“Reliable and flexible. We have had to change care plans often and Jennifer always accommodate. Stress free travel for us and we come home to happy kitties!”
About: Blake and Maddie have had pets of all kinds growing up, so we understand the value of companionship. We provide unconditional love to all the pets who do the same. We are comfortable with all breeds, big and small, and all ages of pets, young and senior. We currently have plenty of free time during the week to provide and care for pets and their many needs. We communicate effectively when we have other obligations and make sure pets are safe and secure no matter the time of day. We live in a safe, comfortable condominium complex that has plenty of grass and walking routes for pets of all shapes and sizes. Our condo unit is clean with minimal obstructions so pet's feel free to explore and find a cozy spot. We have no pets of our own, but enjoy the companionship of any fuzzy friend.
“Audrey was amazing! She took wonderful care of my cat and my home, kept me updated with photos, and was incredibly attentive and thoughtful. I felt completely at ease knowing everything was in great hands. I’d absolutely book her again!”
About: I’ve had 20+ years of animal care experience, with my own pets and helping family and friends with theirs. Our pets are a big part of our family. We have an Aussie, Maple. I’m a stay at home mom to our 2 kids under 5, who are also big animal lovers! I’ll give your fur babies as much time and love as they need. Send a booking request with any special accommodations! I look forward to meeting and caring for your pups! I’m a stay at home mom so I have open availability usually throughout the week and on weekends. Having a dog myself, I’m used to the basic routine of pet needs. I have a fenced in backyard and live in a walkable neighborhood. Our home is child-proofed so in turn is also safe for curious animals. We have separate areas for our children’s toys.
About: I have grown up with dogs all of my life and have enjoyed the happiness they bring to people’s lives. I like positive reinforcement. And love playing fetch in the yard or tug of war. I’m available every morning until 1:00pm with the exception of Wednesday’s, and am available most Fridays and Saturdays. I am very aware that dogs need attention during the day and that’s hard to do with either multiple jobs or a full-time job and a family. I would love to help ease that burden for you and your pup! I’m an easy-going, fun guy who knows and understands what an impact animals can have on a person and their healing powers. They make us happy, let’s keep them happy as well!
“Kelly was great. She came to look after my cat over the holidays when I was away, and I knew he was in good hands with her. She took plenty of pictures of them playing and gave me status updates that everything was ok. On the last day, there was an issue with my furnace and she let me know right away and offered to come back and make sure everything was ok, which put my mind at ease. That was something she didn't have to do, but went the extra step to make the experience a little less stressful for me. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again in the future.”
“Thank you Jenny! This was our first time using Rover and couldn't be more pleased. I have one dog with diabetes and requires insulin and is also blind, so boarding her would have been very stressful. All the pictures she sent made me feel at ease and wasn't stressed on my vacation. My dogs loved their walks and when we walked in I think they wanted her ❤”
About: I am a stay home Mom with 2 kids who love animals! We have 2 dogs at home that get along well with others and spend most of their day lounging in the backyard in the sunshine and we play outside with them. We’d love to have your dogs come over to play! I also enjoy the excersise of walking so I’m happy to come walk your dog while you are at work. I understand the stress of leaving a dog home all day, and I know they love the breaks to go potty and the attention so I will play with them and give them good company while you are busy. I’m excited to meet you and spend time with your furry kids! Molly
About: I may be new to pet sitting professionally, but I’ve spent years living with and caring for animals. I lived with a dog for over two years and grew up in a home with cats. Feeding, cleaning, playing, and understanding their behavior came naturally. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets. I’m excited to bring that love and care to your furry friend! I have a very flexible schedule and can easily adapt to your needs. Whether it’s a midday walk or a weekend stay, I’m happy to make time for your pet. I’m available throughout the week and can accommodate last-minute requests as well! I’m happy to come to your home to care for your pet in their familiar environment. I can take them for walks, feed them, spend quality time, and make sure they feel safe and loved. I always aim to respect your space and follow any specific routines or instructions.
“Amy has been an absolute god send with our 10 month old, baby boy Jax! She has been so kind and shared her incredible vet tech knowledge with us while we help get Jax through some tummy issues. She is a great support in our efforts in helping Jax become a well-behaved dog and leaves great and detailed information from their check-ins. I hope to use Amy for our boy for as long as we can have her!! Amy is the best!!!!”
“Needed someone to take my dogs out while I was at work, and Sarah was fantastic! She was very patient with my anxious/timid dog which was much appreciated and was very accommodating to a changing schedule. Would recommend to anyone needing someone to look after their pups!”
“Bridget was extremely friendly, and very caring toward our cat, Azula. Her experience with diabetic cats in the past made us feel trustworthy. She did an incredible job with Azula and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
About: Hi there! I’m a dog lover living in Highlands Ranch. I’m excited to provide a loving home for your pup when you’re gone! With lots of walks, belly rubs and adventures. I have a 5 year old and 20 month old who both adore dogs and love to run and play in the yard together. I took care of animals my whole life (horses, dogs, cats ...) and started to walk the dogs of our neighbors when I was a kid. I have experience in walking all kinds of breeds: from pugs to energetic Goldendoodles and senior dogs. My special skills: - I have endurance when it comes to walking. No way is too long for me, no pace too fast. - I have a calming voice (at least that’s what people tell me), so pets seem to feel comfortable very quickly around me. - I can take pretty pictures of your dog. And as a social media manager, I can also give you tips how to present them. ;) - I can talk German to your dog. Yay! - Last but not least: I’m very reliable. :) I’m a freelancer currently working from home, that means I have a very flexible schedule. I can board your furry friend everyday of the week! We have a fenced backyard - perfect to get those zoomies out! My 5 year old daughter and 18 month old love dogs too and will always be supervised when around your pup.
“Stella seems happy and no issues with the apartment. Jonathon saved me after my previous sitter ended up having to cancel, so thanks for the quick responses and taking good care of Stella”
“Kacie was awesome! We reach out to Kacie on short notice to take care of our cat who needed antibiotics and other medical attention twice daily and she was very accommodating. She did a great job with our cat who I’m sure will miss her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Highlands Ranch
This is our second visit with Melody! Melody welcomed our cat into her home during a house renovation. When our family had a convergence of busy schedules that would have left our 15 year old dog home alone, we contacted Melody last minute and she took great care of our fur family on a drop in basis. We really appreciated the daily pictures of our babies and highly recommend Melody for drop in and house sitting!
Lindsay has been absolutely amazing. She is very timely and my dogs love her. My Cane Corso can be very intimidating and he’s just a puppy but she’s unfazed by him. He had a diarrhea accident in his cage and she took the time to help clean up a bit and take the dirty stuff outside. It was so helpful! 10/10 recommend Lindsay!
Danielle and Jackson are amazing! They have a really calm energy which works well with our energetic pups and I have full confidence that they could handle anything our animals throw their way. There is an undeniable love of furry friends that underlines all that they do. Highly recommend! 💕✨
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!

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
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. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
