About: Hello🐾 I’m Karys. I’m a full time college student with hands on experience in veterinary medicine and animal shelters. I am passionate for animal care and love giving pets personalized attention so they feel comfortable and happy in their own routine. I harness trained my cat for outdoor walks and car rides, which is something we both enjoy and makes spending time together fun and engaging. I like taking pets out on little adventures, like an afternoon hike/ trip to the park, or a quiet afternoon on the couch together watching a show. I have open availability! I’m a full-time online student with a self-paced schedule, so we can coordinate days and times that work best for both of us. I have open availability! As a full-time online student with a self paced schedule, I’m happy to coordinate days and times that work best for you and your pet.
“Kristy was fantastic with our kitties! She helped us out last minute when my husband had emergency eye surgery & it was great peace of mind knowing they were well cared for & in good hands. Excellent communication & fun pics, as well as feeding them their wet food & fresh water. Would have her back in a heartbeat! Til next time, take care & be well Kristy!”
“Yasmine was absolutely amazing! I had so much peace of mind knowing my kitty was in great hands with her. She sent us lots of pictures/videos, and gave us great updates about our kitty while we were gone. I would recommend Yasmine to anyone needing a pet sitter :)”
About: I have years of experience with “bully” breeds, and elderly dog care. I am good with walking dogs of all sizes and training levels. I have walked multiple dogs at a time, and love being outdoors so if your dog wants a long walk, they’ll get a long walk with me! I am able to set my own schedule in advance at my job to ensure I have the proper time to care for your loved ones. Animals aren’t just pets, they’re apart of your family and should be treated as such. When I am taking care of your fur-babies, they will receive ny full attention and support!
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
“Alyssa is great with our pets. She kept in touch and kept our 2 cats happy while we were out of town. She provided updates and made sure everything was under control at home so we could enjoy Chrsitmas with our family out of state! She is friendly and professional!”
About: Hi, I am Tigran. I started and run a dog rescue in Colorado called Havok's Wolfpack. I help dogs in high kill shelters of neighboring states find great new homes in Colorado. I am currently living in the South East park Boulder. I regularly host foster dogs so my home isn't a dog-free environment when I'm not sitting through Rover. All of my foster dogs are friendly. I run my organisation remotely, so I have ultimate flexibility for dog care, walks and attention. Currently fully available. Will be able to respond within an hour. I explore new hikes and dog walks multiple times a day. Your pup will be extremely happy every time I show up. I travel to clients homes and have no issues handling the biggest and most energetic dogs. Happy to accommodate owners requests when it comes to handling dogs.
“Jinia saved us by being available for Oreo last minute and she is awesome! On time. Reliable and took care of our boy. Thank you so much and excited to be able to have you over again. 😻”
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13, primarily caring for cats and dogs. My experience includes dog walking, feeding, playtime, administering basic routines, and cleaning litter boxes. I’ve especially worked with older cats and dogs, so I understand the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentle care they often need. I also have two cats of my own back home, giving me firsthand experience in daily responsibilities and expectations of being a pet owner. Because of this, I’m very mindful about my care towards your pet! I’m currently a second-year, first-generation student at CU Boulder, balancing school and a Work-Study position. I’m generally available Thursday through Monday after 1 PM and can be flexible with advance notice. When I house sit I treat every home with respect, focusing on your pet while you’re away. I understand leaving your home and furry friend to a stranger can be worrisome so I do my best to comfort your pet and keep your space the way you like it.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for over thirteen years. Experienced in giving medication, in training, going on walks, giving baths, playing, and cuddles. I have availability for any pet care needs Sunday- Saturday. I am willing to stay overnights for a safer more relaxed boarding experience for pets. I currently work 6 hours Monday-Friday, at Pups on the Poudre Grooming. I am able to take off any time with enough notice I have pet watched for family, friends, and clients for thirteen years. Each stay is different depending on the pets needs and energy. However, for all visits we do go on one on one walks for quality outside time, and an hour outside play time. Plenty of treats for good behavior and training purposes. As well as watching my friends dogs, I also take care of my roommates two cats and one dog at home that love to cuddle, play, and explore the fenced in back yard.
“Rachael was amazing with our Leo and he was extremely happy when we returned. She was very responsive and sent us the cutest photos. We would absolutely love to book with her again!”
“Tara was wonderful with our 11 week old puppy during daytime drop in visits. She’s a great communicator and sent very detailed updates/pictures. We could tell our puppy was well taken care of when we got home. We look forward to having her sit for us again!”

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 Lyons 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 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 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.

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.
