“Kaitlyn was very responsive, kind, and she took great care of our pets! She was also very transparent and always reached out if she was unsure of something. We will be booking with her for our future needs.”
“Grant went above and beyond taking care of my animal and even went above and beyond with his attention to detail and care for my apartment. I will definitely be asking him to come back in the future”
“Aislyn was absolutely wonderful during her drop-in visit with our pups. From the moment she arrived, she was warm, engaging, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. Our Pomsky took to her right away, and the little one was warming up to her. Shiba Inus aren’t easily impressed 🙂 She was attentive, kind, and made sure they felt comfortable and cared for the entire time. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. You can tell she genuinely enjoys what she does, and it shows in the way she interacts with pets. We would happily trust Aislyn with our pups again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and truly great with animals.”
“I had the pleasure of having Skyler drop in to care for my baby girl and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! Skyler was punctual, friendly, gave isla plenty of attention, and followed all the instructions I provided. I loved receiving regular updates and photos during the visit, which really put my mind at ease. Skyler went above and beyond, and I’ll definitely be booking them again for future visits. Highly recommended!”
About: Hi! I’m Esme, a huge animal lover and proud pet parent. I have a Mini American Shepherd named Kita, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family members. While I adore dogs, I’m also a big cat lover! Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, chasing toys, or simply having someone keep them company while you’re away, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. I know every pet has their own unique personality, and I love taking the time to get to know them. From energetic pups to shy kitties, my goal is always to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members and become their new bestie! 🐾💕 Animals are already a huge part of my life! As a dog mom to my Mini American Shepherd, Kita, pet care is built into my daily routine. My days are filled with walks, playtime, training, and lots of cuddles. I genuinely love spending time with animals, so caring for pets feels less like work and more like something I enjoy. Whether it’s a dog who loves adventure or a cat who just wants a quiet companion, I love getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to the routines they’re familiar with, so I always try to follow their normal schedule as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh water, meals, and, of course, lots of love. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs. Some pets love long walks and play sessions, while others prefer cuddles on the couch or a quiet companion nearby. I’m happy to adapt to what makes your pet feel most comfortable. In a client’s home, I respect both your pet’s routine and your home, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your furry family member is doing. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.
“Tamarine took great care of Sunny and provided detailed daily updates of each visit. It made it easier being away from my pup knowing she was in such good hands. Thank you!”
“Maggie has been awesome with our Bernese Mountain Dog puppy! From the very beginning she has been quick at responding and answering any questions. She arrived every day at our scheduled time, sent pictures and information on his various activities, and updated us when necessary to anything extra we may have needed to know. We will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Jonathon is such a great person and I am so grateful to him for such caring and conscientious visits with my cats. He was communicative and always goes the extra mile to make sure everything for each cat was taken care of. It was an incredible solace that he was with my fur babies while I had to be away because of my Dad’s passing…I didn’t have to worry about anything and am so grateful to him. I will definitely have Jonathon care for the cats again anytime I need help with my animals! Even my shy cats warmed up to him for pets and purrs - that says a lot!! Thanks Jonathon!!”
“Kacie did drop in visit for my cat and followed all instructions I left. She was very on top of communication too. I also ended up extending by trip by a week pretty last minute and Kacie was able to continue taking care of my cat.”
“My cat , Violet, loves having Anelia come to take care of her. She is very shy with most people but she comes right out for Amelia. I get great pictures everyday. Amelia does a great job!”
“Amy was THE best! She truly went above and beyond to take extra care with our special needs senior. Anxiety exacerbates our pups illness and, thankfully, we had zero issues. I have no doubt that is a direct result of Amy's attention to detail in regards to our girl's needs.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have cared for several at a time, so juggling routines and personalities comes naturally. Today, we share our home with an 8-year-old Goldendoodle who keeps me smiling. We have had puppies to Senior dogs and understand everything that entails. Because I work from home most days, I’m able to give pets plenty of time and attention throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule that allows to be around the majority of the day if needed. Our home has a secure, fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time. We also have a friendly Goldendoodle who enjoys playtime and does well with other dogs, making our home a comfortable and social environment for visiting pets.

Lindsay was great for our two Frenchies who have never been left with anyone besides their “parents”. She is prompt, a great communicator, super flexible and most importantly she took great care of the pups (one also requires eye drops 3x a day). I would absolutely recommend Lindsay and will definitely try to book with her in the future. Thanks Lindsay!
Madeline was super pleasant and calm with my girl Zoey! She enjoyed long walks and seemed very happy upon my return from vacation her communication was amazing and always sent photos and updates while remaining very respectful! We will be using her again if she will have us!
Alexis was a fantastic sitter! She checked in on my bird, Smokey, for 2 weeks while we were on vacation. She shared daily reports cards and was excellent with communication. She also played some music for Smokey and spent time with her to make sure she was happy, which I appreciated! I would highly recommend her and will be requesting her again for future trips!
Rayne took amazing care of my pet and treated them like family and was reliable, communicative, and sent regular updates that gave me peace of mind. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable pet sitter!
Skyler truly goes above and beyond! From the moment we did the meet and greet, I knew Dobby would be in the safest, kindest hands. We had a mix up during our drop in where my parents accidentally left a door locked that should not have been. Skyler stayed way beyond her scheduled time to ensure she got in and that our pup was okay and taken care of. I could not have asked for a better sitter

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
