“Shannon watched our dogs for the first time last weekend on short notice and she was wonderful! Incredibly responsive, sent pictures of our doggies, and took them on walks and frequently let them out. Will definitely rely on her again soon!”
“Conrad was absolutely fabulous. Everyone was very happy and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and pictures were sent as requested. We will definitely be using Conrad’s services again in the near future.”
“Once again, Neva was awesome! Checked in daily, sent lots of pictures, and left my house in great shape. And, it was my pup’s bday and she made it special with a pup cup! Would highly recommend!!”
“Very attentive and caring. Came over to my apartment for a meet and greet, followed through on thorough directions, and my pup is always happy when she’s coming and tired from playing! Highly recommend.”
“Kyle was fantastic with Charlie! Charlie is a high-energy dog, and Kyle did an amazing job keeping up with her and making sure she was happy and well cared for while I was away. I received tons of adorable photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Charlie was having a great time and getting plenty of attention and exercise. I came home to a happy pup, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kyle again. Highly recommend!”
“Dale is wonderful! She’s so caring and conscientious. Our dogs loved spending time with her. We felt so comfortable leaving them in her care and confident they would be well taken care of. If we lived in Denver (we were visiting), she would definitely be our regular ‘go to’ dog care person.”
“Carissa takes such great care of my two beagles and my home while I am away. She takes great photos too! Gives me peace of mind that they are safe, happy, and loved. Thank you Carissa!”
“Sabrina is very responsive and kept me updated on her stay with Odin. He can be a little skittish with new people, but warmed up to Sabrina almost immediately. At the end of the weekend, Sabrina left the house cleaner than when she arrived and I came home to a happy puppy!”
“This is the second weekend Haley has taken care of Coco for us. Coco isn’t always the friendliest but that didn’t scare Haley off, lol. Highly recommend!”
“Melissa takes extra special care of our 11+ year old dog Kana. He’s peculiar and untrusting and by the end of her first day she sent me a pictures of him loving life! I would highly recommend Melissa. She’s attentive, tidy and super reliable.”
“Ian is so communicative and sends daily pictures. He takes great care of our old pup who gets lots of meds and it’s not easy to get them down. We highly recommend Ian!”
“We have so much appreciation for Ben for letting us feel at ease while we were away for 5 days! He had excellent communication and our dog Rosie seemed to love him! We’ll be using him again our next trip!”
“Liv was absolutely incredible when she house sat for me!!! She was so flexible with a short notice booking, communicated throughout the day with updates and tons of photos that made me feel confident Pudge was in exceptionally capable and caring hands 😊 it definitely put me at ease needing to leave quickly for the weekend. If your are looking for a sitter, I cannot recommend Liv enough!!! Pudge is already looking forward to another visit with his new friend 🥰”
About: Hello! I am a huge animal lover and can’t wait to spend time with your pet! I have experience working with senior animals and understand the patience some may require. I also am comfortable caring for dogs with disabilities, and have experience working with dogs with mobility issues or who may need medication administered. I have watched and walked countless dogs (and cats!) of friends, coworkers, and family over the years and I’m thrilled to add your dog to the list. I understand how important it is to trust the person watching your babies, so I’m happy to chat and answer any questions! I work from home M-F 9am-5pm with a lot of flexibility. Depending on location, I can make a lot of time slots work and I’m happy to work with your schedule. I want to make sure your dog is comfortable and trusts me. I will ensure that I approach your dog with the energy they need to feel safe and I can have patience for pups that need a little time to warm up.
“Revann was great! She communicated well and provided plenty of updates. She took such good care of the house and our dog! ?I absolutely recommend Revann to others and would love to have her watch Dempsey again.”
About: Growing up in a foster home for rescue dogs gave me an early, hands-on masterclass in canine behavior. I learned how to read subtle body language, manage varied temperaments, and care for dogs with unique needs—from anxious pups needing extra patience to high-energy rescues requiring clear structure. That experience, combined with over 20 years of personal dog ownership, means your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are second nature to me. My calendar is completely wide open, meaning your dog will have my full, undivided attention throughout their entire stay. Because I live alone, there are no extra roommates or chaotic schedules to worry about—just a quiet, peaceful environment tailored entirely to your pet’s needs. I’m an avid outdoors lover and love staying active, so you can count on your dog getting plenty of fresh air, energetic play, and quality exercise. Best of all, I live just one mile from Cheesman Park, making daily strolls, long walks, and fun park outings a effortless part of our regular routine! Your dog’s safety and well-being are my absolute top priorities, and every aspect of my home and routine is tailored to keep them secure. Having grown up in a rescue foster home and managed dogs of all temperaments for over two decades, I have a sharp eye for potential hazards, subtle stress cues, and unpredictable behavior before it turns into a problem. Because I live alone in a quiet household without the chaos of roommates or unpredictable visitors, I can maintain complete, undivided supervision over your pet at all times. Whether we are relaxing at home or out on a walk, you can rest easy knowing your dog is in exceptionally vigilant, experienced hands.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Denver
Stop looking and book Michael! You won’t find a better person to take care of your pups! We had another dog sitter cancel the week before our trip, and we are SO grateful we found Michael. Despite the short notice, he made time to meet our dogs beforehand, and they absolutely loved him. Michael was an incredible communicator throughout the entire process. He stayed at our house and somehow left it even better than he found it! He sent us daily updates, shared the most adorable pictures, kept us in the loop on everything the dogs were up to, and let us know if anything came up with the house. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were in such good hands while we were away. We could tell they were happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of love and attention. We genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Michael went above and beyond, and we’ll absolutely be booking him again for our next trip. Cannot recommend him enough!
alex did the best job possible in watching our girl lilah while we were out of town! she is kind, dependable, and has great communication. we never worried once during our long 10 days out of the country because we knew our dog was in such good hands! she treated our space with great care and lilah was so happy when we got home - we could tell she was well loved while we were gone. thank you so much alex!!!
Melissa was amazing. It was my first time leaving my dog with somebody new in over two years, so I was extremely anxious about it, but she was incredible. Very communicative, sent pictures and videos all night, and was just very kind, professional, and understanding. 5/5 recommend!!! 🫶🏼🙏🏼
Sammy stayed with our furbabies (a dog and 2 cats) and sent us daily photos and updates which made our time away much less stressful. Our furbabies seemed well cared for and the home was left neat and clean. Definitely happy with our selection and will not hesitate to book Sammy again!
Mary has been so amazing with my high energy herder. She is so considerate of his needs, a great communicator, and my dog was immediately comfortable when he met her. If he gets out of his routine for a few days, he can be a bit neurotic, but both times Mary’s watched him, I’ve come home to a centered and happy dog. That’s no small feat, and I can’t recommend Mary enough!!
Danielle for the win! I had to pivot and find a sitter at the last minute, and she stepped right up and came in clutch. She was an absolute delight, and I could tell right away that Osa (my energetic pup) and Doc (my cat) felt comfortable with her. She kept me in the loop the whole time, so I could actually relax on my trip. Would absolutely book her again!
Kelsey was amazing! She stayed in our home with Charlie while we were away for a long weekend. She’s the first Rover sitter we’ve ever had stay in our home, and she set a high bar! She came over beforehand for a meet-and-greet and asked such great questions, so we knew she was prepared. She was communicative throughout. And she left our house in such great condition for when we got home. She also followed-up afterward with some helpful notes and feedback from the weekend. We’d absolutely book Kelsey again!
Aleah did a wonderful job caring for my boxer pup while I was away for work… She asked great questions during our meet and greet, was communicative throughout, got him plenty of exercise, sent adorable photos, and left my place very clean. I will definitely be booking w. Aleah again for future trips!
Julie is fantastic! It was the first time she had sat for my kitty and he was being *super* finicky about his food, I had even taken him to the vet to see why he wasn't eating. She was very patient (with me and my kitty) and tried different combinations of foods and was able to get him to eat. She also had to administer meds, which is generally not much fun to do with cats - she got it done. I can always tell by his coat and his demeanor when I get home if he was well cared for - he was doing great! So I know he liked Julie and she took great care of him. Thank you Lady!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Denver is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $87 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 8,818 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Denver. 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 Denver 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 Denver 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 Denver 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Denver. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
