“Santiago took such great care of our dogs over the weekend! He sent us tons of picture updates, gave them lots of playtime, and left our house cleaner than we left it. We felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in such good hands and would absolutely recommend him!”
“Emily was amazing! Our pup Maple is our pride and joy so we always get nervous leaving her, but Emily took great care of her and sent plenty of pictures and updates that felt very reassuring! She was very respectful and attentive - seemed like Maple had a great time!”
About: I'm an animal lover, and I have been pet sitting for many years through friends and referrals, as well as through TrustedHousesitters. I've had animals most of my life, but none currently. I've also volunteered at shelters for many years, and I have trained and worked in animal rescue. I also volunteered doing animal rescue after Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, for which I received an honorary award from the Humane Society. I'm comfortable with all types of animals, including dogs, cats, and other small animals. I have specialized experience with dogs, including dog behavior and dog rescue. I will take pride in providing excellent care for your animals, plants and home. I have many excellent reviews on TrustedHousesitters and Airbnb, and I can provide those links for reference. I work remotely on a flexible, part-time schedule, and I can tailor my schedule around my pet sitting commitments. My weekends often include hiking or trail running, and I'm also happy to take your dogs on hikes or runs if you'd like. Let's chat! I'm flexible with arrangements depending on the service I'm providing. - For pet sitting in your home while you're away, I would like a clean and comfortable space for me to settle in while caring for your animals. - For dog walks and/or drop-in visits, I'm very flexible. - Please just reach out to discuss details on these and other possible pet services. - Contact me for special pricing on long pet sits.
“Alicia was amazing with both of our dogs! Lots of walks, park time and loving. Alicia was extremely kind and professional and I really appreciate having someone like that to watch our dogs over the holidays! I definitely recommend Alicia to anyone looking for pet care 😊”
“Margaret was a phenomenal dog and house sitter! Lulu had a blast with her & pups and I got the best pics throughout my trip of my happy pup romping around with them. She also took wonderful care of my home and was flexible and very kind. I could not have asked for better and will absolutely book again when next I travel.”
“Joy did a great job caring for our cat Gomez. She sent us photos of him, which we appreciated, and was a great communicator throughout. We highly recommend Joy and we’ll be reaching out to her in the future. Cheers!”
“Veronika was able to handle my very shy Chihuahua without any difficulty during a two day stay at my home. Veronika is capable, trustworthy and kind. I would rehire her without any hesitation.”
“Tigran was a great dog caregiver. He shared some of his knowledge about dogs and He is a great communicator and quickly responded to all contacts. He provided daily photos of his walks with my dog and reached out as needed for clarity around house and dog needs. Tigran was respectful of our home and able to manage some complex house events while we were away. I would happily employ Tigran again.”
About: Hello and thank you for your time and consideration. I recently sold my home in VT, US and I'm setting out on adventures and travels. I am a traveling pet sitter. I've recently completed some very successful pet sits in Pennsylvania, Virginia, New York, Colorado and the UK. I enjoy matching my love of traveling with my love of animals, and enjoy meeting new friends as well. My children live in CO, so I always find myself in the Boulder area often. I love animals and enjoy the comfort they bring along with those special moments. I am a retired professional with years of experience in my profession - I was a public school teacher for over 30+ years. I am a never smoker. I only tell you this so that you get a sense that I am a responsible individual with life experience in taking care of a home, as well as taking care of beloved pets. I used to have a black lab named Mollie who passed away and I still carry her dog tags on my key chain to this day (growing up, we also had several shetland ponies). Mollie was a very special puppy. As a loving pet owner I'm sure you understand and I take my responsibilities very seriously. I would welcome to care for them according to your instructions. I have had many experiences caring for pets of all ages, including those very active youngin's, those with a little more years under their belt, and those in need of medical attention . Walks, etc. would be according to your direction and their energy levels. Thank you again for considering me, and I hope that you find me favorable, and if you have any questions, I'd be more than willing to set up a time to speak. Please be sure to check out my reviews, and I can furnish more reviews that I have received outside this app. I am proud of the care that I provide to my pet friends, as well as the lovely homes entrusted in my care. Sam My daily/weekly/monthly schedule is pretty flexible. I am a traveling pet sitter, so my time is pretty much dictated by my location, availability and my clients. According to my experiences, clients are very specific about the care they would like to have for their family pet(s). Usually they leave me detailed instructions highlighting feeding schedules, walking instructions, play likes/dislikes, medication schedules, and any other instructions needed for me to provide the best care possible for their specific pet's needs.
About: I have 10 years experience working with dogs. I tailor my care to your pet's specific needs and likes, creating an environment that feels safe and comfortable while you are away. I am available Monday through Friday and weekends upon request. I live in the West Gunbarrel area and serve Gunbarrel and Boulder. I love working with Neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ folxs. I pay close attention when leashing dogs for walks, making sure they are comfortable before going out with them. I have treats on hand and provide structured playtime.
“Julie was able to take a last minute booking, which was incredibly helpful. She was responsive and sent updates and pictures the entire stay. We would definitely book her again.”
About: Hello! I'm an active young professional who works from home and loves to get outside! I do lots of walks and try to keep to the same routine as your dog is used to. I have a sweet, quiet, friendly mid-size dog who gets along with just about anyone other than un-neutered male dogs. I've had Ace for almost 5 years and previously had a Corgi mix for almost 14 years. I often help friends by watching their pups, and have done quite a bit of dog sitting for various people I've met in the Boulder area and would be happy to provide direct references. Working from home allows me a very flexible schedule, and I can adjust to whatever schedule your pet is used to in order to help them stay comfortable. I never leave my dog home alone with another dog if we are staying at someone else's home. If I need to leave, I bring my dog with me, just for safety purposes.
“Madison took wonderful care of our dog and cat! Taking our pup on many walks and spending a lot of time playing with him. She definitely cares and we appreciate her so much! She also took great care of our home. We would definitely use her for future stays! :) thanks again Madison!”
“Karen was amazing with our 9 week old puppy (who is potty training!) and our 4 year old ridgeback who had some health issues. She send updates with pictures throughout her 5 day stay and kept me posted on how things were going. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing our pups were in great hands and being loved!! 🩵”
“We love Rikku! He brings us peace and security knowing our furbabies are well cared for while we are away. He responds quickly and sends frequent updates about them. It makes our trips so much more enjoyable not having to worry about them.”
“Harriet took great care of our 2 dogs, one of which is afraid of most strangers. She was patient and loving and communicated well while we were gone. We were grateful for her positive energy!”

Nina took on a new medicine routine for our senior pup, ensuring pain management was maintained while we traveled. She handed out candy to the trick or treaters - not in the job description but she was a good sport. Highly recommend Nina! She can read all of our dogs behaviors and takes care of him very well. Thank you Nina!
If you have the chance to book Kelsey, do it! Look no further. She is the best sitter we’ve ever had. We love that we don’t have to ask for updates or pictures from her, shes on it! Sends them without us having to ask. Your mind will be at ease wherever you are knowing that you have Kelsey watching over your babies. We will 100% book again. Thank you Kelsey!
It's hard to capture how great Weston is. He is kind and gentle and accommodating, and he's knowledgeable about dogs, asking great questions and thinking of ways to comfort the dogs that I would never have thought of. And our second was super high needs, and he was so great with him. Additionally, this was a last-minute need, and Weston dropped his plans to care for my pups so I could show up for my niece's 10th birthday party. We adore Weston.
Margaret was a phenomenal dog and house sitter! Lulu had a blast with her & pups and I got the best pics throughout my trip of my happy pup romping around with them. She also took wonderful care of my home and was flexible and very kind. I could not have asked for better and will absolutely book again when next I travel.
Claire was great! She took great care of our dogs and sent cute pictures. They seemed very content with her. Our old semi-feral kitty even came in for some pets. She changed the sheets and the house was clean which is so great after a long trip and jetlag. Definitely recommend!
Elena recently stayed at our home recently for a week with our 7 year old samoyed. This was our first time so we were nervous however she was amazing both with photos and updates. And our dog absolutely adored her. Highly recommend and will we will for sure use her again
We had a medical emergency on our trip. August was totally flexible and supportive as we made our way through the changes in schedule that occurred. It felt as if we had a member of the family helping us out as there was no question about his being there as long as necessary. He checked in often, with reassuring comments. As for our girl Daisy, he kept us informed with wonderful photos of their adventures. August is an excellent photographer! When we arrived home, Daisy was only minimally excited and went to the front door looking for August! Highly recommend! There are not enough words to explain how confident we are in August's kind and good care.

FAQs for House Sitting - Valmont
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Valmont is $61 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $86 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 7,800 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Valmont. 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 Valmont 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 Valmont 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 Valmont 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Valmont. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
