“Tori stayed with our two dogs at our house for five days. She did an initial visit and met the dogs and we felt very comfortable with her! She was amazing!!!! Super attentive to ours babies, sent pictures, lots of walks and cuddles. She kept us updated and had regular communication. We all love Tori!!!”

“Melissa takes extra special care of our 11+ year old dog Kana. He’s peculiar and untrusting and by the end of her first day she sent me a pictures of him loving life! I would highly recommend Melissa. She’s attentive, tidy and super reliable.”

About: I have over 30 years experience raising, training, fostering, foster-failing and generally loving and caring for dogs. I work from home so will be with your pet most of the time and I love to go for long walks and runs with them. I am very active (walk, run, hike...) and have a large fenced in yard and a dog park nearby to keep your pup busy and well-exercised. Most of my clients are repeat customers as they find my services truly a "home away from home" for their fur-baby. Although I am new to Rover I have several references available outside of Rover - feel fee to request any you may like to see. I work from home so I am able to let dogs out every few hours in our fenced yard. Also walk at least an hour a day. Dogs in my home are treated as (and sometimes better 😉) than humans. Run of the house and the fenced yard. Lots of love and snuggles. Lots of walks/hikes/fetch/etc.
About: I offer personalized love and attention while you are away. My profile was inactive for a few years while my son was young but I have missed taking care of animals so am back at it. We treat your pets like family so you can enjoy your time away. I currently work part time and remotely and my son will be doing online school. Due to my flexible work I am open to days/times you need and can give your animals the attention they deserve. I care about and respect your instructions and space. I will treat your pets like family and your home as if it were my own.
About: I’ve had hands on experience caring for animals my entire life. I grew up in a household with both dogs and cats, so I’m very comfortable with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and general care. I’ve also helped care for chickens for a couple of years, which gave me additional experience with maintaining consistent schedules and attention to detail. Over the years, I’ve regularly helped friends, family, and neighbors with their pets. Whether that’s walking dogs, checking in on them while owners are away, or making sure they get the attention and exercise they need. I’m confident handling different energy levels and personalities, from more relaxed pets to those that need extra activity and engagement. I always prioritize safety, follow owner instructions closely, and make sure pets stay on their normal routines, including proper feeding (no people food unless specifically approved). My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away. My schedule is very flexible right now, and I’m available most days throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. With a lighter work schedule during the off-season from skiing, I have plenty of time to give pets the attention, exercise, and consistency they need. I enjoy staying active, so I’m always happy to take dogs out for walks, longer outings, or just spend quality time with them during the day. I’m also available for last-minute bookings and can adapt to your pet’s routine. I’m looking forward to spending my days with some furry companions and making sure they’re well cared for while you’re away. I prioritize safety, consistency, and making pets feel comfortable in their environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific rules you have in place. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, and I keep a close eye on pets during walks and outdoor time. I’m respectful of your home and aim to keep everything clean and just as you left it. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe and doing well. If caring for pets in my home, I make sure the environment is clean, calm, and pet-safe, with plenty of space for them to relax. I supervise interactions, stick to your pet’s routine, and ensure they get the right balance of activity, rest, and attention. Above all, I treat every pet like my own while maintaining the structure and boundaries that keep them safe and healthy.
About: I genuinely love animals. I grew up with two dogs and a cat. I’ve watched over other family dogs and cats for weeks and even months at a time. I work at most 6 hour shifts per day and 4 days per week so I have plenty of free time for play, walking and cuddles. I currently live with one pup who I walk daily before work and we love going on hikes or to the lake on a nice day
About: I’m work mostly remote and my dogs don’t like to run or walk much anymore. Let me exercise yours for you! I have 15 years of experience pet sitting and 10 years of experience being a dog mom. I have provided boarding, house sitting and walking services to clients in North Carolina and Colorado. I’m very comfortable with large, high-energy and high needs dogs. I have provided support for elderly dogs and dogs that need special medical considerations. Just let me know what you need and I will ensure your pets are happy and healthy! I am currently working remotely and live in Dillon. I have plenty of time to provide whatever services you need. I am a very active person and would love to support your active dog(s) or provide quality time for your couch potato. I have a fenced yard if you’d like to board with me. I always ensure pets are treated in a way the owner prefers (on-leash, only in certain areas/times of day) and any other special considerations or requests!

About: I was a foster parent for the Larimer Humane Society for years, have been around animals since I was a child. I love hanging out with pets of all shapes and sizes. Cant wait to walk and talk to pets. Walk outside first thing in the morning, breath of fresh air for the pet and myself, snacks & treats inside, play time, nap time, treat time, walk time, food, snacks, walks, play. All at the animal's preference and best needed. I have a long leash and close eye on pets. Able to put pets into a kennel or remove any negative impacts quickly. The pet's needs are first and foremost important.
About: I have been a long time animal owner including dogs and cats from all ages. I have experience with taking care of senior and disabled animals. I’m an all around animal person who also has experience with caring for exotic reptiles, amphibians, birds and aquatic animals. I am able cook for your companion(s) if they have a special diet and I am an attentive person when it comes to animals who need special attention or care. I have had dogs of all sizes and age throughout my life and also currently have dogs and cats of my own. I take dogs out to exercise twice a day and have a spacious home with animal friends for your companion’s stay. Please let me know if you are interested! Pet care is my top priority and only focus. I’m not balancing this with other jobs. Caring for animals is what I love and what I do full-time. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or drop-in visits, I plan my entire schedule around your pet’s needs to ensure they get consistent, attentive, and loving care every time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat every animal like family. I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. Whether that means sticking to their specific feeding schedule, giving them space to relax, or offering lots of playtime and snuggles. I maintain a calm, clean environment, pay close attention to behavior or mood changes, and communicate regularly with pet parents to ensure peace of mind. I’m happy to accommodate special needs, medications, or quirks. Whatever helps your pet feel happiest and most at home.

FAQs for House Sitting - Sheephorn
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 216 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sheephorn. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Sheephorn 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 Sheephorn 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 Sheephorn 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 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.
