About: As a pet sitter, my dedication to providing personalized care and attention to each furry friend sets me apart. I prioritize building strong bonds with pets, ensuring their comfort and happiness while their owners are away. With a keen eye for detail and a genuine love for animals, I tailor my services to meet the unique needs of every pet, creating a safe and loving environment that owners can trust. I am currently in high school so i’ll have lots of time for the pups! I can walk and boarding on weekdays anytime after 4 pm and on weekends it will truly depend on the basketball schedule but I’ll be able to do whatever is needed anytime after 9 am. At home, I pamper my pets with love, playtime, and regular walks. As a professional, I offer reliable pet sitting, dog walking, and personalized care for clients' furry companions.
“Amazing care and service! This was our second time booking with Diego and he is fantastic. Our cat loves spending time with him and he takes great care while we are away. We will continue to book with Diego!”
“Brae was super communicative and proactive. My cats look similar and she was the first sitter to immediately see the difference and treat them like the individuals they are. She clearly cared for my kitties and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her hands”
About: I love to walk and run with dogs! I also like hosting or checking in on cats! I am great at connecting with animals and making sure that their needs are being met. I have spent most of my life around animals and recently lost my cat. I am hoping to share some love with your pet! I work full time and I am available on weekends to host dogs. Cats I can host any time and play after work! I'm free in the evenings for walks and check ins. I have an apartment that is clean and safe for pets. I do not have a yard, but my place is set up for cats with a scratching post and toys!
“Sara is so great with my pup. She communicates well and follows the care instructions. I love the pictures, too. I know he is cared for while I work long hours. I would highly recommend Sara to anyone.”
“Sheryl took great care of our dog and handle all of his quirks really well :) She made sure he had plenty of walks and was entertained while we were out of town. We plan to use Sheryl again in the future.”

About: Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, I’m happy to provide the care they need! I understand that every pet is different, so I always do my best to follow their routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away 🫶 I work a hybrid schedule and typically finish work around 5:00 p.m. I have flexibility during my lunch break to stop by for walks or potty breaks on workdays. My evenings and early morning are open for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins, and I have additional availability on weekends. I do my best to be flexible and work with each pet owner’s schedule whenever possible. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before providing care. I’ll make sure they have fresh water, meals on schedule, plenty of exercise, playtime, and lots of attention! I’m aware of surroundings and my biggest priority is keeping them safe.
“Greg and Hilary are fantastic pet sitters! From the very first meeting, they were incredibly patient and kind — my 11-year-old wanted to give them the full rundown of instructions, and they listened attentively to every detail without rushing her at all. It clearly meant a lot to her that Greg and Hilary took it so seriously. They were flexible and accommodating throughout the whole process, and kept us updated with photos and check-ins while we were away. We will absolutely be booking with him again!”
“Grace was absolutely wonderful with my cat, Bowie! She was incredibly affectionate and attentive, making sure he felt loved and comfortable the entire time I was away. Grace did such a fantastic job that I could travel with total peace of mind. I highly recommend her!”
About: As a nurse, I've dedicated my career to providing trustworthy and compassionate care. I will ensure that your furry loved ones receive that same care. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes - I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, small breeds, medium breeds, and large breeds. I have previous experience working at a dog day care while completing my nursing courses. Duties included administering medications, constant monitoring of dog behavior to ensure safety amongst large crowds of dogs, implementation of temperament testing, introducing new dogs to the pack, grooming services, and adherence to individualized training plans. I work M-F but have availability in the afternoons for dog walking or drop ins. My weekends are usually wide open for multiple drop ins, walks, or house sitting. I bring a unique level of precision, patience, and professional care to your home. I understand that your pets are family, and I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine above all else.
“Do yourself a favor and book Cassie. She is AMAZING with our three cats and sent us so many pictures and videos — it put huge smiles on our faces every day we were away!”
“Thank you so much again. I really appreciate that you got the bun some carrots and pee pads when we ran out! It also was really cool of you to drop in twice. We always hate leaving our animals, but I felt they were very well taken of.”
“Luigi loved his time with Abigail!! She was so kind and communicative every step of the way. I really appreciated her extra love and care for him. Cannot say enough good things!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. We’ve had dogs and my neighbors have always trusted me to watch their pets. Recently, I have hosted foster dogs, but at this moment I do not have any animals in the house and would love to host yours! I am a single female who is very active and would love to care for your pet as I would my own while you are away. I have a new home with a fully fenced in large backyard and work from home, which gives me the ability to play, cuddle, and give plenty of exercise! I work full time from home. My job from home gives me flexibility to care for your pet as needed and take them to the park over lunch breaks. I have a fully fenced in large backyard and a large park across the street.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wheat Ridge
Shannon did a wonderful job watching our two big pups while we were away! She gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing they were in very caring & capable hands. She went above & beyond for us in more ways than one, and was such a great communicator throughout. Thank you so much Shannon!
We have been trusting Bethany to take great care of our fur babies for over 3 years and she has always done such a great job! Our dog and cats love her, and she is very accommodating with their special dietary needs. She is a lifesaver every time we need to head out of town!!
Anna was great with my high energy and nervous shepherd mix. He can bark and jump on new people but Anna was super receptive to my instructions to prevent this and was able to play with him, give him water, treats, and a potty break within 30 minutes. She was very responsive to my messages as well. She has lots of experience with foster dogs which is great for my high maintenance big boy.
Debra was great. Lots of communication and updates during the drop in. It’s always scary for me to leave my baby (yes, crazy dog mom status) with someone, but Debra made me feel at ease. We will definitely be using her again when I get over my fear of boarding.
Marissa has been my pups’ go-to sitter for several months now. She is incredibly attentive and they just love her - they are SO happy during her visits and it’s clear in the photos and vids she shares. Recently, one of my dogs needed administration of some meds as well as some extra attention with a cone of shame. Marissa handled everything wonderfully and I felt good knowing he was in trusted hands. BOOK HER, if you can!
Haley is helping us with our people nervous/shy pup and she is great! It is clear she understands dog body language and will meet the dog where they are at. Our pup, Finn, adjusted really well to Haley at our first meet n greet. Would highly recommend to anyone with a dog that needs a bit of extra care.
Hannah was wonderful with our three dogs over the weekend, and I couldn’t recommend her more! She kept us updated consistently and sent lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. One of our dogs, can definitely be a bit of a handful and doesn’t always warm up to people right away, but he absolutely adored Hannah. It was so clear that she was patient, attentive, and genuinely caring with all of them. We came home to three happy, well-cared-for pups and will happily book with her again!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Wheat Ridge 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.
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 Wheat Ridge 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Wheat Ridge with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
