“Jasper was responsive and easy to communicate with. He sent lots of photos of our dogs and even our grumpy 13yr old senior dog loved him. Stayed with our 3 dogs for 3 days. Will definitely have him watch them again.”
About: I have had dogs my entire life, also have done dog sitting for neighbors growing up. For a while, I was the manager of a dog daycare/boarding/grooming/retail store servicing any where from 10-50 dogs per day.

“Andie took care of my dog, my horse (and 2 others on the property!), and my plants while I was away, which was no small task.

“Kat, watched our cat for two weeks while we were on a trip. She took great care of him and sent us messages about how he was doing while we were away. She left the house in excellent shape after staying there for the duration. She is easy to work with and responds quickly. Would highly recommend.”
About: I’ve been caring for fur babies since I graduated high school, giving both puppies and senior dogs the special attention they need. I love animals of every shape and size and treat them like my own—because let’s be honest, they run the household anyway. Your pet will get a happy, stress-free stay with plenty of love, snuggles, and top-tier spoiling. I work a full-time job during the day, but I’m available for drop-ins and visits in the late afternoons and evenings. I’m also free all day on Sundays, as well as one select weekday depending on my schedule. If you communicate your needs ahead of time, I’ll always do my best to make it happen. Your fur baby’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I come to your home so your pet can stay in their favorite place, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. I follow your instructions carefully and keep your home secure, tidy, and respected. You’ll always get clear updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I’ve grown up with a love for animals. In my home, I’ve cared for dogs, bunnies, birds, and horses to name a few! Animals are a major part of my life and I will always treat your pets like my own. I currently run my own business so my schedule is flexible! I can usually rearrange my schedule to fit in your dogs potty, walk, or feeding schedule! I want your dogs to feel like I’m an extension of your family, so however you care for your pets, I will happily follow your routines. I want to keep them happy and comfortable just as if you were home!
About: I love animals and have 5 dogs and 2 cats of my own back in Montana. I have raised dogs and cats my whole life. I grew up doing 4-h and take pride in my work. My daily routine consists of teaching yoga classes up and down valley so I have a lot of flexibility and attentiveness to your pet pets. I care for there’s animals with love and affection. Making sure they have food and water. I like to take walks personally and would love a furry friend to join me.
About: I’ve grown up with all sorts of dogs differing in size from chihuahuas to golden doodles. Within the past two years I started pet sitting for a friend while she was on vacation (six dachshunds) and loved it enough to make it my side hobby! I’m currently a full time College student taking online courses at CMC, so I’ll have plenty of spare time to care for your animals throughout the day/week! While my pets are allowed to roam our property as much as they please under constant supervision, I completely understand that some fur-baby’s are runners and must stay on the leash or in a fenced in areas. I’m completely flexible to any requirements or concerns you have for your fur-baby!
“Kamryn was great with our Bernedoodle while we were away for 12 days. She stayed at our house. The house was very clean when we came home and our dog was happy. All reports we received from her were positive. It was our best experience bringing someone in to our house through Rover for overnight stay. We would absolutely hire Kamryn again.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. Growing up on a farm, my family always had multiple dogs and often cats, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I love spending time with pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. After college, I regularly pet sat and looked after my parents’ farm while they traveled, sometimes for trips lasting up to a month. This meant caring for multiple animals, sticking to feeding schedules, and making sure everything ran smoothly while they were away. I also helped raise and train my girlfriend’s dog from puppyhood, giving me experience with basic obedience, leash manners, socialization, and establishing a consistent routine. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet companion, I’ll treat them with the same care, patience, and attention I’d give my own. I work Tuesday through Friday from 6:00 AM to 4:00 PM, but outside of those hours my schedule is very flexible. I’m available for early morning, evening, overnight, and weekend care, with full availability Saturday through Monday. I’m reliable, responsive, and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, so I’ll take the time to follow your instructions closely, maintain their normal routine, and provide plenty of attention and care. I’ll keep your home clean and secure, make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always used properly, and treat both your pets and your home with the same respect I would my own. You can count on regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

Marissa has been walking my husky, Willow, for a while now. She's reliable, communicative, and you can tell from the photos that Willow loves spending time with her. This was my first time having Marissa do overnight sitting, and everything went smoothly. My return flight was delayed and I ended up getting home a day later than planned. I was incredibly grateful that Marissa was able to be stay an extra night.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Gypsum on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 299 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gypsum. 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 Gypsum 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 Gypsum 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 Gypsum 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.
