“Beverly took care of my two boys and was amazing. The pups are happy and amazing communication throughout! Thank you Beverly, and I look forward to you watching my pups in the future!”
“Alison was a fantastic pet sitter! We have two big dogs and three cats that are used to having people around all the time, and she fit right into the mold and took excellent care of them - providing plenty of play time, exercise, and snuggles. Alison was super communicative and shared great updates and pictures, and she also took great care of our home while we were away. I would (and already have!) absolutely book Alison again in the future!”
“Nicole is simply the best! If I could book her for every single pet sitting trip I would! I know when she’s there I have nothing to worry about! I get updates and pictures frequently. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter than her.”
“Cambridge is absolute blessing. She was great at communicating with me the entire time she stayed. She was always punctual and cleaned up too. What I liked the most about her was how caring of person she was with my fur babies. She even sent me pictures of them which I was grateful to have.”
About: I've been around cats my entire life! I've helped raised litters and even have 2 boys myself! I hope to one day work with cats professionally one day and I thought this would be good way to get myself out there Monday through Fridays I will been in school till 12 am. I have a part-time job with it but with a mostly fixed schedule. My cats are not allowed outside and I have both of them chipped, I do yearly vaccine appointments with my main vet. I've installed cats shelves and multiple cat tree for them also. I've also trained one to be harness trained( my other is to anxious of loud noise to be walked currently. )
“Ryleigh is fantastic! We highly recommend her! Both dogs love her! she’s prompt, made sure the dogs always had fresh water, kept their area clean, and sent updates (with pictures). We will definitely be using her services again, thank you😁”
“Amelia was amazing. I have 3 dogs and one of them is skittish but Amelia was excellent with her, my dog had an accident in the house and Amelia cleaned it thoroughly. Thank you.”
About: I've lived on a farm my whole life along with my grandmother being a animal rehaber. I have also owned dogs all my life ,I currently have 3 of my own who I love dearly! I know how to give meds and I am amazing at following any schedule you have for your furbaby. I can do daily or weekly ,I am open all day . The only times I may not be is if something comes up personally or to spend time and of course take care of my own furbabies! I give them the best care possible I love to send clients photos or videos of me taking care of their furry companion or playing with them. I also am very respectful to their home if they have codes to get in keep it all confidential!
“We greatly appreciated how well Lily took care of our Chex!! She communicated and sent pics regularly which put our minds at ease. And it’s clear Chex liked her and was comfortable as she clearly ate while we were gone (it’s not uncommon for us to come back with a skinny girl from refusing to eat). Also, Lily left our house clean which was greatly appreciated!! We will definitely book with Lily again!”
“Not only did Scarlett watch our dogs in our own home, she left the place immaculate and updated us on everything! My husband and I have two fairly anxious labs, and they seem very happy even though we were gone! I would trust her for all your pet needs.”
“We were so pleased with Joshua. He took plenty of pictures that made us feel comforted while he looked after our fur babies. Both our babies are rescues and are very skittish around new comers, the moment Joshua came, our dogs went right up to him and allowed him to give loves, we knew right then that he would be caring for them. He was respectful and responsible during his stay. We highly recommend him to anyone !!!”
“Maria is fantastic! We just moved to Colorado Springs last week and were eager to find someone we can trust and rely on to sit our pups while we are away and we found our person in Maria. 😃 She is communicative, flexible, tidy and the dogs just love her. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving sitter for their pets!”
“Kimberly was very communicative throughout my time away and seemed great with the animals! I came back and she had cleaned the litter box without asking and all 4 animals were very happy and well taken care of!”
“Edyn was great and my Bulldog loved her and her Cowbell. She did a wonderful job and is coming back tomorrow for a week. We are so happy with her warmth and care for our Bulldog and home. Thank you so much Edyn!! :)”
“Rachel was absolutely amazing! She took wonderful care of our dog over the weekend and also did an excellent job caring for our home. When our flight was canceled and we needed her to stay an extra day, she was incredibly flexible and accommodating. Knowing our dog and house were in such capable hands gave us tremendous peace of mind during a stressful travel situation. Rachel was reliable, communicative, and truly went above and beyond. We highly recommend her and would gladly have her care for our dog and home again!”
“My husband and I just got back from a trip to Germany, and since we’re still pretty new to the Colorado Springs area, we were a little nervous about leaving our dogs with someone new. We found Kaitlyn on Rover, and honestly, she was great! She took care of our two dogs for a whole week and made the whole experience really easy for us. She sent regular updates and lots of pictures, which we really appreciated. It made us feel so much better being away and knowing they were doing well. We’re really glad we found her and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter! 🐾”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Wigwam on Rover is $34.41 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,152 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wigwam. 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 Wigwam 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 Wigwam 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 Wigwam 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wigwam. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
