About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, chickens, and bunnies for the past ten years! I have experiencing taking care of animals while house sitting for long stretches of time. I love getting outside, walking, and running with dogs! I am reliable, gentle, and love getting to share new connections with animals. It would be so great to take care of your animal babies! I'm currently in grad school but have significant room for walking, dropping in, and overnight stays. My schedule is mostly busy during the days on Tuesday and Thursday, but I have time in the morning, evening, and afternoons. I stick to what each owner/parent prefers. As for my dog, he is really good about recall so we are able to let him run around the backyard without fencing. When we walk on trail he is mostly on leash unless we are in the backcountry. Again, I stick to what each owner prefers for their animal baby!
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with dogs, having grown up with them since birth. I’ve also frequently pet-sat for neighbors and friends, handling everything from walks to feeding and cleaning up. I love dogs so much and walk a lot every day and I would love to have a dog to walk as well! I am a senior at San Diego State and am a full-time student but I only go to campus Monday Wednesday and Friday! I have lots of free time in the mornings and late afternoons! When caring for a dog in a client's home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment. I maintain a routine that the dog is familiar with, ensuring their surroundings feel secure and stress-free. I follow any specific care instructions provided by the owner, keeping their home clean and the pet well-fed, exercised, and content. My goal is to create a great experience for both the dog and their owner, providing peace of mind that their pet is in good hands.
“I’d never used the app before but loved how easy it was for Sam to keep me updated both times he visited to walk our dog. Our dog is an old boy and can be a little defensive at times, and pretty slow-moving, but Sam was super patient with him. Sam walked him for a full 30 minutes and from what I can tell, he just let our dog take it slow, sniffing (and peeing on) all the things along the way, which is his absolute favorite thing to do. I’d recommend Sam for sure, and will ask him back if we ever need help with our pets again!”

“My dog is so happy and healthy when I get home. Kristen takes great care and sends feedback and photos, so I know my pup is doing well when I’m gone for the day.”


About: I’ve been caring for pets my entire life, from volunteering at animal shelters to eventually managing one, I have such a passion for animal wellness. If you are visiting Boulder and need day care for your dog while you take on a challenging hike, attend an event or concert, I’m your pets home-away-from-home. I can give meds to pets, care for any special needs they have and work with high energy or “difficult” pets. I love them all, from hyper mouthy puppies to needy seniors! I’m currently a data scientist exploring new employment opportunities with an incredible passion for pets. I’ve previously managed an Animal Shelter and trained volunteers on both feline and canine behavior. I am a foster for Longmont Humane society and am a rescue mom to three cats and two dogs. I have a half acre privacy fenced backyard for pets that visit. I have a large SUV for transporting pets that want an adventure or need daycare pet sitting.
“Joanie is seriously the best. She's extremely patient with our reactive fella, Anubis. With her help, he's gaining confidence trusting strangers and trying new things. She's definitely our dog sitter/walker of choice here in town.”

“Abbi is great! She has been suoer helpful walking our dog and our friends dog. Communication is quick and clear, scheduling is easy, and she is super careful with her attention to detail! You’re pet will be in great hands with Abbi.”


About: I am a life long animal lover. I have experience with small dogs, large dogs, cats, ferrets and birds. I own a mini dachshund myself and love handling small dogs. I am also always happy to take your large dog on runs to the park, and throw a ball to their hearts content. I can accommodate any special needs a pet might have, like medication, mobility issues, and old age. I am currently between jobs for the summer and will be available almost every day, all hours of the day for your pet or pets. Client trust and privacy is very important to me. I follow home care instructions very carefully. I double check all doors meant to be locked are before leaving. I put all pet items back into their place, keep things clean, and do not disturb anything.
About: I was absolutely obsessed with my late bulldog and toy poodle. Raising them and spending time with them each day was so much fun and fulfilling. I have been dog sitting, cat sitting and house sitting since I was 12. All through high school and both of my college degrees I continued to dog sit. I'd feel lucky to be trusted to hang out with yours! I am extremely active and love when I can exercise with a pup. Hike? Neighborhood walk? Dog park? Sounds great! I work from home with great flexibility and have holidays off of work since I work in education. Let me know what type of schedule suits your fur baby best! I have a large backyard and a deck. Let me know how your dog best is accommodated. I've had dogs who needed to be in their crated in a new environment and others who wanted to sleep in my room or the couch. However is totally fine with me!
About: I have been sitting through Rover since 2021 and have truly enjoyed spending time with so many pets! I've sat big dogs, little dogs, cats, fish, and sugar gliders! I feel that through Rover I have excelled in adapting quickly to a variety of pet's needs. I’m currently living in the Boulder/Longmont Colorado area and am open to book sits around the area. I just moved here from Orlando Florida. When I lived in Orlando, if I had spare time, I liked to drive rescue transports for ORCA, Greyhounds in Motion, and Orlando Pet Alliance. If you have suggestions of rescue transports I can drive for in the northwest Denver area please let me know! My current work schedule is fully open while I secure a new job in the area, once I officially start my new job I will add in my new schedule, but the typical schedule for my line of work is M-F 8am-5pm. I’ll have studying to do in the evenings and on the weekends so your pets can keep me company while I do schoolwork. I'm good at adapting to you and your pet's needs! I'll give them love, care, and attention if they want it, but will respect them if they prefer not to be pet (we all know those cats 😄)
About: I love spending time with animals! I've been in the farm & ranch world for over 15 years and have experience working with dogs, cats, cows, goats, horses, chickens, etc. Animals bring me joy & I love learning from them. I spend most of my free time with my 9 year old rescue dog Luna where we explore the beauty around us. I am happy to lend a hand and help out if you feel like its a compatible fit. I am very responsible, dedicated and genuinely enjoy the companionship of animals. I can offer photos of your dog(s), tons of love, kindness and alot of attention. I really want to ensure that your needs are met and that you feel supported and at ease while away at work, a night out or vacation. I live on a ranch with fenced in pastures & have a gate that closes to main road. I am able to ensure a secure place.
About: Hi there! All my life I have been an animal lover and for the last 8 years I have raised my own dog, and taken care of other dogs for families I used to babysit for. I can fit in any lifestyle your pet has, whether they are active or a stay-at-home. I can fit any accommodation as I work from home, love to exercise (so your dog would get plenty of it, if need be), and I'm incredibly flexible and will be normally free to help you more than not. At the same time, I raised my dog since she was a puppy so I do have experience with younger, more energetic dogs and overall I would simply love to help and treat your dogs like family. I hope we can talk soon! I'm super flexible and work from home at the moment so I basically can take care of your dogs whenever you may need it. I will certainly be more free for your dog rather than not! I will care for your pet in your home however you see fit. I do what is asked and can fit any accommodation whether your dog has a lot of needs, or simply needs a walk and some playtime. I'm happy to help however it may be!
“Bri is amazing! Our Australian Shepherd and Havanese Mix Rescue have grown to love her. Our rescue tends to be a bit hard to connect with, but Bri has been wonderful, taking the time and having the patience to make him feel safe. It truly is wonderful to have someone that cares for our pups like we do!”

About: I have over 14 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Growing up in a family that currently owns 9 dogs across 6 different breeds, I am deeply familiar with diverse temperaments—from high-energy pups to those who just want a quiet snuggle. Managing a multi-dog environment has taught me how to stay attentive to each animal's unique needs, dietary requirements, and personality. Whether your pet needs a long walk or some extra patient companionship, I treat every dog with the same care and dedication I give my own family’s pack. I currently have full-time availability, which means your pups will be my primary focus throughout the day. I am always free to provide walks, playtime, and companionship whenever they need it. My flexible schedule allows me to easily accommodate last-minute requests and provide consistent, reliable care for your pets. I love getting to know how your dog thinks so that I can take better care of them. I am always attentive to your dog's needs and body language to ensure they stay safe, happy, and comfortable while in my care. I have experience with everything from small lap dogs to large, high-energy breeds, so I am happy to welcome any well-behaved pup into my home.
About: I have a medium-large dog at home (around 70 pounds). I feel comfortable walking dogs of any size as far as they like. I have a grassy area outside my apartment that I can take your dog to whenever needed. I am available to dog sit over night on Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday nights. I’m available throughout the day on weekends and Thursdays. I’m used to taking care of a dog (feeding, walking, playing, grooming), and I’d love to be able to again. The only restriction I have is my apartment complex’s rule go no pit bulls, german shepherds, or siberian huskys. I trained my dog at home from when she was a puppy, and she turned into an extremely friendly dog. I’d be happy take care of your puppy and help it learn how to interact with people.

About: I love dogs (and cats!) of all personalities and especially love being active with them, such as going on hikes or jogs, playing fetch, or simply hanging out at the park. I love getting to know each animal's unique personality and learning what makes them them! I am available outside of the following hours: 2-4:30pm Monday-Friday, 5:30-7pm Mondays and Thursdays, and 4-6pm on Wednesdays. Other than these times, I am free to be booked! I have a large, fenced in yard with no other pets, which is great if your pet has trouble around other animals. I also live very close to North Boulder park! And when I am caring for your animal at your home, I am mindful of private spaces and boundaries, and I always make sure to entirely clean up after myself.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Altona. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Altona.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Altona. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
