“Kimberly did a wonderful job! She sent pictures, walked the dogs, and when we came home I could tell that all the food and water had been looked after! I especially appreciated her taking the time to play with the dogs too! Definitely will hire her again!”
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing with our kitty! I would hire her again in a heartbeat! She gave him the attention he needed, and made sure he had water and food at all times.”
“Dani was very professional and detailed in the Rover Cards. We enjoyed receiving the updates and photos from her drop-in visits. I would recommend Dani for any Rover.com needs.”
“2 dogs and 3 cats. Pleasant from the 1st meet & greet. Loved the photos daily. Good communication and on time for visits. It’s hard to find someone to trust, so look not further. This can be your person too. Thank you!!”
“Heather is simply amazing! She is incredibly thorough with her visits and always makes sure my pets are well cared for and comfortable. She is friendly, dependable, and very responsive, which gives me so much peace of mind when I am away. I truly appreciate the updates and attention to detail. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after!”
“Faith was wonderful! She kept me updated on how my kitty was doing as well as sending me photos of Minnie Moo. Faith’s reports put my mind at ease that my little kitty was doing well without me which allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation.”
“Krysten was an excellent cat sitter! She was always on time and very flexible. I had to make adjustments to her schedule due to medication issues with my cat and she was very accommodating. I came home and found that my girls were very well cared for. I appreciate Krysten for watching them and I would definitely book her again!”
“Savannah was perfect for our big baby Bleu! She communicated well throughout her check-in visits with him and gave him so much love! We will definitely reach out to Savannah in the future and will miss her until then!”
“Dina was fabulous! This was our first time using Rover and Dina for a 4 day trip. Dina came to our twice per day to take care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats. They loved her and did very well. She was very friendly and prompt to give us pet updates twice per day. We highly recommend Dina and will definitely use her again for our next trip!”
About: I have taken care of dogs in my home and professionally at a daycare/boarding facility. I am an RN and comfortable with meds and first aid. I will treat your dog like my family! I am currently working on starting my own business taking dogs on excursions to keep cool while playing with other dogs. I love dogs and find great satisfaction taking care of them in the home or outdoors. I will strive to maintain the regular routine for your dog. I help them feel comfortable by doing the same things you would do for them. Meal time, bedtime, walking, pottying, etc. all tend to have a routine, and I will keep that routine while pouring out affection to your dog as if they were my own.
About: Hi I’m Kylea! I’m a stay-at-home, homeschooling mom and lifelong animal lover. Animals truly bring me so much joy and happiness and I would love to care for yours! While in my care, your pet(s) will receive tons of love, attention, playtime, and snuggles. Daily updates will be given as well as pictures! I have a lifelong experience caring for dogs, cats, and other small pets, and I will follow any special feeding schedules. I can administer medications if needed, and will accommodate unique care instructions. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I can care for any age whether it’s a puppy and still potty training or a senior dog that needs assistance and gentle care. I know how important our pets are—they’re family. That’s why I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pet(s) is receiving the best care possible. I can’t wait to meet you and your amazing pet(s) and give them a fun, loving home away from home! 🐾💕 I will always be home to love and care for your pet(s). Your pet(s) is my top priority and your request is highly respected for the care of your sweet pet(s). During the AZ summer, dogs will remain inside for the majority of the day but will still get tons of playtime because in our home- we play ball in the house! :) Your pet(s) will have frequent potty breaks and tons of playtime outside when the weather isn’t extremely hot to prevent your sweet pet(s) from being overheated. I have a double fenced yard and tons of space for your pet to play. Artificial grass, a doggie pool for those dogs who love to play in water, tons of toys, an outdoor cooler with pump, & misters and fans (though dogs will never be left outside for a long period of time). As for cats- I will keep them separated in their own, quiet space with their own litter box, food, water, and accessories until they seem to feel comfortable. Then I will introduce the cat(s) slowly to the other cats and the to home.
“Tamara was great. Our 2 dogs and cat seemed very happy with her. She did everything we asked and was always easy to communicate with. We will definitely use her again!”
“Sophia is fantastic! She’s always there when we need her, even on short notice. She takes great care of our pups, giving them plenty of attention and making sure all their needs are met. We’re so grateful to have someone so reliable and caring!”
“Mindy was wonderful with our babies! Both dogs loved her right away at the meet and greet. She provided excellent care and she and Bentley played fetch together. I would highly recommend Mindy!”
“I felt such peace of mind having Kaela take care of my senior cats. She did all that was needed and I felt my cats were very happy to have her come visit them. I would highly recommend Kaela to anyone.”
About: I have always had at least one dog since I no was young. Currently, I have a wiener dog and a rat terrier that my son calls his brother and sister. I am available weekends to hang out with dogs. I have a huge gated yard and a doggy door for guests to enjoy. My husband and I can be home as needed to watch guests during the weekends! I’m open to dogs during the week, but we do work outside of the home. I’m happy to provide water and pee pads or doggy door access if you’re ok with the radio as company! Let me know! Pets in my home are treated like my very own! I have tile floors in the living room and kitchen, as well as dog beds (and of course the couch!) to make them comfortable.

This is the second time I've used Savannah to watch my two cats. It's nice to know they are in such great hands while I'm away - I don't worry about them at all. She takes the time to interact with them and treat them as I would. I would highly recommend her to anyone!
Im so grateful to Issy taking care of my babies. I have a regular babysitter who is gone for the summer and am always nervous to trust someone new but she honestly exceeded my expectations and I just booked her again for next month. The thorough updates she provides really puts me at ease and I was surprised that even my most timid kitty warmed up to her immediately. 🩷
Sage was a wonderful pet sitter to my cat. It was for a few checkins over a 1.5 week timeframe and she showed up on time reliably for every check in. She went above and beyond taking care of my cat including litter box cleaning and verifying he had plenty of food and water. The cat gets lonely if we're gone for too long so she was able to provide him great company. Definitely recommend!
Sophia went WAY above and beyond what we asked of her with no questions asked. We were honestly expecting to return to a horrifically dirty house because of our 4 animals after a week! We returned to an almost spotless house with many countermeasures put in place to prevent our animals from destroying everything! Thanks Sophia!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Surprise on Rover is $17.12 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 5,373 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Surprise. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Surprise stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Surprise. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
