“We loved Breanne and her family! Maz had a great time and was so well taken care of! Breanne sent plenty of pictures for us which we appreciate so much since it was Maz’s first time away from home! 100% recommend!”
“Amanda and her family recently watched our baby girl Sunny. I was so nervous at first because we’ve never used this app. Well I’m glad we did, because we absolutely loved it. They treated Sunny like she was their own. We will definitely use her again and couldn’t be happier!”
“Niki, Josh, and Zeus are amazing sitters! We got daily pics of our pup and they took care of him like he was their own. We were so happy to see that he settled in so nicely and were 100% sure that’s because they are amazing pet parents! Thank you!!”
“Luna is always happy to see Sylvia. When Luna stays with her, we feel secure in knowing that Luna will be well cared for, and treated as if she were Sylvia’s own pet. We are repeat customers for a good reason.”
“Priya was amazing! We know our sweet boy was well taken care of and very happy! She sent numerous updates if him playing, exploring and snuggling. We’re beyond fortunate to have someone with such a great heart to care for our Noodle!”
“I needed a sitter for my dog, Kaia, just for a day. She seemed to have a great day with Lindsey and Dan. They sent me lots of updates and Kaia was tired when I picked her up. They were friendly and kind and I would definitely feel comfortable leaving Kaia with them again 😊”
“If you want your pet to be loved and treated like family, leave them with Ryan and his wife! My 13 year old Puggle has never liked being boarded, and I always felt bad leaving her with family or friends who work away from home all day So this (Rover) was something different to try. She loved being in Ryan’s care for a week, and the day after picking her up, I truly feel like she missed him! I definitely would leave her with him again in the future, and am already feeling good about planning the next trip away.”
“Our dog had a wonderful time and was well loved. They went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable. We will be booking with them again. Great communication.”
“Heather was great! She communicated really well and sent plenty of photo updates throughout the weekend. My dogs looked so happy and comfortable almost like they were on their own little vacation! Highly recommend her for anyone needing a caring, reliable sitter!”
“Ed, Gibson and Sarge had a great time and were very well taken care of at Tyler's place. He was very responsive and sent photos/updates during their stay. I highly reccommend Tyler!”
“Donaji was an absolute pleasure to work with. Her sweet demeanor and communication skills made the process stress-free. We were thrilled to receive constant updates through videos and pictures and pleasantly surprised by the progress our dogs made under her care. Louie took a particular liking to her dog Oreo and Bella’s anxiety was well handled as opposed to the usual panting and shaking she experiences after boarding. We can tell that our furry friends miss her and Oreo already, and would definitely use her services again.”
“Corey has a great setup for taking care of dogs. My big and my little dog came back happy and healthy. I said it was fine for my dogs to be watched with other dogs. My German Shepherd looked like she had a great time playing with new friends. My little dog came back extra clean, with a slight trim I had approved. Corey is probably the best sitter we have hired over the past 8 years. We usually hire someone once a year.”
“Hayley, Nicholas, and their boys took wonderful care of our pup, Ada. She looked so comfortable and relaxed with them. It was clear right from the meet and greet how invested they were in learning about Ada and doing their best to care for her while we were out of town. They also sent frequent updates and pictures. We will definitely board Ada with Hayley and her family again in the future and highly recommend that you consider them as well.”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. My experience goes far beyond basic pet sitting—I’ve worked professionally caring for dogs, cats, horses, livestock, reptiles, and other animals. I’m comfortable with senior pets, puppies, large and high-energy dogs, multi-pet households, special feeding routines, and administering medications. I also have experience recognizing changes in an animal’s behavior or condition that may need extra attention. Most importantly, I treat every animal like I would want someone to treat my own. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so keeping them safe, comfortable, happy, and loved is always my priority. 🐾 Pet care is already a huge part of my everyday life, so adding a few more furry friends to my routine comes naturally! My schedule allows me to offer walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine whenever possible, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I take the time to learn each animal’s normal routine, personality, boundaries, and needs rather than assuming every pet should be handled the same way. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding and medication instructions, caring for senior and special-needs animals, and recognizing changes in behavior or health that may need attention. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would want someone to show mine.
“April and her family were wonderful with our two German Shepherds. She immediately responded to all our messages, and sent daily updates and photos. Our pups were well taken care of, looked just at home with April's family. And her husband and kids all were excellent care takers for us while we were away. Absolutely recommend boarding with her again!”
“Kristen is amazing! I always book with her when I go out of town because she’s so great with my dog and the communication is fantastic. She’s so sweet and I never worry when she is watching my dog.”
“Sarah watched my two labs over the 4th of July weekend. She was awesome! Sent us lots of pics and gave us updates throughout their stay. My dogs had a great time and were tuckered out when they got home and slept well. Will definitely have our labs stay with Sarah again.”

I have nothing but good things to say about Emily! I appreciated the meet and greet beforehand to make sure our dogs got along, and the communication was excellent throughout the stay. She sent photos and updates, and it was clear our dog was happy! Knowing she was in such good hands gave us peace of mind. We hope to use Emily again.
We are so grateful that we boarded our dog with Barbara for a week. We have a senior dog and searched Rover profiles carefully to find the right match. We also had more than one Rover Meet/Greet. Barbara was the ONLY pet sitter who asked questions about our dog (personality, habits, etc),who requested confirmation of industry standard vaccinations that all dogs should have whether kept as a single or with other dogs, and who allowed time for her to get to know our dog and for us to get to know her. Her boarding provided a large fenced space for our dog to play and explore. She also sent photos as requested. Our favorite photo was a "doggie blur" of our Lil' senior dog having a blast running with a new found furry friend. Barbara has a system in place that allows her to provide a safe and loving environment for your furry family member. We would definitely recommend her and use her services again!
Kip and Kathleen were amazing with our two dogs! We got tons of updates while we were out of town which we appreciated and we could tell our pups were well loved and cared for with them which is all any pet owner can hope for. The pups came home nice and tired which is always a sign of a good time :) You can count on your pups being in good hands with Kip and Kathleen and we will definitely book them again in the future!
Amanda and her family were so wonderful! I received regular updates and pics about Chloe. I knew she was in really good hands with Amanda. She loved playing with their little dog. I cannot thank you enough for watching her while I was on vacation. It was very much appreciated :)
Brittany and her family were amazing. We recently moved and needed to find a new sitter after having a go-to for a long time. This was the smoothest transition into a new situation we could have hoped for, again, Brittany was amazing. She communicated often, made sure to understand my don's needs, sent pictures and videos, and was easy to plan with. My dog had an incredible time and came back healthy and happy from a fun weekend. Can't wait to use Brittany and her family next time!
Jodie and her family took great care of our dog Olive while we were out of town. She gave us updates every single day, sent us plenty of pictures and I know our dog was happy and comfortable the whole time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Olive was in good hands. We'd absolutely book with Jodie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Cottonwood home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Cottonwood.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Cottonwood sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CO ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
