“Bre was able to step in last minute due to another sitter's cancelation. She was wonderful about having detailed check-ins complete with pictures of our cats. She won all three cats over and spent some time playing with them in addition to the basics of feeding/water/litter box.”
“I can confidently leave for work travel or vacation and know that Kara and her daughter will take excellent care of my pet while I’m away. Love the updates and photos!”
“Cara was great with my 2 cats. She checked in daily, left good daily reports and photos. When I returned the cats were happy and well taken care of.”
“Jennifer checked in on my cat during an extended vacation. She provided lots of pictures of the loving she provided my cat as well as making sure food/water/and litter box were good. Definitely would use her again in the future.”
“My kitties love Edyn, they were happy to play and get attention from her. My female cat can be pretty finicky on who she let's pet her, and Edyn is allowed to, so a big win.”
“Bethany was a phenomenal sitter for our two cats. We decided to go through Rover at the last minute and she responded and accepted within minutes, it really helped us out. Not only was she prompt with the request, but with every visit as well.”
“Katie is awesome! She was so flexible and helped me out when I was in a pinch and had to stay at work late. She's also fantastic with my dog Greta, and you can tell that she really has a great love for dogs. She is also very prompt to respond, and sent me some adorable shots of her and Greta having fun together. She'll”
“Bethany and Nathan were amazing! I would highly recommend for your pets! Bethany was very respectful, communicative, knowledgeable, and trustworthy! It’s always scary leaving your fur babies in others care, but she very reassuring mine was in good hands. Stella loved the time she got with them. Thank you so much for being a great sitter for Stella! :)”
“Our shy cat warmed up to her right away! She came by daily to give her some attention while we were on vacation & sent us pictures each drop in.”
“This is the second time I book with Victoria and will keep booking with her! She’s very responsable and more importantly very loving with my pets, thanks to her I can rest assure my pets will be okay while I’m away!!!”
“Chris communicated very well and made sure to keep us in the loop when taking care of our dogs. Very nice and kind person as well, as he took the courtesy to clean up our apartment afterwards, and that’s very generous of him. I would recommend him to anyone I know”
About: I have always had some type of animal present in my home growing up as a kid! My passion for animals led me to foster a few times and I loved every bit. I actually just moved here! I was thrilled to find out that this state/area was dog-friendly! I wake up early in the mornings and incorporate walks into my day-to-day life and I am able to assist emergency needs. I have a dog park in my neighborhood and it’s pretty walkable! Most to all dogs needs some form of exercise and I don’t mind a good hike or a walk in a bigger park! So much scenery to be seen! I am paranoid when it comes to some things so I would ask a ton of questions to make sure that I as the caretaker would be at ease and of course the owner and companion.
“Thank you for always being willing to go out of your way to meet my pets first and go over instructions in person! It helps reassure me my babies are in good hands!”
“Shabazz watched our two cats Willow and GusGus for a long weekend, and he is everything wonderful. With our meet and greet, he showed such patience and warmth towards our cats, and us too! Shabazz did an amazing job. I cannot be thankful enough because we came home to calm and happy cats.”
About: I have been working with dogs since I was 10 years old and started 4-H, I have shown dogs trained them and worked with animals my entire life. I worked for a breeder and helped care for a litter of 6 from birth to 8 weeks. Caring for animals is important to me and I want to create trusting relationships with my clients so they know their pet is in the best hands as I know I only wanted the same for my own pups. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. Because I create my own work hours, I’m able to plan my days around pet care and give pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s regular walks, check-ins, or overnight care, I enjoy building pet care into my routine and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I care for pets in my client’s home by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, safe, and secure while their owners are away. I prioritize feeding schedules, walks, playtime, exercise, medication instructions, and plenty of attention and companionship. I also treat every home respectfully and provide regular updates so pet parents can feel confident knowing their pets are being cared for with patience, reliability, and genuine compassion.
About: We cared for our late lab in his last journey to puppy heaven. After a bit of recovery time we adopted a rescue dog and named her Libby. She’s sweet and social with other dogs, she loves to have company and a playmate! We would love to help out in taking care of your pet while you vacation or if your pup just needs a quick visit and a walk and a cuddle in the middle of a long work day. We love dogs of all shapes and sizes and we are experienced with the additional time and gentle care necessary for older pups. Your dog will be spoiled with many walks, pets, treats, I(Leslie) currently work from home and am enjoying the freedom to manage my schedule as I see fit so with the exception of a few hours a day I am available for home visits that work with your work schedule. We are home every evening to care for your pet. With the exception of errands and a few social activities on the weekend, we are always around to give your pet attention. We wake up early for morning walks to receive plenty of exercise. If your pet is coming for a slumber party with Libby they will get 3 walks a day as well as access to a large fenced in backyard and a deck to sunbathe on. They will have a cozy memory foam bed to sleep in at night and snuggles from the dog lovers that they are staying with. We can administer medications as ordered and will have copious treats in stock. Our schedule is open except for a few hours in the middle of the weekdays. We wake up early for morning walks and feeding for our own fur baby. We have a fenced backyard and a friendly Australian cattle dog who loves to play with other dogs. She enjoys her walks to Good Neighbors for treats for her and her humans both. She also loves her runs at the off-leash section of Palmer Park. If your pup is staying with us we would discuss safety of having them off leash.
“We are so lucky to have found Tabbi and her family! Have used them several times now and I come home to a happy kitty and get lots of great pictures and updates when I’m gone. Thank you again for treating her like your own family.”
“Leandra does a fantastic job and is so caring and diligent about taking care of our pets. Either house-sitting or drop/ins — we have done both, and already have a repeat request for later this year. Thank you, Leandra!”
“Cara did a fine job of caring for our dog when we were out of town for 5 days. She is reliable and sent regular photos to update us. We will definitely use her again.”

Brianna gave the best care to my sweet Dale while I work overnights! I loved the pictures and updates of her visit. She offered great insight to adjusting to overnight shift work with a puppy! It’s very clear she has vast animal care experience. Thank you for caring for my boy, would happily book again 🤗
Katheryn is literally the best. She is sooooo good with my dogs (3) and you can tell genuinely cares about the pets she sits for. She is communicative, organized and dependable. Literally the best dog sitter in all of Colorado. I absolutely recommend her to anyone is the Colorado Springs area. THE BEST!!!
This is the first time we've left our dog at home when taking a trip so I was concerned Sadie wouldn't react well. Ann is amazing. Sadie seemed to love her and enjoy her walks. Received a picture every day. Came home to a happy dog. Would definitely use Ann again. Couldn't ask for a better experience for Sadie and myself.
Maria was amazing with our 3 dogs! Our regular sitters they have grown accustomed to over the years were not available and while our dogs are friendly, they have their specific quirks and needs. Maria adapted to them with ease and provided everything they needed while we were gone. It was a great relief to have someone we could trust and rely on providing such attentive care! Not only this, but she also picked up their poop from the yard every day and threw it out, left the house tidy, and collected the mound of packages we accrued over the week we were gone. Thank you so much, Maria!
We just moved back to the area and had to go out of town for the day. Katie made time to come by the house earlier in the week to meet the boys and ensure we felt comfortable with her dropping in to take care of them the day we'd be gone. She was amazing while here to take care of them, ensuring to send pics and letting us know how they were doing! Will definitely be using Katie moving forward for our sitting needs! 😊
Summer took such great care of Penny during her drop-in visits last week! 🐾 It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Penny was happy, well cared for, and clearly got lots of love and attention. Summer also went above and beyond by bringing in a few deliveries for us, which we really appreciated! We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust Summer with Penny again anytime. Highly recommend! 💛

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 Colorado Springs 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 Colorado Springs 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 Colorado Springs with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
