“Candace was great with our animals! She offered to schedule a meet and greet before we left on our trip and I could tell that she knew what she was doing. She sent us pictures every morning and even offered to clean up a mess that our dog made! Candace is kind and trustworthy she’s just the person you would want to watch your animals!”
“Jordan was absolutely incredible with our babies and they loved her as well! She sent multiple photos and updates with every visit and we felt very safe leaving our home and them in her hands. She was wonderful and patient with our dog, who can be quite anxious, and even dedicated additional time before our trip to make sure that he was comfortable with her. We would absolutely recommend her and thank you again for everything!”
“We greatly appreciated Robin's attentive care of our two cats, one of which can be quite a handful. She made sure both of them got the love and attention they needed, for a first-time and fairly last minute booking. We could not be more grateful for her flexibility!”
About: Hello! My name is Jacob and I’ve been surrounded by animals of all kinds for my whole life, and have always loved their company. I will strive to provide the best possible care for your pets and treat them as if they were my own. I’m here for their needs, whether it’s to wear out a young active pup or take a casual stroll around the block letting your senior dog stop as they need to. I’ve always had a lot of flexibility in my schedule and have enjoyed pet sitting as a side job for many years. I’m currently working part time in the early mornings so I have tons of time during the day to help care for your pets. If you need me to stay with your pets I’m usually only gone for a 3.5 hour shift so they won’t be left alone for very long! I will have your pets safety and comfort always in mind and make sure they have what they need to stay happy until you return.
About: I've been caring for animals for my whole life, I've always had pets, and have been a walker on apps for 6+ years. I'm always willing to sit, board or walk. I volunteer with a small nonprofit that provides service dogs to disabled veterans and hope I can positively impact you and your pets. I currently volunteer, and work part-time with flexibility, so I can frequently pick-up/drop-off or check-in on your pets. My home is pet friendly with two cats. I do currently serve in the Navy reserves, so I travel to Denver once a month for a couple days, but I always know my schedule ahead of time. I have two cats who are comfortable around dogs, live in a two bedroom apartment, with close access to a grassy area and some local parks.
“Anne was truly wonderful with our JB. She is very dependable and a sent updates with photos for each visit. Felt completely at ease knowing that she was watching our fur baby. Highly recommend!”
“Eleshia did a great job watching over my cat for the weekend! Good communication throughout and even brought in some packages for me! We’ll definitely use her again”
“Cecily did great with Binx! It was the longest I’ve ever been away from the little guy, and she sat and played with him to keep him company while I was away. Highly recommended her to watch your fur babies!”
About: As an animal lover, I've grown up with cats, dogs, fish, and reptiles. I'm quiet and gentle with every pet I meet, and have an eye for detail and commitment to routine. I currently teach part-time at CMU on Mondays and Wednesdays from 1-6, and am available most mornings and evenings outside of that for any pet needs. I'm usually up around 6:30am for a walk, so early morning routines and dog walking are welcome. My 2 cats are spoiled but healthy and well behaved. They've got several bowls of water, and are fed 3 times a day, and have plenty of space to lounge, perch, and play - including a cat wheel for zoomies. I've got a crested gecko and 3 frogs as well, in bioactive terrariums with automated lights and misting systems for reliable humidity. In terms of treatment, I'm very gentle and want the best for every pet - a calm demeanor helps when trimming nails or giving meds, and playing with toys instead of hands builds safe habits. While I might be new to you and your pet's life, I'm great about maintaining routine and comfort so that I cause as minimal stress as possible.
About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was young, but because my parents are international teachers, we were never able to have dogs that we could travel with! Whenever I came home for the summer, I would jump at the chance to watch family friend’s dogs and cats for months at a time. I would live at their houses and treat their pets as my own! I am a certified dog person but love spending time with any animal I can :) I currently work at a restaurant so my schedule is not fixed, but I only work 4-5 hours at a time so would be able to make playing and taking care of your pets a priority!! I will always strive to ensure your pets are comfortable with me and treat them how I would treat my own! I can walk them as much as needed and play with them whenever I can! I would be there to make them happy, and of course hanging with pups is a bonus for me as well!
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10, I have watched all sorts of dogs, from family to friends to coworkers, and neighbors even:) I’m currently working for a second job but I always make sure that my animal care come first, I try to reason with my clients if change happens. I always try to make sure my dogs and cats stay occupied with toys and treats and walks making sure that they are always fed 2 time a day
“Dawna's care of Mac was excellent. She is very friendly and talented when it comes to taking care of Mac. I felt comfortable with her from the start and so did Mac. He doesn't often greet unfamiliar people, but he was friendly from the start with Dawna. I will be recommending her, Rover to others as well as continuing to book Dawna in the future.”
About: I can't remember ever being without a dog or cat! Caring for, running, walking, hiking and sitting for all pets has always been my passion. I'm available anytime after 7 am to visit with, walk, hike or run your pet. I'm also available to just sit with and snuggle your pet anytime. I will come to your home and pick up your pet and exercise them, or visit in your home respecting your desires and pet's limitations.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Fruita on Rover is $15.75 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fruita. On Rover:

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.
