“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!!”
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.
“Jessica was great! Each day she sent nice photos and detailed reports of how our kitties were doing. She also spent time keeping them company and playing with them during the visits. I would definitely rebook with her in the future!”
“Darian was great! When our cats were really vocal near our automatic feeder, she checked in to see if that was normal, or if it was something to be concerned about - yup, they’re just loud and always trying to get extra food! But I appreciated the care. :)”
“Erin was friendly, kind, and professional when we met her for an intro visit. She sent me great pics of my kitty and sweet messages about how he was doing while I was on vacation. She really set my mind at ease!”
About: Experience in a top boarding and daycare facility, pet sitting for family, and loving my pup Rogue! Trained in senior care, medication, basic puppy training. I work from home and have great flexibility throughout the day for individual play and attention. I have a large backyard space with new turf that’s fenced in and locked for your pup to explore and relax in the sun. Currently available for drop in visits and walks only! Fenced in backyard and home with security system. My pup is a gentle and kind companion to share the space and yard alongside. Can keep your training / commands consistent and accommodate eating schedules, medication administration, etc.
About: I grew up in the country and my family bred dogs since I was very little. We have always had a house full of pups and it will always be part of my life. I treat all pups like part of the family and will provide the most excellent care for your fur babes. I work from home so am always around. I have a doggie door if your pup can use it or can let them out at any time. Can add doggies to the dog park run club if they are able. We do daily walks around the neighborhood, too. Doggies can have their own room or be crated if needed. My home has a doggie door. Closed at night. And many separate rooms if needed for more exclusive needs. I work from home so am always around and can handle more complex needs or high energy. My house also has security cameras all around and locked and blocked fences, as well as great neighbors.
“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 !”
“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!”
“Maribel was fantastic while looking after our 5 month old kitten. She sent lots of photos that showed how happy and comfortable our kitten was with Maribel. Trustworthy, friendly, and punctual. We’ll be booking Maribel again.”
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.
“Trinity was an amazing sitter for us!! She was highly communicative, on top of everything we asked and more while we were gone, and made everything go incredibly smoothly for a very long trip! Would recommend to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter!”
“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!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Arvada
Heather took great care of Willow while we were out of town! She came over twice a day and made sure Willow had everything she needed, including cuddles and playtime. Willow seemed super relaxed and content when we got back, which isn’t always the case. Thanks Heather!
Megan was wonderful! She watched our 2 kitties for 4 nights/5 days and all went great! She provided insightful reports after each visit, quick responses, communicated updates/questions as they arose, and also shared great photos after each visit. Our babies seemed happy when we got home and our house was clean.
Khaiyajc took amazing attentive care of my senior cat with twice daily visits for her medication and meals. She made sure Athena got love and treats, and sent me detailed notes filled with better pictures than I ever manage to take myself. We highly recommend her!
Casey made my first Rover experience so easy and stress-free. I needed support on short notice, and she made herself available to meet me and my pup, and provided excellent communication and care throughout. I will absolutely seek Casey’s care for Greta again in the future!
Melissa is an absolute gem! She is so kind, communicative, and reliable. Most importantly, she was so sweet and caring with my cat. She’s incredibly thoughtful with her notes, pictures, and videos with each visit. I feel so grateful to have found a sitter like her and will definitely be reaching out to her again!
Caitlyn is highly recommended. When you meet her you will see she is a very caring and responsible person. Her calm demeanor helped my skittish cat gain trust quickly and Caitlyn’s communication was excellent. Thank you Caitlyn for helping me have a worry free weekend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Arvada is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 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 13,555 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Arvada. 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.
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:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
