For Monday, Wednesday and Friday I am available 6 am or after 5 for walks or drop ins.
“We love Lindsay and couldn’t recommend her enough. My cat got sick including throwing up multiple times. She would send pictures and helped make me feel comfortable that she would be okay till I got back.”
About: I've had pets of all kinds growing up and I understand the value of companionship. I provide unconditional love to all the pets who do the same. I currently have plenty of free time during the week to provide and care for pets and their many needs. I communicate effectively when I have other obligations and make sure pets are safe and secure no matter the time of day. I live in a safe a comfortable apartment complex that has plenty of grass and walking routes for pets of all shapes and sizes. The apartment is clean with minimal obstructions so pet's feel free to explore and find a cozy spot. I have no pets of my own, but enjoy the companionship of any fuzzy friend.

Colleen and Brian are great about catering to our special needs pup to get him to eat, even when we are out of town and he is in their care. Highly recommend and will use again many times in the future!!”
“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!”
“Kaitlyn was very communicative and went the extra mile while taking care of my cat. She was caring, attentive and treated my fur baby like one of her own while I was away”
“Michal is our go to guy! He was prompt when we needed a trustworthy pet sitter last minute. Michal was attentive to Benny and kept me in the loop about anything going on! Michal is both a caring and knowledgeable pet sitter!”
“Morgan is everything you want in anyone who looks after your pet- dependable, observant, communicative. She lets you know what pet owners want to know about the visit. I have a young puppy with many needs, but Morgan gives me great peace with her drop in visits.”
“Above and beyond. Super understanding of a last minute schedule change I had, was extremely kind through all communication. My cats were really happy when I got home and everything was tidy. They also got super excited about the extra gift left for them. Made this part of my travel plans this holiday much much easier. Thank you very much.”
“I think we were all very pleased with how the 2nd meeting went. At the first meeting Loki was interested and curious but slow in assessing Pam. At our second meeting, Pam and Loki played with one of Loki's favorite toys in the backyard while my husband and I stayed out of the way on the patio. It helped break the ice between them and then when we visited on the patio afterward Loki gravitated more to Pam and even let her pet him and he gave her some love. All very encouraging. We all agreed it would be helpful to schedule a few more similar sessions. It's a slow process but, this time was very encouraging. We really appreciate Pam's patience and gentleness with Loki.”
“Our family was getting together down in the Springs yesterday and we didn’t want to leave our sick cat alone for that many hours so we contacted Lucia to have her come a couple times. She’s so loving and took such good care of Kitty. I can’t thank her enough for her love and care.”
“Shari took care of our cat while we were out of town for a few days. We spoke to her before we decided, and we were impressed with her attention to our requests. While she was watching our cat, she sent pics and an update after each visit. We feel that our cat was well-cared-for. We will certainly try to have her watch our cat the next time we are heading out of town.”

Danielle and Jackson are the best! They took such good care of Zeus while we were away for the weekend. It was a short trip so we just had drop-ins, but Zeus still got plenty of walks, flippy time, hugs, and attention. The updates with pictures were fun to receive too! Zeus and his family highly recommend this sweet couple. 😊
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!
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!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Highlands Ranch stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 .
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 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.
To find sitters in Highlands Ranch with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
