“So grateful for Mary's support with my cat friend ~ She was communicative, kind, very friendly & gave Rosie the space she needed to ~eventually feel comfortable with interacting with someone aside from her human ~ thank you!”
“Undoubtedly we will be rebooking with Shelby on our next trips! Shelby is responsible, attentive, and caring. Shelby made our experience away from home worry free knowing my pets were being taken care of really well! My dog and cat loved Shelby and would always run to the door excitedly when they would hear the car drive up. My pets have a very specific feeding routine and Shelby followed instructions perfectly, and sent us updates and pictures after every check in. Shelby, we really appreciate having you be there while we were away. Thanks so much!”
“Joanie was just wonderful with our dog, Arlow. She was attentive and responsible and really earned both Arlows and our trust. She is so sweet and reliable and we can’t wait to have her back as our sitter! I really felt like i could sit back and enjoy our vacation knowing Joanie was taking care of our puppers. 🖤 10/10”
“Christopher was such a great sitter for my cat! He was thoughtful, prompt, and caring. Christopher was super flexible with our needs as well. I will be booking Christopher again in the future.”
About: I have had pets since I was born. I love pet sitting and look forward to spending time with yours! I typically dog sit for my friends, bosses and family. I work full-time but am available to pet sit on the weekends, weeknights after 5 and on most holidays. I can make most schedules work. I only watch your pets in your home. I have 2 kitties and I don’t want to disturb their environment. I’m considerate and trust worthy in your home.
About: I’ve been taking care of other people’s pets since I was 15, and working on Rover for about a year and a half. I know how important our fur families are and would love to be there to support your dog(s) and/or cat(s) while you are away. I have experience with multiple breeds of dogs, such as Pit Bulls, Greyhounds, German Shepherds, Shih Tzus, Beagles, Golden-Doodles, Schnauzers, Chihuahuas and all sorts of mixed-breeds. All ages welcome, as I have experience working with dogs from ~3 months to 16 years old. Additionally, I have experience working with dogs and cats with disabilities and special needs, such as blindness, deafness, heart murmurs, joint issues, hip dysplasia, and thyroid conditions. I’m experienced in providing oral medication, eye drops, and vitamins/supplements. I am highly attuned to the ways pets express their feelings of joy, love, and fear. I use this knowledge to support my care for them and am responsive to the ways they communicate their comfort levels. My main goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for your pets to thrive while you are away. I care for the animals I sit for as if they were mine! I know the pet parent’s experience is just as important and send pictures, videos, and detailed updates daily to ensure they know their families are getting amazing care while they’re away. I work from home and can easily transition my workstation to any place necessary. Most of my plans I have are flexible and local. I love going on walks and spending time at home reading/crafting. I update my calendar regularly on Rover to ensure it’s correct for ease of use. I am happy to provide care in client’s homes and keep it clean as if it were my own place. The families I work with often comment I left their homes cleaner than when they left. I’m happy to help water plants, grab mail, take out the trash, bring in packages, and anything else that helps take care of your home while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule and can easily keep your fur babies on their feeding, walking, and bathroom schedules.
“Amanda was the best. She was so easy to book with and came perfectly on time. She was so good with my Puppy and they had a blast together. She brought him home so happy and tired and I couldn’t be more grateful. I can’t recommend her enough.”
About: My life is enriched by animals. I love them so much, and I would love to meet yours. I work from home, so I have a lot of time to care for your furry friend while you are away. I am a huge animal lover and was raised to love and care for animals. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, donkeys, chickens, and highland cows. I know that going away when you have pets adds a bit of a challenge to the equation. I am happy to lighten your load. I can provide care and companionship for your beloved pet while you are away so you can have a relaxed, worry-free time. I am trust-worthy and reliable, and I can assure you that your pet(s) will be in good hands. I have a flexible schedule. I can accommodate you and your animals schedule. I can also be available last minute and drop everything in case of emergency. I follow your directions. I will not do anything you are uncomfortable with. I prefer to live on the safe and cautious side of things and not to do anything to put animals or self in harms way. I can provide daily updates, pictures, texts or emails - whatever you want.
“Izzy was great - communicative and reliable, everything went really smoothly! I know our kitties were in great hands. I will 100% rebook with Izzy and would recommend her to anyone!”
About: My senior dog, River, crossed the rainbow bridge in February 2026, just shy of his 15th birthday. He was my soul dog and taught me so much about dogs, companionship, and myself. While I’m not able to have a dog of my own right now, I still have a huge amount of love and compassion for animals, and I get my dog and cat fix through the wonderful pets of friends, family, and neighbors. I believe dogs and cats are part of the family, and I know firsthand how much they mean to us. When your pet is in my care, they’ll be treated with the same patience, attention, and affection I’d want for my own. I occasionally care for neighbors’ dogs and cats, including pets with specific medication routines. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and making sure medications, feeding, exercise, and other routines are followed consistently. I currently work part-time in a remote role, which gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to be available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and plenty of attention and companionship. I’m happy to work around each pet’s normal routine, whether they need regular activity and playtime or simply someone around to keep them company. I have a fully fenced yard with a closable doggie door, giving dogs the option to go outside and come back in as they please. There are no other animals living in my home, and I can keep my yard private if your dog prefers their own space. I do have two friendly neighborhood dogs who occasionally visit, but I’m happy to keep them separate when needed. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routines as closely as possible. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where your pet can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Otelia was such a great Rover! I had such an easy experience. She is very communicative which helped alleviate any anxiety I felt about leaving my kitty. She even left me a handwritten note at the end!”
“Sara is great! She is by far my first choice when I need a dog sitter. I have used her on several occasions and she is always on time, she's very caring and responsible, and most important, our dogs love her. Recently we had an emergency with one of our dogs and she handled the situation with great professionalism and empathy. She kept me informed and up to date with any new developments and even though she was not scheduled to be there, she kept our doggy company to make him feel comfortable. I couldn't be happier with her service. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who really cares about your pet.”
About: Hi! My name is Marion. I have always loved dogs, and have one lovely pup of my own, Summit. She is the tan dog in the photos. She is 7 years old, and very dog friendly. She loves to play, but knows boundaries and is happy to cuddle on the couch as well. I have a very large, high-fenced yard that is great for the dogs, and I also walk my dogs 2x daily and take them to the dog park or open space 1-2x per week. I am a runner, so I could gladly run with your dog if you would like. Dogs of all sizes are welcome in my home! I grew up with Great Danes and am very comfortable around big dogs, and my house is very open so there is a lot of room. I look forward to meeting you and your doggos! I am experience with senior and medical pets as well and am comfortable caring for your medically needing fur babies. Behavioral issues or nervous dogs don’t scare me, I have fostered 50+ dogs over the years and am happy to be accommodating. I work from home 90% of the time and am only gone from the home for 2-4 hours at a time to visit my clients. I have a furbo in my home to check in on dogs when I am not at home, and can make my schedule work for someone needing 24/7 observation as long as I have notice. I have multiple spaces in my home if our dogs need to be separated as well.
“Falecia did a great job with my senior cat - giving her medicine, keeping her box clean, and most importantly, giving her some love. She's responsive and easy to work with. I will definitely have Falecia care for Delilah again.”
“Mary was so helpful with dropping in 2x a day to take care of our two cats. It was great to see the check in photos. We appreciated the quick communication when one of our cats potentially had an issue. We would be happy to ask Mary to pet sit again!”
“Our cat Cosmo always seemed happy to see Wenqi and we appreciated the pictures she sent. She also kept our outdoor potted plants watered and alive during a July heatwave!”

Sing-Chun is the best! She is good with all ages of dogs and personalities. She has won over our older, nervous dog who doesn’t often like new people. She has also done an amazing job tiring out our new puppy. She is professional and reliable and I couldn’t recommend her enough!
Joanie was just wonderful with our dog, Arlow. She was attentive and responsible and really earned both Arlows and our trust. She is so sweet and reliable and we can’t wait to have her back as our sitter! I really felt like i could sit back and enjoy our vacation knowing Joanie was taking care of our puppers. 🖤 10/10
Samantha did an excellent job with my two cats while I was away. She spent a good amount of time playing with them, promptly updated me on any kitty problems that arose, and sent plenty of well taken photos to keep me in the loop. It was very reassuring knowing that my cats were being well taken care of, and the notes left were very insightful. I would most definitely book again! Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Niwot is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $36 per visit. On Rover, 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 November 2026, there are 12,371 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Niwot. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Niwot. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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.
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.
