About: Since a young age I've loved and cared for animals big and small. I grew up on a hobby farm with animals ranging from horses and chickens to dogs and cats. As an adult, I have had three dogs of my own (Rescued Aussie's & a Pommie) and a special needs cat who I had to administer sub-cutaneous fluids to on a weekly basis. My dogs have also needed medications administered and consider myself a geriatric pet specialist. I currently have a potty trained indoor rabbit who I absolutely adore. Between having pets of my own, I have taken the opportunity to care for other peoples animals through Trusted House Sitters where I have cared for up to 7 animals at a time (3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 rabbits). I love getting out for long walks, hikes and adventures with dogs as well as just snuggling up and giving fur babies lots of love and pets. I'm a huge animal lover of all sorts and would be honored to care for your pets! A little about me. I'm a mother of two school aged children, I stayed home with them when they were babies and am looking for flexible work while they are still young. I have nannied and cared for other families kids and pets for the last 2 years. I love caring for children both the human and the furry variety. I am looking to make pet care my full time work while my kids are in school. I love caring for animals and can't think of a better way to transition from being a stay at home mom back into working. I love getting to bring joy into your animals life while their favorite person is away as well as the variety of experiences that this job offers. I am very flexible during the weekdays and can occasionally cover nights and weekends-especially if I am hosting. I love dogs, cats, and rabbits. I'm happy to spend extra time getting to know each animal and give them the attention that they need, from medicine administration to extra reassurance and affection. I am also comfortable with horses and farm animals. I can travel to care for most animals or host dogs at my house. I have a fully fenced yard centrally located in Boulder County. We have one super friendly border collie/aussie mix dog who loves everyone she meets.

About: I understand how important our fur babies are to us, I want to welcome yours and put ease on your mind and there’s that they will get the care, and love they need while you can’t be there. I will love them like my own. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to work around your dog’s routine rather than making them fit into mine. I’m home throughout the day and interact with the dogs frequently for potty breaks, walks, playtime, attention, and naps. Someone is home the majority of the time. If gone less than an hour! I live in a townhouse with plenty of open grassy areas and a dog park nearby. We’re also right next to Kensington Park, which we frequent for walks and outdoor time. I have one Schnoodle named Boo who is very sweet, calm, and great company for other dogs. I work from home, so I’m almost always around to give your pet plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while they’re with me. 🐾❤️

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a teenager. I’ve always had a love for dogs. I’ve cared for my own dogs and others. In my 20s, when I was still working part-time, I housesat and pet sat frequently. I work from home full-time. When I leave the house to run errands I am not typically gone more than a couple of hours at a time. I live in an apartment but go on walks in the evenings with my kids. My kids and I love dogs but don’t own one at the moment. We don’t own any pets at the moment. We would love to help care for someone else’s pup until we get our own!

About: (He/Him) I’m a certified veterinary assistant with ~4 years of experience, and I renew my certification yearly! I’ve loved animals my whole life, and have had pets my whole life as well! I’ve been entrusted with pet sitting for dogs, cats, and even horses for family & friends as the go-to pet sitter! I have just graduated college, so I have (relatively) open availability! I’m brand new to Colorado, and still searching for a job so my days are open! I can administer any medications if needed and crate if needed or wanted when I am not there. I can monitor your pets for any changes or needs, and let you know ASAP. For the comfort and safety of your pet please let me know beforehand if your fur baby is sensitive to anything, has any reactivities or animal aggression, or dislikes certain parts of them being pet. If needed/wanted during pet sitting, I can administer flea and tick and Heartworm prevention to your cat or dog, all I need is the date. For any medications, let me know the times and how often, and I will administer and keep record for you that will be available when you come home

About: I grew up in a household with both large and small dogs, from 10-pound terrier mutts to Saint Bernards. My parents taught me the responsibility and compassion required to care for pets. Over the past two years, I’ve worked at dog kennels, gaining confidence in handling aggressive, fearful, and anxious dogs. I also have a shepherd mix named Belle Beretta, who is almost three years old and has had her own struggles with anxiety, which have been a process to overcome. Outside of work, you’ll find me in the mountains with Belle and my boyfriend. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday & Saturday: - During my lunch break at my current kennel, I have time for puppy cuddles and up to an hour-long walk, location permitting. For the rest of the week: - I'm available with flexibility, as long as there's clear communication. I'm all about sticking to a routine! I'll make sure your pets feel cozy and cared for, and I'll keep you updated with plenty of pics, vids, and texts! ❤️

“Tonali was a pleasure to work with! We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our two cats were being well taken care of. It was always nice when we would receive pictures of pets to let us know how they were doing. Tonali also watered our plants and brought in packages left at the door. We will definitely be using her again in the future!!”

About: I was Humane Society volunteer, even if briefly. I've also been a pet owner for 15 years, with one dog named DuDu, who was a Black Labrador I am available practically always, with the primary exception being Wednesday nights, since I have guitar lessons that day. But other than that, I am indeed available, since even my volunteering work is irregular and voluntary I have a fenced yard or have the dog kept on a leash. I make sure the environment is hazard free, and keep the dog away from other animals.

About: Hi there! All my life I have been an animal lover and for the last 8 years I have raised my own dog, and taken care of other dogs for families I used to babysit for. I can fit in any lifestyle your pet has, whether they are active or a stay-at-home. I can fit any accommodation as I work from home, love to exercise (so your dog would get plenty of it, if need be), and I'm incredibly flexible and will be normally free to help you more than not. At the same time, I raised my dog since she was a puppy so I do have experience with younger, more energetic dogs and overall I would simply love to help and treat your dogs like family. I hope we can talk soon! I'm super flexible and work from home at the moment so I basically can take care of your dogs whenever you may need it. I will certainly be more free for your dog rather than not! I will care for your pet in your home however you see fit. I do what is asked and can fit any accommodation whether your dog has a lot of needs, or simply needs a walk and some playtime. I'm happy to help however it may be!

About: Welcome to our chaotic but always exciting zoo! My husband Jeremy and I love animals, and always had them growing up. We have had dogs, cats, ferrets, hamsters, fish and taken care of many others. Currently we have two dogs: Booker and Ahri, two cats: Tinkerbell, and Toulouse, and a ferret Luna. I have experience fostering young kittens for the ASPCA, and we both have experience administering oral and injectable medications. Two of our pets are special needs, so we understand the importance of timely administering meds! We would love to care for your pets while you're away ✨🖤 Jeremy works remotely, and is available on weekday afternoons/evenings and weekends. Sierra works partially remote, and is available weekday mornings/early afternoons and weekends. We spend our evenings unwinding with our furry friends: playing, walking, going to the dog park. We would love to add your friend into our rotation and help them relax while you're away! We currently live in a two story house with a private fenced yard. We are open to do doggy day care/boarding, but we would need to discuss how well your pups do around cats and other dogs! We can easily crate your pup, or keep them separated if requested. We are both tidy and considerate people who will respect your living space and your animal companions. We know the importance of quality pet care, and would love to help provide that service to others!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Lyons

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Lyons on Rover is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $30 per visit. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 5,852 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Lyons. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Lyons 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.

To find sitters in Lyons with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.

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. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
