“Alyssa took great care of my babies when I was away, she is quick to answer back and I loved getting all the pictures! 10/10 would recommend anyone book with her, and will definitely be rebooking with her in the future”
“Kevin was great with both of my dogs. I have a senior and a puppy, so he had his hands full. I was very satisfied with the level of care he provided for my dogs & he sent pictures with each visit!”
About: I am a lifetime pet owner, and pet lover. I have experience with both dogs and cats. I'm available to be your fur-baby’s drop-in grandmother. I am a local retired elementary teacher. I continue to serve the Castle Rock/Larkspur/Franktown community by substitute teaching, tutoring, house cleaning, and pet sitting. I live nearby, and my daily schedule is adjusted to meet the needs of my clients. My visits begin with a calm, friendly greeting, followed by playtime, cuddles, and ear or belly scritches. I will feed and give meds as needed. I will walk your pet, or play in the yard. I can also bring in the mail/packages, or water plants or do other simple quick tasks if you need me to. I can give you photo updates, or a text. I will check the environment to make sure that your pet is safe before I leave.
“Cami and her husband are AMAZING with my pups! I know my pups can be a handful and they handle them with such grace and patience. Scout can be very wary of new people and they have taken the time to let her warm up to them! I cannot express how amazing they are and would highly recommend them for everyone!”
“Margaret went above and beyond with our new pup! Very knowledgeable about dogs, cleaned up a mess, arranged her schedule to go around my schedule, scheduled a meet and greet, will definitely use again, very dependable.”
About: I can administering medication or managing high-energy dogs I love cats, dogs big and small, puppys, and Senior dogs i also have a lot of free time. I do online school so my availability is very flexible. I love to spend time at home with my pets or out with friends. I love all animals and I am passionate about their care! I have a pretty high energy dog, she needs to be walked or needs a lot of ball time. I really enjoy spending time with her and sometimes we'll go on a small hike or to the dog park. I can provide exercise, potty breaks, give medication or just hang out so your best friend doesn't get lonely. I am also comfortable with overnight dog sitting.
“Moni did a wonderful job with my cat. Poppy seemed very happy when I got home. I received updates and pictures and I am very pleased with the experience. I will definitely use Moni again!”
About: I’ve had dogs for most of my life and bring over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for them. I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities, including reactive dogs and senior dogs who need extra patience, consistency, and attention. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and behavior so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or needs a slower pace, I adjust my approach to meet their needs. I’ve also helped care for neighbors’ pets over the years, providing dependable support and making sure their pets are well cared for and relaxed in their home environment. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most weekdays and weekends. I’m able to accommodate a variety of times, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I try to keep things as close to your pet’s normal routine as possible. Feeding, walks, and whatever they’re used to day to day. I know pets do best when things feel familiar. I’m calm and patient, especially with dogs that might be a little anxious, reactive, or older. I pay attention to how they’re acting and adjust as needed. In your home, I’m respectful and keep things tidy. I’ll also send updates and photos so you know how everything is going.
“Carissa has watched our dog twice and she did an excellent job visiting & walking her as well as communicating with us. She was patient and perceptive and eventually won our aloof dog over. This greatly eased our minds while we were away!”
“Maddie did a fantastic job! This was our first time using Rover, and we had a great experience. She came to our house multiple times each day. She was super sweet, good with communication, sending pictures and being attentive to Ace. We could tell he was being well taken care of. We will definitely use Maddie again!”
“Riley did amazing with our two dogs when we were gone for two weeks! She was great with meeting their needs whether that was cuddles or an intense play session, and the dogs loved her!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner, I bring years of hands-on care to every pet I look after. Having owned and cared for three dogs and a cat over the past 10 years, I understand the unique personalities, needs, and routines that come with different animals. From daily walks and playtime to feeding schedules, I’m attentive, patient, and committed to keeping pets happy and safe. While I don’t have formal professional experience, I have pet sit for many friends and family over the years and treat every animal as if they were my own. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and trustworthy with both pets and their owners. I have full availability as of right now, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your pets! Every day of the week from Monday-Sunday, I am available from 6am - 8pm for walks, drop-ins, and meet & greets. For walks and drop-in visits, I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and consistent with their normal routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk preferences, and any specific behaviors or needs, so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. On walks, I prioritize safety by using secure leash and harness handling, avoiding unsafe situations, and staying aware of the environment at all times. I do not allow off-leash activity unless it’s specifically requested and in a safe, enclosed area. I also pay close attention to each dog’s energy level and body language to make sure they’re comfortable and not overstimulated. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets get not only basic care like food, water, and potty breaks, but also attention, playtime, and companionship. I’m respectful of your home, keeping things clean and secure by double-checking doors, gates, and locks before leaving. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Christina saved us when we were in a pinch with holiday care for our pup and kitty. She responded right away and communicated thoroughly throughout her whole visit. We loved the pictures she sent and were so happy to have someone to give our best friends some love!”
About: I will love your dog like my own while they are with me. I don't have a dog right now so I can really make your dog feel special, give them the attention they deserve, and make them feel at home. I love being active outside with the dogs whether it's just playing out in the backyard or going on a long hike. While you are gone, I want your dog to feel like they are on the best vacation ever. I used to have a 90 lb Husky/German Shepherd mix so I do love big dogs. I also had a 40 lb rescue that I trained. I do have a fenced in backyard, so we try to be outside as much as possible when it's nice out! I am a teacher who has the summers off! I have plenty of time in the summer to spend with your pup to make them feel at home! I sometimes work a few hours a day so dogs will have to be alone for about 4 hours. In August, I do go back to teaching full time so I can definitely still care for your dogs but I am gone from 8a-4p most days during the school year:-( I have a fenced yard so we are able to spend lots of time outside. We have lots of great areas to walk to and play depending on what your dog enjoys! I do allow pets on the furniture but can also enforce rules if you want to stay consistent with training.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Castle Rock
Ashlee was absolutely incredible. She came to let my puppy out and noticed my roommates dog had an accident in his kennel. She let him out for us and cleaned his entire kennel, put his bedding in the garage and took out the trash! We will absolutely continue to book her!
Breanna is fabulous to our Charly! She took great care of her for 2 days while we went on a trip. We were updated on each visit and provided photos and even a couple of videos. It really put our minds at ease and took the worry about her well being off our minds. We are certain Charly will be begging for Breanna in the future.
This is our second time booking with Jacob. We have had an absolutely fantastic experience with him! He did drop-in visits for our three dogs and truly went above and beyond. From the start, he was professional, communicative, and clearly comfortable handling multiple pups at once. Each visit came with thoughtful updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for every time — which says everything. It’s obvious Jacob genuinely cares about the pets he looks after. We came home to three very content dogs and a tidy home. We would 100% book Jacob again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable, trustworthy, and attentive pet care on Rover. Thank you, Jacob!
I have always used Fetch and have never had an issue until recently. The dog sitter I used only came for 12 minutes, and I paid for 30, which was unfair to my puppy. Needless to say, I let her go. Just when I lost faith, I found Alyssa. She is truly heaven-sent. Houston loves her. Alyssa goes above and beyond. Not only does she stay for her 30 minutes, but she has also helped us train him. Alyssa treats Houston as if he were her puppy, which goes a long way with us. I truly love her, and she is our permanent dog sitter. If I could give her more than five stars, I would.
Riley was terrific with our 2 chihuahuas. Typically it takes them a few days to warm up to someone new but they were snuggling with her the first day. She watched them for 17 days and they were happy and well cared for the whole time. I would trust her with our 2 girls anytime.

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 Castle Rock 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.
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 Castle Rock 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Castle Rock with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
