About: Dogs are part of my everyday life, and I have hands-on experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, senior dogs, and multi-dog households. I’m comfortable adjusting care to the individual dog rather than expecting every dog to fit the same routine. I’m experienced with puppy care, including frequent potty breaks, crate routines, feeding schedules, supervision, and reinforcing the training owners are already working on. I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs that may need a slower pace, extra patience, more frequent breaks, or a very consistent routine. I can administer medications and give injections when provided with clear instructions. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding and medication schedules and understand how important consistency can be for dogs that require ongoing care. I pay close attention to changes in appetite, energy, bathroom habits, behavior, and overall comfort. If something seems unusual, I don’t brush it off. My goal is for owners to come home to a dog who has been safe, comfortable, and cared for according to their normal routine. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be present throughout the day. I can easily accommodate regular potty breaks, walks, feeding schedules, medications, playtime, and extra attention for dogs that do better with more frequent supervision. Because I’m home much of the day, pets are not typically left alone for long stretches. I’m also able to adjust my routine around puppies, senior dogs, or pets that need a more structured schedule. Safety and routine come first. In my home, dogs are supervised, doors and gates are checked carefully, and introductions to other dogs are handled slowly rather than assuming every dog will immediately get along. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and I can separate dogs for feeding, rest, or quiet time when needed. I follow each owner’s instructions for meals, medications, crate routines, walks, sleeping arrangements, and house rules so their dog’s routine stays as familiar as possible. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs that need medications or injections. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home. I keep doors and gates secure, follow the care instructions provided, clean up after the pet, and pay attention to changes in behavior, appetite, bathroom habits, or comfort. If something seems unusual, I communicate with the owner rather than guessing.

About: Hi I'm Tori! I've been working closely and training with dogs for the better part of 8 years. When I first started working with dogs, I walked packs of 8-10 dogs off leash in San Francisco parks! I'm solely based in positive (R+) reinforcement training and love to help owners build their best relationships with their beloved pups! I am currently based in Colorado Springs. I'm familiar with great dog-friendly trails and have worked with all kinds of dogs (temperaments, age, and sizes)! I have a dog friendly home in Old Colorado City. I do have a safe fenced in backyard. I always do "meet and greets" before boarding or training any dog. If I stay at the dog owners' home, I stick to the dogs normal schedule/routine and make sure their home and pup is better than I found it! I'm trained in understanding dog's needs and being hyper aware of my environment to ensure safety of the dog I'm watching/walking! I hope to meet your beloved pup soon! Please reach out with any inquiries or questions! I’m very flexible for my clients needs! I do not have any pets of my own and am gone less than 6 hours a day, if I am gone at all. I always try to stick to the dogs normal routine and care! My home has no other pets and I am very experienced in walking, training, and sitting at my home and pet owners homes!

About: Hello:) My name is Brylee. I live with two doggos myself, and love animals. I've had family pets growing up, and was always the designated pet sitter. I understand what an addition any beloved pet is, and am excited to get the opportunity to take care of your sweet addition! I work full time Monday through Friday, however I have one hour lunches if I needed to do checkups, and am available on weekends if needed. I live in a condo, with very friendly neighbors, most of whom have pets as well. My roommate and I love taking our dogs to the dog park, or cherry creek, letting them enjoy beautiful Colorado.

About: I personally have 5 dogs of my own (ages 10-5, various sizes 90-18lbs) and have two cats as well. (Ages 10 & 1). I have experience with puppies, kittens and elder pets as well. I have worked as veterinary assistant for over 6 years now, and am comfortable with most things involving pet care. I'm currently free most days after dealing with some health issues, but am ready to get back out there. So my schedule currently is wide open. I am more than comfortable walking any size or age dog. I'm pretty confident in my experience with dogs to understand them and what needs they may have.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
