“Ellen was entirely amazing. She kept in contact, sending updates and pictures several times a day. She handled a medical situation extremely well. We felt completely comfortable leaving our Gracie in her care.”
“Catherine was great. She watched my pups for two evenings and took very good care of them. She arrived on time and communicated well. When I got home, the pups were as happy as can be!”
“Michaela was amazing! She took such good care of our fur babies. She communicated very well and sent many updates. The house was even cleaner than when I left it. I would recommend Michaela to any friend.”
“This is the second time we’ve booked her, and we couldn’t be happier! She is super communicative, sends lots of pictures, and replies quickly whenever we text her. Plus, our cat absolutely loves her! We highly recommend her!”
About: I’m a reliable and attentive dog owner with daily hands-on experience. I care for my own bulldog, including administering eye and nose medications, daily walks, and regular feeding. I’m comfortable sticking to routines, handling special care needs, and making sure dogs feel safe, exercised, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care is already a built-in part of my daily routine. When I’m home from college baseball at Colorado State University Pueblo, I consistently care for my two dogs with daily feeding, walks, and attention, and I also help care for cats with feeding and litter box upkeep. I’m used to structuring my schedule around practices, training, and responsibilities, so I’m reliable, organized, and able to make pet care a priority throughout the day and week. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and needs, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow feeding schedules closely, provide daily walks and exercise, and make sure pets have plenty of attention and comfort. I’m attentive to cleanliness, including keeping food areas and litter boxes clean, and I carefully follow any special care instructions. My goal is to maintain a calm, consistent environment so pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: Hii my name is Caroline & I am 27 years old :) I have been an animal lover my whole life. I got my first dog, a Westie, when I was 8 years old and helped raise and train him myself. I grew up with him and my Scottie, who were truly my babies and both lived long, happy lives. I’m currently in between pets of my own, which is part of why I’d love the opportunity to care for yours! I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets attention, walks, playtime and company throughout the day. I’m comfortable with dogs of different ages and personalities, and I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away. I’ll treat them like they’re my own🤍 I work full-time from 9–5, but I work from home Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, so I’m home most of the week. I only go into the office on Wednesdays, and even then it’s not every week. My schedule is flexible, so I can easily make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks and lots of attention throughout the day I have a secure, fenced yard and a doggy door that is perfect for smaller dogs (although I’m still happy to watch big dogs) I’m happy to care for your pet in my home, stay with them in yours, or stop by for walks, feeding, potty breaks and playtime. I know every pet has their own routine and personality, so I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll give them plenty of attention, exercise and love, and I’m also happy to send photos and updates while you’re away🤍 also can do dog walking before/after work if anyone needs just that!
“This is our first experience in trusting our pups to someone other than a family member or a friend. We cant be more pleased with our experience and it’s due to Aiden’s wonderful personality and love of animals. Aiden continuously provided us with updates and photos of our pups. He was always very prompt in replying to our messages. Both the pups settled in with him very comfortably and even though it took our 16 year old Ruby a little longer, she came around. We are so pleased with Aiden’s care for our pups, we’ll definitely book with him again and refer him to our friends and family.”
“We have a chaotic house with four animals, but Avery was unfazed. Right away it's obvious she is great with animals. She stayed at our home for two weeks and managed the madness beautifully. Professional, highly communicative, and genuinely caring. Our fur babies loved her!”
“Jeanette put her whole heart into taking care of our boxer, staying with him for a three night weekend. Because he loves to ride in the car, she took him with her on several trips and gave him lots of TLC. We recommend her highly and plan to use her again.”
About: I work at a dog boarding & training facility. I have been the trainer there for 5 years now. I personally have 4 Belgian Malinois & 1 German Shepherd. I’m currently working full time as a dog trainer at a dog boarding facility but I am available any day after 3pm & anytime during the weekends! I always make sure dogs are secure when taking them on walks whether that be their harness or making sure the collar is tight enough that it doesn’t slip off.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I’ve taken care of private commercial kennels and helped with training “challenging” dogs. I enjoy getting to know their different personalities and adjust my care accordingly. Have yet to train any of my fur babies how to make coffee, but I’ll persist! I’m retired so my schedule is very flexible. I can be available for just one day or whatever the family needs. It’s my pleasure to serve. I will stay with your dog/s the entire booking. They will be my number one priority. It’s best when they can stay in their home.
About: Hi there! I've been taking care of animals my entire life. Over the last several years I've gained some clientele and am looking to expand/build on that. I will love your pets as my own and take care of them as if they were my own. I do work a full time job but I work from home on Mondays & Friday’s. Feel free to reach out to ask questions so I can get you scheduled to help you take care of your pet. I don't currently sit in my own home as my pup is a senior citizen and can be a bit grumpy at times. I do however do overnights in my clients homes to take care of your furbabies.
“Ariel was great. Once we had our meet and greet I felt pretty comfortable. Once our trip was complete, I can say all was great and will entrust her again and again with our crew. We received great updates from her twice a day and our home was totally in order and as we left it. AND……we have four dogs so our gig is a little more challenging than most. TY to Ariel.”
“Jahci did an amazing job with our two girls. One of them is super shy and timid, but warmed up to Jahci right away. She is timely and the communication was great. She took amazing care of our place as well (pretty sure she left the house cleaner than we did!) We have already booked her for a second time and our girls are looking forward to seeing her again!”
About: I’m an animal lover with 6 years of experience caring for pets and houses for friends and family. I understand that your pets are more than just animals—they’re part of your family, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and other unique pets, including providing meals, fresh water, walks, playtime, companionship, medication, and plenty of cuddles. I’m also happy to maintain your pet’s normal routine while you’re away so they can feel safe and comfortable in their own home. When house sitting, I’m respectful of your space and can help keep your home tidy and secure while you’re away. I’m happy to bring in mail, water plants, take out trash, and make sure everything is cared for! I currently work part-time as a housekeeper, scheduling my services around my client's individual needs on a first-come, first-served basis to ensure that every need is met especially the needs of your beloved pet! I take pride in providing dependable, and thorough care and I prioritize the highest quality of service possible! I provide high quality service that emphasizes the pet’s safety, comfort, emotional well-being, routine, and overall care while the owner is away. What my high-quality pet care service involves • Understanding each pet individually: Every animal has a different personality, routine, comfort level, and set of needs. I take time to learn the pet’s habits, likes and dislikes, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and behaviors rather than providing one-size-fits-all care. • Maintaining their normal routine: Pets generally feel more secure when their familiar routine is maintained. This includes feeding them at their usual times, refreshing their water, cleaning litter boxes or potty areas, providing walks or playtime, and maintaining their normal sleeping and daily schedule. • Providing companionship and attention: my quality care includes genuine interaction. Depending on the pet, that may mean playing, brushing, walking, giving affection, talking to them, or simply sitting with them. For pets that experience separation anxiety, calm companionship can be especially important. • Keeping the pet safe: As your pet’s sitter I prioritize creating a secure environment and preventing situations that could put the animal at risk. This includes checking doors and gates, being mindful of hazards, monitoring interactions with other animals, and following the owner's specific safety instructions. • Observing behavior and health: As your pet sitter I pay attention and inform you about any changes in appetite, drinking, bathroom habits, energy level, mood, mobility, or behavior. Recognizing that something is different can be extremely important to your pets health and well-being. • I ensure all care instructions are completed with qualityand care regarding food, treats, medications, exercise, allergies, behavioral concerns, or special routines. • Keeping your pet's environment clean is top priority! This includes cleaning litter boxes, picking up waste in the yard, washing food and water bowls, cleaning accidents, and keeping the areas where the pet spends time comfortable and sanitary. • Providing enrichment Pets need mental stimulation as well as basic physical care. Toys, interactive play, walks, scent exploration, routine exercises, and age-appropriate activities can help prevent boredom and reduce stress. • Respecting the owner's home I ensure to treat my client's home with respect and professionalism. This means being responsible with keys and access, keeping the home secure, cleaning up after the pet, and leaving the home in good condition. • I prioritize communicating consistently providing you with reassurance that your pets are safe and doing well. A high-quality and meaningful updates about your pets day and, photos or video updates. Communication is open and honest—if something unexpected happens. My high quality services ensure and prioritize that your pet is treated with patience, compassion, responsibility, and genuine care—not simply being checked on!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Prairie View walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Prairie View maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Prairie View 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
