“If I could give 10 stars I would ! Jacob was absolutely wonderful. I couldn't have asked for anything more. He had a tough job and we almost cancelled a family reunion we had been planning for months. Our Bernese Mountain dog tore her ACL 2 weeks before we were set to go. She had surgery one week before we left. She had to have a lot of attention. And she got the best care from Jacob. Our Bernese had to have medication 3x a day, PT exercises 2x a day and had to wear the Cone of Shame :-( .. And she had to have her surgical sight cleaned, check and medicated everyday. She had to wear a sleeve on her leg and have it adjusted just right so it wasn't too tight or too loose. Jacob also had to take care of our old finicky cat and water indoor and outdoor plants. Like I said , we couldn't have had a better person to handle all of this than Jacob. He would lay on the floor with her and give her belly rubs several times a day and hold and carry around our cat, who is very particular of who can even touch him. We highly recommend Jacob to house sit, walk your dogs, take care of your pets etc. He was GREAT !”
“Stacy is amazing - she kept our pups happy and in their routine while we were away & continually provided us with regular picture and text updates! Her dog is a sweetheart and she did a wonderful job of caring for our home. We are so glad to have found Stacy for this trip and for future travels!”
“Eleshia was absolutely wonderful. She did everything we asked her to do and then some. She sent pictures. Her Communication skills were awesome. Would highly recommend her to watch your dog.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10, I have watched all sorts of dogs, from family to friends to coworkers, and neighbors even:) I’m currently working for a second job but I always make sure that my animal care come first, I try to reason with my clients if change happens. I always try to make sure my dogs and cats stay occupied with toys and treats and walks making sure that they are always fed 2 time a day
“It was such a pleasure to work with Karen! She is professional, reliable, kept me updated, and responded quickly to all my texts (I really miss my dog when I’m gone). She left my home in perfect condition. I look forward to having her stay in my home again soon.”
“Trinity is such a joy to work with, and our dogs love her. We received regular updates during her stay, along with photos, which is always nice. We needed someone with short notice and got so lucky to find Trinity! We will use her again in the future.”
“Morgan and Lacey were superb. They managed the house, irrigation and animals as if they were their own. They are most definitely DOG PEOPLE. Our dogs were depressed when they left.”
“Emily was awesome! We could tell that Bella was happy and well taken care of. We appreciated all the pictures and correspondence while Emily was with Bella. We will definitely ask Emily to come back and stay with Bella the next we travel. Thanks Emily!!!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and have taken care of them and other people’s. i will love and take care of your animals like my own :) I currently work a lot but never all day it’s normally a morning or an evening shift. either 10-4 or 2-8:30 sometimes i work 10:45-8:30 but i would be able to let you know! I have a big yard for my dogs and have had smaller yards for them as well. whatever your dogs needs are i can figure it out :)
“Kaya was an amazing dog sitter and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She took such great care of our dog and kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that Kaya genuinely cares about animals and made sure our dog felt comfortable, happy, and loved. She was reliable, kind, and easy to communicate with. We would absolutely trust her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful pet sitter!”
About: I have 8 years of pet care experience including volunteering at two animal sanctuaries. I also have my own cat Mugiwara who I love so very much and look after with absolute devotion. During the day, I work as a Registered Behavior Technician with a young client with autism, using ABA therapy to enhance their lifeskills. I am also currently interning at a company that provides counseling services to the Grand Valley area while I study for my Master's of Social Work. I am naturally drawn to caregiving and the advocacy of people and animals of all ages. I work full days doing ABA on Mondays and Fridays with half days in the morning on Wednesdays. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I block out time for internship duties but I always block out more time than I need so I can stop in and care for your pet :) On weekends I study which is also very flexible. My home will not be open to boarding as I live in a small apartment with my own cat. However, I feel I can provide a feeling of safety, trust, and comfort for any animal in need of services through my experience and ability to understand what an animal might/does want/need. I pride myself at being well-versed at reading body language and communication of all kinds.
“Deannica was great. We booked her for a full week for our two dogs. She texted every day with updates and left our house cleaner than it was when we left. We will for sure be using her in the future.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life! I most recently had two dogs, a chihuahua and rotty mix. One big and one small dog! I currently live in a tiny apartment, so I try to find ways to get my dog fix in. I regularly volunteer to walk dogs at local shelters here in Grand Junction. I have experience with small and large dogs of all age ranges. I’m punctual with my schedules and can be relied on to make timely visits or give medications/food. I’m also comfortable house sitting your home and keeping up on all your chores/needs while you are away! I work seasonally for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, so in my off season I have lots of extra time to take care of pups I have a gentle demeanor when meeting/walking new to me dogs. I can adjust my care to suit whatever needs your dog may have
“Johanna took wonderful care of our pup, giving her lots of love and cuddles while we were out of town. She was flexible when we asked to change the booking which we greatly appreciated! We will absolutely ask Johanna to watch Luna again ❤️”
“Lori took care of quite a full house for us — our St. Bernard, our French Bulldog, our barn cat, our chickens, and even our koi and goldfish and the pond — and it was a great first experience. She sent constant updates and photos throughout the stay, so we always knew exactly how everyone and everything was doing, which was especially reassuring given how much she had to juggle. She was easygoing, clearly comfortable with animals of all kinds, and handled the dogs and koi pond maintenance without a hitch. We'd happily recommend her to anyone with a busy household of pets and property, and we'll definitely be booking her again.”
“Aubrey was fantastic while house sitting for us. We have a high-energy mini Aussie, and she handled her with ease and care. She kept us consistently updated, communicated clearly, and sent photos, which we really appreciated. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog and home were in such good hands. We highly recommend her—thanks again, Aubrey!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 187 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Loma. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Loma walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Loma maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Loma 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
