About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. Growing up on a farm, my family always had multiple dogs and often cats, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I love spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. After college, I regularly pet sat and looked after my parents’ farm while they traveled, sometimes for trips lasting up to a month. This meant caring for multiple animals, sticking to feeding schedules, and making sure everything ran smoothly while they were away. I also helped raise and train my girlfriend’s dog from puppyhood, giving me experience with basic obedience, leash manners, socialization, and establishing a consistent routine. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet companion, I’ll treat them with the same care, patience, and attention I’d give my own. I work Monday through Thursday from 6:00 AM to 4:00 PM, but outside of those hours my schedule is very flexible. I’m available for early morning, evening, overnight, and weekend care, with full availability Friday through Sunday. I’m reliable, responsive, and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, so I’ll take the time to follow your instructions closely, maintain their normal routine, and provide plenty of attention and care. I’ll keep your home clean and secure, make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always used properly, and treat both your pets and your home with the same respect I would my own. You can count on regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Hi! My name is Hannah and I’m looking to get back into dog sitting/walking on the weekends. I grew up with dogs my entire life and have always loved animals. I have dog sat for neighbors and friends for years. I currently have a 7 year old Pyrenees/lab mix and he lives the best dog life. I’m strictly a weekend doggie caretaker as I work full time during the week. If you need a dog sitter while away for the weekend, I can help! I’m very patient and attentive to the dogs I will take care of. They will be in great care at my apartment and there’s plenty of (unfenced) property I live in but happy to bring them outside with a leash too. I am happy to watch your dog in your home as well!
“We’ve hired Louis to house sit and watch our cat three times now and he has gone above and beyond each time. He offered to drop by for an extra morning at no additional cost after our travel plans were extended and he even took out the track and brought in all our packages and mail during our absence. You can’t go wrong with Louis!”
“Faith was well taken care of and I received pictures and updates from Danica which I appreciated!! Faith was relaxed and happy when we arrived home! I felt completely comfortable and relaxed with Danica taking care of Faith, knowing she was in good hands!”
About: I’ve been caring for fur babies since I graduated high school, giving both puppies and senior dogs the special attention they need. I love animals of every shape and size and treat them like my own—because let’s be honest, they run the household anyway. Your pet will get a happy, stress-free stay with plenty of love, snuggles, and top-tier spoiling. I work a full-time job during the day, but I’m available for drop-ins and visits in the late afternoons and evenings. I’m also free all day on Sundays, as well as one select weekday depending on my schedule. If you communicate your needs ahead of time, I’ll always do my best to make it happen. Your fur baby’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I come to your home so your pet can stay in their favorite place, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. I follow your instructions carefully and keep your home secure, tidy, and respected. You’ll always get clear updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I grew up on a small farm with lots of animals, always taking the dogs on walks or keeping the cat food away from raccoons. I've walked many people's dogs across the country of various sizes and ages and love having pets in the home while I don't have any myself. I usually am working from home or gone for a few hours a day. I love waking up and walking the dog outside before starting my day and winding down in the evenings the same way. Walking/outside breaks throughout the day is crucial for me and I love having a pet to accompany me. On the weekend I love to hike in the mountains and enjoy taking dogs. I have a park next to my apartment for easy walks., I'm always attentive to their eating schedule. Pets get a lot of attention and snuggles especially in the evening.
“Caitlin took wonderful care of our dog in our home while we were away. We received updates and photos and came home to a happy pup and clean house! We would recommend her for any dog sitting needs.”
“Christina is an amazing pet/house sitter. I had to leave town for a few days, so she stayed in our home to care for our American Akita and two cats. My Akita can be picky about who she will allow in the house but immediately love Christina. I received daily photos of the cats snuggled up on her and dog walks. She also left the house as she found it, which is much appreciated. All went amazingly well and we definitely will be asking Christina to help again in the future.”
“Melissa was fabulous!! We were in Glenwood for our wedding and needed someone to hang out with our little rescue Pomeranians. She was on time, communicated quickly, and gave our little nuggets the attention they needed to feel secure. Highly recommend booking Melissa for your dog watching needs.”
“Maizy didn't even care that we were gone! Thank you Chelsea! You were great with communication & our dog was well cared for! Highly recommend Chelsea as an elderly dog sitter (or any age dog)!!!”
“Amber was great with the dogs (: She took them out on so many walks, they were so happy! Very communicative and overall a pleasure to have sitting my pups while I was gone. Will definitely check Amber's schedule the next time I need someone to watch Mia and Nina!”
“Kat, watched our cat for two weeks while we were on a trip. She took great care of him and sent us messages about how he was doing while we were away. She left the house in excellent shape after staying there for the duration. She is easy to work with and responds quickly. Would highly recommend.”
About: I've always grown up with dogs and have been a dog lover my whole life. I have been house sitting and animal sitting for about 10 years now. I love spending time with dogs and making sure they're still happy while their parents are away! This is a win-win situation for both of us because your dog will be well taken care of, and I get to play with it! All fun aside, I do make sure to pay close attention and take care of each dog's individual needs. Everybody's unique so that will always be taken into account. Let me know what you need and I will make sure to help! I'm also a big fan of exercise so if you've got a dog that loves to run, lets run! I have a very open schedule, most of the time I only work at night and rarely for more than 6 hours. I can usually adjust my schedule as needed. Depending on the dog, I always take extra steps to guarantee that they stay safe. Whether that means taking extra note to make sure all doors to rooms are closed, foods are high out of reach, etc.
“Erin accommodated to my old dog’s needs the weekend she was watching her. She always kept me updated and I was at peace knowing she was there taking care of Shaggy. Will definitely use again in the future!”

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day.

“Mariah was a wonderful sitter! She was able to spend most of the three days completely with Maile, which was very important to me. She kept me updated on how Maile was doing, the walks they were taking and I felt very comfortable having Mariah stay in my home. She now walks Maile 3 days a week! Maile and I are happy to have Mariah as part of our family. I highly recommend her and will have her stay again when I need a sitter for my baby girl.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - El Jebel
Jasper was a wonderful dog sitter for our two dogs. They received so much attention, plenty of play time, and lots of walks every day. He communicated well throughout our trip and sent us lots of pictures. Besides taking great care of our pups, he also took great care of our house. We traveled abroad and felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were happy and in such good hands. We highly recommend Jasper and would gladly book him again.
Destiny was wonderful! At our meet-and-greet, she was professional, kind, and calm, and she immediately connected with our 13-year-old dog, Lizzy. We felt completely comfortable leaving Lizzy in her care, especially during the hot Colorado summer weather. Destiny kept us updated with just the right amount of communication and photos, and we came home feeling that Lizzy had made a new friend. We would absolutely recommend Destiny and look forward to having her care for Lizzy again!
Alice is maybe the best dog sitter I’ve ever had. My pup felt safe and happy with her immediately, and I did not feel worried for one moment of my trip. She went above and beyond taking great care of him and my house and keeping me updated the whole time. I whole heartedly recommend her. Thank you so much!!

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 El Jebel 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 El Jebel 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 El Jebel 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 , 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 .
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 .
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.
