“Zoey gets so excited she starts getting restless and whining to get out of the car to stay with Rachel! I feel confident she’s having a great time and get tons of photo updates throughout the day!”
“Josslyn was great. I highly recommend leaving your fur baby with her. She kept me updated with lots of pictures throughout the day and my girl seemed pretty happy. The whole time will definitely be seeing her again. Her pups are super adorable too and very well behaved.”
“I just couldn't be more pleased with my pup's 1st stay at Laurel's place. She is so kind and pleasant and has everything set up perfectly for her visiting dogs. Her family and her 2 dogs are equally welcoming. We will be back, I am sure!”
About: I just graduated from CSU with my Bachelors Degree in Animal Science and I have worked at the CSU Vet Teaching Hospital for almost two years now. I plan to further my schooling within the animal care fields either through vet school or a masters program! I have had pets of my own since I was very young and have been pet sitting for family and friends since I was 12. I have a dog and cat of my own that are just the sweetest and smartest boys. I love animals of all types and would be honored to spread that love to your pets! I'm currently awaiting entering a new position at the end of the summer, so my schedule is very open and I would love to fill that free time with animal care! I currently have my dog and cat in my home with me. My dog is a very friendly and loving black lab who gets along with anyone and my cat can take a minute to warm up to other animals but he comes around! I love a good, long walk around the neighborhood or even going to the dog park to get in some socialization! I am a big fan of cuddling on the couch or playing fetch until one of us drops!
“We needed someone to watch Roman, our English Bulldog while visiting Fort Collins. Leslie did an amazing job! She has very sweet kids and dog that will make your pup feel right at home. She sent pictures throughout the stay to keep me posted. I will definitely use her again! Roman is tired and happy after a great day playing.”
“I highly recommend, Jeana! From initial communication (clear communication and prompt friendly responses), to meet and greet, to day care (she even kindly sent pics), she was simply wonderful! I highly recommend her and will be booking a stay with her this summer. SO glad to have found her and thank you, Jeana!!!”
About: Weather it's long walks, play sessions, or cuddle time, we make sure your furry family member gets both physical excercise and emotional connection that they need. As work from home, I will have a time dedicated to your pet. I can take care of puppies under 1 year as well.. Because I work from home throughout most days, your dog will never feel lonely or overlooked. I will be able to provide regular attention, potty breaks and play sessions. I will follow your dog/cats schedule for feeding, walks and medication, so they feel secure and cared for. I can also provide photos and messages so you can see how happy and relaxed your furry friend is.
About: I've been a proud dog mom for over 17 years and have shared my home with as many as three wonderful pups at once. My experience includes caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies who are still learning the ropes to senior dogs who need a little extra patience, attention, and specialized care. Since I work from home, I'm able to provide consistent supervision, reinforce training routines, and accommodate frequent potty breaks or extra exercise. I'm also comfortable administering oral medications and will happily follow your dog's regular schedule to help them feel safe, happy, and at home while you're away. I work full-time from home, which means your dog will enjoy plenty of companionship, attention, and supervised outdoor play throughout the day. Whether it's frequent potty breaks, playtime in the yard, walks around the neighborhood, or relaxing indoors, I'll make sure your pup feels comfortable and well cared for. I'm available for both weekday and weekend bookings and look forward to giving your dog a safe, loving home while you're away. I have a fully fenced yard in a wonderful, quiet neighborhood where dogs have plenty of room to safely run, play, and explore. Your pup will also have the company of my friendly 3½-year-old retriever mix, who loves making new furry friends and is always happy to share toys, playtime, or simply relax alongside another dog. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and fun home-away-from-home where your dog will receive lots of attention, exercise, and affection.
“Thank you for letting Scout come over for a doggie daycare session - this was a good trial prior to his boarding appt. We appreciate your patience with him and helping him settle (as he can be anxious). And I'm sure Scout loved his walk - lots of new smells! Thank you for opening your home to him.”
“Sarah, her family, and her dog Tessa are all so kind! She was able to meet the needs of my dog with separation anxiety, and able to accommodate him when my plans changed close to a holiday. Additionally, she was very flexible as I was figuring out my return plans. Her kids are gentle with dogs, her backyard is spacious, and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her when I went out of town. Thank you Sarah!”
“Brenda took great care of our lab, Josie! She sent us pictures during the day and Josie came home a happy girl. We will definitely book with Brenda in the future!”
“I know Asher feels comfortable with you (and not anxious) when he poops on your walks with him! 😄 he doesn’t do that for everyone so to me that is a great sign!! 😍😍”
“I highly recommend Sydney to watch your furbabies! Sydney was very communicative and accommodating when I was in need of someone to watch Marley at the very last minute. I would be more than happy to have Sydney watch Marley again in the future!”

“Kaitlyn took great care of my dog. There were a lot of pictures and updates throughout the day. Kaitlyn also communicated well before the booking, making sure Aloy would be comfortable in her care. This is your sign to book with Kaitlyn if you’re looking for someone in Fort Collins to watch your puppy.”
“Elizabeth and will were great with our dog! We haven’t left our dog with anyone but family since before the pandemic. We had to travel to a funeral and so it was kind of a hectic time.

Josslyn was great. I highly recommend leaving your fur baby with her. She kept me updated with lots of pictures throughout the day and my girl seemed pretty happy. The whole time will definitely be seeing her again. Her pups are super adorable too and very well behaved.
I cannot recommend Natasha enough. I reached out last minute in full panic mode, and she not only squeezed me in but also made time for a same day meet and greet. She turned what could have been a disaster into the smoothest experience ever. My dog Boo was excited to go back to her, which says everything. She clearly understood his needs, made him feel at home, and gave me total peace of mind while I was at work. She also sent photos and videos of Boo throughout the day, and whenever I checked in to see how he was doing, she was quick to respond. That level of care and communication meant so much. If you're looking for someone kind, responsive, flexible, and genuinely great with dogs, book her immediately. She went above and beyond for us, and I am so grateful.
Sarah did a great job with our active dog. Juju had a great time and was happily worn out when she got home. Sarah was very accommodating as I had to slightly change the time frame a day or two before our visit. Juju can’t wait to spend more time with Sarah and her new friend Tessa!
Alia took great care of our puppy and gave her lots of play time outside. Getting photos of our pup during her stay gave us assurance that she was in good hands and having loads of fun while we were away. Our pup came home happy and ready for a nice long nap. We’ll definitely be booking with Alia again! ~ Ashlyn & Ben
Kaitlyn took great care of my dog. There were a lot of pictures and updates throughout the day. Kaitlyn also communicated well before the booking, making sure Aloy would be comfortable in her care. This is your sign to book with Kaitlyn if you’re looking for someone in Fort Collins to watch your puppy.
Kelsey was great!! She met us at the garage and brought us into her backyard so EJ could run. She sent pics of him playing and resting comfortably in her home. She was also flexible since we were drinking from Pueblo and weren’t quite sure of our time. EJ was with her all day and he seemed to enjoy himself.
My family and I are so thankful to have met Philip and his partner Janelle! They were everything we hope for in pet sitters: kind, compassionate, and great communicators. It was obvious that our dog Sedona was exercised and well cared for during her stay at their house. We will absolutely be booking with them again!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Fort Collins commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 589 sitters in Fort Collins, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
