About: I parent two active cattle dog breeds. I have experienced with senior dogs and puppies! I I am comfortable with administering any medication that is needed or any form of extra care. I’m a teacher so during the school year I can help out in the evenings and anytime on the weekends. In the summer I can do anytime! My home has a large yard with a fence. We do also have a dog door. My aim is to follow any procedures/expectations your pets are used to.

I have experience with dogs of all ages—puppy to senior—and all sizes —2lbs to 112lbs. I am retired military and spend my time training for marathons with my dogs as my training partners.

“Stacy always does an excellent job with Lacy. She even got Lacy to wear her backpack vest, which I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to get her to wear for over a year. I'll have to figure out what bribe she uses. Thanks Stacy!”
About: I have help out my friends and family for many years with their pets. I have taken care of many puppies and kittens including my own. I am a college student at Colorado Mesa University. I am free to do drop-ins and walks aro my class schedule. During the summer I am free during the day time. I love playing with animals, my dogs like to play hide and seek so it really makes them work their brain as to where I am. I like to follow the route the owners have with the pet so it doesn't stress the animal out if possible.
About: As a career animal welfare professional, I'm ready to bring my decades of experience in animal care, veterinary care and animal handling to you and your home to ensure you have total peace of mind and your pets are cared for and safe while you're away. My entire professional career has been in the animal welfare field. I've worked as a cruelty investigator in both major metropolitan as well as rural agricultural regions. I've worked on farm animal sanctuaries as well as in city shelters. I'm still very involved in animal rescue through disaster response as well as large scale animal cruelty case deployments. Currently, I work for/co-founded an organization which provides low-cost veterinary care services to underserved areas in the region. As someone who utilizes Rover heavily for pet sitting services while traveling for work, I know just how important it is to have a service like this available as well as what a trusting, reliable sitter can do for peace of mind while out of town and away from you pets. I currently work from home (when not traveling for work) which allows me to devote full days to pet care while sitting nearby in my home office. I have a large, fully fenced yard. Your dogs will be able to spend as much, or as little, time outside as they desire. I have two resident dogs who are very welcoming of all four-legged (and two-legged) visitors and will be more than happy to share all their favorite toys and most comfortable spots on the couch.
About: I’m a devoted dog mom with over 13 years of experience caring for two boxer brothers, from wild puppy days to gentle senior care, including medication routines. I’ve been around dogs, cats, and horses most of my life, and I believe every animal deserves care that honors their unique personality and needs. I’m dependable, communicative, and love giving pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. I work Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM, with a flexible lunch hour for mid-day drop-in visits. I’m available in the evenings for overnight care during the week, as well as for walks, drop-ins, and overnights on weekends, holidays, and for last-minute needs. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in every environment. I carefully follow each pet’s individual routine and needs to ensure they feel relaxed, secure, and genuinely cared for.
“Anne was truly wonderful with our JB. She is very dependable and a sent updates with photos for each visit. Felt completely at ease knowing that she was watching our fur baby. Highly recommend!”
About: My family has always had at least two dogs and I have taken care of them and my grandmas dogs. I have also volunteered at my local Humane Society. I love caring for and walking dogs and I can't wait to give your animals the care they need. I also have some experience with reptiles! I'm currently attending college so I will be unavailable on weekdays in the mid-day. However, I am available mornings, afternoons and all day on the weekends! I am living on campus right now so I will not be able to care for your animals at my house. I am more than happy to do home visits though!
About: Since I was a teenager I have worked with animals and loved every minute of it. From working in rescues, doggy daycares, and even as a vet tech in animal hospitals I truly love all animals and have lots of experience caring for numerous species. I’m currently staying at home working on building my own business so I have plenty of free time on my hands to care for your loved fur babies. I have previous experience with the medical side of pets needs whatever it may be from special cases to patching up small wounds. At my home I also have a fenced in yard and a very friendly dogs for company.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have always loved being around animals. I have experience walking dogs and have also done overnight pet sitting for both dogs and cats from time to time. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet like my own—with love, attention, and care. I’m comfortable and confident with dogs of all kinds—big or small, shy or energetic—and always prioritize their safety and happiness. I’m a student-athlete at Washburn and also work part-time, but I always make time for pet care because I truly enjoy it. My schedule is flexible around classes and work, especially in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m great at planning ahead and will always make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, their safety and comfort always come first. I follow any instructions carefully, keep a clean and calm environment, and make sure pets feel loved and secure. I take time to build trust with each animal and always respect their routine and space.
About: I’ve been an animal lover all my life. I’ve been providing personal pet care for the past two years. I get along with dogs of all ages and breeds. I can keep up with any energy level your fur baby has. I currently only have my schedule on Rover filling my time so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets needs and give them the playtime and/or walks they need daily. I will follow and maintain daily medication and feeding schedules of any complexity. I will follow all instructions given to ensure your furry friend gets the care they need. I just need to know what they can and can’t do and will make sure they are on their best behavior while I care for them.
About: I have taken care of a variety of animals from a few weeks old to seniors- dogs, cats, horses, goats, rodents, fish, etc. I grew up with dogs in my home and I've pet sit and house sat for families with dogs and cats in my neighborhood since I can remember, and for the past 8 years was entrusted with the care of my landlady's horses and dogs whenever she leaves town. I also just took care of a litter of puppies for a week and helped wean them from the mama. I just moved to GJ from Crested Butte with my 5 year old 45lb happy lil dog and I have quite a bit of free time at the moment to get to know your animal(s) and see where it goes! I just moved to town and I have availability most days for awhile. I can do drop in visits and walks throughout the day for your dogs or cats. I follow all your pet’s rules, adhere to their schedules as much as possible and communicate ahead of time everything I can and cannot do for them.
“Shelby took great care of our cat who needs some extra attention, including daily medication and has a bit of separation anxiety. We appreciated the photos she sent and comments about how he was doing while we were away. We highly recommend Shelby and look forward to booking her again in the future.”
About: I’ve had pets all my life including dogs and cats, I love animals, and I enjoy spending time with them. I grew up in a farm, and I’ve watched many family friends pets I’m currently working part time, but I’m able to maneuver my schedule very easily. I typically work Monday and Tuesday from 12 to 9 I have lots of room for pets to roam both inside and outside, lots of toys to play with and get all that energy out

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Orchard Mesa
I can’t express enough how great Annabelle is! I work 12 hr night shifts and she graciously accepted to let my pup out at a late time to help me out. She is punctual and goes above and beyond for my dog! She treats her as if she is her own. I didn’t even ask her but when my grass was wet she wiped her paws before coming in. I highly recommend Annabelle to anyone looking for a dog sitter/walker!
Abby took the most excellent care of our 2 dogs! We had to go out of town on short notice, and we'd never left our dogs before. She made us feel so comfortable knowing they would get all the love and attention they thrive on. She had awesome input to make them as comfortable as possible. 100% recommended!
Emma is AMAZING! She seriously took the best care of our pups while we were away and made sure to keep us updated. Her flexibility and adaptability to changing plans was the best as sometimes things can change around last minute for us. She also is just a sweetheart. Could not recommend her enough!

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

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.
