“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Sir Wayne and little Miss Yuki!!!! I can tell they were very much loved during their visit. They felt comfortable enough to give kisses and play! I’m just so grateful you were able to help and on such short notice. You guys are the best! And your dogs too were such good playmates for my fur balls of energy.”
“My Vizsla was immediately at ease with Sarah and Darren. So comforting to know she was in loving hands. Will definitely book again!! Thanks, Sarah and Darren !!”
“Toph enjoyed another stay and was well-cared for. She was happy to visit again and play with Trooper and Ronin. Deanna sent lots of updates and made an effort to keep Toph comfortable and engaged.”
“David and Laura have been 5 star dog sitters while we have been out of town. This time, David and Laura were 5 star doggie daycare for our pup. We so appreciate all they do for our pup and all they do to keep us updated with photos and videos.”
“Carolina has been so wonderful both times she has had Remi and she is now my go to pet sitter! She sends a lot of pictures, and updates me throughout the day. She has been super accommodating, and I can tell she really has a love for dogs! I feel very confident about Remi spending time in Carolina’s home.”
About: At 27 years old, I've had experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from rambunctious puppies who need lots of patience and playtime, to energetic large breeds, to sweet senior dogs who require a little extra care and comfort. I know that every dog is unique, and I strive to make each pet feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. Whether your pup loves long walks, endless games of fetch, or simply wants a cozy companion to relax with, I'm happy to tailor my care to their individual needs and routine. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I'd love the opportunity to provide them with a safe, fun, and caring experience. I can't wait to meet you and your pup! Meet and Greets before booking a service are welcome! ☺️ As a flight attendant, my schedule varies from week to week, but I often have multiple consecutive days off that allow me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I keep my Rover calendar updated so you'll always see my current availability. When I commit to a booking, you can count on me to provide dependable care, regular updates, and lots of attention for your pet. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always take the time to learn about each dog's routine, personality, preferences, and any medical or behavioral needs before their stay. I carefully follow all owner instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special care requirements.
“Melody was sweet to our pups! She gave them treats throughout the day, cuddled with them, and took them on a walk! She gave us frequent updates which I appreciate and loved to see!”
“Breanne and her family are amazing! Our pup loves playing with her dogs, and they are excited to see each other when we drop off. The daily pictures are also a treat to receive.”
“Dawn & Rob are awesome!! They are so kind and caring and you can tell how much they love dogs. My pup was so excited to spend the day with them! Very responsive and just wonderful people. Would highly recommend them to anyone! Thanks!!”
About: Having pets myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your beloved companions. I remember taking my own dogs to kennels and feeling as if they spent most of their time waiting for me to return. When I discovered Rover, I loved the idea that pet parents could find a caring, home-based alternative—either at a sitter’s home or in their own familiar environment. As a Rover sitter, I care for pets and homes exactly as I hope someone would care for mine. I have an established clientele of pups I care for in my home (since 2019) and have recently begun to enjoy in-home sitting as well, bringing the same dedication and attention to detail your pet deserves in their own home. I am a very clean person, respectful of your space, and I treat every pet as if they were my own, always seeking detailed instructions to ensure your pet’s needs and routines are thoroughly met. I’m also excited to share that I am now offering dog walking services and drop-in visits, providing pups with daily exercise, stimulation, and companionship—perfect for busy pet parents who want their dogs to stay happy and healthy even on their busiest days. I work full-time 100% remote so I have the flexibility to care for your pets while I am working. I do like to head home for a few hours a day if house sitting to be with my family. My husband cares for our pups who are visiting and our own, if I'm away. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable environment where they can follow their usual routines, including feeding, exercise, and playtime, while ensuring they have access to fresh water and cozy resting spots. In a client’s home, I maintain the pet’s familiar surroundings, adhere closely to the owner’s instructions on diet, medication, and daily habits, and give regular updates to ensure peace of mind. Whether at my place or the client’s, I prioritize the pet’s well-being, safety, and happiness by giving them attentive, loving care tailored to their needs.
“My pup had an absolutely wonderful stay for 4 days, she came home super happy and tired out each day. They were extremely accommodating and available on short notice. 10/10 would rebook”
“Julie is great! She was flexible with picking up Tater from my neighbor’s house for walks/day care when we were out of town and he had a great time at her house with her pups.”
“Nathan and Brooke were fantastic dog sitters. They took great care of Clifford all week during day care and clearly treated him like their own. He was happy, well cared for, and excited to see them each day. We really appreciated the updates and the peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, caring sitters.”
About: I have had dogs the majority of my life and absolutely adore them. They bring so much unconditional love to our lives that it is impossible not to love them! I currently work from home so I am always here for your dog(s) during the day. My schedule at work is designed to allow me to take dogs out every two hours if they aren't sure of or can't use a dog door. I will get all viable information from the pawrent so I know exactly what is needed for the pet such as feedings, walks, medications, training or other things.
“Heather was amazing with my puppy! She is so warm and caring, and it was obvious how much she loves dogs. She sent beautiful pictures during the stay and I loved seeing how happy my puppy was. I will definitely be booking with Heather again!”
About: What sets me apart is the amount of time and attention your pet gets. Since I work from home, your dog isn’t left alone for long stretches. They get consistent supervision, interaction, and care throughout the day. I’m great at adapting to each dog’s needs, whether that’s high energy play, sticking to a strict routine, or giving extra patience and comfort to shy or anxious pets. As a remote worker, I’m home most of the day and able to give pets consistent care and attention. I have a flexible schedule, which means more walks, more playtime, and less time your pet is left alone. I truly love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I stick closely to their usual routine,feeding schedules, walks, and any specific instructions you provide. Since I work from home, they get lots of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed in a calm environment.
“Stellina & Russell are always easy to work with and accommodating on short notice. It's great to know the dogs will be looked after and loved as if they were in my own home.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gateway
Susan took wonderful care of my dog, Niko! He came home absolutely pooped at the end of the day, which tells me he had such a fun and active time at her place. It was clear he was very well looked after. We would absolutely book with her again and will definitely be repeat clients!
Jessica was absolutely amazing with Eila! Eila spent a lot of time outdoors and played really well with her dog too :) She came home very tired at night too which was definitely a perk. She sent lots of photos throughout the day and we really felt that she was in great hands! She was also very flexible and accommodating with our busy and unpredictable schedules. Would definitely use her services again :)
My dogs had a great time staying with Lucia (and Luis) for daycare! Lucia sent midday updates and photos, took the dogs on walks, and they loved playing in the nice fenced yard. My dogs were comfortable from the very first visit, and I’m so happy I found Lucia!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Gateway on Rover is $33.3 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Gateway 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 4,257 sitters in Gateway, 85% 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.
