“Margaret took great care of our pup and even let her sleep in her bed. She was also flexible with drop off and pick up. I will feel very comfortable leaving my pup with Margaret again.”

“Nikki was awesome! I boarded my dog with her for the day and she was very flexible and accommodating! She kept me updated and Zoey looked pretty content at her place which made it easier for me to enjoy my day without worrying so much. Highly recommend!”
“Karilyn is hands down one of the best Rover caretakers I have worked with. She is so kind and thoughtful and anticipated all of my wants and needs without me even having to ask. I highly recommend her and she will certainly be the first person I go to any chance I get.”

“Megan and her husband were absolutely great with Barney! He had a big back yard to play in, Megan took him on multiple runs during his stay and made him feel as comfortable as possible. Would highly recommend Megan as I will be going back to her for my next out of town trip.”


About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover who has been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs taught me how important it is to provide pets with patience, attention, exercise, and lots of love. For the past 6 years, I've volunteered with Fulton County Animal Services, where I've worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments. As a Level 3 volunteer, I have extensive experience handling, walking, socializing, and caring for shelter dogs, including those who may need extra patience and confidence-building. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn their individual needs and routines. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with a companion, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and look forward to meeting your furry family member! I do work a part-time job, but I carefully manage my schedule to ensure every pet in my care receives plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I maintain a consistent routine and make your pet's comfort and well-being a top priority while they're staying with me. I'm always happy to discuss my schedule and your pet's specific needs to make sure we're a great fit. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they receive plenty of exercise, attention, playtime, and affection while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments through my 6 years of volunteering at Fulton County Animal Services as a Level 3 volunteer. This experience has taught me how to read canine body language, build trust with nervous dogs, and safely handle a variety of personalities and energy levels. I pay close attention to each pet's needs, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise requirements, and any special instructions from their owners. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment so both pets and their owners can feel confident and at ease.
“Stephen and family were wonderful caretakers. My dog instantly felt comfortable with them. I greatly appreciated Stephen's communication, flexibility, and questions to better get to know Bodhi. Knowing my dog was in a great place where he was being cared for and loved helped me enjoy my vacation even more. Thanks for a wonderful experience! Will definitely use again!”

“Charissa was wonderful with my dog Cora. She sent lots of updates and photos of my dog having a good time and checked with me about things if she had questions. I felt so happy to have found Charissa!”

“Sean and Kim were great with our dog Maisie. They took excellent care of her and provided regular updates. Would definitely recommend them to others.”

“Mitzi & Klifton were the first people I trusted to watch my pup, Kabotie. I was nervous about leaving him with anyone but the meet and greet we had before his stay calmed my nerves. And the daily pictures, sometimes multiple per day were so appreciated. I would highly recommend them for anyones pup, they’re a very loving couple that give a ton of individual attention to each dog. Plus they have a beautiful backyard, perfect for pups to run around!”

“Cassandra was great! Very friendly and took great care of our dog Parker. She sent lots of cute photos and videos and kept us updated throughout Parker’s stay. My pet was very well cared for and I will book again with Cassandra.”

“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.”


“Juan did an amazing job caring for my dog for two nights. From the start, communication was clear, timely, and reassuring, which immediately made me feel comfortable leaving my pup in his care. He followed all instructions carefully and made sure my dog’s routine stayed consistent, including feeding, walks, and playtime. I especially appreciated the updates and photos he sent, which showed my dog relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious he treated my dog like his own and paid attention to the little details that matter. When I picked my dog up, he was calm, well-exercised, and in great spirits. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Juan again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”

“Sophia took excellent care of my dog. Perhaps the best sign is when I picked her up, she went back in the house and tried to stay with Sophia instead of come home with me. She even gave Stella a bath before pick up without my asking.”

“Elise was just incredible! She took amazing care of my pup and I will absolutely be returning in the future. I especially appreciated the flexibility and understanding for my extenuating circumstances ❤️. I couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Karla and her family were wonderful with our doggie - and so easy to work with for us humans! We appreciated the pictures and messages she sent assuring us that our pup was happy and well-cared for! We are so grateful to have found such a great place to take our doggie when we travel!”

“My dog, Bowie, had another great stay with Jan & Patrick! He's always so excited to hang out with Jan & Patrick and really enjoys the yard and long walks. I look forward to booking again!”

“Wookiee was well cared for, thank you!! A little more communication throughout his stay would have been nice; otherwise, he came back very happy! I'd book with Elizabeth again.”

Boulder pet parents share their Rover experiences
Maddy took excellent care of our dog Addie! She was very communicative and made us feel very comfortable with leaving Addie with her. She was happy to accommodate our situation and the medications and special care that Addie needed. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!! 😊

Chelsea was amazing! We recently lost our older dog, so my dog has been feeling a bit lonely. Chelsea had an older dog- Fergus who was so sweet and played with Little Bear so well. She sent pictures and checked in consistently and made me feel really good. Anytime I’m in the Boulder area, I will check to see if she is available!

Addison took such wonderful care of our dog Lily, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Addison was incredibly attentive, kept us updated, followed all of Lily’s care instructions, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Lily came home happy, comfortable, and well cared for, which means everything to us. We would absolutely trust Addison with Lily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful pet sitter. Thank you Addison, for taking such great care of our little girl!

Alicia is A+! We have a 17yo dog with dementia. We had her stay at our place while we went on a weekend trip. She watched our house as well as our dogs and kept us informed every morning and afternoon. Arrival and departure was smooth. We will definitely be asking her to sit as often as we can.
Sophia always takes the best care of my dog. They have the perfect environment for pet sitting, with a big backyard for the dogs to play and nature nearby! I always know when I leave town Sophia will go above and beyond to take care of my husky Cia. Highly recommend!
