“We could not have been any happier with our decision to book Mychaela! She was incredibly responsive and took the best care of our Frenchie (Gooch) while we were away on a cruise for a 10 days. She sent a variety of pics throughout our trip and even let him snuggle in the bed - he was a very happy boy and well taken care of. I couldn’t recommend her anymore and she will most definitely be our new go-to the next time we need a pet sitter. Thank you so much, Mychaela!”
“Ellyn was amazing! She took care of our dog during our wedding week and was able to accomodate our special requests with no questions asked. Our dog (Denver) was in our ceremony so she made sure he was nice and tired and CLEAN before the big day. She treated him like her own and I could tell how much fun and love Denver received while in her care. I will be booking again next time Denver needs special care!”
“10 starts to Rohin for his setup for the dogs, his communication and ease with bonus photos while away and his professionalism of care for my dog. My dog loves going, can see happy going in, happy upon my arrival and happy and no different when we get back from a Rohin stay over. He is a blessing to us dog lovers. Thank you Rohin, a professional and good man with top 10 stars caring for my dog. I have booked in the past and will always book with him. I trust him 100% and recommend him 100%. I am 60 years old, a mother, a grandmother and love my dog too. This is the place I wish everyone could have if they need to leave their dog. It helps you travel at ease and return at ease as I see how my dog reacts upon my drop off and pickups and his behavior at home. He is the same and so happy. He loves to play with dogs and be outside as much as possible but also needs rest and a safe place inside too. He provides it all and easy to deal with the separation for me and my dog. Not easy to just leave your dog and he makes it the easiest and worry free as it could be. And what a great person Rohin is to speak with and arrange. He listens to details about my dog, what my concerns are, his special needs and etc. I know he cares for my dog like it is his dog. How blessed and appreciative I am!!! 1000% Thank you Rohin!!!

“Claudia was great with my cat who stayed in her home for 5 days. He needs regular medicine of two types and Claudia was great about specific instructions while also giving him the attention he needs. I also appreciated the regular photos she sent me. My mind was at ease knowing my cat was in good hands. I would definitely have Claudia help me out again and definitely recommend her as a sitter!”
“Sandra was amazing with our high energy golden! We loved receiving pictures of our pup all weekend. We will definitely book with Sandra next time we need a Rover. She’s the best!”
“Sommer was fantastic. She was extremely communicative throughout the sit, sending pictures and updates frequently. My dog is literally sitting at the door, waiting for her to come back.”
“Della and her daughter took such good care of Puck on this trial overnight with them! Della was very caring and responsive. She kept us up-to-date with pictures and status of how he was doing. Her daughter did a wonderful job playing with him and made sure he had a good first experience with a child. Their set-up allowed for outside time and indoor cuddles - two of his favorites. He came home content and tired. Thank you!”
“Devin was so wonderful!! He took wonderful care of our pup. Our dog can be leash reactive and has to take medication 2 a day and Devin handled him with such ease! Will definitely book again!”
“Chelsea is a great dog sitter and lives right beside open space and trails where the dogs can get outside and run. She is kind, conscientious and has her own sweet pup who joins the fun. I give her the highest recommendations and will use her agin for sure.”
“While I was on vacation overseas Margaret Took such a good of my care of my dog Oso. She took him for walks, she played with him, and care of all his needs. I did not have to worry about him at all. Margaret sent me pics and videos of Oso everyday showing me how he was doing and how he enjoys butt scratches lol. I am glad I found her and I definitely will be my first choice next time.”
“Maggie was amazing and treated my pup Paisley like a princess during her stay. I got frequent updates and Maggie was very responsive. I’ll definitely book with her again in the future!”
About: I have adored animals my entire life. I grew up with a small cockapoo named Zoe who passed away a couple years ago at 16. I adopted my own dog, Teddi, April 2023! Having my own dog has taught me so much about being a loving, hands-on caregiver. In addition to raising Zoe and my new puppy Teddi, I’ve spent many summers rescuing and fostering litters of feral kittens. Living in our home, I focused daily on socializing and caring for these litters until they were ready to be adopted by loving families. I partnered with a local animal shelter not only for the opportunity to help kittens, but also to be part of their dog program. I spent many volunteer hours walking and playing with all different sizes and breeds of dogs while they too waited for adoption. Working with both dogs and cats has helped me become an empathetic and enthusiastic caregiver. I have developed the skills necessary to handle the challenges that different animals may present, and love each one wholeheartedly as they are. My new puppy suffers from some separation anxiety so I am well equipped on how to care for and support dogs who miss their owners. She also has allergies so I also have some experience with how to cater to different food preferences! Friends and family have also depended on me for help with their pet care over the years. I am experienced in walking, bathing, feeding, playing, and all of kinds of care practices. Whatever your pet(s) needs, I’d love to take care of them and treat them with love and attention. Currently, my schedule is open and flexible for pet care. I live in Boulder, have a remote part time job and am taking remote online classes at CU Boulders business school. My days mostly revolve around taking care of my dog Teddi. I have plenty of time for walks, hikes, going to parks, etc… I am excited to care for your kiddo during the day or stay over with him/her as needed in your home. I would also love to have your fur babies in my home. Teddi loves other dogs and would be happy to help host!

“Elise sent plenty of pictures and took excellent care of my dog. Would highly recommend her, and plan on using her rover services again in the future!”

“Rui had great communication, we felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her. I appreciated receiving photo updates! I expect if we need Rui's help watching Maple again, Maple will be happy to see her ☺️”

Rui was so accommodating for arranging drop off and pick up, etc. Plus working with us when our flight was suddenly canceled! Charlie Girl was happy and I was soothed by the many pictures they sent throughout the week!
Olivia accommodated our last min booking and was able to board Bruno within the next hour. She posted us with updates throughout the time and took Bruno on fun hikes and walks.
Mychaela was wonderful taking care of my dog Cougar. Since he has some issues from not being properly socialized as a puppy, I was worried about leaving him with a sitter. But she took great care of him and was very patient.
Celia and Mark were so great! They were very flexible, kind and easy to work with, and took great care of my dog Daisy (two times). I would absolutely go back to them again. My dog loved them so much that she wanted to visit their house again when we were walking in their neighborhood...unusual for this rescue dog with abandonment issues, but the best endorsement I could ever ask for! They have a wonderful shaded yard with lots of grass, and a beautiful home. Just all-around excellent.
Jamey was so sweet boarding our young dog Otis. She sent daily updates that were honest and thorough. She is very trustworthy and caring and he absolutely loves her and coming back to see her.
Georgia was great with our dogs. They were clearly outside a lot and had fun! And my two big dogs made friends with her two little doggies. Highly recommend!
Delaney was amazing, and was super flexible with a last minute booking due to another sitter being very flaky and unprofessional resulting in a last minute cancellation. I came into the reservation really anxious and nervous about leaving my pup, and Delaney went out of her way to ensure I was comfortable with the situation and sent lots of updates on my dog’s care. I would definitely recommend Delaney for pet care and will be booking with her again.
Addison was great! I was apprehensive to use rover again after a bad experience, but she did a wonderful job. Highly recommended and thank you Addison!
Thanks again for giving Millie lots of love, play and cuddles. We look forward to future bookings. :)
Kait was great! She watched two of my dogs, one of which is a senior dog on a couple of medications, and they were very well taken care of! It was nice to head out of town and know the two of them were in great hands. Kait sent regular updates and had prompt communication. Will most definitely use her again!!
Kirby had a great time with Sophia and Ziggy the pup. Convenient location and a large fenced yard. Would definitely book again!
Teddy had such a good time with Devin and his wife! Normally he gets so anxious when I leave him but he was immediately comfortable with them. They updated me every day with photos and I’ve never seen him smiling so much. Will absolutely be my go-to sitters in the future 😊
Alison is wonderful! Our dog loves going to her house, and we always get so many photos of our dog playing and having a wonderful time. We will definitely bring our dog back!
Lia was great with my dog! Pick up and drop off were smooth and communication was easy. I would board with Lia again!
Spencer was great with Frankie and I'd definitely use him as a sitter again. She was happy and tired when she got home!
Emily did a great job with Gunnison, my high energy GSD, he seemed happy and exercised when we picked him up. She was great a communicating and provided pictures during his stay with her. I would definitely leave Gunnison ion Emily’s care again.
We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our rescue dog, while we took a week's vacation. From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease. Della is incredibly kind, attentive, and clearly loves what she does. Throughout the stay, she sent plenty of adorable pictures. It was wonderful to see our dog beaming and having so much fun. She came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. I’m so grateful we found her. She goes above and beyond, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Highly recommended!
Fred (Sean) was great! He took very good care of her Maggie; lots of walks and backyard fun. He sent many pictures and kept us posted on how she was doing. We greatly appreciated his care!!
Taryn is great. Very communicative and trustworthy! I felt very comfortable leaving my pup with her while going on vacation. He was well taken care of.
Ella did a great job watching Chuck! She sent updates and pictures during the stay which was great. She was also very flexible and understanding when I had issues with flights getting delayed that impacted when I could pick him up. Overall, I’d definitely recommend Ella and I know Chuck would love to go back.
