“Melissa was excellent! She was terrific with my dog; taking him on walks and playing with him. Kiko had a big smile on his face in every post-walk photo. We are so thankful Melissa was able to help us while we were on vacation. I will absolutely have her come back! A++”
About: I have been working with all different types of dogs my whole life. Ive owened Great Danes to Chihuahuas. Recently have been walking and sitting dogs for friends. Dogs have an energy that you don't get from working with any other animal or human. I have found working with dogs makes it more fun to "work". I currently am unable to own my own dog, but am very excited to be able to help other owners out. I also enjoy getting outside and being active. If your dog likes to jog, I don't have a problem doing so. Fetch or the dog parks are also fun alternatives, if I know owners are ok with it. I’m currently working overnight shift (9:45pm-6:15am)Sat-Wed, but have plenty of time during the day to take care of your pets needs. I currently don’t have any pets, so I’d love to be able to dote on yours while you’re away. I prefer to sit in the home of the animal that is needing the care, as I feel that makes for an easier transition for the pet.
“Jason is very communicative and sent multiple photos and updates as each visit progressed. Jason was very punctual and pleasant to work with each visit. I highly recommend him!!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience and the level of care I put into every pet I watch. I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, and even horses for over 10 years, and I currently pet sit for four dogs regularly. I’m comfortable with puppies, including basic training and routines, as well as senior pets who may need extra patience, attention, or medication. I’m extremely responsible, dependable, and always on time. I truly love animals and take my role seriously—I want every pet to feel safe, happy, and fulfilled while their owners are away, not just cared for but genuinely comfortable and loved. Pet care fits really well into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work part time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to focus on the pets I’m caring for. I’m happy to do house sitting, extended stays, or regular drop-ins for potty breaks, feeding, walks, and lots of attention and love. I plan my schedule around the pets’ routines to make sure they get consistent care, and I take being reliable and on time very seriously. Making sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for is always a priority for me. I care for pets by sticking closely to their normal routines, whether that’s in my home or in a client’s home. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and attention. I always keep their space clean and safe, and I pay close attention to their behavior so I can notice if anything seems off. I’m comfortable giving extra care to puppies who need structure and training, as well as senior pets who may need a slower pace or medication. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, happy, and as stress-free as possible while their owners are away.
About: I grew up on a ranch so plenty of experience with cats and dogs both indoor and outdoor. Young or old, small or large dogs; I can meet the needs of every animal! I am currently working part time so I have lots of time for walks and activities. I am very attentive, great at keeping scheduled feedings, and have a flexible schedule with plenty of free time to be present. I have plenty of time to be present with your fur baby. I enjoy going for walks and can easily keep track of a schedule.
“Edyn is so great with our senior boy. We appreciate that she pays attention to his level of enthusiasm for the walk, which can definitely vary by the weather and time of day.”
About: I’ve taken care of friends and families pets for many years. Dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens 😊 love them all! Would love the chance to have more fur friends. I’m flexible on days/hours. I have 2 children that would love to meet your fur baby but respect if you’d rather them stay home.
About: I've taken care of dogs and various other animals for 9 years now. We have 2 dogs of our own a GSP puppy and a creme Labrador. They are both friendly pups. I am currently working part time at AMR and am a stay at home mom full time due to my daughters care needs. We are home daily and would be around to play with your fur family and keep them company while you are gone! We allow dogs inside and on the furniture. We have a fenced in front yard that the dogs can go outside and potty and play in. They can go on walks as we live on a almost 3 acre farm.
“Jamie was the perfect dog sitter for my 6 month old pup! So sweet, best sitter in Mammoth, and will be using again! My boyfriend and I wanted our pup to enjoy the outdoors while he and I went golfing, and Jamie was better than perfect. She picked my pup up and went on TWO hikes with him! She was sweet and sent fun photos and he was perfectly tuckered out when we got home. Thanks Jamie!”
“Brooke was right on time and I could see she likes what she does. My dogs had a nice walk on a day that I was feeling under the weather and had decided to give Rover a try. She even put up with my Swaggz rolling around under some trees being a big goofy butt.”
About: I have worked with pets for all of my adult life. I began working at an animal shelter in Kentucky and volunteering with several rescues at age 19. I have sense transitioned into a career in veterinary medicine. I have some training experience from previous jobs and have experience with many different breeds. I’m experienced with senior pet care as well as administering medication! I have recently found out I am pregnant so I am now home daily for pet care. Can provide frequent potty breaks for puppies or older pets. I also have a young dog of my own for playing. We have a small fenced yard, for larger or more high energy pets we do leash walk if okay with owner. I have lick mats and puzzle feeders for more high energy pets that I do not mind providing.
About: I am an avid dog lover and dog trainer dedicated to providing exceptional care for your pets. Having grown up with pets and personally owned eight (including my feline friends), I have a lifetime of experience. I enjoy working with all dogs, specializing in rescue dogs and large breeds like Great Danes. I am happy to accommodate any special requirements or desires your pet may have. I look forward to meeting and caring for your loved one like they are my own. **please read scheduling details as I work a split schedule during the week** I am currently available for dog care, drop-ins, and walking during the following times: Weekdays: Available after 5:30 PM every day. Weekends: Available all day Saturday and Sunday for ALL services. Note on Scheduling: I currently work a full-time, split schedule during the week (5:30 AM – 10:30 AM with a 2-hour break, then 12:30 PM – 5:30 PM). If my availability appears unavailable online, please contact me directly, and we can work out a time. I have two very well-behaved and socialized dogs at home: My Great Dane loves playing with other dogs and is friendly with cats (if they permit!). My Labrynesse is a calm, older dog. Neither of my dogs is aggressive or territorial, and they adapt well to schedule changes. I have kennels available and plenty of space for dogs to run, along with constant access to fresh water. I also have a playful puppy who is energetic and currently undergoing training.
About: As a child I always brought home animals. From cats, dogs, hurt birds and once a baby racoon whos mom was hit by a car. We bottle feed him and got him healthy and released him back into the wild. I love all animals .Animals are an amazing part of our human experience! Open schedule at this time. And soon when it’s summer so if your going on vacation. You can rest assured. Your pet will be very loved while you are away. I have a fenced area and a walking trail directly behind my townhome. Looking for dogs who love to walk. So I can get this weight off my buns. And walking is so much more fun with a furbabies! I am available on weekends and mid afternoons to evenings. And would love to take your dog out to play and get much needed exercise Since my complex does not allow pets k would have to care for them in your home. Although it’s seems most pets are most content in a familiar environment.
About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life, and as a pet owner and a rover user myself, I take training, consistency, and happy puppies very seriously. Your best friend will be in great hands! I have a 8 month old who LOVES other dogs so if needed or wanted your doggo will have another friend :) *If participating in doggy day care due to me having my own dog, I will only accept dogs good with other dogs* Super flexible! I am very available until May 13th. I'm very active and love dogs so this is a perfect combo. I'm an early riser as well so no worries if your walk is early I follow instructions to the T. If I'm unsure about anything I'll shoot them a text or give them a call. I think it's important to keep consistency.
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats and other animals my entire life. I've worked at a few rescues and I feel like I can work with any pet. I have epilepsy and so I have had a very difficult time keeping any traditional job and so I have a lot of down time right now. I love animals. I remember when I was young, I wanted to be a zoo keeper and I spelled it "zoo kepper". Currently I have two dogs and one cat and they are my heart. My main concern in water. I want to make sure my dogs (or any dog) always has access to water. Everyone has specific ways of caring for their pets. Personally, I like to play with my dogs and make sure they are as happy as can be. My cat just wants love so we give her lots of love.
About: My first job when I was a kid was to walk my neighbor's dogs. Since then, I've worked and volunteered with several different animal organizations, completed different training courses, handled dozens of different dogs of all shapes and sizes. Every animal is different, and I respect each and every one! As an artist, I find caring for pets the perfect balance to studio time—nothing inspires a break like a cold nose nudging your elbow or a purring cat settling onto your sketchbook. Pets are treated like family. I believe structure and exercise are important and look for a relaxed demeanor to know that the animals needs have been met.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Cañon City. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Every walker 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.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cañon City. On Rover:
- 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
