“Jessica was very communicative and responded right away to any questions or requests. She went above and beyond, sweeping up the litterbox area (my cats are so messy) and bringing in my packages. I would gladly trust her with my babies again”
“Ashley is wonderful, she has taken care of my cats a few times, including a long 2.5 week trip, and she is by far the best sitter I’ve used through Rover. She really cares about my pets, cuddling and playing with them. She is really communicative and responsive. Highly recommend!!”
“Taya is great and more than anything, patient. We have a first class, extra loud, super anxiety barker (GSD/pit) and Taya came back three days in a row to take care of her. I can’t speak highly enough of her patient, flexible, and kind demeanor. Should she wish to brave it, we will definitely ask her to drop-in again.”
“Darla took such wonderful care of our cat while we were out of town for a week. We so appreciate the daily pictures and updates! Would highly recommend and will definitely book with Darla again!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and caring for them is something I’m very comfortable and confident in. My family has always had dogs, so I’ve had hands-on experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities. In addition to owning my own dog in the past, I’ve fostered dogs and helped raise two puppies, giving me experience with training basics, routines, and all the energy and patience that puppies require! I’ve also regularly dog-sat for friends and family by caring for dogs in their homes and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m very comfortable walking dogs and making sure each walk is safe and enjoyable. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel relaxed and confident while they’re apart. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m home most days of the week due to my most of my classes being online. I’m generally available on most weekends, with plenty of time to give dogs attention, walks, and care. I know how important it is to trust someone with your dog and your home, and I don’t take that lightly. I follow instructions closely, make sure everything is secure, and focus on keeping your dog comfortable and happy. My goal is for you to feel relaxed knowing your dog is being well cared for.
About: I’ve always had a soft spot for dogs at both ends of the age spectrum. I love the curiosity and energy of puppies, as well as the calm confidence of senior dogs who know themselves and deserve to move at their own pace and enjoy the little things. When I walk dogs, I focus on their individual needs rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. Some dogs thrive on exercise and adventure, while others prefer a slower pace, taking time to explore every scent along the way. I’m comfortable reinforcing basic puppy manners, sticking to established routines, and offering the extra patience and care that senior dogs often need. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. My goal is to make every walk safe, enjoyable, and stress-free for both you and your pup. Hanging out with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for in my weekly routine. I work a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to dog walks, doggy day care, or drop-in visits. As a longtime pet owner, caring for animals is a natural part of my day. I understand the importance of exercise and routine. Whether it’s a quick walk, a puppy who needs to burn off some energy, or a senior dog who enjoys a slower stroll and extra attention, I make sure each visit is focused on providing safe, attentive, and personalized care. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and a calm, cozy home environment that dogs tend to settle into quickly. My space is filled with natural light and lots of houseplants, giving it a relaxed, peaceful feel that’s perfect for pups who enjoy lounging, exploring, or just being part of the household.
“This is my first time using rover and I was very nervous to leave my cats for two whole weeks, but Leslie made it all so much easier for me! She did such an amazing job keeping me updated every day and sent the best pictures. My worries quickly went away once I saw how good she is at caring for animals. I would recommend her to anyone!”
About: Over the last 15 years, I’ve made countless memories watching and caring for family and friend’s dogs and other pets. Experience in day care, overnights, and week long stays at clients homes to care for their furry companions. I’m comfortable with all types of dogs from any age range. Each dog will receive individualized and personalized attention that fits their lifestyle and personality. I pride myself in being extremely reliable, detail-oriented, and consistent communication so you feel comfortable and updated. I’m currently in between jobs so I am available any day of the week at any time. My weekends are usually always open as well. In a clients home, I ensure their normal routine is followed precisely. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, given quality walks as requested, and plenty of attention and playtime. I also make sure the home is treated with respect and care, with additional clean up as needed. Updates/photos will be sent so you can feel secure and informed while being away.
“Jessica was wonderful with my cats! She clearly loves animals and is a caring and dedicated sitter. My boy cat especially loved being able to still have playtime while I was traveling!”
About: I have always loved dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and really tuned in to each dog’s personality, energy, and needs. I’m comfortable adjusting walks, pace, and attention based on what’s best for the pups. I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for, and treat them like they’re my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I make time specifically for walks, drop-ins, and quality attention. I have a flexible schedule, so I can be consistent and reliable with timing. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine so they feel comfortable and safe. I pay attention to details like feeding schedules, leash safety, and making sure doors, gates, and harnesses are always properly secured. I am very respectful of your space and keep things clean while I’m there. I also give regular updates, so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a safe, low-stress environment where your pet feels cared for and you feel confident they’re in good hands.
About: I treat every animal like family, offering personalized care, endless playtime, and genuine love. Your furry friend will feel right at home with me, ensuring they're happy and well-cared for! I currently work full time 6 to 5 p.m on weekdays and am looking for furry friends to give me company when I am not working!!! I care for my pets with all my love, spoiling them to the fullest! I am also a clean freak so my home is always very safe and clean! Great for puppies!
“Janelle was wonderful with my dog. Great daily updates and really nice photos! She was very kind and professional and I hope to have her sit again! Thank you, Janelle!”
“Erik was so great and patient with my senior pup. His affection for animals really shows and she adored him. Great communication with fun and detailed reports from each visit. We will definitely be using his services again and I highly recommend him.”
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Arvada is $20

We have been trusting Bethany to take great care of our fur babies for over 3 years and she has always done such a great job! Our dog and cats love her, and she is very accommodating with their special dietary needs. She is a lifesaver every time we need to head out of town!!
I had Michelle drop in on my senior Shih Tzu for two weeks. She sent us lots of pictures everyday and did a great job taking care of him. He really loved her and he’s not easy to win over! I would recommend Michelle to anyone looking for someone caring and communicative to care for their pet. I’ll definitely be booking with her again 😊
Anna was great with my high energy and nervous shepherd mix. He can bark and jump on new people but Anna was super receptive to my instructions to prevent this and was able to play with him, give him water, treats, and a potty break within 30 minutes. She was very responsive to my messages as well. She has lots of experience with foster dogs which is great for my high maintenance big boy.
Debra was great. Lots of communication and updates during the drop in. It’s always scary for me to leave my baby (yes, crazy dog mom status) with someone, but Debra made me feel at ease. We will definitely be using her again when I get over my fear of boarding.
Marissa has been my pups’ go-to sitter for several months now. She is incredibly attentive and they just love her - they are SO happy during her visits and it’s clear in the photos and vids she shares. Recently, one of my dogs needed administration of some meds as well as some extra attention with a cone of shame. Marissa handled everything wonderfully and I felt good knowing he was in trusted hands. BOOK HER, if you can!
Taya was truly one of our best Rover experiences! We needed a new rover on short notice to care for our dog while we attended an out of state funeral. Taya happily came by the next day for a meet and greet and was very happy to accommodate us. She clearly loves all animals and was one of the best communicators, leaving great notes for us and even better pictures. I would happily recommend Taya to anyone!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Arvada stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 Arvada with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
