“Kaitlin was fantastic! Very helpful, accommodating and timely with communication. She sent several photos of my dog while he was staying with her. Cannot thank you enough for caring for my dog, I know he was in good hands.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Service and Exceptional Care! I cannot say enough wonderful things about the love and care they showed my dog, Captain! From the very beginning, they went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. What impressed me the most was the excellent communication. They kept in constant contact with me, sending pictures and updates, which gave me such peace of mind knowing Captain was in loving hands. They even spoiled him with dog toys, which was such a thoughtful and sweet gesture! It’s clear that they genuinely love animals and treat them like family rather than just another pet. Captain came home clean, happy, and loved! I truly appreciate the kindness, attention, and extra effort they put into caring for him. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for someone who will treat their furry family member with genuine love and care. We will definitely be returning! ❤️🐾”
“Felt secure in leaving our pup with these folks. They are very caring of your animals and take them on good walks and adventures. Pictures included. They also are very capable and knowledgeable. And we would without a doubt use them again for future boardings.”
“We needed someone to keep our dog for the night while we went to a concert in Vail. Lola was so happy at Erin’s with both of her pups, lots of walks, a big fenced yard, and another rover pup to play with. We are so thankful and would absolutely use Erin to watch Lola again in the future.”
“Jess was a great dog-sitter for us. This was our first time using Rover.com and we were very satisfied with the care and updates provided by Jess while on vacation. She is highly recommended.”
“Monica was absolutely exceptional! She took such wonderful care of our dog, Bea, and treated her like one of her own. Every day she took Bea to the lake to play fetch, which was the highlight of her day, and it was clear she received so much love, attention, and exercise. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would gladly book Monica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for outstanding care.”
“Ducky had the best overnight stay! You could tell she felt right at home — she came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Thank you for taking such good care of our girl. I would definitely recommend Carolina to others!”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. What sets me apart is the combination of patience, reliability, and genuine love I bring to every pet I care for. I treat each dog like part of my family and focus on creating a safe, calm, and fun environment while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate feeding times, walks, play sessions, potty breaks, and any special care instructions your pet may need. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while in my care. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, daily walks, or overnight care, I am committed to keeping your pet happy, comfortable, and following their usual routine as closely as possible. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I make sure they are in a clean, secure, and stress-free environment. I carefully follow each pet owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and daily routines to help pets feel comfortable and maintain consistency. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, needs, and preferences, ensuring they receive the appropriate level of attention, exercise, and affection. During walks, I always use secure leashes and remain attentive to my surroundings. In a client's home, I treat their space with respect and make sure their pet receives loving, reliable care while they are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I have had animals my whole life. I have worked in pet sitting and will always treat your furry baby as I treat my own. The best way only. I work 3 days a week so have plenty time on my hands to help with pet sitting, walking and caring for your furry babies. I live in a pet friendly 2 bedroom condo. I have a cat of my own, who absolutely orders other dogs and cats. We have a very loving home.
“We highly recommend Nevada for all of your pet care needs! She is experienced, knowledgeable, dependable and flexible. Our dog Birdie is shy with strangers, but Nevada was patient and attentive and made her feel right at home. Her sweet dog Duke is a gentle soul and was very accepting of Birdie in his space. Nevada will treat your pet like her own, providing lots of love and exercise! Birdie always comes home happy and smiling!”
“Lexi was such a great sitter for our two dogs! Her two dogs were super sweet and friendly too. She was great from the very first second we reached out to her. She was so flexible, considering our last minute request for her to watch our dogs. Our dogs came out from the stay at her house looking good and happy. You can tell that she is a huge animal lover. Your pupps will always be in good hands with her! Her home is also so cozy and safe for dogs. Can't recommend Lexi enough, we really appreciated everything!”
About: I’ve grown up always having large dogs, volunteered at my local humane society, and have lots of experience dogsitting for friends and family. Dogs bring me so much joy and I’d be happy to share my time with yours! I have a flexible schedule which allows me to walk/care for dogs in the area! I never over-schedule myself so I’m very reliable and responsible! Dogs will have plenty of activity (if okay), will be loved on and pampered, and will not be left alone for more than 2 hours.
About: What sets me apart is the personalized attention, patience, and genuine care I provide to every dog—especially puppies. 🐾 I understand that puppies need extra patience, supervision, playtime, and consistency while they learn and grow. I take the time to follow their routines, provide plenty of love and attention, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Pet care is ideal for me, as I am looking for a flexible way to work while doing something I truly enjoy. I love animals and would be delighted to dedicate my time to looking after dogs and ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My apartment is small, but it offers a clean, quiet, and comfortable environment where your pet can feel safe and right at home. 🐶❤️ I maintain a calm, safe space with plenty of personalized attention, ensuring that every pet is supervised and well cared for throughout their stay. I understand that every pet has different needs, routines, and personalities, so I tailor my care to each one.
About: Hi, I’m Maya! I’m a huge animal lover and will be sure to take amazing care of your babies and give them lots of love! I currently work a 9 to 5 but am remote 2 days a week and can bring dogs into my office any day of the week.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
97% of sitters in Basalt can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Basalt 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 Basalt.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Basalt. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
You and your Basalt 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
