“Elizabeth is great. She took care of our cat and fish while we were away for a family thing. She provided pictures and documentation and we greatly appreciate it. We will definitely try to use her services again!”
“Kristin does a fantastic job taking care of our two pugs while we are away, very great with managing them, always responsive, and takes great care of our home when needed. Highly recommend Kristin”
“This is the second time we’ve used Joann, and once again, we couldn’t be happier! Our pets are well cared for, and we have total peace of mind while we’re away. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
“Brenda is amazing 👏 what a relief to have found her! Thank you, Brenda, for the way you loved on our nervous doggos, your attention to detail, your flexibility during the holiday. Telling everyone we know about you!”
“Maisie is so great, I really appreciate how communicative she is and her patience with Porcini. She takes the cutest daily pictures and is in touch for every drop in, even if there’s nothing unusual. Hoping to continue to book her for future trips!”
About: I’m a lifelong pet lover who’s had my own dogs and cats for years. While I’m new to pet sitting professionally, I’m reliable, patient, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet, and I’ll treat yours like they’re my own. Every pet has a different personality and varying needs and I’m happy to follow yours and your pets routine to make you as comfortable as possible. I currently have flexibility in my schedule to adjust to your needs for daily activities or overnight sitting. Depending on what your specific needs are, I am able to cater to each pet. I have a home with a fenced yard and no other pets in the home. I do have small children so providing a crate for overnights is needed and no aggressive history for care in my home.
“Megan was amazing!! She did drop in visits for us for the weekend and we were able to go on our trip worry free! She took care of both of our dogs and we would totally hire her again!”
“Rachel did a wonderful job taking care of my anxious pup! I was stress free while traveling knowing she was in good hands, would absolutely recommend Rachel to anyone looking for pet care.”
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.
“Laura is wonderful!! We’ve had her come over for two separate trips now to come check on our dogs. Shes very patient, kind and I feel safe with them in her hands. Very glad to have found her☺️”
“What an absolute dream. Sydney took excellent care of my girls, and handled my asthmatic cat’s inhaler with ease. I will absolutely ask her to babysit again in the future.”
About: I’m a teacher and behavior specialist, so I naturally understand how dogs learn and communicate. My goal is to make you feel completely safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m kind, attentive, and provide consistent care and updates so you always know your dog is happy and well cared for.🥰 I am available for boarding throughout the week and weekends. I work part time (summers off as a teacher too) so will have plenty of time to check on your pup and play with them! I'll make sure you feel confident that your dog is attended to at all times. I have a fenced yard as well as a friendly and fun Aussiedoodle who loves making new friends and playing. I will let you lead on what is best for your best friend (crate, safe place, toys, etc.,).
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)
“Ash was amazing with our two cats! She was very communicative, sent great pictures, and spent the time to get to know the two during our meet and greet especially their slightly complicated feeding routine. Both our cats were super relaxed and seemed to barely notice we were gone when we came back!”
“This was our first experience using Rover and we are so happy. Averi is awesome!! Our kitties clearly sensed she was safe and kind because they came right up to her and let her let them. That’s rare for a first introduction. Thank you for taking such good care of our babies.”
“Fantastic care for our dog! Brianna went above and beyond for us when we went out of town over the holiday! She was very accommodating and kept us informed of evetything. We would definitely recommend her for anyone!”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Vail is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Vail
Elizabeth did an amazing job caring for our pets. Our dog needs oral medication twice a day and she had no problem tending to that need. She sent pictures every visit and we were so happy to look at all the pictures of our babies. It felt like a friend was stopping by to care for our pets. We will definitely book her for future care if she's available. I highly recommend Elizabeth for your pet care.
If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about dogs and goes above and beyond, I wholeheartedly recommend Brianna. We had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. The communication was excellent, and every interaction was kind, professional, and thoughtful. We couldn’t be happier and will definitely be returning. Thank you for treating our dogs like family!
Kind, gentle, professional, an excellent caregiver! I would recommend Lorena S to anyone who needs to entrust their pets while on vacation. She kept my two kitties, happy, healthy and used to their daily routine and provided value added services which made my trip away more enjoyable. Excellent communications and reports!
Jennifer does a wonderful job! Our dog had gotten a limp the night before and we had to leave early the next day but I felt very comfortable that Jen would keep us posted on things and she did. We really appreciate her care for Charlie. Will always recommend her. 😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Vail on Rover is $22.2 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 Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,248 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Vail. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Vail stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Vail. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
