“Ray was great with Lola! His communication with me was significant. From beginning to end of care days, Ray was available to answer any of my questions and he shared an appreciable amount of photos of my pup with me! I know that he provided wonderful care as my dog is usually anxious when we leave and needs some extra encouragement/additives to eat her kibble. But, with Ray as her sitter, she had no issues eating daily. We returned to a happy, well fed doggy! Definitely will be rebooking if he’s available when the time comes for us to need a sitter again!”
“Heidi was amazing! My dog is scared of most people, and she was so patient with her. She won my dog over and in no time and they were snuggling and the best of friends. I knew she was in good hands. I’ll be calling Heidi again for any future needs”
“Kayla did really good taking care of our poochies. She kept us up to date with what they were doing. Tackled any challenges come & very understanding”
“Amazing job!! Followed all instructions perfectly and respected my home while I was gone. Went above and beyond what I asked—would definitely book again in the future.”
“Corey was absolutely amazing while we were away on vacation! She took such great care of Brutus, our sweet old bulldog, and Pepper, our cat, and gave us complete peace of mind the entire time. It was so clear our pets were happy, comfortable, and well loved in her care. She kept the house tidy and organized, and we really appreciated all of the photo updates she sent throughout the trip. Seeing Brutus and Pepper relaxed and cared for made it so much easier to enjoy our vacation without worrying. Corey is reliable, thoughtful, communicative, and genuinely caring with animals. We came home to happy pets and a clean home, which says everything. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate pet sitter!”
“Sara and Erin were able to take care of my two senior pups with very little notice, including giving meds multiple times a day. Great communication and updates along the way and my pups seemed way less stressed than when they stay away from the house. Would highly recommend.”
“Jaxon was an outstanding house/pet sitter. He followed instructions exactly and I think the dogs miss him. He left the house clean and tidy and we will definitely be using his services again in the future.”
“Tiffany was amazing! She stopped by every other day and hung out with my cat for 30 min! She let him out, gave him water and checked on my house! I will definitely be using her for future sitting needs.”
“Jacqueline has done a great job with overnight stays watching 2 dogs and 2 cats! The animals are comfortable with her and she takes great care of them! Definitely recommend using her for your needs!”
“A top tier sitter. We’ve used her for two long trips now and each time she has went above and beyond with our dogs! We will continue to use her for any trip she is available for!!”
“Stephany did a great job watching our dog, Laila, while we traveled home for the holidays. We just moved here so it was important to us to have someone stay with her while she was still adjusting to the new apartment. Stephany was very responsive, flexible, and communicative when caring for Laila. Stephany followed our care instructions and sent us plenty of updates and photos throughout her sitting. It was just what we needed to so we wouldn’t have to worry and we could enjoy our time with our family!”
“We am beyond thrilled to have found India as a pet sitter for our 11 year old pup! It was a bit of a last minute booking, but India was nothing short of spectacular! Aside from daily updates and photos, she made sure to give our girl a little extra TLC. Our pup currently has an issue with her leg, and India made sure she was safe and comfortable the whole time we were gone! We’re both high anxiety parents (with an equally anxious dog), and not once did we feel any worry about being out of town! Also - India left our apartment *cleaner* than we left it! It was wonderful coming home to a tidy place and a happy pup! Our dog was happy to see us upon return; but she kept looking at the door for someone else to walk in - and we know who that was! I can’t recommend India enough! 10/10 - no, scratch that - 100/10! Best pet sitter in Denver, hands down!!”
“Always love having Patrick watch my pups. He is super respectful of the house, kind to the dogs, and keeps me up to date with photos and videos. He is the best!”
“Josie was very kind and respectful of my house. I barely could tell She was even here. She was very responsive and sent me pictures and videos daily while I was gone. My dog seemed happy, we’ll use her again!”
“Chelsea was terrific - sent us frequent updates and photos of happy dogs, also made sure the house was clean when we got back. No muddy dog footprints - Wow!”
“Emma is amazing!! She helped me out during a really stressful time, and evacuated with my dog during a hurricane when I couldn’t be there to help. She truly went above and beyond. I came home to a better behaved, and handsomely bathed dog. Im so impressed and couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! I would recommend her to anyone :)”
“Anny did a fantastic job looking after my pup. She consistently sent me pictures and updates. I definitely felt comfortable with her taking care of my dog! She also took fantastic care of my home. Would definitely recommend!”
“Morgan was amazing - daily updates and pictures - arrived to a clean home - and most importantly, my dog was happy and well exercised when I got home! I will definitely use Morgan again! She even sent me pictures of my flowers that bloomed while I was away!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Aurora
Caitlyn was absolutely fantastic with our two Golden Retrievers! She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. One of our Goldens ended up needing some unexpected, last-minute special care, and Caitlyn handled everything without hesitation. She was attentive, compassionate, and communicated with us every step of the way, making what could have been a stressful situation much easier. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Caitlyn to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Kathleen is wonderful! This is the second time she’s watched our dogs and cat. She is so thoughtful and caring, giving each the individual attention they need. She is really in tune with them and communicates well. I feel really comfortable knowing my pets are well taken care of and loved while we’re away. We have her scheduled again later this summer!
Sarah is amazing! She takes such good care of all our pets, big and small. She keeps our house just like we're there. She communicates frequently and keeps us appraised of all the happenings. We love her, our pets love her, and we are so happy to have found her!
Taylor was fantastic with my dogs, Pippin and Arya! He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about their wellbeing the whole time I was away. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups and total peace of mind. Highly recommend him for anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive pet sitter!
This was my first time using rover for my dog and Stephany was so wonderful! She administered medication for my ten year old dog and took such good care of her and our home. She provided updates and pictures which we loved!! We will definitely be using these services in the future!
Tamara was very easy to work with. My trip was a bit last minute but we were able to schedule a meet and greet soon after confirming the stay. She stayed in my home with my dog and was very respectful of my space. I was thankful to come home to a clean house, she really went above and beyond there. My dog is aggressive with other dogs, this is always my worry when leaving him alone with a new person but Tamara assured me she understood and I am thankful that there were no issues with that. Tamara was sure to do daily check ins and send photos, she was quick to respond before and during the stay as well. I would for sure work with Tamara again.
Carmella was awesome. We were out of the country for 10 days and she took great care of our pup while we were away. She is observant and picked up on his little quirks in no time. Left the house spotless too. Very fast to respond which helped a sometimes anxious dog mom like me! Highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter
Shelia is always absolutely wonderful to have watch the pets and house sit. She takes such great care of Rosie and Murphy, they absolutely love all the attention she gives them. It is so nice knowing someone is caring for them so well at home and we don’t have to send them somewhere out of their comfort zone to be boarded. We feel so lucky to have found Shelia!!
Garrett watched my dog, Cooper, on short notice as I headed out of town for an extended weekend. He showed up to the meet and greet that I had to schedule only mere hours before catching my flight, got along well with Coop, and took great care of him throughout the stay. I received pictures and updates at a regular cadence, and Cooper was acting his happy self upon my return. He enjoyed his time spent with Garrett! My home was also left in great shape! I would definitely have Garrett sit in my space with Cooper again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Aurora on Rover is $46.11 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 8,311 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Aurora. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Aurora walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Aurora maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Aurora 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Aurora. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
