“Sarah was absolutely fantastic with our dog! She kept us updated throughout her stay with regular messages and plenty of photos, which gave us real peace of mind. Our dog can be a bit particular at times, but Sarah was incredibly patient, attentive, and clearly knew how to make him feel comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“You can’t get a better pet sitter than Chonlada! We are so grateful to her for staying at our house for 8 days and watching our two dogs and elderly cat, who required extra care. It’s hard to find someone you trust to leave your loved ones with, let alone all your processions, but I truly feel comfortable with her. We could tell when we got home that our pets were well loved. No complaints, just gratitude. Thanks Chonlada!”
About: Hello! My name is Jake and I love animals. I am a graduate from CMC Veterinary Technology with experiences in clinics, non-profit animal shelters, and personal pets. I have worked with a wide variety of animals that range from small rodents, dogs, reptiles, cats, lifestock, to the crazy exotics. All of your pets are special and I am willing to take time with special care and needs such as walks, food, medications, fluids, etc. I love getting photos and videos of your pets enjoying themselves and enjoy putting montages together. I am always happy and willing to go the extra mile in order for both owners and pets to be happy and comfortable. I am currently working a full time job from 3-11 am 6x a week, this gives me nearly most days & nights to care for pets afterwards I will give any animal 100% of my attention and love. I will respect any boundary placed by the owners and the animals. I will stay and only do what I'm there to do, unless owners have asked for more such as deep-cleaning, trash, dishes, etc.
About: I strive to treat everyone's furbabies with the highest level of care as if they're my own. I've cared for every age of dog and cat for...really my whole life. I can administer medications and keep an eye on and assist more "special needs" furbabies if needed. I am a Biology major and try to learn as much as I can to care for animals the best I possibly can. I am currently working on animal first aid but I do know human FA so I can spot an emergency and care for minor wounds. I am currently working as needed at my job but, even then, my days are really open. I do have medical appointments here and there so sometimes I just need to leave the house for those but I try to return to the house expeditiously because I dont want the animals to be alone for too long. I understand not leaving dogs (especially) for too long between potty breaks so I can work around that but I try to stay at the house for 95+ percent of the time I am sitting. I purposely work around the animal's schedule so that they can be as comfortable and cared for as possible. I try to get as much information from the owner as possible so that I can make the time as similar to when the owner is around. I know changes can be stressful so avoiding any as much as possible is the best. I am known to be a cuddler but if they want their space I can definitely give it. I can give outside time to the best of my abilities and can transport in my own car with great safety if needed (e.g. if they love lake play, etc.). For younger animals, I can give regular care and make sure the space stays clean and cared for as best as possible. I understand that they need more supervision and help. I also try my best to keep an eye on outdoor heavy animals and shy animals to make sure theyre doing alright during my stay as well.
“It was such a pleasure to work with Karen! She is professional, reliable, kept me updated, and responded quickly to all my texts (I really miss my dog when I’m gone). She left my home in perfect condition. I look forward to having her stay in my home again soon.”
About: Years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I provide dependable in-home care, following your pet’s routine for comfort, safety, and happiness. I work full-time (9–5) and from home one day a week, which gives me flexibility. With my schedule I'm able to accomodate morning and evening walks, feedings, and playtime in the evenings (and lunch time when I WFH). My weekends are free, letting me spend more quality time with pets while owners are away. I care for pets in their own home, so they stay comfortable and relaxed in a familiar setting. I follow your care instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and always ensure your home is respected and secure. Pets get plenty of love, attention, and supervision every visit.
About: I’ve been caring for fur babies since I graduated high school, giving both puppies and senior dogs the special attention they need. I love animals of every shape and size and treat them like my own—because let’s be honest, they run the household anyway. Your pet will get a happy, stress-free stay with plenty of love, snuggles, and top-tier spoiling. I work a full-time job during the day, but I’m available for drop-ins and visits in the late afternoons and evenings. I’m also free all day on Sundays, as well as one select weekday depending on my schedule. If you communicate your needs ahead of time, I’ll always do my best to make it happen. Your fur baby’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I come to your home so your pet can stay in their favorite place, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. I follow your instructions carefully and keep your home secure, tidy, and respected. You’ll always get clear updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Trinity is such a joy to work with, and our dogs love her. We received regular updates during her stay, along with photos, which is always nice. We needed someone with short notice and got so lucky to find Trinity! We will use her again in the future.”
“Caitlin took wonderful care of our dog in our home while we were away. We received updates and photos and came home to a happy pup and clean house! We would recommend her for any dog sitting needs.”
“Kat, watched our cat for two weeks while we were on a trip. She took great care of him and sent us messages about how he was doing while we were away. She left the house in excellent shape after staying there for the duration. She is easy to work with and responds quickly. Would highly recommend.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10, I have watched all sorts of dogs, from family to friends to coworkers, and neighbors even:) I’m currently working for a second job but I always make sure that my animal care come first, I try to reason with my clients if change happens. I always try to make sure my dogs and cats stay occupied with toys and treats and walks making sure that they are always fed 2 time a day
“Stacy loved on our animals, sent updates, and was easy to work and communicate with. Our pup needs oral medication, which was no problem for her! She was flexible with our pet's feeding schedules and needs.”
About: Patient and loving pet sitter with 6+ years of experience. Going out for stress relieving walks around the town, up trails, and hikes. Providing great care while having fun adventures! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. I will make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need while you’re away. Your pet will receive lots of love, attention, and supervision while in my care. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and safe.
About: I come from a dog loving family with lots of experience in caring for all dogs especially those with high needs/ requirements. I have also fostered many cats and have been described by friends and family as deeply compassionate. I am currently available full time for pet care needs including overnight sitting as needed. I have a very flexible schedule allowing me to be in client’s homes as frequently as needed. I am also available most weekends. As an organized person I am very attentive to closing doors, following routines, and closely monitoring animals when visiting in others’ homes. I have a background in early childcare which helps me be aware of my surroundings and what to look for to ensure the safety of those in my care.
“Camryn is great! My dog has a terminal illness - it’s super hard for me to leave her and harder still for the person who cares for her. Civvy has special diet requirements, daily medications and eye drops. It’s a lot of care. Camryn came in without hesitation and took over with confidence. Because Camryn works full time I had set up a team of care givers so Civvy wasn’t left alone for too long. Camryn was flexible and accommodating. She maintained communication with the ‘team’ and helped organize visits - my neighbors loved her! I recommend her completely and if she’s available and willing I would book her again in a second.”
“We were very happy with Paul taking care of our dog while we were out of town. He was reliable and we could reach him by phone for any questions or updates we wanted. We hope to use him again if he’s available.”
“This is our first experience with Rover and it could not have been better. Lila communicated well, left us with a positive feeling after meeting her, made our time away less worrisome, and did a fabulous job. We came home to happy and healthy pets. I cannot recommend anyone any higher. If this is what we can expect from all Rover folks, "Put us in coach!"”
About: I’ve been caring for my own pets for over 5 years and have a genuine love for all dogs and cats. I’m reliable, organized, and have strong time-management skills, developed through years of playing collegiate and club softball. I’m committed to providing attentive, loving care for every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule as I am now home from college. I enjoy spending time with animals. I can provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I am organized, dependable, and committed to making sure pets receive the attention and care they need while their owners are away. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following their normal routine and providing a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. In a client’s home, I respect their space, follow all instructions carefully, and ensure pets have fresh water, meals, exercise, and plenty of attention. I prioritize safety during walks and playtime, monitor pets closely, and keep owners updated so they can feel confident their pets are well cared for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Battlement Mesa on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 29 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Battlement Mesa. 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 Battlement Mesa 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 Battlement Mesa 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 Battlement Mesa 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
