“Amanda was amazing with our two large/medium dogs!! One has behavioral considerations and both take medication, and we didn’t worry about them for one second in her hands - even though we had no cell reception during our trip. She was friendly, clearly truly loves pets, and left our home spotless. We will definitely be asking her to keep our babies again!”
“Hera is definitely one of the, if not the number one, best pet sitter we have ever had! She was professional, communicative, understanding, and took great care of our two dogs, two cats, and home. She definitely went above and beyond any expectations, and as such, we give our highest recommendations. We can’t thank you enough, Hera! 🐶🐶😺😺”
“Victoria was fantastic with my pup! I was very impressed by her professionalism, and could tell my dog had a great time with her. She was timely and very attentive to my dog’s schedule and needs. Definitely recommend!”
“Kaelyn is a thoughtful, conscientious house/pet sitter. She met all of our needs, and adjusted well when ouir plans shifted. Good communicator. I would not hesitate to call upon her again.”
“Jessica stayed with our pets and took great care of both them and our house while we were on vacation. She is quick with communication responses and easy to work with and get updates from. Our pets seemed happy and relaxed when we got back. Thanks so much - would happily book Jessica again and definitely recommend her!”
“Brandi took great care of my two dogs. She communicated with me throughout her stay and sent pictures each day. She stayed at my house and everything was clean and tidy when I returned. Would book her again.”
“Emily was excellent, she took great care of our dog Bessie and gave us updates throughout our trip. It was easy to communicate with her and she even stayed a little longer to take care of our dog because our flight got delayed. I highly recommend Emily, she is awesome!”
“We couldn't be happier with our experience! Hannah stayed at our house with our dog Conor, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals. Conor absolutely adored her — which honestly says everything. She was super responsive leading up to the stay, prompt with updates throughout, and even took Conor on sniff walks (anyone with a scent-driven dog knows what a labor of love those are!). We came back to a happy pup and zero stress, which is all you can ask for! We'll definitely be booking Hannah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who truly cares. 🐾”
About: I’ve grown up with animals of all kinds in my home. While I currently only have a cat, I’ve been the owner of several dogs, a couple snakes, a bearded dragon and I’m not afraid of really any type of animal. I have a pretty open schedule, single mom to a couple of boys and pet mom to one sweet cat. I love snuggling any animal. So I live in an apartment but very frequently go out to trails and parks with my kids, I would have no problem including your pet!
“Audrey did a wonderful job pet-sitting our 13 year old dog and tending our houseplants while we were away on vacation for a week. She was very responsive to our requests for updates and photos via text and also didn't hesitate to ask questions about anything she was unsure about. The house was in perfect shape when we got back. Would highly recommend her.”
About: I have been around animals since I was born, and wanted to be a veterinarian ever since I was three! I now attend WSU and am in my first year of veterinary school! I have worked with several different types of animals, ranging from mice and rats to horses. I currently have 3 of my own cats and 4 rats! I have a dog back at home in Tacoma too. If you need simple drop ins, pet sitting, or dog walks, I am here for you! I usually have classes from 1-5 PM, then work for a couple hours after that. I can usually stop by on weekends, late nights, or mornings/ early afternoons to take care of your pet! I will regularly check on the well-being of the animal. Not only will your pet be fed and taken out regularly, but any mess that we might make will be cleaned up better than we found it!
“Elizabeth was so wonderful! Will be making her our regular sitter for sure. She even took care of our cats, fish, and chickens, which allowed me to travel with total peace of mind. Her attention to specific instructions was impeccable. The cats and dog seemed so content when we arrived home.”
“Sienna has been absolutely wonderful, very willing to be flexible to accommodate my schedule, and does great with my "stranger-danger"-prone dog! She responds really fast to texts, sends updates, and even took it upon herself to rotate fans and windows to help cool my place down while I was gone.”
“Ann always takes excellent care of our pets and our home. She is always our first choice when we are heading out of town because we know we’ll come home to happy healthy pets and a clean home, so we can enjoy our trips with no worries.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’m the proud owner of a 3-year-old high-energy Aussiedoodle named Arlo, so I’m very comfortable meeting the needs of active, intelligent dogs who thrive on routine, exercise, and attention. We spend our weekends hiking and exploring the outdoors, which has given me a strong appreciation for physical and mental enrichment for pets. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and set of needs, and I strive to provide patient, attentive, and reliable care so both pets and owners feel at ease. Whether it’s keeping up with daily walks, playtime, feeding routines, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. On weekdays, I work from 8–5 but live close enough to come home during my lunch break for potty breaks, walks, feeding check-ins, and some one-on-one time. Pets are never left alone all day and get consistent care throughout the day. Mornings and evenings include walks, playtime, and relaxed downtime at home. On weekends, my schedule is very flexible, which allows for longer walks, outdoor adventures, and extra attention. I’m especially comfortable caring for high-energy dogs and making sure they get the exercise and enrichment they need. I care for pets in my home just like I do my own dog — with lots of attention, routine, and love. I follow each pet’s normal schedule for meals, walks, and any special instructions, and make sure they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and downtime. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, including high-energy dogs. I work 8–5 on weekdays but come home at lunch for walks and check-ins, so pets aren’t left alone all day. On weekends, we enjoy longer walks, outdoor time, and a relaxed pace. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and at home while keeping owners updated and worry-free.
About: Currently I’m a vet student at WSU! I’ve just wrapped up my first year of vet school. My ultimate goal is to go into large animal medicine. I have lived with cats my entire life and have worked with dogs throughout high school and into college. I am currently fitting in part time animal care into my daily routine. It is something I enjoy doing and is an activity I enjoy making time for. In a clients home I would be ready and willing to feed pets and let pets outside. I would also be willing to play with pets and take them on walks.
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10. I have cared for a blind senior cat as well as a cat with hip problems, which required patience, close monitoring, and adapting the environment to keep them safe and comfortable. I currently help care for my friend’s senior dog, who also has hip and dental issues, so I’m familiar with administering gentle support, maintaining comfort, and being attentive to mobility limitations and pain cues. In addition, I have experience caring for younger animals, including kittens and puppies around 12 weeks old. This has given me practice with high-energy care, feeding routines, supervision, and basic early-life behavior management. Overall, I’m comfortable working with both senior pets and young animals, and I adjust my care style based on each pet’s specific health, energy level, and personality needs. Pet care fits into my routine pretty easily because I currently have a part-time job with a very variable schedule. Since my shifts change from week to week, I’m generally flexible and available most days with some notice. This flexibility allows me to adjust around pet care responsibilities like feeding, walks, check-ins, or overnight stays when needed. I’m also used to planning my time in a way that ensures animals are consistently cared for, even on busier days, so I can reliably fit pet care into my weekly schedule. In my home, I would make sure any pet is cared for in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. While my apartment doesn’t have a backyard, there is a fenced-in area nearby where dogs can run, play fetch, and get exercise. I also have a car, so if the owner is comfortable with it, I can take the dogs to a dog park for additional enrichment and activity. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions are followed closely. I’m also very mindful of respecting the home itself. I was raised to always leave a place cleaner than I found it, so I make sure everything is kept tidy, organized, and exactly as I found it. Communication is also important to me, so I always update owners and let them know right away if anything seems off or if there are any concerns about their pet’s health, behavior, or well-being.

We couldn't be happier with our experience! Hannah stayed at our house with our dog Conor, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals. Conor absolutely adored her — which honestly says everything. She was super responsive leading up to the stay, prompt with updates throughout, and even took Conor on sniff walks (anyone with a scent-driven dog knows what a labor of love those are!). We came back to a happy pup and zero stress, which is all you can ask for! We'll definitely be booking Hannah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who truly cares. 🐾
Brandi is wonderful! She gave my dog lots of love and attention and made sure he wasn’t lonely while we were gone, and took great care of our home as well. She provided lots of pictures and updates so we knew he was being well cared for. We had never used rover before so I was nervous about trusting someone we’d never met, but she immediately put my mind at ease when I met her. Will 100% seek her services again, and cannot recommend her highly enough.

FAQs for House Sitting - Estes
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 155 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Estes. 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 Estes 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 Estes 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 Estes 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 Estes. On Rover:
- 82% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
