About: I've had a special bond with dogs my whole life, and have fallen in love with every dog that's come my way. I currently have two dogs back home with high energy levels. Growing up I've always been responsible for taking care of them, like going for walks, and assisting and training a service dog. I miss having furry friends around so I've been spending lots of time at the humane society. I go on daily walks and would love a furry companion to keep me company and get the zoomies out together. I'm currently a full-time college student who has lots of flexible hours. When I'm not in school or studying I spend my time walking around town, going to local trails, and climbing trees! Information I would like to know: what you allow and don't allow your dogs to do on walks. What kind of exercise does your dog like (running, playing catch)? Do they interact well with other dogs? Any other information I need to know to properly care for your dog?
“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my cat Wily. Brooke sent me updates and photos, and I really appreciated knowing he was being well taken care of. Brooke also left my house clean which was great.”
“Billie was great and took great care of my two kittens! She also watered my indoor and outdoor plants and feed my birds. Billie vacuumed and cleaned as needed and the communication was perfect! I will use Billie again on my next trip next month.”
“Matt is amazing! We have a high energy cat and he worked really hard to make sure that he got the love and activity he needed during our time out of town. Will 100% rebook”
“We had to make a last minute booking and I’m so glad we found Mariah. She was great with our three kitties. She followed all our instructions and sent updates and pictures twice a day every day. We’d happily book her again.”
About: I have a range of experience with different dog breeds, ages, and sizes. I utilize an empathetic approach to pet care, adapting to the specific needs and personality of your pet. As I grew up around animals, I understand and respect the special relationships we form with our furry friends. I am excited to meet your pet! Originally from Texas, I am an educator and I love animals. I love to be active and build relationships, which makes pet care the perfect side gig. I feed, walk, play with and accompany pets in their homes. Depending on the personality of the pet, time spent playing or chilling varies. I enjoy getting to know the characters of each pet, as they are all unique, just like us.
About: Passionate about both pets and the environment. I’ve been taking care of my own dogs and cat for the past few years, with my schoolwork, and now I’m currently studying in Environmental Sciences at Fort Lewis. I have three awesome pets. Lady, my 4 year old cattledog. Loyal, cuddly, and loves to play! She's less energetic now but still loves her toys. She loves to lounge around and keep company. Rudy, my 1.5 year old Dachshund. Small in size but BIG on personality! He’s a curious and very energetic. Lasty, Otis, my 3 year old tabby cat. He’s loves to eat and sleep A LOT. He’s very respectful of the dogs and loves watching birds from the window. 😺 Balancing school and taking care of my pets has taught me how to manage different personalities and different care schedules. As someone studying Environmental Science, I’m also committed to eco friendly practices, like using sustainable pet care products and minimizing waste, which I believe is important for the health of both our pets and the planet. I look forward to providing loving and reliable care for your pets, just as I do for my own!😺❤️🐶 I’m currently not working, so I have lots of time and flexibility to care for your pets! I’m available for drop in's, and walks throughout the week and weekends. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and giving them the attention they need. I always treat pets like they’re part of the family! I make sure they’re safe, comfy, and happy, whether I’m watching them at your place or mine. I follow any instructions you give me and keep everything clean and calm. I’ll also send you updates and pictures so you know they’re doing well.
“Trista stayed with my young, sociable cat on short notice for 5 nights. She was communicative and responsive. Trista took care of my space and left it just as she found it -- including washing the sheets on the bed. I came home to a happy and well-cared for kitty. I wholeheartedly recommend Trista as a pet sitter. Thanks Trista!”
“Deanne was so wonderful! She spent such good quality time with our kitty while we were gone and sent us updates everyday. She followed all the instructions to the letter and was super easy to communicate with. We will definitely use Deanne again when she’s available!”
About: Hi! My name is Jake. I grew up in a house full of pets and have taken care of them for as long as I can remember. I work full time at Fort Lewis, so I am completely available after 4 pm Monday through Friday with an hour during the day for walk breaks. During the weekend I can be fully available. I am available for any type of house sitting! Whether it be a quick midday walk or week-long stay, I am there to keep your pets comfortable in their home environment, on their schedule.
About: I’ve taken care of my own as well as close relative’s pets (cats, dogs, horses, chickens) numerous times. My friend owns 5 cats and each one enjoys my company. I work mornings at my primary job, but after 1 pm, I’m free to begin any services. Two days during the week, I can provide services in the morning as well! I would really like to add a fur buddy or two to my outside time! I’m pretty good with following steps and routines. My friends and family relatives trust me entering their homes and caring for their pets, I’m hoping to be given opportunities to get to know your pets!
About: Hello fellow dog lovers! With over 20 years of experience owning and caring for dogs, I understand the deep bond between humans and their furry companions. Although I cannot host pets in my rental overnight, I’d love to take your dog for a walk or house sit where they feel most comfortable- your home! I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to provide care both during and outside of regular business hours. Whether it’s a midday walk, evening playtime or weekend adventure, I’m here to ensure your dog receives the attention, love and exercise they deserve. If you book me for pet sitting in your home, you can feel at ease knowing that I will respect your space and make it a goal of mine to leave your space as clean as you left it. Let’s connect and discuss how I can offer your dog the right care and attention to make you feel comfortable when you can’t be with them. I look forward to meeting you and your pups! I work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule! I can provide pet services within or outside of regular business hours- let’s discuss your pets needs and I can likely fit them in to my schedule, no problem! I love clients who offer detailed lists of their pets needs and daily routines! I used to do the same with my dog and know that following something like this gives everyone involved (dogs included!) ease of mind.
About: Household pets have been a part of my life since childhood, and I have cared for pets of my own, primarily cats and dogs, throughout my adult life as well. My partner and I have two dogs of our own that we adopted from the LPC Humane Society and they are our fur babies. I know from personal experience what it's like to need assurance that your pet is being well cared for and in good hands, and I'm happy to give you that same peace of mind. I currently work from home full time and have a fairly flexible schedule that I can adapt on a weekly basis depending on what's on my calendar. I typically am most easily available morning, mid-day, and evenings for drop-ins or walks. I have two dogs of my own currently and I have been a pet owner for most of my adult life, primarily caring for cats and dogs. I'm plenty familiar with the routines of pet care and understand that your pets will have their own unique care needs and personality quirks. I'm happy to take your pup on a walk and I'm familiar with many of the good trails in town.
About: I have adored all animlas my whole life and have always enjoyed taking care of them. I have started dog walking with a senior dog when I was 13 and I am hoping to get back into it! I have also taken care of other furry friends for my loved ones and friends throughout the years. I'm currently a part-time student with a part time job, so I will have plenty of time to hang out with your furry family members! I have open avaliability Thursday-Sunday with evening avaliability Monday-Wednesday. I also make sure to respect yours and your pets space when entering the home! I have two friendly cats at my own home as well.
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats since birth! My dad was a k-9 cop so I’ve been around all kinds of dogs. I love cats too and my cats are my babies!!! I am insured with pet sitting insurance, background checked and finger printed! I am looking for sitting closer to the downtown Durango area or Home Depot area. I teach preschool in town so I would love to be able to spend quality time with your pets in the mornings before work and in the evenings and weekends after work. I would prefer to be at a client’s home. I live far out of town so it would be more convenient for me to follow the instructions of the client.
About: As an avid outdoor enthusiast and dog lover you can be sure your dog is getting the attention and exercise they need! I try to take the dogs out 2 times a day for walks and every couple of hours for potty breaks. I do have a wonderful pup-o of my own, Luna so your doggo has some company. Is your dog more of a runner? If so I’ll pop on my mountain bike and let them do some trail running... more of a lazy doggo? How about some ice cream? Just kidding... no ice cream! Definitely a happy household and a fun loving environment for everyone! If you have any questions, concerns or special needs, feel free to reach out. Thanks and I look forward to meeting with you and your pup!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 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 .
