“Sarah is amazing to work with and loves my babies the way they need. We have a deaf dog and a cantakerous old lady in our herd and Sarah has handled them with great care. She’s very communicative and invested in the well being of your babies. Highly recommend.”
“Emily was great and flexible being able to watch our pups last minute! She left detailed report cards and made it easy for us to enjoy our getaway! Would absolutely book again.”
“Miranda is the best pet sitter we've had to date. Super helpful and communicative and went above and beyond for us when we went out of state on vacation for two weeks. We got lots of cute photos of our cats and plenty of updates :)”
“Cats loved her after a few days and were fed as planned. I was to communicate as needed and received good responses and an update every visit!”
About: With over 20 years of pet care experience and a background as a veterinary technician, your pet is in good hands with me. I am comfortable in medicine administration and ensure your pet stays safe, healthy, and stress-free while you are away. I have an open schedule in the summer, so I am able to spend quality time with your pet while you are away. I live a block from Bear Creek dog park and love to take dogs on walks multiple times throughout the day. Safety is my absolute priority. I maintain a structured, low stress environment, to ensure my two older children, my friendly resident cat, and your pet all coexist safely. My cat has a dedicated safe zone blocked off from guest pets if needed. My children are highly trained around animals and all interactions are 100% supervised.
“Allie was so sweet and helpful! It was a last minute trip and she was able to squeeze Jose in! He loved all the cuddles and the picture updates were amazing. Thank you!!”
“Briana is fantastic! Pets loved seeing her and she left detailed messages with how they were doing and tons of pics! Will definitely book her again”
“Heidi was fantastic! She communicated well and took the best pictures of my 2 cats. I had to book last minute and she was very nice about it and was even able to stay an extra day when my flight was canceled. She took excellent care of the pets and the home. If I ever need to get a pet sitter again I will be using Heidi if she's available!”
“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 🤗”
“Courtney was great with our dog. He was alive and happy when we got home. He was well taken care of and didn’t chew up our house. She sent pictures and let us know how he was doing.”
“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.”
“Talon was amazing. We had another pup sitter schedule but they backed out a week before our vacation. Talon stepped in and was perfect, sent us photos and updates daily, and kept our house safe and locked up just like we asked. Definitely going to reach out again the next time we need. Thank you Talon!”
“Bethany takes great care to go the extra effort and ensure your pup is not only cared for, but loved. My pup was new to being without us but Bethany’s kindness and attention to her emboldened us all. It’s a relief to know that with all the things to worry about when traveling, whether my pup is cared for is not one of them. I’d have Bethany watch my pup anytime.”
“Ysa was amazing with my Kitty. It's a very nerve racking thing to leave your baby home and give a stranger access to your home when you're not there, but Ysa was great. I felt comfortable with her and she took great care of my Rose. It really shows that she cares for animals and finds joy being around them. I will definitely be requesting Ysa again :)”
“Karen was professional and communicative in her interaction with us. She was respectful of our house and attentive to our Guinea pigs’ needs!”
“Adrienne is prompt and sweet with our pups. I knew I could trust she was on time with her check ins and I felt comfortable knowing she was caring for them while we were out of town.”
“Greg accepted our new booking request for drop-ins almost immediately after we came back from a week long vacation where he watched our 2 dogs. He is trustworthy, communicative and kind. I highly recommend him.”
“Lexie was incredible! Our elderly cat is very shy and runs away from most strangers. By the end of the week, she was asking Lexie for belly rubs! Lexie spent a lot of time with her each day, made sure she got all of her medication, and did an excellent job communicating with us the whole time. She even took care of my plants, including several trays of tomato and pepper starts, and everything was thriving when we came home. We will definitely be using Lexie again!”
About: I have been dog sitting since I was 11! I have dog sat for many families: I began dog walking and doing overnights for the neighbors around me and my name was eventually passed around to their friends and family. I have experience with overnights, dog walking, feeding, grooming, and drop-ins. I am very reliable and committed to keeping your pet happy and healthy! I have a very flexible schedule this summer! I am working a part-time job at Colorado College and usually have 2 hour shifts. I would be able to check on your pet every 2 hours if needed! I am also in town for the foreseeable future so can do longer overnight pet sitting! In clients’ homes I never remove the pet from where they are most comfortable and try not to take over their space. I listen to their needs and try to make my presence as calming as possible in their home.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Colorado Springs is $20

Talon was amazing. We had another pup sitter schedule but they backed out a week before our vacation. Talon stepped in and was perfect, sent us photos and updates daily, and kept our house safe and locked up just like we asked. Definitely going to reach out again the next time we need. Thank you Talon!
Brianne was absolutely wonderful! She took the time to do a meet-and-greet beforehand, asked thoughtful questions, and made sure she understood our routine and our puppy’s needs. Our 6-month-old Bernese Mountain Dog is full of energy, so it gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such capable hands. We hope to book Brianne again soon

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!
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 .
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Colorado Springs. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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.
