“I can’t say enough about Elisha, she is fantastic and I am so thankful we found her on Rover! Our pittie mix adores her and I know that she is so well taken care of with Elisha. I love the photo updates while playing in the backyard, then all snuggled up and happily pooped afterwards. Always great communication and updates, very responsive. Everything you could want when looking for a sitter for your fur-children and home!”
“Our three pets have three different personalities. Wendy was able to accommodate each of their needs. She has a calm presence and our pets seemed to enjoy their time with her. We look forward to asking her to pet-sit again in the future.”
“Andrea was wonderful with my pup. She immediately sat on the floor to meet my puppy on his level. I can see even from this initial visit that she loves animals and that she has a big heart for life too. I love the energy she exudes!”
“Alyssa was a wonderful pet sitter while I was unexpectedly traveling. My pup loved her and she went above and beyond with the photos/communication. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to work with for my first time using Rover. Thank you Alyssa!”
“Cassandra was great with our two boys! They felt very comfortable with her from the start. She sent lots of updates and photos and we came home to two happy dogs. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Noel was absolutely wonderful taking care of our dog, Ursula, during her drop in visits while we were away. She provided thoughtful updates and plenty of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our favorite part was seeing Ursula’s silly personality shine through in the pictures. It was clear she felt comfortable, happy, and had so much fun with Noel. We came home to a happy, well cared for pup and could not have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely book with Noel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable Rover.”
“Amanda is ANAZING! She is always reliable and the dogs absolutely love her. She is also flexible and always communicates schedule changes. I feel so relieved knowing my dogs are in such good hands and actually loved on and cared for!”
“Adyson was so great! We were on vacation for two weeks and I asked her if she could walk the dogs once a day. She showed up every day giving me full trust our pups were taken care of. She is also very responsive. Thank you so much! Highly recommend her.”
“I absolutely would recommend Taylor! She was very nice and respectful of my home, and did a superb job taking care of my pups. Her hours were flexible and she was able to accommodate my needs - even though they were last minute. She’s good with animals and I would certainly trust her to watch them again in the future!”
“Amy was fantastic with our older cat who requires medicine everyday. I wasn't worried at all about him while we were gone and she was great about communication with us! I definitely recommend her!”
“Cameo was amazing with our boys! She was always on time, provided a ton of photos and updates, and she was extremely reliable for anything we needed. We will definitely be asking her to do drop ins and dog sitting in the future!”
“Cassidy was great and kept me updated on my dog every visit with pictures! Good communication :) You can tell she loves dogs and I felt comfortable over Christmas with her watching my pup!”
“Patricia was excellent! We came home to 2 happy kitties and a clean litter box. Even our very shy kitty came out to say hi to Patricia during her visits. We have 2 seniors (9 and 18) and felt they were in excellent hands for our short trip. Patricia sent us photos of both cats during her visits and kept us updated with brief messages. We will definitely be booking Patricia again!”
About: Hi, I’m Rosie! I’m an experienced animal caregiver and I am very passionate about providing safe, loving care for every pet. I’ve known since I was little that I wanted to work with animals, and this opportunity allows me to continue building that path while I’m in college. Through my previous job, I gained hands on experience and a strong understanding that animal welfare always comes first. I’m committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! Since I’m currently taking college courses I am usually online finishing assignments but since I am online I make sure to keep my schedule flexible so I can provide reliable, attentive care for your pet. I’m always happy to communicate and find times that work best for you! Safety and trust are my top priorities during walks and drop-ins. I always ensure collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure before walks and stay aware of our surroundings to keep your dog safe and comfortable. As for drop-ins, I carefully follow your pet’s routine for potty breaks (or ensuring a clean litter box!), feeding, fresh water, and playtime. I double check that doors and gates are secure before leaving and treat your home with respect. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands!
“Darla was great! This was our first time leaving our two kittens and she made them feel so comfortable and loved during our trip. Highly recommend for any of your pets!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Thornton
Julianne was a great sitter for our two cats. She was prompt with the scheduled timing, followed care instructions thoroughly and to completeness, ensured that our guys were healthy and happy, and would play with them for any extra time she had during the visits. We also really appreciated the pictures of our cats that she’d send after every visit. Our cats get antsy/restless when we get back from weekend trips when we leave extra food/water and forego a check-in, but they were clearly relaxed and calm when we got back: the best sign to see that they were well taken care of while we were away. Thank you again Julianne for your great care of Chai and Bean, and I’m sure they will see you again when we next go out of town!
Thank you, Rachel! You are amazing. I always appreciate your detailed communication while I’m away. Thank you for bringing in the packages that were delivered, as well. The pictures you sent made me feel so much better knowing the boys were well taken care of. Thank you again for the peace of mind. You’re the best! 😊
Carlie always takes the most amazing care of my cats when I’m away! I get detailed updates and plenty of pictures of them which puts my mind at ease knowing she’s the one watching them. She’s also able to give my cat his medicine even when he’s feeling picky. Would definitely recommend.
Marina was my first pet sitter, and left me feeling at ease. She took tons of pictures of my cat while I was gone, left my place in the same condition, wrote detailed notes about how my cat was doing, and even brought in a package that was delivered while I was out. I’ll be rebooking with her next time I take a trip.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Thornton on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 6,927 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Thornton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Thornton. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
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.
