About: I’m very well around with pets, not only am I good in pet care I’m also a dog groomer (8 years) so I know a lot about animals and what they need. I’m doing this full time so I have so much time on my hands to spend with your furry babies. Plus I love walking and doing play dates or just going on a hike. I have two wonderful playful dogs who would love to make friends and join us on our hiking or long walk days. Even to just come to the dog park with us.
“Isiah was great. He has a wonderful knowledge of dogs. He brings his own training toys and works with them on walks. He sent lots of photos which I love. The house was clean and nice when we returned home. He is a must hire. He was very prompt at returning text.”
About: Dogs have been part of my life for years. I started pet sitting in high school and have continued through young adulthood, caring for around 50 dogs in my community. Families rely on me because I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each dog’s routine and personality. I make sure pets feel comfortable, exercised, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a recent grad, with a full time work schedule, I’m able to provide walks, playtime, check-ins, and extended stays to make sure your pet gets consistent attention and care. My home has a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time if boarding is needed. I do live with roommates, so I'm unable to offer boarding at my person home. When possible, I prefer caring for pets in their own homes where they feel most comfortable and secure. I focus on maintaining routines, minimizing stress, and creating a safe, calm environment.
“Unbelievably wonderful to work with, would recommend him to anyone, was very attentive to our fifteen and a half year old dog did a great job, giving him his medications and taking him on a walk.In addition, took excellent care of the house plants and my various fish.”
About: My name is Cady and I enjoy dog sitting for friends, neighbors and family. I've been dog sitting on and off for around 10 years. I've also worked professionally has an Animal caretaker for a local pet resort, so I know the routine of dog walking, taking care of pets who stay overnight, giving medications, feeding, and playing and showing love to the each and every animal. I also have the skills and experience to care for dogs of all sizes , age and health. My availability is flexible as of now so, I'm able to spend as much time as possible with each and every dog that I have the opportunity to care for. I love spending time outdoors as well, so rest assured that your pup will get some sun and much needed exercise! I have open availability 5 days out of the week. I also have my own means of transportation. I am open to housesitting as well! I make sure you follow your daily routine with your companion as well as hold space for them to explore and just feel loved and seen.
“Cheryl was absolutely amazing! We have 3 very different babies from a puppy to a senior to a rescue and she handled them all each very special. We could not have asked for a better sitting experience, we will be inviting her back! We came home to an absolutely clean house and happy pups! Thanks Cheryl!”
“Will was fantastic with our Golden Retriever, Moose! He kept us updated throughout the stay with photos, videos, and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Moose was happy, well cared for, and clearly thriving the entire time. Will was communicative, reliable, and took great care of both our dog and our home. We would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him!”
About: Hi, Im Ian (: I am dedicated to giving your pets the best care in the valley— in their (your) home! Arrangements may be arranged for one, in-home boarding case at a time! We've always been the go-to for friends and family's fur babies, and now we're bringing that same heartfelt attention to Phoenix families like yours. I specialize in overnight care but provide drop-ins, walks, and other comforts to your fuzzy fam. Moving, or unsure of a long road trip with Roscoe? Give me a call! I also can provide unlimited mileage car/air transport for snowbirds and movers. I treat every pet as part of our own family. Ready for tailored care in the Phoenix metro? We can't wait to meet your crew! 🦊🐾 I’m passionate about personalized pet care in The Valley. If you’re satisfied, I’ll work for you to build an ongoing relationship after we’ve connected! I’ve just left the airline industry and am home or available to be home at almost all times! My schedule is open & being prompt and available for pet owners is paramount. At our home, we have a secure, locked, and walled yard. We have three kiddos of our own— two Boston terriers and one Shiba Inu who absolutely LOVE meeting a friend!
About: I am the go-to sitter for all my friends and families pet sitting needs, or when they need an extra pair of hands for a fur baby emergency. I have administered medications. I know my way around a dietary routine and love when fur babies have their own preferences 🥰. I have fostered animals of all ages, and personalities. I have cared for cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, and even fish most of my life. . When I am not volunteering as a docent or for our local community garden I have an open schedule this season to be apart of the best fur babies lives. I have experience with long term overnight pet care when pet owners travel or need to be out of town for work for extended periods of time. The longest I have cared for pets in their own homes, overnight has been for a month. I am flexible in services provided according to what pets and their people's needs for walks, activities, and feeding schedules are.
About: What sets me apart is that I’ve had hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs with different needs and sizes. When I was younger, I helped my mom care for her boss’s four dogs, and once I got my driver’s license, I took over caring for them on my own. That included two small dogs and two extra-large dogs, so I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes. I’m dependable, patient, and make sure every dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m confident following feeding schedules, giving medications if instructions are provided, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits very well into my routine right now. I recently graduated from cosmetology school and am currently studying for my state licensing exam, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for pets. Because I’m home most of the day, I can provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to work around each pet’s normal routine to make sure they feel comfortable while their owner is away. My top priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, potty breaks, walks, medications (if needed), and routines to keep things as normal as possible. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and make sure they always have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a clean environment. I also keep doors and gates securely closed, avoid unsafe situations, and send regular photo and text updates so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. I treat every pet and home with the same respect and care I would my own.

FAQs for House Sitting - Wintersburg
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 437 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wintersburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Wintersburg walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Wintersburg maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Wintersburg 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
