“Mitzi and Klifton were the best hosts we could have imagined for our golden retriever Sydney! They took amazing care of her and sent us tons of photos and updates every day. We would re book with them in a heartbeat and hope to do so again very soon!!”
“Tom was great with Jake. Jake is 13 years old with bad eyesight and hearing and really bad back legs. Tom was great taking care of Jake’s needs. We had lots of pictures with Jack looking like he owned the place. We’ll definitely use him again. Tracy”
“Kelly, her husband, and their dog Milo took great care of our dog Jake while we were gone for eight days. They did everything possible to make Jake feel comfortable (he is a nervous dog) and they treated him like family. I’m so thankful for their kindness and care.”
“Tabea took such great care of my dog while I was out of town and sent me daily updates and pictures. He settled right in like he was part of the family and came home happy and tired! I’ll definitely be bringing him back for more stays!”
“Megan and family were wonderful for Vanna. She’s an older girl and needs a little patience sometimes but Megan took it all in stride. Vanna came home happy and healthy after 2 weeks. She got lots of attention, walks and playtime with the kiddos!”
“We had a great experience with Alex. He is very kind and is a dog lover. He was great with communication and drop off pickup and being flexible with our times. He let us enjoy our trip but sent a few messages and took amazing photos of our dog Chip. He was thoughtful and gave us some prints and a magnet of his photography of our cutie pup Chip. We will definitely be using Alex again. Thank you!”
“Steve and Susan took great care of my pup, Luna. They have a big, beautiful backyard, but Luna is hard to please in that she doesn't play with toys, chase a ball, or run around the yard to burn energy. She absolutely lives for walks in the neighborhood--it's her most favorite thing in the world. They were accommodating and took her out on walks every day (even in bad weather a couple of those days!). All in all, a great first experience with Rover.”
“They are the best! Super flexible, great communication, and they take great care of my dog who can be a handful. My dog gets super excited to stay with them!”
“Caitlin was amazing. Took us as a last min client/booking. Worked with us to do a meet and greet quickly and took the best care of my dog. She provided updates and it was amazing not having to worry while I was away.”
“Kristy really stayed in contact while I was out of town! She has a great backyard and Edith seemed really happy! I would absolutely use her and her family again!”
“Irina and Aaron were great at making my small dog feel welcome with some larger dogs which can sometimes intimidate her. Common was great also! Next time we’ll try their grooming service also!”
“Ashley made me feel totally at ease while I was away from my dog. Her and her daughter gave my dog tons of quality time outside in their lovely fenced-in backyard. I am so glad I found Ashley so that I can use her services again in the future!”
“We were really nervous to use Rover for the first time, but Corey was amazing with our dog. We got pictures and updates daily and our dog came back happy and sleepy! Thank you Corey!”
“We have used a couple different dog sitters over the years, but Kimberly is far and away the best. Our dog Gypsy can be sensitive to change and easily stressed out, but Kimberly was so good with her and making sure she felt comfortable. Gypsy got a ton of daily exercise and cuddles and came home a very happy pup. Kimberly also knew we were a little nervous about leaving Gypsy and texted twice daily with pictures or videos and updates every day of our trip. It was such a relief knowing that our dog was in great hands and was very well taken care of during our absence. We will absolutely use Kimberly again and can’t recommend her enough.”

I had a last minute need to get Rambo a rover while me and my partner were on a trip. And Sehwa and Adam were so kind to accept our request! They gave Rambo so much attention and walks. Sent me so many pictures so I know Rambo was having a great time. Thank you so much again for saving us last minute and giving Rambo the attention he needed!
Lucas took great care of Lulu and Jerry and sent lots of fun updates. They both seemed very comfortable with him and I appreciated that he took the time to get to know each of their quirks and unique needs, especially with walks. We would absolutely rebook with him!
Ella was amazing with our 8 month old puppy this weekend! We felt super secure in leaving Wally with her due to her excellent communication and super kind demeanor. The updates and photos we got throughout our trip were so lovely to receive and we could tell when we picked him up that he felt super comfortable and at home with her 🥰 Thank you so much, we will definitely be booking again for our next time away!
Mikaela took wonderful care of my elder boy and shared adorable photos that seemed to highlight well the great time he had with her and her animal companions. He cozily and warmly made some new friends, and I’m excited to have a lovely human and new buddies for him to go see again the next time I need support for him. Thank you so much!
Jamie and Chris go above and beyond every time my sweet Shadow gets to hang out with them!! I don’t have any doubts or worries when I leave Shadow with them, the only worry would be that Shadow has more fun with them than me 😂 They were super accommodating when we dealt with a nightmare of a delayed return flight home. Shadow will be back soon :)
Jeff was great to work with! He took such good care of our elderly dog and was willing to troubleshoot ways to help keep our dog’s appetite consistent, which has been an issue in the past. He was also a huge help when our trip got delayed by a day and was willing to watch our pup an extra day with little notice!

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 Applewood home-away-from-home, 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 Applewood.
<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 Applewood 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 , 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 .
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.
