Our senior dogs require special care and Sara was the person for the job! With a senior dog herself she was able to administer meds as needed and care for pups like they were her own! Great communication and we appreciated all the pics while we were traveling. Thank you Sara! 🐾

About: I have provided consistent dog sitting services throughout 2023, working with repeat clients and building reliable routines with the pets in my care. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, including puppies under one year old and senior dogs, as well as both large and small breeds. I have experience caring for cats. I also have experience caring for: hedgehogs, reptiles, horses, chickens, and ducks. In addition to pet care, I regularly handle house sitting responsibilities such as watering plants, bringing in mail, and maintaining a clean, secure home. I focus on being dependable, attentive, and respectful of both your pets’ needs and your home. I am currently working part time, but my hours at my job are flexible, and can tailor them to fit around my clients’ needs and expectations. I care for pets in their home by following their normal routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided. I adjust care based on each pet’s age, energy level, and needs. I also keep the home tidy and secure, and can provide updates as requested.

About: I am a seasoned, responsible, gregarious, fun-loving cat/dog lady with full day availability and weekends to take care of your pet needs like they were my own. I get up with my puppy everyday feed and play a game with then take him on a morning walk. If I run some errands, he is crate trained (by me) and has some quiet time but when I get home, we normally take another walk and play a game in the backyard that requires him to run around. I also take him out multiple times a day for potty breaks. I live on a one-acre property with a fenced in yard. I have a 3 year old Labradoodle (Lincoln) with all his shots and he is very good and well socialized with other animals.

Kyla took WONDERFUL care of our senior kitty, Dori! Dori took to her right away, and Kyla gave her so much attention and TLC and did such a great job following Dori’s routine. We had a much more enjoyable trip knowing our fur baby was happy at home and getting personalized love and care! Kyla was incredible—we couldn’t ask for a better, more trustworthy caregiver—and we’ll absolutely be booking with her again!

Kairi was great. We used for her for in-person cat visits while we were out of town. She came beforehand to meet us and our cat, showed up right when she said she would, and kept us updated with photos and messages. We would happily use her again. Thanks Kairi!

About: *Administer Medication, Injections, and Fluids *Beautiful walking trails nearby for boarding clients *Big backyard for outdoor play Hello! My name is Sarah, and I’m a former veterinary technician with experience administering medications, including injections and fluids. I’ve spent years around animals—growing up on a cattle ranch gave me hands-on experience with dogs, cats, cattle, horses, and even emus! While working at a veterinary clinic, I assisted the vet during appointments and surgeries and provided care to both day and overnight boarders. I love all dogs—big, small, drooly, relaxed, and energetic—and I’m happy to accommodate their unique personalities and needs. I also offer a free meet-and-greet so you and your dog(s) can get to know me before booking. For overnight stays, please bring your dog’s food and a favorite toy, bed, or blanket. I highly recommend bringing their usual food to avoid any tummy issues, but if needed, I can provide GI-sensitive food. Feel free to reach out anytime to learn more about me and how I can care for your pets. Thank you for considering me for your pet care needs! I work part-time, which gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule. This allows me to dedicate time each day to caring for pets, whether it’s for walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays at my house. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow any specific instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication, and preferred routines. In my home, pets have a cozy, clean environment with plenty of playtime and attention. In a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and aim to keep their pet’s routine as normal as possible to reduce stress. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care so both pets and their owners feel at ease.

Kristen was fantastic. She has dogs of her own and knows how to care for the dog. Sasha was a new to us puppy and this was the first time we left her at home. Kristen took Sasha for walks and comforted her. Kristen kept us updated on Sasha's status for each visit so we knew that our dog was in good care. We will definitely use Kristen again and I would recommend her to do drop-ins.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Palmer Lake

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Palmer Lake on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 5,125 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Palmer Lake. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Palmer Lake 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 Palmer Lake 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.

To find sitters in Palmer Lake with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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.
