“Shelbie was amazing and I will definitely book with her again. We had a unique situation where one of our cats wasn't doing well health wise and Shelbie was very compassionate and willing to be there however she could. She took care of our other cat like he was her own. This meant the world to me as we were anxious about leaving him alone for over a week. Shelbie is the kind of person you want to take care of your furry loved ones.”
About: I grew up with dogs my entire life and have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I have two dogs of my own who are my children and any pet I care for will be treated as if they’re my own. I have a lot of experience caring for older dogs since my parents dogs lived until they were 16 and 17yo. I have a full-time work from home job that I can do from anywhere as long as you have internet. I do work nights but work every other week. If you don’t mind me working while your pet sleeps I can sit on weeks I work. My job allows me plenty of flexibility to provide the best care for your pet. First and foremost, I care for every pet as if they’re my own. It’s a big deal to leave someone/something you love with another person, not just for you but for your pet. I will adapt to whatever routine your pet is on. However, I don’t do off leash play outside of a fenced yard or walks.
“Sherri was absolutely fantastic! She took great care of our two cats and provided cute photos and updates so we knew how they were doing. I will be booking with Sherri for all my future trips. Thank you so much for taking care of my kitties!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is My Energy im able and willing to give. Positive Loving energy like none other! Im sure your pet will fall in love with me and myself in turn, will fall in love with your pet as well. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since about 9 yrs. Of age. Family, Family Friends, Friends, and Neighborhood families have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets if need be. What are you waiting for?! Lets Connect!! Im available to watch All Pets (Dogs, Cats, etc.) currently throughout the week. As clientele grows, my schedule will change but will be notified in advance always! My place has a very big yard area for easy potty relief but will also take them out for a walk to release as well. Im able to easily crate your dog if need be. There is ample amount of space in the living room which help makes it a puppyroom/kittyroom depending on your pet and preference. They also have free reign to walk around throughout my place, wherever they choose. Cannot forget Treats! (only with parents permission of course)
About: New to Rover, but not new to showing love and affection to any dog, cat, or other animal who needs the attention. From pugs and chihuahuas to labradors and mastiffs, I have experience with caring for both dogs and cats of various temperaments and sizes. Good with dietary needs and specific feeding schedules, as well as pills, eye drops, and oral injections if needed. I work from home full time as a marketing project manager with standard business hours from 9am - 5pm, but with very flexible down time during the day. I like to take frequent breaks from the computer, during which time I can play, walk, or feed your pet. I have significant respect for my client's home - I am there to work and care for your beloved pet. It's important to me that your pet feels safe and comforted in their own home while their parents are away. Maintaining those boundaries helps to ensure a peaceful and secure environment.
“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.”
“Sara was so wonderful with our Dogs, Cat and fish! She was very caring and helpful with packages as well. Sara understands our border collie and chihuahua’s needs and they love to play with her! Thanks Sara!”
About: 🐾 About Me Dogs have always been a big part of my life! I grew up around dogs, and my very first dog was Tequila, a Rottweiler, who gave me my love for big dogs and their big personalities. ❤️ I’ve also volunteered at a Humane Society, where I was responsible for walking dogs of all sizes and personalities, from small, easygoing pups to larger dogs who were more nervous, energetic, or challenging to handle. This experience taught me how important patience, confidence, and understanding each dog’s individual needs can be. Today, I’m a proud dog mom to Macho, my 3-year-old Pomeranian. 🐶 He keeps me on my toes and reminds me that little dogs can have BIG personalities! I also regularly pet sit my sister-in-law’s two Australian Shepherds, Mavy and Leroy, so I’m comfortable caring for both small and large, high-energy dogs. Whether your pup needs a walk, some playtime, companionship, or simply someone they can feel comfortable and safe with while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family. My goal is to make sure every dog in my care feels loved, comfortable, and happy. 🐾❤️ I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pup! 🐾 My Schedule I’m currently available Monday–Friday after 7 PM for dog walks and drop-in visits. On weekends, I have more flexibility and can provide pet sitting in your home or take your pup on walks and adventures. 🐶❤️ I’m happy to work around your schedule whenever possible! I care for pets in their home by following their routine, keeping them comfortable and safe, and giving them plenty of attention, walks, playtime, food, and fresh water. I also keep their space clean and send updates so you know how they’re doing.
“We were nervous about leaving our dog for the first time, but Mercedes immediately put us at ease. She was kind, professional, and attentive, and sent daily photo updates that made all the difference. It was clear our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. Mercedes’ reliability and genuine care made the experience completely stress-free. We’re so grateful and will definitely be booking with her again!”

I’m currently working 6a-3pm at the humane society. I am free for evenings and overnights every day of the week! And all day availability on days off! Whether it’s a walk outside or indoor enrichment, I can provide both for your pets! I can help with medications and feeding schedules. Safety and comfort is my #1 priority with your pets!
“Brody has been very attentive and positive with my 1 yr old King Charles and 12 yr old Sheltie. It was comforting to see how happy my fur babies were while I was away. I would highly recommend Brody!”
“Joy did a wonderful job coming in to my home to feed and sift litter for my cat, Pusheen. She was always on time, notified me when she came in and left the house, and sent plenty of pictures and comments. I definitely would recommend her!”

“Michelle was perfect!! Her love of dogs is evident and she was so great with my big energetic dog, she knew just how to handle him. I just needed someone to be with him for a couple hours and Michelle was super accommodating and she went above and beyond to play with him and she even sent me some really cute pictures. 10/10 will be using again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Sun Lakes is $21 per visit as of November 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 November 2026, there are 6,153 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sun Lakes. 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 Sun Lakes. 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.
