About: With over 20 years of having a dog by my side, caring for pups has always been second nature to me. I know the joy, energy, and love they bring into our lives, and I’m excited to share that same care and attention with your furry friend. Whether it’s a long walk, a playful outing, or simply keeping them company, I can’t wait to take your pup on their next adventure! With availability everyday after 4 p.m. on weekdays and open weekends, I’m here to give your pup the care, attention, and adventures they deserve! 🐾♥️ I will happily walk, play, and shower your pet with love and attention, making sure their tail is wagging and their heart is happy while you’re away.
“Very professional and friendly. Sent pictures and detailed report of her care of my doggies. I definitely felt like my senior doggies were in the best care with Christina!”
“Amie was a great sitter for our little one while we were away. She was willing to meet with us ahead of scheduling to go over all the details and followed all directions to a T! We look forward to booking with her again!”
“Jen helped us out in a pinch and did more than we asked- seeing what needed to be done and proactively taking care of it! I felt so good knowing she was here for our babies!!”
About: I’m new to Rover, but I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. I started dog sitting at 12, and have been doing so more officially since 2023. I don’t have a rigid schedule, so I have genuine wide availability for walks, check-ins, or longer care. I entirely love dogs and want to be friends with yours, so I’ll give them all the attention they'll let me. I’m an organized, driven, and passionate person, and I’m great with fine details. I’ll stay attuned to your pup’s specific needs, and leave your home as if I was never there! ... I grew up with dogs from a young age and been a dog lover my whole life. I became a regular pet sitter for friends/neighbors starting at 12, and I never really gave it up. Over the last few years, sitting shifted from being an occasional treat to more of a consistent job I’m passionate about. I’m thorough in my care, taking seriously a pet’s comfort as much as their safety. I don’t have a dog of my own currently, so I’m so I’m grateful for every dog I get to meet, get to know, and hopefully become pals with. I treat every dog like my own, and I treat every home with respect. I’m known to be conscientious, thorough, and organized. I’m definitely a details guy so I’m good with specifics, subtle instructions, and noticing the little stuff. I’ll do my best to get to know your pet and be attentive of their patterns and preferences. I’ll make sure to communicate and update you however much (or little) you prefer. I can be a bit of a people-pleaser and meticulous—sometimes to a fault—but that means I’m motivated to make sure everyone is satisfied! I can generally accommodate any time of day (mid-day, morning, evening) and any day needed. My schedule isn’t set/rigid and can be shifted around easily, so I’m widely available and have lots of flexibility. I can be there for regular/occasional walks or longer periods of house sitting, according to your schedule. Last-minute requests are often fine, though I can't provide any guarantee. I’m always extremely diligent and respectful in other people’s spaces. My first priority is always the safety and comfort of the animals. For dog sitting, I can easily spend most of the day with them to not disrupt their familiar routine. Ideally I want to be friends with all the dogs I meet, so I’ll work overtime to make that happen. I’m also happy to care for more sensitive animals, having experience with patience and boundaries until I can earn their trust. I’ll send any amount of updates or photos that you need, or anything else to accommodate the owner’s wishes.
“We had a fantastic experience with Ashlyn! She took such great care of our Great Dane, Shady, during her daily visits. We really appreciated how communicative she was throughout the stay, and it was so wonderful to receive photo updates of Shady each day. It gave us total peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet sitting!”
“Second time having him watch Rusty and everything went great again! He was very attentive, communicated well, and made sure Rusty was well taken care of while I was away. Really appreciate the care and would definitely book again.”
“Did a really great job with my little dog Toby. Punctual and trustworthy. Did everything I asked and would 10/10 use again. He was calm when I got home and that’s always a good sign. Thank you!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs most of my life, I’ve had dogs of numerous breeds and can deal with all sorts of dog personalities. I have a genuine love of dogs and will treat your dog like family while watching them. I have experience giving oral medication and am happy to enforce any rules you have while watching them. I know they’ll miss having you around and I’ll do everything I can to make sure they enjoy themselves while you’re gone. I’m not currently working, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I’m currently have one dog and we go for daily hour-long walks where she has plenty of time to sniff and get her energy out, because the walk is for her benefit. I am a very respectful person and will follow your guidelines for your house and your dog. I have a fenced yard for dogs to play. My dog is the queen of our house, she gets to play and run around, but also likes to nap throughout the day.
About: I love to walk and run with dogs! I also like hosting or checking in on cats! I am great at connecting with animals and making sure that their needs are being met. I have spent most of my life around animals and recently lost my cat. I am hoping to share some love with your pet! I work full time and I am available on weekends to host dogs. Cats I can host any time and play after work! I'm free in the evenings for walks and check ins. I have an apartment that is clean and safe for pets. I do not have a yard, but my place is set up for cats with a scratching post and toys!
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, proud dog mom, and definitely the person who notices the dog before the people. 😂 I’m active and genuinely love walking, so when your dog wants to MOVE, I’m happily along for the ride. I bring calm, responsible energy and I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes—especially the big ones! I’ll follow your routines, respect boundaries, pay attention to the details, and keep you updated. Most importantly, I meet pets where they are. Every animal has their own personality, quirks and favorite things, and I want yours to feel safe, loved, and comfortable being their weird lil’ self with me. 🐾 I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care throughout the week. I work from home several days a week and am available evenings and weekends as well. I’m active by nature, so fitting in walks, playtime and plenty of attention is already part of my routine. Safety always comes first, especially on walks. My own pup is reactive, so I understand how important it is to pay attention to a dog’s body language, surroundings and individual comfort level. I’m mindful of other dogs, people and potential triggers, and I’m happy to follow whatever routines or boundaries help your pet feel secure. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and respect both your pet’s space and yours. I want your pet to have a safe, comfortable experience—not just be “taken care of.” And of course, you’ll get plenty of updates and pictures along the way!

About: I decided long ago I'll never live without a dog in my life. I'll treat your dogs as my own while they are in my care. Sadly, my two big dogs passed away this past year and we miss them terribly. I take special care of senior dogs, giving them extra love. I've also been teaching those close to me how to train dogs. There's no reason to gate keep that knowledge. So not only can I train your dogs, but I can also teach you everything I know. We begin our day with cuddles and stretches. I work from home and enjoy a half acre, fenced in back yard in Lakewood. We walk the neighborhood, as well as Crown Hill and Sloans Lake. I have a small home with a huge yard. My little dog lost her two big brothers this past year and we're looking forward to hosting your dog/s to come play and cuddle. She's a typical little dog who barks at you ~~ then cuddles you.
“We had such a great experience with Noah and would absolutely book him again. Our two cats are a little extra and have very specific routines, and he handled it all with ease. He took the time to get to know their personalities and quirks, and it really showed. We came home to two happy, relaxed cats, which is saying a lot. Noah kept us updated with messages and photos, which made being away so much easier. If your pets have big personalities and a few preferences, he’s a great choice.

“Ava has been such a big help when we had to leave town for family emergency. My dog warmed up to her right away and he usually takes a minute. I can tell she didn’t just come by to let him out and feed him for a drop in, she played with him and made him feel loved which I really appreciate! She even volunteered to poop scoop in the yard what a rockstar”
About: I've taken care of all sorts of animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, small pets, and livestock. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, exercise, and care for their pets while they're away. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I'm a college student home for the summer with a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. I'm able to work with your pet's routine.

Bethany helped us out tremendously, we were in CO for our daughter‘s wedding and we knew that it was going to be a really long day for our dogs. Bethany came over and let them out and gave them their dinner which took.some stress off of me. Bethany always text me right back when I sent her a question. This was my first time using Rover and I’m sure it will not be my last. Thanks so much Bethany!
Incredible service from Melissa! An extra ⭐️ for the very cute pics of our sweet furry friends! She was very punctual and respectful of the house and our pets, we communicate easily and I can tell our pets loved her since our very shy dog was willing to eat with her. She let us know promptly about changing situations at home and was proactive and helpful. Will definitely book with Melissa again!

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 Arvada 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.
