About: With a lifetime of experience caring for a variety of animals, I have developed a deep understanding and appreciation for the diverse needs and behaviors of domestic pets. My background includes extensive work with both dogs and cats, ensuring they receive the specialized attention, exercise, and companionship essential to their well-being. My passion for animal welfare drives me to provide a high standard of care focused on health and happiness. As a dedicated pet sitter, I am committed to treating your companions with the same love and respect as if they were my own, offering you peace of mind while you are away. Let me know what you need and I can accommodate for you as needed! I’m excited to meet your fur baby and have a good time! I will keep your furbaby safe. Your pets day will be filled with exciting walks, playtime, and lots of love. I’ll make sure they stay active and happy!
About: My promise is to love your dog as much I love mine! I can walk with them and not rush. Dogs need to smell the roses ... grass .... their corner ... yes, take it all in! I've only walked my dog and daughter's so I'm relatively new to doggies. A dog will always always see a person's love and heart. I hope you have dog poop bags .... it's a pet peeve of mine. I truly believe in being a poop svooper. Take the memories with you, leave nothing behind! Allow me to watch your fur baby just like I take care of mine! I will also provide a quick description of dog's activities while I care for them which gives you peace. XO
About: I grew up with all kinds of dogs and have raised several large breed dogs myself. It currently isn’t the right time for me to welcome a new dog into my life full time but I miss having the company. I’m currently working from home so I have lots of flexibility for cuddles, walks and potty breaks. I’m also a runner and happy to take any high energy dogs out for a tour. I do not have a backyard but am close to parks where we can walk. I have space for a dog bed or crate if needed. My neighborhood is dog friendly.
“Blyth was wonderful with our pets and treated them with great care. She paid close attention to their needs and even played stimulating games with them. She left the house spotless and was very respectful of our belongings. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“This duo is where it’s at! They were amazing with my poocho, Sven- and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable with him in their care. I received photo updates and you can just tell they have a strong love for animals ♥️ I really appreciated their help with such short notice and taking wonderful care of my boy. Thanks again guys!!”
About: I’ve worked with pets of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, and I take pride in building trust and creating a calm, loving environment for every animal I care for. My experience has equipped me to handle special needs, emergencies, and unique routines with professionalism and compassion. Your pet’s well-being is always my priority. I am currently completing my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, which allows me to maintain a structured and reliable schedule. I also work as a licensed QMAP, where I care for elderly individuals and assist with medication administration and daily support. Because of this background, I am detail oriented, dependable, and comfortable following specific care instructions. My school schedule is flexible, and I am available for drop in visits and scheduled care throughout the week. I prioritize time management and clear communication, so you can expect consistency and updates while you are away. Going away? I’ll treat your furry (or feathery or scaly) friends like family while you’re gone. With experience caring for [dogs, cats, birds, etc.] of all breeds and personalities, I’ll ensure they stay happy, safe, and loved in their own home or mine!
About: I have a small friendly dog of my own and grew up in a pet friendly home with a mother who worked at the zoo so I have a lot of experience with many different types of dogs I’m available all day til 630pm I work nights I’m available all day Wednesday and Thursday also but feel free to reach out and we can work something out I’m very kind to people and animals all in the same I believe they deserve to be treated right and with integrity and kindness like everyone
About: I am new to the world of pet sitting but I have lived with and taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family pets my whole life! I am excited to be on this journey and looking forward to all the wonderful experiences with your pets! I am currently in between jobs so my time is extremely flexible. I own my own business, but can work your pet easily into my weekly routine! We have no pets of our own at the moment so your fur baby would be the center of my attention! We have no yard, so tons of walkies would be in store! We do have the space to crate your pet if needed, though sharing the couch and bed are fair game as well.
“Tamarine watched our high-maintenance pups for 2 weeks while we were out of the country and our dogs had a great time! They were well loved and cared for, which was a HUGE weight off as we traveled. Each day we received photo updates that made us smile and made the guilt of leaving them fade away. Tamarine worked with our younger pup to help her with pulling while walking and also focusing from distractions. It's obvious this work has stuck, as she is a new dog when she walks! She respectfully waits for other dogs to pass and doesn't lunge at or jump on passers by. Our older, grumpy chihuaua was also charmed by Tamarine. Would recommend her to anyone!”
About: I have taken care of my own pup for around two years now, but have had experience prior in dog sitting a litter of newborn puppies and the mom. I am able to keep up with whatever routine your pet needs. I am available anytime on the weekends from Friday after 5pm to Sunday evening. I am open to being a little more flexible with these hours so just reach out if you have any questions! I have experience with both bigger and smaller dogs, puppies and seniors. I have my own pup who can come over to socialize but am able to leave him at home if your dog needs one on one time.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and I can’t imagine it any other way. Right now, I have two sweet senior cats and one young pup who keep me company. Because of them, I know the importance of patience, love, and consistency when it comes to caring for pets. I enjoy walking, hiking, and training dogs, and I have just as much love for cats. I live in a wonderful neighborhood with nearby parks, dog parks, and beautiful streets—perfect for fun, safe walks and happy pets. I’m currently in night school from 5–10:30 PM and typically wake up around 9 AM, which means my days are wide open for pet care. I already go on daily walks and hike weekly, so fitting your pet into my routine feels completely natural. I keep a consistent daily rhythm while staying flexible around your pet’s needs. I live in a spacious one-bedroom apartment in a walkable neighborhood with lots of nearby parks, perfect for daily walks and outdoor time. I have plenty of room for a crate if needed, and I can create a separate, comfortable space for your pet if they need some quiet or alone time.
“Tyler watched our home, dog, and cat for two weeks. He communicated and sent pictures regularly. He was very accommodating to our delayed flight home ensuring our pets were cared for until we arrived. Our home was spotless upon our return. Highly recommend Tyler and will be booking with him for future trips!”
About: Passionate Dog lover with 20+years of experience providing luxury in-home care for dogs. Reliable, patient, and trustworthy. I have experience in walking and running with dogs. I feed them on schedule and can administer medications. Available for drop-in visits, boarding , and walks. I’m dedicated to providing a safe and comfortable environment for all pets under my care. I also have two friendly dogs of my own. If your dogs need their own space, I can accommodate that as well. Pet care is a daily routine with feedings and runs everyday! I’m currently working from home and I stay very active running my miles. Your dogs will stay active. I have a fenced yard with two dogs to keep yours company. I can also separate them if needed. I can easily watch them play in the backyard from inside my house.
About: From malteses and chihuahuas to Great Pyrenees and labs! We’ve done it all! Just getting started on Rover — we have a loving home with a 3 yr old Golden Retriever (male — very submissive) and 10 year old Lab (female— very submissive.) Our golden plays with all dogs, and LOVES the little guys! My husband works from home and I am a nurse working occasionally! I’m home most days and plan to be home while dog sitting. The dogs are allowed everywhere in the house. Our home is their home. They follow us around the home all day. They get plenty of exercise, depending on your dogs needs! We have a fenced yard with a dog door! Can easily crate a dog, if needed! We separate dogs for feedings to reduce any resource protection/guarding. I love taking the dogs to the Cherry Creek dog park, depending on your level of comfort with that! I love sending you photos of your pup having a blast while you’re away :)
“Saya was wonderful with our dog and cat! He helped us out watching them over the holidays and they loved having him around. He was very responsive and responsible - I would definitely recommend booking with Saya!”
“Lorraine was awesome!!! My fur babies were happy, safe, loved, and well fed! She even made a video of them for me!! Sent me lots of photos (that I loved) and kept me up to date. Home was well taken care of as well. Using her again in a week! Highly recommend!!”
“We had a great experience with Luke and Taylor. We had them stay at our house to watch our two dogs and cat for a long weekend while we were out of town for a wedding. They kept us updated with photos and a quick message/update every day. They left the house clean and did more than we asked of them and most importantly I could tell they truly cared for and about our babies. We would definitely recommend/use them again.”
“Mckinzie is amazing! Messaged her last minute for house sitting and she was very responsive. We decided to do the house sitting with her dog Sully coming along (although she was flexible about bringing him), we did a great meet and greet with the dogs before the boarding stay and I felt Mckinzie was very attentive to the dogs interactions and considerate. She was patient and kind with my dog, who is highly energetic so it means a lot haha. My house was in great shape when I got home. Highly recommend!”
“Kamilla stayed at our house and took care of our two young cats for a little over a week. She was very communicative, took great care of the cats and was very respectful of our home. We have already booked her for two more upcoming trips and we would highly recommend her to anyone else!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Byers 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 Byers 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Byers 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 , 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 .
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 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.
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.
