“Esmeralda stepped in at last minute’s notice to take care of my cats. Not only was her willingness to take my last minute job deeply appreciated, she went above and beyond in her service. She cleaned up any messes the cats made, watered the plants in the apartment, and sent great photos of the cats every day. They clearly loved visiting with her, which was evident in all of her photos! I would recommend Esmeralda to anybody.”
“Caroline was so great with my cats!! I never worried once that there would be a problem… she was prompt, left detailed notes about the visits and loved on my cats as if they were her own. I will definitely have her back!”
“Sydney was extremely caring with our kitties! We highly recommend her for any pet needs! We didn’t have to worry about a thing while we were gone. Thank you Sydney!”
“This was our fourth time having Shari care for our cat, Chico — and once again, she exceeded our expectations! We absolutely adore her, and Chico clearly does too. On our most recent trip, we added a new member to the family — a fish — and Shari was incredibly helpful in taking care of both pets with the same attention and care. She is reliable, thoughtful, and communicates clearly during every visit, always keeping us updated with detailed messages and adorable photos. It gives us such peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands. We truly feel like we’ve found our person. Thank you, Shari!”
“Ashley is amazing! This is our second time using her and we have always had a great experience! She truly cares for our pet like it’s her own. It is such a relief to have someone who cares as much as she does.”
“Morgan was a terrific sitter for Purrdy while I was away! She was extremely thoughtful and went out of her way by providing extra care! I would absolutely recommend Morgan for your next pet sitting need!”
About: My name is Bre, and I am a 23 year old dental hygiene college student! I have been watching my friends and family's dogs since I was 16 and I adore it! I have experience with elderly and blind dogs, and dogs of all sizes. I have my own very anxious dog, so I know how important it is that she feels safe and cared for when my family isn't around - that's why I treat every dog I watch as if they were my own❤️ I go to school 5 days a week, but Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays are half-days for me at the moment. For Tuesdays and Wednesdays, it's more difficult for me to provide frequent potty breaks for dogs. However, weekends I am able to be there all day or as needed! As I have my own dog, I prefer pet-sitting for animals in their own homes. I am able to spend time with animals in any way they need, whether that be taking them on walks or just providing company and watching TV together!
“Loved this couple! They took such great care of my home and cat. Followed all instructions and even sat down for a few minutes to let my cat sit with Laura for human interaction on her terms!”
About: I’m a DC/Metro Area native who grew up with many animal family members. I’m now living the dream in the Denver area selling vintage and antique items around the world! I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, hedgehogs, and other manner of tiny creatures. If you’re going out and want someone to hang out with your pets, I’d love to help! In addition to one time/recurring/extended visits, walks, and drop ins, my services include: -food/water refresh, brushing -park visits and bird watching -play time and snuggles -tv/lounge time -medication administration and monitoring Please note: Due to a past traumatic experience, I’m not the right person for you if your pet has a history of aggression (toward people or other dogs). Thanks for reading, and please let me know if you have any questions! I own my own business, so I am able to create my own schedule around your pet’s needs. This includes weekdays and weekends, morning to evening. I always make sure that the environment is safe for myself and your pets. When in doubt, I’ll ask. I make sure to follow all instructions precisely to keep your pet happy and safe. I also like to save your vet’s number so that I have immediate access in case of emergencies.
“This was our first time using Maggie as a sitter. She rescued us at the last minute because the other sitter canceled. I started a search for a replacement at 10:30 at night, Maggie responded and, by midnight, we scheduled a Meet and Greet for 1pm the next day. She let me know when she was on her way and arrived promptly. She met Chat, the cat, asked great questions about his food and schedule and about the house since she would be staying for 4 days. Maggie also communicated her own schedule. She sent daily pictures of Chat. The house was tidy when I returned and Chat was safe and happy. So grateful for Maggie saving my vacation at the last minute and doing a fine job. We will definitely request Maggie in the future!”
About: My whole life has revolved around taking care of and loving animals. Although I never became the veterinary that my 10 year old self wanted to be, I have become a doggy foster parent and have always had multiple pets at a time. As a parent of two very active tweens, I understand the importance of having a reliable person to help take care of your fur babies. Our family has personally had small and large dogs, as well as very ornery cats. I have experience with owning senior dogs, and have fostered young puppies. I would love the opportunity to help you and your pets out via walking or pet drop ins. I am very active and love being outdoors. Want your dogs hiking during the day? I am your gal! I am currently a stay at home Mom with a very flexible schedule. I am located in LoneTree (by Rock Canyon High School) and can quickly zip around the Highlands Ranch, LoneTree, Castle Pines areas to help take care of your beloved pets. I have a lot of experience with keeping pets safe. I will always ensure they are safely in your home before locking up. Our own dog has been attacked by other dogs and because of this, I always take extra precautions while I have dogs out on walks. I will cross the street and avoid all dogs in order to keep your pups safety my #1 priority. In the unlikely case of a bear or dog off leash, I carry a bear horn to scare off other animals.
About: I am new to the rover app but not new to being around pets and taking care of them. I love animals and not just taking care of them but playing with them and making them feel loved! I am currently working a full time job during the day but I am available in the evening and night for drop in visits Monday-Friday I fully understand that the pet and owner have routine or boundaries in their home and I plan to fully abide and respect those boundaries while taking care of and playing with the pets
“Rachel was the best person to care for our cat while we were away. She was very communicative, made sure to entertain my cat while she was there, and went above and beyond what was asked of her. I felt completely confident that my cat was in the best hands. I could not recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life! About 5 years ago I got my very own fur baby and I love being her mom:) she gets along great with other dogs as well as cats! I currently work a 9-5 Monday through Friday but I have lots of spare time on weekends and nights where I would love to spend my time walking dogs and getting exercise! My dog and kitten get along great with other animals, people and kids! We have a dog park in our neighborhood if they need to run around and meet new friends!
About: While you’re away, your furry friend will get plenty of love, cuddles, and maybe a few extra treats! I’ll keep you updated with pictures and messages so you never miss the fun. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 8 years old and I have always had a love for all creatures big or small. My experience goes far beyond traditional pet sitting as I was raised on a small farm. I just absolutely love animals. I’m comfortable with animals of all ages and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. On the weekends I can take him/her for a hike if you would like! If you have a high energy pup that needs longer distances we can take them on a bike ride. Our Aussies have loved that in the past. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I am pretty flexible and very open availability. I enjoy spending time with pets, whether it’s going for walks, playing, or simply relaxing together. I’m happy to provide consistent care, attention, and companionship throughout the week and weekends. I am available for those early morning walks an evening check in. I do have reliable transportation as well so if you need me to pick up your little guy, or big guy we can arrange that. I want your pet to feel right at home while you’re away! 🐾 If your dog or cat has a set schedule or routine, just let me know and I’ll do my best to keep it. I’ll also follow any house rules you have, including whether they’re allowed on the furniture! I’m happy to provide plenty of love, playtime, walks, and cuddles while keeping you updated with pictures and messages along the way. 🐶🐱 We have a 5 year old Bernese Mountain Dog named Waffles and a 4 month old Kitten named Gump. They both have done very well with other dogs and cats.

Jerica was absolutely amazing! I was away in another country and had no worries about my cat. She went about and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and even read his energy to communicate with me that we were on the same page. I would 100% recommend Jerica as a trustworthy friend for your pups/kitties ❤️
Katherine was the absolute best pet sitter! Being new to Colorado, my family had no one to watch our furbabies while we were away for a two-week vacation. We had never used a sitting service before and I can safely say we will be booking Katherine again for future vacations! She was responsive, caring, and thorough. Our kitties warmed right up to her and we got the cutest pictures while away. Katherine also made sure our cameras stayed positioned properly so we could check on them between visits (because you know they became a toy). I didn’t have to stress while we were away and meeting her beforehand to ensure she was a good fit solidified the confidence.
Thank you Coral for watching after my fuzzy beast! I'm quite satisfied that he didn't cause too many problems and you were able to look after him and his needs, I genuinely appreciate the cat sitting service you have provided and will be contacted for future visits and pet sitting referrals. Maverick is currently waiting by the door you as I write this.
Alexa made sure my three cats were very well cared for while I was gone for a week. She was very punctual and communicative and gave them lots of care and attention. She left detailed reports and pictures so I didn't have to worry about my kitties while I was gone.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Gateway is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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.

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 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 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.
