“Jennifer was fantastic throughout the entire process! She was very responsive and came over for a meet and greet prior to watching our dogs in our home. This was our first time using Rover and for an out of country vacation! I was pretty nervous about leaving my fur babies, but Jennifer helped to reassure me that everything was okay. When we left, Jen came over to help with the transition and I was able to leave on my trip knowing the dogs would be well looked after. I will absolutely be booking with Jen again!”
About: Hi, my name is Aria. I got my first dog at 5 years old and since then my passion for animals has just grown. I started training, walking, and babysitting dogs when I was young, then went on to start and run a dog rescue 8 years ago, Boonie Babies. I have personally cared for over 1,000 animals, rescuing, rehabilitating, and adopting out hundreds and working with hundreds more in-clinic working as a veterinary assistant. Needless to say, I have plenty of experience with dogs and am comfortable with any breed, from mutts, mastiffs, to chihuahuas. I will treat your fur babies like they are my own whether that be taking them for walks or hikes, or just lounging on the couch together. My goal is to make your pups as happy as possible when you’re unable to. Contact me if you have any questions or are interested in my services. Thank you. I have recently moved back to Pueblo Colorado after nine years running a dog rescue on Saipan. Therefore, my days are currently free with the exception of some time set aside to care for and fulfill my own three dogs, two cats, and horse. I'm flexible and willing to work with most schedules. With vast experience of animals in my own home, usually caring for 16-20 dogs at a time during my rescue running days, I am more than comfortable with both sitting and boarding dogs. Everything I do with the animals I am caring for is intentional to prioritize their health and happiness. I rely on structure and my knowledge of dog body language and behavior to ensure a smooth and safe stay with me or comfortable interactions as I enter their own home. Owner-home services such as dog sitting or walking, I can comfortably integrate into your setting and care routine. In my own home, I am also happy to follow care instructions while providing a safe and comfortable home experience for your pet. I provide access to a fully fenced in outdoor space with grace and rocks as well as calm, and comfortable indoors. I'm willing to follow all care instructions with the exception of those that harm your animal's health. For example: overfeeding.
“Beverly did a great job with our dog Koda. We will definitely be using her again. She sent pictures everyday and left the house exactly how we left it. I would recommend her to anyone! ☺️”
About: I live a routinely active lifestyle. I get along well with animals because I never give them a reason to not get along with me. I also provide services like shoveling snow, racking leaves, watering plants, and pulling weeds, and taking out the trash. If interested please reach out for further details. I am also looking to gain more experience training all kinds of lovable pets. I’m athletic, so I’d be able to give your dog some good exercise and I know some great spots for dog walks. You can count on my communication, consistency, and efficiency. (For extra cash) I also provide: pulling weeds, mowing lawn, taking out trash, watering plants, collecting mail, any thing that makes your life easier. My philosophy is to always consider the little things in completing tasks. Roll the dice on me😁 I have a flexible schedule! As long as we plan ahead of time I can adjust my schedule fairly easily. Otherwise I would decline the offer. I’m great at following directions and from my perspective pets tend to trust me right away. I ask plenty of questions to make sure the client and I are on the same page.
About: Currently, I work part-time at boarding & grooming facility in Pueblo West, CO. As a kennel technician, I work with dogs/cats of all behaviors and a variety of medications (except ones with a needle). Now approaching 2 years working there, I can handle just about any quirks your pets have. My mom has always worked in vet medicine, so my passion for animals started from the beginning! My real pet care started when we brought home a Aussie/Border Collie rescue, while I was just a pre-teen. He was very emotionally shut down when we brought him home, technically, not adoptable. This was my first in-depth introduction to dog behaviors and how complicated herding breeds can be. My other main passion is photography, which dogs are one of my favorite subjects! While the services I offer vary, my main love is nature & wildlife. When I'm not working at the kennel, I'm building my business! I work part-time, but my schedule can be a bit sporadic, either a half day in the morning or afternoon (either 7am-1 pm or 1pm-6pm). The rest of the time, I would be able to spend with your animals! While house-sitting, I like to spend lots of time with the pets because I value their trust & comfort over anything! I'm an early riser, so we can get outside for a walk before it's too hot! With lots of practice and a strong Pitbull of my own at home, I can handle walking strong dogs. Pets are treated as an equal member of the family! Being in their space, I understand the importance of maintaining their routine and habits. I know from my time at the kennel that feeding/medication schedules and directions can be very specific. Also, I am happy to continue any training or work they've already been doing!
“Allison did an incredible job watching our two dogs and a cat for the week! Leading up to the stay sure was communicative and responsive. Our girls really like her and from the photos she sent looked very happy and well cared for. She was consistent sending daily updates and pics. She was reliable, leaving for the times she said she would be. She took our pups out most days to play and on rainy days made sure they had indoor play and puzzles games. We were very happy with Allison and hope to use her again! We felt confident that our girls were safe and happy while we were gone. Our house was left just as it was when we left.”
About: I don’t mind any size dog or breed. I’ve owned two Siberian huskies in my life. I also grew up around a chow chow and Rottweiler. I also don’t mind helping with basic training skills. I will provide active care if requested. I walk dogs but also do bike joring for the proper dogs! Hope to hear from you! Hi, I’m Baron. I work part time at a golf course and am excited to try rover. I’ve had multiple dogs throughout my life and have taken care of may friends and family dogs as well. I don’t mind if dogs as I’ve had two Siberians in my life! I will gladly take the dogs for a walk, or game of fetch. Whatever is requested. I love dogs and am also an active person! If the dog just like to relax that’s fine too!
About: I'm a caring and responsible dog walker/sitter in the Pueblo, Colorado area. I have experience handling multiple breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have pets of my own so I understand the importance of keeping your fur baby in good hands! I am available daily throughout the week as often as services are needed. I provide care as early as 7am, even overnight and house sitting. I have a fenced from yard with 3 other fur babies and also a crate/6ft+ yard leashes. When I am in the comfort of your home I can adjust as needed!
About: My whole adult life I’ve had the privilege of caring and loving many dogs and cats. I work with a pet rescue organization that has provided me with the knowledge and experience to give the best care for your loved ones. I am a full time musician and have spent 25 years touring all over the world. I lost my dog who traveled with me everywhere a few years back and now, taking a much needed break from the road, I am finding lots of extra time that I would love to fill surrounded by animals. I have just relocated to this area from Florida and my schedule is wide open. Every pet is different and has its own specific needs. I love long walks, to play fetch, swim, or just watch squirrels if that’s what they are into. I also have some experience with training on a leash, potty, and simple commands. A discussion about your animal, specific needs, and character is a good place to start.
About: Hello:) My name is Brylee. I live with two doggos myself, and love animals. I've had family pets growing up, and was always the designated pet sitter. I understand what an addition any beloved pet is, and am excited to get the opportunity to take care of your sweet addition! I work full time Monday through Friday, however I have one hour lunches if I needed to do checkups, and am available on weekends if needed. I live in a condo, with very friendly neighbors, most of whom have pets as well. My roommate and I love taking our dogs to the dog park, or cherry creek, letting them enjoy beautiful Colorado.
About: I’ve been a vet assistant for over 3 years and am studying to be a vet tech. I have experience with a wide range of temperaments and medical conditions and understand the care needed. I am fortunate to be able to see first-hand the beautiful, unique love between humans and their pets. I know being away from our fur babies can be stressful for you and them so I guarantee that I will give the love, comfort, energy and care needed as though they were my own :) For four days a week, I work 8am-6pm. I offer my services before and after. On my days off, which are inconsistent, I am open all day unless otherwise specified. Available on weekends too, unless otherwise specified. With clear, precise information on your pet, their lifestyle, and with you and your home, I am able to do whatever is needed with safety and satisfaction.
“Leslie stepped-up as our dog sitter at the last minute due to a cancellation by the initial sitter. She immediately put us at ease in our time of distress. An angel in disguise! Her warm-hearted nature and love for dogs really shine through. She asked detailed questions about the care of our dogs and outlined the plan for where the dogs would sleep and hang out while in her home. Each day of our trip, Leslie sent pictures and updates to keep us in the loop. The dogs appeared so happy we were almost afraid they would not want to return home with us. Leslie provided such great care of Viggo and Lola! We are forever grateful for her service. Would recommend her without hesitation and intend to use her again and again. Thank you so much, Leslie!”

Haily was great. We are so thankful for her patience with us being over protective dog parents lol. She was flexible and open to connect before booking so our pup could meet her. She sent cute pictures throughout her visit w our pup and was super responsive in communication with us. :)
Delaney was wonderful. She took care of my 2 dogs and cat. She updated nightly with what activity they did for the day, including going on walks, going to the park, and their eating habits! The house was in pristine shape when she left! I would recommend Delaney and I will definitely book her again!
I’ve used Amanda several times to care for my two labs, and she’s been wonderful every time. She’s incredibly responsive, reliable, and clearly loves what she does—our dogs absolutely adore her. It’s such a comfort knowing they are in great hands when I'm away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Salt Creek 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 Salt Creek 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 Salt Creek 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
