“Abraham stayed in my home for two weeks, carrying for my reactive dog, 4 chickens, and my house plants. He was communicative, responsible, and really a great fit for our family. Please don't book him up, we love him!”
“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.”
“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.”
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!
“Sara is amazing! She takes her sitting seriously and loves my cats like her own. I’ve booked with her for both drop-in and overnights. She’s on-time, her communication is fantastic and I feel confident in leaving my cats and home in her meticulous care. I’m sure my cats love her as they wind around her legs immediately every time she comes over. Book with Sara today, you and your cats will not regret it!”
“Karsyn was so caring and loving with my sweet dachshund. She kept me updated and sent me lots of pics. My pup loves her!!! I would highly recommend her for your petsitting needs.”
“Maia was wonderful. She took care of 2 dogs with very different needs and a batch of chickens without missing a beat. She left the house tidy and the dogs happy. Maia communicated promptly and well . We will definitely use her again.”
About: I have a Rottweiler/Husky mix of my own who is absolutely spoiled and loved! I’ve also cared for a Sphynx cat who needed some extra attention, Bulldogs with their regular eye-care routines, and my childhood dog who struggled with anxiety. Those experiences have taught me that every pet has their own personality, routine, and little quirks! Whether your pup wants to run around and play, your kitty prefers to nap in a sunny spot, or your pet needs a little extra patience and reassurance, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. 💕 I’ll keep you updated with pictures, cuddles, and plenty of love while you’re away because I know how hard it can be to leave your fur babies behind. My goal is simple: you get peace of mind, and your pet gets a fun, safe, and loving time while you’re gone! 🐶🐱✨ I have a flexible routine and do my best to work around each pet’s needs and schedule. I make sure to set aside time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I always aim to keep them comfortable and stick to their usual routines while their owners are away. I provide pet care in my clients’ homes so their pets can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I take the time to learn what makes each animal feel safe and happy. My care includes following regular feeding schedules, providing fresh water, going on walks, and taking pets out for potty breaks. I also make time for play, exercise, cuddles, and companionship. I want every pet to feel loved and comfortable while their owner is away. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs, including pets that need extra attention or have specific care routines. I’m happy to follow instructions for medications, grooming, and other special needs. I know how important patience and consistency are, especially when pets are adjusting to their owners being gone. I’ll also be respectful of your home and keep your pet’s space clean and tidy. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away. You can feel confident knowing your pets are receiving attentive, loving care and plenty of attention until you return.
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all personalities and ages.

Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm companion, I’m committed to providing personalized care and giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I’m a college student on summer break with a completely flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable care, walks, check-ins, and plenty of attention for your pets throughout the week. I always prioritize keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh food and water, and lots of affection. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free environment where pets feel happy and cared for while their owners are away.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats ever since I was born, taking care of young and older pets. Adjusting my care depending on the pets needs. I am a college student but have time on the weekends; Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays being in the afternoon. I’m pretty flexible but would appreciate a heads up if plans change. I’ve grown up with having a fenced area that we let our pets run around in as well as take them on walks to provide them plenty of exercise
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including puppies and seniors. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive, offering basic training, medication support, consistent routines, and loving care. I’m currently a sophomore in college with a flexible schedule. I’m available early in the morning and after 3 PM on weekdays, and I’m available anytime on weekends. Pet care easily fits into my routine, and I’d love the opportunity to care for and spend time with your pets! I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and trust in both my home and clients’ homes. I follow all care instructions closely, keep environments clean and secure, and provide calm, attentive supervision to ensure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times.
About: I’ve been a dog trainer for 5 years and frequently work with animal behavior, loose leash walking, and puppy basics. I’ve also been a dog groomer and bather for 3 years and have worked at various boarding facilities, so I have a lot of hands on experience with animal care and all the everyday parts of caring for dogs. I’ve also worked on an AKC German Shepherd farm doing conformation showing and training, and I’ve fostered 6 puppies that I trained and prepared for their new families — they still keep in touch with me daily! I really enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood while they’re in my care. I work part time, so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups **(Me and a roomate in the home I will be the sole and only caretaker of your pet throughout the week.)**I live just a few steps from Reaney Park and visit there frequently, so walks and outdoor time are already a regular part of my routine. I have Sundays off every week and am happy to dedicate that day to extra time and attention with your pup. My home is dog proofed and set up to be a safe, comfortable place for your pup. I have two very friendly dogs who can interact with your dog if they’re comfortable with each other, or they can be put away if your dog prefers their own space. Both of my dogs are off-leash trained, but when a client’s dog is staying with me, the door does not open unless that dog is safely leashed. We’re 10 steps away from Reaney Park, where client dogs stay on a leash or long line the entire time. We also have a fenced balcony that your dog can enjoy with supervision if you’d like them to have access to it. Inside, there are plenty of appropriate toys to chew on and cords, surfaces, and other hazards are kept out of reach. Your dog will be supervised whenever they’re not safely crated. I love giving dogs as much freedom as they can safely handle, so please feel free to tell me your pup’s expectations, routines, and requirements. I’m happy to follow them and make their stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Estes
We would definitely book Amanda again! She took the time to get to know us and our high anxiety dog, learning her quirks and committing to winning her over (which she totally did - I think our dog was sad to see her go!). Amanda sent pictures and daily check-ins while we were gone for a week; she was patient (with our dog and her parents, first-time Rover users), easy to work with, and followed our instructions to a T. She took great care of our dog, as well as our house and plants. :) We had a great experience!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 149 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 , 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.
