“Keeley is a wonderful sitter who cares deeply for your animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing someone to watch your pets who’ll love your pets as much as you do!”
“Katherine took great care of our two cats! She’s also a very talented photographer and we’ll be saving many of the daily photos she sent because they’re so artfully done. We will definitely reach out to her again next time we need a pet sitter!”
About: I’ve been a dog trainer for 5 years and frequently work with animal behavior, loose leash walking, and puppy basics. I’ve also been a dog groomer and bather for 3 years and have worked at various boarding facilities, so I have a lot of hands on experience with animal care and all the everyday parts of caring for dogs. I’ve also worked on an AKC German Shepherd farm doing conformation showing and training, and I’ve fostered 6 puppies that I trained and prepared for their new families — they still keep in touch with me daily! I really enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood while they’re in my care. I work part time, so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups **(Me and a roomate in the home I will be the sole and only caretaker of your pet throughout the week.)**I live just a few steps from Reaney Park and visit there frequently, so walks and outdoor time are already a regular part of my routine. I have Sundays off every week and am happy to dedicate that day to extra time and attention with your pup. My home is dog proofed and set up to be a safe, comfortable place for your pup. I have two very friendly dogs who can interact with your dog if they’re comfortable with each other, or they can be put away if your dog prefers their own space. Both of my dogs are off-leash trained, but when a client’s dog is staying with me, the door does not open unless that dog is safely leashed. We’re 10 steps away from Reaney Park, where client dogs stay on a leash or long line the entire time. We also have a fenced balcony that your dog can enjoy with supervision if you’d like them to have access to it. Inside, there are plenty of appropriate toys to chew on and cords, surfaces, and other hazards are kept out of reach. Your dog will be supervised whenever they’re not safely crated. I love giving dogs as much freedom as they can safely handle, so please feel free to tell me your pup’s expectations, routines, and requirements. I’m happy to follow them and make their stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
About: I have a Rottweiler/Husky mix of my own who is absolutely spoiled and loved! I’ve also cared for a Sphynx cat who needed some extra attention, Bulldogs with their regular eye-care routines, and my childhood dog who struggled with anxiety. Those experiences have taught me that every pet has their own personality, routine, and little quirks! Whether your pup wants to run around and play, your kitty prefers to nap in a sunny spot, or your pet needs a little extra patience and reassurance, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. 💕 I’ll keep you updated with pictures, cuddles, and plenty of love while you’re away because I know how hard it can be to leave your fur babies behind. My goal is simple: you get peace of mind, and your pet gets a fun, safe, and loving time while you’re gone! 🐶🐱✨ I have a flexible routine and do my best to work around each pet’s needs and schedule. I make sure to set aside time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I always aim to keep them comfortable and stick to their usual routines while their owners are away. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes so their pets can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I take the time to learn what makes each animal feel safe and happy. My care includes following regular feeding schedules, providing fresh water, going on walks, and taking pets out for potty breaks. I also make time for play, exercise, cuddles, and companionship. I want every pet to feel loved and comfortable while their owner is away. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs, including pets that need extra attention or have specific care routines. I’m happy to follow instructions for medications, grooming, and other special needs. I know how important patience and consistency are, especially when pets are adjusting to their owners being gone. I’ll also be respectful of your home and keep your pet’s space clean and tidy. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away. You can feel confident knowing your pets are receiving attentive, loving care and plenty of attention until you return.
About: I’ve had a dog of my own and regularly help care for my neighbors’ dogs as well, giving me experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing lots of attention. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to older senior dogs. I’m a college student with an internship, which usually leaves me fully free on Sundays and Mondays (though this can vary week to week). On workdays, I’m available early mornings and in the evenings into the night. I prioritize safety, trust, and respect in every home I visit. I follow any instructions closely, keep pets secure during walks and visits, and make sure your home is treated with care. I’m also open to dog sitting in my own home depending on the pet’s needs and compatibility.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats of all sizes, temperaments, and ages. I have my own dog and am very adaptable when it comes to pet care. I’m an avid animal lover and am prepared to provide any kind of care that your pet needs. I’m currently looking for side jobs during the summer while I am in Pullman, so pet-sitting fits perfectly into my current lifestyle. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog-walking, and house-sitting. I’m experienced in training my own dog, so I am well-equipped to uphold boundaries and training for your pets. I’m prepared to respect any boundaries and rules you have for your dogs and/or cats. I’m also experienced with having a pup with some medical conditions that require medication and monitoring, so I’m prepared to handle pets that may have some medical needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Colfax is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $21 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 193 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Colfax. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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.

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 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.
