“Sheila was amazing. I think my dog has more fun with Sheila than with me. I got a lot of updates and was able to enjoy my trip l knowing my dog was so well cared for.”
About: My husband and I have a cattle dog mix, Arley, who we rescued as a puppy. Before Arley came along, we had a sweet dog named Izzy who we loved and cared for right to the end. I understand the patience, consistency, and care that goes into raising and caring for a dog. I love dogs and enjoy getting to know each one’s unique personality and needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and will treat your dog with the same care and attention I give my own. I have also provided care for other dogs regularly over the past four years, giving me some valuable experience caring for dogs that are not my own. Your dog will be in caring, responsible hands with me (and my husband). 🐾 ✨ New to Rover? Get $20 off with my code: https://www.rover.com/sit/lindae01033 I recently left full-time work to find something with more flexibility and balance. Pet care is a great fit for me right now, and I have plenty of availability to provide reliable, attentive care. I enjoy having the flexibility to spend time with pets and make sure they get the care and attention they need. I will provide safe, attentive, and loving care for every pet. For walks, I will focus on keeping dogs comfortable, secure, and engaged while giving them the exercise and attention they need. For dogs that we care for in our home, we have a large fenced in yard that is great for dogs. I will take the time to get to know each dog and follow their individual routines, needs, and preferences. I treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own dog, and I believe clear communication with pet parents is an important part of building trust. Please note that scheduling a Meet & Greet prior to a first time booking is mandatory for me - I want to be sure that the booking is a good fit for both of us (and our pups).
“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!”
“Paul and Delia were wonderful. They sent lots of pics of our pup and kept in great communication. They even groomed her on the house and were accommodating when our flight was delayed. We appreciate their care and kindness!”
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner and lover for years. I currently care for my Golden Retriever, who joined my family as a rehomed dog. Helping him adjust, build a routine, and thrive has given me excellent hands-on experience with patience, positive reinforcement, and understanding a dog's unique needs during transitions. Whether your dog is a gentle giant who just wants some affection or an energetic pup who needs to burn off steam, I know how to read their cues and provide a safe, comfortable environment. I treat every dog I watch with the same level of care and attention I give my own. I work in a hybrid environment, working from home 2 days per week. During the weekends my Golden Retriever and I go for long walks, easy runs or long hikes. Focus: Socialization, family environment, and supervision. My home in Lafayette is a welcoming, active, and safe environment. Any visiting dog will have the company of my friendly 3 year old Golden Retriever, who is great at making new dogs feel at ease. I also have two children in the house half the week, making this a wonderful, engaging environment for kid-friendly dogs who love family interaction. I maintain a supervised, structured environment to ensure all dogs feel secure, with plenty of space for both playtime and quiet rest.
“I am so impressed with the care that Moriah provided!! We have high standards when it comes to taking care of our fur babies and Moriah exceeded our expectations. We were at ease knowing our baby was safe and loved on, tended to and payed attention.”
“Lynn and John are absolutely wonderful!!! They took amazing care of Chase and sent us many updates, photos, and videos! It was obvious that they loved him as much as we do and they made him part of their family from day one. If you need a loving place for your furry friend while you are away, please don't look any further...Lynn and John are the best! We will definitely be leaving Chase with Lynn and John whenever he needs a home away from home!! They serve 10,000 stars!”
“We had such a great experience with caroline ! She boarded our puppy for three nights and took amazing care of him the entire time. We got daily updates, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our puppy was happy, comfortable, and well-loved the whole stay. They were attentive, reliable, and truly went above and beyond. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter!”
“Susan is kind, caring, knowledgeable and loves my dog. The only negative is that I am worried that my dog will not want to come back home with me! My dog, Aloy will always stay at Susan’s when I need to board her!”
“Richard was very helpful and Fen was very happy when I picked him up. He has a yard that he loved playing in, and I received photos and thorough communication. Will rebook in the future.”
“Dana was very responsive and easy to work with and she took great care of Dolly. At the time, Dolly had a few cuts and needed meds, that was no problem. Dolly loved the long walks and attention for Dana's kids. I would love to have Dana watch Dolly again!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Julia! From the moment we met her, I could tell that she really understands dogs and knows how to read their behavior. She balances warmth and sensitivity with confident, grounded leadership, so she clearly knows how to set appropriate boundaries and make dogs feel secure without being harsh or overbearing. She was effortlessly attentive and tuned in to my girl Cedar’s needs during our meet & greet, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Her dog, Daisy, is such a sweet and gentle being as well. I’m so grateful my pup had such a good and safe doggie friend while I was away! Julia communicated through thoughtful little updates, anecdotes, pics, and vids, so I knew how Cedar was doing. She also went above and beyond by taking her on extra-special walks and giving her plenty of fun, enriching time outside. I’m very particular about who I leave my dog with, and I would absolutely trust Julia with her again. I feel really lucky to have found her!”
“Leah was absolutely wonderful with our dog Maisy. She sent regular photo updates and kept us completely at ease while we were away. We returned home to a very happy, relaxed dog and will definitely be booking with her again.”
About: I’ve been a pet parent for as long as I’ve been alive. I’ve taken care of cats, fostered kittens, bearded dragons, and I currently own a 10 year old boxer mix. I’ve been trusted by family and friends to take care of their fur babies and treat them with the most dignity! I’d love to meet yours! I work in the hospitality industry, so I have flexible hours within the week. I typically work from 7am-3pm, and come home at 12pm daily. I have a spacious apartment to house your pet as well as a balcony for fresh air. I do not have a yard, however I do live near multiple dog parks. I have a 10 year old friendly boxer mix to keep your furry friend company!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Boulder
Jessica (and her dog Sophie) were a perfect match for our dog Maple! This was our first time using rover and ever boarding any of our dogs and Jessica made us feel at ease. Our dog was exhausted afterwards from so much playing (Maple almost seemed a little depressed when we got home because she wasn’t with her new friend Sophie).
Madeline was AMAZING with our dogs! We recently adopted a second dog and at the last minute Madeline was so accommodating and added her to our booking. She took notes during our meet and greet which was so professional. She updated us twice a day very consistently with lots of pictures and how the dogs were doing. Our dogs looked so happy that I don’t think they even missed us! We loved Madeline so much and are most definitely going to book with her again :)
Nicole was amazing with our 2 dogs- ages 5 and 10. The older one even developed an upset stomach while she was there and Nicole took amazing care of her and kept us in the loop. She was a great communicator and very proactive. I would leave my dogs with her anytime!
Della was absolutely wonderful! This was the first time in about two years that my husband and I had both been away from our two dogs at the same time, so finding someone we felt comfortable with was really important to us. She did an amazing job caring for both our high-energy 3.5-year-old Lab and our older pup, who has a more complicated routine with lots of medications and special needs. Della was incredibly attentive, kept us updated, and sent just the right amount of photos so we could enjoy our trip knowing our boys were in great hands. She truly gave us so much peace of mind, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely trust her with our boys again and highly recommend her!
Maggie was awesome taking care of our two fur babies for a multiple week stay. She sent us pictures and updates to let us know how they were doing. Our dogs seemed very comfortable and relaxed with her and getting the care and attention they need. We had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend her and book with her again.
This was a great experience. Thank you Emily for being so flexible with a last minute booking! Emily took our high-energy dog on a walk the same night after we dropped her off and the next morning so she would feel more comfortable. Nyla came back seeming like she did well. Thanks a lot!
Sean and Kim took wonderful care of my dog, Dakota, for two and a half weeks while my husband and I were out of town. Dakota has anxiety issues and they were very patient and caring with her, making her feel at home in their very dog-friendly house. Dakota enjoyed the company of their dog, Denver, and the other dogs who visited. She also loved being able to go on walks every day. Sean and Kim are very knowledgeable and experienced dog sitters. After the meet and greet I felt very confident that they would take great care of my girl and they certainly did. Dakota settled in after a few days and was very comfortable with them. I am very grateful to have found Sean and Kim and wish I had met them sooner. They are terrific!!
Clover was the best dog sitter we could’ve asked for while we were away for 10 days. She was heaven sent!! She took care of my 2 Labs as if they were her own. Will definitely be using her again and again!! She sent pictures of the pups while we were away, and kept us updated the whole time. Couldn’t recommend Clover enough!!!
Julie took such good care of my 12 yr old dog, Buzz. I can’t say enough how much fun and how comfortable he looked during his stay. Alice was very sharing and cuddly with him. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Buzz had an exceptional stay and received all his medicines he takes as an older pup with some health issues.
