“Lindsey was great. She made time to meet my husband and I along with our dog Maggie the day before she actually took care of Maggie. She then kept us informed with how things were going with Maggie while we were involved in our activities in Estes Park. When we returned home that evening, Maggie was very content so we knew things had gone well. Thanks, Lindsey. You gave us peace of mind while we were away from Maggie.”
“Marcy was fantastic! We would highly recommend her for her loving, caring and conscientious sitting of your furry loved on! Our dog felt loved and truly cared for. Marcy goes above and beyond the call of duty. We are so thankful we found Marcy!”
About: grew up around dogs my whole life and have been the go-to pet sitter for neighbors, friends, and family for years. I spend my summers doing conservation work in the rockies so i’m used to long days outside so your dog will actually get worn out. Comfortable with all sizes and energy levels, and i’ll always send updates so you’re not left wondering. I work monday through thursday and get off around 5, so i’m free thursday evenings through sunday every week. that means i’ve got a solid chunk of time each weekend to give dogs real attention, not just a quick check-in between other stuff. I take it seriously and keep things low-stress. i’ll always make sure your dog is secure, fed on their normal schedule, and gets outside enough. i’m used to being outdoors and active so walks and playtime are no problem. i’ll keep you updated with how things are going so you’re not left guessing.
About: Being outside a lot, having a vehicle able to bring with and transport pups to really great spots and back. I do really love dogs a lot, but just a great attitude goes along way. Really just enjoy the experience, time, and friendship. With the amount of care and consideration I put into my daily life and routine, I aim to have the compassion and respect as you do for your pets and home. Always on leash unless other wise given an okay, fed at the particular times upon request, contained at home in provided kennels if need be. For me, keeps me busy, meeting everyone, exercise, and just great time shared. Pretty new to this website and area while giving me a chance to learn all about the things to come and destinations to be had. I have pets and watch pets for friends as they are fire fighters and police officers who work long shifts so along with my own pets I just bring everyone along I have a nice 3 bedroom with lanai and walk my pets two to three times per day. Once morning, afternoon and before bed. Feeding usually 2 times per day usually requires for special needs
About: Hi everyone! My name is Sophia and I would love to care for your pet no matter how big, small, young or old. I live in Estes Park, CO. I have 6 years of experience working with animals. I have worked in a vet clinic before, dog sat for multiple families before, volunteered at animals shelters and a therapeutic horseback riding center. I have experience administering medication as well. I will make sure your pet has all of their (and your) needs met. I am willing to meet your pet beforehand just to make sure you find the right fit for them! Contact me if you have any questions or concerns. I am a part time photographer so my schedule is flexible! I update my calendar on Rover daily. I would love to work something out that fits you and your pets needs best! I have experience dog sitting for multiple families in town and most of them are repeat clients. All of the families have different needs to be met and I am accommodating to all concerns.
“This is the second time we have had Kaya watch our poodle, she was very relaxed when we got home, and house was as we left better than we left it. Would have her watch Anya again.”
“Lewis was a wonderful dog sitter! Our dogs were well taken care of, and he left our house clean and tidy. He provided ample updates so we didn't have to worry about our dogs while we were away. He also watered some plants for me. We'll certainly use him again!”
“Patricia is our #1 Rover because of the way our nervous dogs come out of their shells with her. She sends pictures of them all piled on the bed together with her - that's how we know that they feel comfortable and safe, and that means the world to us when we're away. She also makes the extra effort to make sure the house is clean and tidy when we come home (we clean before we leave but I swear it looks better when we come back), and that's just an added bonus.”
“AmberLynn was amazing. We initially reached out to her to watch Karl while we attended the Highlands Festival, but she really made a huge impact on our trip when my GF was diagnosed with acute appendicitis and had to go into emergency surgery. AmberLynn not only showed up at a moment's notice and then did a great job, she put both of our minds at ease and made sure that Karl had a great day. She did a phenomenal job, and we'll hire her again next year, hopefully under less stressful circumstances. 10/10 dog sitter.”
“Nicole did a great job taking care of our young, energetic Labrador for just over a week in our home. Ruby was well-cared for and Nicole left our home in perfect condition. She was easy to contact and had great communication. Thank you!”
“We just went to Europe for over a week over Christmas and left our precious (yet crazy) crazy pups with Alex! She did such a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and made us feel very comfortable leaving them in her care. She kept me in the loop with everything that was going on with our dogs, and she sent lots of pictures as well!! Our dogs are on quite a few medications and have a more complicated meal routine— she did a great job with that and got them to take their pills every day. She left our house in mint condition as well— everything was just as we left it and very clean! I also really appreciated her flexibility. We didn’t know if we would be home on time due to canceled flights, and she was willing to stay and help us out as long as we needed! It can be really hard to find a good, trustworthy person to take care of your fur babies and home when you’re out of town, so I am very happy we found Alex! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a good dog/house sitter.”
“Peyton was really great with our 1 year old dog! She is very reliable and worked well with our dog’s quirks. Our dog adores her and we appreciate her great communication and puppy pics.”
“Joe was terrific with our two Irish Red & White Setters. We found Joe to be reliable, trustworthy and most important great with dogs. We will absolutely request Joe again.”
“Sarah did a wonderful job. This was our first time using Rover and we were a little apprehensive about leaving our two dogs and two cats with someone we didn’t know. Sarah was knowledgeable and great with our pets and kept us updated with several photos and short briefs a few times each day. Highly recommend! We’ll definitely ask her to housesit again.”
“Sadie was super communicative and amazing to work with. Both of our animals were clearly relaxed and happy when we walked back in. House was orderly and tidy, always very thoughtful gesture. I would definitely work with Sadie again!”
“Allison stayed with my dogs for a few days and showed them so much love and attention. She kept me informed with updates while I was away, which meant a lot to me. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals, and my dogs seemed very comfortable with her.”
“Matt was a fantastic pet sitter for our cats, Zuko and Winnie. We always had very clear communication, he sent us great pictures every day, and he took great care of our cats and our house. Our cats loved him.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Glen Haven
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Glen Haven on Rover is $16.65 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,103 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Glen Haven. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Glen Haven walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Glen Haven maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Glen Haven choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

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.
