“Mario is great! Our dogs are pretty aloof and one stuck by his side during his lunch time drop in. He communicated well, and we would use him again!”

“Talon was amazing. We had another pup sitter schedule but they backed out a week before our vacation. Talon stepped in and was perfect, sent us photos and updates daily, and kept our house safe and locked up just like we asked. Definitely going to reach out again the next time we need. Thank you Talon!”


“Rachel is so sweet! She did a great job taking care of Alister for a drop on visit and sent photos 😊 she will be taking care of him over a long weekend and it feels good to know he will have care from someone warm and trustworthy. Totally recommend Rachel!”

“Brianne went way above and beyond with our kitties while we were away for the first overnight trip since we had gotten the kittens. She played, fed, cleaned up after them, and was always interacting with the kitties and sending pictures and video! I appreciated the continual contact, and knowing that our cats were being spoiled and well taken care of! We returned, and they were not frantically seeking attention, or worried or anxious. She took great care of them and helped keep them (and me!) at ease!”

“Very happy with choosing Lori to come over daily and let our dog out. She has been extremely reliable and communicative. For example, she noticed our dog’s water bowl was low and offered to fill it up, even asking if we use filtered water or from the tap. She has also let us know that our dog seemed to be extra itchy, which we already knew, but appreciated that she noticed as well. You can tell Lori really cares about pets and I would recommend her to others.”

“Our cat adored chris! Followed instructions and kept our cat company while we were away for the week. Will be requesting again in the future!”

“Dylan is amazing. I used him for months for drop ins while my puppy was growing up. He was an excellent communicator and is extremely professional. I will be using Dylan’s services again in the future.”

“Sydney is amazing with our pups! Makes sure that both of their needs are met and gives them lots of love. They pics she sends are great, both dogs look super happy that she’s there!”

About: I have a genuine love for animals. I have taken care of animals my entire life. For family and friends around the neighborhood! I always treat animals like they are my own. As of right now I am pretty much open availability! Whenever you need me I'll be there to give your animals the best experience they could ever get! I always make sure the pets are happy and getting the love they need. I always take my dog on long walks or to the dog park. Same with neighborhood dogs. I have two cats as well and trust me!

About: With 20 years of experience caring for my own dogs and cats, I know how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your pets. I’ve cared for pets during stays lasting multiple weeks and have built a reputation for providing loving, reliable care. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. My goal is simple: treat every pet like my own and give you peace of mind while you’re away. 🐶🐱💕 I recently moved to Colorado and currently have a very flexible schedule while I’m exploring my next full-time opportunity. This gives me plenty of availability to give your pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. I have reliable transportation and can be very flexible with scheduling, including longer stays and last-minute needs when possible. 🐾❤️ I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow their usual feeding, walking, playtime, and bedtime schedules and give them plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I also take the time to learn their individual personalities and what makes them feel safe—whether they love cuddles, need a little space, enjoy extra playtime, or simply want someone nearby. I want them to feel like their person is away, but their routine and sense of security haven’t changed.
“Arianna sent photos daily, but ended up being unavailable one of the days I had her booked for and I was informed 45 minutes after the drop-in time, day of. Luckily, my partner was in town and able to stop by to care for my cats, albeit later than they are normally fed.”


About: Hi! My name is Nicole! I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I will make sure your pets are provided with the individualized care that they need and deserve. I’m comfortable administering medications when needed, reinforcing basic commands and routines, helping maintain the structure pets are used to while you're away. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own. In addition to dogs and cats, I also have six years of experience caring for snakes, so I’m comfortable providing care for reptiles as well. I understand the importance of proper feeding schedules, habitat conditions, and gentle handling. Whether your companion needs a good walk, a daytime check-in, company while you’re traveling, or care for a reptile friend, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I am a licensed massage therapist that has a private practice out of Old Colorado City. I work about 3-4 days a week and have a fair amount of flexibility the rest of the time. And with some notice, I can block out my work schedule for Rover clients. I have a 14 y/o Chihuahua mix that I walk, cuddle and play with daily. We are close to my office, so we either drive or walk to work where she greets my massage clients and naps during sessions. As for home sitting clients, I abide by their care guidelines to make sure their home and pets are treated with care and respect. I keep a clean home and will leave your home in good standing.

About: Thank you for taking the time to read through my profile. I’ve been a CNA for three years, with experience taking care of geriatric and post-op patients. My family has been breeding dogs since I was young. I’m very familiar with pet care, whether it be cats, dogs, pigs, horses, or birds lol! I’m currently working from home, so I have more free time now more than ever to spend time and care for your pups or kitties! I have no disruptions in my schedule. I have no pets (besides two fish lol,) and currently live in a decently large apartment with a huge unfenced yard behind my complex, and a dog park within walking distance.

“Jessi was wonderful. She took wonderful care of our dog, Dash, She was detailed and organized about meeting and ensuring she understood all the was required for DASH (walks, food, etc). She reached out immediately after we booked to schedule a preliminary visit so both Dash and I had an opportunity to visit with her. We look forward to working with Jessi again.”

About: Hey, my name is Stephanie and I’m here to make your pup feel like they’re part of my family! I have been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with labs so caring for and being with dogs comes as a second nature to me. I currently have a one year old energetic and fun loving husky. And if your dog allows it would love to have them get together and interact while I’m walking or dog sitting your sweet pup. Aside from caring for my own dogs I have volunteered at Charleston Animal Society and take the pups for walks or play with them outside in the fenced in yards. Dogs are truly a man's best friend and I've never met a dog I didn't like!

“I used Ricardo's services for my dog, Snow. I cannot say enough good things about him during his visits. Ricardo always gave me an incredibly detailed account of the visit and went above and beyond in every way. My dog suffers from separation anxiety and he noticed she wasn't eating very much. He mixed pumpkin into her food to help her appetite and it worked! He took Snow on a walk each day and made sure to stay with her until she was calm. I enjoyed all the pictures, small details and care he showed her and I will recommend him to anyone. I will be happy to use him the next time I go out of town. Pick Ricardo- you will not be disappointed.”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Manitou Springs 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 Manitou Springs 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 .

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 Manitou Springs with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
