“Spencer was very good with my two cats. He got the shy independent one to lay with him on the couch. He sent photos everyday and the cats looked very content. Mostly lying around in the same vicinity. Spencer also brought in the packages that were delivered. Would use him again.”
“Cathy was great with the dogs!! She communicated very well, was on time, and took care of my babies without any issues. One is young, rambunctious, and energetic while the other is small and old but still likes a little attention and play time. She did well with both.”
“Rayelle did a wonderful job, as always! It's such a relief knowing that while we're out of town, or cats will get to enjoy daily visits from their buddy 😊. We pretty much trust Rayelle like family at this point. She also keeps excellent communication and, most importantly, truly cares about our precious fur babies. If you're reading this review, then look no further, as Rayelle is pretty much the best that you're gonna find here!”
“I have hired Zoe twice now to take care of my cat. She is always on time, sends her report cards and pictures! My cat is very responsive to her and enjoys her company. I will continue to hire Zoe if she is available. I trust her completely.”
“Jason's help is so appreciated! Our dog Sam was well taken care of (feeding & walking). It looks like Sam made new friends and had fun playing. We would ask for him to come sit Sam again. Thank you !”
“Amelia is the best. She came over to hang out with my dogs and feed them. Since it was crazy hot today, she made sure they played in their play pools and cooled down. I highly recommend Amelia for your pet sitting needs!”
“Melissa was awesome!! We had just moved to area and needed to find a dog sitter last minute. She was able to accommodate our very last minute notice and has always been super responsive and personable. She has watched our dogs twice now and I would highly recommend. We will be using Melissa’s service in the future!”
About: I work full time as a remote paralegal at a law firm. I own 4 fur babies of my own and know how important it is for them to get the care and attention that they deserve. Don’t stress while you are away at the office, because I am here to give them all the love and attention for you. I work full time as a remote paralegal and therefore am able to stop by your home during the day or night to check on your fur babies for you. I care for your dogs as if they are my own. Walks, play time, daily massages and kisses. If your dog requires certain accommodations I am happy to comply with those specifics as well.
“Arianna sent photos daily, but ended up being unavailable one of the days I had her booked for and I was informed 45 minutes after the drop-in time, day of. Luckily, my partner was in town and able to stop by to care for my cats, albeit later than they are normally fed.”
“Tara did a wonderful job watching our pups! We were able to enjoy our time away because she kept us updated and at ease through the whole process. We will definitely be booking Tara again if she’s available!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was very little with my first beagle Buddy! I often cat sit for family members as well! I would be glad to care for yours! I’m in college and work part time which leaves my schedule relatively flexible. I miss my pets so much I would love to spend time with yours! I am very comfortable around all pets and can care for yours as needed. My dog at home is very friendly. I can bring your dog to my apartment my roommates will love on them too!
“We love Jamie. She did great with our dogs. She has a calm and kind energy. She was very patient with our older dog who is fearful of strangers and protective. Great communication. We definitely would love for her to watch our dogs again. ❤️”
“Cambrii was a very responsible and loving caretaker of my pets while we were away. My cat warmed right up to her, and she sent many cute photos of my cat and my ducks. Knowing they were all cared for with kindness was a huge relief while we were away!”
About: What sets me apart is my background as a veterinary technician. I’m experienced in administering medications, recognizing early signs of illness or distress, and following detailed care routines. I stay calm in unexpected situations and prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll receive knowledgeable, compassionate care tailored to their needs. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible weekday schedule that allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits, as well as extended care when needed. My routine allows pets frequent check-ins, consistent feeding times, medication administration, and plenty of attention and supervision. I have multiple areas in my home where your pet can stay either with my pets or separately, depending on their comfort level. Pets are welcome inside, and if they prefer or require crate time, I’m happy to provide a crate as well. I prioritize a calm, safe, and flexible environment tailored to each pet’s needs.
“Absolutely wonderful!! Couldn't have asked for a better sitter; Laurel kept us updated every visit and sent pictures where our dogs looked so much happier than they ever have at a boarding kennel. Thank you so much!!”
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.
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.

This trip was a bit longer than usual but I had peace of mind knowing Zoe was there to take care of Abby. She is always on time and keeps in touch with many photos. I love the report cards she sends me too. Very detailed with all going on with my cat. She is fantastic!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Cañon City on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 109 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cañon City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cañon City stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cañon City. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters 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 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.
