About: Animals have a special place in my heart. I've had quite a few dogs and a cat, but additionally I've been responsible for others pets while house sitting and babysitting as well. Dog parks and long walks are my favorite! Additionally, my dogs have all been trained, so I've had experience keeping up with their training and would love to help with your pets as well. I'm currently a student at CU Boulder studying Monday through Friday from 8am until 2pm, so I have plenty of time for pet care. I love getting plenty of steps in everyday so walking and hiking are activities I love to do myself - having a furry companion makes it more fun! At home my pup and I go on at least two longer walks per day, occasionally we will go to the dog park and at least once a week we will find a good hike. In the home he needs let out to the back, played with with toys and he enjoys a treat every now and then. I have experience kenneling dogs, putting together dog treat games and practicing their training with them.
“Matthew is truly the best rover cat sitter ever! I have 2 cats and one of them is super shy…well Matthew got her to love him all within only a few days! (If you have a cat you know that is quick for the shy ones haha) He sent a ton of super cute pictures while I was gone and had amazing communication! He was extremely respectful of my home and truly went above and beyond! I felt completely comfortable leaving my kitties with him and came home to 2 happy and healthy cats. I would highly recommend him to any cat or dog owners and would absolutely use him again!”
“Avery did a fantastic job taking care of our cat, Hobbes! She gave him lots of playtime and attention, which we really appreciated while we were away. She also kept us updated with tons of cute photos, which helped us feel totally at ease. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty. Highly recommend Avery!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for as long as I can remember! I had my own dog for 14 years so I understand the patience and attention pets need through each stage of their life. This reaches from a playful puppy to gentle senior care. I have also pet sat for numerous families, making sure each pet has felt safe and comfortable! I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule. I’m available for dog walks early mornings on the days Monday, Wednesday Thursday, and Friday and anytime after 5pm each day! On weekends, I am open after 4pm as I work in the mornings. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making them part of my routine! As a dog walker, I make sure each walk is safe, active, and tends to the pets needs! This ranges from a slower pace for older dogs or a more active and playful walk for younger and energetic dogs! I’m careful about following any instructions that the owner provides for me!
About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals, both my own and extended family's. My family had always trusted me to take care and walk their pets when they are out of town. I love spending time outside so I am always super excited to have a furry friend join me on a walk. I’m currently in between jobs, which means my schedule is super open — so I have plenty of time to spend with your pup! Whether your dog prefers morning strolls, midday potty breaks, or evening walks to wind down, I’m happy to work around their routine. I know every dog has their own rhythm, and I want to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Just let me know what time works best for you and your pup, and I’ll make it happen! I’m all about making sure both pets and their people feel comfortable, confident, and cared for. I take directions seriously and always follow the specific routines and preferences you share with me — whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, medication, or quirky habits that make your pet feel at home. I’m also big on communication. I’ll keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you’re never left wondering how things are going. Whether I’m in your home or on a walk with your pet, I aim to create a safe, calm, and loving environment that matches the level of care you’d give yourself.

Carrie did an excellent job caring for our two cats while we were away! She was prompt and communicative, and kept us updated on how they were doing with notes and pictures. I was able to relax knowing they were in good hands. Carrie followed their care instructions well and they were very happy and healthy when we returned. I would gladly use Carrie for cat sitting again in the future!
Kyle was extremely communicative, responsive, and followed all of our instructions to a T while taking care of our two kittens for a weekend! He was even able to give our squirmy girl ear drops by himself after she developed an ear infection the week prior. We would totally trust Kyle with taking care of our babies again!
This is the second time Jayden’s sat for me and I will definitely reach out to her in the future as well! Her communication and care for my cats gave me peace of mind while I was on vacation, and when I got home I could tell they had gotten plenty of attention and that my care instructions had been followed.
Emilie was fantastic! She was very prompt at responding and took exceptional care of our cat Matisek while we were away. Her notes were detailed and helpful and we appreciated all the time she spent making sure Matisek was well cared for in our absence. When we got back, everything at home was in tip top shape. Thanks so much, Emilie!
