“Wonderful grassy yard for dogs to romp in. Caring owners who share their house with the dogs. Dogs are well monitored for appropriate play, and get a time out if needed. We received daily photos of our dog enjoying her stay. We will definitely book a stay here again, and also doggie daycare!”
“Amber was absolutely amazing. She took in the boys last minute for the night. She was very communicative, sent photo updates and took care of our boys like her own. She even gave us treats for our cats that she didn’t watch! Highly recommended!”
“Dorothy was a wonderful dog sitter for Luka. Her active lifestyle allowed Luka to hike, run and ski. She enjoys hanging out with dogs and will be my go to sitter in the future.”
“Lindsay was amazing! She was very communicative and really made sure Olive was comfortable during her stay. Olive and her dog Uly got along great. I will definitely leave Olive with Lindsay and her family again!!”
“Tyler and Emily always take such great care of our fur baby. He always sends photos updates and has always been so reliable. We’ve used Tyler multiple times and appreciate his attentiveness to our dog while we’re away.”
“Mindy and her son did amazing with our dog, she updated us with how he was doing and sent fun videos and pictures the whole week he stood with her. She walked him and played with him. We definitely look forward to using her services again.”
“Judy took care of our pup Ellie for the first time and it went very well. We knew Judy was so kind when we met her and we knew that Ellie was in great hands. Judy sent us some thoughtful pics and updates halfway through Ellie's stay. When we picked up Ellie she seemed so comfortable and I really had to pry her to come home. A testament to how good she felt there Thanks so much Judy.”
“Asylan was a lifesaver! My plans for boarding Irvin during a vacation over New Years fell through, and she immediately got back to me. She continued to stay in communication throughout his stay, which made me feel reassured as I was many miles away. She was extremely accommodating and even came to pick Irvin up. I am very pleased with this experience, and will definitely reach out to Asylan again for Irvin's care.”
“Angela was absolutely amazing with Miss Harley! She did a wonderful job in communicating with me while I was out of town, she sent great photos of my dog enjoying her space and the other pups. Highly recommend!”
About: I have always believed that a house isn’t a home without the unconditional love of a dog. Throughout my life, my happiest moments have been defined by furry family members greeting me at the door with wet noses, endless kisses, and wagging tails. Yet, like any devoted pet parent, I know the familiar pang of guilt and anxiety that comes with walking out the door—whether it’s just for a quick daily errand, a long day at work, or a much-needed vacation. Our pets thrive on routine, familiarity, and love. Leaving them behind is often the hardest part of being a pet owner. Now that I am retired, I have dedicated my time and passion to help other dog lovers minimize or even solve this dilemma. Imagine a life where traveling or working doesn't mean leaving your pet only to face an empty house or even worse, confined to a kennel. Instead, you can step away with complete peace of mind, knowing your fur babies are in the hands of someone who will care for them like family and support the routines they are used to and comfortable with. I would love the opportunity to do this for you and your sweet friend(s). Please take a look at the services I offer, and contact me today so we can keep your pets happy, safe, and loved while you are away. I cannot imagine a more rewarding way to spend my retirement than caring for your beloved pups and kitties. To ensure the best possible care, I always request an initial meet-and-greet with you and your pet(s), ideally in their own comfortable environment. Once we establish that we are a great fit, we can begin scheduling regular visits. Over time, as your pet becomes completely comfortable with me, my home will also be open to them for overnight stays and day care should the need arise. I look forward to learning your specific routines to keep your pets safe and sound. Their time with me will be fully tailored to whatever your fur baby loves most—whether that means playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, enjoying mealtime, or taking trips to the park. Regardless of whether I am walking your dog or dropping in to check on your kitty, safety is always my top priority.
About: My name is Chelsea, I’m a lifelong dog lover and a mom of two boys who absolutely adore dogs! We previously had two dogs of our own for over six years, so I understand firsthand just how much love, attention, and responsibility goes into caring for our furry family members. While we’re not currently in a season where we can have dogs of our own, we would absolutely love the opportunity to care for yours! Dog sitting gives us the best of both worlds the joy of having dogs in our lives while giving pet owners peace of mind knowing their pups are being loved and cared for. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets, and my goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply keeping your pup company, I’d love to help make their time away from you a happy experience! 🐶🤍 As a mom of two boys and a business owner, I have a flexible routine that allows me to make time for the pets in my care! I love being able to incorporate walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention into our everyday lives. I also prioritize safe, supervised interactions with my children and always respect each owner’s preferences and instructions. My goal is to provide a loving, dependable environment where your pup feels like part of the family! 🐶🤍
“Daniel was friendly, helpful, flexible, and communicated with us promptly & sent lots of pics. Our dog had a great stay & must have felt safe, happy, and loved because he ate well. (Our pup will go off his feed when feeling out of sorts). Plenty of room for fun play inside the house and in the fenced backyard. We will definitely use Daniel for our Rover next time we are in the area.”
“Brooke was a great match for our dogs. She was very sweet and happy to welcome them into her family. She gave us regular updates and kept our minds at ease. She agreed to drop the dogs off at our home since we wouldn't be home until after midnight on our last night and when our door wouldn't unlock for her she took them back and watched them the rest of the night for us until we could come pick them up. She was super flexible and extra accommodating. We would definitely take our dogs back to her and recommend her to anyone, especially small dog owners.”

Connie does a great job, Her place is clean, safe, dog friendly and she has a huge, grassy fenced yard/play area. Also, she sends a daily dog photp update. I highly recommend her. In fact, I found her through a friend’s recommendation and she now sits for another friend’s two dogs after my recommendation. Thanks, Connie!
Amber took care of my 11-week-old puppy for the weekend, and I seriously couldn’t be happier with the level of care and communication! I was pretty nervous about leaving my puppy for the first time, especially with her being so young, but Amber made the entire experience so much easier! Not only did she do an amazing job keeping up with Marlo’s current routine, but she also went above and beyond with sending photos, messages, and updates throughout the weekend. It was so reassuring to know Marlo was happy, comfortable, and being so well taken care of! You can really tell Amber genuinely cares about the animals she watches, and that made all the difference for me. I was able to actually relax and enjoy my weekend without constantly worrying about my little girl. I’m so grateful for the care and attention she gave Marlo, and I would absolutely trust her to watch her again. I couldn’t recommend Amber enough!
Our senior dog and 3-year-old dog stayed with Whitney. She took great care of them, even changing the dressing on our senior dog’s toe wound and giving him meds. She was also flexible as our drop off and pick up times shifted. We will definitely rebook with her again if we are back in the area.
Becky was absolutely amazing with River! She took such great care of her and made me feel completely comfortable knowing River was in good hands. I would 100% book with Becky again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur baby!
Daniel was friendly, helpful, flexible, and communicated with us promptly & sent lots of pics. Our dog had a great stay & must have felt safe, happy, and loved because he ate well. (Our pup will go off his feed when feeling out of sorts). Plenty of room for fun play inside the house and in the fenced backyard. We will definitely use Daniel for our Rover next time we are in the area.

The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
97% of sitters in Fruitvale 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 Fruitvale 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 Fruitvale.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fruitvale. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Fruitvale 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
