“Haley is wonderful! She is always prompt, reliable, and fantastic at communicating. We loved getting the sweet photo updates during her visits, and our dogs were immediately comfortable around her. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Abigail is awesome, probably the best sitter I’ve ever come across. Always providing detailed notes of my fur baby and their time together. Puts me at complete ease. I would trust her with my first born child👌”
“Ruth took us on last minute and was so gracious. She was amazing to work with and took great care of our dog. We are so thankful for her and would love to have her come again.”
“Grace was absolutely wonderful with my cat, Bowie! She was incredibly affectionate and attentive, making sure he felt loved and comfortable the entire time I was away. Grace did such a fantastic job that I could travel with total peace of mind. I highly recommend her!”
“Jennifer was so kind to our pup! She was incredible with communication and super diligent with our dog’s care. I would 100/10 recommend her to anyone. She was so sweet and a pleasure to deal with. I will definitely be a repeat client in the future!”
“Sheryl took great care of our dog and handle all of his quirks really well :) She made sure he had plenty of walks and was entertained while we were out of town. We plan to use Sheryl again in the future.”
“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.”
“Laura is the best! We are thankful to have found someone that gives our kitty Smokey the attention he deserves/demands. We are very happy with her responsiveness and report cards and would use again and recommend to a friend.”
“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!”
“Sara was great! She was very reliable and responded to all of our questions quickly. It was our first time using a pet sitting service but it was clear we left our 3 cats in great hands. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
About: I have 38 years of experience caring for pets of all kinds, including dogs, cats, and kittens. My experience includes caring for multiple animals during extended house stays, administering medications, bathing dogs and kittens, and providing attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s needs and personality. I’m also certified in Dog & Cat First Aid and CPR, so you can feel confident knowing your pets are in capable and caring hands. I treat every animal like they’re my own and take pride in making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Before and after work visits. On days when I am not working my other job I am happy to visit mid day as well. Regular 30 min visits unless otherwise booked. Dogs will get outdoor time which will be on a case to case basis. My pets are spoiled. They get so many snuggles, lots of play time, they are papered with getting brushed and treats every night. Their litters are kept clean and I even have a cat that likes to hydrate in the shower multiple times a day.
“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!”
“I booked with Rachel to come check in on my cat while I was out of town back in July (I forgot to leave a review back then). Everything went smoothly, so much that I reached out to rebook her for my recent trip at the end of September. Rachel is on top of it all: she is punctual, responsive in messages and always provides pics when checking in with Leia 😻 will surely consider her our repeating visitor if she’s available for my next trips.”
About: Mostly all my experience is caring my pets, and friends/family. I am very in tune with my pets and other pets, sensing friendly or unfriendly pets. I'm currently retired and seeking to add 3-4 dog walking sessions per week. I will be available late mornings 10-1pm and late afternoons 4-7pm, Monday - Friday. I currently walk my 8 year old pet, several times daily, leashed around my neighborhood. He is friendly, yet cautious with other dogs. I am respectful with other dog walkers and dogs.
“We had a great experience with our cat sitter while we were away for a couple of days. She took amazing care of our 4 cats and even looked after our gecko to make sure he was fed. I was rushing to the airport and completely forgot to check the dry food dispenser, and she handled it without any issue and just asked where the food was so she could refill it. I’m extremely grateful for her help and attention to detail. It made traveling much less stressful knowing our pets were in good hands.”
“Rachel did a great job caring for my cat, rabbit, and gecko! She sent updates and pictures every day, gave each pet lots of attention, and was able to wrangle my gecko back into his tank after an escape attempt. Would absolutely work with her again!”

Darian is amazing! She looked after our two cats, fed and watered them. Our cats are usually shy around people but they both came out for Darian, it just shows she has a special way with animals. She went above and beyond and made an extra trip over to feed them when their auto feeder stopped working and was very communicative through the entire booking. We highly recommend her!
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.
Megan was excellent. You can tell she loves cats. I don’t like leaving my babies but when I met her I knew she was a cat lover. I have never had anyone that I didn’t know take care of them before. I truly felt comfortable and all was well when we got home. I would highly recommend Megan.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Arvada is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $32 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 October 2026, there are 13,577 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 .
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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
