Celia and Mark were excellent hosts for our dog. They made her feel right at home and she came back as happy as ever. They have an amazing yard for the dog to spend time outside and made sure she was comfortable sleeping at night. I highly recommend this family!

Lia provided excellent care to our dog while we were out of town. She surprised our girl with a pup cup, took her on a trip to the park and also got her a couple of balls to play with. She kept us in the loop on all the fun they were having and sent us plenty of photo updates. We will be continuing to use Lia for future bookings!

About: I’ve been volunteering at shelters and fostering kittens since I was ten. I spent all of high school coaching young girls in gymnastics and dog sitting for my mom’s famous Rover business. Now, as a dedicated college student, I take off on my own, ready for all the tail wags! I am a full time college student with around 3 hours per day of classes, in 1 hour intervals. Otherwise, I am home and ready 24/7 for your pup! I take pet sitting very seriously so that pets can feel just as comfortable as they do at home. Proper feeding, walks, attention, and comfort are necessary in my home. My apartment has my fish-loving roommate and my hamster DJ, all to keep your dog safe and happy amongst my animal world!

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years and honestly just love being around them. Friends, neighbors, and family often trust me to walk, feed, bathe, and stay overnight with their pets. I’m very patient, attentive, and responsible, and I really try to tune into each animal’s personality and needs. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy, a shy rescue, or a senior pet who needs extra gentleness, I adjust to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I’m active and happy to go on long walks or hikes, but I also love calm companionship. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priority. I’m currently a student at Naropa and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pet. I’m fully available Fridays and Sundays, Monday mornings, and Tuesday afternoons and evenings. I’m typically busiest on Wednesdays. I’m also available for boarding and can provide a safe, loving environment while you’re away. I’m happy to coordinate times that work best for you and your pet’s routine. I’m very attentive and mindful when caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully and keep a clean, calm environment. I’m comfortable with crates if needed and always make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure. I send regular updates and photos so you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, relaxed, and loved.

About: I am a work from home professional with a 2 year old mini Bernadoodle. I recently had to say goodbye to our senior dog and am looking forward to sharing our large backyard and cute pup with some new furry friends. I work from home with a flexible schedule. Your pup will feel safe and comfortable with easy access to the backyard and mid-day walks. We have a cute, fun 2 year old mini Bernadoodle who loves to play and nap during the day. There is a dog door to a large fenced in backyard.

My dog Evie loved staying with Alison! She got to be outside a lot and loved Alison's dog Magic. Evie can be nervous when going new places, but Alison helped her adjust quickly and we could tell she would be fine without us. We were updated frequently with photos of Evie swimming and having fun! We will definitely continue to go to Alison any time we need overnight stays or day care for Evie.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who grew up with four dogs, a German Shepherd, two medium-sized mixed breeds, and a Chihuahua, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve also pet sat for neighbors’ dogs and understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine. I love spending time with dogs and will make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I am also a triathlete and would love to take your dog on a run/trail run if they are very active! I am currently a part time university student so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I am also fully available on Fridays and the weekends! When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I will follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, and any other care your pet needs. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention and companionship so they feel safe while you’re away. I’ll treat your home and your pets with respect and care, just like they’re my own.

100% recommended!!! Dana was able to accommodate an emergency where I had to travel abroad unexpectedly. I’m certain that Ares was super well taken care of. The next day I returned to pick something up and my dog was super excited to go back inside and greet everyone which normally doesn’t happen! I received constant updates. Ares got plenty of walks and I’m sure plenty of playtime because he played with the entire family all the time. They are a great family. I’m glad I found a safe, fun, and healthy environment where I can leave Ares without having to worry 💕

Not only is Natalie absolutely lovely, but she’s also super cool and you’ll probably want to hang out with her. I had no doubt my precious pup was in excellent hands. I also had some wonkiness with my schedule and really appreciated Natalie’s kindness and flexibility. We will definitely schedule with her again!

Absolutely amazing! This was our first Rover experience and Sommer really knocked it out of the park. She made it a smooth process and answered any questions we had in a timely manner. She provided pictures of our fur daughter every day while in her care. We will reach out again next time we are in the area and need a sitter. Thanks again!

If Ruby could talk, I know she would tell me she had the BEST time with Barbara and Mel. From coordinating drop off times, to regular communication and picture updates, Barbara kept me in the loop with how my girl was settling in. I appreciated her responsiveness and thoughtfulness around caring for the special needs of a vizsla. Mel is very well trained, enthusiastic and super generous to share her space with Ruby. I hope Ruby can stay with them in the future!
