“Marissa was awesome with my cat, Oscar. She was super responsive in getting a short notice drop-in organized for my long weekend away. Oscar liked her right away and she was totally at ease with him. While I was away she was on time and communicative about how Oscar was doing. I would absolutely book Marissa again!”

“Alanna did a great job taking care of my cat while I was away. She stopped by multiple times at my apartment and made sure he was happy and well taken care of. She cleaned out his litter box, gave him fresh water, and played with him. Would definitely recommend Alanna if you need someone to watch your pet while you’re away!”

About: Hi! My name is Sydney and I've regularly walked my neighbors' dogs since I was 12. That role made me the go-to pet sitter for most of the households on my block! I've taken care of senior dogs over the age of 14, puppies, cats and kittens. At home, I have a cat and two dogs myself (a lab and a cavapoo). I work a hybrid job and can regularly check-in and be present with your pets! If you board with me, my pet-loving family is happy to play with your pup all day long as well! I have a fenced in yard and two dogs and one cat, so your dog needs to be friendly with other dogs. My cat is very good with dogs and my two dogs are friendly as well.

About: I have had dogs my whole life ranging from 175 to 50 pounds. My family also breeds dogs so I’m comfortable with all ages. I have dog sat for numerous family and friends and love all animals so your pet will get treated as if they were my own. I’ve also took care of dogs that take medication, are on special diets. I have a full time job but I make my own schedule so I will base that off of my schedule with rover. Pets will be well taken care of and took on walks. If your pet is more laid back and likes to lay around all day then we will do that. If your pet has a lot of energy and like to run the we can do that as well. I have plenty of yard for your pet/pets to play. I currently don’t have any other animals in the house and am waiting for my puppy to be born! Your pet will be allowed on furniture unless that is a rule you have then I will not go against it. I have plenty of toys, dog beds, and crates if needed.

About: Along with having cared for dogs my whole life, my most recent employment position was as a Dog Playgroup Supervisor in Massachusetts. My job was to pick up dogs from their homes and bring, on average, 8 dogs at a time to a private field for them to play and socialize together (As a treat take a look at my photos if you want to see some adorable puppy photos). I loved my job, but my partner and I have recently relocated back to North Carolina for him to attend flight school, and I am continuing my career in pet care! I love all animals and am passionate about providing exceptional care for your pet. I see pets as a part of the family, and since they can't communicate with words, I put great importance on reading their body language so I can help make our time together as safe and as comfortable for them as possible. I’m on my off-season from work, so most of my time is spent hanging out with my own dog Lucy! We spend our free time hiking and taking long drives to explore new places together! I am super passionate about caring for animals and plan to continue my career in animal care; caring for animals is my main priority. I feel it is very important to assess every pet and center my care to be focused on making your pet feel as safe and comfortable as possible. I have professional dog care experience as a Dog Playgroup Supervisor and provide reliable and attentive care right in your pet's home. I follow instructions closely, as every pet parent knows every animal is different! You can spend your time away from your pet knowing they are in great hands. I will also keep you updated with photos and will keep you in the loop about how your pet is doing during our time together.

About: Lifelong pet caregiver with extensive experience in rescue, rehabilitation, and behavior management. Raised on a farm in upstate New York, I developed a deep understanding of animal care from an early age. I later helped run a Pit Bull rescue and rehab facility, where I gained specialized experience training and handling high-needs or difficult dogs, including those recovering from abusive situations. I bring this deep patience, calm confidence, and expert care to every pet and home I watch. As a widow and empty nester, my schedule is beautifully unhurried and entirely open to focusing on your home and pets. Without the demands of a chaotic household, I offer a level of calm, undivided attention that is hard to find. My mornings and evenings are dedicated completely to your pets' routines—whether that means peaceful early walks, timely feedings, or plenty of evening couch cuddles. I have the flexibility to spend major blocks of the day present in your home, providing consistent companionship while respecting your space. Pet sitting blends perfectly into my life because I genuinely value the bond and comfort of animal companionship, giving you total peace of mind that your home is secure and your fur babies are loved like family. I provide premium, attentive care exclusively within your home, ensuring your pets remain in the comfort of their familiar surroundings while your property stays completely protected. My approach to animal care is rooted in a lifetime of hands-on experience, from growing up on an upstate New York farm to co-running a Pit Bull rescue and rehab. Because of this background, I know how to establish calm leadership, read subtle animal body language, and confidently handle anxious or difficult dogs.Beyond specialized pet care, I bring an exceptional level of safety to your property. As a former security guard, I am naturally observant, detail-oriented, and highly trained in securing a home. I know exactly how to maintain situational awareness, double-check entry points, and keep your property locked down and secure. Combined with my flexible schedule as a widow and empty nester, I am able to provide consistent, unhurried companionship for your pets and unparalleled vigilance for your home, giving you absolute peace of mind while you are away.

About: I have take care of pets my whole life and have had over a year of experience working in a pet resort where I got to experience taking care of all different kinds of dog breeds, ages, temperaments, etc. I also now work full time in a veterinary clinic as a veterinary technician assistant. Currently, I work full time as veterinary technician assistant 4 days of the week and this varies from week to week on which does those are. I am very willing to come on lunch breaks to do pet check-ins and/or potty walks, as well as move my schedule around to better fit pet owners. I make the pet's wellbeing and health my #1 priority when I am pet sitting because I know they will miss their owners when they are away and will do my best to make them as happy/content as possible. Having lists and notes that tell me about the pet's medications, routines, diets, and likes/dislikes is an additional help that will allow me to better suite the pet's needs that I am watching.

“Katrina went above and beyond. She took care of our cats with kindness and thoughtfulness throughout our 3 week long trip. She even left my wife and I a sweet honeymoon gift on our counter when we returned home. Her communication and check in were excellent.”

About: I have always been surrounded by dog, whether it was my own or taking care of others. I believe that dogs deserve as much love as they give us. I am a homebody, but that means that I'll be more available to hang out with your dog for walks or trips to the park. I live in a townhouse apartment, which means that I have experience with walking dogs around non-fenced areas. This also means I will be observant if you do have a fenced area.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Rocky Ford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,480 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Rocky Ford. 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 Rocky Ford. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.

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.
