About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. From energetic puppies and senior dogs to shy cats and everything in between, I’ve developed a calm, intuitive approach that helps pets feel safe and loved in their own environment. I also take great pride in keeping homes clean, secure, and peaceful while you’re away, and I always provide updates so you never have to wonder how your pets are doing. Your animals (and your home!) are in good hands with me. I work a full time job Sun-Thu 8a-4:30p. I can stay at your house, take care of pets on my off days, or before/after I get off work I always match the energy and needs of the pets I care for, whether they’re in the mood to play, need time to adjust, or just want a quiet treat. I also make sure to follow all care instructions and routines set by the owner to keep pets happy and stress-free.

About: Since I was a teenager I have worked with animals and loved every minute of it. From working in rescues, doggy daycares, and even as a vet tech in animal hospitals I truly love all animals and have lots of experience caring for numerous species. I’m currently staying at home working on building my own business so I have plenty of free time on my hands to care for your loved fur babies. I have previous experience with the medical side of pets needs whatever it may be from special cases to patching up small wounds. At my home I also have a fenced in yard and a very friendly dogs for company.

About: As a career animal welfare professional, I'm ready to bring my decades of experience in animal care, veterinary care and animal handling to you and your home to ensure you have total peace of mind and your pets are cared for and safe while you're away. My entire professional career has been in the animal welfare field. I've worked as a cruelty investigator in both major metropolitan as well as rural agricultural regions. I've worked on farm animal sanctuaries as well as in city shelters. I'm still very involved in animal rescue through disaster response as well as large scale animal cruelty case deployments. Currently, I work for/co-founded an organization which provides low-cost veterinary care services to underserved areas in the region. As someone who utilizes Rover heavily for pet sitting services while traveling for work, I know just how important it is to have a service like this available as well as what a trusting, reliable sitter can do for peace of mind while out of town and away from you pets. I currently work from home (when not traveling for work) which allows me to devote full days to pet care while sitting nearby in my home office. I have a large, fully fenced yard. Your dogs will be able to spend as much, or as little, time outside as they desire. I have two resident dogs who are very welcoming of all four-legged (and two-legged) visitors and will be more than happy to share all their favorite toys and most comfortable spots on the couch.

“Anne is lovely, punctual, and communicative, and so patient with our skittish cats. She's managed to befriend one of them! This is the second time we've hired Anne and I'd be delighted to hire her again in the future.”

“Shelby took great care of our cat who needs some extra attention, including daily medication and has a bit of separation anxiety. We appreciated the photos she sent and comments about how he was doing while we were away. We highly recommend Shelby and look forward to booking her again in the future.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. For the last 15 years, I’ve owned very high energy hunting dogs, and love being able to take them on long walks, hiking in the mountains, or just play ball in the back yard. I’ll help with any kind of training/socialization a puppy or dog might need, you just have to let me know if there are behaviors you need help working on. I’m happy to drop in to check on dogs and cats of any size. If I can help out by taking a pup for a wash or anything extra like that, just ask. Willing to help transport, can come feed and medicate, as well as hang out and play for a while. I do have my own pups, and so I cannot do overnight stays at this time. Weekdays, I am only available after 6pm! I just moved back to the Grand Junction area and am working at settling into life back in the valley. I’d love to help you out with your animals! My pups are my family, they go every where with me (unless it’s to someone else’s house, of course). They get daily off leash runs in the north desert or at the family farm in Fruita. I’m not offering boarding at this time because of my own pups and lack of space.

“Sarah was wonderful with Louie!!!! She took great care of him!”

About: I’m on a massive mission over the coming months! I’m working every extra hour I can to fund a dream trip to explore the UK. To get there, I’m bringing my 20+ years of pet care experience to your front door.I’ve spent my life caring for cats and dogs, including high-energy breeds like Huskies and Labrador Retrievers. I know that while I’m planning my upcoming travels, your absolute priority is your pet’s safety and routine. I specialize in keeping pets calm, exercised, and consistent while you’re away. By booking with me, you aren't just getting a sitter with decades of hands-on experience—you’re helping me reach a lifelong travel goal! Because I work gig-based security and freelance jobs, I have a unique kind of flexibility that most 9-to-5ers don't! I meticulously plan my schedule in advance, which means when I commit to your pet, they have my undivided attention. I’m not rushing off to an office; I’m there because I want to be. I’m organized, reliable, and dedicated to keeping your pet’s routine consistent—all while I hustle toward my goal of seeing the Sugababes in Wales this July! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow feeding instructions carefully, make sure water is always fresh, and handle litter box or potty breaks consistently. I also spend time giving attention and comfort based on each pet’s personality—whether that’s playtime, walks, or simply being nearby so they feel safe. I always respect the client’s home and keep things clean and organized.

About: Hi there! I'm Nicole and animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up surrounded by all kinds of pets—large and small dogs, cats, horses, chickens, guinea pigs—you name it! I know every animal has their own personality and needs, and I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I’ve also provided in-depth medical care for my own senior dog, so I’m comfortable administering medications, handling special diets, and giving pets the extra attention they may need during recovery or as they age. Whether it's a high-energy puppy, a shy rescue cat, or a quirky flock of chickens, I’m here to help them feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Let me know how I can support your pets—I’d love to meet them! I currently work just 4 days a week, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pets! I'm available: Evenings on weekdays (perfect for after-work walks, dinner visits, or check-ins) Full availability on my days off (including mornings, afternoons, and evenings) Weekends — flexible and open for pet sitting, drop-ins, or extended care Whether you need a quick visit, regular walks, or overnight care, I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pets are well cared for and loved. Every pet is unique, and I always tailor my care based on their individual needs, routines, and personalities. Whether I’m watching pets in your home or welcoming them into mine, their comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. In your home:
 When caring for pets in their own home, I do my best to keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible. That includes feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any special instructions you provide—medications, favorite toys, calming techniques, etc. I make sure to keep the space tidy and give plenty of updates so you know your pets are in good hands. In my home:
 If your pet is staying with me, they’ll have a calm, pet-friendly environment where they’re treated like family. I make sure they have a cozy space to relax, lots of attention and affection, and safe play areas. I only accept pets who are a good fit for the environment, and I always do a meet-and-greet first to make sure everyone feels comfortable. My goal is to give your pets a stress-free, loving experience while you're away—and give you peace of mind, too.

“Angels was great with Coco, our dog and Reese’s and Dancer, our cats. Coco is anxious with new people, and Angela won her over. It was great using Rover and now we know that we can plan trips without worrying about who will watch our pets. Thank you Angela and River!”

“We are very happy to have found Christine. Our cat is super shy with strangers and usually hides from them but he actually showed up and said hi to her within the first meeting. He was as affectionate with her as he is to us. She maintained our cat’s health and emotions. She perfectly excuted things we asked for and kept us updated with photos and videos of our cat every day. She even helped us with other things like watering plants and picking up mail. I can say she is special and a cat whisperer. Maybe Jackson Galaxy level of mastermind. I’m sure she is good with dogs as well. She will be our regular cat sitter. Highly recommended.”

“Suzanne took excellent care of our dog! Dependable and caring! Thank you Suzanne!”

About: I have help out my friends and family for many years with their pets. I have taken care of many puppies and kittens including my own. I am a college student at Colorado Mesa University. I am free to do drop-ins and walks aro my class schedule. During the summer I am free during the day time. I love playing with animals, my dogs like to play hide and seek so it really makes them work their brain as to where I am. I like to follow the route the owners have with the pet so it doesn't stress the animal out if possible.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets for a while now, and am more than happy to play, snuggle, run, and care for yours as well. I work part time only on weekdays so I am available to play with your animals most of the time. I can’t wait to spend time with them. I get up early in the morning to let pets outside while I fill up their bowls for food and water. I cuddle and play with them all day. I love to make them feel loved.
