About: I've been caring for dogs my entire life and bring a calm, attentive and intuitive approach to every dog i welcome into my home. I grew up caring for dogs and have owned both Golden Retrievers and a long-haired Dachshund, giving experience with a wide range of temperaments-from energetic and playful to gentle and sensitive. I provide a structured, safe and loving environment where dogs can feel at ease while maintaining their normal routines. I'm highly attentive to each dogs individual needs, whether it's exercise, companionship or simply a calm space to relax. Having hosted many dogs in my home and being a former dog owner looking for care over the years, I understand how important it is for both pets and owners to feel confident and comfortable. My 9-year-old son Bobby is kind, respectful and experienced with dogs adding to the warm, family style environment your dog will be a part of. Nestled in Red Cliff, our home offers a true mountain escape- endless fresh air, trails, a dogs dream playground I currently have full availability, I'm home throughout the day to provide loving, attentive care, regular walks, playtime and calm, consistent routine for every dog. Our home features a partially fenced yard, a peaceful low flow creek on the property and easy access to Red Cliffs dog friendly trails for leashed or unleashed adventures in the backcountry.
“Alex was awesome and helped me get the pups out at my work while I had a day in the field. One of my pups needs medication, and he had no problem helping with that as well! Super appreciated his kindness!”
About: I love dogs! After losing two of my own pups, I’m not ready to be a full dog mom again, however I’d love to care for yours while you’re away. While you’re away you can leave your dog with me and I can guarantee the highest level of certainty and peace of mind. I’ll care for your dog like they are my own. I’ve watched small, medium, large dogs. Dogs that are low maintenance and dogs that need higher levels of attention. If my profile is active it is because I’m either available to watch your dog on weekends or I have extra availability. I can be flexible to your dogs schedule and needs. Currently I am not hosting dogs at my house. Only available for dog walks and house sitting. Again I can adapt to your dogs needs.
About: Not a professional dog trainer but I did raise my golden retriever since he was 8 weeks old and thought him a lot of commands I work full time in a restaurant so I mostly have the availability during my days off Monday/Tuesday but still open to help after/before work as well I live in Lionsridge in West Vail, this apartment complex allows dogs and has plenty of walking space around with some dog parks nearby as well
“Corrie was super amazing!!! She sent such great pictures of what they did together, and took our pup on a super fun adventure through the aspens! Looked so beautiful!! Super thankful to have crossed her on rover!! Will absolutely recommend her, and hopefully be able to have her take our pup in the future! We stop in vail every summer! Loved her, and our pup was super happy with her!”
About: I’ve been caring dogs of all sizes and personalities. I truly treat every pet if they were my own. I know how important it is to feel at ease when leave in your pet with someone else. I prioritize safety, communication, and lots of affection, my goal is for both you and your pet feel completely comfortable and confident while you’re away. I’m current available full time. Which allow me to provide consistent supervision and personalized attention throughout the day. Your pet no will be alone for long periods. I live in a secure second floor apartment, providing a safe and calm environment for pet. I also have access to safe walking areas nearby, providing daily walks one or twice a day depending on the clients request..
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and currently have two dogs and two cats of my own, so caring for pets is a huge part of my everyday life. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, boundaries, and way of communicating, and I take the time to make sure each pet feels comfortable and safe with me. I’ve also worked closely with professional dog trainers with my own dogs, which has given me experience with training techniques, reinforcing good behaviors, maintaining consistency with commands, and understanding canine body language. I’m very attentive to the signals animals give and am comfortable adjusting my approach. Animals tend to warm up to me quickly, and I genuinely love building trust with them. Whether your pet wants lots of playtime and attention or prefers someone who will patiently let them come around at their own pace, I’m happy to meet them where they are. Most importantly, I’ll care for your pets with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own. My schedule is currently wide open, as I am searching for a full time job. I am excited to be able to pet sit in the mean time :) I prioritize making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I'm attentive to body language and will always respect each pet's individual boundaries and personality. I'm happy to follow your normal feeding, walking, training, and medication routines so your pet has as much consistency as possible while you're away. I'll also be sure to send as many pictures as possible, because I also enjoy receiving those!
About: I’ve taken care and owned cats and dogs my entire life and have taken care of many of my neighbors and friends pets while they were away or on vacation. I’m currently working part-time until Christmas so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your precious animal. Even after Christmas my availability should be pretty open. Dogs are always leashed when outside. Cats sometimes come and go or they are an inside cat and need fresh water, food and a clean litter box
About: Helping care for pets is especially meaningful to me because my own pets are an extension of who I am. From outdoor adventures to cozy cuddles, I treat every furry friend like family and love keeping owners updated along the way. My dogs get walked twice a day and let out midday, we would rather be outside. I usually get out earlier in the morning due to the heat! I manage dogs in my home and in others’ homes with a balance of freedom, structure, and respect. In my own space, dogs have free range with a few furniture boundaries, constant access to fresh water, and regular bathroom breaks. When caring for pets in another home, I strictly follow all homeowner rules and routines to ensure pets feel comfortable and consistency is maintained.
About: I've been taking care of and raising animals since I was a young child. Throughout my life I've owned many different breeds of dog, as well as sat for friends and family pets. I love to play with pets who are willing, or just hang out with them. My schedule is currently wide open for pet care as I've recently moved here from out of state. I can stay in your pets home, or just check in on them throughout the day. I'm currently not offering sitting in my home because I've got an old pup of my own, but I care for others pets as if they're my own. However if I'm pet sitting in someone else's home I follow the guidelines I'm given to the letter!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since a very young age and I’ve always had one or multiple in my family!! Now I have my puppy named Figgy and we’re both ready to make some new friends and create fun memories with them!! Coming the off season I have a lot more free time, I’m always off in the mornings and my boyfriend is always home in the afternoon so it works out perfectly for having a happy and always accompanied pet :) I try to be as careful as I can to follow a pets routine wether that be in my house or theirs. I think it’s all built from respect and trust.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 412 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gilman. 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 Gilman. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
