About: I have been dog, cat, and even plant sitting since I was 14. I have over 500 hours of experience working as a veterinary assistant at small animal and exotic animal clinics! I’ve had 12 pets over the years and I currently live just with my cat meatloaf! I am currently job hunting, so I am free all day right now (other than visiting my own cat at home). I am happy to walk/ cycle to take care of your animal! I prioritize building a friendship with your pets, as I believe it helps me to provide the best level of care and trust. I am more than happy to play and/ or give them their space need be. You can be put at ease as I am open to paid cleaning agreements. Finally, it is my privilege to send a billion photos of your pets when I’m with them!
About: I have had pets my entire life and have also pet sit for friends in my hometown. I have a deep love for animals, and I spent my summer volunteering at a wildlife rehabilitation center! I am a full time student at CSU. I have classes Monday-Friday, but they tend to be spread out and I have time to feed or let out animals as needed. My classes end pretty early so I am free to stay at the house/apartment with pets in the evenings. I am not able to bring any animals into my residence hall, but I am more than happy to hang out with them in the owner’s home or to go on walks!
“Tara is reliable, attentive, detail oriented, and very communicative. She arrived to our meet and greet having read our (complicated long) cat care documents and had wrapped her head around the cats (many) medications well enough that she reminded me of one I had forgotten as I was making the cats food! She is clearly very used to caring for others pets and has her system absolutely perfected. If you are an anxious pet owner, she is absolutely for you - she does everything in her power to make sure you know your kitties are taken care of. We strongly recommend her!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Collins
Ashley was incredible with our two cats who can be a lot of work! She was timely, diligent and communicative. She went above and beyond to find out cats’ tracker collars when the came off (they are neighborhood roamers) and our cats seemed to like coming around with her there. Big win for us as we are new to using cat Rover!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Fort Collins on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,553 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fort Collins. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fort Collins stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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.

- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 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.
