“Kairi was awesome and my pups obviously loved her! It was such a relief having her there when we couldn’t be. I will definitely ask for her again.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, and rabbits throughout my life. I currently have two cats and have experience with multi-pet households, including having five cats and a dog at one time. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. I currently have a flexible schedule and am available throughout the week for pet care. I have plenty of time to give your pets attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and care according to their normal routine. I’m available for daytime visits and overnight house sitting. I provide calm, attentive care in your pet’s home, following their normal routines and keeping their environment clean and comfortable. I’m respectful of your home and understand the trust involved in caring for your pets while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you have peace of mind.

About: I have experience working with zoo animals and I’ve worked at my local humane society and vet clinic. I take the time to understand each dog’s unique behavior in order to become the best of friends! At the vet clinic I was a boarding assistant so each day I handled dozens of different dogs. I try to learn about your pet and treat them just like any other living creature. I have rehabilitated a dog that was destined to be euthanized because of his aggressive behavior. I spent every day with him and did what needed to be done to help him realize the world isn’t that scary when you have a friend to explore it with. Although cats are my animal of choice, dogs are a close second. I work full time as a lab tech at a small dental arts studio. My three co-workers, our boss, and I all have a mutual respect and understanding of each other’s needs. I think we would all agree that pets and personal affairs come first. Meaning I can easily leave work to manage your animals as needed. I have had pets in the house my entire life. I currently live with two cats a a dog, so having your pet stay with me would not really be an option. If your dog is friendly to other dogs, our dog, Beasley, is very well behaved and loves to play with anything that moves! In past house/pet sitting jobs I have gone to the dog park with both her and the owner’s dogs so if that is something you would be ok with I we would have so much fun doing that!

About: Hi! My name is Taylor, and I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule and a love for animals. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes. Because I’m home throughout the day, your pup will receive plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone you trust. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. I welcome well-behaved, house-trained dogs that are friendly with children and other dogs. My goal is to make your pet feel like part of the family while you’re away! * Fenced yard * Comfortable administering medications * Daily walks * Experience with large/giant breeds * Experience with anxious dogs As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and am home throughout most of the day. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of attention. Your dog won’t be left alone for long periods and will be cared for as part of our daily routine. I am available for boarding throughout the week and on weekends! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and enjoy time outside. I will follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, and crate use if needed. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Because I have young children in the home, I only accept dogs that are friendly with children and comfortable in a family environment. Meet-and-greets are welcome to help ensure a good fit for everyone.

“Chelsea was a real life saver. I put a request in at the last minute and she was able to accommodate my needs. She communicated clearly, helped me navigate Rover, and sent me updates with pictures of my happy pup. And she was even able to give the cat some love - which is rare since he’s a jerk. I would use Chelsea again in a heartbeat!”

“Really appreciate Joslin's help with Arthur. He can sometimes get separation anxiety and shed a lot after a trip, but he didn't have that at all. She was also flexible with some of his feeding issues. 10/10 would recommend!”

“We were camping in Custer for two weeks and needed someone to walk our two dogs while we rode our bikes during the rally. We felt SO lucky to have Kim respond to our request! I set up 13 visits (tbd) months before then firmed up dates and times when we met with Kim. She took such wonderful, loving care of our two ‘mature’ pups. One is on medication and needs frequent potty breaks and Kim arranged her schedule for that. She kept me informed on each visit which definitely eased my mind so I was able to enjoy my day knowing they were in good hands. Thank you, Kim!!”

Eliana has been super helpful and flexible for helping us! Life’s been hectic and twice now she’s been able and willing to help with our cats on short notice. Obviously I’m not trying to do that regularly, but she’s been a godsend! We had our original pet sitter back out the day before we were going to leave the state, and Eliana was able to step in. She’s super friendly, and my cats like her. Would recommend!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Colonial Pine Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Colonial Pine Hills is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $26 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 November 2026, there are 126 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Colonial Pine Hills. 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 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 Colonial Pine Hills. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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.
