About: I believe dogs are one of God's best creations as they bring so much joy and happiness in cute, snuggly form. They are smart and hilarious, and each one has a unique personality. I believe in simple boundaries with them and rewards for good behavior, with space for relaxation and some for play time. My schedule is very flexible which gives me freedom to take your dog for a morning walk, play with them mid-day, feed them dinner, or just hang out. My friends have trusted me to drop in during their busy work days for years. When boarding your dog at our home, I will often play with the dog inside where it's cool, and take them for leashed walks through our neighborhood. We do not have a fence so there is no outside free roaming at this time.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life, so caring for them comes very naturally to me. I truly enjoy spending time with animals; whether that’s going on walks, playing, or simply being there to keep them company. I’m patient and attentive, and I like to take things at each pet’s pace so they feel safe and comfortable. I do my best to follow their routine closely and create a calm, familiar environment while you’re away. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is being cared for. I have a pretty flexible schedule, so I’m able to accommodate pet care needs throughout the day. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s routine. Let me know what your pet needs, I’m always happy to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first with me. I follow their routine as closely as possible; whether that’s feeding schedules, crate time, potty breaks, or playtime. Every pet is different, so I take the time to learn what they need to feel safe and comfortable. I’ll always make sure they’re well cared for and in a calm, loving environment.

“Kat was awesome! She came over for a meet and greet, followed all of my animals’ needs, took the cutest pictures, and communicated great through the whole process for a drop-in visit! 100 percent rebooking if we need her again! (Side-note, she didn’t let my dog’s jumping stop her from coming over and providing care, which is a plus!!)”

About: I have taken care of animals basically my whole life and I am definitely an animal lover! Neighbors, friends and family rely on me to take care of their fur babies. I personally have 1 dog and 3 cats. I am familiar with administering medication to both cats and dogs. I have experience bathing dogs of all sizes. I am also experienced with taking care of newborn kittens. The total amount of animals I have cared for at a time was 9 animals. I have also fostered animals voluntarily and I look forward to helping many more animals in the future! I am available 7 days a week. My schedule is very flexible and I am open to any timing that meets your needs and your fur babies! I am a very go with the flow person so depending on the animal I do different activities with them such as walking pets outside, playing ball, playing with cats and giving them the most attention they deserve.

About: About Me 😸 Hi, I'm Maggie! I bring extensive, professional hands-on veterinary industry (including ER) experience to every pet I care for. For me, pet sitting isn't a hobby—it is a commitment to providing the absolute highest standard of safety, comfort, and specialized care. Whether your dog needs a high-energy walking partner or your senior cat requires a gentle, patient companion, I tailor my routine entirely to your pet's unique personality and medical needs. Why Choose Me? • Advanced Medical Knowledge: With my veterinary background, I am completely comfortable administering oral medications, topical treatments, and injections. I can expertly read animal body language to spot subtle signs of stress, discomfort, or medical changes before they become issues. • Special Needs & Senior Care Experts: I welcome senior pets, puppies, and animals recovering from surgery or managing chronic illnesses. I know exactly how to maintain strict care schedules. • Safety First, Always: My industry experience means I treat emergency preparedness as a top priority. You will receive regular, detailed updates and photo check-ins so you can enjoy your time away with 100% peace of mind. Please reach out with any questions or to schedule a Meet & Greet! Because pet care is my primary focus, your pet will never be left alone for long periods. • Boarding / House Sitting: I maintain a consistent, predictable routine. Pets are never left unattended for more than 2 to 4 hours at a time, ensuring plenty of potty breaks, mental stimulation, and companionship. • Drop-Ins / Walks: I offer flexible scheduling windows throughout the day. I arrive promptly within our agreed-upon time frame so your pet's feeding and medication schedule remains perfectly on track. Safety and respect for your property are my absolute highest priorities. I treat your home with the utmost care and maintain strict safety protocols to ensure your pets remain secure and comfortable in their own familiar environment: • Home Security & Vigilance: I strictly follow your locking preferences, arm security alarms precisely as instructed, and ensure all windows and gates are securely closed before leaving or going to sleep. I keep a low profile to ensure your home looks occupied and secure. • Escaping Prevention: I am incredibly vigilant about "door-darting." I use careful entry and exit barriers to ensure pets never have the opportunity to slip outside accidentally. During walks, dogs are always kept on secure, reliable leashes—never off-leash in unsecured areas. • Health & Behavioral Monitoring: I perform daily, subtle health checks (monitoring appetite, energy levels, and bathroom habits). Because of my professional background, I can spot the earliest signs of stress, bloat, or discomfort and act immediately. • Emergency Preparedness: I keep the contact information for your primary veterinarian and the nearest 24/7 emergency pet hospital easily accessible. If an unexpected home issue arises (like a leak or power outage), I will handle it calmly and contact you immediately.

About: I’m an experienced and devoted dog mom, foster parent, and shelter volunteer. I have hands-on experience walking, feeding, playing with, and caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and backgrounds. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and extremely safety-conscious. I’ll always treat your fur baby with the same love, care, and protection I give my own. 🐾❤️ Pet care is currently my full-time focus, easily fitting around my online classes and gym routine. Daily dog walks double as my cardio, with walks scheduled around Arizona’s heat for safety. I prefer dogs to have protective shoes for hot pavement and always prioritize their comfort, exercise, and routine. 🐾☀️ Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I live in a great neighborhood with a fully enclosed brick-walled backyard, providing a secure space for supervised outdoor play and potty breaks. My home has plenty of toys, enrichment, and love thanks to my own dog, who is friendly with other dogs. If you prefer your fur baby to remain separate from my dog, I’m happy to accommodate that as well. I have several spare rooms and a home office, so I can provide your pet with their own safe, comfortable, quiet space while still giving them plenty of individual attention and companionship. I will always follow your pet’s routines, boundaries, feeding instructions, and safety preferences so they can feel safe, loved, and right at home. 🐾❤️

About: Hi fellow furbaby owners! I’d love to come walk your dog rain or shine! or snow. My favorite activity is a long walk with my 2.5 y/o pitbull Rosie! I may look tiny but i’ve compensated to 4 miles in 1 hour! So if that sounds like a good deal to you please send me a message! I have my own dog but i’m currently unemployed so I have a lot of free time on my hands! I’d love to spend it outdoors and with animals!! To ensure a safe return I take caution while on walks making sure to have a firm grasp on all leashes without gloves, and use whichever leash is provided by family! I never walk on unpaved or car used roads (strictly sidewalk) I provide poop bags, doggy treats, water and more!

I can’t say enough good things about my dog sitter. She is truly compassionate, loving, and caring with my two Frenchies. From the moment she arrives, it’s clear she adores them—and they adore her right back. She takes such great care of them: she plays with them, keeps them happy and engaged, and stays on top of all their needs. My dogs are energetic and full of personality, and she handles them with patience and genuine affection. She even spoils them a bit (in the best way), which they absolutely love. I regularly get thoughtful updates and photos showing how well they’re doing, and it gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re safe, content, and thoroughly looked after. She’s reliable, warm, and just a wonderful person. I honestly don’t know what I would do without her. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dogs like family, she’s the one.

Bella has been watching my puppy twice a day since he was 8 weeks old for 2 months now. She has always been on time, shown great care, and has done a phenomenal job taking care of my dog while I’ve been at work. She has been extremely trustworthy, responsive, and always sends pictures with every visit. She’s an excellent sitter who I’d recommend to anyone.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Waddell

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Waddell is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 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 October 2026, there are 4,649 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Waddell. 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Waddell choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Waddell with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Waddell. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections

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 , 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.
