“Ken was amazing with my senior dog - even took him to work with him! Kept me up to date when I was out of the country for 10+ days and left my house in better shape than I left it. Would trust Ken again and highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for family members and friends for years. I have experience with puppies, and senior dogs as well as reactive dogs. I have a flexible schedule so I will be able to spend plenty of time with your pet and make sure they are well taken care of. I am very active and can make sure your pets activities needs are met. I am happy to cater to whatever your pet needs to keep their daily routine.
“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!”
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.
About: I've had pets of all shapes and sizes for as long as I can remember, in large part thanks to my veterinarian mother! I have experience caring for pets, especially cats, of all ages from babies to seniors, and disabled/medically complex critters. I work in events, which means sporadic hours, early mornings, and late nights. I'm looking to pet-sit primarily on my days off, so when I'm available, I'm completely available! I can also occasionally offer mid-day check-ins/walks, usually around 12-5pm. I strive to build trust with any animal I work with, whether it's a one-time visit or a repeat client. I am attentive to the unique needs of every critter and their owners, and am comfortable with walking dogs on leash and crating animals.
“Mitch did a great job, we will gladly hire him again & refer. Came home to a happy pup and a clean house as it was left. Thank you Mitch & Rover for pairing us up. We enjoyed our vacation and our dog loved being home & not boarded. Stacy, mom of Belle. ”
“Aurelia was absolutely wonderful. We needed a last-minute house and dog sitter for our three dogs, and she stepped in without hesitation. From the start, communication was great, she sent so many photos annd updates and it was immediately clear that she genuinely cared about the dogs and treated them like her own. I wouldn't hesitate to book Aurelia again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable sitter. We're so grateful for her help!”
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.
“AnnaLiese was great!!! We have never left our dog with a stranger before. Our dog loved her and she spent the day hiking with him and relaxing at her house while we went to a concert. I would definitely recommend AnnaLiese.”
“Jennifer is the best! So super great. Her reviews are what made me book with her and I’m glad I did. Came home to two happy dogs, three happy cats, three happy goats, three happy chickens, and one very loud happy goose. She also washed bedsheets and generally kept the home in tact with all the animals I have. Thank you thank you Jennifer!!”
“Brittany took excellent care of my three adult cats and two foster kittens over a long weekend in my home! Both the cats and the home were better when we returned than how we left them - she followed the pet care instructions to a tee (including one cat that needed daily medication), sent lots of photos and updates, and even brought in mail/tidied up around the house. She went above and beyond to brush the cats and spend quality time with the energetic kittens. She was a good communicator, reliable, and trustworthy and I’d book her again without hesitation.”
“This duo is where it’s at! They were amazing with my poocho, Sven- and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable with him in their care. I received photo updates and you can just tell they have a strong love for animals ♥️ I really appreciated their help with such short notice and taking wonderful care of my boy. Thanks again guys!!”
“Moriah took great care of our senior shih-tzu in our home. When we returned from our trip, our home was as clean and tidy as we left it and our pup seemed content. We would not hesitate having Moriah house and dog sit for us again if needed in the future.”
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 watched our home, dog, and cat for two weeks. He communicated and sent pictures regularly. He was very accommodating to our delayed flight home ensuring our pets were cared for until we arrived. Our home was spotless upon our return. Highly recommend Tyler and will be booking with him for future trips!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 3,215 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Silver Plume. 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 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!
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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
