“Great boarding home. George was able to run around outside and play with the other dogs. Shaela was very communicative about how George was doing and took the extra step of sending pictures while he was there. Definitely will be using shaela again for boarding.”
“If I could, I’d give her 6 stars! Michelle treated my dog as if it were her own. She went beyond to make him feel at home especially when he wanted to be stubborn and not eat. She was quick at responding and gave continuous updates with pictures. I will definitely be continuing to book with her!”
“Trish is amazing!! Such a sweet person who so clearly loves all fur babies & took amazing care of my pup. She sent many photos & updates throughout the day, it was obvious my pup was having the best time with new human & dog friends! Couldn’t recommend more!🙏🏼”
“Courtney provided great care! I knew I was leaving my dog in good hands and sure enough, he had a great time! Highly recommend for trustworthy care from a great family.”
“Jennifer continues to be a joy! Tokki loves spending time here, and always comes home happy and tired. Jennifer has been so accommodating and we are so blessed to have found her.”
“I left Lucy for her first Rover.com. We were immediately put at ease by Donna. She asked great questions regarding Lucy's care. She has a lovely home with a fenced in backyard. Donna continued to send awesome photos all week long. It was great to see Lucy interacting with the entire family including Opal her beautiful Bichon puppy. It appears that Lucy and Opal had a great time together. I would highly recommend Donna!”
“Great sitter! Very caring, attentive, and responsible with the dogs. The place has a great resort-like environment where the dogs can feel comfortable, relaxed, and happy. It’s a really nice setup with a great atmosphere for dogs, and you can tell they enjoy their time there. The dogs are well taken care of and treated with plenty of attention and care. Great communication, very reliable, and easy to work with. Definitely recommend!”
“This was the 5th time my pups stayed over Nichole's house. Nichole and her family took great care of my pups again! One of my pups is not completed house training yet... But she managed it by taking him out very often... starting from 5 a.m. in the morning to late night. Thank you, Nichole.”
“Iolanta had a clean home and great personality! She took care of my Ares exactly as I would and it was nice knowing that I could trust him in someone’s care while I was away.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our two boys received from Ashlie and Shiloh! They were treated like family from the moment we left. They got daily walks, tons of love and attention, and even fun enrichment activities like puppy puzzles and water play. It was clear they were happy, engaged, and well cared for the entire time. We loved getting updates and seeing how much fun they were having. We will absolutely be booking with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!”
“Lori (Dolores) is a very sweet pup-sitter! She goes above and beyond to make sure our pups have a good place to call “home-away-from-home,” and gave us goodie-bags for the pups when we came back from our trip! Her boys love to cuddle and love on our dogs, too. Thank you, Lori! We appreciate you!- Krissi and Shawn, Teddy and Joy”
“Terri and her family watched our puppy for almost 2 weeks. It was the 1st time to use Rover and everything went very smoothly. Terri's instructions and expectations were clearly outlined and during the meet and greet we discussed everything in detail. Drop off went great as well as pick up. Terri sent a picture with a description of our pups day and quick to respond if I had any questions or felt like I needed an extra update. I would recommend Terri and her family and will use her services again in the future if we need them.”
“Lexi was amazing! She was quick to respond and kept in communication the whole time we were traveling. I received pictures of my puppers and he seemed happy and healthy and well cared for every day. I would highly recommend Lexi and would definitely feel comfortable trusting her with my pup again.”
“Abigail was absolutely amazing with my dog, she took great care of Jenny, and when we pick Jenny up she seems extremely happy. I’m truly greatful that they took the time out of their day to take care of my dog on such a short notice.”
“Paula is Wonderful! She took in our sweet old Gigi on short notice, she is a true dog lover and Gigi took to her immediately. Paula sent us numerous updates and pictures throughout Gigi's stay. She gave her affection, attention and a special spot on the couch, she even gave her a bath. I can't say enough great things about how well she cared for our pup and how much I would recommend her to take excellent care of your puppo.”
“Sarah was great! Our pup came home happy and healthy. She was great at communicating throughout his stay and was flexible with pick up and drop off. Would highly recommend!”
“Cara is amazing, Stanley has so much fun here with her and her pups! Always sending pictures, videos and keeping us updated! Leaving town should be stress free when trusting someone with your furrbaby and that is exactly what you get when booking with Cara! We know Stanley is well taken care of and we will continue to use and recommended Cara to anyone taking a trip who needs a caring, friendly sitter who treats animals as one of their own! 😊”
“Megan was great! She watched our dog for a week while we were out of town. She provided updates and pictures frequently and I could tell she had a great time. Will definitely use again!”

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 Ellicott 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 Ellicott.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Ellicott 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.
