“Joan helped us out for a last minute need and we’re happy we did. She took such good care of Lola. Lots of long walks -a Lola favorite - and wonderful attention. Joan provided regular updates with pictures and videos and was very accommodating on pickup/drop when we were running a little later than planned. Lola was all tuckered out and happy when we picked her up.”
“Emma was amazing with Curry! Her dogs even taught him how to howl 🥰 she included many photos and videos and Curry misses being there already, we can tell!! She will be our new go to sitter for him.”
“We weren’t able to book our normal sitter for our dog reactive pup and thought we’d have to miss a family trip until we met with Chris. Chris met with us and our pup a couple times very close to the date of the trip a to make sure our dog was comfortable in the new environment with new person. Once it seemed like he was, we talked through our dogs reactivity with Chris who was very attentive and understanding. He even went out of his way to let his neighbor (who has a dog) know he’d have a reactive pup there which was very thoughtful. During the trip, Chris gave us great updates and we felt good knowing he was in good hands. If we need a sitter again for any period of time, Chris will definitely be top of mind. Thanks Chris!”
“Barbara was so sweet and kind to Leia. She let Leia explore her house and her yard (which Leia loves) and took care of her. Leia loved her time with Barbara and another dog Barbara was sitting. Barbara also constantly kept us updated with pictures. Leia had the best time in Colorado at Barbara's place.”
“Sue was great! Very communicative and she had plenty of places for my 1yo Golden puppy to play. He’s still tired a day later, and had a blast. Will definitely send him to Sue again.”
“Could not have asked for a better weekend-stay for my dog! I was worried he wouldnt want to come home haha Received great updates all weekend and my pup was happy as a clam!”
About: Hey, I'm Jason! Dogs have always been part of my life, and right now Peanut and I are holding down a home that's basically a dog's dream: a fenced yard, a quiet street, and the river and bike path just steps away for long walks and sniff-filled adventures. I offer boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, and doggy day care — with a flexible schedule, so I'm usually available whenever you need me. Here's what your pet can count on: Meals and meds on time, every time Real exercise — yard time plus trail walks by the river Photo/video updates so you always know they're doing great A calm, patient touch, especially for shy or nervous pups Your home and your pet treated with total respect I'd love to meet you both — reach out anytime! Services offered: Boarding, House Sitting, Drop-In Visits, Dog Walking, Doggy Day Care I'm home most of the day, every day, so pet care fits naturally into my routine rather than being squeezed in. When I'm not home, it's usually because I'm out on an adventure somewhere in the county — and dogs in my care are always welcome to tag along on those outings if they're up for it. This flexibility means consistent feeding times, regular walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Since I'm home most of the day, pets in my care get consistent supervision rather than long stretches alone. At my place, there's a fully fenced yard for secure off-leash time, plus the river and bike path right outside for walks and adventures — and if I'm heading out into the county for the day, well-suited dogs are welcome to come along for the ride. In a client's home, I follow their routine closely, keep doors and gates secure, and treat the space with the same care I'd want for my own.
“High praise for Nicole, Craig and family! Our Cozmo's first stay with this lovely family was a great success. He's kind of a homebody and mostly just wants to be near his humans, but he settled in very quickly. In fact, it almost seemed like he wanted to stay longer when we arrived to pick him up. We appreciated Nicole's excellent communication and flexibility with our schedule. We will definitely return. Thank you so much!”
“Odin came home with huge smiles from his week with Steve and his family. Wr received photos and updates. He got daily walks and lots of cuddles. It is such a relief to know that while we are far away on a vacation our teddy bear of a dog was in such good hands and getting lots of love. Highly recommend Steve and his family for any dog sitting needs. We will definitely be using them again.”
“Paul and Delia were excellent in caring for Meg and communicating with us! We also requested grooming for our Saint Bernard and she’s never looked better! Thanks so much. We will definitely outreach again!”
“Georgia took great care of Zia! She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She handled Zia's special diet and medications with ease and was very attentive to all her needs. Highly recommend!”
“Jenn was fantastic. She was able to get my pups in at the last minute after other accommodations fell through. I was nervous using Rover because I'd had bad experiences with a pet sitter a number of years ago, but Jenn put me right at ease. The dogs warmed to her very quickly and got plenty of exercise. She sent lots of photos, took great care of the dogs, and made my trip much less stressful. I would definitely recommend Jenn for your pet-sitting needs in the Conifer area. I will be using her services again with full confidence.”
“Tom was great with Jake. Jake is 13 years old with bad eyesight and hearing and really bad back legs. Tom was great taking care of Jake’s needs. We had lots of pictures with Jack looking like he owned the place. We’ll definitely use him again. Tracy”
“Maggie was amazing and treated my pup Paisley like a princess during her stay. I got frequent updates and Maggie was very responsive. I’ll definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Meera was so great with Luna!! I appreciated that she gave us daily updates with lots of pictures and videos. She also let us know how she was doing and if she was eating all of her food. It looks like Luna and their dog Zuko had a blast together! Zuko was extremely sweet and respectful and such a perfect playmate for Luna. We most definitely want to have Meera watch Luna again!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Empire
Alec was absolutely fantastic! He cared for our dog, Maggie, and our cat, Althea, in his home for two weeks while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, Alec was incredibly communicative. He kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was obvious that he genuinely cared about both of them. Maggie came home relaxed, happy, and clearly loved, and Althea was equally well taken care of. It’s not always easy to find someone you trust with both a dog and a cat for an extended stay, but Alec exceeded all of our expectations. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, caring, attentive, and keeps you informed every step of the way, I wholeheartedly recommend Alec. We would not hesitate to book with him again. Thank you, Alec, for taking such wonderful care of our furry family!
Alec was an amazing sitter for my dog Aurora. He was very communicative and professional. He was also very easy to coordinate details with and flexible during pick up and drop off. He made sure Aurora felt at home and got enough exercise. We would highly recommend Alec and will be reusing him in the future if needed.
Larissa was fantastic with our pup. She’s is an absolute dog lover and it shines through her words and actions. We’re very grateful for the way she loved on our dog, taking him on multiple walks and sending pictures of him cuddled up next to her. Would certainly use Larissa in the future.

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 Empire 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 Empire.
<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 Empire 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.
