“She has a well cared for home and was meticulous about Sams care. Regular walks, pictures, etc. She gave a much higher quality care than my prior experience with different sitter and did so at a more affordable rate.”
“Mandy made me feel very comfortable about leaving our puppy! I really appreciated her sending me updates on how our puppy was doing and acclimating to her new surroundings! I would definitely use Mandy again!”
“Kyle & Desiree’s family took amazing care of my dog Brinkley on our recent 12-day trip!! He truly was treated like family there. He had lots of walks, love, & we got a daily update with several pictures each day. Amazing communication- from the initial reach out, meet and greet, drop off, and pick up. We are already booking our next stay for Brinkley with Kyle & Desiree. Thank you so much!!”
“It was such a pleasure to leave my two dogs with Laurel and her family. They got loving care as well as other small dogs and children to play with! I really appreciated the updates and photos. I would highly recommend!”
About: Have dog sat a couple of times. I don't have a dog, but willing to have one around the house for those who need a dog sitter for a few days. My wife and I have opposite work schedule, so someone is home about 85 % of the time. Would be able to have someone take dogs for walks throughout the day, or watch them in the back yard Pets will be indoor. Have a fenced back yard when needed to go outside for bathroom needs. We don't have other pets , so your pet would not take away attention from your pet
“Andrea was great and so loving to Wookie!! She even slept in the guest room as he is accustomed to sleeping with someone. She took him on multiple walks each day and sent lots of pictures. It was very obvious Wookie was being well taken care of. :) I would definitely recommend Andrea to watch your pet. She did a fantastic job!!”
“Tamie and her son took great care of Max, she provided daily updates and pics, and her pup was very sweet, mild mannered and sounds like they got along well. Communication was great and she was easy to work, will reach out to her again.”
“Janette was super helpful for taking Paisley in at the last second!! I usually only use Rover as a last resort when our regular sitter cancels, so it’s always a high stress situation. But Janette answered so quickly it was such a relief!! Drop off was super fun with her super adorable boys, and immediately Paisley was off to play with them, so I could head out without worrying about her. I loved the update and picture!! Thank you so much again for all you did!!”
“Jamie is amazing!! My partner and I were nervous about using Rover for the first time and Jamie made us feel so at ease! My dog took a liking to her right off the bat, which is uncommon for our dog!”
About: Growing up my family has always had pets, usually a mixture of dogs and cats (with the occasional hamster or lizard!). My passion for animals grows more and more every day. As an adult, my husband and I have 4 dogs ranging from tiny to large who get along great with all other animals. We also have 3 cats who are very unbothered by dogs. I try to volunteer at the local shelter twice a week but we have a beautiful baby boy so I haven’t been in a little while. Taking care of pets is truly second nature to me, I haven’t ever lived without pets and have always had a passion for them. Even as a little girl I always wanted to be involved in our pet’s care tasks. I know how stressful it can be trying to find a good place for your beloved pet to stay while you’re away, or to find help during the day while you’re at work. I hope that I can be one to relieve some of that stress and worry. Our pets are the most precious members of our family. I know that each individual dog/cat has their own needs and that different things work for different pets. I am very flexible and will always prioritize taking care of your pet the way that you do. Pet care is always part of my daily routine, I’m a stay at home mom to my beautiful baby boy, as well as to my 4 pups and 3 kitties. It is so intertwined with my life that I would make your fur baby feel right at home. I am home 24/7 so no need to worry about your pup or kitty being home alone in a strange place. I have a fully fenced yard and 4 other dogs. One of our dogs is a tiny senior (16 years old!), and the 3 other are middle aged, they love to play but aren’t too high energy if your pup doesn’t feel like playing. During feeding times I make sure that no one feels they have to compete by feeding everyone at once and facing them away from each other. I provide lots of toys and treats (with owners permission of course!) and cuddles (again with owners permission). I will be happy to communicate as much or as little as you need, if you want daily pictures, or even a few pictures a day, I am more than happy to do so! For pups that I’m just checking on, walking, or letting out to potty, all of the same things apply :)
“This family was wonderful with our dog Tango. They took lovely walks with him and kept us updated regularly. Honestly I think Tango was sorry to come home!”
“Ciara is a good person, a reliable person and a life saver. She was so kind to my stressed out family before our trip, very gentle with my dog and an excellent communicator. Thoroughly grateful for her help these last two weeks.”
“Shyla was absolutely amazing for watching our dog! She constantly gave updates with photos and videos and kept us up to date with how he was doing while we were gone. She even was so kind to watch him and take care of him after we learned he tore his ACL and had to be restricted in movement and she made sure he was taken care of! Definitely recommend her for watching and caring for your dog! ☺️”
“Patrick loves dogs and had Delilah socializing with his dogs in minutes. Every picture she was playing, with her tail up and wagging. She was a happy part of pack when we picked her up. We'll definitely use Patrick to care for Delilah again.”
“Heather was so accommodating and awesome with our dog. Even when I got the dates mixed up on our reservation, she was willing to work with me and adjust to my needs. She sent pictures everyday and reassured me that everything was going smoothly while I was away. She let my dog roam freely in the yard and house and I could tell my dog was very well taken care of and happy when I brought her home. I would highly recommend Heather to any dog parent!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Alden home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Alden.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Alden sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CO ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
