“This is the second time we’ve used Laura to drop in on our 2 kitties and she is FANTASTIC. Our cats have warmed up to her so much! Chompy - our shy one - always comes out to say hi to Laura and will interact and play when she’s there (she normally never comes out from under the bed when we have people over). Laura is attentive, caring and such an animal lover - it truly shows!!!”
About: I love spending time with pets, even though I don't currently have one of my own! I have been caring for dogs and cats for friends and family for years, and nothing beats having a furry companion around. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so your pet will get plenty of attention, walks, and company throughout the day. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am available weekdays and weekends to check in on your pet, take them for walks, or bring them over to keep me company as I work. I’m currently available to care for well behaved pets in my home on weekends and weekdays. I live in a townhome with stairs and my neighborhood has several green spaces for pets to run around.
About: I have been pet sitting on and off for the past 20 years. I do have two cats but I can separate them away from pet. I am good with all types of different pets. I am home during the day and so I will be able to spend a lot of time with your pet. I have time to walk and play with dogs and spend time with cats. I have a large yard just outside my home where the pet can play. I live in a quiet area so the animals will not be disturbed.
“Megan did an excellent job taking care of the dogs. They were calm and happy when we returned. Megan was also very good natured about our changes in travel plans and about helping with watering outdoor plants.”
“Ruth was amazing with my two cats! She was extremely communicative and reliable. I looked forward to the updates that she would send with pictures of both of them. The kitties loved her! I will definitely rebook with her in the future!”
“Ashley is soo wonderful to Mylo. She makes sure he gets plenty of attention while we’re gone. He doesn’t curl up with just anyone on the sofa — so very high praise! 😻 Thanks again, appreciate you!!”
“Jennifer was very conscientious about making certain my cat was well taken care of and that things were left the way they were when she came. She graciously took care of my plants and they too did well under her care! Jennifer was communicative with me about her schedule, kept me well informed about how each visit went, and reached out to me when she had a question. While my cat was slow to warm up to her I know she was in good hands!”
“Heather took great care of my cat while I was gone. She also was very responsive and helped me add a day I forgot to book last minute. I will certainly be requesting her services again in the future!”
“Katie was excellent. We had a few miscommunications about our scheduling and she was gracious, quick, and flexible. She was extra conscious of checking in and messaging us about our pets which we really appreciated.”
About: I grew up with a dog and have always loved pets and animals of all kinds! When I used to stay with my sister, I would watch her two dogs and take them on walks regularly. I have also watched pets (including dogs, cats, chickens, turkeys, gerbils, etc.) for friends over the years. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule! I finished my doctorate program in acupuncture, moved to Colorado at the start of this year, got my license and I’m currently looking for a job in my field. I do watch my nephews every Thursday and Friday but the rest of the week I have a lot of availability. I’m happy to feed, walk, and play with your pet. I have a cat of my own and I know the importance of taking good care of our furry friends! I love both dogs and cats and would be happy to help with either. Detailed instructions and clear communication for care is appreciated.
“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.”
About: I was the primary caregiver to my childhood dog (who I considered my best friend) growing up from age 5 to age 20. I've been the primary babysitter including overnight stays for my sister's German shepherd since he was a puppy until now well into adulthood. My husband is allergic so I'm not able to own my own animals despite how much I LOVE them, so I'm looking to get my animal fix by helping other people take care of their animals during the day when they're busy and at work 🥰 I've found myself with a lot of free time during weekdays and would love to use that time to help people take care of their pets and take them on walks, while also getting more quality time myself with cute animals!! I am a responsible and experienced dog walker who would be happy to walk your dogs around their own neighborhood where they're comfortable, or bring them somewhere new near my dog friendly neighborhood in olde town Arvada!
“My husband and were in Denver foe some music at Red Rocks, hiking, museum lurking, etc. we brought our two older dogs who quickly revealed were not into hiking Our VRBO owner recommended Rover and we luckily found Debra ! She made friends easily with our reserved older pups and gave us a great sense of security leaving our pups in her care! She kept us updated with photos which was very reassuring. We were extremely pleased and will definitely use Debra again and again and ….. thank you so very much !”
“Laura was awesome during check-ins with my 3 cats, and very responsive with detailed updates and pictures of their time together. They seemed happy and content when we got home and I would book her again. Thank you Laura!”

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!
Anna always goes above and beyond. From being able to accommodate last minute appointments to handling anything big or small that might unexpectedly happen with ease, she has provided amazing care for our cats over the years and I would highly recommend her to anyone. We appreciate her communication and regular updates she provides along the way as well!
Jessica is the best! She’s our first choice for a Rover whenever we leave town. She is very attentive, caring, and communicative. We have two cats and she always takes the time to move boxes and toys around the house to keep them stimulated while we’re gone. We’ll of course use her again.
Taya was absolutely fabulous - she provided detailed written overviews of how each visit went, shared photos, and went above and beyond with little things like bringing in packages and taking the cat litter to the outside dumpster. Thank you, Taya! We and Korra hope to have you back!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Arvada on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 13,666 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Arvada. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
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. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Arvada. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
