“Laurel and her family took great care of our dog! We received daily pics and knew he was getting lots of love, attention and playtime with their dogs! We will definitely rebook with laurel for future needs!”
“Casey and her family were so amazing! They were incredibly flexible, very responsive to any messages, and I knew our fur babies were in great hands. We loved the picture updates and we could tell how much fun Koozie and Nola were having when we arrived to pick them up!”
“Leesa was wonderful! She accepted our request very last minute and was happy to meet our anxious dog’s needs. We felt really great about leaving our dog with Leesa and would absolutely book her again!”
“Andrea was wonderful with Ruby during her recent stay. She has a fabulous fenced backyard that gave Ruby plenty of space to run and play, which was such a bonus. Communication was excellent from start to finish — consistent updates, quick responses, and a clear sense that Ruby was in good hands. Andrea clearly has solid experience with dogs, and it showed in how comfortable and happy Ruby was when we picked her up. We’d gladly book with her again.”
“Annie and Israel were great with our rescue dog on his long visit! They were very accommodating and let us do a daycare visit to see how he would integrate into their home for a day before we left on a long trip. Throughout each visit we were given plenty of updates and photos, and were responsive when we checked in to see how he was doing. They take great care of their pet guests and ensure a safe environment with supervision and gates throughout the house, which was very thoughtful. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our dog was well taken care of! We would use their services again.”
“As always, Hanky had a great time. Andrea sends daily videos and photos to let us know that our little guy is doing great. He’s very slow to become comfortable around people outside of our household but we know that he feels safe with her.”
“Travis and his family are the best. This was my second time having them watch my dog Cali and I so appreciated the peace of mind. He’s communicative, responsible, and treats our dog like his own. Highly recommend booking with him. 10/10! 😀”
“Jeremy and his wife did AMAZING! Pictures were sent, updates made. Didn't mind answering questions and providing updates. Cared for my pug and large lab mix like their own ☺️”
“Sara was an absolute gem!! She communicated so well and her little Waffle was the best playmate for our pup. They made it a fun experience for our dog. Excellent care!!!!!”

“Stephanie and Jennifer were great! They sent pictures and updates for us while on vacation. We really appreciated the communication. We had no doubt our dog was having fun while we were gone. We will definitely be returning customers!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care Lura gave my Pomeranian, Elsa. From drop-off to pick-up, the team was attentive, warm, and clearly experienced with small breeds. Elsa came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for you could tell she'd been genuinely loved, not just looked after. Communication throughout her stay was excellent, and it gave me real peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Highly recommend Lura to any pet parent looking for a place that treats their dog like family.”
“Haley and David took great care of my 2 dogs. In the pictures that were sent, I could tell they were having fun. Haley was great about keeping in touch and responded quickly to texts.”
“Our Annie could not have been in better care. Walks & playing with her new buddies. Communication was excellent, with photos and info daily. Would highly recommend Josslyn Z to provide care for your pooch!”
About: I am an experienced dog walker, boatder and sitter. I am a dog lover and pet parent since my childhood on a ranch. I have never been without a dog. My dogs are a part of my family. I work from home, so your dog will have almost constant companionship. I free feed my dogs but can accommodate other schedules or feeding styles. I have a good sized dog door that most dogs can fit through and a large yard. The dogs are welcome to go out any time they need. Plus my dogs will always be good company for any visiting dogs.
“Marina and Conner were so patient with our pet who was a bit more than they bargained for. But it allowed us to have a worry free vacation. We so appreciated their updates and feedback. Thank you so much!”
“Nichole was a fantastic dog sitter for our girl, Emery. She was super communicative throughout, and sent us videos and pictures every day to keep us updated. Emery seemed happy, comfortable, and at ease almost immediately when meeting Nichole, and throughout her stay. I can't recommend Nichole enough, and can definitely recommend her!”

Zoe was great! She made the whole process super easy, and we felt really comfortable leaving Ranger with her. Ranger and Bodie hit it off right away, which made us feel even better about everything. It was nice knowing Ranger was in good hands while we were away. We’d definitely book with Zoe again!
Mikey is a great guy. He took wonderful care of my guy Maverick and based off the photos I got, I'd say they had a lot of fun. He asked really great questions and made sure that he was fully prepped for top tier care of my baby. I highly recommend booking with him if he has open availability. 😁😁
Stacey is incredible! She is an animal person through and through. Our pup is a very sensitive, anxious, at times challenging boy with lots of quirks-- and she is amazing at making him feel comfortable and safe. He got to truly be on vacation with Stacey! We are so incredibly grateful for her!!
Kayla has taken care of my 11-year-old Lab, Runner, twice while I’ve been traveling, and she has been wonderful with him. She is incredibly caring, patient, and accommodating to his needs as an older dog. The best recommendation really comes from Runner himself, he is always happy and excited to go to Kayla’s house! He also gets along great with her pup, Waffles, and is always excited to see him and play together. It gives me great peace of mind knowing Runner is somewhere he feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while I’m away. I would absolutely recommend Kayla to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog with genuine care and affection.
Natasha is an amazing sitter and Gado got lots of bonus attention and love from her sweet children. He was in heaven playing in her back yard, and we got lots of updates from his walks and interactions with the family. I appreciated her experience and guidance. Gado wants another play date soon!
Are mini Bernie doodle, Bella, is always super excited to see Michael. He is a really great dog buddy. Without fail, he sends pics through the day to let you know how everything‘s going we really appreciate Michaels work and, without any reservation, recommend him to look after your pet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Fort Collins is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $80 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 774 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Fort Collins. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% of sitters in Fort Collins can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Fort Collins 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 Fort Collins.
<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 Fort Collins 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.
