“Quinn was great and did very well house sitting with my two dogs for a night. Quinn was responsive, provided updates and sent pictures of the dogs. We’ll definitely book with Quinn again.”
“Came home to two happy pups. Jamie is great with our dogs (one a puppy) despite them being a little difficult when together. She updates us with pictures, communicates clearly, and is respectful of our house. Thank you, Jamie!”
“Hanui was incredible with our pup. She made sure that Maple was well taken care of, provided regular updates and genuinely seemed to enjoy hanging out with her. You can tell she truly loves being around dogs. We will for sure look to work with Hanui again in the future.”
“Dawn was a wonderful dog and house sitter for me. She communicated frequently and left the house spotless. Pups were given lots of love and cuddles. Thank you!”
“Thank you for taking such good care of Roy! I really appreciated the daily communication and pictures. I could tell that he was happy and having fun with you at my house. I'm going to have to step up by fetch game otherwise you'll be his favorite human! Ha! Roy is such a homebody so it was nice to enjoy my vacation and not worry that he was at a kennel wondering if I left him or getting really sick like he had in the past. I have and will continue to recommend your services!”
“Edyn was a wonderful Rover for my 6 yr old mini Schauzer. In fact, we've booked her again already. She's very prompt, sent photos and updates, and clearly loves dogs. Highly recommended”
“Brianne took fantastic care of our two dogs! She was very thorough and extremely communicative. Our senior dog takes several meds and she was careful to confirm when he took them. Brianne also sent plenty of photos and updates so I felt informed. We'd happily have Brianne back to take care of the boys! Thank you!”
“This is our second time using Nicole. She was awesome once again! The dogs are so well cared for and loved. We appreciate that she keeps us in the loop and shares photos multiple times a day. She is definitely our go to for keeping the girls!”
“Bre does an excellent job. Our dogs love her! She’s very thorough and timely. I feel very comfortable knowing she’s taking care of our pups. I highly recommend her.”
“Alyissia did a wonderful job with our dog, and was a tremendous help in a sudden last minute crunch when we needed someone to sit with our dog. I am so grateful to have found her!”
“Zeah was amazing! She was so communicative and made sure to send lots of pictures and videos of our fur babies! She was so flexible and easy to work with. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Rycheigh, did a great job keeping me informed through my time away. He left my house, looking great. He clearly not only took care of my pups, but my house as well. I look forward to having Rycheigh stay with Mia and Kirby in the future.”
“Cassidy took amazing care of my dog Orion while we were out of the country, and was very flexible to accommodate a last minute request. She provided great updates and communication throughout our trip and was such a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend Cassidy if you need someone to look after your pets!”
“Talon was a great dog and cat sitter for us for an overnight stay! Our dog is very high energy and requires a lot of training and playing throughout the day. Talon did a great job of taking care of him and also provided super detailed notes and photos/videos during his stay. He was also great with our elderly cat.”
“Maria exceeded my expectations by far! We rescued our dog, Murray, not long ago and he has bonded very closely with me, and I was worried about leaving him. We scheduled a few drop-ins with Maria prior to our 8-day vacation so that he could get to know her just a little bit before our trip. She was great with him from day 1. She kept us updated with messages and photos daily and he seemed very relaxed and happy. She also took excellent care of our home, bringing in mail and packages, watering plants, keeping things tidy. She also noticed we were low on milk and replaced it with a new container, so we'd have it upon returning. And she laundered the sheets and towels before leaving! I would highly recommend Maria if you are looking for a phenomenal pet sitter! We will definitely book with her again. Thank you Maria!!”
“Alexe took great care of my dog Nova! She was so kind, professional, communicated with me throughout her time with Nova, and sent pictures. I highly recommend her to anyone needing someone for their pet care! Thank you again!!!”
“Brittany watched our dog with 1 day notice after a last minute trip came up. I’m so thankful for Brittany helping when we needed it! She took great care of my husky, and called me to notify me when he was sick to ask what to do. Thank you so much Brittany!!”
“Dora was great with our pets. She is a fabulous communicator, sent pictures daily, and was an exceptional house / pet sitter!! 10/10 would recommend, and we’ve already booked her for our next trip!”
“Debbie was absolutely amazing with our two girls, Lucy and Rumi! We were nervous going into this booking because Lucy takes a while to warm up to new people and tends to be anxious/vocal at first but Debbie was so patient and consistent with her that by the end of the stay, Lucy had gone from barking and hiding in the bedroom to a completely zero-bark day, letting Debbie scratch her ears and even walk her on leash. That kind of progress with an anxious dog speaks volumes about how gentle and attentive Debbie is. Rumi, our happy-go-lucky girl, was Debbie's shadow the whole time and clearly felt right at home with her too. Debbie sent detailed updates and photos after every visit, went above and beyond by offering to stay overnight so the girls wouldn't be alone for too long, and even left lights on for us before she left in case we got home after dark. Little touches like that show she genuinely cares. We came home to two happy, relaxed dogs and total peace of mind. Debbie made it possible for us to enjoy our trip without worrying, and we'll absolutely be booking her again. Highly, highly recommend!”

I would give Erin more than five stars if I could. Erin took great care of our pup and our home while we were out of the country. She made sure to find out how often we wanted updates and followed through with photos and fun notes about how things were going. Our dog got lots of attention and exercise throughout the stay and our house looked absolutely perfect when we got home. Knowing Erin was taking care of everything allowed us to simply enjoy our trip with no worries!
I would highly recommend Cassie for dog sitting. She was respectful of our home and left it neat and clean. Cassie checked in before leaving the last day. She was responsive to me while I was away. She sent pictures of my pups each day. When I got home my pups were happy. Thanks Cassie!
Kyla was great!! She took care of my 2 dogs and cat. I was a little nervous to leave my dog since he is old and blind but Kyla took amazing care of him! She made sure to check in everyday and even sent pictures. When I go out of town again I will definitely ask Kyla if she is available to watch them again!
Rachel was amazing and took great care of the dogs. She took them on multiple walks everyday and kept me updated with lots of pictures. She also took great care of the house. I will definitely be booking Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.
Thank you for taking such good care of Roy! I really appreciated the daily communication and pictures. I could tell that he was happy and having fun with you at my house. I'm going to have to step up by fetch game otherwise you'll be his favorite human! Ha! Roy is such a homebody so it was nice to enjoy my vacation and not worry that he was at a kennel wondering if I left him or getting really sick like he had in the past.

Cassidy took amazing care of my dog Orion while we were out of the country, and was very flexible to accommodate a last minute request. She provided great updates and communication throughout our trip and was such a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend Cassidy if you need someone to look after your pets!
Alexis was so great and so communicative. I was out of the country for the first time since getting Toad and was nervous, but it was immediately clear Toad was in great hands! Toad was calm and happy when I got back so I know he had a great time. She also went above and beyond with my house - I'm pretty sure it was cleaner when I came back than when I left!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Colorado Springs walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Colorado Springs maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
