“This was the first time I did boarding with Chandra. I could tall from the pictures that she was happy and had a good time. Cindy sent updates and pictures. This was a great experience for me and for Chandra. I recommend Cindy 110%. She is awesome!”

“We couldn’t be happier with Eric‘s dog sitting service! He cared for our puppy, Izzy for 16 days and truly went above and beyond. From daily walks to giving her medicine and making sure she felt safe and comfortable at home, he treated her as if she were his own. Eric‘s home is spotless, welcoming, and perfectly suited for dogs. Izzy was pampered the whole time, and we loved receiving the constant stream of photos and videos that kept us connected while we were away. This with a surprise was the custom-made poop bag pouch with a cutout of Izzy - such a thoughtful gift! We felt completely at ease knowing Izzy was in his care and will absolutely turn to Eric again whenever we need help. Highly recommended!”

“We had such a great experience with Alani! From the start, she made us feel really comfortable by inviting us into her home to see exactly where our dog would be staying and to meet her family. That meant a lot to us. It felt very welcoming and gave me peace of mind knowing the environment he’d be in. Her home is beautiful and very well kept, which made it even easier to feel confident leaving our pupper in her care. Communication throughout was excellent, and we always felt informed and reassured. We’ll absolutely be booking with Alani again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

“Ashley was an amazing dog sitter! She kept me updated throughout Macy’s stay with messages and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind.

We did a pre meet up and when I went to drop him off on he actual weekend, he ran right up to the door excited. I got frequent updates on how he was doing and pick was flexible after a flight delay! Our dog is not food motivated and she would add a couple drops of broth to his bowl to make sure he got some food. I appreciate the extra attention to his care! We will def use Pamela again for future sitting.”

She kept me updated with pictures and messages, and it was obvious how much she genuinely cared. Peanut came home happy, relaxed, and so well cared for. It's not easy trusting someone with your dog, but she made the whole experience stress-free. I will absolutely be booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter!🫶”

We'll definitely be booking with her in the future!”

“We are so lucky to have found Valerie to watch our cat. This was our first long trip away since adopting him and she has made this so much easier. You can tell how compassionate and attentive she is during her visits. Her Rover cards are absolutely amazing and super detailed and she sends like 20+ pictures every drop in. We will definitely be using Valerie to watch our fur baby for next trips away.”

About: I have the time, patience, and heart to give your dog the attention they deserve—whether it’s for walks, cuddles, or just good company while you’re away. I do work M-F on a 8am to 5pm schedule so anytime around that works for me whether that’s after work or the weekends! Once I’m staying in the house, I try to keep everything as close to the pet’s normal routine as possible. That means feeding them at the right times, sticking to their usual walk or play schedule, and giving them attention if they’re used to a lot of company. If they’re shy or independent, I respect that too. I pay attention to their body language so I can tell if they need more space or more love.

About: I love animals. I worked at as a Veterinary Tech for 8 years. Where I walked, feed, medicated, and grooms dogs and cats. I am very passionate about dogs getting potty breaks and exercise. I love walking dogs. Animals tend to gravitate towards me when I enter a house. I also love cats and the therapy that they bring. Cats are amazing in the skills that they have so I love being around them. I am great with all breeds from large to tiny. Smaller dogs need lots of extra loving such as sitting in laps and larger dogs tend usually to like fetch and outside activities I am also very comfortable about dispensing medication if needed and if instructions are left for me to follow.
“We had our first Rover experience last week. Tom come over to visit our two cats daily for three days. He was meticulous in cleaning the litter boxes, filling food bowls and providing lots of clean water. We have two fountains which he made sure didn’t run dry. Every day we received pictures and a short note from Tom. We were really pleased that we had no worries about the cats’ health and well-being. We will definitely be using Rover again and requesting Tom specifically.”

About: I'm from Costa Rica, but I've been in AZ for 10 years now. I've had dogs pretty much my whole life. Now I live in Tempe near the mall, and there's a park right by my apartment. My job's flexible, so I can give whatever care is needed. I love all breeds. I work from home for Bank of America, so I get off around 3 or 4, depending on daylight savings. I've got a play area in the living room with pee pads and toys for the pets, and I'll make sure to walk them when it's cooler in the morning and evening.

“Cindy is fantastic. Our dog spent a few workdays while one of us was traveling, and he clearly felt comfortable and happy while at the same time Cindy provided a structured, calm, and enriching environment for him. He got walks and puzzles and even another dog friend to play with on occasion. Cindy was very patient, attentive, and kind. She has an excellent confident demeanor and establishes boundaries effectively and naturally with the pups. I would recommend Cindy in a heartbeat.”
“Jim&Ivy took exceptional care of our Goldendoodle Bingo. Jim gave regular updates with photos how Bingo was doing . And was very flexible dropping off and picking up Bingo. Jim and Ivy took Bingo for walks and played with him. I highly recommended Jim and Ivy for your pets Boarding and Daycare needs.”

“Barclay had a great time and we got pictures of him throughout the day. Ashley was flexible with us about picking him up later at night, which was really appreciated.”


“We needed someone to watch our 7 year old German Shepherd during the day while I went off and played old man baseball. Kelly turned out to be perfect. Very flexible and didn’t require any of these meet and greets a number of Rover sitters want. Being from out of town that never works. She sent pictures and videos four the four days we used her. Can’t really say much more she seemed to like him and he came back a tired pup. Good Job!!!”

About: I’ve been a passionate dog mom since college and have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats for neighbors, friends, and family. I’m also the proud parent of two wonderful Bernedoodles (a 3-year-old and a 2-year-old!), so I am completely in my element managing multiple pets, handling high-energy dogs, and keeping up with active routines. Having my own fur babies means I deeply understand how important consistency, structure, and endless affection are to a pet's well-being.

You can rest assured your fur babies will be cared for in a structured, loving, and highly attentive home!
About: My name is Evelyn and I have taken care of my own pets for about 10 year. I own one dog named Bella, and we have 2 cats in the house. Typically I feed pets around 8am and take them out for 10 minutes for morning potty break. I work from home so there's plenty of potty breaks and just hanging around inside. Sometimes I'll take them out for a walk to the park .5 miles away. I work from home so I'm already taking care of my dog. Just feeding her and giving her attention throughout the day. Adding another dog for a day or as needed wouldn't change much for us. :) I first learn their feeding schedule and energy levels. Based on that I will make a schedule for play time with them, have plenty of water and treats, and a comfy bed for them to lay on.

I am self employed in multiple platforms so I am always available and free to care for your animal or even just dog walking, you can count on me !

“Sara was amazing with my boy, Nox. Despite needing to make a few modifications to the booking because of unexpected work plans, I am grateful Sara was able to accomodate my schedule changes. She had great communication and would update me with photos regularly. It gave me total piece of mind that my dog was in good hands. I'd be happy work with Sara again in the future.”

About: I've always had a love for animals and have spent years caring for pets of all kinds. I have experience with dogs, cats, hamsters, and even tortoises, which have helped me become comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and care routines. Growing up, before I had pets of my own, I loved helping friends and family care for their pets whenever I had the chance, and spending time with animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy! I also have experience with younger pets. My first dog and cats were all under a year old when I got them, so I am familiar with the extra attention, patience, and care that puppies and kittens need while they're still growing and learning. As a student at ASU, I'm not able to have a pet of my own right now, which is one of the reasons I joined Rover! I really miss being around animals and would love the opportunity to care for your pets while giving them lots of attention, companionship, and affection. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I will always treat them like family, while making sure you feel comfortable and updated while they're in my care! 🐾 I am currently on summer break from ASU and not working another job, so I have very open availability throughout the week. I am flexible with scheduling and available most days, which allows me to give pets consistent attention and care. I am happy to work around what best fits your pet's routine and needs! I do not currently have pets of my own, but I have previous experience caring for both dogs and cats. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet I care for. With dogs, I enjoy taking them of walks and making sure they get proper exercise and stimulation. With all animals, I focus on reading their energy and making sure they feel comfortable and happy no matter what mood they're in. I always aim to treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they feel safe and cared for in any setting.
About: I have lived with animals my whole life. Because I move a lot, I do not own a pet of my own, but I watch and care for my friends' and roommates' pets as much as I can so I can get my fix. I understand the importance of trust and comfort when leaving your pet with someone. My active lifestyle allows me to keep dogs engaged with exercise, and my calm nature helps soothe more anxious or shy pets. I work during the week, and I will mainly be available to petsit during weekends: Friday night, Saturdays, and Sundays. I do occasionally work from home and can watch your fur babies on a case by case basis on weekdays! I love running, hiking, and movement. If comfortable, I would love to hike with your pup! Additionally, I am an early riser, and I can do early. morning walks or drop ins (5:00 AM-7:00 AM) everyday. For dogs, I love incorporating activities like walks, runs, and hikes into our day, providing them with plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I'm always mindful of their safety, keeping an eye on weather conditions and ensuring they have access to fresh water and shade. With cats, I focus on maintaining their normal routines and giving them plenty of love and attention. Whether it's playtime with their favorite toys, brushing sessions, or just curling up for some quiet time, I make sure they feel secure and happy. In both settings, I keep communication open with the pet owners, sending updates and photos so they know their furry family members are in good hands.
About: I can not think of a single moment in my life where an animal was not present. I have been caring for pets my whole life and that love brought me to my career as a vet tech. I am not only comfortable checking in on pets & walking them but I am extremely proficient in all things animal care when it comes to medical care. I have worked at multiple practices, ranging from Emergency & Critical Care to General Practices to Specialty (Neurology). I am Basic & Advanced Life Support certified. I can safely and efficiently administer medications for all pet needs. I am fluent in Spanish as well. I am free to care for our furry friends 24/7. I care for my own two furbabies but aspire to be a bridge between pet owners and pet care. I treat and care for animals as my own, because how you do something and how well you do it matters. I make sure I follow instructions very carefully to ensure a safe and happy reunification of pets and their owners.

“Teresa has been absolutely wonderful with Stella, has walked her every day from 8 weeks to 6 months around lunch to help my husband and I with our work schedule. She provides clear communication and plenty of pictures and has been very flexible with our work schedules. My dog loves her! Would highly recommend her.”

You and your pet’s trust and safety is extremely important to me. I want to make sure I respect everyone’s boundaries, as well as make sure everyone is happy! I will play with your pets and back off when needed. Pictures will be sent at request, as well. I love cuddle bugs, but will make sure it is what they want.

“The best dog sitter ever!!! Honestly Trinity goes the extra mile to make your dog happy. My lab is a big boy and she can get him to play and be totally exhausted when he gets home. He has gotten used to their daily walks and waits for her everyday. When we go back to Seattle we will truly miss her! This experience has been beyond my expectations! Thanks!”


About: Hi! I’m Courtney, a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, daycare, or overnight stay, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I understand that every pet has their own routine, quirks, and needs, and I do my best to make their time with me feel as close to home as possible. For pets staying in our home, safety and comfort are my top priorities. All pets are fed separately to ensure an stress-free mealtime experience, and they’re welcome on the furniture for snuggles and relaxation. We also have plenty of toys available for sharing, enrichment, and playtime throughout the day. Our large, grassy backyard gives dogs plenty of space to explore and enjoy outdoor time and sunbathe. You’ll receive regular photo updates and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and love building lasting relationships with both pets and their people. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my days around caring for my own dog. Daily walks, playtime, feeding schedules, enrichment, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for are already a regular part of my life. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate drop-ins, walks, daycare, and overnight care throughout the week. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets feels less like a task and more like something I truly love doing. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I’m also comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and adapting to each pet’s personality and needs. I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. In my own home, pets are treated like family. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of supervision, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and space to relax. I also have a friendly, well-socialized dog who does well with other animals, and I always prioritize slow introductions and safety to make sure everyone is comfortable.
About: I have the time, patience, and heart to give your dog the attention they deserve—whether it’s for walks, cuddles, or just good company while you’re away. I do work M-F on a 8am to 5pm schedule so anytime around that works for me whether that’s after work or the weekends! Once I’m staying in the house, I try to keep everything as close to the pet’s normal routine as possible. That means feeding them at the right times, sticking to their usual walk or play schedule, and giving them attention if they’re used to a lot of company. If they’re shy or independent, I respect that too. I pay attention to their body language so I can tell if they need more space or more love.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats since I was born! We have never had less than 5 pets in the house. I grew up dog and cat sitting and am comfortable dealing with challenging pets. I have been a walker on here for over a year now and love meeting your sweet pets. I am currently attending naturopathic medical school in Tempe. I have early morning availability as well as sporadically through the afternoons and evenings. I should be able to work around just about any schedule. I am also a slow but passionate runner and am happy to include runs as well :) I have a lot of experience dealing with difficult pets. I can handle big and loud dogs, crazy chihuahuas, temperamental cats, and more. I grew up pet sitting and dog walking and am able to appreciate each and every pet for who they are.
About: I have had pets all of my life and loved to care for them. I used to work at a veterinary office as a kennel tech along with both my mom and sister so we are a animal loving family. I am working part time right now, but can make time for your furry friends. I am willing to stop by in the mornings and night or board them at my home. My schedule varies every week so shoot me a message and we can work it out! As a past kennel technician I can assure that your pet will be safe with me! I do not have any other pets. I am in an apartment complex but it has lots of grass and a dog park to keep those paws cool.
“Mel is awesome !! I feel so comfortable leaving Brewster in her care. She's so friendly, caring and punctual. She always gives detailed status updates after walks/ when she is boarding, and makes sure to send pics :) I had a bad experience prior to Mel and am SO relieved and happy to have found someone as great as her. I would recommend Mel to anyone 100%!”

“Sergio & Bethany are a very responsible and caring family. Our dog daisy was comfortable during her stay. We felt at ease leaving her in their care and we are planning on using their services again.”

“We couldn’t be happier with Eric‘s dog sitting service! He cared for our puppy, Izzy for 16 days and truly went above and beyond. From daily walks to giving her medicine and making sure she felt safe and comfortable at home, he treated her as if she were his own. Eric‘s home is spotless, welcoming, and perfectly suited for dogs. Izzy was pampered the whole time, and we loved receiving the constant stream of photos and videos that kept us connected while we were away. This with a surprise was the custom-made poop bag pouch with a cutout of Izzy - such a thoughtful gift! We felt completely at ease knowing Izzy was in his care and will absolutely turn to Eric again whenever we need help. Highly recommended!”

“Our dogs always love staying at Brooke’s home. Very thankful to have a place we can trust they will be well taken care of when we travel out of country.”

“They accepted a last minute 2 night booking for my golden and she was well cared for. They respond to messages very promptly and kept us updated with photos. They have an awesome back yard too!”

“Susan and Peter were amazing! Coco was so comfortable and well taken care of at their house. They provided frequent updates and photos, which we really appreciated. We are planning to have Coco visit Susan and Peter again in a few weeks. I would highly recommend them to any pet owner looking for a trusted sitter.”

“We had such a great experience with Alani! From the start, she made us feel really comfortable by inviting us into her home to see exactly where our dog would be staying and to meet her family. That meant a lot to us. It felt very welcoming and gave me peace of mind knowing the environment he’d be in. Her home is beautiful and very well kept, which made it even easier to feel confident leaving our pupper in her care. Communication throughout was excellent, and we always felt informed and reassured. We’ll absolutely be booking with Alani again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”


“Great dog sitter! She was friendly, communicated well, and sent regular updates that gave us peace of mind. We would definitely recommend her and book with her again!”

“Rachael and Tim were amazing with our Corgi. From the moment we had our first visit with them, we knew it would be a good fit. Rachael did a fantastic job of keeping us updated throughout our dog’s stay with her. She is one of the best I’ve seen and always communicates. We will def use them again!”

“Consistent videos, enormous property, playful environment, and I don't know if I've ever met anyone who loves dogs as much as Marina. It's was so so sweet to see all the videos of her hanging and playing with the animals. My dog can sometimes be a bit fussy but she immediately had him loving and obeying her. Will definitely come back!”

“We got so many updates & pictures while away & our dog was so happy staying with Madison. We felt way more comfortable leaving him with her than boarding at a kennel. We would definitely use Madison in the future :)”

“Kaitlin has now watched Rooster at least four times. Now when I drop him off, he happily follows her in without any fuss. When he comes home, he’s in good spirits and not overly tired or overly energetic. To me that’s a sign that things are going well. I will keep coming to Kaitlin.”


“Darbi and Nate were great! We had a few schedule changes post-booking and they were so flexible and accommodating. They took Finny in and just loved on him so much! Sent updates and pictures which was great! In fact…we’re convinced that the poor dog is mad we brought him home 😂 Highly recommend!!”

“We were stuck in Orlando for2 extra days, flight was canceled due to snowstorms. My dogs had enough food for their initial stay. Ezra and Reina took it all in stride. "No worries, we'll take care of them." They went out of their way to get Aurora's special dietary kibble. Fabulous, fabulous people. Thank you so very much for taking such good care of my 4 legged family!”


“Elena took amazing care of Teddy, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was kind, professional, and treated him like her own dog from the moment I dropped him off. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and when I picked him up, Teddy was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious that she truly loves animals and goes above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and safe. I highly recommend Elena to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter, and I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Maritza was wonderful and gave me daily updates and photos of Otis. Her two young daughters were also pictured with Otis and they were loving towards him. Otis appeared content and happy. I would definitely recommend Maritza as a loving and caring pet sitter. I will consider her as my first choice in the future.”

“Veronica and her husband were amazing!! Super great communication from start to finish and I just knew my dog was in great hands. Veronica stayed in touch with pictures of my pup and let me know how he was doing. I will definitely be using them again when we go out of town again!!!”

“Seriously so amazing! My pup came home super happy to have spent some time with Huaqing! So communicative and provided frequent updates for how my pup was doing! You’ll be so happy and thankful to have Huaqing watch your fur baby”

“Amber took great care of my dog! My dog had a diarrhea and she was so patient about it, she kept me posted and was giving me a lot of good advice. She’s the best!”


“David was so great to Rudy & Leahy. He communicated well, took phenomenal care of them (multiple walks daily) and gave them all the puppy love! I will request David to watch them every time moving forward. He is a great guy who cares about your animals like they are his own.”
