“Mario is great! Our dogs are pretty aloof and one stuck by his side during his lunch time drop in. He communicated well, and we would use him again!”
“Olivia was absolutely wonderful, especially for helping me on such short notice! She kept me updated throughout, which gave me so much peace of mind, and Max absolutely loved her. I would definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again!”
About: I have appreciated all animals since childhood. I own a puppy named Kira. We enjoy hiking, playing with her toys and, of course, taking walks. I have had her since she was six weeks old. About three years ago, we chose to add a sibling. Her name is Mouse! She is a Siamese cat we adopted at six weeks old. They have been inseparable since she arrived. Training has occurred off and on for years. I conduct leash work both on and off the lead. Basic puppy training includes potty training, sit, and lay down commands. I also practice staying or enough, and the go ahead cues. I work with them to avoid pulling on a leash and to slow their intake of food or water. I would like to learn more about training for deaf or blind animals. I actually just moved back to Colorado after six years so I’m trying to slowly get on my feet. I’m usually free most days. My schedule is usually potty and breakfast never in the same order depending on the day! Loves dog parks, hikes, water, and long car rides with the windows down. Cuddles are the best; it might turn into a nap😁. Love to end our day with a good walk to get the last of the energy out for the day! Love to end the night with a good dinner and some tv time. Oh and don’t forget the cuddles and warm blankets 🥰 I want to make sure they have water and food. A cool place to be and a way out to do there business. I would treat them the way I would want my fur baby to be taken care of if I’m away from home. Not great with words but great with proving my worth as a worker!

“Dora took care of my kitties like they were her own! She was great when it came to communication and sending cute pictures. I recommend using Dora for drop in visits, and would book her again!”
“Kathryn was absolutely wonderful with Penny! She did drop-in visits while we were at work and gave Penny so much love and attention. She was reliable, kind, and clearly experienced with puppies—Penny loved her right away. I really appreciated the updates and the care she took during her visit. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Penny was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and dependable sitter!”

About: I am new to Rover, but not new to pet sitting! I have taken care of many adult dogs and cats. I have not officially called myself a pet sitter until now that I am on this website. I recently dog-sat for a dog who acted aggressively toward other dogs on our walks. I adjusted our walks to accommodate this issue. I am not intimidated by insects, as I have kept antlion larvae as pets and released them when they reached maturity. I work hard to meet the owner's expectations, and I especially love dogs! I am a physically active person. I work as a teacher during a typical work week, but I can spend nights dog-sitting on these nights too. My weekends are more flexible according to what you may need. I can take care of pets at your home as well as overnights, and I can take them for walks. I can make schedule adjustments based on your needs or your pets needs.
“Sydney is amazing with our pups! Makes sure that both of their needs are met and gives them lots of love. They pics she sends are great, both dogs look super happy that she’s there!”
About: Experience with training puppies and adults. Patience and kindness with all animals. Expect me to be shy with humans and great with animals! Love to meet your family member. Hi. I have a lot of availability!! I am an artist and small business owner with a very self built schedule. Could be available for both routine regular visits and sporadic care needs. I currently have a wonderful disabled staffy and two wild kids. So I will be focusing on care in your home. I'm a Colorado Springs born and raised, animal loving introvert who can imagine nothing better than hanging out with cats and dogs (and frankly basically any animal) I might have colorful hair but I am a consummate professional, healthcare worker and animal lover.
“Emily did a great job in her drop in visit with our dog. We received pictures and information about how he was doing. She followed all of our instructions. Thanks Emily!”
About: I am a life-long animal lover and have been pet sitting and taking care of fur babies for as long as I can remember!

“Shabazz was absolutely wonderful taking care of our cat while we were away! He was extremely reliable, followed all feeding and care instructions, and sent the cutest photo updates and detailed notes during every visit. Shabazz went above and beyond and i could tell my kitty was a happy kitty. I definitely recommend him and will book again!”

Jessi was amazing with my dogs they had some special issues of health and behavior that she handled superbly she's warm and caring efficient and truly took the time to make them feel comfortable while I was gone I hope to book with her in the near future. Thank you Jessi.
I had to share my appreciation for Christian’s exceptional service. Booking with him has been completely stress free, and my German Shepard absolutely loves him. Christian’s communication is top-notch, so I never have to worry about how things are going at home while I’m away. I initially had hesitations about finding the right fit for my dog, but Christian has proven to a genuine, caring, and lighthearted person. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my pup the way I trust him!
Very accommodating to my dogs needs and was able to do a meet and greet before our first booking to make sure the dog was comfortable. She took notes during the meet and greet on specifics for my dog and seems genuinely caring and kind. Looking forward to working with her again!
Miranda was great! She came to let our dog out and play with him; he loved her! She even came super early in the morning before having to be at work. It's obvious that she loves animals and spending time with them. Loved her updates. We look forward to having her back soon!
Amber was wonderful and took such great care of our dogs while we traveled out of state. She took extra time and care to make sure they were able to get outside for walks and have plenty of playtime, and even very kindly helped clean up an unfortunate accident. We couldn’t be more appreciative of the care she gave our boys while we were away. We felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend Amber!
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
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.

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.
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 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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
