About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for weeks at a time for the past four years in Colorado and Southern California. I love having your pup around as a friend and companion here in boulder, CO! Your dog can expect lots of walks, hikes, playing in our backyard, and many cuddles! I work remotely from home so have time to take your dog out on walks, feed them at the times they are used to, and hang out and play! I have a fenced in backyard and a park right around the corner. I am comfortable taking your dogs on walks and hikes in the area!
“Allison and John were so amazing and took great care of my doggie. They were also super communicative, took lots of pictures and did two walks. Their home has a really nice backyard. I feel super grateful, thank you Allison and John for taking such good care of Yara 🌸🥹”

“Georgia was great! My nervous pup had a good time and was relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Communication was fast and clear, and I received an update mid-day.”


“J’Ana took absolutely amazing care of our dog, Scout, tonight while we were out for dinner. She was so attentive to Scout’s every need — from taking her on walks, to bonding with her, to sending thoughtful updates that made us feel completely at ease. It was clear Scout felt comfortable, cared for, and genuinely happy in her company. We’re incredibly grateful for J’Ana’s kindness, reliability, and the way she connected with Scout right away. We’re already excited for Scout to spend time with her again tomorrow. Highly recommend!”


About: I provide personalized, one-on-one care so every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat each dog like family and take time to understand their unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog needs long walks, active playtime, or calm cuddles, I adapt to what makes them happiest and most relaxed. I am patient, reliable, and detail-oriented, so you can feel confident your dog is in good hands while you’re away. I’ve had dogs my whole life and have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all personalities and needs. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and care throughout the day. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I can easily adjust to their routine and needs. I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for pets in my care. I live in an apartment and have access to a fenced outdoor area for secure outdoor time and walks. I do not currently have any dogs in my home, so your pet will receive my full attention.
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life! I had three cats and a dog growing up, along with helping out with pets of my other family members. I did an unpaid internship at a veterinary hospital so I know how important it is to take good care of our animals! I’m currently in college classes for a few hours a day during weekdays, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! Now that it’s getting warmer outside, I’m excited to be able to do outdoor walks with your pups! My home is laid out so there is no danger of your pet getting into anything and I live in a good neighborhood for walking around!
About: I have been around animals since I was little and have hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes, personalities, and needs. The safety and well-being of your pets is my top priority, and I will always make sure your pups have everything they need to feel happy, healthy, and comfortable while you are away! I work from home, so I am always available to walk, cuddle, and play throughout the day! I also go on walks regularly with my pup Milo and would be more than happy to accommodate for any specific routines and needs that your pet may have. I live in a quiet, spacious apartment right by the park. I have 1 dog of my own, Milo, who is extremely friendly, playful, and sweet. He gets along with everyone, including other dogs and cats! Milo also grew up with kittens, so he knows how and when to be more gentle with other animals.
“Laika's stay with Alison went well: she was socialized with other dogs, which is great, and she had access to the outdoors to romp and play. She was sleepy when we got home, which is fantastic. :) Alison also sent plenty of pictures so I got to appreciate some of the adventures Laika was having.”
About: I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have always loved spending time with them. Over the years, I’ve gained a lot of experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Being around dogs has always come naturally to me, and I genuinely enjoy giving them attention, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away. I am currently a student taking online classes from home while also working a part-time job, so I spend a lot of time at home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day and make sure they feel comfortable and well looked after. I live in a house with a small yard and am across the street from a small park, with a much larger park only a few blocks away, which is great for walks and outdoor time. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for by giving them lots of attention, playtime, and regular potty breaks or walks. Since I spend a lot of time at home, pets will rarely be left alone for long periods and will always have someone around to keep them company and stick to their normal routine.
“Dally exceeded our expectations; she went above and beyond keeping our crazy Jack Russells thoroughly entertained and exercised. They loved staying there and cannot wait to return. I really cannot say enough good things about Dally - she is the best!”


About: Hi! My name is Jaycie! 🐾 I’m a huge animal lover and have 3 Golden Retrievers of my own at my parents’ house in Littleton. I’ve worked in both an animal hospital and a doggy daycare, which has given me experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’d love to help by watching or walking your pup(s)! I have experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs and am comfortable administering oral medications. I’ve also worked with high-energy dogs, multi-dog households, and dogs who just need a little extra attention and playtime. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just getting plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure they’re happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away! I love taking videos and pictures of doggies so expect to receive some while I care for your dog! As of now I am available all day, any day with a heads up of when u want/need me! I cannot wait to meet your puppies! I have friendly neighbors and no dogs in my current home. I have bowls for food and water and a yard for them to run in as well as a park just down the road!
“Perfect stay for our Nina. She was taken for walks, we received photos of Nina’s happy day. Trust worthy person, we highly recommend her. Nina was wagging her tail each morning that they me! Perfection. Thank you for taking good care of Nina!!”

“Celia and Mark took excellent care of my dog, Winston! He has separation anxiety so I was quite nervous to leave him with someone else but they handled it beautifully! He got a lot of play time and a walk, and loved running around in their yard. Celia and Mark kept me updated with pictures and videos so I knew he was doing well. I highly recommend them!”

“Emilie helped us out tremendously with some last minute day care. She's quick to respond, friendly, and I felt at ease leaving our pup with her. Two big thumbs up from us!”

“Bretta is incredible! She was so patient and caring for my pup during his stays with her. He was extremely anxious but she was able to help him feel secure while I was away. She did an excellent job of checking in and trying methods to help my dog. We were so lucky to find her and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly caring sitter and an overall quality stay!”

“Rui was amazing with my two pups. I was nervous about leaving them as they are still puppies and can be a handful, plus they have never spent time away. But Rui took great care of them for the day. We hit traffic and were late picking them up and she was so understanding and kind. I will definitely use Rui again.”

About: I have over 15 years of dog caring experience, involving different breeds, ages, and personalities. My specialty is smaller doggies. My philosophy with care makes sure dogs get active time, park time, quality time, fun adventures, time with friends, and lots of affection. I make sure your doggy needs are met, being versatile with the activities we do while they stay at my place. As a mostly remote worker, I have a lot of flexibility and ample time to take your dog on walks and give them lots of care and attention, be it on the couch or outside. Doggies have access to water, clean bowls, toiletries, and all their basic needs. My entire place is dog-proofed, so hazard mitigation is present. Dogs have the opportunity of enjoying different surfaces based on their needs, including hardwood, carpet, rugs, and a comfy couch.
About: Beginning as a volunteer and rescuer, I then moved into pet and house sitting. I continue to foster and volunteer with a local animal rescue and treasure my time with all kinds of animals. I am creating this profile to highlight my specialty services such as dog running, homemade pet food, and portraiture.** A lover of all animals and nature, I’m happiest with both. My touch and voice are gentle, and my style is consistent. Having pets of all kinds and sizes growing up and continuing into adulthood has been a sincere source of joy, gratitude, and service. In the last few years, my time spent volunteering at a local rescue has greatly expanded my experience and skill- especially with special needs animals. Special services and care that I offer include: ~applying my professional chef training to prepare specialty pet food for unique needs, allergies, anxiety, or other conditions alleviated with herbs and nutrition ~when house/pet sitting for you, I’m happy to address the refrigerator and pantries to prepare food before it spoils and leaving you a home cooked meal upon your return or storing in your freezer ~professionally cleaned, organized, and stocked kitchen for you while you are at work or away Additionally, I have been trained and actively competing in Colorado roller derby for 7 years. Using this experience, robust padding, and training, I will exercise dogs that need more than a walk to take them at their pace and level on trail runs on my roller skates. In my many years experience of doing this with several clients as well as rescue animals in my foster care, I have observed many benefits such as: ~improved obedience ~naturally filed nails ~increased happiness and smiles ~less scratching, digging, jumping, whining, barking, and other undesirable behavior ~better sleeping ~improved health and well being The majority of my time during the day is spent outdoors hiking, roller skating the bike paths, or in the garden, and I love to have the company of animals for all of it. At night, I cook, dance, and will read aloud to whoever is in the house. I find animals love this too. As a private chef, I have a lot of time outside of scheduled private events and parties. I can build catering quotes, shop online, and write menus from anywhere. This leaves plenty of time and attention for animals in my care. I like to be outdoors as much as possible and having a pet companion makes it all the more enjoyable for me. I live in a clean and cozy townhouse very near multiple parks and paths. I use harnesses and good judgment while on excursions. I am trained in pet care, proper hydration, nutrition, and herbalism for pets. I never raise my voice and use positive reinforcement and fun to enlist cooperation. Furthermore, animals that are food motivated or fun motivated LOVE me. I love to be outdoors and active but can also cuddle inside for the furry friends that prefer one or both. If your dog likes to run, good news! I like to go fast on the bike paths! Caring for your pet(s) is the highest honor and takes priority while in my care. Please let me know about special needs, but otherwise you can trust that my regular routine is to play, be outside, laugh, show kindness, and provide stellar caregiving.
About: I’ve been in love with dogs since I can remember, and my favorite type of work/volunteering has always involved them. When I was 15 I started dog sitting for my family friend, I watched and walked little Johnny twice a week for almost 2 years while his mom was out doing errands. After that, I started volunteering at the LoveJoy Foundation, an animal rescue in California. I walked dogs, cleaned crates, and even helped with vaccinations once a week at adoption events! My time at LoveJoy was one of the most rewarding experiences ever, and it taught me how to work with different types of dogs and different behaviors, including neurodivergent and disabled pups. I have a family dog of my own, sweet Montana, who will always be my best friend no matter how far apart we are. Montana is a bit older now, so we mostly enjoy hanging out on the couch together, but in his prior years I loved taking him on hikes, to the dog beach, and really anywhere that I went. I also have a crested gecko named Axel! I’m currently a junior at CU Boulder, so I do have school during the week but only for about 2-3 hours each day, most of the time I’m home to care for a pup! I absolutely love being outside here in Boulder, it’s too beautiful not to be, so walks and adventures are plentiful! I have a large house for your pup to roam around, but if it’s preferred that he stays in a crate during the day I can accommodate that too! My yard isn’t fenced, but we would have a lot of outside time at the park and on walks exploring all corners of Boulder. I do have experience dog sitting in client’s homes, I know that some dogs are probably more comfortable staying in their own home!
Central Boulder dog parents share their Rover experiences
J’Ana was absolutely incredible with our pup, Scout! From the moment we met her, we could tell how genuinely caring and loving she is, and that only became more evident throughout our stay in Boulder. She treated Scoutie like her own, giving her so much attention, affection, and thoughtful care. Her communication was outstanding the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. And the photos she sent were beyond amazing—her husband being a professional photographer definitely shows! Each update made us smile and reassured us that Scout was happy, comfortable, and in the best hands. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We will absolutely be booking J’Ana again the next time we’re back in Boulder, and we strongly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely love and care for their pet like their own. She is truly wonderful!! 🐶🐾💖

Allison and John are great sitters! Very communicative, they clearly care about the animals in their care, and I didn’t worry a second about our nervous dog. They have a great place to host: quiet neighborhood, lovely yard, lots of places for dogs to rest. Mac gets a very special mention- I think he might have been our dog’s most favorite part. Mac’s a great buddy to everyone and he’ll keep your dog company during naps and very engaged during playtime. I’ll definitely be using them again and would recommend them to others!

Kelly is a 10/10 recommendation for anyone in the Boulder area. she was quick to respond. Extremely flexible with drop off and pick up arrangements. She sent me constant updates and truly cared about my animals time. If I’m ever back in Boulder I will be in touch before get to the city so Rick can spend a day with her again!

Celia and Mark took excellent care of my dog, Winston! He has separation anxiety so I was quite nervous to leave him with someone else but they handled it beautifully! He got a lot of play time and a walk, and loved running around in their yard. Celia and Mark kept me updated with pictures and videos so I knew he was doing well. I highly recommend them!
