“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!”
“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!”
“Abigail was the best!! I was worried about doing Rover again because my last experience wasn’t great. She was accommodating and even did a meet and greet before I left. It made me feel so much safer leaving my girls in good hands. She actually spent time with my kitties which I know cats are not the most exciting animals but one of my girls loves pets and Abigail provided that. I will definitely use her again!! Also loved all the photos and feedback.”
“We were first time users of Rover who haven't left our fur babies at home before, and Jennifer made us feel so comfortable leaving them for our trip! She got to know our kitties, took care of them, and respected our home and their unique personalities. We feel much better about traveling and will be taking more trips in the future! Thank you, Jennifer!”
“Rachel was awesome! Very flexible during a long trip of ours, very communicative, and did so well with one of our animals who’s not the easiest to take care of. Would recommend Rachel to anyone! Thank you!!”
About: I grew up around animals and have been drawn to them for as long as I remember. I am a natural care giver and have been around a plethora of different pets and personality types through out my life. I work from home and have flexibility through out my day to play with your dog. I would love the opportunity to spoil another fur baby! I have a fenced in back yard and a playful, sweet mini Bernedoodle to keep your animal company. I can accommodate different needs for your fur baby, just let me know!
“Lisa is super responsible and dependable. Our pups absolutely love her as she is a kind and patient caretaker. Lisa is not a kid. She does this full time and is careful to make sure she is able to handle any special requests. I appreciate the flexibility she has shown and she follows directions precisely. Her communication is excellent- lots of photos and messages when necessary.”
“Tanya was great watching my two kitties! She was very communicative, sent pictures and videos during each check in. I really appreciated that she was confident and caring in giving eye medication to one of my cats. I highly recommend Tanya to anyone looking for a sitter.”
About: As a dedicated dog parent to two wonderful pups: Athena (8), a sweet brindle pit mix I’ve loved since 2019, and Maverick (4), an energetic Australian Shepherd/Cattle Dog mix with striking Rottweiler markings who joined our family in 2023 from a foster fail, I know firsthand that raising dogs comes with its own unique rewards and challenges. Every moment with them is completely worth it, and they've taught me so much about patience, routine, and individual care. Having used Rover as a client, I know how disappointing it feels when a sitter treats your pets as just a job rather than true family members. That experience inspired me to step up and become the kind of sitter every owner hopes to find. My promise to you is simple: I treat every pup with the exact same unconditional love, attentive care, and playful affection I give Athena and Maverick. When your furry best friend is with me, they aren't just being looked after—they're right at home. I am currently working full-time remotely at home, and have a flex schedule that allows me to suit your dog’s needs and schedule! Whether I’m staying at your place or taking your dog out for an adventure, I treat your home and your pets with the exact same respect, care, and attention I give my own. In Your Home: When house sitting or dropping in, I strictly follow your pet's routine, feeding schedule, and house rules to keep their environment familiar and stress-free. You can count on your home being kept clean, secure, and well-cared for while you’re away. Socialization & Play: Since my own pets can sometimes get a bit protective at home, I prefer to keep my residence separate and meet up for fun, controlled socialization in neutral public spaces like local parks. Tailored Care: Every dog is unique. I take the time to learn your pup's personal quirks, favorite games, and daily habits so they receive personalized, VIP treatment every step of the way!
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.
“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!”
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.
“Becky and her daughter did a wonderful job as always taking care of our cat. He's always happy to see them and enjoys the cuddles and play time. Thank you again for your great care!”
“Mary was ABSOLUTELY wonderful to my 2, and very large, Great Danes! One of my Danes is 10 years old, and she took such great care of him and my other Dane who is 3, while I was on vacation. She was so kinda and respectful. I definitely recommend Mary, especially for my Great Dane owners! Thank you Mary for being so kind to my lil paw family! 💜”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Arvada
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.
