About: I grew up with dogs and have pet sat for family and friends over the years. I even pet sat 2 birds when I was 11, learning that I am not a bird person 😅 but I love the pups. I have a year of professional dog walking experience and am excited to be able to add pet sitting. I have helped train the family pets my whole life mostly the basics: perimeter training, no jumping, stay, sit, etc. I will implement any training techniques and goals you have been working on with your pup to be sure they keep growing. If your pup is in their final years I would love to help you make them the best. I was able to see my beloved Rocky and Zuri through all their days. Zuri's hips where too weak in the end. A almost hundred pound rhodesian ridgeback, I would carry her when needed often having her lay on blankets and pulling her around the house then lifting her out side. She was such a sweet girl her and Rocky both lived for about 14 years. I am available any day after 2pm. I work mornings so am not always availble in the mornings. During the summer this does lead to later walk times since the heat is so much. If sitting it would also mean really early walks on my work days. When am taking care of another's beloved pup I do my best to maintain their routine and any precaution their parents take. I.e. keep on the leash, watch that they don't eat stuff, crating when home alone, etc.

“It's always a joy to have Lily walk the dogs. We were watching our daughters dog who was a little unfriendedly the first time meeting her (which was normal for this dog). Lily knows and understands dogs and was able to have the dog get comfortable with her. Both dogs came back tired and exhausted but very happy from their morrning walk. Highly recommend her!”
About: I am a recent graduate from Colorado State University majoring in Animal Sciences and minoring in Zoology. During my time completing my undergrad I have had many opportunities taking care of dogs and cats for clients up in Northern Colorado. I am very detail oriented and attentive to my care for your fur babies. I also am known to be a great dog walker and have had some experience handling medication for cats and dogs. I’m currently going through vet tech school at Pima Community College! This semester is all online which allows me to be a bit more flexible with my schedule :) I am at your service and can be flexible with schedules throughout the week with communication! I have reliable transportation that’ll allow me to visit homes and check up on your animals during the day! Currently I am not doing any boarding in my home.

The only day that I am not fully available is Sunday from 6pm-9pm due to a weekly engagement. As a dog walker, I will take your dogs on walks, take them to the park, or whatever you need me to. If I am dropping by to check on your pets, I will check on all the necessities and make sure to locate all pets (and send pictures).

About: I grew up with dogs and had cats as pets as an adult. I love both dogs and cats (and all animals) but have the most experience with these two. I can do dog walks, grooming for both dogs and cats, drop ins for feeding, bathroom and any other needs, overnight stays and longer term stays if needed! Please note: I'm happy to travel for meet & greets and bookings, but for locations more than 15 miles from me will include a travel fee due to distance and fuel costs. Please message prior to booking if you are outside this range. Thanks for understanding - it helps me keep providing reliable care for clients. Same-day requests may also incur an additional fee depending on availability. *Lastly* if you see any dates on my calendar that looked blocked off (especially if they're highlighted in yellow) you can still reach out to see if you're close enough for me to do drop in visits! Dates highlighted in yellow just mean I have another booking but I'm still able to fit in drop in visits! 😊 I work remotely so I'm more flexible, esp if I'm doing any daytime or overnight stays. I work 7 am-4 pm M-F and can easily step away from my job as needed. I'm gentle, safe, reliable, intuitive and quick to pick up on how animals are feeling. I also take into consideration any special needs animals may have.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. You name the animal, I’ve lived with it and cared for it! From horses, to chickens, to birds, to cats, to dogs, I’ve done it all! Along with this, I have experience with animals small and large, so the size of your baby means absolutely nothing negative to me! I know it can be hard to find a sitter for a breed that may be a little more intimidating to some, but I believe that every animal deserves the same love. I have experience giving dogs pills, and I know how particular they can be about taking them. That’s nothing to worry about with me, I always make sure to find something specific to that dog that will get them to take their medicine! I also know how hard it can be to find a sitter for a rescue, especially one who is still timid. I’ve grown up with rescues, and know the level of patience and love they need to be shown. I am also able to provide support to senior dogs or dogs who need a little more help getting around, I’m able to make them comfortable and happy! I also have experience training puppies to do basic tricks, such as sit, speak, shake, and lay down. I would absolutely love to provide your baby with the care they deserve! I currently pet and house sit as my income. This means that my top priority is ensuring that your baby is taken care of at all times. I have an extremely open and flexible schedule, and am able to do check ins at almost whatever time you prefer. I know that when I’m entering your home, I’m also entering your pets home. It can be scary for them to have a stranger come to their safe space, but I provide patience and an upbeat personality to make them feel comfortable. I’m cautious, but also loving and wanting to do everything I can to make your pet happy! I respect both your space and your pets.

My schedule remains flexible throughout the rest of the week, allowing me to provide dependable pet care, regular walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions while keeping doors, gates, and leashes secure.

About: In my house hold we have owned many pets of all shapes and sizes. I have always been surrounded with pets and love each and everyone. Every animal has a different personality and I always love to get to know each one and what they like and dislike. Right now in my house we have three dogs two cats and a tortoise. I have a job working in the morning for 4-5 hours then a 2-3 hour break then more work for 4 hours then I am off during the week and on the weekend I free so I have plenty of time to let dogs out on my break and be with them for a little before going back to work. I have been babysitting for many years but really wanted to start pet sitting as I love animals and love getting to know different breeds as they all have such interesting personality’s (I’ve always wanted to meet a cat that loves water)
About: 8+ years caring for dogs, cats, and special needs pets — patient, gentle, and always treating your pets like my own. I’m comfortable with seniors, puppies, shy pets, and administering medication. At home, I share life with my “doggie brother” Scottie (a sweet, sociable dog) and my own “doggie son” Colby (a playful corgi puppy). Living with them has given me daily, hands-on experience meeting different needs and personalities. I adapt my care so every pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Expect regular updates, photos, and a whole lot of tail wags (or purrs!). I’m available every day, including most evenings, and can work with a variety of schedules. Pet care is my main focus, so you can count on consistent, reliable service. I’m happy to accommodate both regular bookings and last-minute needs (for boarding or house sitting, I prefer 3–5 days’ notice when possible). I mainly serve the Tanque Verde area and nearby neighborhoods. My home is quiet, low-traffic, and pet-friendly — perfect for boarding. Message me with your dates or special requests, and I’ll do my best to make it work! Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I tailor care to each pet’s unique personality, creating a calm, loving environment that feels like home. For Dogs: My home is fully equipped for canine guests — multiple comfy beds, fresh food and water bowls, high-quality dog food, puzzle toys for mental stimulation, leashes for walks, grooming supplies, dental care items, and plenty of healthy treats. A secure fenced yard provides safe, supervised outdoor time. For Cats: I have cozy cat beds, scratching posts, and toys ready for play. To keep your cat’s routine familiar, I ask owners to bring their own litter box, litter, food, medications, and any favorite items that bring comfort. This helps reduce stress and make the transition smooth. Meet My Resident Pets: • Scottie (West Highland Terrier): Gentle with cats and friendly with all dogs. Experienced in living harmoniously with cats. Greets politely and gives space after an initial sniff. • Colby (Pembroke Welsh Corgi): A playful puppy with great adaptability, quick to settle after meeting new friends. Always friendly, even with bigger dogs. Both are fully vaccinated, well-socialized, and groomed regularly. They’re used to meeting new pets and can be kept separate if your pet prefers solo time. What You Can Expect: I follow all owner instructions carefully, maintain a clean pet-friendly space, and provide the right mix of play, exercise, and relaxation. Whether your pet loves cuddles or active play, they’ll get individualized attention and care — so you can travel with peace of mind.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Vail. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Vail.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Vail. On Rover:
- 97% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
