“Salomé did a great job of taking care of our pups and home! She was very communicative and sent pictures of our puppies during her stay. She did a great job and would rebook her to puppy sit again.”
“Kaedon did a great job from start to finish. Great communication, came by for a meet and greet. Great communication when we were gone and even dealt with some separation anxiety with our youngest dog. Dogs and house both look great and seem to be well taken care of. Thank you and won’t hesitate to refer you to others and to also reach out with any needs in the future. Thank you again!!”
“This is our second time using Nicole. She was awesome once again! The dogs are so well cared for and loved. We appreciate that she keeps us in the loop and shares photos multiple times a day. She is definitely our go to for keeping the girls!”
“Alissa was PHENOMENAL!! While we were away she consistently sent us updates on our pups and ensured they were getting tons of love and attention. I would highly recommend booking with her as she truly cares for pups as her own!”
“Bre did a great job! She is very thorough in making sure she understood our dog’s unique needs, provided detailed updates twice a day and tons of photos. It was our first time leaving our dog for more than a day with someone else, but we felt very comfortable knowing we had someone responsible and trustworthy like Bre taking care of her.”
“Kayla that was wonderful. She took good care of my dogs. Cuddled with them and sent me pictures. She seemed to really love my dogs and vice versa. I would definitely use Kayla again.”
“Mario is a terrific pet sitter! He made my super skittish pup pretty comfortable. He took excellent care of out pups and home. The house is without a doubt cleaner than when we left. Really just such an amazing sitter. Book with Mario!!!”
“Brianne was fabulous! She provided daily "pupdates" morning and night and responded to any of my questions quickly. She took wonderful care of my senior pup who requires morning/evening meds and special diet. She left the house spotless, including washing any linens she'd used during her stay. I highly recommend her!”
“Danielle was great! She took excellent care of my high energy dogs and kept the house really nice and clean. She sent me updates and I got to see how happy my dogs were playing outside, going for hikes, and getting lots of attention. Would definitely recommend her for anyone who needs their pups looked after.”
“Edyn was a wonderful Rover for my 6 yr old mini Schauzer. In fact, we've booked her again already. She's very prompt, sent photos and updates, and clearly loves dogs. Highly recommended”
“Hope was wonderful with my Clyde! She took him on hikes and car rides and he is SUCH a fan.he also is a fan of cuddles and just chilling with her. I felt very comfortable leaving him in her care and would love to use her again. She’s kind and sweet and gave updates and I know he was in good hands.”
“Dora took great care of our two doodles while we were on vacation! We got pictures and updates everyday, and the house was well taken care of in our absence. Would recommend her to others!”
“Peyten did a terrific job! Most importantly she took great care of my pup. She spent hours playing and walking her each day. She took great care of my home and gave constant updates. I would definitely hire her again!”
“We greatly appreciated how well Lily took care of our Chex!! She communicated and sent pics regularly which put our minds at ease. And it’s clear Chex liked her and was comfortable as she clearly ate while we were gone (it’s not uncommon for us to come back with a skinny girl from refusing to eat). Also, Lily left our house clean which was greatly appreciated!! We will definitely book with Lily again!”
“Cara was great watching our dogs! She would always check-in and send us videos and photos of them and really kept our minds at ease. Would definitely use her again!”
“Brianna is wonderful! I recently went out of town and she stayed with my four dogs for the first time and it was a great experience. The dogs adored her, were spoiled with cuddles and walks, and she very respectful of the house. She sent plenty of updates with pictures and followed their feeding and medication needs no problem! Overall, highly recommend Brianna for any pet care needs - she is caring and amazing with animals! 😊”
“Booked Keyona for a last minute trip and she was wonderful and very understanding. We sent updates and made it easy to focus on the trip without having to worry about my pets. I would definitely recommend and if the opportunity presented itself again, ill be booking with Keyona again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Carson
Please read previous reviews I've posted about Ashton's caring for my two "kiddos" Winston and Gracie. More than anything, I trust, and have confidence, she will take care of my dogs, perhaps, "better than I do!" Dependable, on time, sends pictures, communicates issues etc. This last session as I was out of country for three weeks, one of my dogs became sick. Ashton handled the situation expeditiously, and resolved the issue in a timely fashion. Five Stars!
This was my first time having Haley care for Bruce, and I could not have asked for a better experience. From the moment she arrived, her kindness and compassion created an immediate sense of comfort in my home. As a first-time cat owner, I was initially nervous, but Haley quickly put my mind at ease by sending thoughtful updates and photos throughout her visit, ensuring I knew Bruce was happy and well cared for. I will absolutely be requesting her services again and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Fort Carson
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fort Carson on Rover is $43.29 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,223 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fort Carson. 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 Fort Carson 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 Fort Carson 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 Fort Carson 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.

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.
