“Eric was a wonderful house and pet sitter! Our dog, Willow, loved Eric and his dog Rufus. Eric took Willow on many hikes and left our house in pristine condition. We would definitely recommend Eric to anyone living or staying in Summit County! Thank you so much!”
About: I have had many dogs throughout my lifetime growing up, taken care of newly born pups, and mother while in process of giving birth. Have been given dogs to train and have trained and found loving home for them. Rescued a 3 week puppy almost dying, put him in healthy position, and found family after 3 months. Always been really patient with animals because they do not have a voice therefore we as human have to make sure we can communicate with them.
“Sarah (goes by Alex) is great. She took good care of our old cat and young dog. She was responsible, responsive, timely and respectful. She also sent us pictures of the kids so we know they had a blast.”
“Madi was excellent in caring for our pets! Highly recommend her in caring for your pets. She was always sending us updates, photos and in constant contact about our dogs while we were away!”
“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.”
“We had a great experience with Mitch! He took wonderful care of our greyhound, Ollie, while we were up in Breckenridge for the weekend. Mitch was responsive, kind, and Ollie was happy and relaxed when we got home. We’d definitely book with him again.”
“Samuel was the best dog sitter we have ever had. He was attentive to our dog and took good care of our house. I can not recommend his service enough. Thanks again Samuel. You made our vacation stress free!”
About: I have Grown up with cats indoor and outdoor. With dogs as well and had plenty of experiences with medication and special care for them. I am very patient in taking care of elder pets, helping them physically such as getting in the car. I'm also very perceptive and keep a good eye and notice if there's any potential illness I have a deeper passion overall for animals leading me to volunteer at animal sanctuaries in Costa Rica. I know your little one will be well taken care of. I work remote and I'm able to take good daily care. I'm an active person and going for walks won't be a problem. I will give you updates daily or as often as you like. I am sober, not much in the way of parties. At night will often of do some virtual gaming with friends
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.
“Melissa was a great pet sitter! She stayed at our house with JJ (our large German Shepherd mix pup) while we were traveling, and gave him lots of love and attention. She was timely, communicated well, was flexible with our schedule, sent cute pictures and updates each day, and went above and beyond to accommodate a short-notice stay. She left the house clean and neat. We will be glad to book her again if she is available when we are traveling.”
“Brenna was amazing! She was communicative, professional and so loving! We had no concerns while we were away as it was clear our frenchie was in great hands. 10/10 - highly recommend. We will definitely be using her again :)”
“Morgan was amazing - daily updates and pictures - arrived to a clean home - and most importantly, my dog was happy and well exercised when I got home! I will definitely use Morgan again! She even sent me pictures of my flowers that bloomed while I was away!”
About: I decided long ago I'll never live without a dog in my life. I'll treat your dogs as my own while they are in my care. Sadly, my two big dogs passed away this past year and we miss them terribly. I take special care of senior dogs, giving them extra love. I've also been teaching those close to me how to train dogs. There's no reason to gate keep that knowledge. So not only can I train your dogs, but I can also teach you everything I know. We begin our day with cuddles and stretches. I work from home and enjoy a half acre, fenced in back yard in Lakewood. We walk the neighborhood, as well as Crown Hill and Sloans Lake. My day care rate covers a standard daytime stay (8 hr). For significantly longer stays, I may adjust the booking total based on the hours needed. I have a small home with a huge yard. My little dog lost her two big brothers this past year and we're looking forward to hosting your dog/s to come play and cuddle. She's a typical little dog who barks at you ~~ then cuddles you.
About: *Im having an hard time changing our official names on the app; but we were three and are now just two! After a bit of a hiatus, where we got married, went on an extended honeymoon and moved to a new space in Denver. Wild times! We are back in action! Between the two of us we have 8 years of experience watching mainly cats and dogs, both in our own homes and housesitting. We’ve lived in a van, housesitting around the country and are able to deal with most things that come up; living on the road made us adaptable and flexible! We’re comfortable with dogs of most temperaments. While we have less hands-on experience with reactive dogs, we’re more than happy to care for them for a few days if you provide all the necessary tools (muzzles, bark collars, etc). We do have a smaller space than our previous few years in Denver, so we can’t accommodate biggies. Our space is a home in Barnum area with a front & backyard, which are not fully enclosed with fencing. We’re also steps from Weir Gulch aka lots of greenery and city trails along the Platte. I (Viki) work from home, so I’m rarely away from any pets more than 4 hours and D works in solar, so he’s out early most summer days and around much more in the off season. It would be a pleasure to connect with you and care for your pet(s). The pet can fit into our weekly routing easily as Viki works from home. Viki can go on up to 3 daily walks or one long one, we can take the dogs to the park on weekends and in evenings. We have a great backyard for ample outdoor time, I go on walks throughout the day and we can adhere to your usual schedule. There’s always someone home and if not, the animals wouldn’t be left on their own beyond five hours.
“David took care of my two high energy pit mixes for 10 days while I was in Brazil and did a phenomenal job! I got photo/video updates, and it gave me such peace of mind to have someone who really cares about my pets watching them while I was gone. He was highly communicative, and even checked in to make sure my flight was on time in case he needed to go back to take care of them in the evening. I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top notch pet sitter!”

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.
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 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!
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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
