About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover who understands that pets are family. I provide a safe, loving, and reliable environment where your pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, and care while you're away. I'm patient, dependable, and committed to following your pet's routine, whether that includes walks, playtime, medication, cuddle time, or simply keeping them company. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your furry family member with someone else, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I welcome dogs of all ages and personalities and will make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend!

About: With 27 years of pet sitting under my belt, I’m practically a pet whisperer! Whether it’s belly rubs, playtime, or making sure your fur babies feel right at home, I’m here to give them the VIP treatment. You can relax knowing your pets are in loving, experienced hands! I absolutely adore animals, but since we travel to China for a couple of months each year to visit family, I can’t have a pet of my own. Lucky for your furry friends, that means we get to spoil them just like my own! As a stay-at-home parent, pet care is a natural part of my day, so they’ll get tons of love, playtime, and attention. Your pets will feel like part of the family while you’re away, and you can rest easy knowing they’re in great hands! Since I don’t have pets of my own, your furry companion will receive my full, undivided attention. They’ll be treated like family, with the freedom to roam the house and explore at their own pace. Whether it’s playtime in the backyard or cozying up inside, I’ll ensure they’re always supervised and safe. Your pet will have a blast with all the love, care, and personal attention they deserve, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.
“Allyse did an absolute fantastic job with Zeus. I appreciate the attentiveness and kindness she showed him. I also appreciate her for the last minute support. She’s an outstanding person.”
About: What you'll love about the care I provide is that I can be as energetic or as laid back as your dog desires. I am adaptable and treat each animal as if it's my own. I can also help with getting your mail, ensure your home is always secure, and that your pets are always safe. I can also be contacted at any moment about anything. A little background about myself, I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I am able to leave my home to assist your dog or cat at any time. I fostered over 20 shelter dogs of many different ages, breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I adopted two of my fosters; Zinnie (a terrier mix) and Ryker (a German shepherd mix). I had a shiba inu for 15 years, who recently went over the rainbow bridge. I have a lot of experience with potty training, and ample experience with high energy puppies as well as dogs better in age. If your dog needs ran, played with, walked, or just a companion, I can accomodate! I can also clean your cat's litter box and do any brushing your pet might need. I also have military base access. If you have any further questions please feel free to ask! I look forward to meeting you and your fur family. ~Angie I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule. A typical day includes feeding in the morning, followed by a walk around the block before I start work at 9:30am. My dogs are let outside ever 2-3 hours to play and run around. In the evenings I will feed them again, and then I like to go outside and throw a ball around with them. I have a flexible schedule and can visit your home any day of the week. I can do in-home visits in the mornings, mid-day, evenings, and at night, depending on your needs. I can also board dogs at my home, where they will be let outside every 2-3 hours into a large, fended in yard. When not outside, I give dogs the option of relaxing on the couch or in a dog bed by my desk. I am home with them most of the day!
“Victoria and Cole took great care of our pups! We loved receiving updates and pictures from each visit, especially since my older dog was not feeling great. We almost cancelled our trip but so glad we were able to travel and not worry about our dogs. We will definitely reach back out to Victoria and Cole for future trips and are so grateful for their help.”
“Mario is great! Our dogs are pretty aloof and one stuck by his side during his lunch time drop in. He communicated well, and we would use him again!”
About: I'm experienced with pets of different ages, sizes and personalities-from playful, high-energy dogs to independent or shy cats. I take the time to learn each pet's routine and preferences so they can feel as relaxed as possible in their own environment. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine, allowing me to give pets the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I have a flexible schedule and am currently available most days and times with advanced notice. This flexibility allows me to accommodate a variety of needs, including drop-in visits, walks and extended care. I am reliable and punctual. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a secure, calm environment where pets can feel at home while in my care. I have a large, fenced yard that allows for safe outdoor play and exercise. As a dog owner myself, I'm experienced in handling and caring for larger breeds and understand the importance of supervision, structure, and positive interactions. I currently have a friendly 5-year-old male German Shepherd who is well-socialized and gentle with other dogs. I also occasionally care for my daughter's Pomsky, so I'm comfortable managing dogs with different energy levels and personalities.
“We love having Anna take care of our cat while we are away! We feel so relieved to know she is in safe hands. Anna is responsible, caring, and dependable.”
“Brianne went way above and beyond with our kitties while we were away for the first overnight trip since we had gotten the kittens. She played, fed, cleaned up after them, and was always interacting with the kitties and sending pictures and video! I appreciated the continual contact, and knowing that our cats were being spoiled and well taken care of! We returned, and they were not frantically seeking attention, or worried or anxious. She took great care of them and helped keep them (and me!) at ease!”
About: Grew up with dogs, cared for my own for over 10 years. My friends trust me with their own pets when they travel. And I treat every pet with love, patience, and care. Caring for animals comes naturally to me. I enjoy staying active, spending time outdoors, and making sure every dog gets the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve. My home is a safe, indoor environment where pets receive lots of love and attention. I don’t have a fenced yard, so I take dogs on leashed walks for exercise and potty breaks, always prioritizing their safety and comfort.
About: I can never remember a time I haven’t had dogs in my life. whether it was my own, neighbors or distant relatives I have taken care of dogs in many instances. I am starting college where I will be a student athlete which will make it difficult to always help but on weekends and a few times during the week I can fit pet care into my schedule. I like to accommodate for the dog’s needs but also what the owner expects from my services. I want the dog to have fun and enjoy its exercise!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Carson
Naiya is absolutely AMAZING! I can't recommend her enough!! Her report cards are so cute and well written, and she sends a ton of photos :D She is super sweet and has lots of experience with Animals. When I came home, my cats kinda just stayed doing their own thing. This is a great sign to me, because it means they've been getting the attention they needed while I was gone 🥰
Second time booking with Abigail, she’s always taking care of my babies 🐶 very few people I trust with them and she is always so excited to see them. Mind you, they’re super hyper and bark yet she finds her way around making friends with them! Peacefully went out of town knowing they were taken care of.
Andrew is an amazing pet sitter! He was so good and comfortable with our dogs, they loved him 😁 Andrew is friendly, professional, and very competent with dogs. We have a very big puppy and a timid rescue and they responded so well to him. We highly recommend Andrew and will definitely be using him whenever we need a sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fort Carson is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $32 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,181 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fort Carson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fort Carson. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
