“Five stars isn’t enough, so let me throw in some extras! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I adopted a dog about two weeks ago and had a sudden unexpected work trip come up. I was SO upset about having to interrupt my new dog’s routine and I was so worried she’d feel scared or abandoned staying someplace new so soon. Turns out that she was having too much fun at Sherry and Jason’s to even think about being upset all weekend! Sherry and Jason wowed me (AND my snooty professional dog trainer sister 😂) with their extensive knowledge of dog care, training, and behavior. Their home and their facilities are BEAUTIFUL and spotless. They were extremely accommodating, friendly, communicative, and clearly dogs ADORE them. I seriously can’t recommend them enough!!!”

“Sirius and Willow stayed with Rikki for an extended weekend when we went out of town. Rikki sent us pictures and videos daily keeping us updated on the dogs stay and their well-being. They were happy, safe, and comfortable playing with her pups and getting lots of attention! We will definitely be going back to Rikki for future trips since the dogs did so well with her ❤️ Thanks again!!”

“This was my first time using this service. It was a last minute need and Tami was very accommodating and kind. I could not have asked for a better person, home or experience for my little Bella. Tami went above and beyond. Got lots of updates, photos ect. Her home is a good fit, her 2 little fur babies are great. Again a person could not want or expect more.”

About: Dogs are part of my everyday life, and I have hands-on experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, senior dogs, and multi-dog households. I’m comfortable adjusting care to the individual dog rather than expecting every dog to fit the same routine. I’m experienced with puppy care, including frequent potty breaks, crate routines, feeding schedules, supervision, and reinforcing the training owners are already working on. I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs that may need a slower pace, extra patience, more frequent breaks, or a very consistent routine. I can administer medications and give injections when provided with clear instructions. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding and medication schedules and understand how important consistency can be for dogs that require ongoing care. I pay close attention to changes in appetite, energy, bathroom habits, behavior, and overall comfort. If something seems unusual, I don’t brush it off. My goal is for owners to come home to a dog who has been safe, comfortable, and cared for according to their normal routine. I currently work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be present throughout the day. I can easily accommodate regular potty breaks, walks, feeding schedules, medications, playtime, and extra attention for dogs that do better with more frequent supervision. Because I’m home much of the day, pets are not typically left alone for long stretches. I’m also able to adjust my routine around puppies, senior dogs, or pets that need a more structured schedule. Safety and routine come first. In my home, dogs are supervised, doors and gates are checked carefully, and introductions to other dogs are handled slowly rather than assuming every dog will immediately get along. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and I can separate dogs for feeding, rest, or quiet time when needed. I follow each owner’s instructions for meals, medications, crate routines, walks, sleeping arrangements, and house rules so their dog’s routine stays as familiar as possible. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs that need medications or injections. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home. I keep doors and gates secure, follow the care instructions provided, clean up after the pet, and pay attention to changes in behavior, appetite, bathroom habits, or comfort. If something seems unusual, I communicate with the owner rather than guessing.

“Laura and Michael truly love dogs! Our anxious girl who usually takes a while to warm up was on her back asking for belly rubs within 15 minutes of meeting them! She was spoiled and well taken care of while we were on vacation - we will for sure reach out to check on availability the next time we're traveling without our pup!”

About: **Discount available for longer stays** I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and worked with animals in shelters as well as fostered animals for years. I have experience with puppies, seniors, hyper dogs, shy dogs, and everything in between! I have extensive experience with cats and I'm comfortable administering medicine as well. I have 2 cats and they stay in a separate room during boarding so your pet will have their own space. I work from home so I’m always available. Your pet will have a lot of attention and get bathroom breaks every couple hours. I’m available for boarding as well as pet sitting in your home. I have a fenced in yard and a lot of space in my home. I have a guest room with a guest bathroom attached for cat boarding or if your pet prefers to have their own space. I work from home so I'm able to let them out into the yard or take them out for walks as much as they need.

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 Florence home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Florence.

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 Florence 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.

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.
