“Marcus was great with my German Shepherd, Dax. He came out for a meet and greet and spent an hour with us before booking to make sure it was a good match for all of us. He played fetch, took him for walks and otherwise played with him and to get him his needed exercise. If the need arises, we will def. be using Marcus again and would recommend his services.”
“Amber is an excellent dog sitter, communicates clearly and is very capable with large breeds. Besides being a joy to work with, we returned to a clean home with bedding washed etc. 5 stars for Amber! Thank you!”
“Everything went well. I didn't really see much of Vesta, I left right after she arrived and she left right after I returned. The house was clean, nothing was destroyed and my dogs were happy. I guess that says it all!”
“My pups can’t get enough of Regan and she loves them like her own. I always feel that my dogs and my home are completely safe and well cared for when Regan comes to stay. She’s the best!!”
“So happy we that found Stephanie on Rover. She is everything you could want in a pet sitter. She is good with animals, prompt with responses, keeps you informed regularly, house was clean when we returned, and she takes pride in what she does. We look forward to working with her again!”
About: I've always had dogs. Growing up, we had four. I've been loving, tending, and playing with dogs my entire life! I've taken care of family's dogs while they've gone on vacation too many times to count. Friends, too! I'm excited to meet your furry kid!! I am very flexible and can meet your specific needs! Any day, anytime...I can be there! Ready and willing to give lots of love and attention to your lovable doggie when you can't! I will treat your home as if it were entrusted to me by my own family. I will treat your dog as if they were my own! Lots of love, lots of attention, and we'll be in their place of comfort and safety so that they are more relaxed and happy.
“Patty just finished a few day stay with our 'gang off littles'! Just delightful. Many thanks to her from us and our three Shih Tzus. Everybody had a good time and for sure shared some laughs. THANK YOU, thank you! Look for you next time. Penny, Dave and Sheila, Mickey and Carl.”
About: Welcome to my profile. I am Lauren, a 22-year-old animal care professional with six years of experience in veterinary medicine. I hold a Fear Free Certification. Recently, I welcomed a three-month-old infant into my family, which has been a rewarding experience. I also provide pet sitting services, including dog walking, drop-in visits, and extended stays at clients' residences. I care for a wide variety of animals, ranging from reptiles and small mammals to horses, although I prefer to avoid handling spiders and snakes due to personal discomfort. Should you have any inquiries or require assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me. My schedule is flexible, as I work PRN, and I am dedicated to supporting pet owners in the care of their animals. Thank you for considering my services and trusting me with your pets. I only work PRN(as needed) at Munson Foster Family, watching animals has always been a hobby for me. I will always make time for your fur baby. I prefer to care for the Client’s animals in their own home because it helps them feel more comfortable and secure. Moving to a new environment can be stressful for pets, especially those with anxiety, so staying in their familiar space makes a big difference. I’ve seen how this approach can really soothe anxious pets and help them feel at ease.
“Heather is absolutely wonderful!! She is very caring. Izzy and Remi absolutely loved her. She has excellent communication skills, is very punctual and I swear my house was cleaner than I left it. I will definitely ask her to watch Izzy and Remi anytime I need to go away! She is very trustworthy. I highly recommend Heather to watch over your 4 legged family members. I loved the pictures, updates and videos as this was my first time leaving them.”
“Annie sent regular updates, let us know when she was leaving and that our dogs went potty right before she left… she also put the doggie channel on for them!! Definitely recommend her and will use her again for the care of our two dogs overnight!!!”
“Jordan stayed with our 2 dogs while we were on vacation for a few days. She was so kind and updated me many times with how they were doing and pictures for us to see. She even tidied up and did laundry for us which blew me away! I felt great leaving our dogs with her and would request her again! 🙂”
“This is the second time Michelle has stayed with our two pups and we came home to two happy, well-cared for pets and a spotless home. It is very nice to have a dependable sitter and sets my mind at ease while away from home!”
“Solea and Dom took amazing care of our two dogs! Our husky can be a handful because of his temperament but they handled him like champs! We had no worries that our dogs were in good hands. They also cleaned the house at the end of their stay and threw the bedding into the wash. We will be using them again in the future!”
About: I am currently in Traverse City, Michigan. I spend a lot of time between here and Phoenix. I can do last minute sits or drop ins.

Last minute sittings or walks are welcome. I will love and treat your pets as if they are my own. I have mostly done pet and house sitting through Trusted Housesitters.

I am a flight attendant with lots of time on my hands. My schedule is flexible and I can do a last minute walk or plan ahead for a long sit. I will leave my schedule as booked and open it when I get back from my flight. I am great for last minute sits or if you know ahead of time, I can usually book far in advance and work my flight schedule around you. I mostly work out of the Phoenix area and Traverse City, Michigan. If coming to your home, I ask for a detailed list of your preferences. I will follow and respect you and your pets needs. I am physically fit and love would love to walk your pup or take them for a hike if they are able. I am a flight attendant so I have had an extensive background check. I get random checked for drugs and alcohol. I am very respectful of your rules and space and I am very kind and loving to animals.
“Ashley was a perfect fit for us. She was able to come meet our stranger adverse dog before the stay. She was able to stay with our dog while we were away and kept us informed, with pictures. She was respectful of our space, our dog, and us. We look forward to using her again.”
“Excellent. She consistently sent photos of the pets to confirm that all was well and happy in the house. Texted and communicated with questions if she had any doubts about feedings and walks and anything else. Couldn't have asked for better care. Two happy pets were there awaiting my return.”
“Amanda stayed with our 2 cats and our visually impaired senior dog while we visited our daughter for the day. Our pets were immediately comfortable with Amanda. She kept in touch with texts and pictures throughout the day and didn't hesitate to contact us if she had a question. We enjoyed her comments and photos of our babies and felt she really got their unique personalities. Her soft-spoken confidence and gentle manner gave us a worry free day and a caring, loving and fun day for our fur babies. We'll definitely ask for Amanda again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 113 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Yuma. 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 Yuma 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 Yuma 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Yuma 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
