“Christine was absolutely fantastic, went above & beyond my expectations! This was my first time using Rover or any pet sitter I didn’t know. She came to meet my pups twice before we went out of town to be sure they were familiar with her. They both get pretty excited around people and can be a bit much, but Christine was calm and loving from the minute she walked in. She sent photos at each visit and reassured us our fur babies were in good hands. So thankful to have found her, I will recommend her to my local friends that may need a pet sitter!”
“Thanks to Dani for making my weekend getaway a relaxing one, free from the stress of leaving my fur kids. I appreciated her daily check in’s which put me at ease knowing they were in good hands. I will definitely use Rover/Dani during my next vacation.”
“I am so happy that I found Faith! My pug took an immediate liking to her, so I knew everything would be fine. Faith is a great person to work with. We did a meet and greet yesterday and she took care of my pug today. She is very personable and just a lovely person. She was on time and took extra time to tell me about her visit. I really appreciate having met Faith, and now I know I can leave my little guy in outstanding care when I need to be away. I recommend her highly!!!! 5 stars+++++++!”
“Stevie was able to accommodate my last minute booking request, provided flexible scheduling, and took great care of my cat taking memorable photos of her. I am grateful to Stevie for watching my cat during an unexpected trip and certainly will rebook her if need be!”
About: I have been surrounded by pets my entire life having grown up with 3 dogs in the household at all times and 2 cats. My neighbors would often rely on me when I was younger to take care of their animals when they were away, and I have had several coworkers now as an adult ask the same of me. I love pets, and I often find that even the shyest pets warmup to me. I have lots of experience with all ages of animals, and with taking care of all sorts of medical needs they might have. I am also excellent at following directions. At the end of the day this is your pet, and I would love to have the honor of taking care of them while you are away. I am currently studying at asu west MWF 9-10 and 3-4, so depending on how close to campus you live, I will be able to come see your pets in between those classes! Tuesdays is just 8-11am, but Thursdays I teach science in the mornings to homeschooled kids, and then have class right after from 3-6, making me unavailable from 8-6 unfortunately. I am living with my grandma, so my house is not available for sitting, but I will always be respectful of your house and your wishes on how you like your pets to be taken care of. I am also comfortable with creating when I leave if that is something you do.
“Issy was an outstanding cat sitter for me as I took a long weekend trip to visit my son. She took great care of Petie and consistently sent updates and plenty of pictures, which I greatly appreciated! Highly recommend.”
“Mackenzie came over before our trip to make sure she understood all our cats needs. She completed all tasks every time she visited! Her scheduled was flexible and was able to come after I had packages arriving to take inside.”

“Patricia was truly amazing, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her care. She took extra time to help my dog warm up and feel safe, which meant everything to me. My pup was extremely difficult at first, but Patricia was so patient, gentle, and kind- never rushed, never discouraged. She went above and beyond by taking my dog on long walks, giving medication exactly as requested, and even working with her on training (she helped her learn to lay down!). The constant photo updates were so reassuring and showed just how much love and attention she was giving. It’s clear Patricia genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such thoughtful, capable hands. Thank you so much, Patricia — you’re incredible, and I would trust you again in a heartbeat!”
“Chuck was great at taking care of our cat Trina. She is a challenge because her past life causes her to avoid strangers. Chuck understands all that. We appreciate how neat and clean he kept everything and his photos and reports of his visits. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was taking good care of her so we could finally take a trip that was long overdue.”
“We couldn’t ask for a nicer person to watch our 3 cats. They love her visits, especially our male cat Neo. He enjoys playtime with Stephanie and will look for her after we’ve returned home. High compliments from our picky trio.”

I'm very comfortable dealing with anxious and excited doggos and have no problem taking time to build a relationship with each one. I am currently unemployed so I am able to care for pets at all times of the day and stay overnight to keep then company. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine, and any instructions provided for pets needing medication. I also spend additional time bonding with them and letting them get used to me being around even if that means keeping my distance until they work up to me. I have 0 problems handling pets with potty issues as most of the ones I watch have accidents waiting for me when I arrive!

Your dog will get lots of love and attention during their stay and will not be left alone. Because we work from home, your pet will get potty breaks and outdoor time whenever they want it. We love puppies and are happy to help with potty training. If you have been working with your dog on learning commands, we will continue that training while they stay with us. We'll update you throughout your pet's stay with pictures of what they've been doing. We look forward to making your pet a part of our family. Drop in visits will include feeding, play time, ball throwing, belly rubs, or whatever it is your pup enjoys. I work part time and have a very flexible schedule.

I will go above and beyond to ensure that your fur baby feels cherished and cared for. I am also a professional photographer so I’ll be able to capture some incredible memories with your fur babies if you let me! I am currently working part time. My bartending shifts are on average no more than 6hrs, 2-3 days a week. I am also a professional photographer with sessions only lasting 1-2 hrs so I have plenty of time to give the right attention to your fur babies. I decided to rent a large house with a yard for my fur babies to run around and go outside whenever they need to. I prioritize their physical health and diligently maintain their schedules, and provide them with a balanced and nutritious diet tailored to their specific dietary requirements. I understand the importance of exercise and engage them in stimulating activities to keep their bodies strong and agile. I recognize the significance of mental and emotional well-being in pets and create a safe and comfortable space for them, complete with cozy beds, engaging toys, and hiding spots for relaxation. Regular playtime and interactive sessions help stimulate their minds and prevent boredom. Whether it's puzzle toys, training sessions, or engaging in their favorite games, I actively promote mental stimulation and social interaction.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Waddell
Katelyn was a wonderful sitter for my senior dog Daisy. Not only did she treat my very defensive and scared chihuahua with so much care and kindness she also provided updates to give me peace of mind. Highly recommend her for anyone who needs assistance with their fur babies!!
I am extremely pleased with Beth and the care she provided for my two dogs while I was at work. From the very beginning she was caring, thoughtful, and detailed in everything she did. She didn’t just watch them—she genuinely provided them with love, attention, and the kind of careful, consistent care that makes a real difference. Communication was excellent the entire time. She kept me updated, answered questions promptly, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. I always felt confident that my dogs were in good hands. Beth is a kind, caring, and truly genuine person. She is responsible, reliable, and clearly dedicated to what she does. I don’t know what I would do without her, and I will absolutely be using her services again. If you’re looking for an amazing person to watch your dogs, please choose Beth. She is highly recommended.
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.
Laura is awesome! She is super communicative, kind and so attentive to our fur babies and their needs. Loved the photos she sent, too. Laura was flexible and very understanding throughout our booking. When we were unreachable during our trip, she coordinated with our neighbors as needed. Highly recommend and so grateful for her services!
We are so thankful that my co-worker referred me to Kelsey! She was amazing with the dogs and took great photos! If we could give her more stars we would. We had a small situation at our house while we were out of state, and she went the full extra mile to help as she could. Again, so thankful we hired her! This is the Rover you want.
Chance responded to my same day request fast! He was super helpful, on time and the pics of my Diego showed he was truly happy Chance was there with him. I was able to have a nice date night out and not worry about my little worry wart at home. Highly recommend Chance!

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.

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 .
