“Victoria was amazing. Jax had better care with her than he normally gets when we are home. Victoria sent regular updates with pictures and videos. She was completely trustworthy staying at our house. I can't say enough good things about the care she have to Jax.”
About: I grew up around dogs. At just 10 years old, my mom involved me in dog sitting for a neighbor. I worked for her until I turned 18, cleaning kennels, walking the dogs, and dog sitting when she traveled. During college and afterward, I managed a dog care and senior dog shelter, dedicating my time to caring for the dogs. After work, I would walk the shelter dogs. I have two rescue dogs of my own and simply love being around animals. I love being around animals. I'm currently in between jobs and seeking new opportunities, but in the meantime, I would love to spend some quality time with animals. It really helps bring joy and comfort to my days. I live in the beautiful mountains with my two rescue dogs, who bring so much joy to my life. If the pet is staying at its home, it will enjoy cuddles and plenty of treats.
“Patti is the best! This was her second time taking care of our boxers and we could not be more happy with the attention and love she provides to them. Extremely reliable and we would have her stay with them over and over again.”
“Emma did an absolute amazing job with my pup! Kept in contact and sent pics. I would highly recommend her! She not only took great care of Bear Bear, but also of my home. Thank you Emma!”
About: I’ve been around animals all my life. I pay attention to what each pet needs, whether it’s a bouncy pup who needs play or a senior dog who deserves patience and a softer pace. I just want them to feel safe and loved while you’re away.

About: I have years of both professional and personal experience caring for animals. l've worked in veterinary clinics and spent 3 years as an Animal Care Technician, where I cared for animals with a wide range of medical needs, personalities, and temperaments. I'm comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and recognizing when an animal may need a little extra attention or patience. I've also been a dog owner for over 15 years, and my dogs truly are my children and my entire world. Their happiness, comfort, and well-being always come before my own, and I'll bring that same level of love and attentiveness to your pets. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else's care. Whether your pet is outgoing and playful, shy and cautious, a senior who needs a slower pace, or has special care needs, l'm happy to meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'll care for your pets the way I would want someone to care for my own. I'm a self employed full time artist and I work from home. My schedule is completely flexible and I can dedicate lots of time to be attentive and there for all your pets needs. Whether l'm caring for your pets in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel as safe, comfortable, and loved as possible. I know every animal has their own personality, routine, and individual needs, so I'll always follow your care instructions closely and adjust my approach to what makes your pet happiest. l'll do my best to keep their normal routine consistent, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, potty breaks, and of course plenty of attention and affection. I'll also respect your home and make sure everything is left just as I found it.
“We had an absolutely amazing experience with Ella as our dog/house sitter while we were away on a 2 week vacation! From our initial meet-and-greet, she was thorough and prepared a list of questions to make sure she understood everything about our puppy Kai and his routine. She had also kept notes throughout the visit! We left her a Kai care guide and house rules, and she followed everything perfectly. She also asked thoughtful follow-up questions whenever something came up that was not covered in the guide, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. She sent us daily updates as well with pictures and details about what her and Kai did that day, so we always knew how Kai was doing. When we came home, Kai was happy and healthy. Our home also was even more clean than when we left it! She was also extremely respectful of our home and belongings. Ella genuinely cares about the pets she takes care of and takes the responsibility seriously. As pet owners who think of their puppy as their son, we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely trust her with Kai again! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, communicative, trustworthy, and genuinely caring dog sitter!”

About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and am comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and a wide variety of other pets. I had a Golden Retriever for 14 years and lived with a French Bulldog for 3 years, so I understand both the responsibility of long-term pet ownership and how different each animal’s personality, routine, and needs can be. I have experience pet sitting in private homes, including overnight and extended stays, and have cared for dogs, cats, chickens, reptiles, rodents, and livestock. I’m very comfortable following detailed feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions. I work remotely, which gives me flexibility and allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. I know how important communication is when you’re away, so I’m also happy to send regular photos, texts, and updates so you always know how your pets are doing. Most importantly, I try to keep each pet’s routine as normal as possible. Whether that means walks, playtime, cuddling on the couch, or simply giving a more independent pet some space, I adapt to what makes them happiest and most comfortable.Take advantage of my perhaps lower than market rate costs as I build my account and reputation! I work part time and remotely. Have free time throughout the day, and if I'm housesitting I can work from your house. Have plenty of time on the weekends also. Like I said before, I can work from your house and will spend a lot of time during the day at your house, and during the night if I'm staying over.
“Michael is an outstanding house/dog sitter that pays attention to details, is respectful in your home and truly loves dogs! He cleaned up after himself and didn’t shy away from the less enjoyable dog-care tasks. Highly recommend him for sitting.”
“Tyler was so communicative and active with my pup. He shared photos, updates and made sure Milton was taken care of and given the attention he needs. My place was clean when I returned and Milton told me he had a blast. I’m already booking Tyler for a second and third stay 10/10”

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 Silver Plume 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 Silver Plume 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Silver Plume 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!

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 .
