About: I grew up around many dogs, big (my own dog Woody is a 12 year old fox red lab) and small (my other dog Juniper is a 2 year old dachshund), and I’m super comfortable around them. I’ve also dog and cat sat for neighbors and family since I could drive! Having just moved out here, I miss spending time with dogs and would love to meet some new ones :) I am currently working full time as a naturalist at Walking Mountains, but my schedule varies and allows for more flexibility week to week. I am mostly available first thing in the morning, late afternoon into the evening, and for overnights because I have a car! Dogs need lots of love and attention, and I always make sure to give it! Back at home, my dachshund Juniper requires going out regularly and lots of affection, and my lab Woody requires lots of exercise and play, so I am used to caring for dogs with different needs.
About: I love animals! I have grown up with dogs, specifically, my whole life. During college, I dog-sat for many families, one family with two Newfoundlands for three years. So I am also very capable of working with big dogs with big personalities! I do walks, playtime, and overnight stays or check-ins. I am a intern at Walking Mountains. I currently get Monday and Tuesday off. My work schedule varies from week to week. Because of that, I have a lot of flexibility to meet your needs! I am currently only offering care at your homes. I am willing to take care of all pet needs as needed, and more than willing to communicate with you while you are away about how they are doing!
About: Join Piper and I for a day of fun! Piper is a very easy going mixed breed pup. She is friendly with all pets, even cats. We love to adventure but we can be homebodies as well from time to time. So whether you want to swim and adventure the outdoors or hide from the heat and take a nap...we are here for you! I can no longer host at my apartment due to lease restrictions, but I am able to house sit and perform drop ins. I work full time at Colorado Mountain Medical. This has always been an enjoyable side gig for me ☺️ I live in Avon and will serve all of Eagle County. I am no longer available for hosting your pets per my lease agreement but I am available to house sit and walk your pets while you are away. I currently sit for a client in Eagle who has 2 cats. Frequent walks and lots of love are a guarantee. Responsible pet owner. I will stay in contact with you as little or as much as you desire while you are away. Pics included!
About: I’ve had pets of all kinds under my care since childhood! I have extensive experience with bigger dogs but also cats and fish. Currently, I walk, feed, and take care of dogs almost every day. I have a full time job from 4:00pm - 10:00pm Thursday - Monday. Therefore, I have a lot free time during the day before my shifts. However, with off-season approaching in the Valley, I expect to have much more time available. My typical day at the moment consists of a walk, hike, or some other form of exercise, and I would have no issue adding a dog to the mix. I am also available for house visits or at-home stays for any animal. :) I enjoy being active and alert, and animals always have my full attention whether they are my own or belong to someone else. I maintain cleanly living environments and pay attention to potentially poisonous foods or plants that could harm an animal. I have more extensive experience from bigger size dogs (>60 lbs,) so I am more than comfortable taking care of them and holding on a leash.
“We needed someone to watch our Bernedoodle, Rosie, while we were visiting the Vail area. We booked Mackenzie based on her outstanding reviews, and we're so glad we did! She exceeded all of our expectations and took wonderful care of Rosie, who has severe separation anxiety. Mackenzie is professional, punctual, communicative, and incredibly flexible. She made us feel completely at ease, and it was clear that Rosie was in great hands. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would recommend Mackenzie without hesitation to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Amanda did an amazing job on a very last-minute request to do two check-ins for my dog when I was unexpectedly pulled out of town for the day. Despite having never been in our home nor having never met our dog before, she followed all instructions to a "t". I got photos and messages during each visit. How nice to know my pup was well-cared for! Will definitely use her again!!”
About: I have been an animal lover as long as I can remember. Being so, I’ve volunteered with taking care of cats, dogs, and even farm animals the last 10 years of my life. I have taken care of animals with many different needs through out this journey, ranging from raising puppies to taking care of senior pups needing multiple medications a day and special attention. I began housing regularly the past 6 years around the holidays as I’m local to the area. Taking on jobs not only included doing spontaneous weekend trips but up to a month stays as well! I work Wednesday through Sunday 8-4 at Walking Mountains with the ability to run home for lunch if local to the avon area. I like to stick around on the weekends ,hike around and would love to take your pet along! I do not have the ability to take on pets in my own home as I have multiple roommates who are allergic. Given I have worked with many different families, being mindful and respectful of the rules and flow in someone’s home is very important to me. I value making my clients feel safe to leave a member of their family in my care and make clear communication of expectations my priority.
“Ashley went above and beyond to check on our dog daily including walks, cuddles, and ensuring our dog had a great day. She was prompt, attentive, and sent updates and pictures after each visit.”
“Alex was awesome and helped me get the pups out at my work while I had a day in the field. One of my pups needs medication, and he had no problem helping with that as well! Super appreciated his kindness!”
About: I have over four years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats through my local humane rescue. During my time there, I walked dogs, bathed pets, cleaned kennels and living areas, prepared food and fresh water, administered basic daily care, and helped ensure every animal was comfortable and safe. I worked with pets of all ages—from energetic puppies to senior dogs—each with their own unique needs and personalities. I am currently working from 9-4 on Tuesday through Saturday. I’m free before 9 and after 4 everyday. I also am free for mid day walks depending on your location. I am available for any pet care all day Sundays and Mondays. I provide care in your pet’s home, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any other special care. I enjoy taking dogs on safe, enriching walks to give them the exercise and mental stimulation they need, while always keeping their comfort and safety a priority. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention and affection, keep their environment clean, and send regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of more than just my pets for the past 10 years! My neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me with their dogs and cats for years. I have walked, washed, fed, and kept loads of furry friends company. I have experience with senior dogs and cats as well as puppies. I have also volunteered with the SPCA for two years, walking and caring for some wonderful shelter pets. I work a 9-5 with off days on Mondays and Tuesdays. I am happy to get up early and come by late to meet pet needs Making sure dogs have the right amount of exercise, play, and outdoor time is so important to their health, so spending quality time with pets is a priority.
About: Want your dog to be tired and worn out after a fun day exploring? Then I'm the guy for you. Hiking and adventure is what our mountains are about and the dogs love it just as much as we do. I've had dogs and have been caring for them my whole life. Your dog and I would become best friends. I've got experience with young puppies as well as seniors. I also will watch cats if you need. Just contact me for more info. Thanks and I hope to hear from you soon! I work as a real estate broker and have the flexibility to let your dog out regularly and spend lots of time interacting with them. Yard out back for walks. Daily visits to the dog park and nature preserve half a mile from my house to go hike and play with other dogs.

Keenan did such an amazing job watching my cat! She went above and beyond what was expected. Not only did she write detailed notes of each visit, she also cleaned the treat bowl just because! She made sure to pay attention to small details and cleaned her water when it began to look dirty. I will definitely be reaching back out for future needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Avon on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 382 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Avon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Avon stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Avon. On Rover:
- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 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.
