About: Hi, I’m Rosie! I’m an experienced animal caregiver and I am very passionate about providing safe, loving care for every pet. I’ve known since I was little that I wanted to work with animals, and this opportunity allows me to continue building that path while I’m in college. Through my previous job, I gained hands on experience and a strong understanding that animal welfare always comes first. I’m committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! Since I’m currently taking college courses I am usually online finishing assignments but since I am online I make sure to keep my schedule flexible so I can provide reliable, attentive care for your pet. I’m always happy to communicate and find times that work best for you! Safety and trust are my top priorities during walks and drop-ins. I always ensure collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure before walks and stay aware of our surroundings to keep your dog safe and comfortable. As for drop-ins, I carefully follow your pet’s routine for potty breaks (or ensuring a clean litter box!), feeding, fresh water, and playtime. I double check that doors and gates are secure before leaving and treat your home with respect. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands!
“Jarrah took great care of my dear Pinky! Jarrah was punctual for her visits and Pinky warmed up to her during their time together. I would highly recommend Jarrah to anyone seeking quality pet sitting. EM”
About: I’m a huge animal lover and have been around all kinds of pets all of my life! Chickens, dogs, cats, iguanas, birds, snakes, and even rats, ferrets, and guinea pigs. I have two large, energetic dogs of my own (Doberman and a Cane Corso) so I’m very comfortable handling big, strong, high-energy breeds. I also regularly walk and care for my mother-in-law’s Pomeranian, so I’m as happy working with little dogs and their very big personalities! I’m a cat lover originally, so I’m comfortable caring for cats and understand that they have their own personalities, boundaries, and routines. Whether your pet is big, small, energetic, shy, or just wants some company and attention, I’ll treat them with the same care and affection I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pets and help keep them happy, active, and cared for while you’re away! I’m a full-time student and also work full-time during the week, so my pet care availability is focused on weekends. I’m happy to dedicate my weekends to walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with your pets! I do not currently offer boarding services. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and house rules. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I’ll also respect your home and keep you updated so you know your pet is safe and happy.

“Victoria was attentive and wonderful! She offered to water our plants on top of checking on our cat for a few days. He was very well taken care of and loved her company 😊”
About: I have 30+ years of experience taking care of dogs. I would love to spend time with yours! I Whether they are young or old, I can attune to their needs. I'm currently working part-time and have plenty of time to take care of your pet! Please contact me to find a time that works for both of us. I am also attuned to the behavior of pets and pay close attention to their needs. I will make sure they are healthy and happy throughout our time together.
About: I have experience staying overnight in clients’ homes to care for their pets, including senior and sick dogs who need extra love and attention. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy! I’m also happy to host pets in my own home, which is cozy and has a nice backyard for play and fresh air. I’m friendly, reliable, and treat every pet like my own💕💕🐶🐱 I currently am a senior in highschool who's unemployed so that means I have a lot of time!

“Mariah was great! She dropped in one morning and evening to feed, walk, and hang with Annie for a bit. She asked good questions, was communicative and sent photo updates. Would use Mariah again!!”
About: I've taken care of animals for friends and family for 10+ years. Your pets will always remain well taken care of regardless of their needs. I work a contract gig in my spare time which allows me to work on my time. That means whenever your pet needs some attention I can always make sure to be there for them! I currently am unable to take pets to my own house, but I'm comfortable being in others homes with their pets. This is often easier on the pets as well so that they can stay in an environment they're most comfortable with.
“Sarah did a lovely job with my two big kitties! Rarely does the larger Maine Coon warm up to anyone--but he was already begging for her love as soon as he met her! To me, that says a lot about a cat sitter. I can't give higher praise than that--my babies adored her and I came home to happy cats after a week away. I will absolutely use her again!”
About: I love dogs! Big ones, small ones, all of them! I’ve always had dogs since I was small and I have two fur babies of my own. I love taking care of dogs, I will make sure to keep you updated with puppy pictures and videos when I check on them, make sure they have no energy left so they sleeeeep. I have experience handling dogs who are nervous, a little on the aggressive side with other dogs, hyper or even a little sad missing their owners. My own dog has a lot of allergies so providing any medications is fine with me. The most important thing to me is making sure your pups are as comfortable and happy as can be without you being there with them!!
About: I love dogs. I have had them all my life and want to share that with you so you can feel comfortable while you are away. Dogs seem to gravitate towards me. I have volunteered at our local dog rescue in the past but I kept wanting to bring all the dogs home so I had to take a break because I can't rescue them all but if I had enough land I would own 1000 dogs. I will love your pups like my own and will take great care of them. Since I work remotely, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends, allowing me to provide pets with consistent attention, companionship, and loving care whenever they need it. I give them lots of love and attention. Walks to the park or walks around the neighborhood. I have also taken care of pups and cats who need medications.
About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was 15, frequently doing drop-ins for my neighbors with cats. I now own two cats who were formerly semi-feral. Over the past three years, I’ve helped them come out of their shells through consistent care, patience, and love. I manage their anxiety with medication daily, so I’m very comfortable working with shy or nervous pets who need extra understanding and special care. I’m newer to Rover and excited to grow my clientele! As I build my profile and reviews, I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to adjust my schedule around your pet’s needs. I’m available for drop-in visits, feeding, medication, and playtime throughout the day, including afternoons, mornings, and weekend. I also am willing to house sit overnight if you’d like someone to keep your pets and home company while you’re away. I treat every pet and home as if my own. From locking up carefully after drop-ins to double-checking feeding and medication instructions, I make sure your home and pets are always safe and cared for responsibly.
“LAUREN! She was AMAZING with my 3 little pupper girls. I contacted her last minute for 30 min drop-ins for 2 days in a row and she was thankfully SO quick to respond and enthusiastic in every conversation. This girl really loves on your pets and pays attention to their individual needs. She went above and beyond with adorable photos and let me know exactly how she interacted with them. Loved her updates and punctuality and will 100% be contacting her for future care. Thank you so much Lauren!”
About: As a dedicated dog parent to two wonderful pups: Athena (8), a sweet brindle pit mix I’ve loved since 2019, and Maverick (4), an energetic Australian Shepherd/Cattle Dog mix with striking Rottweiler markings who joined our family in 2023 from a foster fail, I know firsthand that raising dogs comes with its own unique rewards and challenges. Every moment with them is completely worth it, and they've taught me so much about patience, routine, and individual care. Having used Rover as a client, I know how disappointing it feels when a sitter treats your pets as just a job rather than true family members. That experience inspired me to step up and become the kind of sitter every owner hopes to find. My promise to you is simple: I treat every pup with the exact same unconditional love, attentive care, and playful affection I give Athena and Maverick. When your furry best friend is with me, they aren't just being looked after—they're right at home. I am currently working full-time remotely at home, and have a flex schedule that allows me to suit your dog’s needs and schedule! Whether I’m staying at your place or taking your dog out for an adventure, I treat your home and your pets with the exact same respect, care, and attention I give my own. In Your Home: When house sitting or dropping in, I strictly follow your pet's routine, feeding schedule, and house rules to keep their environment familiar and stress-free. You can count on your home being kept clean, secure, and well-cared for while you’re away. Socialization & Play: Since my own pets can sometimes get a bit protective at home, I prefer to keep my residence separate and meet up for fun, controlled socialization in neutral public spaces like local parks. Tailored Care: Every dog is unique. I take the time to learn your pup's personal quirks, favorite games, and daily habits so they receive personalized, VIP treatment every step of the way!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Federal Heights
Our animals love Kayli and so do we! She’s incredibly reliable, always sends pictures of our babies, and makes sure they’re taken care of exactly how we ask! We use her for drop in visits when we’re out of town and feel so safe with trusting our home and pets with her :)
Noel was absolutely wonderful taking care of our dog, Ursula, during her drop in visits while we were away. She provided thoughtful updates and plenty of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our favorite part was seeing Ursula’s silly personality shine through in the pictures. It was clear she felt comfortable, happy, and had so much fun with Noel. We came home to a happy, well cared for pup and could not have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely book with Noel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable Rover.
I have been looking for a consistent person to watch my dog and Taylor is the perfect fit!! Mello loves her so much and she takes care of him like he is her own! I came home to a happy healthy dog!! I am so glad I found taylor and will continue to book with her moving forward. Thank you so much Taylor!!

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.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Federal Heights 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!
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 .
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
