“Madison, Thank you for taking care of my baby girl Aspen! The time, along with her meds and the loving you showed her, even taking the time for a meet and great! I know she’s looking forward to seeing you again!”


“We love Robyn! She takes wonderful care of our babies, and we will be hiring her more often, now that we have a trusted sitter in the area. She’s communicative, thorough, loves all animals and puts in the extra effort. Traveling is so much easier when you have someone you can rely on. Thank you Robyn!”

About: Hi there! I'm Kat and I am looking to do some pet care! I am an animal lover at heart, and I know how hard it can be to find care for fur babies. I can do dog sitting for dogs of all ages and needs. For boarding, all I ask is that your dog is friendly so that they get along with mine. I have a 5 year old lab-great dane mix, and he is such a gentle giant. For sitting, I am happy to come to you! For walking, I can walk dogs of all ages and needs, and am happy to also take your dog for a run! Available any day, any time. I am a teacher and am currently on summer break, so I am free most of the time! Once school starts, my schedule will change a bit. For boarding in my home, I have a fenced in yard for potty breaks. I also make sure to walk my dog everyday at least once a day, and would do the same for you!
“Abigail was so wonderful to have come do drop in visits for our cat! Our cat loved her and she was great to work with. We'll definitely be using Abigail again for future cat sits.”

About: I have 2 dogs and 4 cats. I only book 1 household at a time so your pet/s will only be with mine during their stay. If there is any overlap between bookings, I will communicate it to you so you can make the beat decision for your pet's care. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. I can administer medication and care for injuries. My dogs are husky mixes that are full of energy and very friendly and playful. They frequent local dog parks, daycares and Rover sitters and are very well socialized - they do well with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. My cats are 2 seniors and 2 youngsters. The seniors keep to themselves, the youngsters may be curious. If for any reason your dog or cat requires a quiet or private space, I can offer that too without any issue. I work from home so your pet will have very frequent attention and play time. They will also have lots of space to run and explore. If okay with you, they are also welcome to join us on car rides to parks and walks. I have a fenced yard and a very pet friendly home. Pets are allowed on couches, beds, and I have both private and social spaces for any less social or pets with special needs. I have a large crate that can be used if needed/desired.
About: I love animals more than life!! Ive been so lucky to have had such a wide variety of pets of my own and to have met and cared for so many of my friends and families pets as if they are my own. I worked at a doggy daycare facility for a year, which gave me extensive knowledge on caring for dogs and reading body language. I am well equipped to care for animals of all sizes!! I currently do not have other pets or children, making me flexible with my availability on both weekends and weekdays for any services your pet may need! Caring for animals will make my days a million times better!! I am keen on treating your pets as if they are my own. I have so much love in my heart for all animals and you can always trust that they are in the best hands.
“Stephanie came out to let my dogs out & then on a 2nd visit the same day took them for a walk and gave them dinner. She was fantastic with the dogs, and followed all instructions perfectly! 1 of my dogs is deaf and the other is reactive with other dogs and she did great with them.”
“Sandy & Chase are great! Super quick to respond and are great communicators. They sent nice pics and updates of our dog during the visit and we really appreciated their care.”

“Jackie is great! She takes excellent care of our two puppies several times a week. She drops by and let's them out to go potty mid-day, pays them a little attention, and our dogs love her.”


About: Hi! I’m Laura, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up on a small farm where I helped care for horses, sheep, goats, dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, and just about every furry friend you can imagine. That experience taught me how to be patient, attentive, and comfortable with animals of all personalities and energy levels. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and am now a proud pet mom to my two cats, Lulu and Loki, and my dog, Odella. I understand how much our pets mean to us because mine are truly part of my family, and I’ll treat yours with the same love and care. I work remotely from my home in Golden, which gives me a flexible schedule for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, medications (if needed), and plenty of companionship. I love spending time outdoors and am always happy to take active dogs on long walks or adventures that match their comfort and energy level. For pets who prefer a slower pace, I’m just as happy to provide cuddles, enrichment, and a calm, reassuring presence at home. I know trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. My goal is for you to feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! I work remotely from home in Golden, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and provide attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, or just some extra companionship, I’m happy to accommodate their routine whenever possible. I strive to be as flexible as I can to meet you and your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications (if requested and I’m comfortable administering them), and any other special care your pet needs. I work remotely from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable visits throughout the day. I’ll always prioritize your pet’s safety by using secure leashes and harnesses on walks, respecting your home, and making sure your pet feels comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also send plenty of photo updates and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving the same love and attention I’d give my own pets.
“Kimberly is very attentive and responsive. She was willing to meet me beforehand on short notice. She is very thorough in her stays and makes sure to keep you up to date even when the app is lagging. She is super friendly and you can tell she really enjoys meeting new pets! I would definitely rebook with Kimberly!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. Specifically with dogs mostly, cats, and some experience with birds and even bearded dragons. Any specialty care requires a solid schedule so as to maintain pets safety and wellness. I currently house and pet sit for multiple people in my life and figured I’d branch out and love some more animals. I haves degree in I.T. But I’ve learned animals are most often better than people. I schedule most days that I’m free around pet sitting. I’ve blessed to be able to love and care for pets to give them back to their owners in their best and happiest states. My home is very structured with only a few floors of mobility, as I block certain parts of my house of for pet safety. If I’m a guest in other peoples homes I learn their routine and limitations and enforce any rules or routines based off the owners schedule.
“Absolutely amazing! I would recommend Becky to anyone looking for a Petsitter. She did a wonderful job watching my cats and reptiles while I was away for the holiday. She was available on short notice, her prices cannot be beat, and most of all she went above and beyond to provide my animals with the highest level of care. I will be rebooking her again!”


About: Five years and running in Summit County. My love of animals is noticeable and after having spent many a day and weekend taking care of my friends and neighbors furbabies (including running with their dogs), I've decided to make dog/cat sitting a more permanent side hobby. As a pet owner myself (both cats and dogs), I understand how important a cat/dog sitter is to the wellbeing of both the owner and their pet(s). Therefore, I'll do all that I can to make sure I provide a fun, safe and positive experience for everyone. I am a consultant so my hours are somewhat flexible during the week and weekends. Let me know how I can help. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I am available for drop in visits, feeding, playtime, companionship, and overnight stays depending on the location. My priority is creating a safe calm and comfortable environment where pets can maintain their routine and feel secure. In a clients home I respect the pets established schedule and the owners preferences, including feeding routines, medications, exercise, playtime and household guidelines. I pay close attention to behavior and well-being and provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and cared for.
About: I have had dogs,cats,bunnies,chickens throughout my life. I know how to care for each one. I am a trusted and reliable handler with any family pet(s). Being a animal person is in my blood and I absolutely love it and enjoy caring for them. Currently I have a part time job. I also ride horses for friends that are away on trips. Together they don't pay my bills. Working with dogs and other animals for clients I have been thinking of doing for awhile now. It would be much appreciated to have you as my client and make this a career. I already have three dogs with me. Having any animals stay over at my house will not be an option at all. My dogs can be very wild and not the best behaved around new furry friends. For the safety of your pet and mine it would be best to dog sit over night at the clients home if preferred. Everything else is open.
About: I’ve taken care of kids and animals my whole life because I love providing love and care to all living things! I enjoy taking pets on walks, engaging them with their toys, and of course giving them some good pats and scratches :) I work remotely and have the flexibility in my schedule to match the routines you keep with your fur babies. Taking a break from work to go on a walk, play fetch, or give some pats & scratches is my favorite! Any pet in my care will be getting the VIP treatment where attention, playtime, and affection are concerned. I used to be a teacher, and from my time managing classes of over 35 middle schoolers and their art supplies, I am a very flexible, detail oriented person, who follows instructions closely which would translate well into specific care needs for any pet. You tell me what your pet needs and I will make it happen at a high quality!

As of August 2026, there are 5,641 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Idaho Springs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 cat, 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.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
