“William was absolutely incredible! He is so caring and took such great care of our animals and home! You can tell he takes watching pets and homes seriously and we can’t wait to have him back to stay with our dogs and cat, they adored him! Can’t recommend William enough!”
“McKenzie was great! She took fantastic care of my two pups and sent updates throughout the day. She left our place in great shape and even came back later in the day to check on them before I got home.”
“From the beginning there was such a good communication with Zapora, she and Fiona got along very well and very quickly, she took good care of our baby Fiona when she needed it the most, we are super grateful for all the walks and patience.”
About: I have been taking care of animals for nearly 25 years, with 15 of those years in professional settings. I have three large breed dogs in my home at the moment, and grew up with 5 Rottweilers, a Jack Russell, an American bulldog, & a German Shepherd, leading me to rescuing as an adult. Along with our pack, we also did rescuing through Cody‘s club, which is a Rottweiler rescue in Pennsylvania. I have rescued and rehomed over 1000 dogs of all temperaments and feel I have the patience for any personality. I have worked in chains like Petsmart as an animal caretaker and am well-versed in many species. If you select me as a sitter, I will be happy to be the bonus best friend your animal didn’t know they needed! I am currently a stay at home, dog mom. I go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but I am available any other day of the week. I am willing to stay for a week at a time if needed, but will leave the house to go to school. All in all I have plenty of time to spend with your pet and ensure they are getting all of the love and support they need while you are out of the house. I have dogs of all ages with various needs and specialized diets. My animals adhere to a feeding schedule, so I have no problem with ensuring that your pets are fed in a timely manner according to your everyday schedule. I know pet CPR and know where the closest ER vets are in case of extreme emergencies. My oldest bully has seizures, so I am aware of how to handle medical situations and have the ability to remain calm. My oldest dog was also reactive, and I have spent the last 2 years integrating him into his pack. He was our first dog and now lives with a female Doberman and a male American bulldog who are both larger than him with absolutely no issues. I state this because I want to make you aware that I am confident in working with reactive dogs, especially fear aggression towards other dogs. Not all dogs are the same, but I have gone to classes to develop the skills to keep your reactive dog safe on walks. I have a vast background with hundreds of different dogs and want to reassure you that your pup is in the safest of hands with me.
“Sara was great! Our dog was a little nervous at first and Sara was super patient and willing to come a bit early to make sure our dog was more comfortable. She sent pictures while we were away and stayed with our dog for basically the whole day! We’re thankful we found her and would totally use her again.”
“Shannon watched our dogs for the first time last weekend on short notice and she was wonderful! Incredibly responsive, sent pictures of our doggies, and took them on walks and frequently let them out. Will definitely rely on her again soon!”
“Jennifer did a great job watching our two dogs and cat, everyone was healthy and happy when we got home. She went over and beyond to tidy up the house and make sure all was good at the end of the house-sitting stay, which we appreciated!”
“Michael was great and was very helpful in securing a short-notice sitter. He was flexible and able to adapt to my larger pack. Very communicative and was able to accommodate their various needs. I would recommend Michael to anyone looking for a sitter who may have a less typical pet situation.”
“Ellie is so sweet and my dog, Barbara, loved her so much! Barbara can be a bit shy at first but Ellen got on the ground and played with her slowly and calmly until she was comfortable during our meet and greet. Her communication, attention to detail, and love for Barbara was such a relief while away. Ill call Ellen anytime I need help with Barbara!”
“Cheryl was absolutely wonderful. She took amazing care of Elsa. They went on lots of walks, had cuddles, and we came home to a happy, happy girl. We will absolutely use her again!”
“Anna was really attentive. She provided daily updates that included pictures. She made sure that Spirit was well taken care of while I was away. I was hesitant to book her considering her previous review. But she was very matter of fact with me and why she received that review and she more than made up for it with me. I would definitely book her again for any future services.”
“Megan was fabulous!! She took great care of our pup Arya with lots of walks and cuddles. She was very responsive and kept us updated while we were out of town. She also took lots of photos and left our home spotless!! We will definitely be having her again!!”
“We love when Maddy watches our dogs!! So many pics which we love cause it makes us feel like our dogs are getting tons of attention when we’re gone. 10/10 recommend”
“Sara is an incredibly professional and caring dog sitter! She watched our dog, Waffle, in our home for the week while we were on vacation. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates. She also followed all of our directions and was more than open to doing two meet and greets prior to the boarding. You can tell she truly loves and understands dogs!”
“Emily was amazing! She made us feel comfortable by providing references before our meet and greet, and was willing to learn how to give our dog daily insulin injections with no prior training. She sent us pics and kept us updated the whole time, and when we missed our flight she was flexible and stayed for two additional nights! Would highly recommend her!”
“Seth is AMAZING!!! He went over and above with care for our two dogs ( one is a 6 mo. old puppy- Whew!), cat, and fish! He was in consistent communication with us, sending photos, even washing dishes and the windows while house sitting!! We already consider him one of the family, and will definitely reach out to him in the future!”
About: I am a huge fan of positive reinforcement training and have spent the last 10 years caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages; including anxious and reactive dogs who need a little bit of extra love and patience. I’m currently a 33 year old graduate student at CU Boulder who currently does not own a dog; so I would love to be given the opportunity to love on and snuggle yours! I love to play with, care for, and love on any and all dogs no matter their shape, size, age, or needs. I have experience with administering topical medications, pills, and injections and am willing and able to go for runs, rides, walks, or playtimes. Call me if you want a reliable and dependable adult with personal transportation who is always up for a challenge or just low key hang outs! I’m also lgbtqia+ friendly and get along with people and dogs of all ages. I currently work as a bike mechanic part time in Boulder Colorado from 10-6 most days of the week. I can carve out mornings from 7-9am and evenings after 7pm in Golden or Boulder with additional short opportunities for check ins or 30 minute walks mid day in Boulder. My experience with making sure dogs needs are met in a safe and comfortable way comes from the training methods of positive reinforcement. I have no problem creating structures, setting boundaries, or respecting your routines and structures. Positive reinforcement training has been wonderful (albeit a longer process sometimes) for the dogs I have cared for in supporting their mental and emotional health. I do not currently watch dogs in my own home but am very comfortable with house/dog sitting in yours or taking your furry friend to the trails, streets, or their favorite places.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Pleasant View
Finely did a truly exceptional job watching Poptart! We couldn't be happier and will 100% have them back to pup-sit again! Poptart is an anxious pup, but Finley made her feel safe and calm. They sent lots of pictures and updates, and it was very clear that Poptart was living her best life. If you have an anxious/needy pet, I would strongly recommend Finley! Besides making Poptart feel safe, Finley left our place very clean, followed all our directions, and sent us plenty of updates. We got some AMAZING photos too. Like, truly professional level, top-tier photo content. It was awesome. Overall, Finley was great. We had a great experience. 10/10. Would give more stars if I could.
Melissa was a great pet sitter! She stayed at our house with JJ (our large German Shepherd mix pup) while we were traveling, and gave him lots of love and attention. She was timely, communicated well, was flexible with our schedule, sent cute pictures and updates each day, and went above and beyond to accommodate a short-notice stay. She left the house clean and neat. We will be glad to book her again if she is available when we are traveling.
Sondra is fantastic! This is the 2nd time Sondra has petsit for us. This time with our 4.5 month old puppy, and she was patient with him when he was a little nervous about having a new person in the house. We highly recommend Sondra to take excellent care of dogs of all ages, puppy to senior.
We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Lauren! He took incredible care of our pets, keeping them happy, comfortable, and well-loved while we were away. On top of that, we came home to a spotlessly clean house. His communication was top-notch, giving us complete peace of mind. We will definitely be booking Lauren again!
Sydney is a gem. She came through last minute when another Rover sitter cancelled. She took great care of my very energetic girls and gave them lots of snuggles. The house looked amazing when I got home. I am so grateful that I found a new reliable human for my ridgebacks.
Jared was wonderful! He was very communicative and reliable. The dogs loved him! He went above and beyond- vacuuming, picking up the yard, putting the sheets in the washing machine, medicating our dog, taking out the trash bins, and starting the dishwasher. We already want to book him again!
Morgan stayed with our elderly dog for 10 days and did an amazing job. From the start, when were evaluating options, Morgan was highly responsive and answered all our questions. She offered to do a meet and greet with us and our dog Timmy before we finalized anything. During the stay, she provided daily updates and pictures so we knew Timmy was being loved and cared for. When we returned home, Timmy looked great and our house was in immaculate condition. We will be using Morgan again for our next trip, and would recommend her without hesitation.

The average cost of House Sitting in West Pleasant View is $52 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $83 per night.

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 West Pleasant View 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 West Pleasant View 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 West Pleasant View 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.
