About: Hi! I’m Oliver! From a young age I have had a special bond with animals, especially dogs. Because of this, I am studying zoology at CSU with the hopes of going to veterinary school after my undergrad. I have experience walking dogs and playing with cats as a volunteer at an animal shelter and have experience pet sitting and walking my grandma’s dog. I am currently a part-time student at Colorado State University so I have plenty of time in the evenings and weekends to look after you fur babies and take them for walks. I am dedicated to providing the most love and attention to your fur babies as possible. I can go for long walks and give loving snuggles and playtime. Your fur babies are in good hands with me!
About: I am a compassionate animal caretaker and have worked with a variety of four-legged friends! I believe that a pet is family and deserves the best care possible. I have two dogs at home, and work with animal care professionally. I have about a decade of experience now working with domestic animal shelters, wildlife rehabilitation, and captive wildlife. I am Fear Free Certified which simply means I am equipped to put animal welfare above all else. I love to engage animals and I believe offering enough mental and physical stimulation is key for a healthy pet. I am a detail oriented and caring person, and I show the same love to your pets as my own! I prefer to provide care in the home the animal is already comfortable with and am happy to commute within Fort Collins or nearby. I am very open to working with any special requests you might have. I can provide medications and training as instructed. Please let me know if you have any questions! I look forward to meeting you and your animal family! I will give your pets enrichment, playtime, medications, meals, or exercise as needed. I will meet with you prior to providing pet care to discuss the specific needs for your pet! I generally prefer to offer services in the client/pet's home where the animal is already comfortable. I can provide meals, potty breaks, reinforce ongoing training efforts, and offer enrichment/stimulation and playtime. We will meet and discuss the specific needs for your pet prior to beginning care!
About: 4th year zoology student: I have been caring for pets in homes since I was 15 years old. From 2019-2024 I volunteered with Paws of Central Texas. This included various trainings. I am currently a volunteer at the Reptile and Amphibian Center of the Rockies. I have performed drop in pet care as well as in home pet care for many years. I am a 4th year zoology student on break for summer. I am volunteering at the Reptile and Amphibian Center of the Rockies. My shifts are usually 2-3 hours so I am very flexible to drop in or stay with your pet. I will treat your pet as my own. I will communicate as much as necessary. I am able to give my full attention to your pets!
“Julianne is amazing, and went the extra mile to help us block off one of our plants from our cats while we were away because we were concerned it was causing stomach issues! She’s always super communicative, helpful, and caring! I highly recommend her!”
“Wendy is simply amazing with my cats. She goes above and beyond to help as needed. Anytime I travelled, i honestly always worried about my cats. With Wendy, I really have peace of mind that they are in great hands.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Collins
Becca took wonderful care of our cat, Piper, while we were away! She was reliable, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease knowing Piper was in such good hands. She kept the litter box clean, made sure Piper had everything she needed, and spent quality time giving her the attention and affection she loves. It was clear that Becca genuinely cared for Piper’s well-being. We’re so grateful for her help and would absolutely trust her to watch Piper again. Highly recommend Becca to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!
Excellent and attentive sitter, provided great care and play to our pets! Noticed we ran out of litter so she brought her own to use when we were gone. She went above and beyond to communicate, send photos, and answer questions. She is incredibly passionate about what she does and the animals she cares for, it shines through. I couldn’t recommend Lillian more!
She was incredibly thorough, attentive, and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She sent lots of photos and updates every visit, which made it so much easier to relax knowing our cat was happy and well cared for. It was obvious she genuinely cared and took the time to make sure everything was perfect. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!
If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Audrey was super attentive in her house visits for my kitty while I was out of town. My senior kitty, Josie, is a little shy and doesn’t warm up easily sometimes. She loved Audrey and was a proper lap cat with her! Audrey spent extra effort to cater to her needs, and I could tell how happy Josie was from the photos Audrey posted. I absolutely recommend her!!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Fort Collins on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 1,268 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fort Collins. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
