“Rose is amazing!! She took amazing care of my girls and house. I get a little nervous leaving my reactive dog that has special needs but she did AMAZING with her. She gave me updates all the time and left my house spotless. I highly recommend Rose.”
“Amy did a fantastic job taking care of my babies :) she walked Bee, made sure she took her medicine, and gave them both plenty of snuggles. I would absolutely rebook if needed <3”
“Nicole was great! She was a trooper when my pup locked her out of the house! She was attentive and sent lots of updates and pictures! She walked him and threw the ball endlessly! Would definitely recommend!”
“Katelyn is very sweet. Came by for a meet and greet a few days before she stayed over and took care of my 8.5 year old dog, Cooper. She is very gentle and quiet and animals respond well to that. She sent me updates over the weekend on how Cooper was doing. I came home to a happy dog and a neat and tidy place, I would book her again!!”
“Erin was amazing!! We got lots of updates throughout the days we were gone and the animals were so well taken care of. She had to help us inject our diabetic kitty with insulin twice a day and was able to do that flawlessly. I highly recommend Erin to anyone for her great services! Thank you again 🤗”
“Nice was an awesome dog sitter for my pitbull! She was very responsive and kept me up to date with daily messages throughout the stay. I would highly recommend and use her again for future pup sitting! :)”
“Isabel is awesome! She is very responsive. She came over before the stay, so she could meet the dogs and get familiar with my house. During the stay, she kept me updated daily with pictures and videos. I knew my dogs were safe and they were in good hands. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“McKenna was wonderful! Not only did she take great care of my two dogs and two cats while we were gone for two weeks, but she also helped coordinate with my landlord while we were gone to get something fixed at the house. Highly recommend!”
About: While growing up, I have had cats and dogs my whole life! Ranging from small dogs to larger dogs, I am comfortable with anything in between. I have done pet sitting throughout the neighborhood, but I would love to have more opportunities. Animals are just the best. I work in Broomfield Tues-Thurs at the office from 8-5. However, on Mondays and Fridays I work from home and have a very flexible schedule so I can definitely make time to pop in and do an in-house check in and plenty of dog walks! I am usually pretty flexible on the weekends as well! I am very respectful in someone else’s home and ensure safety for your pet since that’s what I would want from anyone watching my fur baby! I follow instructions and would never go astray. I like to go on long walks and I would love to have company during them!
“Taylor did a great job taking care of our girl while we were out of town for the weekend. She had great communication and sent pictures and updates. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Always takes excellent care of our pets and home! Sends pictures which helps us relax while we are traveling. Will continue to use Trish when we travel.”
“Brae did a great job with our animals and our house! We moved in a week before our trip. She dealt with a broken A/C for a few days and brought her own fans to help keep the house as cool as possible, she broke down extra boxes and put them in our recycling bin before we got home, she sent pictures daily, and left our house very clean before she left. I’ve already booked her again =)”
“Cindy is amazing sitter. She kept us well informed and took excellent care of our dogs walking them at least twice a day and exercising them out in the yard as well. Communicates well and in a timely manner. She was an overnight sitter for us and took care of our house as well. We will definitely be using her in the future.”
“Alicia is excellent! Watched our dogs over a weekend for us and took them on multiple walks, played with them in our backyard, brushed them, and sent plenty of update of pictures so we could see how much fun they were having with her. We would love to have her watch our pups again the next time we are out of town!”
“Scott was great with my girls! He took them on walks each day, loved them lots, and even did some chores before I arrived home!! He also sent lots of photos during my vacation which eased the anxiety of leaving the four-legged kids behind.”
“Victoria was so wonderful, and I’m truly grateful for her kind and attentive care of my cat. The thoughtful updates and pictures she sent were so reassuring that everything was going well. She really went above and beyond—highly recommend!”
“Haley was amazing! She comforted me by sending updates with photos and videos. I knew my two needy dogs were in good hands and it helped me enjoy my trip so much more!”
“Adyson has to be the best dog sitter we have ever hired, she had the best communication and sent so many photos and videos. My dogs can be selective with who they liked but I could tell how much they just adored her and how comfortable they were with her. I could not recommend Adyson more and we will hire her time and time again, I can not recommend her more.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sherrelwood
Angela is amazing! She is so good with my territorial heeler, and he is always excited to see her for walks! She sent pictures and an update everyday, and made me feel so secure while I was gone. I feel so thankful she was able to house sit while I was out of the country 😊.
Katy was excellent and took the best care of my fur boy! She communicated well and made sure he was safe and comfortable especially with the extreme heat we experienced while I was away. He had a blast and was very tired the next day so I know they played a ton. Would absolutely use her again!
Lauren was an incredible sitter for Stella during our honeymoon. We were out of the country and had so much peace of mind and reassurance. She did a great job updating us and we could tell our dog was doing really well, thanks for Lauren. We are so grateful!
Kat was great with our two large dogs (one is a puppy). She left the house in great shape and the dogs seemed happy and well cared for when we got home. She has a real love for animals and you can really tell that she loves taking care of them! We would definitely recommend Kat.
John & Chantal were fantastic. Last minute before we left our dog had to get some pills and a cone from a medical procedure and they took fantastic care of him with pills and keeping us up to date with his healing process. They also doted on our cat and gave them both lots of love and cuddles while we were away.
She took excellent care of our dogs, and we couldn't be happier with her service. When we got home, our dogs were incredibly happy and clearly well cared for. She always kept us updated with photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She even took the time to do a meet-and-greet visit beforehand and was very thoughtful and detail-oriented in everything she did. We will definitely hire her again and highly recommend her 100% to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Sherrelwood
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Sherrelwood on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 9,026 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Sherrelwood. 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 Sherrelwood 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 Sherrelwood 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 Sherrelwood 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.

- 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.
