“Our first experience with Rover couldn't have been better and it's all thanks to Dezarae! We really appreciated the updates and pictures every time she checked on our turtle & elderly cat while we were on vacation. They both seem to warm up to Dezarae quickly and we'd highly recommend using her to pet/house sit! We'll definitely be asking her to come back whenever we leave town from now on!”

“Olivia was reliable about stopping by as scheduled and helped clean up a plant the cats knocked over while we were away, unpacked an order from Chewy and was flexible when we decided to extend our trip partway through, which I appreciated. Communication was straightforward and the animals were all happy and healthy when we returned. There were a couple small care details that didn’t quite match the instructions, but overall she did provide coverage while we were out of town.”

“Amanda was super great! Highly recommend! They came over every day at the scheduled time and made sure Wheezy Cats food and water were topped off and gave him treats and lots of pets. He is super slow to warm up to other people but they got lap cuddles on day 2! Which is an accomplishment, you can tell they are big animal lovers. I was able to add a day on last minute and they also refilled the house humidifiers for me which was really nice of them! I’ll be using them again when I have to be out of town. Thank you for taking such good care of my Cat BFF and my little Betta Fish !!”

About: I grew up with dogs! I l have always been asked to watch a freinds dog or a family friend’s dog! I have plenty of experience with animals, I used to foster dogs and puppies, I did that for 2 years! I stay at home mostly all the time, I mainly do school, and take care of my dog or I clean up the house. I prefer it that way. I live in a very open house, nothing that animals would hurt themselves with around, a big fenced in backyard, tons of toys and plenty of food and water

About: I have been pet-sitting for friends and family since I was 14. I work remotely and am able to stay with your dogs/cats during the day if necessary. I love being active and taking dogs to the park or on walks everyday. I am a dependable sitter who has experience with both, puppies and elder dogs. I have sat for dogs with disabilities as well (blind, specific medication needed). My schedule is very flexible. Since I work remotely, I can house-sit and dog/cat-sit any day of the week for however long or whatever hours you need me. I am also free to walk the dogs multiple times a day as well. I am a trustworthy 25 year old woman who will respect your home and treat it as if it were my own. I always clean up after myself and respect the rules of the house-owner. I can be available 24/7 via my phone for updates/check-ins if needed.

“Andrea is an absolute gem! She is so good with animals, an excellent communicator and goes above and beyond to make sure your pet is well taken care of. During her time with our pup she would send consistent updates, took some extra time to get his energy out and left him a happy camper. Highly recommend Andrea for your pet sitting needs!”

About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals—-dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs etc. I’m a very detail oriented person and I love when an owner gives me as much detail as possible in order to take the best care of their baby ☺️ I’ve taken care of dogs of different breeds, all sizes and dogs with different needs (helping a dog thru a weight loss journey, anxious shy dogs, dogs that require medication etc). I love animals more than I love people and it shows! Anytime I meet someone’s pet, they’re always drawn to me and I feel very honored by that! I’m extremely patient and calm with animals because I have had my own pets who had special needs. I’m currently new to the Colorado Springs area and doing gig work, so I can be available to check on your pets anytime throughout the day! I treat a clients home with the utmost respect and only go where authorized or use only what the client tells me to for their pet! I’m very attentive to pets’ safety and I will treat your baby with the love and respect that I treat my own with ☺️

About: Animals have always been one of the biggest joys in my life. I’ve spent years caring for pets of all ages and personalities - from playful kittens and energetic puppies to sweet senior pets who need a little extra patience and love. In addition to having my own wonderful pack at home, I’ve fostered animals for the Humane Society and volunteered with local rescues. Those experiences have taught me that every pet is unique, and I take the time to understand their routines, personalities, and what help them feel safe and happy! I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs and cats and understand the gentle care, patience, and attention they deserve. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, medication or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, Ill care for them as if they were my own. I am a stay at home mom to two boys, I stay very active outside and I am always around for you pets needs. Pet care is a perfect fit for my schedule. I understand having a stranger in your home can be stressful. I think a meet and greet before had is a great idea to put you and your animals at ease. I am very respectful of your space and home.

“Maria was amazing with our 3 dogs! Our regular sitters they have grown accustomed to over the years were not available and while our dogs are friendly, they have their specific quirks and needs. Maria adapted to them with ease and provided everything they needed while we were gone. It was a great relief to have someone we could trust and rely on providing such attentive care! Not only this, but she also picked up their poop from the yard every day and threw it out, left the house tidy, and collected the mound of packages we accrued over the week we were gone. Thank you so much, Maria!”

About: Hello! I am new to Rover but I have taken care of dogs since I was a child and have always enjoyed taking dogs on walks, playing with them and caring for them! I am available starting at 8am and throughout most of the day. I have a very flexible schedule so can walk dogs in the morning, afternoon, and evening I follow the client’s instructions very carefully because every dog is different and every dog has different needs and I’m very adaptable. I always intend to make sure your furry friends stay happy and comfortable under my care.

About: I’ve spent my entire life around animals, and spending time caring for pets outdoors and at home is something I truly love. Growing up, I walked my childhood dog every day, which taught me consistency and a love for walking with my best friend. I’m an avid walker/hiker who loves exploring the outdoors, and while I plan to welcome an adventure-ready dog of my own in the near future, loving on and caring for your pets is the next best thing! In our home, my husband and I are pet parents to two long-haired cats - one we raised as a kitten and one we rescued as an adult cat - so I deeply understand routines, boundaries, and the importance of a low-stress, caring and understanding environment. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk or your cat needs patient company, I treat every pet with the exact same dedication, care, and respect as my own. What You Can Expect From My Visits & Walks ✨ Attentive, Tailored Walks: I stay alert to our surroundings at all times—actively watching for traffic and trail hazards—while matching the pace, route, and distance to your dog’s energy level. ✨ Thoughtful Cat Visits: Every cat has a unique personality. I let shy cats set the pace with calm, quiet companionship and engage outgoing, energetic cats with purposeful play, while keeping food, water, and clean litter boxes available. ✨ Reliable & Detailed Updates: You will always receive punctual check-ins, transparent communication, and photo updates after every visit so you have complete peace of mind. I work a consistent Monday through Friday schedule, which makes my availability exceptionally dependable: ✨ Monday – Friday: Early mornings (4:30 AM – 6:00 AM) and evenings (after 6:00 PM). ✨ Weekends: Flexible, expanded availability throughout the day for walks, extended drop-ins, and visits. Your pet’s safety and the security of your home are my highest priorities: ✨ On Walks: I use secure leashes/harnesses, keep a safe buffer from unknown dogs or wildlife, and check paw comfort on varied terrain and pavement. ✨ In Your Home: I follow your entry instructions and routines to the letter. Before leaving, I double-check that crates, exterior doors, and gates are completely locked, doors are secured, and pets are calm and settled.

About: I grew up with 6 bulldogs who needed attention both medically, physically, and emotionally. I genuinely love dogs and treat all of them like my own; understanding that dogs are family! I recently graduated from high school ant Palmer Ridge and am attending HVAC school in the fall at Pikes Peak ( this program will be part-time leaving me time to care for dogs). I enjoy caring for dogs in their own environment as I have found many dogs become stressed when they have to adapt to new environments. I appreciate detailed instructions on your dogs feeding and activity level to in order to best take care of them!

About: I am a self-sufficient, independent living in Monument, CO who has taken care of two amazing dogs for the past ten years. They are 75lb lab mixes. Since I have them, I prefer not using my home, but I am more than happy to do house visits. I have rescued and rehabilitated all my dogs with grace and patience. I adopted my third dog, a senior dog, Chloe when she was nine years old and cared for her until she passed last year at the age of 14. I strongly believe in being happy and healthy and my dogs as well as yours deserve the same. I am committed to giving your dog(s) the best treatment possible, I promise to love them as if they were my own! My hope is that my flexibility will allow pet owners to relieve some stress and get the help needed especially for the holiday season! I am currently working at a cardiology office Monday - Friday. I am available evening and weekends as needed. I am available weekends for overnight if requested. I always keep a close eye on my furry friends while they’re outside. I’m constantly monitoring for potential hazards, such as something they could injure themselves on, as well as the temperature outside. I always make sure to come prepared with a backpack that contains water and a bowl, as well as a small first aid kit, in case, either of us gets injured! I have some medical experience, and I can sometimes transfer that experience to my pets.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Palmer Lake on Rover is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $36 per visit. 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 of October 2026, there are 5,272 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Palmer Lake. 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 Palmer Lake. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
