About: I always seem to be the first call from friends or family to check on the pets. Expert house sitter at this point. Love to play and take care of animals I work from home M-T 7:00am to 4:30PM and Friday 8:00 AM to 12:00PM. So pretty flexible and could also work from any place if house sitting. I live in a first floor apartment with l Lots of walking paths and other dogs. I have one cat who is use to being around other animals
“This is the first time we have ever had anyone come to our home to look in and take care of our dogs and Teresa made us feel very much at ease to do so!! Our fur babies loved her and it showed when we got back home! Thank you so much!! I would highly recommend Teresa anytime!!!”
“Jadon did an amazing job caring for my two cats while I was away. He consistently sent photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel like I could truly trust him with my pets and my home. What stood out the most was seeing how comfortable my cats were with him in the pictures. They're usually selective about people, and it was obvious that they trusted him and felt safe in his care. I would absolutely recommend Jadon to anyone. He’s truly reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy.”

“Adrienne was very attentive, caring, knowledgeable, prompt, and just a lovely carer to my cat, Wonton. She went above and beyond the call of duty and really got to know my kitty and his style in a short time. She played with him, showered him with attention, brushed him, gave him plenty of cuddles, and send tons of lovely pics. Will be using her again 100%.”
“Taylor was great! Our dogs can be a little tricky, but she did great with them! She was very punctual, provided lots of information after each visit, and made sure to keep us updated!”
About: I've loved animals since I was a kid — that's where it all started. Growing up with pets taught me how much joy and comfort they bring to a home, and that's exactly why I love working with them today. Every pet has their own personality, and getting to know each one — their quirks, their routines, the way they wag or purr when they're happy — is the best part of my job. I treat every animal like my own. I have 4 years of hands-on experience caring for pets, which has given me a solid foundation in daily care, feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping pets happy and safe while their families are away. I'm also trained to administer oral medication to pets, so I can confidently care for animals with daily meds or special health needs — giving you peace of mind that your furry family member is in good hands. I'd love the chance to meet you and your pet! I absolutely love animals and right now I am pet sitting as my full time job as college allows me a flexible schedule to do so! I follow instructions to the T. I give them as much love as possible and maybe sneak them some treats every now and then. I make sure that everything is as safe and secure as possible as well for peace of mind.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Tempe is $20

She was organized, responsive, and always positive to speak to. We appreciate all your help and the adorable pictures we got while away!
She was absolutely wonderful! Very nice, dependable, and punctual for every visit. She communicated with me each time she stopped by and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She followed all of my instructions carefully and made sure my cat was well taken care of. I really appreciated how reliable and attentive she was throughout the entire booking. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pet! 🐾💕
This is my second time booking with Adrienne and she’s still so amazing :) Her report cards are so detailed and she sends so many photos which I absolutely love. She cares so much for Fiona May and not only makes sure she is safe and well fed but also properly stimulated and loved. As a helicopter bunny mom, I feel like I’ve won the lottery finding Adrienne. She is truly special.
Claudia was amazing watching our 9mo old kitten Pepper! Leaving her alone for the first time was intimidating but Claudia made it such a seamless experience. We got pictures every day and she kept us updated on eating habits and any concerns. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a top tier pet sitter! Thank you so much!
Courtney did a phenomenal job with my cat Domi. She went out of her way to make sure my baby felt comfortable while I was away. She checked in on her every day, fed her, filled her feeder and went above and beyond for my girl. She is professional and trustworthy. I highly recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a phenomenal care taker for their pets.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Tempe on Rover is $20.33 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,450 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Tempe. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tempe. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
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.
