dog-friendly park right across from my house. There is plenty of space inside for them to roam if they’d like. Although I do not have a crate, I can easily crate for owners who have one.
“She was absolutely wonderful! Super responsive, sent lots of pictures and updates, and took such great care of my dogs. I never had to worry while I was away, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Avery provided exceptional care for my dog, Jax, over the weekend. Jax loved her and was visibly excited every time she visited. She sent over a ton of pictures, which I really appreciated. Avery ensured he was well-fed, hydrated, and had ample outdoor time. She even took the time to play with him and make sure he wasn’t lonely! I highly recommend Avery for pet care and look forward to using her services again in the future.”
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: I've been a devoted dog mom for years, and I know firsthand that pets are family! My two dogs, Ellie and Benny, keep me active, entertained, and on my toes every day. I've cared for dogs through all stages of life, including the senior years, and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and paying attention to their individual personalities and needs. I bring a strong Midwestern work ethic, a friendly personality, and a genuine love for animals. I enjoy long walks, outdoor adventures, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your dog needs exercise, your cat needs some company, or you're looking for someone dependable to check in while you're away, I'm happy to help! I'm respectful of your home, attentive to your pet's routines, and committed to clear communication. You'll receive updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. Reliable, responsible, and always happy to share a little extra love and attention! 🐾 I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate dog walks and pet visits throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and some evenings and weekends. As a dog mom myself, daily walks and caring for animals are already part of my routine! I enjoy being active and outdoors, and I'm happy to coordinate visits around your pet's normal schedule. Whether you need occasional help or recurring visits, I'm dependable, communicative, and happy to work with your needs. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I understand how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and leave your pets in their care. I carefully follow your instructions, respect your pet's routines, and pay attention to their individual needs and personalities. I always make sure doors and gates are secure, leashes are properly attached, and pets have fresh water and plenty of attention. I'm respectful of your home and will provide updates and photos during visits so you always know how your furry family member is doing. My goal is to make the experience stress-free for both you and your pets!
“Veronika was quick to respond to my initial request. This was for a short, but important trip. Veronika reassured me that my baby, Stache was in good hands, & I got the Rover cards with each visit. If she is available, I will definitely request Veronika again!”
“Katie is wonderful. Easy to communicate with and made leaving our old man at home easy knowing he was in capable hands. Photos and updates were great and correspondence over our worries about him were put to ease. Thank you for being great!!”
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.
About: Animals have been at the center of my life for over 25 years. Growing up in a lively, multi-pet home with up to a dozen animals at a time, I developed an early, intuitive understanding of pack dynamics, varied temperaments, and individual routines. Over the years, I’ve cared for everything from high-energy miniature pinchers and sensitive rescue cats to large breeds like Danes Boxers and Shepherds, alongside maintaining freshwater aquariums and caring for birds. Because most of our family pets have been rescues, I am exceptionally patient with shy, anxious, or reactive animals and know how to build trust on their terms. Whether your pet needs a calm presence, structured daily routines, or close attention to specialized diets and habitat care, I treat every animal in my care with the safety, attentiveness, and love they deserve. I specialize in mid-day drop-ins and dog walking between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM on weekdays. This focused timeframe allows me to provide reliable, on-time mid-day relief, companionship, and exercise for pets while their owners are away at work. To me, pets aren’t just animals—they are family members and beloved babies. I treat client homes and their pets with absolute respect, reliability, and care. During every visit, I keep safety at the forefront: ensuring secure entry and exit points so no pet slips out, keeping walks controlled and attentive, and watching body language closely to ensure your pet is happy and comfortable. I treat your living space with the highest level of care, respect all home security and camera guidelines, and ensure your doors and gates are double-checked and locked tight before I leave.
“Jamie was great and a savior. My normal sitter couldn’t do the weekend so I was scrambling for someone. She luckily said yes to a last minute weekend drop in visits for my pup.”
“Ashley was great with my very difficult dog! He has really bad separation anxiety and she didn’t give up on him. I will definitely book her again (with some more introductions for her sake!)”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Scottsdale is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Scottsdale
As always, Shelby was amazing with our cat, Lucy. She took so many great photos for us, gave her plenty of playtime and affection, and we could tell she was so excited and happy whenever Shelby was over. Thank you for making our travel a little less worrisome knowing she was in good hands!! ❤️
John is the besttttt. Seriously. It’s hard to trust a stranger with your fur babies, but we felt totally comfortable with John and our nuggets warmed to him right away. It’s obvious he’s a cat person and really cares about each animal. We were so relieved to know our cats had John to take care of them, give meds, and keep them calm and happy while we were gone.
Michelle was super nice, and great with our cat, Lucy! We had a few change-ups around our trip and she was very accommodating and communicative throughout the whole time. On the last day she had a major family emergency and still went out of her way to make sure Lucy was okay, fed, and happy. Would recommend and would rebook for upcoming trips too!!!
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:)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Scottsdale is $22 per visit as of November 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 November 2026, there are 7,419 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 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
