“Emmalia was amazing watching our 2 dogs, 2 cats, and fish in our home. One of our dogs had a last minute medical diagnosis that required frequent medication during the day, and she was able to help us with that during our trip. She also sent frequent updates and pictures throughout the trip and also left a super cute note and drawing at the end of her care! We look forward to using her services again in the future!”

“We are so happy to have found Adyson! She watched our two pups overnight, and we couldn't be more pleased with the overall experience. Adyson sent us many pictures of her stay and when we returned home, the dogs were incredibly happy, and the house was just as we left it. It is such a relief to find someone so trustworthy and dependable. We appreciate her so much and highly recommend Adyson to anyone looking for an excellent sitter for their furry family members!”

“Our two cats are both one-and-a-half years old. We had never been away from them overnight, so in preparing recently for a ten-day trip we wanted a house sitter we were comfortable with and could count on. Anna was highly recommended to us by a neighbor and we now highly recommend her to others. She did a terrific job with our cats and has the skills, temperament, and experience to meet the needs of any and all companion animals. Anna is the best of the best!”

About: Hi! My name is Laurel, but my friends call me Lolo. I have been caring for animals since I could walk. No, seriously, I have! I was blessed with the opportunity to grow up with all kinds of animals to care for daily. If you have grown up on a ranch or a farm, you know what I am talking about. We had two Australian Shepherds, horses, a donkey, barn cats, you name it! Those days sparked the passion I have for animals and taught me how to work my booty off. We were taught to NEVER leave the gate open, always clean up after ourselves (and the animals), and to show love to every living being. As an adult, I worked at multiple doggy daycares, adventured with some really amazing horses (and riders) at a Girl Scout camp in California, and have taken every opportunity I have found to spend time with animals. My dream is to one day open a ranch for rescue animals of all species and breeds. Until then, I am elated to be offering my pet care services to YOU and your furry friends (or scaly, I don't judge). Follow our Instagram to see what we are up to. I can't wait to hear from you! I can definitely handle young crazy puppies that jump, chew, pee everywhere, etc. as well as older (more fragile) dogs that need specialized care. I also have experience giving medications. I don't mind having dogs in my car and will happily bathe your dogs upon request. I am passionate about caring for all animals, especially dogs, and I am not intimidated easily! If you have other pets in your home, I will feed them and give them some love as well. I look forward to meeting your fur/feather/scaly babies and will treat them as they are my own! I work remotely Monday-Friday for a small company and I have a very flexible schedule. I can tailor my day to fit your pets needs, and I will be with them most of the day! **I absolutely update all of my clients with photos and updates! I give you my direct cell phone number so you can contact me at any time if you want to know how your babies are doing. Safety of your pet is my number one priority. I never leave your home until your dog is properly leashed and wearing protective footwear when necessary. Please understand that I will not be able to provide a dog walk without proper safety equipment such as a collar with updated tags, a secure leash, etc. I operate my own pet care business out of my home, caring for your pets IS my weekly routine. I have a very flexible schedule. Safety of your pet is my number one priority. I never leave your home until your dog is properly leashed and wearing protective footwear when necessary. Please understand that I will not be able to provide a dog walk without proper protection for their paw pads due to the high heat in the summer. My own house has multiple baby gates to ensure no dog escapes through any entry point as clients are coming and going. Our backyard is fenced and we keep a lock on our gate at all times. We have a shaded area for dogs to go potty even on the hottest of days and keep our AC set to 78 or lower at all times.

“We were away for two weeks and Blyth stayed at our house for the 2nd time. She is amazing. She had a devastating family emergency come up while we were away and she never even considered leaving early. She goes above and beyond and our 8 month old springer adores her. We were comfortable he was loved on and in great hands.”

Neighbors, friends and family all rely on my services. I'm currently enrolled into school full time. That being said I'm available at any time for your pet care needs!

About: My whole adult life I’ve had the privilege of caring and loving many dogs and cats. I work with a pet rescue organization that has provided me with the knowledge and experience to give the best care for your loved ones. I am a full time musician and have spent 25 years touring all over the world. I lost my dog who traveled with me everywhere a few years back and now, taking a much needed break from the road, I am finding lots of extra time that I would love to fill surrounded by animals. I have just relocated to this area from Florida and my schedule is wide open. Every pet is different and has its own specific needs. I love long walks, to play fetch, swim, or just watch squirrels if that’s what they are into. I also have some experience with training on a leash, potty, and simple commands. A discussion about your animal, specific needs, and character is a good place to start.

“Catherine recently watched over our entire zoo while we were out of town, and she did an absolutely amazing job! We have three cats, two large dogs, and a good sized flock of chickens. She also kept an eye on our house and property, and treated it as her own, with care and respect. From the moment she met our pets, she had a connection with them that we have never seen with previous pet sitters. Our female dog Ruby, who doesn't really like anyone but us, instantly bonded with her. Even our fussiest, untrusting cat Muffin crawled up on her lap after a few visits, which is truly something special (it took YEARS before she would climb onto my wife's lap!). Our pets sensed from the very first meeting that Catherine was a kind, caring friend. Our biggest challenge in finding a pet sitter is that we have to large diabetic dogs, which require insulin injections and carefully monitored dietary needs on a very firm schedule. This scared away most of the sitters we approached before Catherine, but not her. She had some prior experience with injections, but never before had cared for diabetic pets. She jumped right in and followed our directions precisely on how to do everything, asked great questions, researched proper diabetic pet care on her own time, and even offered to come back for a final visit before we left to make sure we were comfortable with her administering the insulin injections properly. She took the added responsibility seriously, and made sure we did not have any doubts or worries when we were far from home. She went the extra mile to check in with us regularly to let us know how the dogs were doing, and even sent us pictures of their time together. We could not have been more pleased! I also appreciate that Catherine communicated very well with us both before and during the stay. If she had questions, she asked immediately. If there was anything I was unclear about in my pages-long laundry list of instructions for the house and pets, she asked for clarification. She made it a priority to make our sure our pets were comfortable by having the same daily routines in place while we were away. I'm pretty sure the cats didn't even notice we were gone. The chickens were another obstacle in finding a sitter, but Catherine had grown up around them and was very comfortable caring for them as well. We returned to a house full of happy, healthy critters. Having had several sitters over the years, I can't stress enough how comfortable and at ease all of our pets were with Catherine. It seems everyone involved had a great time in our absence. We are already planning to book Catherine for some other trips we have planned. We are so thankful to have found her - a caring and competent pet sitter is such a huge blessing when you tend to worry about your pets like I do!”

I've been dog sitting for a good 5 years now, and have been walking them for about another 2 year. I love all kinds of dog and cat breeds. I have a a big dog park right next to my place that I occasionally take my puppy to, to have a full relaxing time to themselves. I have a wide open schedule. I work hybrid at home, so I'm constantly sitting and just waiting. You let me know when and I'll do it. I am a stay at home military wife. I have full availability and even have flexible times for anything of your needs. I love to watch movies on the couch and have some snuggles. Going on walks is a must in my day.

About: Hi I'm Tori! I've been working closely and training with dogs for the better part of 8 years. When I first started working with dogs, I walked packs of 8-10 dogs off leash in San Francisco parks! I'm solely based in positive (R+) reinforcement training and love to help owners build their best relationships with their beloved pups! I am currently based in Colorado Springs. I'm familiar with great dog-friendly trails and have worked with all kinds of dogs (temperaments, age, and sizes)! I have a dog friendly home in Old Colorado City. I do have a safe fenced in backyard. I always do "meet and greets" before boarding or training any dog. If I stay at the dog owners' home, I stick to the dogs normal schedule/routine and make sure their home and pup is better than I found it! I'm trained in understanding dog's needs and being hyper aware of my environment to ensure safety of the dog I'm watching/walking! I hope to meet your beloved pup soon! Please reach out with any inquiries or questions! I’m very flexible for my clients needs! I do not have any pets of my own and am gone less than 6 hours a day, if I am gone at all. I always try to stick to the dogs normal routine and care! My home has no other pets and I am very experienced in walking, training, and sitting at my home and pet owners homes!

“We left our Great Pyrenees, Archie, with David for a long weekend and I’m pretty sure he had the time of his life! Based on the videos that I received, it looked like Archie loved every second spent with him and the other pups. David was super easy to communicate with and was quick to respond. We will definitely use his services again. I’m certain that Archie will be thrilled to go back :)”

FAQs for House Sitting - Calhan

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Calhan is $31 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $40 per night. 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 959 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Calhan. 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 Calhan 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 Calhan 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 Calhan 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Calhan. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
