About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I grew up with dogs, volunteered at a horse rescue ranch, and have experienced cat-sitting. I work part-time from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. Outdoor time, walks, and fun. I will strictly follow the instructions provided by the pet parent. For dogs, they are welcome to enjoy social time with my dog in a large fenced backyard. For dogs or cats in your home, I'm safe, reliable, and respectful.

About: I've never lived a day without pets. I grew up in a house we lovingly called "the zoo," with three dogs and two cats. Coming home every day after school to that crew was the best part of my childhood. As an adult, I've walked, socialized, and cared for dogs of all sizes. Our first foster was a German Shepherd in 2019, and we were hooked. While living in Austin, we fostered 10–12 Golden Retrievers in a single year, and when the Austin Humane Society's air conditioning went out one summer, we stepped in to foster pets and keep them safe from the heat. Fostering taught me how to help animals settle into unfamiliar situations, read their body language, and adjust to each pet's personality and routine. That's exactly what I bring to every drop-in visit. We now live in Denver with our toddler, so we're taking a break from fostering, but we look forward to opening our home again when he's older. Until then, I'd love to stop by and care for your pets while you're away, whether that's a walk, a meal, medication, or just some company and attention. I'm the only person who will be caring for your pets. No one else will be assisting with visits. I'm between jobs and I have plenty of time to play with your pets. Ideal drop-ins would be between 9-6 but I'm flexible and I'm happy to do earlier and later drop-ins. Your pet's safety and comfort come first. Before the first visit, I'm happy to meet you and your pet so I can learn their routine, feeding schedule, any medications, and the little quirks that help them feel at home. During drop in visits, I'll stick to that routine as closely as possible: fresh food and water for dogs and cats, leashed walks for dogs, medications as directed, and time for play, pets, or quiet company. Before I leave, I'll double check that doors, gates, and windows are secure, and I'll treat your home with the same care I'd want for my own.

About: As a previous animal foster, I've worked with dogs in all ages of life and of all sizes. I know basic puppy training as well as medication administration for dogs with special needs. I've done in-home dog sitting for 5 years in Northern CO and am now trying to build a clientele here. I am a full-time student so my schedule is fairly flexible and allows me to accommodate most inquiries. I have required classes for about 4hrs 3 days a week and when I'm not there, I am more than happy to be with your pets. While I cannot have pets in my own home, I will follow any instructions you have regarding your pets in your own home. Some pet parents in the past have requested daily check-ins or pictures which I am more than happy to accommodate. I respect the home is the pet's environment first so I will do all I can to ensure they remain comfortable while you are away.

“Kayla was fantastic with our cat. Normally he can be a little afraid of new people but Kayla made him feel safe and taken care of, so he immediately trusted her! She sent photos and descriptions on how our baby kitty was doing. We will definitely be reaching out again when we need a sitter and 10/10 recommend Kayla!”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for dogs and my understanding of the patience and attention they need at every stage of life. I grew up with two Border Collies who both lived to be 13 years old, so I’m very comfortable with energetic dogs as well as the needs that come with caring for a senior dog. One of my dogs developed arthritis as he got older, so I understand the importance of being patient with dogs experiencing pain or mobility issues and paying close attention to changes in their behavior and comfort. I’ve also cared for dogs belonging to friends and family, so I’m comfortable adapting to different personalities, routines, and needs. I’ll treat your dog like family, follow their routine closely, and make sure they receive plenty of patience, attention, exercise, and affection while they’re in my care. I have a flexible schedule because I work as a freelance gardener, which allows me to plan my day around pet care. I’m able to dedicate time to visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship rather than having to fit pet care into a rigid schedule. I enjoy spending time with animals and can be flexible with visit times and routines. I’ll make sure each pet gets the attention, care, and consistency they need while their family is away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I’ll follow their usual feeding, walking, playtime, and medication schedule, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection while their family is away. I understand that being in their own home can help pets feel more comfortable, so I’ll give them the care and companionship they need while respecting their space and routines. I’ll also keep the home clean and tidy, provide regular updates and photos, and be attentive to any changes in their behavior, appetite, or overall well-being.

About: We’re a little obsessed with taking photos and videos, so don’t be surprised if your phone fills up with adorable updates while you’re away! We know how hard it is to leave your fur babies, and we want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re happy, loved, and having fun. I, Kaylie, worked as a dog sitter and house sitter throughout college and into my early twenties, and it was one of my favorite jobs. I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, multiple-pet households, and pets with daily medication needs. Today, our whole family loves caring for pets while their families are away. Riley is a stay-at-home mom, so your pets will have lots of companionship throughout the day, and I’m a Realtor who works from home whenever I’m not out with clients. We know every pet has their own routines, quirks, and personality, and we’ll do everything we can to make them feel safe, loved, and right at home until you return. We know your pets are family, so we’ll treat them like they’re part of ours. It is truly our privilege to love on your fur babies, spoil them, and give you complete peace of mind until you’re back home. Hi! We’re Kaylie, Riley, and our son, Oakley. I (Kaylie) worked as a dog sitter and house sitter throughout college and into my early twenties, and I absolutely loved it. I loved getting to know each pet’s unique personality, caring for them like they were my own, and giving families peace of mind while they were away. After Riley and I got married and bought our own home, life naturally became busier and I stepped away from pet sitting. Recently, we made the intentional decision to simplify life, save for future adventures, and create more flexibility for our family. That gave us the opportunity to start pet sitting together, and after completing our first stay as a family, we knew we wanted to keep doing it. Riley is a stay-at-home mom, so your pets will have plenty of company throughout the day. I’m a Realtor, which means I work from home whenever I’m not out helping clients. Together, we’re able to provide lots of attention, playtime, walks, cuddles, and consistent care. We’re not quite ready to adopt a dog of our own because we hope to travel quite a bit over the next few years. Rover has become the perfect fit—it allows us to get our dog fix, help other families travel with confidence, and build wonderful relationships with amazing pets along the way. We know your pets are family. We’ll care for them as if they were our own, keep your home clean and respected, and send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your trip knowing they’re in loving hands. We’d be honored to care for your furry family members! I will treat your animals as family just as you do! I will snuggle them and pet them and take them on walks as often as possible!

“Russell did an absolutely fantastic job of watching our cat Jiji! He was communicative, easy to work with, flexible, and extremely caring — it was our first time using River and our first time leaving her for an extended period (3 weeks), but Russell put our worries to rest. He sent updates and pictures every day and made sure to get good playtime in with her (he even stopped by a couple extra times to make sure all was well)! We returned to a happy and healthy kitty — we’ll definitely be using Russell and Stellina again to watch Jiji and highly recommend their services to any pet parent! :)”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs since I was born. I have experience with a variety of breeds and sizes- I currently have my own boxer and two cats! I have experience with training as I’ve trained two service dogs. Friends and family have also trusted me to care for their pets during day trips, weekend trips, and week long trips. My own dog has a special diet and has had medical issues requiring medication so I have experience with those types of needs as well. I am very aware of the needs each animal has and I pride myself on ensuring every animal has the best and most specialized care. My work schedule is fairly flexible and I have varying availability most days. Don’t hesitate to contact me with any scheduling questions! If I’m coming into your home, I will make sure to spend plenty of one on one time with your family member and make sure they receive plenty of love and attention! My schedule is fairly flexible right now and I update the calendar regularly so my availability should all be accurate. I work in healthcare, but primarily do home health so I am already frequently driving around and can make schedule adjustments as needed! I ensure that all questions are answered prior to watching any animals to make certain that all needs are met and any safety concerns are addressed. I also make sure to send frequent updates so you are aware that your pet is being taken care of in the best way possible!

About: I’ve had animals my whole life and love them! We currently have one dog and one cat who are very spoiled and loved. I have experience working with rescue dogs with some behavioral issues (our dog does not get along with other dogs). I also volunteered at the animal shelter in the cat room for many years. I am a stay at home Mom to a 1 year old and I am looking for additional income so I can continue to stay at home with my Son. I have a very flexible schedule and can attend to any of your pets needs while you are away or even home. I love meeting people’s pets and I will make sure to give them lots of attention and love! Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I am happy to come over to your house multiple times a day. If you need to cancel last minute or need me to come over more than originally planned I am happy to do so. I prefer to care for your pets in your home, including dog walking if you wish! I will spend time with your pets to make sure they don't get too lonely while you're gone!

About: I grew up with gentle giants (a St.Bernard named Eddie, a Newfoundland named Sprocket and another Newfoundland named Lulu). I currently own an elder cat whose quite a handful. Outside of the home, I have experience as a park ranger for a private outdoor adventure park in Tennessee teaching wildlife safety and handing wildlife encounters. I work part time gigs that fit around a life of auditions and theatre/events and freelance gigs. With enough notice, I can dedicate the time your pet requires to just them and make my other gigs and work around them. I'll only treat your location and pet with the utmost respect. I understand that our pets are family. I will treat them as I would my own son or daughter.

About: I have 6+ years of professional and personal experience with dogs; most recently I have spent time with senior dogs with a slower lifestyle and more needs. Also very well versed in dogs with emotional needs/dogs with history of abuse. I work once a week, so I have a lot of flexibility in schedule. I am available most days, exception of Sunday, morning or afternoon, on a routine basis or just one time! I care for your dog however is best needed for them. Drop in visits, walks, a companion/snuggles to help with separation anxiety, anything your pet needs that I can provide from your home.

About: My wife Alejandra and I have both cared for dogs our entire lives and currently have a four year old and an 8 month Australian Cattle pups, Arthur and Charlotte (Charlie), who we treat like our kids. Seriously. We just moved to a nice 2 bedroom apartment in Highlands Ranch with plenty of space for zoomies and to wrestle. There’s a trail next to our complex where we go on walks whenever we want. We also take full advantage of our annual pass to Chatfield State Park that they both adore and we can bring your dog(s) as well (as long as there aren’t any restrictions we need to be made aware of). We have plenty of toys, bones, and treats to share! My wife’s a teacher and I work full-time on a hybrid schedule - Mon, Thurs, Fri from home and Tuesday and Wednesday's I'm in the office downtown, but other than that I take my dogs for walks every 2-3 hours when I'm home. I request to work from home all week when I’m sitting other dogs for extended days so that your pup’s needs are always met. Our new house is spacious and pets are allowed on the furniture/bed to make it as comfortable as possible for your pet. Plenty of space for a crate if they need to be crated. Plus Arthur is a great dog-host and is able to be playful or chill depending on your dogs personality.

About: While you’re away, your furry friend will get plenty of love, cuddles, and maybe a few extra treats! I’ll keep you updated with pictures and messages so you never miss the fun. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 8 years old and I have always had a love for all creatures big or small. My experience goes far beyond traditional pet sitting as I was raised on a small farm. I just absolutely love animals. I’m comfortable with animals of all ages and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. On the weekends I can take him/her for a hike if you would like! If you have a high energy pup that needs longer distances we can take them on a bike ride. Our Aussies have loved that in the past. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I am pretty flexible and very open availability. I enjoy spending time with pets, whether it’s going for walks, playing, or simply relaxing together. I’m happy to provide consistent care, attention, and companionship throughout the week and weekends. I am available for those early morning walks an evening check in. I do have reliable transportation as well so if you need me to pick up your little guy, or big guy we can arrange that. I want your pet to feel right at home while you’re away! 🐾 If your dog or cat has a set schedule or routine, just let me know and I’ll do my best to keep it. I’ll also follow any house rules you have, including whether they’re allowed on the furniture! I’m happy to provide plenty of love, playtime, walks, and cuddles while keeping you updated with pictures and messages along the way. 🐶🐱 We have a 5 year old Bernese Mountain Dog named Waffles and a 4 month old Kitten named Gump. They both have done very well with other dogs and cats.

We needed help on very short notice and Polina was there to save the day! Bailey is an old lady and sometimes can be stubborn or even timid around new people. Polina did everything she could to keep Bailey comfy and happy until our neighbor who Bailey already knows was back in town. It’s not easy meeting a pupper on a Sunday then taking care of them a couple days later. Polina is a true pro. She loves the pets she cares for and it shows. Thanks so much!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Highlands Ranch

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Highlands Ranch is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 12,052 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Highlands Ranch. 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.

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 Highlands Ranch 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!

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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.

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.
