About: I have been around pets my whole life. I understand wanting your pet to feel safe and happy while you're away. I appreciate written instructions and will follow them precisely! I am a college student so I can drop by in between classes as you need me to. I also own a little fur baby of my own and will love yours just as much. I will make sure they don't feel too anxious, clean up as needed, have plenty of food, cuddles, and affection while you're away from them.
About: I’ve grown up with multiple pets (dogs, cats, fish) since I was a kid. As an adult, I’ve lived with various pets and regularly pet sit for friends and family. I currently nanny part-time during the weem, so my schedule is flexible. This provides the ability to do multiple pet check-ins throughout the day and overnight stays if requested. My preference is to take care of your pets at your home, as this environment is familiar and safe for your pets. If that is not an option, I am more than happy to board your pets at my home.
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
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 have experience working with dogs big and small. I walk, feed, and bathe my dog. I enjoy all animals though. As long as you give me all the instructions I’ll follow them. I’ll also give them affection and attention so they aren’t so lonely while you’re gone. I currently have a part time job but I’m looking for something to do that’s going to give me a little extra joy. I usually only work a couple hours a day. I’m interested in helping keep your animal happy and healthy taking them to potty or just for a walk so that they aren’t stuck in the house all day whatever is needed.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life! I most recently had two dogs, a chihuahua and rotty mix. One big and one small dog! I currently live in a tiny apartment, so I try to find ways to get my dog fix in. I regularly volunteer to walk dogs at local shelters here in Grand Junction. I have experience with small and large dogs of all age ranges. I’m punctual with my schedules and can be relied on to make timely visits or give medications/food. I’m also comfortable house sitting your home and keeping up on all your chores/needs while you are away! I work seasonally for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, so in my off season I have lots of extra time to take care of pups I have a gentle demeanor when meeting/walking new to me dogs. I can adjust my care to suit whatever needs your dog may have
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.
About: I’ve had cats and interacted with dogs my whole life. I have been house/pet sitting for friends and family since I was 12 and have cared for many different pet households. I have bathed and medicated multiple different dogs and cats and walked dozens of dogs. I’m currently available 24/7 for visits, dog walking, and house sitting. My schedule is very flexible and i’m willing to work odd hours if needed. I love meeting new animals and am always careful with nervous pets. I am great at following instructions and always respectful of pets and belongings.
About: I've always had cats and dogs in my life and cannot imagine life without them. Our pets are our family! Rest assured that your furry babies will receive the same care, attention, and compassion as my own do. I work full-time but have a fairly flexible schedule, and generally have evenings and weekends available to drop-in on your furry friends for some play-time and potty breaks. Friday-Sunday have my widest availability (all day), but with enough notice I can usually visit in the evenings. My number one rule is respect. Your pets and your home will receive my utmost respect during my visit, and I will leave everything how I found it when I arrived.
About: **I’ve got you with the photo/text updates ALWAYS** I’ve taken care of ALL types of animals (pets, exotic, farm, reptiles, birds) since I was a little kid! I partially grew up on a farm, and have lots of experience handling and caring for animals. I have no issues with breaking up animal conflict, administering medication, and am hardworking individual. I currently am the proud mother of one leopard gecko and cat! Please reach out for any pet needs! Let’s set it up! Let’s communicate! I am an athletic trainer at the university. My schedule can be a bit chaotic, so jobs that are requested at least 1-2 weeks in advance will work the best for us. I have a flexible day to day schedule, but would NOT be appropriate for families who need constant care/oversight. I would love to talk more about setting up dates/times that work for us and your pet!!!! When I am housesitting, I make sure to try and maintain as normal of a schedule, environment, and atmosphere as possible. I maintain respectful boundaries to the animal — as it is their house too!
About: I am a lifetime animal lover with experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I have pet-sit for friends and family for 15 years and have always been known to be someone they can trust to take care of their animals. I currently have a senior dog so I know the extra care that goes into taking care of older dogs, but he was high energy for most of his life so I am accustomed to keeping dogs active and mentally stimulated as needed to keep them happy. Rover is my full time job so my full attention will be taking care of your pup. Whatever their needs, I can meet them! I will typically schedule visits, walks, and playtime between the hours of 7am and 5pm but can adjust based on the needs of your pet. If they need to be let out right before bed, need medication at specific hours, or anything else, we can make it work! I will care for your pup just like they're my own, completely tailoring my visit to whatever makes them happiest; whether you have a high energy dog who loves endless belly rubs and playtime or they’re shy and just want a quiet buddy to sit with them. I also treat your home with total respect, keeping their exact feeding, walking, and house routines on track so they stay stress-free while you're away. If wanted, I will make sure to send regular pictures and updates so you can rest assured that your dog is being well cared for.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Grand Junction
Nicholas has been a great addition to our "Weekly Rover Walker's". Because I'm not able to walk her myself I rely on Nicholas to care for Xena as he would his own. He's included her in hikes with his own 2 dogs which is helpful for her to part of a pack & get to know some of his own family. Walks with Nicholas have been guaranteed to cover ~3 miles/hr. Xena definitely seems to benefit being a high energy gal herself!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Grand Junction. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Grand Junction. On Rover:
- 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
