About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and the care and attention I give every pet! As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your furry family member is in good hands. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, exploring new places, or simply taking their time to sniff around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated so you always have peace of mind🤎 I work Tuesday through Friday and occasionally Saturdays, so I’m available Sundays and Mondays! I love staying active and spending time outdoors, and I’d love to spend my free time caring for your furry friends! I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions and provide attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. My goal is to ensure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Very dependable and will continue to use her. I don’t let many people take care of my pets and I’m most comfortable with her watching them and taking good care of them.”
About: I have been pet sitting for about 5 years and have loved dogs of my own for much longer. Pets are part of our families, and deserve to be cared for with love, gentleness, and reliability! My ultimate goal is to make sure you and your pets feel comfortable and happy while you're away. To achieve this goal I meet all pets and their families before booking, follow instructions carefully, and send daily updates with pictures 📸 I have an open schedule 7 days a week to care for your pet! When I house sit, I'm happy to take your pup(s) on adventures to parks and trails around Boulder, or along their regular route to burn some energy and breathe some fresh air. I'm also no stranger to playing tug of war at home or in the yard, or lounging together to watch a movie! I like to cuddle and play with animals to make them feel loved! I'm always attentive to their potty schedule and make sure they're rewarded often with treats :) I also always leave fresh water and a light on for them if I need to step away.
About: I’ve never had a time in my life I haven’t been around dogs! In my early 20s, I would dog sit for coworkers or family friends all of the time, which was easier than dealing with 5 dogs we had at home! As a current dog dad, I understand the importance of checking in on your best friend (additional family member really) and getting them a daily walk. My staffy really makes sure I know. As a realtor, I typically work from home so I’m available most late mornings, afternoon and evenings to help you when you are not home! Because my staffy loves to get into trouble and eat everything, I keep her in eyesight at all times. Walking while keeping an eye the doggy is second nature now. I’m always on the look out for environmental hazards or potential problems to avoid.
About: What sets me apart is my background in dog grooming. I recently completed a grooming course in Peru and now work as a pet bather at PetSmart, on my way to becoming a certified dog stylist. Because I groom dogs, I’ve learned to notice the small signs — like tense body language or lip licking — that show a dog is getting anxious, so I can step in and calm them down before it becomes a bigger issue. On top of that, I live with my own senior chihuahua, a young high-energy Shepherd mix, and a cat, so I’m already used to handling very different personalities and energy levels day to day. I work full-time but I’m off at 5pm every day, which gives me time for afternoon walks, drop-in visits, and feedings right after work. I also have 2 days off during the week where I’m available any time of day for longer visits or sits. And since I’m a night owl, I’m happy to help pet parents who get home late — I can handle late-night walks or check-ins when other sitters might not be available. I’m also able to keep a consistent daily schedule, so your pet can count on the same routine they’re used to. With my own dogs, I walk them three times a day—morning, afternoon, and evening—for at least 15 minutes to keep them active and happy. If time allows, I enjoy taking longer walks depending on the dog’s energy level and needs. During the week, I also like taking them to a park or somewhere new so they can explore and smell new things for enrichment. At home, I always make time to play with them and keep them mentally stimulated. For my cat, I have a cat tree and several scratching posts around the house so they stay comfortable and entertained. When caring for a client’s pet, I make sure to follow their routine, feeding schedule, and any specific instructions so their pet feels safe and comfortable.
About: I grew up with dogs and currently have a dog and other pets of my own, giving me lifelong experience caring for animals. I have also pet sat for neighbors and other members of my community, providing reliable and attentive care. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to large breeds, and can adapt to each pet's unique personality and routine. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, or providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My experience as both a pet owner and pet sitter helps me ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I currently work a part-time job, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide quality care for pets. I am able to fit pet care into my daily routine by scheduling walks, feeding times, play sessions, and check-ins throughout the day. I am committed to making sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while their owners are away. My flexible availability allows me to adapt to different pets' routines and care requirements. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while maintaining a clean and safe environment. I also enjoy keeping owners updated while they are away by sending photos and updates of their wonderful pets throughout their trip. I know how reassuring it can be to see that your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I always treat both pets and clients' homes with respect and care, so owners can have peace of mind while they're away.
“Michelle is amazing. I was very hesitant about the whole process of having someone coming to see Blue, being it was my first experience. I am a very particular person in what I want and expect and Michelle couldn’t have done a better job in my eyes. Very professional, nice, caring, trust worthy, knowledgeable person. Good communication with you and what to expect, keeps you updated with text and pics. Thank you Michelle.”
“Jade is patient with my very timid boxer, and we hope this is the start of a beautiful new relationship. She just did a lunch drop-in today and sent us several pics, which helped us feel at ease and very hopeful that our girl will have a new bestie in Jade. ♥️”
About: I absolutely love animals and will make sure your pup is well taken care of and send you updates as frequently as you would like I am available at all times as I work from home and my job is very flexible! Please let me know your needs as I am more than happy to help! Your pet will be treated as if they are my own. Loved and fully cared for and completely attended to! Any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask and I am also flexible with times and availability
“Amy looked after our home and senior cat while we were away for a week. She did an exceptional job, was attentive to our cat’s needs, and was really easy to communicate with. Her experience and careful attention to detail really shone through and we would definitely book with her again when we’re away!”
About: I’ve taken care of different types of animals since I was a child. (I’m 57) My friends know how much love I have for animals, and often the first person my friends think about when they need someone to take care of their pets. I have extensive experience with senior and special needs animals who require unique care. I enjoy playing and walking with dogs and letting them experience their neighborhood surroundings and smells. Cats are fairly self sufficient, but the superior care I provide will give them plenty of attention and love. I am honored to be entrusted with the care of such an important part of the family as your pets. Your fur babies are safe with me. I promise to deliver superior care to meet your specific needs. I also promise to take care of your pet as I would my own. I have a little dog myself. Her name is Evie. She gets along with everyone. She’s seven and part Chihuahua Patterdale Terrier. I bring her with me most of the time, but will accommodate your needs. She doesn’t have to come, but I’d like it if she can. I’m a retired teacher so there is plenty time for me to spend with grandkids and my own pets. I am often out and about, so caring for your fur baby can be easily incorporated into to my day. I’m also available for overnight, especially with babies that are apprehensive, nervous or special needs. My entire time will be devoted to making your pet happy. Your pet’s needs take priority. It is genuinely fun for me to spend time with animals outside my own home. I love all animals and will work with you to design the perfect care routine specific to your pet’s needs.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. My last fur baby lived a long happy life but now I’m an empty nester. I would love to care for your fur baby and shower them with love and affection and any special care they might need. I work from home so it fits perfectly. Time and attention will be in abundance here for your pet(s). Rest assured they will be happy in this home. I treat all my fur babies like they are my own children. Never out of sight always on my mind. I have a small back yard and love walks for exercise.
About: Hi, I’m Laura! I’m a lifelong animal lover. I love bonding with and caring for dog and cats. I am incredibly detail-oriented and communicative, so I’ll keep a watchful eye on your pets & keep you informed on how everything is going. Currently I have open availability for Thanksgiving and the weekend following (November 26-29). If you’re looking for pet care outside of that window, don’t be afraid to reach out- I may be able to work something out. I have experience caring for a wide array of animals. In addition, I am very quick on my feet and pay attention to detail. I will treat your pets like my family.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Addison
Kimberly is wonderful to work with, as a two veterinarian household I get nervous leaving our three old gals for the weekend with someone new but she made it so stress free. She made sure our oldest got her meds, even took time to feed our fish. My dogs loved her and she sent cute little photo updates. She was always timely and gave them ample time to potty in the yard and relax out of their kennels. Will be reaching out to book with her again, that peace of mind is priceless.
Out of all the dog sitters I’ve had, my fur babies love Courtney the most. They were very welcoming towards her. They even allowed her to walk them, (which never happens with anyone, even my family members.) My dogs trust her, which makes me trust and appreciate her even more. I highly highly recommend Courtney’s services. You will not be disappointed.
Jordan was so sweet and great with my older whippets. I have been nervous to leave them and go take a vacation. After seeing the boys instantly feel comfortable with Jordan during a meet and greet, it really put my mind at ease. She was punctual and gave updates with pictures included. She paid close attention to their needs and gave them plenty of attention and cuddles. Just with her being present, they seemed to be at ease. I am so grateful and I would recommend her to anyone. I hope to rebook with her again soon!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Addison is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $7 and $33 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 November 2026, there are 8,423 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Addison. 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 Addison 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
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.
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 Addison 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 Addison. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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 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.
