About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have helped take care of them whether that was with my mom, dad, grandparents, friends etc. I have plenty of experience with all stages of life from being a puppy to senior dogs. I am also well versed in basic care like walking, grooming, feeding (including medicine), play, and training. At the moment I work part time on most Thursday's so I will not be available then unless absolutely needed. Other than that I am free to look after your dog whenever. At a clients home typically I would ask the basic routine of their pet, what is off limits for them, how often they would like updates, what to do in case of an emergency, and anything else I or they see fit before arriving. I want to make sure I can be a dependable caretaker for their pets, as well as a trustworthy and respectable guest in their house.

She also changed his robot litterbox and took out the trash, neither of which she needed to do. I will absolutely book her again next time I need someone, I trust her completely!”

“Finding Samantha has changed my life. Before, my beloved (fussy, anxious) dog had become such a tricky issue that I couldn't really travel without him. Now, after a year and a half, Samantha has become a crucial part of our setup. Trustworthy up the kazoo, kind and warm, she connects deeply with pets and has many years of professional experience working with them. My dog howls with joy when she comes. And I can head off knowing that he's utterly safe and happy in her care. Thank you Rover and Samantha! I ouldn't be more grateful.”
“April is fantastic! She went above and beyond what we asked of her and maintained excellent communication throughout the entire booking. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our boy was in such good hands. We can’t recommend her enough!”
“Jessica is awesome! We had a last minute request and Jessica was quick to respond and set up a meet and greet. During the meet and greet my dog Sana immediately took a liking to Jessica and I could tell they were going to have a great time. I provided detailed instructions and Jessica took them in stride. During the actual drop in visits, Jessica provided great updates and photos throughout which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Jessica and will rebook in the future. Thanks again!”

About: I have always loved animals and started pet sitting for neighbors by the time I was 12. When I got older, my first job was at a grooming salon, then at a daycare, boarding, and vet facility. I’ve worked with all sizes, ages, and temperaments for over 2 years. Since then I’ve switched careers but still love being around all animals. To be transparent, I do work full time but otherwise will be able to spend weekends and nights with your pets. My approach to sitting will be dependent on your animals and their activity levels. I am open to doing as much play as possible. I would prefer to keep your animals in their own environment so they are as comfortable as possible. I am happy to do services at home and take your animals outside. I am able to do house sitting and dog walking.

About: I've been caring for dogs for 5+ years and have 3 years of professional boarding experience through Rover. My 3 year old Border Collie mix, Lyra, has been my best teacher. she's helped me learn how to manage high energy personalities, read canine body language, and understand what different dogs need to feel comfortable. Through working with various dogs and their families, I've developed a good eye for spotting anxiety triggers and helping nervous pups settle in. I'm a full-time architecture student at CU Denver with flexible availability for house sitting and dog walking. Since I split my time between Denver and Brighton, I can provide care in the Denver metro area. When I'm not in class, I'm fully available to give your pup my undivided attention, whether that's multiple potty breaks throughout the day, mid-day walks, or just hanging out on the couch during study sessions. Safety is my absolute top priority, which is why I believe in honest, open communication from the start. I know all dogs have their quirks, and that's completely okay! What matters is that I know about them upfront so I can create the safest, most comfortable environment for your pup. Before any booking, I'd love to chat about: Your dog's history with other dogs (any past incidents, even minor ones?) Triggers or situations that make them anxious or reactive Food, toy, or space guarding behaviors Crate training comfort level Any protective tendencies around their people For pullers, I encourage positive reinforcement with treats and such, it makes walks way more enjoyable for both of us! I'll send you daily photo updates so you always know your pup is happy and safe. My goal is for you to feel like you're leaving your dog with someone you completely trust.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Brighton
We had an amazing experience with Shelby. She was very communicative throughout our trip and went above and beyond when we ran into an unexpected issue with our locks and door access. Our cat was clearly very happy and comfortable with her, and I never worried about him during our long trip. She also took care of thoughtful extra details like wiping up litter on the floor and bringing in our packages. We’re so grateful for her care and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring cat sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Brighton is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $36 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 13,568 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Brighton. 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 Brighton. 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

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.
