“Mrs Charlie was amazing with our two dogs. Took them to a dog park for them to stretch their legs and soo many pictures. Also went above and beyond along with taking care of them!”
“Sarah was great to work with. Her communication was great and she gave me updates when she was going over and during the walk. Will definately be reaching out to her for future help.”
About: Between my wife and I there will be someone home to care for your sweet pet at all times! Feel free to enjoy your day without worry. One of us works from home while the other is on a pretty sporadic schedule, no matter what though there will always be someone home for them! We offer a fenced in back yard and a house with all food and cleaning products put away so there's no chance of someone getting into something they don't need!
“Maggie was so wonderful ❤️ She took extra special care of our two precious kit kats 🐈⬛️🐈⬛️ Any time she had any questions or concerns she reached out promptly which was reassuring to know that our babies were getting what they needed. She was also really flexible and accommodating to our schedule when it came to meet and greet and pickup/drop-off of keys 🔑 We cant wait to book with her again 😍”
About: I've always loved taking care of animals. They deserve love too, I would rather spend the whole day taking care of an animal than be out on the streets wasting life and energy. Pet care would fit great in my daily or weekly routine easily because I have a flexible schedule. If needed I can work remotely or work with my schedule so I have open availability to care for your pet. My yard is fenced so your pet will be safe and has enough room to run around outside and inside . There are water bowls all over the house and yard to keep pets hydrated. When caring for your pet at your house I will be sure to treat it with respect and be sure to take good care of your pet and follow the instructions you give me .
“So glad we found Gisselle. From the moment my dogs met her, they warmed up immediately — which says a lot. She was incredibly responsive to all of our communication and kept us updated the whole time. I've already planned to rebook with her, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter!”
“When I met her in person she was ten times better than I could have imagined from over the app. Her intake of Blue was very thorough, asking about health history, medications, feeding and bathroom schedule, how he was with other dogs, children, cats, and much more. The only person we will trust to walk our dogs.”
“Ronald was a fantastic sitter for my cat. He got along great with my cat who takes a bit to warm up to strangers. Scheduling with Ronald was easy and went smoothly. I would book Ronald again”
“All around amazing!! My one cat has Asthma and needs meds/inhaler and she is great at that as well as reassured me with check ins that everything was going well. My other cat is very loving and needy and she was also sure to give both lots of love. Made me feel so much less anxious about traveling knowing I had a great sitter”
“Elise was so sweet and showed my little Lucy so much love. I was very blessed to have someone so trustful and knowledgeable taking care of my sweet sweet girl.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I started pet sitting for neighbors and my parent’s friends at a very young age and just kept going with it. And I have also volunteered at a few pet shelters. I could sit and play with a dog all day if time permitted. I have three dogs of my own and they are definitely my spoiled babies. I can stay outside and play fetch for hours if that’s what your dog loves or if the dog wants nothing but belly rubs, I can cover that too! I have interacted with so many different breeds and all different sizes of dogs and I have loved them all. I worn the usual 9-5 Monday through Friday job. So anything needing to be done over the weekends, or in the evenings, I am your person! I always follows the owners instructions. I am a guest in their and their pets home so it’s always best to make sure the dog or cat is okay with me being there.
“Mikhaila was very flexible as we had to book her last minute and even had some mishaps on our part after we left. She looked after our two cats, gave daily updates and great pictures. Quick to respond too! Thanks Mikhaila!”
“Caroline was great! Very flexible and communicative. We were in such a pinch and it was great to have someone there for our boys. She does mainly dogs but as a cat parent she was also wonderful. Thank you Caroline!”
“Erika was amazing once again, I was out of country and my sprinkler system pipe burst, and she tried reaching out but I didn’t have signal, she finally got through, and knew exactly what to do, she went above and beyond with bring jugs of water to our home, and cared for our babies like they were her own. I recommend her 100% percent and will not use anyone else going forward.”
“I appreciated Alexia’s communication from the very beginning of my last minute booking! She gave thorough, detailed updates each time she dropped in and sent pictures each time & that made me feel like my doggo Lola was definitely cared for while we were out. Would definitely book again!”
“Ria is so great - she was awesome with communicating and our cats loved her! She was very generous with her time and went above and beyond taking care of our little guys. She also was great with sending us pictures and videos each day and giving us updates while we were out of town. Could not recommend Ria enough! 10/10, will definitely be having her Rover for our animals again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Aurora
Another amazing job! We were gone for three weeks ( the longest we have ever been gone from our cats) she was attentive and informative! One of our cats needed to be given medicine (which she doesn't respond well too) and Micki was willing to work with us and try several things to help give our cat her medicine in the least stressful and best way for her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Aurora is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 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 12,838 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Aurora. 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 Aurora. 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.
