“Kaedon did a great job from start to finish. Great communication, came by for a meet and greet. Great communication when we were gone and even dealt with some separation anxiety with our youngest dog. Dogs and house both look great and seem to be well taken care of. Thank you and won’t hesitate to refer you to others and to also reach out with any needs in the future. Thank you again!!”
“We greatly appreciated how well Lily took care of our Chex!! She communicated and sent pics regularly which put our minds at ease. And it’s clear Chex liked her and was comfortable as she clearly ate while we were gone (it’s not uncommon for us to come back with a skinny girl from refusing to eat). Also, Lily left our house clean which was greatly appreciated!! We will definitely book with Lily again!”
“Brianne asked questions during our meet and greet to make sure she understood everything my dogs needed. She was patient with my little shy guy, who didn't take long to warm up to her and she was patient with my little old man's needs as well. I appreciated Brianne's frequent pictures and updates. :)”

“Nicole got 2 paws up from our girls, and 2 thumbs up from us! What a great job she did with them. Neither dogs are used to us being away very often, and are stage 5 clingers.. one has a chronic disease and requires multiple medications as well. After meeting Nicole we felt immediate reassurance. The dogs both loved her instantly. She stayed at our house and sent us lots of photos during our trip. We have already booked her for our next adventure.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Colorado Springs
After a sudden death in the family I needed a dog sitter ASAP to travel for funeral arrangements and Leilani was everything I needed! Responsive and responsible, it was such a relief knowing my dog was in good hands over the weekend. She handled my big 100lb mastiff wonderfully and my dog loved her. Would definitely book again!
Kaedon was amazing! My cat loved him very much and didn’t take long for her to warm up to him. He was very attentive and took great care of her. He kept up with her feeding and medication. He sent me pictures and updates everyday! I would love to rebook with him for all future vacations! :)
Rachel took wonderful care of our two dogs while staying at our home during our vacation, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! She was communicative, dependable, and treated both our dogs and our home with great care and respect. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups and had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. We would absolutely book Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional house sitter and dog caregiver!
Alexis stayed in our home while we were away vacationing for the past week. She took amazing care of our dog and 2 cats while we were gone. It was kind of amazing, actually - every time I thought, “I wonder how the pets and Alexis are doing,” I’d get an update from her within the hour! Needless to say, Alexis is a pro, and our trip was stress-free. The furry beasts were well cared for while we were away. Thanks Alexis!
Annika did absolutely amazing with our semi-complicated dogs, one of which is still a puppy! She helped our older dog stay calm and happy during fireworks and even gave up her 4th of July to stay with them. We came home to happy dogs, a clean home, and I swear my puppy is better behaved after having been with her. Will definitely be asking her to watch our dogs again. Thanks for going above and beyond Annika!
I cannot see enough good things about Janelle!! my Anya loved her, and I was so comfortable while I was away for a whole week. Janelle kept me updated on Anya’s status. I could not have been more please! My pup had never stayed with anyone outside the family before and I was very anxious, but Janelle really made it a great experience and I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation. I would not hesitate to rebook her again when the time is right. The best part was that she came and met Anya before, so Anya would get to know her.. Janelle was pleasant kind, and reassuring with myself and my puppy dog. Janelle puppy at my dog at home and my house was perfect upon my arrival back home.. kudos kudos kudos to Janelle.

FAQs for House Sitting - Colorado Springs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Colorado Springs on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,302 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Colorado Springs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
Tip: 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
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
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
