About: Hello! I’ve been caring for my own and other people’s dogs for 25 years...a wide range of sizes and personalities. I’ve particularly been around Rottweilers, German Shepherds, Labs, Great Danes, Goldens, Aussie Shepherds, Havanese, Dachshunds, Huskies, Chihuahuas, Doodles of all kinds, and of course many wonderful mixes. I have had dog parties/sleepovers/boarded at my home and for others in their homes. I’m super happy to cater to your pup’s unique preferences...I can make special foods, pop pills down expertly, change diapers, hang out at the dog park, play fetch, hit the trails, whatever your best friend likes best. Making their day makes my day too! I’m currently working seasonally doing gardening, and am very flexible with my routine. Being around dogs and making them happy is something that brings me me a lot of joy! I will follow whatever normal rules established in your home, or bring them home with me to share space with my two small and friendly dogs.

About: I've had dogs and cats for as long as I can remember and have cared for pets through every stage of life, including senior animals. As a volunteer with the Animal Welfare League of Arlington in Virginia, I worked directly with shelter cats by cleaning kennels, providing food and fresh water, and monitoring their living spaces while being careful not to cause unnecessary stress. This experience taught me how to respect each animal's comfort level, recognize different personalities, and provide calm, attentive care. I also volunteered with Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation in Virginia, where I helped socialize animals and connect potential adopters with dogs that matched their lifestyle. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, independent, or needs extra patience, I will provide reliable care and follow their routine closely so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. This summer, I am completing an internship with Walking Mountains in Avon with varying hours throughout the week, but I am fully available on Mondays and Tuesdays, which are my weekends. On most other days, I am available before work and in the evenings for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care. Your pet's safety and comfort are the most important thing to me. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special care instructions before providing care. Whether I'm visiting your home, taking your dog for a walk, or staying overnight, I'll ensure your pet receives attentive, reliable care. Through my volunteer experience caring for shelter cats, I've learned the importance of being patient, observant, and respectful of each animal's comfort level. I'll follow your instructions closely, provide regular updates and photos, and treat both your pet and your home with the same respect and care that I would my own.

Mackenzie and our cat got a long so well. She sent video updates and was prompt, organized and mature. She stayed with our 16 y.o cat while we were out of town for most of a week. Upon our return, our boy was happy and relaxed. We will definitely use Mackenzie again!

Ellie was phenomenal!! She said multiple nights at our house with our dog. We got so many fun and active photos of him, looking so happy 😊 we could not have asked for it to go better. We even had some electrical problems happen at the house when we were away and she went out of her way to help mitigate them! 10/10!

Michael was super flexible when my timing wasn’t what was expected. I really appreciate him being able to stay with my dog an extra hour. He walked her all around Vail, let her play with his stuffed animals, and gave her a massage with his massage gun. We got picture updates throughout the day, and he was super responsive to all messages. Will definitely use him again in the future

About: I grew up in a family that raised seeing eye dogs, so caring for dogs has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I love animals and I’m comfortable with dogs of different ages, sizes, energy levels, and routines. New to Rover but excited to meet new local fur friends! I am also a photographer & can send you adorable pics of your cute pup(s) if you’d like. I have a very flexible schedule and lots of availability. Happy to walk or hang with your fur baby while you're away. Often available for last minute emergencies! I work as a freelance photographer, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available most days. I’m happy to help with regular walks, drop ins, house sitting, and last minute needs when they come up. If you have an emergency or unexpected change in plans, please feel free to reach out! I’m not currently able to host pets in my own home, but I’m happy to care for them in their home where they feel most comfortable. I’m respectful, professional, and very mindful of keeping your space clean, secure, and even better than you left it.

About: Kaylie grew up in a busy, animal-filled home—surrounded by everything from dogs and cats to bunnies and guinea pigs. Axel grew up with dogs and cats of his own. While we don't have any fur babies of our own currently, we loveee animals! We've spent the last few years pet-sitting in people's homes through other platforms to get our "furry fix." We currently maintain a 5-star rating with glowing reviews from our previous house and pet sits, and we'd be more than happy to share those details with you! Your pet will have plenty of company here! Axel and I both work remotely, so someone is always home to provide attention and companionship throughout the work day. We love to stay active and naturally break up our tasks with frequent walks. Whether your dog prefers a gentle stroll or a more rigorous hike, we’re happy to tailor our activity level to their needs—including longer adventures after the work day is done. We are located right on the Eagle Valley bike path, which serves as our massive "extended backyard!" While we don't have a fenced yard, our active lifestyle means your dog will never be bored with multiple dedicated outings throughout the day tailored to their energy level.. We specialize in "on-the-go" care, taking full advantage of the nearby paths, hiking trails, and park for long walks, fetch sessions, and fresh air. Your pet will enjoy a fun stay with constant companionship and plenty of variety.

About: Join Piper and I for a day of fun! Piper is a very easy going mixed breed pup. She is friendly with all pets, even cats. We love to adventure but we can be homebodies as well from time to time. So whether you want to swim and adventure the outdoors or hide from the heat and take a nap...we are here for you! I can no longer host at my apartment due to lease restrictions, but I am able to house sit and perform drop ins. I work full time at Colorado Mountain Medical. This has always been an enjoyable side gig for me ☺️ I live in Avon and will serve all of Eagle County. I am no longer available for hosting your pets per my lease agreement but I am available to house sit and walk your pets while you are away. I currently sit for a client in Eagle who has 2 cats. Frequent walks and lots of love are a guarantee. Responsible pet owner. I will stay in contact with you as little or as much as you desire while you are away. Pics included!

Melissa was great! She took great care of the dogs and our house, and sent lots of cute updates. The highlight was when she took them on a Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving Day and dressed them up in tutus. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. It really made our trip easier knowing the dogs were in good hands. I would highly recommend Melissa.

About: I grew up around many dogs, big (my own dog Woody is a 12 year old fox red lab) and small (my other dog Juniper is a 2 year old dachshund), and I’m super comfortable around them. I’ve also dog and cat sat for neighbors and family since I could drive! Having just moved out here, I miss spending time with dogs and would love to meet some new ones :) I am currently working full time as a naturalist at Walking Mountains, but my schedule varies and allows for more flexibility week to week. I am mostly available first thing in the morning, late afternoon into the evening, and for overnights because I have a car! Dogs need lots of love and attention, and I always make sure to give it! Back at home, my dachshund Juniper requires going out regularly and lots of affection, and my lab Woody requires lots of exercise and play, so I am used to caring for dogs with different needs.

Clare is awesome! We needed someone at the last minute to take care of Moby while passing through Vail briefly for an appointment. She met us where we parked and walked him 3+ miles to her home for a playdate with her pup. Super nice, on time, and great with Moby. Highly recommend!!

FAQs for House Sitting - Minturn

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Minturn on Rover is $79.92 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 315 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Minturn. 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 Minturn 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 Minturn 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 Minturn 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Minturn. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
