“Jessica literally went above and beyond to watch over our fury babies while my husband and I went on vacation. Jessica’s main fur baby was our dog simba but she was kind enough to pop in and check on the baby and big goats as well. We were so nervous going on a vacation as farm owners but she made us so comfortable. Highly recommend booking with her!”
“Jason went above and beyond to overcome some obstacles to hoa drop in visit. We admire his dedication to getting it done! We had the chance to meet him, his wife, and his dog Juniper ahead of the visit and found them all to be wonderful.”
“As always, Melissa provided great care for our older cat — he requires quite a bit — and we are very thankful for that! Also, the pictures are great :) We will certainly ask Melissa to look after our kitties again!”
“Rayelle was fantastic while caring for our cat for 10 days. She was prompt at the 2 drop in visits per day, gave him lots of love and scrubbles while there. Kept the litter box clean and everything nice for our return. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her for others who have to leave their fur babies!”
About: I work full time as a remote paralegal at a law firm. I own 4 fur babies of my own and know how important it is for them to get the care and attention that they deserve. Don’t stress while you are away at the office, because I am here to give them all the love and attention for you. I work full time as a remote paralegal and therefore am able to stop by your home during the day or night to check on your fur babies for you. I care for your dogs as if they are my own. Walks, play time, daily massages and kisses. If your dog requires certain accommodations I am happy to comply with those specifics as well.
“Cathy was great with the dogs!! She communicated very well, was on time, and took care of my babies without any issues. One is young, rambunctious, and energetic while the other is small and old but still likes a little attention and play time. She did well with both.”
“Spencer was very good with my two cats. He got the shy independent one to lay with him on the couch. He sent photos everyday and the cats looked very content. Mostly lying around in the same vicinity. Spencer also brought in the packages that were delivered. Would use him again.”
About: I have owned dogs cats and horses for over 20 years! I volunteered at a therapeutic animal ranch for 4 years and enjoy being around all animals. I love jogging and walking, and anything outdoors. I am able to administer medication and care for senior animals as well. I currently work part time however my schedule allows for a lot of flexibility as I am able to pick up and drop shifts. I am willing to travel as well. I have 3 acres of fully fenced yard where your babies can run and play. Pets are allowed and encouraged to sleep on the bed!
About: Not only have I had many fur babies over the years, I have a very special place in my heart for them. Throughout the years, I have also cared for other people's fur babies. I currently work full time with set hours. I can easily accommodate to morning and evenings schedules, including weekends. There isn't much in a schedule I couldn't accommodate. I have a privacy fencedbyard with lots of room to run. It is a very safe area to have dogs in and close proximity to the library for walking.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I grew up on a family farm in the Midwest, we raised multiple breeds and 4H projects included dog training. I helped establish two dog training programs in two prisons in the Midwest. I served for a few years on the board of a nonprofit no kill shelter in the Midwest. I have two American Shelter Dogs that are well socialized and love going out on the trails. Both behaved well enough I am 100% comfortable off leash as long as trail rules allow. My boys are just part of life in the country. We live on 40 acres. I have 1.5 miles of walking trails. We go on regular walks at home for the week we don’t make it to the trails. I am self employed and try to maintain an available schedule. My home offers an open floor plan and the outdoors offers 40 acres with 1.5 miles of maintained walking trails. Outside time with your pup will be on leash until I am comfortable with our bond. Visits at your home will be an opportunity for play time in their own environment based on their likes and needs.
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats and other animals my entire life. I've worked at a few rescues and I feel like I can work with any pet. I have epilepsy and so I have had a very difficult time keeping any traditional job and so I have a lot of down time right now. I love animals. I remember when I was young, I wanted to be a zoo keeper and I spelled it "zoo kepper". Currently I have two dogs and one cat and they are my heart. My main concern in water. I want to make sure my dogs (or any dog) always has access to water. Everyone has specific ways of caring for their pets. Personally, I like to play with my dogs and make sure they are as happy as can be. My cat just wants love so we give her lots of love.
About: I've trained my own cat to do many useful behaviors to make her life easier. I volunteer at the humane society. I've previously trained other peoples dogs as well as my own. I'm currently looking for work, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets! I am available most Sun., Mon., Thur., Sat. Between 11am-3pm. I can follow carefully written instructions if needed. I will feed and water your pets, walk dogs or play if needed and cats get play time.
“Sasha was great! I had plans change last minute so was in a pinch trying to find a pet sitter. Sasha was able to set up a meet and greet last minute so my dog Zoey was familiar with her when she did the drop-in. She is kind, responsible, and took good care of Zoey!”
About: I’ve spent years caring for pets of all ages and personalities—from gentle senior cats to rowdy, playful pups. My background in a pet store taught me animal behavior, nutrition, and how to make every pet feel safe and happy. I’m skilled at giving medications, handling high-energy pets, and offering extra TLC to seniors. With me, your furry friend will get expert care, plenty of love, and endless tail wags! Pet care is part of my everyday life—I share my home with three of my own furry companions, so love, playtime, and feeding schedules are already built into my routine. I’m used to early morning walks, regular grooming, cuddle breaks, and keeping a close eye on health and behavior. Caring for pets isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s simply part of who I am.🐾💕 I make safety my first priority, keeping pets happy and secure. I care for each pet as if they are my own. All animals deserve kindness, respect, and purrr-sonalized care.😌

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Penrose on Rover is $16 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 Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,010 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Penrose. 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 Penrose 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.
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 Penrose. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 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.
